Chapter 367: Still let me come
Another guy who has the same idea as Murdoch, Eric feels very happy. At this time, what he needs most is a lot of cash. Disney is coming to the door, even if he is not happy with Michael Eisner. Eric is not going to refuse either.
On the surface, however, Eric asked without hesitation: "Is there any money in Disney?"
Michael Eisner's face suddenly became a bit unsightly. The summer filed by Disney's Bo Wei has released four movies, except for an obscure little production that is distributed by other production companies. The $30 million big production, in addition to the previously raging "Firebird Attack" and "Rocket Expert", at the end of June, Disney also released a "Little Konjac", this film is related to Spielberg Abelin Film Co., Ltd. co-produced a story about a small town being invaded by a mutant spider. The film has been released for the third week, with a total box office of only over 30 million.
Three film production costs plus Xuanfa investment, Disney's summer file loss has exceeded 100 million US dollars, and "Ghosts are not released" is the joint release of Disney and Fireflies, because no investment, Disney can only get 10% The distribution of the distribution, the follow-up video tape income is even more do not think about it, so "people are not feeling" in accordance with the rules of the past life, it is difficult to make up for Disney's losses, you can imagine, Disney's financial report at the end of the year will be very ugly.
"Eric, you don't have to worry about it. If you need money, I can lend you $100 million," Michael Eisner said faintly.
"I am very anxious, it will be within ten days," Eric added.
Michael Eisner suppressed the joy of the eyes and said: "No problem. But Eric, since you want to get the money within ten days, then you must repay the money within three months, otherwise if……"
"The stake in fireflies?" Eric took the initiative.
Michael Eisner nodded. "My request is the same as Mr. Murdoch. For $100 million, it is calculated at 10%."
"Yes," Eric said without hesitation, according to the plan that was made before, Eric had planned to close within three months and reached an agreement. Eric’s thoughts turned and soon revealed a faint smirk: “Mr. Eisner, if you want to play, this is a good opportunity.”
Michael Eisner shook his head: "Sorry, Eric. I never participated in this gamble without any certainty."
"In fact, I am the same," Eric turned to look at the big screen, and said in his heart.
The original plan to participate in the second day of the premiere, Eric intends to return to New York, but what happened next made him have to stay in Los Angeles for a few more days.
Perhaps hearing news from Fox or Disney, the seven major film company executives have found Eric to become a good boy, even the broken MGM sent 50 million dollars, Eric will be all . Of course, he also mortgaged more than 50% of the fireflies for this, except for half a year after the repayment date negotiated with Murdoch. The other companies have borrowed for a maximum of three months. Warner even proposed a two-month repayment period, but Warner also paid the most money, reaching 150 million. Eric did not hesitate to accept it.
A few days later, Eric returned to New York. The results of the heavyweight film match between "Die Hard 2" and "People's Ghosts" were also officially released.
"Die Hard Long Wei 2" won the $24 million box office in the first three days because of the popularity of the first one. The "Ghosts and Ghosts" are not as unconcerned as they were in the past, but they suddenly became chilly. This version of "The Ghosts Are Not Ghosted" has reached the level that this film company can do in this era. To the limit.
therefore. In the first three days of the first week, "Ghosts and Ghosts" also took away $27 million in box office while taking away numerous tears from fans. After the results were released, the box office statistics agency expected that the first week of the two films will exceed the $40 million mark. Before that, the "Full Memories" with the highest box office in the first week of the 1990 summer file was only 36 million. In the week, the two films released at the same time all exceeded the $40 million box office. This amazing result also made many look forward to the two films. The spectators who lost both of them lost their eyes.
At this time, Eric did not pay attention to the movie.
In the sixty Soho hotel suites on Sixth Avenue, Chris, who has found more than $500 million in accounts, is looking at Eric. He did not tell Jeffrey these days. Jeffrey is already worried enough. If the old man knows that Eric has mortgaged more than 50% of the fireflies, it is estimated to be mad.
"Eric, I thought you were just a fever, now I think you are really crazy."
"Chris, don't worry, even if the money is lost, I won't lose control of fireflies. I have let Caroline apply for the loan with my remaining 20% of the shares. The loan within three months." I can definitely do it, and I can't lose it. So, in the end, I will definitely be able to redeem enough shares and still maintain the absolute holding status of Firefly," Eric carefully explained the original thoughts. .
"You know, I am not talking about this, Eric, I think you have completely lost your mind, let it go, now it is too late, you see, for more than ten days, we have invested 120 million in funds, but now There isn't much profit on the account. Imagine if Saddam would get enough benefits from Kuwait as he used to swindle other small Middle Eastern countries and then succumb to it, the price of crude oil would fall sharply, as long as it fell by nearly 10%, Eric, As long as 10%, all the funds in your account will be lost."
Eric snorted and licked his hair: "Chris, why can't you have a little confidence in me?"
"Because this is a very real world, no one knows what will happen in the future. Eric, I don't allow you to come again. I won't move this $500 million if you have to buy it." Then I will quit now."
Eric quieted down, and his relaxed expression disappeared. He silently said nothing for a long time before he whispered to Chris: "Before, can you help me find an acquaintance? You know, I don't have any connections on Wall Street?"
Chris groaned and sighed, and stood up and walked out of the hotel room.
Eric didn't get up and sent, he would always sit quietly beside Drew in his arms, put his head on his knees, and looked down at Xiao Nizi's smooth face: "Taro, if one day I let You are disappointed, will you be sad?"
Xiao Nizi’s cat stunned at Eric’s palm and shook his head: “No.”
"But I made Chris sad. In this world, there are not many people who really care about me. Jeffrey and Chris are two."
"At least there is me," Drew said, putting Eric's palm on his baby's face and solemnly saying.
The next day, Eric got up early in the morning, some mechanically brushed his face and washed breakfast, walked to the office of the operator's studio, and saw Chris's figure at a glance. He rarely felt that his eyes were wet.
"I don't worry, let me come," Chris whispered.
Eric stepped forward to give Chris a bear hug until Chris was too angry to let go. (To be continued)
