Hollywood Starts with Animation

For the past few days, Zhu Ke, who has been busy expanding the company's territory for Jinshuguang Entertainment Group, was rejected by the old guy, but it was not without the slightest gain.

White Castle Press;

smile press;

These two publishing houses were under the control of Zhu Ke.

White Castle Publishing House is a newly established publishing house with only 6 years of history, but the founder of the publishing house, Mr. Kim Codos, has worked in Random House for more than 20 years and has an extremely broad network of contacts.

In just 6 years, it has grown from nothing, and developed White Castle Publishing House into a comprehensive book publishing house engaged in economics, and celebrity biographies.

It's one of the best for small publishing houses!

In California, Nevada, Idaho, Washington, Oregon and other West Coast regions of the United States, it has complete distribution channels, and has a good cooperative relationship with many well-known bookstores and convenience retail stores;

However......

There are unpredictable situations in the sky, and people have good fortune and good fortune.

Mr. Kim Cordos, the founder of White Castle Press, died at work early last month due to a myocardial infarction.

As a result, Mrs. Jincordos, who was not good at business, had to reluctantly sell her husband's publishing house.

$7.8 million!

That's right, Zucker used $9 million, far below the market price, to win White Castle Press, the leader among small publishing houses.

Don't say that Zhu Ke has a dark heart and bullies orphans and widows.

In fact, not long after the death of Jincordos, several authors who had long-term cooperative relations with White Castle were poached by other publishing houses. As a result, the price will naturally drop a lot.

Smile Press, it's different.

Smile Publishing House, located in New York, is the seventh-ranked publishing house in New York State. Looking at the publishing industry in the United States, it is also among the top 30 large and medium-sized publishing houses.

Especially in terms of recreational books and children's books, it can be said to be the top three existences!

"This is great,

My "Harry Potter" series of books need this type of publishing house the most. " Zucker smiled.

63 million!

Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group paid 63 million US dollars in three installments and won the well-known smile publishing house in one fell swoop.

Well, the payment accounts of the two publishing houses are all accounts of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group.

In the past year, the income of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group is not cheap!

The "America's Got Talent" launched by the subsidiary UPN TV network brought in nearly 200 million US dollars in profits;

The subsidiary Wald Pictures, which produced "Deadly Curve 1", "Human Clearance Project", and "The Sixth Sense of Supernatural", has created a profit of more than 250 million US dollars, and there are still many outstanding balances. clear;

What's more, as for "Titanic", which is now sweeping the world, Wald Pictures also accounts for 25% of the global box office share, including some peripheral profits.

It is no exaggeration to say that Jin Shuguang Group is really rich now!

......

Golden Dawn Entertainment Group.

CEO Victor solemnly said: "boss, smile publishing house is a comprehensive publishing group, especially in children's books and recreational books, it is indeed very advantageous, and has a complete book distribution channel covering North America."

"White Castle Press, although its strength is a little weaker, it is a relatively good reinforcement for the strategic layout of our publishing house."

"So now, we still lack professional publishers in disciplines."

Hearing this, Zu Ke frowned immediately.

The publishing subsidiary of the Entertainment Group also needs professional publishers for disciplines. Zu Ke doesn't understand this.

This has nothing to do with the entertainment industry!

"Boss, your thinking is largely limited by the Eastern way of thinking." Victor said solemnly.

Zucker nodded.

Zhu Ke was from the Great Celestial Dynasty in his last life. Even after more than two years, he would still be more or less affected by his inherent thinking in terms of thinking patterns. This is something that comes from his bones and cannot be easily changed.

Moreover, Zhu Ke likes the philosophy and ideas of the East. This is something that the executives of the whole company know.

"Ha ha!"

Victor smiled and said, "Boss, in America, North America, and Western countries, if a publishing house does not have professional books on disciplines, it will always belong to a second-rate company. This is why Smile Publishing House is obviously not weak, but its market value is The reason it has been low.”

"It's not high enough!"

No matter what type of publishing house it is, in the final analysis it belongs to the type of education!

Even those entertainment, comic book publishers.

The issue of education is a topic that citizens of all countries in the world attach great importance to. This extends to the publishing houses of Western countries, and there will be a status quo.

——If you don’t have a professional subject publisher, you will never be a first-class!

......

Do it when you think of it!

This is Zucker's usual code of conduct.

For the first time, Zhu Ke commissioned professionals to collect publishing houses with professional books on subjects.

The most preferred target is of course the publishers of major universities in the United States. Looking at the world, Stanford, Harvard, Princeton and other university presses are all well-known existences.

However, Zucker knows a fact!

That is you can't buy them at all!

Stanford, Harvard, Princeton and other universities, which one is short of money?

Everyone is rich!

Every year, only the money donated by outstanding graduates and alumni, the money donated by major companies, and the money donated by various foundations is a very large number.

"I remember this guy, Pan Shiyi, who donated 100 million US dollars to Harvard, but he didn't withdraw a dime for domestic colleges and universities. This matter has been complained by many netizens on the Internet."

Zucker couldn't help thinking of this.

Therefore, Zucker will target those publishing houses that are not the university's own publishing house, but have good relations with the major universities.

Three days later...

Target locked!

"Boss, Duke Brown Bear Press is a long-established publishing house founded in 1928 by Troy Bislater, a distinguished professor of psychology at Columbia University."

"The scope of its publications involves professional publishers in medicine, biology, computer, economics, law, physics, mathematics, psychology, chemistry, history, sociology, environmental science, philosophy, linguistics, geography and other disciplines."

"The URBT magazine it published, in America in the 1980s, was a very high-quality journal."

"At its peak, it had 1,850 employees and a market value of $700 million!"

Although Alexander is a second-generation immigrant of Russian descent, you can't deny his professionalism. In a short period of time, he was introduced to Zucker like a family.

"what about now?"

Zucker smiled.

Hearing this, Alexander shook his head and said, "The heir of the Bislater family is a complete prodigal. Gambling and drug use are standard. When he was in college, he was involved in fights, resulting in many injuries and hospitalization, and one death. , was expelled from school and served three years in prison."

"His father, Buckinfield Bislet, a famous real estate tycoon in San Francisco, had a heart attack himself, and was pissed to death because of this incident."

"In less than ten years, the prodigal little Bislater has lost nearly $1 billion in net worth, and now he is heavily in debt. He has no choice but to list the Duke of Brown Bear Press for sale."

The voice fell.

Zucker also personally looked through the materials of the Duke Brown Bear Press and found that it has a good cooperative relationship with major universities in the United States, as well as many well-known universities in Europe and Asia.

Well, exactly what Zucker wanted.

"In a word, I want it!"

$70 million!

Yes, its scale and annual profit are far lower than Smile Publishing House, less than one-tenth, but its market value is much higher than Smile Publishing House.

This is the advantage of being high!
