Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 483 Investment

The most core part of Charlotte's assets is naturally Spectre Studio.

Charlotte occupies nearly 90% of the shares in this studio that he is about to reorganize into a formal company, which can be said to be his voice.

Spectre Studio does not have many fixed assets, but the copyrights to the three movies "The Sixth Sense", "Hell Detective" and "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" alone are already very valuable.

These copyrights are enough to continue to bring revenue to the studio for many years.

What's more, the copyright for "Silver Linings Playbook," Charlotte's only romantic movie, is also in the name of Spectre Studios.

Although the box office performance of this movie is not as exaggerated as the other three movies, the production cost is also low, and there are no other investors to share the profits, so the overall income is actually good.

In fact, Charlotte herself did not make much less money on this movie than on several other movies.

In particular, the film is popular on the DVD and video rental markets.

On the one hand, this is because this movie has three Oscar nominations for Best Actor and Best Director and is quite popular among some Austrian movie lovers;

On the other hand, it's because the love in this romance film was still extremely weird and trendy at the end of the 20th century - after all, it's still rare to see a movie showing the love between two people with mental disorders.

Many people still like this movie because of its joyful plot.

In particular, this is the only movie that Charlotte has appeared in as an actor. Some of his biggest fans also highly praise this movie.

In short, due to various factors, "Silver Linings Playbook" has also provided a lot of income for Spectre Studio...

In addition to the rights to these four movies, Spectre Studio also has some fixed assets.

Among them, the two largest ones are a small office building on South Beauvais Street in Los Angeles, and the other is the "Hogwarts" castle in England.

Add these elements together, plus the studio’s reputation for never failing to produce anything—

It can be said that if it were listed, the market value of Spectre Studio alone would exceed US$100 million.

However, Charlotte currently has no such plan, so the valuation of Spectre Studio's overall assets is on the low side.

*******

In addition to the core of the studio, Charlotte also has a lot of stocks in her hands.

In this regard, Charlotte, as a time traveler, is ultimately unavoidable——

After all, following the pace of the times, who would give up on a business that is almost guaranteed to make a profit?

At least, he purchased some stocks of companies such as Cisco and Oracle as retail investors.

However, the current focus of Charlotte's investment is still on Apple and imax.

There is no way, although Charlotte knows the general trend of the future, but in recent years, the trend of Nasdaq's Internet technology stocks strengthening, even people who do not know the general trend can feel it instinctively.

In this case, although he can make money by buying stocks of ordinary Internet technology companies, it will not allow him to make too much.

On the other hand, after Apple entered the 1990s, its closed computer system was broken by the compatibility faction represented by Microsoft, and its stock price continued to decline. On the contrary, it was more in line with Charlotte's idea of ​​​​buying the dip and waiting for a rebound.

After all, he comes from the future, but he knows very well what kind of abnormality this company will develop after Steve Jobs staged the return of the king and returned to Apple.

Therefore, since 1996, when he had spare money in his hands, he has been gradually buying Apple stocks. Although it is not much every time, it is better to persevere.

By 1997, when Jobs returned to Apple, Apple's stock price rebounded and Charlotte had already made a small fortune.

Now, as Jobs gradually brings Apple back on track, the company's stock price continues to rise, and Charlotte's net worth has also increased a lot.

——Of course, if Apple wants to become the "golden apple" in the future, it is estimated that it will have to wait for several years, until the iPhone is officially launched. But Charlotte has made up her mind to hold it long-term and wait for appreciation.

If there is a chance, he may continue to buy some stocks...

As for investing in imax, it is related to Charlotte’s future plans——

You know, the influence and market value of the company imax are completely incomparable to Apple.

——After all, the founder of the latter is a person who "lives to change the world."

However, when it comes to the film industry, the company IMAX has a great influence.

After all, after entering the new millennium, two technologies are mainly responsible for the increase in global movie ticket prices -

One is 3D technology.

The other is the giant screen technology represented by imax.

The time for the former is not yet mature, but the company imax has been on the market for some years.

Although it is not yet a mainstream technology and is more widely used in places like planetariums, imax and its technology system are indeed slowly growing.

In this case, it is a good choice to start early before it really takes off.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that she didn't have enough funds, Charlotte would have wanted to acquire the company directly.

Because, in Charlotte’s future planning, imax, which masters giant screen shooting and construction technology, is a very important part——

Not a future plan as a Hollywood director or a rich man, but a future plan as a spell user.

——Since he can absorb the magic power through the movie he shot and is currently playing, and convert it into his own mana, what if his own magic circle is hidden on the big screen where the movie is shown?

Is it possible to get more mana, even from other people's movies?

The problem is that, similar to the United States, many countries pursue a policy of separating film companies from the theater chain system to avoid creating uncontrollable giants.

This makes it impossible for Charlotte to directly influence theaters and use the screens where he hides his private goods.

It would be a good way to control companies such as imax that provide new large-screen technology standards.

——Especially since imax technology has not yet become mainstream in the market, Charlotte still has time to slowly lay out its plans.

He has already thought about it. On the one hand, he will slowly experiment with how to arrange the magic circle representing himself on the big screen of the movie without being seen by the audience. On the other hand, he will slowly acquire and erode the stock of imax.

And when the conditions are ripe, he will swallow up imax company in one go.

He has even thought about how to get the support of imax's board of directors for his acquisition——

Let’s make a commercial blockbuster using IMAX technology!

Anyway, this technology will become a hot spot in the market in 2005 years. The movies shot using it will have a really great viewing experience, so why not?
