Dalian Wanda, the property and media group controlled by Wang Jianlin, China’s richest man, will purchase Legendary Entertainment for $3.5bn.
Legendary, the Hollywood company behind films such as Godzilla and Pacific Rim, was started by Thomas Tull, who will remain chairman and CEO. The deal is aimed at strengthening ties between Hollywood and the world’s fastest-growing movie market. In a Chinese language-release to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Wanda said it would buy Legendary for no more than $3.5bn, in cash. As reported last week, Mr Wang has been looking for a Hollywood studio to buy for several years. His company was linked with a purchase of DreamWorks Animation last year but the talks broke down. He also told reporters a year ago that he intended to buy Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer or Lions Gate Entertainment but a deal did not materialise. In 2011 Legendary launched Legendary East, a Hong Kong-based joint venture company to co-produce films in China, thereby escaping China’s import quotas. It plans to release its first project with the state-owned China Film Co this year: The Great Wall, a fantasy epic starring Matt Damon and directed by Zhang Yimou, one of China’s best-known filmmakers. In 2012 Wanda bought the AMC Entertainment cinema chain. 中国首富王健林控股的地产与传媒集团大连万达(Dalian Wanda)将以35亿美元收购传奇娱乐(Legendary Entertainment)。
这家制作了《哥斯拉》(Godzilla)和《环太平洋》(Pacific Rim)等电影的好莱坞企业,是由托马斯?图尔(Thomas Tull)创建的,他将继续担任董事长兼首席执行官。该交易旨在加强好莱坞与中国这个全球增长最快的电影市场之间的联系。 万达在港交所(HKEx)发布公告称,将以不超过35亿美元的现金收购传奇娱乐。 正如上周所报道,王健林多年来一直在寻求收购一家好莱坞电影公司。他的公司曾参与对梦工厂动画(DreamWorks Animation)的收购,不过相关谈判破裂了。他还曾在一年前向记者表示,他打算买下米高梅(Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer)或狮门娱乐(Lions Gate Entertainment),然而却未能实现任何交易。 2011年,传奇娱乐创建了一家总部位于香港的合资企业传奇东方(Legendary East),以便在中国合作制作电影,从而规避中国的电影进口配额制度。该公司计划在今年上映与国有的中影集团(China Film Group Corporation)合拍的首部影片:《长城》(The Great Wall)。该电影是一部奇幻的史诗巨制,由马特?达蒙(Matt Damon)主演,并由中国最知名电影制作人之一张艺谋导演。 2012年,万达收购了电影院线AMC娱乐(AMC Entertainment)。 译者/何黎 |
