Except for action in private, Scott stepped up the gold dollar offensive, to put it bluntly, purchases result the determining factor lies in the fund. 除了私下的行动,斯科特加紧了金元攻势,说白了,收购成功与否的决定因素还是在于资金。 After 250 million US dollars offer was rejected, the Scott's hand 5% Paramount film company stocks by Ryan and in the Nicole mortgages to offer loans 500 million US dollars to the bank, will offer to promote 300 million US dollars, some people had started the vacillation. 在2.5亿美元的报价被拒绝之后,斯科特以瑞恩妮可手中百分之五的派拉蒙影业股份向银行抵押举债5亿美元,将报价提升到了3亿美元,有些人已经开始了动摇。 Although the action of Ryan is rapid enough, but surprised brought to the attention of other investors, even if the cartoon industry entered the trough, but in the surprised hand holds the copyrights of more than 5000 cartoon images. 尽管瑞恩的行动足够迅速,但惊奇还是引起了其他投资人的注意,即便漫画业走入了低谷,但惊奇手中可是握有五千多个漫画形象的版权。 Ryan is indistinct remembers, surprised changed to Marvel Chinese afterward, probably was purchased by Walt Disney, the price has billions and billions US dollars fully, this is the good food that cannot give up. 瑞恩隐约间记得,惊奇后来把中文名改成了漫威,好像被华特迪士尼收购了,价格足有好几十亿美元,这可是一块不能放弃的美食。 In other investors hesitate, Scott will offer to enhance 450 million US dollars, in the face of such price, applied for the surprised board of directors of bankruptcy protection to surrender finally. 就在其他投资人犹豫之时,斯科特将报价提高到了4.5亿美元,在如此的价格面前,申请了破产保护的惊奇董事会终于投降了。 Was Scott's Lincoln saloon car to stop in front of Fifth Avenue No. 417 building, after George opened the vehicle door, Ryan took the lead to drill from the car(riage), a he straight dark-colored suit, is matching the stripe tie of same color department, the standard occupation installed to dress up. 属于斯科特的林肯房车停在了第五大道417号的楼前,在乔治拉开车门后,瑞恩率先从车中钻了出来,他一身笔挺的深色西装,搭配着同色系的条纹领带,标准的职业装打扮。 Then, so long as signs, he had the Marvel Comics absolute holding power. 接下来,只要签完字,他就掌握了惊奇漫画的绝对控股权。 Ryan, your height must catch up with me immediately!” Before Scott guides, two people walk toward the building. 瑞恩,你身高马上就要追上我了!”斯科特头前带路,两人向着楼中走去。 Forget it, Scott, I will definitely not have you is so high.” Ryan is very satisfied with the present height, the high words, playing movie that may be troublesome. “得了吧,斯科特,我肯定不会有你那么高。”瑞恩对现在的身高已经很满意了,再高的话,出演电影那可就是麻烦了。 Even if currently slightly has the asset, that young metal statue but who most wants to take has not succeeded in obtaining. 即便现在小有资产,但最想拿的那个小金人还没有到手呢。 In the big conference room in surprised company, a large crowd is waiting for them, in this not only has the surprised high level, and lawyer and accountants of some both sides. 惊奇公司的大会议室中,一大群人正在等着他们,这里面既有惊奇的高层,又有双方的律师和会计师。 Uncle Wilson, but must trouble you to run personally from Los Angeles.” Ryan hugged gently under appeared senile Mr. lawyer, the opposite party was one of people he most trusted. 威尔逊叔叔,还要麻烦你亲自从洛杉矶跑一趟。”瑞恩轻轻抱了下显出了老态的律师先生,对方是他最信任的人之一。 Ryan, Scott, done attractiveness!” Wilson lawyer patted under their arms, contract I have examined, signed is OK.” 瑞恩,还有斯科特,做的漂亮!”威尔逊律师拍了下他们的胳膊,“合同我已经审过了,签字就可以了。” Without the flashing light, without the press conference, does not have any ceremony, signs under the annotations of dozens eyes, successfully completes. 没有闪光灯,没有记者招待会,没有任何仪式,签字在数十双眼睛的注释下,顺利完成。 lawyer and miscellaneous personnel of both sides left the conference room quickly, surplus besides Ryan two people, was the surprised high level. 双方的律师和闲杂人等很快离开了会议室,剩余的除了瑞恩两人外,就是惊奇的高层了。 I think that everyone should know, Avey?
