In a potential watershed moment for Hollywood, the company behind “The Dark
Knight,” “Jurassic World” and “The Hangover” is about to become
Chinese-owned.
Dalian Wanda Group, the giant Chinese media and real estate company, is
closing in on a deal to acquire a majority stake in Burbank-based Legendary
Entertainment in a deal that values that company for as much as $4 billion,
said people familiar with the matter who were not authorized to comment
publicly on the negotiations.
The deal would represent the first acquisition of a major U.S. production
company by a Chinese investor and is expected to be finalized and announced
by early next week. Until now, Chinese media companies have pursued narrower
deals in Hollywood, such as investing in movies or providing financing for
co-productions. | r*****1

between the entertainment industries of the two countries.
Wanda, China's largest cinema company, has already made headlines with its U
.S. investments. In 2012 it acquired AMC Entertainment, owner of the nation'
s second-largest movie theater chain, for $2.6 billion.
Wanda would give Legendary a stronger foothold in a country expected to
surpass the size of the North American box office by 2017. The expanding box
-office revenue in China — ticket sales surged nearly 50% last year —
makes China an increasingly valuable market to U.S. film companies and has
prompted a flurry of deals on both sides of the Pacific.
At the same time, acquiring Legendary could significantly boost the
ambitions of Wanda, which is building what it bills as “the world's largest
film and television studio” in the eastern Chinese city of Qingdao, where
parts of “The Great Wall” were filmed. Spread across more than 400 acres,
Wanda Studios Qingdao will house 30 soundstages, a permanent facsimile of a
New York City street, a temperature-controlled underwater stage, the country
's largest exterior water tank and postproduction facilities. The first
phase of the studio is scheduled to open in 2017, and the company is seeking
to lure both Chinese and international productions to the facility. | r*****1
发帖数: 3465 | 3 中国证券网讯（记者 王雪青）中国证券网记者今日获悉，万达集团的文化产业版图将
再添世界级新军——传奇影业，具体收购情况或于下周二正式发布。
对于交易内容，多家外媒曾于1月5日报道称，万达集团将购入美国传奇娱乐公司的控股
权，在这笔交易中，传奇娱乐的估值在30亿美元至40亿美元之间。在外媒看来：“这可
能是好莱坞未来的一个重要转折点。”记者向万达集团人士求证细节时，对方依然保密
，仅表示“下周二见”。
资料显示，传奇影业创建于2004年，是美国独立的电影制作公司、好莱坞知名电影
公司，其母公司为传奇娱乐。《黑暗骑士》、《侏罗纪公园》、《超人：钢铁之躯》、
《盗梦空间》，以及2014年翻拍的《哥斯拉》、《宿醉》等都是由该公司出品，并且都
在内地取得了不俗的票房。在中国，传奇影业已有了不错的影响力，和中影合拍了不少
电影。其中，包括将于2016年上映的科幻大片《长城》，该片由马特达蒙、刘德华主演
，张艺谋执导，预计于2016贺岁档期上映。
分析人士认为：“收购传奇影业将为万达的电影大业打入一剂强心针。”凭借前面
两次收购，万达已成为全球规模最大的院线运营商，截至到2015年第三季度，万达院线
在国内拥有207家影院、1849块银幕，在全球拥有近600家影院、7000多块银幕，形成了
强大的规模效应。其实，早在2015年6月，王健林就与传奇影业有过接触，年底曾传出
万达考虑收购传奇影业部分股份的消息。
值得一提的是，去年11月，王健林曾在公开场合表示，万达电影制作和分销业务计
划在未来一年内上市。“电影制作和分销业务这两部分是分开上市还是打包上市，我们
还没有最终决定。”王健林表示，“上市将促进电影产业更快的发展，并使我们处于这
一产业链的最高端。” 目前，万达已经有万达院线一家A股上市公司，万达商业的A股
回归已在半途，那么，未来电影制作和分销业务是否会继续选择A股，值得市场期待。 | r*****1
