Chapter 274 - Chapter 270: Kyle's Asset Appraisal

"Come, sit, everyone sit down. No need to be formal."

Facing the arrival of his personal lawyer Paul Goodman and personal financial advisor Anna Josephine, Kyle hosted them personally, pouring a cup of coffee for each of them.

"Come and taste the coffee I ground myself; after all, you've both been quite exhausted lately," Kyle said with a face full of smiles.

Paul Goodman took a sip of the coffee, pulled out his briefcase, and said, "Boss, this is all part of our job. It's not right to call it hard work."

Personal financial advisor Anna Josephine echoed, "Overall, Mr. Page, your financial situation is in excellent shape."

"That's good." Kyle rubbed his hands together excitedly, looking like a commoner who had just come into wealth.

Paul Goodman took a stack of bound and organized materials from his briefcase and handed them to Kyle.

"Boss, the materials in your hand are a summary of the assets of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group under your name. As for your bank accounts and personal diversified investments, your personal financial advisor, Ms. Anna Josephine, will explain those to you," Paul Goodman stated.

Anna also nodded.

Kyle kept his company assets and personal accounts separate.

Furthermore, Kyle had the two of them handle the accounting and statistics for these two parts separately. This wasn't because Kyle didn't trust Paul Goodman, whom he had known for a long time, but rather out of standard professional considerations.

The human heart cannot withstand testing!

No one could guarantee that Paul Goodman wouldn't be tempted by such wealth!

"Boss, please look at this information first, and I will explain it to you as you go," Paul Goodman added.

Kyle opened the folder. The first thing that caught his eye was Golden Dawn Entertainment Group and the valuations and financial reports of its various subsidiaries, including Page Pictures, Television Group, and Waterworld Animation... "Golden Dawn Entertainment Group oversees a total of eight subsidiaries: Page Pictures, Golden Dawn Television Group, Waterworld Animation Company, SpongeBob House Merchandise Chain Store, Golden Dawn Music, Golden Dawn Publishing, Manchester City Club, and Under Armour Sports Goods Company."

"As of now, in the four years since Page Pictures was founded, it has produced nearly 20 self-made films and holds many well-known copyrights such as juno, the purge, wrong turn, 300, and the sixth sense."

"Additionally, there are more than 2, 300 film copyrights acquired over the past six months;"

"With nationwide distribution channels, licensing rights, film and television copyrights, the Page Pictures building, and other fixed assets, Goldman Sachs has valued it at $1.3 billion;"

Paul Goodman said.

Hearing this, even Kyle was instantly overjoyed.

A valuation of $1.3 billion for Page Pictures was indeed not low!

Setting aside The Big Six of Hollywood for a moment, DreamWorks, which was considered the number one company below The Big Six, had a total valuation of only $1.41 billion for its film production and distribution arm plus brand value, excluding music, games, books, and other related industry chains.

"Mr. Page, congratulations!" Anna congratulated him.

"I must also congratulate you, Boss!"

Paul Goodman said solemnly, "From now on, the value of Page Pictures is second only to The Big Six, MGM, and DreamWorks, ranking 9th on the list of most powerful Hollywood film companies!"

The corners of Kyle's mouth couldn't help but curl upward.

Four years!

In just four short years, the strength of Page Pictures had expanded to a point where 98% of Hollywood film companies needed to look up to it.

Even if this included the advantages of being a transmigrator , Kyle had every reason to be proud.

"What about the other subsidiaries under Golden Dawn Entertainment Group?" Kyle continued to ask... "1. Golden Dawn Television Group, which oversees the UPN Television Network and WB Television Network, has a total valuation of $1.03 billion;"

"Among them, the copyrights for the two variety shows Talent Show and Millionaire are the most valuable. The brand value of Talent Show alone is as high as $1 billion, but valuation isn't calculated that simply, as there are considerations for time costs."

"Similarly, the vast majority of the annual profits are deposited into Mr. Kyle's personal account."

"2. Golden Dawn Music Company, which has popular singers or groups such as Eminem, Beyoncé, Destinys Child, Britney Spears, and Linkin Park, is valued at $210 million;"

"3. Golden Dawn Publishing Group, which oversees White Castle Publishing House, Smile Publishing House, Brown Bear Duke Publishing House, and the publishing rights to over a thousand books, is valued at $190 million;"

"...6. Manchester City Club finished 1st in the Football League Second Division this season and has been promoted to the Football League First Division. Its market value has climbed by tens of millions of dollars, currently valued at $63 million;"

"7. Under Armour Sports Goods Company, with the shareholding ratio increased from 45% to 62%, is valued at $13 million."

"The overall value of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group is $3.26 billion!"

"Among all the major film companies in Hollywood, its overall strength ranks 8th, which in this regard surpasses MGM."

"In the field of major media companies in America, it ranks 17th!"

Paul Goodman continued, "Of course, this is just a valuation. I believe the valuation given by Goldman Sachs is far below the actual value. The value of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group is definitely not just $3.26 billion!"

Kyle clicked his tongue in amazement.

But at the same time, he very much agreed with Paul Goodman's words!

The value of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group was definitely far more than $3.26 billion!

To say nothing else, as soon as the Harry Potter and Spider-Man film series are released, the overall market value of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group will soar significantly.

Plus, Kyle also owned a series of Marvel superhero copyrights, which would be extremely valuable in the future.

"Likewise, my SpongeBob House recently set up a production center for bratz dolls, which involves a market worth tens of billions of dollars!"

"The Finding Nemo animated film hasn't been released yet. Once it is, it will be very easy for the market value to soar by several hundred million dollars."

At this moment, in Kyle's heart, Golden Dawn Entertainment Group was not just worth $3.26 billion, but was a group valued at over ten billion, or even tens of billions of dollars!

Personal financial advisor Anna said, "Mr. Page, now I will explain your personal investments and asset status to you."

Kyle nodded.

There was also a complete set of materials for his personal finances.

The companies Kyle invested in under his personal name were even more numerous, far more than the subsidiaries of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group.

Wholly-owned enterprises included California Standard Bank and LinkedIn Corporation;

Enterprises where he held a stake of over 5% included McAfee, Google Company, Amazon Company, Gale Capital Investment Company, and so on;

Enterprises where he held a stake of less than 5% included 2% of Yahoo stock, 3.72% of Apple stock, 0.02% of America Online stock, 0.01% of Microsoft stock, and so on;

At the same time, Kyle had $780 million worth of gold stored in California Standard Bank and Swiss Bank;

Villas, private jets, yachts, farms, islands... "In addition, your cash accounts in major banks also hold $590 million in cash," Anna said.

Kyle immediately urged, "Just tell me directly, excluding Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, how much are the assets under my name worth in total?"

"$6.1 billion!"

Holy crap!

Don't blame Kyle for not being able to help cursing; he really couldn't hold it in!

Man, $6.1 billion!

If you converted this money into hundred-dollar bills, it would definitely be a mountain of cash!

"I actually have that much money?" Kyle's eyes widened.

Adding in the $3.26 billion valuation of Golden Dawn Entertainment, Kyle's total net worth was nearly $10 billion. Tell me, who could stay calm?

Whether God could stay calm, Kyle didn't know!

But Kyle himself was definitely unable to stay calm right now!

Anna smiled and said, "Mr. Page, the 2% Yahoo stock alone is worth $800 million, the 3.72% Apple stock is worth $370 million, and the 8% Amazon stock is worth $3 billion. Plus the stocks in companies like Microsoft and HP, these alone are worth a lot!"

Paul Goodman echoed, "Boss, currently internet stocks are soaring, and the NASDAQ internet stock market is doing very well. Your stock investments will likely grow by another few hundred million dollars in half a year."
