腾讯入股《碟中谍》《星际迷航》制片公司

Tencent has made a strategic investment in US film production company Skydance Media, with one report suggesting the Chinese tech conglomerate’s stake was near 10 per cent.

腾讯(Tencent)对美国制片公司Skydance Media进行了战略性投资，有报道称这家中国科技集团所持股份接近10%。

Skydance, which has produced a number of sequels for long-running movie franchises including Mission Impossible and Star Trek, announced the new partnership with Tencent and the strategic investment on Thursday evening in Los Angeles. The partnership will allow Tencent to co-finance Skydance films and to market, distribute and merchandise in China.

Skydance为《碟中谍》(Mission Impossible)和《星际迷航》(Star Trek)等长期系列电影制作过几部续集电影。周四晚上，Skydance在洛杉矶宣布，与腾讯建立新合作关系，腾讯将对Skydance进行战略性投资。在合作关系下，腾讯将可以成为Skydance电影的联合融资方，并有权在中国对电影进行营销、分销和周边产品销售。

“The partnership also supports collaboration on other media initiatives, including television, interactive and virtual reality,” Skydance said.

“这一合作关系还支持在其他媒介中的协作，包括电视、交互和虚拟现实，”Skydance表示。

The Wall Street Journal, citing one unidentified source with knowledge of the agreement, reported Tencent’s stake in Skydance was close to 10 per cent and valued the production company, which has a co-financing agreement with Paramount Pictures which was recently extended, at about $1.5bn.

《华尔街日报》(WSJ)引述一名不具名的知情人士的话报道称，腾讯在Skydance的股份接近10%，Skydance的估值约为15亿美元。Skydance与派拉蒙影业(Paramount Pictures)的一项联合融资协议最近进行了展期。
