Michael Jackson’s $400 Million Afterlife by Zack O'Malley Greenburg (The Beat Report) June 29, 2011 Over the past two years U2 has earned $320 million, fueled by a massive international tour that recently surpassed the Rolling Stones’ Bigger Bang tour as the most lucrative of all time. The whopping total makes U2 the highest-paid musical act in the world over that period–the highest-paid living musical act, that is. U2超越滾石樂團成為有史以來最會賺樂團也同時成為還在世最會賺的藝人 The top-earning musician on either side of the grave is Michael Jackson, whose estate has raked in $400 million since the King of Pop’s death two years ago. According to court documents filed earlier this year, Jackson’s estate took in $310 million from July 2009 through December 2010. FORBES estimates that another $90 million has rolled in since then from worldwide sales of posthumous album Michael, DVD sales of film This Is It, other licensing deals and robust publishing revenues. 而已經過世最會賺的藝人是麥可傑克森在MJ過世後兩年他的遺產公司已經賺進四億美金根據今年稍早的法律文件 MJ遺產公司從09年七月到去年十二月賺進了三億九千美金富比世預估今年到此為止應該也賺進了九千萬美金包括TII的DVD收入還有其他相關項目 “The continuing overwhelming worldwide interest in Michael confirms his status as the greatest entertainer of all time,” says John Branca, Jackson’ s longtime attorney and co-executor, adding that the estate has generated over $1 billion in retail sales over the past two years. 遺產執行人John Branca表示全世界持續對麥可感到興趣證明了他的確是有史以來最出色的藝人同時表示跟MJ相關的產業兩年來營收超過十億 It isn’t just Jackson’s music and likeness that continues to earn prodigious amounts of money. In fact, his most valuable asset is comprised of other artists’ work. Jackson shelled out $47.5 million in 1985 to buy a publishing catalog that included 250 Beatles songs. Ten years later Sony paid Jackson $90 million for half the rights, forming a joint venture called Sony/ATV. 不只MJ自己的音樂和肖像權持續賺錢事實上他最值錢的資產是他收購他人的版權庫 MJ在1985年投資了四千七百五十萬購買了包含披頭四250首歌曲的版權庫在十年後 SONY支付了九千萬取得了一半的所有權成為了SONY/ATV Today, the Jackson estate and Sony share ownership of the catalog, which now boasts half a million songs including titles by Bob Dylan, Elvis Presley, Eminem and other artists. Insiders place the catalog’s value somewhere in the neighborhood of $1.5 billion, based on estimated proceeds of $50 million to $100 million per year; the Jackson estate still takes half the profits. Of the $310 million earned through December 2010, $159 million has gone toward paying down Jackson’s debts, supporting his children and covering funeral and memorial service expenses, according to court documents. Branca and the other co-executors have also renegotiated and restructured existing financing arrangements and sought out new deals to generate more income. 目前MJ遺產公司和SONY是共同老闆版權庫有超過50萬首歌包括包布狄倫貓王阿姆與其他很多人的歌曲版權庫的價值約在15億美金左右這個預估值是基於版權庫每年帶來五千萬到一億的收入 MJ遺產公司將取得一半的獲利到去年為止賺進的三億一千萬其中一億五千九百萬支付了MJ的債務還有供養他的孩子以及支付喪葬相關費用遺產公司執行人同樣在重談財務重組希望新的協議會帶來更多獲利 To be sure, Jackson’s estate is still benefiting from the massive wave of publicity and nostalgia set into motion by the Gloved One’s death two years ago, and maintaining the current $200 million-per-year average income seems unlikely. But with a number of other substantial deals in the works– including a very lucrative international Cirque de Soleil tour set to launch this fall–it’s conceivable that earnings could level off in the $75-$100 million range annually. That’s more than Justin Bieber, Katy Perry or Kanye West has ever earned in a single year. 基本上遺產公司的持續收入是源自於MJ突然過世的影響維持每年約兩億的收入但是接下來的許多項目包含太陽馬戲團等會再帶入每年七千五百萬到一億的收入這遠超過了小賈斯汀凱蒂佩芮和肯伊維斯特等人一年的收入 “The cash flow on an annual basis is tremendous,” explained Donald David, an attorney who handled the postmortem finances of rapper Tupac Shakur, in a conversation with me late last year. “Sure, it’s going to decline eventually, but it’s going to be a huge amount in the foreseeable future. [Jackson's] kids are going to have grandkids before that money’s gone.” 當然收入會逐年減少但是未來的收益依然可觀至少這些錢會一直持續收入直到MJ 孩子們的孫子出生 http://blogs.forbes.com/zackomalleyg...ion-afterlife/ -- In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope.
