Matsushita, the world’s largest provider of consumer electronics, has decided to move in on Hollywood. Last weekend, Matsushita company leaders met with movie VIPs from MAC, Inc., the entertainment community that produced the movies as “Jaws” and “E.T. the Extra-terrestrial ”. If the negotiation are successful, Matsushita will pay somewhere between $6 billion and $7.5 billion for MAC, by far the largest U.S. buying by a Japanese company.
The deal is larger than last year’s $5 billion buying of Columbia Picture by Matsushita’s competitor, Sony Corporation.
The movement by the Japanese companies shows Tokyo’s growing interest in the entertainment world. It is surprising for both sides of the Pacific Ocean. Why does a disciplined, nonsense nation likeJapanwant to get into show business? The answer is quite simple: To make money. Japanese corporation leaders feel the global potential of the entertainment business and recognize that there is an increasing market for movies and television in the rapidly industrializing world.
