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超越滚石乐团成为有史以来最会赚乐团 也同时成为还在世最会赚的艺人
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.
而已经过世最会赚的艺人是麦可杰克森 在MJ过世後两年 他的遗产公司已经赚进四亿美金
根据今年稍早的法律文件 MJ遗产公司从09年七月到去年十二月赚进了三亿九千美金
富比世预估今年到此为止应该也赚进了九千万美金 包括TII的DVD收入 还有其他相关项目
“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.
遗产执行人John Branca表示 全世界持续对麦可感到兴趣证明了他的确是有史以来最出
色的艺人 同时表示跟MJ相关的产业两年来营收超过十亿
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自己的音乐和肖像权持续赚钱 事实上他最值钱的资产是他收购他人的版权库
MJ在1985年投资了四千七百五十万购买了包含披头四250首歌曲的版权库 在十年後
SONY支付了九千万取得了一半的所有权 成为了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遗产公司和SONY是共同老板 版权库有超过50万首歌 包括包布狄伦 猫王 阿姆
与其他很多人的歌曲 版权库的价值约在15亿美金左右 这个预估值是基於版权库每年带来
五千万到一亿的收入 MJ遗产公司将取得一半的获利
到去年为止赚进的三亿一千万 其中一亿五千九百万支付了MJ的债务 还有供养他的孩子
以及支付丧葬相关费用 遗产公司执行人同样在重谈财务重组 希望新的协议会带来更多
获利
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.
基本上遗产公司的持续收入是源自於MJ突然过世的影响 维持每年约两亿的收入 但是
接下来的许多项目 包含太阳马戏团等 会再带入每年七千五百万到一亿的收入 这远超过
了小贾斯汀 凯蒂佩芮和肯伊维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.”
当然收入会逐年减少 但是未来的收益依然可观 至少这些钱会一直持续收入直到MJ
孩子们的孙子出生
