The New York Times is in talks to buy Letterboxd for around $330 million

《纽约时报》正就以约 3.3 亿美元收购 Letterboxd 进行谈判。

Rumors have been swirling about the film lover’s social network for a while, but the NYT reports it’s the buyer.

关于这家影迷社交网络的传闻已经流传了一段时间，但《纽约时报》报道称其正是收购方。

The New York Times Company is in “exclusive negotiations” to acquire Letterboxd, the social network for film lovers, for around $330 million, The New York Times reports. The Times Company, Sony Pictures Entertainment, and A24 were all recently rumored to be among those interested in buying Letterboxd.

据《纽约时报》报道，纽约时报公司正就以约 3.3 亿美元收购影迷社交网络 Letterboxd 进行“独家谈判”。此前有传言称，纽约时报公司、索尼影视娱乐公司和 A24 都在有意收购 Letterboxd 的行列中。

The negotiations with the Times Company have included the potential for Letterboxd’s co-founders to stay in charge but report to a Times Company executive. Letterboxd would likely remain standalone for the “foreseeable future,” according to the NYT. The company would also integrate the Times Company’s ad tech.

与纽约时报公司的谈判内容包括 Letterboxd 的联合创始人留任负责，但需向纽约时报公司的一位高管汇报。据《纽约时报》称，Letterboxd 在“可预见的未来”可能会保持独立运营。该公司还将整合纽约时报公司的广告技术。

NYT spokesperson Charlie Stadtlander declined to comment. Letterboxd and current parent company Tiny Ltd. didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment from The Verge.

纽约时报发言人查理·施塔特兰德（Charlie Stadtlander）拒绝置评。Letterboxd 及其目前的母公司 Tiny Ltd. 未能立即回复《The Verge》的置评请求。

If the NYT does acquire Letterboxd, it would follow other major purchases like Wordle (in a deal in “the low seven figures”), Wirecutter (“slightly more than $30 million”), and The Athletic ($550 million).

如果《纽约时报》最终收购 Letterboxd，这将继其此前的其他重大收购案之后，包括 Wordle（交易金额为“七位数低位”）、Wirecutter（“略高于 3000 万美元”）和 The Athletic（5.5 亿美元）。
