Chapter 361

A few days later.

After several negotiations and negotiations with the writers' Union and strike representatives, the producers' union finally reached an agreement on the afternoon of December 19.

In the face of the producers' Union, which is extremely tough and dominates the media opinion, the writers' Union and the strike representatives, although they have a lot of helplessness in their hearts, but they also know that they can't go back to heaven, so they have to sign various regulations.

At 3 pm, the fair was officially announced.

At 3:20 p.m., a press conference was held on the strike, marking the official end of the three week strike.

"I declare that from now on, all the strike will be over, in other words, it will be back to work now ~" Michael Eisner, the temporary speaker of the producers' Union and chairman of Disney, preached loudly in front of a crowd of news media.

"The strike is over, officially back to work!" Representatives of the writers' Union and strike representatives also spoke one after another.

"Hoo ~"

At this moment, both the writers who took part in the strike and the producers in Hollywood were relieved.

The writers have raised their salaries and benefits, if not much, but they are also valuable.

"What else to say?"

A senior playwright who participated in the strike said in a deep voice: "our strike only prevailed in the early days. However, with the means of producers' Alliance coming out, when the public opinion reversed, it marked our failure."

Another representative of the screenwriter solemnly said, "it's better to return to work one day earlier. After all, Christmas is approaching, and many people want to reunite with their families."

All of you in the producers' league are very glad to be back to work.

Ray Shidong, chairman of Viacom group and paramount, said: "this strike has taken three weeks to shut down. My paramount film company has shut down as many as three film production teams and two American production teams. The direct economic losses are as high as millions of dollars."

Murdoch, chairman of News Corporation and 20th Century Fox pictures, said with a smile: "we lost a lot in 20th century fox, but this time our producer alliance won a comprehensive victory. In the long run, we made money."

Zhuke has also been interviewed by various media.

"I am glad to see that the strike has ended and returned to work in such a short time."

"Together, two benefits!"

"I believe the lessons of this strike will make Hollywood better and the world better!"

I have to say that Zucker's face is thick enough.

There are so many routines!

A few days ago, Zhuke repeatedly criticized and ridiculed the writers who took part in the strike in the media, calling them "thugs", but now he says that they are dear to each other.

Tut tut~

The multi-media reporters at the scene were not moved by the corners of their mouths. They scolded Zhuke for being shameless and capricious.

But... You just say one?

Although Zhuke is now friendly, everyone who knows Zhuke knows that if you dare to say it to your face now, Zhuke will definitely give you a look.

"Capricious little man." A reporter whispered.

"Ha ha!"

One of the photographers next to him said with a low smile: "don't you hate it, you know, capitalists are not like this?"

It's over!

The strike is officially over!

.......

The strike is over, and then there is a lot to deal with.

For example, the writers who participated in the strike are really OK?

Think too much.

The face of capitalists can be summed up in four words: settle accounts after autumn!

The next day.

Spiderman and Harry Potter, which are being filmed by Wald pictures, are back to work.

Director Sam rami said: "according to the current progress," Spider Man "film will be completed in early January, and it is expected that in March, the later work will be completed, and the film will be finished."

Will it be finished in March?

Zhuke and a group of Wald film executives, all tacit agreement nodded.

Spiderman is the key blockbuster of Wald pictures in 2000, and it is an important sign that Wald pictures announced to officially join the summer program.

"Although many of our previous films have made a good box office, but in the summer season, we almost have nothing to do, this time," Spider Man "will fight for us." Old Bill said solemnly.

Zucker nodded.

Summer film has always been one of the six largest private plots in Hollywood. It is difficult for other film and television companies to get high-quality films. Even Wald pictures can only survive in this period.

"It's a challenge," Zhu said.

Finished "Spider Man", naturally to ask "Harry Potter" crew.

Harry Potter, slow down~

There are too many young actors in the group, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of shooting;

At the same time, many of the British actors who joined the film are celebrities, or senior actors wandering in various groups. They do not appear in the Harry Potter group every day, and the schedule also needs to be adjusted.

"Before June, can we finish the film?" Asked Zhuke.

Hearing this, director Chris Columbus shook his head and said, "God! Mr. ward, what you said is almost impossible《 Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone will be finished as soon as September. "

As we all know, in the film industry, the most difficult thing to shoot is not science fiction, but children and animals. Once they do not cooperate, the difficulty of film shooting will rise sharply.

"It seems that the movie" Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone "can only be shown in the Christmas file of 2000," he said

Christmas schedule

It's a hot schedule that Wald pictures has never touched, and Zucker is full of yearning.

.......

After visiting the resumption ceremonies of spider man and Harry Potter, Zhuke returns to Wald pictures.

"Kevin Fitch, recently you are responsible for recruiting a number of registered writers from the non Writers Union." Zucker said in the office.

Kevin Fitch was shocked and said, "boss, the strike has just ended. If you do it like this, it's bound to make waves again."

"I know your worries and concerns," Chuck said with a smile. But if we say it to the outside world, is it for new variety shows with UPN TV network and WB TV network? At that time, even if they have complaints, they will have nothing to say. After all, the director of variety shows is their weak link. "

Hearing this, Kevin Fitch is also in front of his eyes.

That's right. Zucker's after the fall.

The strike reminds Zhuke that he must recruit a group of people who are not writers' Union background to resist the future strike.

Stop work, the loss is money!

In fact, Zhuke is not the only smart person in Hollywood. Many film and television companies do this, especially the big six in Hollywood. They are even more unscrupulous in recruiting screenwriters who are not from the writers' Union.

All of them are brewing more bitter consequences of the general strike from 2007 to 2008.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Zucker got a call from gale capital on Wall Street in New York.

"Mr. Wald, the NASDAQ index is now as high as 3800 points. It's hard to say that we can break the 4000 point mark before the end of December. We want to make a lot of money ~"

The voice from the phone is full of excitement and excitement.

Zhuke also clenched his fist.

The footsteps of the Internet bubble are getting closer.

It is undoubtedly a great disaster for many, many enterprises and individuals, and even leads to large-scale bankruptcy, bankruptcy or death. But for speculators like Zuker, the Internet bubble is a golden opportunity. The opportunity to make big money!!!

"The first watch" is presented.
