Chapter 1288

"Hey, David, what are you up to?"

When Sonya called, the line was busy. David Geffen was answering a call from Harvey Weinstein.

As soon as he heard Harvey's triumphant and sarcastic tone, he was very upset. But now the situation is different. Harvey has won the absolute friendship of the chief commander by spending money to help fight the war of public opinion before and after the impeachment Because he resented the great commander's betrayal of his promise to support the same-sex groups, he gradually alienated himself these years. Unexpectedly, the great commander seems to be more supported by the public after passing the impeachment case, and his wife is expected to inherit his political influence after he leaves office.

It's not about the gap between himself and his family. Hollywood and the Jewish people in Hollywood need a close communication bridge with the commander. After all, Harvey is one of his own. We can rest assured.

I knew I shouldn't have been affected by the anger of the brotherhood being betrayed. David Geffen secretly regretted, "what's up, Harvey?" He asked impatiently.

"I heard you left the globe?" Sure enough, Harvey smelled it.

"It's just a good business. I'm not here at all. I'm not going to leave."

David Geffen can actually accept a transfer price of 600 million yuan. He is in urgent need of cash. As for the reason He looked up at Neverland in the distance.

"I see." Harvey said grimly.

"Don't believe the rumors outside. I have no problem with little Edgar."

David Geffen knew that after the deal was finalized, there was a rumor that he was swept out by little brown man in the high-level circle of Hollywood. In a certain way, it was true. Since then, he has completely lost his influence on the global system. Because many foreign distribution contracts of DreamWorks are in the hands of universal, and Universal Pictures itself is also a shareholder of DreamWorks, he and little brown have no influence on DreamWorks Man's relationship has changed from cooperation to unilateral restriction.

It is estimated that this is also the reason why little Bronfman is willing to take out 600 million in cash to buy his own business when his cash flow is not abundant. As for why the market value of sigram global group will reach 50 billion after the successful IPO, and he has made a loss in this business? Hum! He dreams!

It's better to leave the world, that puzzling psycho!

"Ha ha, I can guess what you want to do with little Bronfman's money..." Harvey was on the phone.

"Oh?"

This guy is too airy David Geffen smiles in his heart. In fact, everyone is willing to put up with all kinds of problems of this fat man because he is vain and shallow enough to see through at a glance, "please say."

"Because MJ's business is in trouble, right?" Asked Harvey.

It's true, but David Geffen doesn't want to admit that he doesn't want to share this good deal with anyone. Sometimes, vultures don't need to go with them, and they have enough cash in their hands. They just took 600 million. "How can we talk about MJ? Harvey, are you drunk? "

"No, in broad daylight..."

"Don't die in a woman's belly."

"Hey, hey, don't interrupt David. I know MJ is short of money recently. Who do you think publicized the rumor of his bankruptcy? it's me. So I think I'm a little qualified to participate? We had a very good cooperation in the past, such as Lazarenko's Isn't it? " Harvey was pestering.

"It's not MJ. Don't think about it."

David geffin is getting more and more upset by this guy. "We'd better keep a little distance recently. Your Shakespeare love story is in the award season, sniping and Saving Private Ryan. What you've done Public relations judges, public opinion hype no problem, OK, smear? You crossed the line, Harvey. It's just that Spielberg and I don't want to quarrel with you and be laughed at by outsiders because of such trifles. "

"Spielberg is Spielberg, you are you, David, business is business, and how much money is Spielberg willing to give you and karsenberg to save Private Ryan? I know him too well, and I know kasenberg too well. You three are not in the same dimension in character and ambition. "

Harvey took the opportunity to provoke.

"Well, I don't have much time to chat with you."

As one of the three giants of DreamWorks, I had accumulated a lot of conflicts with Spielberg and carsenberg shortly after I started my big business. The two made money for the company, one was a live action commercial film and the other was an animated film. I was responsible for some achievements in music affairs, but most of them were made by selling their movie soundtracks Spielberg and carsenberg have long complained about this.

One of the reasons for selling shares to universal this time is that Ron Meyer, President of Universal Pictures, lobbied with the two guys in private. As a result, they worried that universal would suppress the issuance of DreamWorks, so they worked together to persuade themselves to comply.

At the strategic level, there are also big differences among the three. Carsenberg has the least wealth but the most ambition. He is determined to build DreamWorks into the eighth largest film company, hoping to take the most dangerous and promising path.

But that's because there's no way out for him after Eisner kicked him out of Disney. He has only DreamWorks.

Spielberg and himself have their own way. For example, Spielberg has amplin entertainment, which is already a powerful second tier company in Hollywood. He does not have the courage to give up that big show completely. I'm a little less burdened than him, but Gefen pictures, which was going to close down, just accidentally won the distribution rights of several sequels of aplus's a + film studio, and then changed hands to cooperate with Warner to releaseThey are rich in wealth, and their business involves complicated interests. How can they be as determined as carsenberg.

What's more, Spielberg is deeply rooted in the art of film and television. He is more utilitarian and more inclined to make fast money. He used to understand each other when he was a friend. He even didn't mind making harmless jokes and taunting each other occasionally. But after he really started the company, everything was different. Spielberg and kasenberg stood together and disagreed Let DreamWorks get involved in other areas of investment.

"Don't hang up, David, ha ha..."

I didn't expect Harvey to be determined. "Seriously, I can help this time. I know MJ is short of money. I also know that aplus hasn't stopped trying to get back the copyright of his songs in MJ's ATV. How about that? You will not be happy to see me go to him to cooperate and compete with you, will you

It's a threat, "so you can go to aplus." Ha ha, David Gefen laughs instead. Harvey may really know a lot of information, but he still lacks understanding of MJ's character. MJ will never sell aplus's song copyright, let alone let aplus buy it back. He has absolute confidence in this.

"Come on, David, we are all our own people, and aplus is much more distant..." Harvey added.

This guy really thinks bad things are not good, David Geffen thought, forget it, lose some bones to buy, "OK, OK, take you one, and wait for my news at that time."

“OK！ Thank you, David

Harvey Weinstein was finally happy.

"Mr. Geffen, please. MJ is waiting for you."

The car drove all the way from the super large Neverland to the door of the villa, and the new lawyer hired by MJ had been waiting under the steps.

At that time, he and MJ joined hands to exclude Sony Columbia record President yetnikov in the CBS era, and former iron triangle, MJ's most trusted lawyer Branca. After that, they set up a net around MJ, including agents sandy Glenn, lawyers Lee Phillips, bottfields and Allen Brugman, and took advantage of it to intervene in a lot of MJ's business, making a lot of money.

After the case broke out in 1992, MJ was dissatisfied with bottfield's response and left the case to black barrister Cochrane. Later, Cochrane left him because he agreed to settle the civil case again.

Later, MJ swept sandy Glenn and Lee Phillips out of the house. The two guys went to Mariah Kelly because they had an interest in aplus. They didn't find them this time.

MJ has a good hand. Apart from meeting Alan Grubman, President of Sony Columbia motura, MJ has indirectly cleaned up all of his influence, and at the same time, he has decoupled most of his business by paying a "breakup fee".

Allen Grubman, who changed his ways in the middle of the way, also failed to hold on to the end. After aplus was shot, MJ fired him under the pressure of the black community, and brought back his long marginalized old partner, lawyer Branca.

"Thank you."

In addition to Blanca, who has a bad relationship with himself, the lawyer team around MJ is a stranger now. It's not so easy for him to take advantage of his cash flow problems to eat this meat. David Gefen cleans up and walks into the villa.

King of pop is watching the video of Jordan's retirement star game. David Geffen just saw aplus holding the ball to get into the basket after entering the door. In reality, he felt very strong, but against the backdrop of a group of professional players, the boy who looked well-balanced took an ugly crab step, jumped up and dunked with both hands. Jordan, Buckley and Rodman became the background.

"David..."

MJ in pajamas is so thin that the curtains in the room are closed. The light is dark and chilly. He uses his usual soft and beautiful voice. He speaks slowly and with a little envy. He looks at aplus running in the TV to celebrate and exclaim: "look, it's good to be young."

"Yes."

David Gefen agrees. At the same time, aplus rushes to the broadcasting station and kisses the camera with his mouth, "HOHO..." The scene made him and MJ laugh together.

"I need your help, David. Now think about it. It was a wonderful time when we worked together."

MJ turned off the TV and said, "sorry, I know I've hurt our friendship. I can't help some things..."

His apology is sincere but also a bit hypocritical. David Geffen knows that the king of fashion is not smart in business, but he can't live in the palace for a long time like this

"I find that I still need your help, OK?" MJ asked softly.

I'm a ruthless person. Of course, I don't give any positive advice. "It's OK, I didn't pay attention to it Well, what's the reason this time? As long as I can help you, I'll do it. " It's also hypocritical.

"Well, Mr. Geffen..."

MJ signaled to his lawyer, and the other side began to introduce: "we and Sony Music Copyright company..."

Vulture's ability of action must be very strong. In fact, David Geffen has already done a good job in intelligence work. After all, there are still some disconnected corners in his business with MJ, which is his unique advantage.After MJ merged the copyright Library of ATV and Sony Music, the copyright of new songs was transferred to this copyright library by Sony Columbia Records. If MJ wants to maintain 50% of the shares, he must pay the same purchase fee as Sony. MJ can afford to pay at the beginning, but the problem did not break out.

But last year, with the global merger and acquisition of poly king and the great earthquake in the record market, Sony copyright company also took the opportunity to launch the acquisition of copyright library. Maybe Sony set up an ambush for mJ at the beginning. Although MJ is a top-level money printer, its financial resources are finally starting to fall behind.

"So Sony is willing to lend you money, and then let you use it to keep your shareholding, right?" Asked David Geffen.

"Yes, do you think so?" Asked MJ.

This is a trial. David Geffen knows that he can't give a wrong answer: "is there any additional condition? If you don't, it looks good. Just wait for your new professional and new tour to make money, right? "

"Of course, they want to have the preemptive right to buy back when I can't maintain this model." MJ replied.

"That's not good, is it? If you go bankrupt, I mean if, can they take the opportunity to buy back? As you know, there are fewer and fewer big record companies, and the tacit understanding among the five is getting deeper and deeper.... " David Geffen said.

"Yes So I'm hesitating... " Is the answer correct? MJ nodded.

"Any other options?" Asked David Geffen.

"I don't have a clue, so I want to do some other business first, but I need to keep it absolutely secret. I hate being told to be bankrupt again..." MJ said in a low mood: "the other thing is OK. The tabloids rumored that I was bankrupt because I needed to pay those children a huge sum of money. I can't stand it..."

Here we go! David Geffen was ecstatic, relaxed? It's great to be able to free your hand as soon as possible, and then go to find a way to revenge the rich three generations! "No problem. Don't worry about the 1992 case. Michael, I happen to have some cash in my hand. Let the lawyers talk about the rest."

"That's great Thank you, David
