Chapter 211 Sending a Greeting Card
Tang En said lightly: "Isn't "Girls Club" released on August 4th? Hmph, it is naturally impossible to adjust the schedule of our family's movies, but don't forget, the movies released on this day, as well as Sony's "Transparent" Human Demon and Warner's Space Cowboy!"
"Our house?"
Hearing this word, Natalie was dizzy, a little shy, and a little sweet.
"What are you thinking? Stupid?" Dunn pushed her.
Natalie patted him on the arm angrily, "You're stupid, I just... By the way, you meant to help promote the two films "Transparent" and "Space Cowboy", borrowing the hands of others to suppress " Girls Club?"
Tang En said: "That's what it means. Tang En Pictures and Sony did not have a holiday, but they did not have friendship. Through this incident, they sold their affection. Moreover, the cost of "Transparent Man and Demon" is as high as 95 million US dollars, and the early publicity is also good. It has a certain appeal.”
Natalie nodded and said thoughtfully: "'Space Cowboy'... The appeal is even greater. Mr. Eastwood's self-directed and self-acted work, as well as the old actor Tommy Jones."
"So, the competition for this release period doesn't need to be in June at all." Dunn stretched, lay down on the bed, and said carelessly, "Director Clint Eastwood is a maverick, but This old man is a western cowboy with a strong and loyal style. Hey, what would he do if I sold him a face?"
Natalie curled her lips and said, "Do you want him to join Dunn Pictures? Impossible, he and Warner are hardcore. Put away your little favors."
Tang En said with a bitter face: "My dear, I'm really sad when you say that. Do you think I'm here for Tang En Pictures?"
"Is not it?"
"Although Dunn Pictures can't compare to Warner, it has also cooperated with famous directors such as Tim Burton, James Cameron, Ann Lee, Sam Mendes, Luc Besson. Eastwood is really good, but Dunn Pictures doesn't lack him!"
"Huh?" Natalie blinked quickly.
Tang En glared at her, then stretched out his hand, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her tender cheek, "I'm here for you, little fool!"
Natalie looked at him in surprise, "Me?"
Tang En said: "Yeah, don't you like to cooperate with the big director? Eastwood is the big director. I sold his favor this time. In the future... Maybe you have the opportunity to cooperate."
Natalie's heart was sweet, but she was not convinced, and hummed: "You will coax people, obviously you want to use a knife to kill people and suppress Disney's movies, as if you are all for me."
Tang En held back a smile and pretended to be helpless: "Forget it, since you don't want this opportunity... I'll give it to Nicole, or Kate, Charlie and the others..."
"you dare!"
Natalie turned over and sat on Dunn at once, looking at his sarcastic expression, tickling him embarrassedly, and gritted her teeth: "You bastard, you are trolling outside, and you are angry with me when you come back home. I'm fighting with you!"
"Ha ha"
Tang En naturally refused to admit defeat and immediately launched a counterattack.
For a time, the big bed swayed and the laughter continued.
Soon, this cheerful laughter was mixed with other unspeakable fast chants...
"What did you say? West went to work at Dunn Pictures?"
Tom Rothman's face suddenly changed when he heard the news from the secretary. It was originally a calm gesture, but it became a roar.
The secretary weakly said: "Yes, Mr. West Cotton was appointed as the vice president of Dunn Pictures, mainly responsible for strategic development, film marketing, brand promotion, etc., and..."
"And what?"
"And he also served as assistant to the ceo."
"Bang!"
The signature pen in Tom Rothman's hand fell straight on the desk, scaring the young female secretary's face.
The last time Tom Rothman was so rude was when "Titans a.e." was crushed by "Spider-Man" at the box office.
"You go out first."
Tom Rothman waved his hand weakly and let out a long sigh.
He slowly got up and walked slowly to the window of the office, his face heavy.
'Titans a.e.' was a box-office flop, and West Cotton was fired from Twentieth Century Fox for being a scapegoat.
But the board of directors is not a fool. They may know all the little tricks of Tom Rothman. They chose to abandon the car and keep the coach in order to maintain the stability of the overall situation.
Tom Rothman even heard some rumors that the top management of News Corporation was very dissatisfied with his recent actions. If he continued to be rude, he would definitely be ordered to step down as the controlling shareholder.
The name Dunn Walker came to his mind instantly.
Why is it always difficult to get through between the two?
Thinking about it again, it seems that every time Tom Rothman takes the initiative to move, Dunn is passive defense every time.
More importantly, every time Dunn's passive defense can prevent flowers, it's almost impossible to leak.
When he recalled the pleasant cooperation between himself and Dunn on the "Wedding Cracker" project at the turn of last spring and summer, Tom Rothman felt very uncomfortable.
"Maybe... I underestimated him too much?"
Tom Rothman narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.
In recent times, he has been very unhappy with Disney's response, especially when his old friend Joe Ruth was behind his back.
At the beginning, in order not to be held accountable by the board of directors and to have a foreign aid, he did not dare to contradict Joe Ruth. But now the situation has changed, the turmoil of "Titan a.e."'s box office fiasco has passed, and he can fight back with confidence.
only……
Is it worth it for a little Dunn Walker?
Tom Rothman has a shrewd mind, especially when dealing with interpersonal relationships, with ingenious means and a lot of secret hands. It is this kind of merit that made him manage carefully at Twentieth Century Fox and rise all the way to the CEO he is today.
For him, interests are far more important than friendship, and friendship is far more important than face!
Therefore, in Tom Rothman's view, choosing to resolve conflicts with Dunn is not a problem at all, but how to face Disney is difficult?
Although Tang En has been very popular and developed rapidly in recent years, he is only a 22-year-old young man who has only been in the industry for 4 years. Even if Disney loses ten or twenty times in a row, it will still be Disney, the mighty Disney!
Tom Rothman returned to the sofa and sat down, lit a cigar, took a slow puff, and thought hard.
"Anyway, Disney can't be offended!"
Soon, he made his first decision.
Tang En Pictures is developing fast, but even if it maintains the current speed of development, it will be difficult to catch up with Disney's existing scale and influence without the accumulation of more than ten or twenty years.
"But Tang En... is a potential stock. It's unwise to fight him head-on."
Tom Rothman shook his head, thinking that the resources and contacts he had invested in Dunn in the past three months was a huge waste.
Isn't it because Dunn Pictures recruited Bill McNick and a group of former 20th Century Fox officials What's the big deal?
Above the market, the interests are the first.
Don't look at friendship, don't talk about personal hatred, this is a qualified businessman!
Tom Rothman pondered for a long time, but he really couldn't think of the deep hatred between him and Dunn. Is it really necessary to make such an inexorable competitive situation now?
Recalling the fierce competition between the three blockbusters "Spider-Man", "Sixty Seconds" and "Titan a.e." which were released at the same time at the end of June, it was not worth the gain. Go for a big bargain.
"Chicken Run" produced by British Aardman Animation Studios has a chance to survive in the cracks. So far, "Chicken Run" has earned a box office of 67.8 million US dollars in North America and more than 73 million overseas. U.S. box office receipts.
The total box office data exceeds 140 million US dollars, more than the box office of "Sixty Seconds" and "Titan a.e." combined!
And this movie, the cost is only 45 million US dollars!
Here, Dunn Films, Fox, and Disney have turned upside down, secretly making a fortune in "Chicken Run". Maybe "Spider-Man", which has a global box office close to 1.1 billion US dollars, doesn't care, but Tom Rothman cares very much.
It was a joke by the hateful Englishman!
"Come on!"
Tom Rothman slapped the sofa suddenly, shouted, called the secretary back, and ordered: "In my name, send an email to West Cotton... oh no, send a greeting card, just Say I congratulate him on his new job!"
