Chapter 671： A moment of silence for 0

Tang En's strong attitude, as always, once again allowed all the executives to see the unrivaled fortitude of this young boss.

Especially Bill McNick.

Asking the Film and Television Entertainment Department to subsidize Netflix is ​​equivalent to sharing the profits of the Film and Television Entertainment Department with Netflix.

Profits have decreased, and the management of the film and television entertainment department will naturally receive less dividends.

However, this is Dunn's decision, who dares to object?

If it is a new department like the Ministry of Tourism, Vacation and Consumer Goods, it is good to say that Dunn's authority is not enough.

But the film and television entertainment department is different.

Dunn got his start in movies.

In the film and television entertainment department, the nominal CEO is Bill McNick, but everyone knows that Dunn's words are the imperial edict here, and they must be obeyed unconditionally.

This is very different from many managements in other departments, who will express personal opinions and even object from time to time.

Dunn has decided to let the film and television entertainment department subsidize Netflix to meet the income and expenditure standard of Netflix's monthly subscription fee of $16.

This decree will be implemented without hesitation as long as it is approved by the New Global Legal Department and will not involve "market dumping", "vicious competition", "price war" and other factors.

In the conference room, many executives were a little silent.

Even if it's a moment of silence for Blockbuster.

"Since everyone has no objection, let's make this decision. It takes one month to prepare. Before December, Netflix will start to cut prices and launch a monthly subscription policy of $16!"

Dunn said with a smile, he didn't look like a decisive ruthless man at all.

Blockbuster is expected to officially launch the $16 monthly rental system in mid-November, and Netflix will soon respond.

Slap your ears hard!

Reed Hastings was in a good mood. He tried to sell Netflix to Blockbuster, and the result... was humiliated.

From entering the Blockbuster Building to being kicked out, it took no more than 15 minutes.

Now, the opportunity has finally come.

Dunn made up his mind to deal with Besta!

This is definitely revenge for Xue Ghen, Yi Xue's humiliation back then!

"Basic is over!"

Not to mention how comfortable Reed Hastings was in his heart, he looked at Dunn with more respect.

Tang En smiled in return, "You said that Netflix's user level reaches 15 million, and it will be able to take care of its own profits and losses. Do you think... it will take a few more years?"

"This……"

Reed Hastings is in trouble.

He wanted to say five years.

But this is too long.

Look at the development speed of New Universal Group, almost the same every day.

If Netflix dares to propose a five-year plan, it will be laughed at by colleagues there.

Netflix enjoys so many high-quality resources from the group, but it is really shameful to come up with such a lame five-year plan.

In contrast, look at the sta TV network, how amazing is the development speed?

Since being acquired by Dunn, within 3 years, the number of users of sta TV network has increased from 3 million to 17 million!

There will always be more users than the two major TV networks hbo and sho!

In particular, the subscription fee of starz is the highest in the United States, which is a few cents higher than that of espn.

starz is already a must-have station for the nation's elite.

However, in terms of resource occupation, sta TV network is far less than Netflix.

Seeing Reed Hastings' embarrassed face, Kevin Turner hurriedly said: "I don't think this time will be too long, it will only take three years! Within three years, the number of Netflix users will reach 15 million. !"

He was a well-respected go-getter by Tang En's side. Even if the guarantee was wrong, there would not be much loss.

Get your face back first.

Dunn gave him a deep look, shook his head and smiled.

In fact, he knows that the key factor that restricts the number of Netflix users is not Netflix's price, technology, and promotion, but the objective conditions of Internet speed!

Only when the network speed breaks through from narrowband to broadband, will Internet users show an explosive growth.

With more Internet users, Netflix's users will naturally increase.

In the United States now, even if many people know the reputation of Netflix, they stay away from it because it is an Internet platform.

As Kevin Turner said before, he has to wait for the arrival of the eb2.0 era.

"Okay, that's the deal with Besta, everyone will write a report later. Next, let's talk about the second thing." Dunn sat at the main seat of the long table, with great momentum.

"The second thing?"

People are a little puzzled.

Isn't the theme of today's meeting to discuss how to deal with Blockbuster?

Haven't heard of anything else?

Tang En didn't surprise everyone for too long, and said slowly: "Basida dares to provoke, we will fight back ruthlessly without mercy! But don't forget, in this incident, Lei Shidong is also indispensable. shadow!"

The voice fell.

Everyone was stunned.

Redstone?

what's going on?

Are you going to attack Redstone again?

In fact, everyone knows that although Blockbuster and Viacom have divested their assets, Redstone still has a huge influence within Blockbuster.

Blockbuster wants to implement a monthly membership system. Without Redstone's permission, the feasibility is very low.

It's just...he is Lei Shidong after all!

Previously, the New Universal Group was united with Disney to fight against Viacom.

This time, is Dunn going to challenge Redstone alone?

It's dangerous!

Viacom is a skinny camel bigger than a horse, it's not a Blockbuster!

Tang En ignored everyone's astonished expressions, and said indifferently, "When the meeting started, everyone heard what Barry said. He called Lei Shidong to communicate about Blockbuster, but he was rejected."

Barry Diller nodded: "Yes, his attitude is very firm."

Tang En clenched his fists and said solemnly: "That's the reason! Lei Shidong rejected our reasonable proposal, and instead agreed with Besta, then we must be prepared and wait for our counterattack! We have to fight Besta. Let’s start, and we can’t be soft on Lei Shidong, the mastermind behind the scenes!”

Robert Egger frowned. To be honest, he really didn't think there was any benefit in tearing up his face with Redstone. He hesitated and asked, "Dawn, what do you want to do?"

Tang Endao: "If a company wants to gain market recognition, in the general impression, it only has enough income and enough profit. However, for a great company, profit is not enough! It must be two-pronged, left-handed. Profit, right hand justice, both hands must be hard!"

"Left and right profit, right hand justice?"

Everyone listened and nodded.

Only companies that adhere to justice and continue to implement the world's mainstream values ​​can go a long way.

"Is it justice to overthrow Redstone?" Tosca Musk couldn't help asking.

Tang En smiled at her, "Redstone has many weaknesses, but nothing that can cause public outrage. But well... His subordinates may not necessarily be. George, tell me about your report."

At this time, George Paxton, who had been silent for the whole game, spoke up and said: "Les Moonves, vice president of Viacom Group and CEO of cbs, has been involved in more than 20 sexual assaults. , sexual harassment of female employees.”

Although there were not many words, there was thunder on the ground!

Les Moonves!

Good guy, Dunn is ruthless!

If the incident is true, Viacom's stock price may fall off a cliff.

Especially recently, Redstone is busy firing Viacom president Mayer Kamathin.

This would pay a large liquidated damages and cause turmoil.

If Dunn releases such explosive news after the dismissal is completed, Viacom's internal chaos will inevitably lead to a sharp drop in the stock price.

Everyone knows that Tang En, an assistant, has been helping him with some shady work.

But I didn't expect it to be so amazing!

Tang Enhuan looked at everyone's expressions and said lightly: "The reason why I tell everyone about this is to prepare you mentally and pay attention to maintaining the company's publicity. I said, we must uphold justice, what is this justice? ?"

Bill McNick said: "Rose Pictures."

Dunn said loudly: "That's right! To put it bluntly, it's feminism! After racial equality, feminism will be the next hot trend in the world. We can't be on the wrong side of this big wave. Not only can't we be on the wrong side. , we have to follow the trend and let New Universal Group become the vanguard of feminism in the entertainment industry !"

"I'm not afraid to tell everyone that starting next year, I will cooperate with feminist groups to launch a series of powerful actions to clear some cancers in the media and entertainment circles, including Les Moonves! Whether you're a feminist or not, sexual assault, sexual harassment, is always a shameful mistake!"

"Here, I also give you a warning. Inside New Universal, there are many female employees, especially Rose Films, which promotes feminist works. All employees are women. I hope you can stick to the bottom line of being a human being and don't do something illegal. behavior. If you want to maintain justice in the entertainment industry, you must first be self-disciplined!"

Dunn's remarks did not make it through.

But there were smart people present.

Everyone saw it.

Dunn is playing a big game.

He wants to use the slowly emerging feminism to plan greater interests for the New Universal Group!

Although this benefit is not real wealth, but having a strong word of mouth and a good reputation is equivalent to having wealth!

Barry Diller immediately reacted to Dunn's words and said solemnly: "Yes, we have heard too much about the entertainment industry! Since New Universal wants to set up a new benchmark and create a new pattern, it will There must be some restraint on women's issues! The bad habits of the past must not appear! Don't blame me for being ruthless, whoever dares to harass female employees in the company will be fired! This article can be written into every employee in the contract!"

Looking at the righteous Barry Diller, the others were all contemptuous and cursed in their hearts.

nonsense!

Of course you don't care anymore, you like men!

Are there few male models around you?
