Michael Eisner walked out of Disney's internal screening room with a livid face.
He really hated Harvey Weinstein more and more.
This stubborn and rude big fat man is really stupid!
It is true that in the past few years, Miramax has made a lot of money for Disney, especially the 5% dividend received by Disney in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, which has already taken Disney's acquisition of Miramax's $80 million. Spend, earn back.
However, Michael Eisner is a guy with high requirements and high taste.
His Disney must not only make money, but also make money beautifully, and make money in a way that conforms to Disney's values!
During the period when Disney just acquired abc, why did abc's performance continue to decline and was almost brought down by cbs?
A large part of the reason is due to Michael Eisner's personal insistence that he cut off many TV shows that did not conform to Disney's values, but had great ratings and made money!
In his view, Disney's brand value is more beneficial to the pursuit of future interests.
However, now Harvey Weinstein has recommended him again and again a film, a documentary, and a documentary involving politics - "Fahrenheit 9/11".
This idiot!
"Michael, this is a perfect story! With my many years of understanding of the TV market, this movie will be well-received by the market and make a lot of money for us!"
Harvey Weinstein didn't give up and followed Michael Eisner.
"Enough!" Michael Eisner waved his hand, holding back his anger, "I remember I said it a year ago, not only me, but many people have said, pay attention to the content, pay attention to the scale. , Disney would rather owe it than release it!"
Harvey Weinstein is also very angry.
From the perspective of a producer, the explosive effect of the film "Fahrenheit 911" can be described as earth-shattering, especially in some countries where conspiracy theories are popular, such as Europe and Asia, it will be very marketable.
This movie will make a lot of money for Disney!
Unexpectedly, after the last internal preview, including executives such as Peter Murphy and Brad Epstein, they all refused and refused to release the film.
Exasperated, Harvey Weinstein even called George Mitchell, Disney's vice chairman and chairman of the board of management. He is a Democrat and a Nobel Peace Prize winner. He should sympathize with a documentary critical of the Bush administration.
Unexpectedly, George Mitchell also refused.
Harvey Weinstein also asked his lawyer, David Boyce, to negotiate, but nothing came of it.
Michael Eisner is the last hope.
Harvey Weinstein begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, and finally pulled him into the screening room, but he did not expect that the same result would come again.
Very poor!
"The production report for "Fahrenheit 911" was submitted last year and passed the review, and the company has been reimbursed for the film."
"Do you think I don't know? Brad said that they didn't study those invoices seriously, and you...have been sneaking around and didn't provide a complete production report!"
"What nonsense!"
Harvey Weinstein is going crazy.
The film "Fahrenheit 911", the complexity and difficulty of the filming process, can be said to exceed all the films he has taken over in the past few decades! Especially the confidential work, it is very hard.
This is a challenge to the White House. It's very hard work!
Unexpectedly, the group of **** executives at Disney could not see the hard work of the film workers.
This is interfering with creative freedom!
Don't look at Harvey Weinstein is a heinous bastard, but in the pursuit of film ideas, he is very pure.
Michael Eisner stopped, turned his head to look at him, and said with a serious face: "I will say it one last time, this movie cannot be released!"
"Why? I need a reason!" Harvey Weinstein blushed, and his anger was about to erupt.
"Why?" Michael Eisner sneered. "Politics, politics, politics! Harvey, where's your brain?"
Harvey Weinstein said annoyed: "This is the reason for hypocrisy! ABC broadcasts conservative commentators Rush Limbaugh and Hin Hannity every day!"
"Enough! This is not your topic of concern!"
Michael Eisner's distaste for him is beyond words.
You know, the recent CBS sexual assault scandal has seriously affected the overall share price of Viacom Group!
Last year, the scandals of Les Moonves and Charlie Rose were exposed, and Viacom’s market value had evaporated by more than $5 billion.
Now, the black comedian Bill Cosby has done something again, and the stock price of cbs has been further pulled down.
With the huge social influence of the Bill Cosby incident and the disgraceful image that cbs played in this incident, it is conceivable that Viacom's market value will evaporate at least another 5 billion US dollars!
What is this concept?
Viacom's market value will fall below $30 billion!
The media empire is on the verge of collapse.
On the one hand, Michael Eisner was excited about Dunn's thunderous tactics. The repeated sexual assault incidents on CBS indirectly contributed to the continuous rise of ABC's ratings.
Now, abc is already the number one TV station in the United States!
The market share has reached 32.7%!
On the other hand, he also felt a trace of fear.
The banner of feminism is really powerful.
Especially when it comes to sexual assault incidents, this will greatly arouse social outrage, which will lead to the evaporation of huge market value.
Disney's values are great, the atmosphere inside is great, and there are more female employees than New Universal.
The only hidden danger is Harvey Weinstein!
Insiders in Hollywood have long heard of Harvey Weinstein's actions over the past decade or so.
Dunn is constantly talking about purifying the atmosphere of the entertainment industry and eliminating the worms in the entertainment industry. Harvey Weinstein... is the biggest cancer!
"If you have energy, pay more attention to the New Global Women's Rights Foundation, that's your job!" Michael Eisner scolded him bluntly without giving him the slightest face.
Harvey Weinstein's old face suddenly turned red like a monkey's butt, and he couldn't say anything, "You...you...what do you mean?"
"Don't hold back Disney!"
Michael Eisner gave him a vicious look.
Then, just walk away.
Harvey Weinstein almost vomited blood!
Fat body, shaking with anger.
He is not reconciled, he will not be reconciled!
...
Ted Turner is not reconciled, he is not reconciled!
He originally wanted to teach Tang En a lesson, but he didn't expect that he would get hotter!
Even Time Warner's board of directors criticized him, thinking that his self-righteous means to involve Time Warner was a very stupid act.
Ted Turner, whose authority was severely damaged in Time Warner, has once again lost his voice after this incident.
"Don't ask for MGM's film and television rights, you have nothing to say?" Ted Turner called Warner Bros. chairman and CEO Barry Mayer in a bad tone.
Barry Mayer was very helpless and said, "We shouldn't mess with Dunn at this stage."
Ted Turner laughed angrily, "Shouldn't provoke him? When "The Matrix 3" was cut off by "Harry Potter 2" at the box office, the revenue was not as expected, who was complaining to me angrily about Dunn Greedy and shameless? Now that something has happened, you want to stay out of it?"
"Cough cough." Barry Mayer blushed and said indifferently, "Ted, I was just a whimper. In fact, Warner and New Universal have never been competitors."
Totally shocked by Ted Turner's shamelessness towards Barry Mayer.
If it wasn't to maintain Warner's status as the boss in Hollywood, or to stand on the stage for Barry Mayer, would he embarrass Dunn at the "Lord of the Rings 3" celebration reception?
No injustice!
He also stepped back!
Well, now it's bad, Ted Turner is the culprit for MGM, and Warner wants to stay out of it?
Do you want to lose face?
Ted Turner felt humiliated, his voice torn: "Barry, I'm just asking you one last thing, you really don't intend to speak up?"
He is angry!
He was furious!
If Warner Bros., the Hollywood giant, doesn't speak up then no matter how he explains it in front of the media, it won't change the public's perception of him - teaming up with Kirk Kerkorian to destroy MGM Industry.
Kirk Kerkorian may not care, but he does!
He is a media tycoon, do you still want his old face?
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
Then I heard Barry Mayer sigh heavily and say, "Ted, at this stage, Dunn is possessed by God, and no one can afford to offend him! But it doesn't matter, I also have the means to teach him a lesson."
"Um?"
Ted Turner looked slightly better.
Barry Mayer said: "I heard that Marvel Studios' Daredevil 2 is about to start preparations, and it just so happens that we have plans to make a sequel to Batman 2. Afraid of the power of Marvel Studios, he adjusted the schedule of "Batman 1". Facts have proved that Batman does not need to be afraid of any opponents! "Batman 1"'s box office is 100 million US dollars higher than "Daredevil 1" ."
Ted Turner sneered and said, "So...you plan to release "Batman 2" and "Daredevil 2" at the same time to beat Dunn in the box office market?"
"That's right!"
"When will the movie be released?"
"Summer 2006."
Hearing Barry Mayer's words, Ted Turner almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
Why do not you go to hell!
year 2006……
At that time, Lao Tzu will be completely nailed to the pillar of shame in history!
Rumors that scourge MGM Pictures will turn three into tigers and become real historical facts!
asshole!
Bunch of assholes!
