Head to Head Hollywood Chapter 771 is going to turn the world upside down! Lionsgate is a strange existence in Hollywood. As early as the beginning of its establishment, the big boss of a banker from Canada made a big wish to create a world in Hollywood. As soon as the company was established, it started a series of acquisitions, won many small offset printing equipment and publishers in the United States, and even set up its own distribution department. You know, this is something that neither Lucasfilm nor DreamWorks dared to think about, and even MGM lost the ability to distribute independently. So here comes the question? So obviously competing with the Big Six, how can Lionsgate survive in Hollywood? Because of the century of change in Hollywood! This is an opportunity. Around 2000, Hollywood went through years of turmoil. The integration of Warner and AOL is overwhelmed; Columbia Pictures is working hard to turn losses into profits and restore vitality; Universal Pictures is in the process of continuous sales, restructuring, and management changes; Disney is in the second dangerous period in history. Even Roy Disney launched the "Save Disney" campaign; Paramount's performance is getting worse and worse, it is busy with the "Revival Paramount" plan, and the parent company Viacom is even more devastated; 20th Century Fox, fired After the meritorious veteran Bill McNick, the internal chaos... It was during this turbulent period that DreamWorks had a comfortable life for a few years, and Lionsgate also developed smoothly. Including Tang En Films, it is also in this gap, and they have the opportunity to grow up by dealing with each other and both sides. Of course, even so, Lionsgate did not dare to challenge the traditional forces in Hollywood, and could only focus on some crooked movie themes. Religion, horror, crime, shoddy action movies and other B-movie themes. The development is not bad, at least much stronger than DreamWorks. "With Lionsgate's business strategy, controversial films like "Fahrenheit 911" are their favorite. The owner of Lionsgate is Canadian, so I'm afraid they won't care about Hollywood." Barry May Ye clearly analyzed the results. This made Dunn nodded secretly. In the previous life, "Fahrenheit 911" was distributed in North America by Lionsgate Pictures. Michael Eisner, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up and said indifferently: "If you don't want to do it, you will never be able to do it! Warner's style is really hypocritical and disgusting." Barry Mayer smiled embarrassingly. Tang En waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "What would a Canadian do? Another major shareholder of Lionsgate is also the biggest supporter of human connections - John Malone!" "John Malone..." Barry Mayer's eyes narrowed slightly. Pick, the godfather of American cable TV! Tang En said: "Don't worry, if it's just a Disney, the old Malone may be willing to bite the bullet and release the movie in order to make money. After all, his industry is a bit far from Disney. However, with New Universal and Warner, it will be different, old man. Malone won't be so confused." Barry Mayer turned into a bitter face. John Malone's industry has little contact with Disney, and has little contact with New Universal, but Warner is a big customer! This is obviously Dunn together with Michael Eisner, wrapped in Warner to come forward! This is using me as a gunman! Seeing that he refused to agree, Dunn frowned and said displeasedly: "Barry, don't forget, during the Oscars, the digital versions of the two films "The Last Samurai" and "Mystic River" were spread online. , I helped you maintain the justice of intellectual copyright! For this reason, I also specially asked Dolby Laboratories to develop a DVD encryption system! I have never read about Ted Turner and Marvel comics. Pay off the old debts!" ​​This is a combination of grace and power! Dunn and Michael Eisner, both big bosses of Media Group, are tycoons on the same level as Time Warner CEO Richard Parsons. And he is only the CEO of Warner Bros., mainly responsible for the film business. In terms of level, he can only be on the same level as Bill McNick of New Universal and Rich Ross of Disney. There is a difference! Thinking of two years ago, when Tang En, as a newcomer who had just arrived, recommended his whimsical investment business to himself... hey! Barry Mayer sighed and nodded with emotion, "Okay, John's side... I'll let you know." Dunn and Michael Eisner glanced at each other faintly, both revealing a touch of mirth . There is a feeling that the trick has succeeded. Dunn smiled with satisfaction, and said meaningfully: "The third thing is much simpler. You know, whether it is "New York Times" or "Fahrenheit 911", there is a shadow of a person behind it." Harvey Weinstein?" Barry Mayer's eyes widened, he immediately thought of something and was shocked, "You...you want to deal with Harvey? No way?" Dunn blinked, strangely Look at him, "Isn't it?" "No." Barry Mayer lowered his voice, "I heard that he...is very politically connected, and this election, he also donated a lot of money..." Dunn His face turned cold immediately, "So, such a political speculator must be won! Hollywood is the world of Hollywood, not the territory of the White House! He wants to take such a crooked way, no! You don't think that the Democratic Party is a group of people. Will you stand up for him? Don’t worry, politicians are a bunch of **** who eat people and don’t spit out bones. When things get bigger, they might even add fuel to the fire in order to draw a line.” Barry Mayer was careful again looked at Michael Eisner. It stands to reason... Harvey Weinstein is his subordinate. Just got taken? What about Disney's decency? What Michael Eisner hated most was dealing with politicians, followed by shareholders on Wall Street. He said solemnly: "On this point, I agree with Dunn! Movies are movies, if you want to play political tricks, go to two You can go to the White House, but don't come to Hollywood!" Barry Mayer secretly exclaimed. This Disney king is really domineering and ruthless! Harvey Weinstein is definitely the number one figure in the film circle. Such a general, who said he gave up, gave up? Sure enough, then I heard Dunn say: "You must have heard of Harvey Weinstein's various actions, he is a criminal! Such a person, Hollywood must not cover up, they must report! They must expose!" "Report Expose?" Barry Mayer reacted immediately, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. It's the same thing that's going to be used on Les Moonves and Bill Cosby, and again on Harvey Weinstein! This is not abandonment at all, it is to sentence him to death! This Dunn is too cruel! "Harvey... He's not Bill Cosby, and his influence on the industry is even bigger than Woody Allen. This incident... I'm afraid it will cause turmoil, and the entire entertainment industry will be affected..." Barry Mayer took a deep breath and said timidly. Dunn smiled: "I helped you once with the pirated DVD, and I tolerated you twice about Ted Turner and the comics. It's not too much to ask you to do me three small favors, right?" Ye is about to cry, can this be the same? Not a level at all, okay? First thing, get the New York Times! God, that's one of the top three most influential newspapers in America! The second thing, get Fahrenheit 911. How much favor would it take to convince John Malone? The third thing, which is even more terrifying, is to get Harvey Weinstein! There are prominent figures in the industry, who does not know that Harvey Weinstein is behind the Democratic Party? This is going to turn the sky upside down! This is a revolution! How can you promise? Michael Eisner spoke coldly again, sending out a sweet date, "Miramax has a subsidiary company, you must know - Emperor Gate Pictures. Emperor Gate Pictures is responsible for the production and distribution of horror and Thriller films have performed well in the past few years. However, films of this type have seriously deviated from Disney's values. Without Harvey Weinstein, there is no need to exist anymore~www.novelhall .com~ Barry Mayer's eyes lit up instantly, where is the bitter look just now, his face showed a touch of ruddy, and he asked in surprise: "Are you willing to sell Dimen Pictures? "Don't look at him pretending to be a grandson in front of the two bosses, but he's not stupid! The value of Dimen Pictures is really too great! It's even bigger than Miramax, who lacks Harvey Weinstein. !The films under Dimen Pictures include "Scream" series, "Murdering Life" series, "Ghost Chasing Soul" series, etc., as well as "Island Horror", "Sensory Game", "Hacker" "The Pursuit" and other well-known works. In addition, Dimen Pictures has also bought out the North American copyrights of a large number of Hong Kong films, "Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng", "Fang Shiyu", "Flying Eagle Project", "Swordsman", "Police Story" " and so on. These Hong Kong films with two kung fu superstars, Jack Chen and Jet Li, will have successive follow-up copyright income, and even have the opportunity to be released in theaters! In 2000, "Drunken Fist 2" " was released in North America, and the box office was 11.56 million US dollars; in 2001, "Young Huang Feihong: Iron Horse" was released in North America, and the box office reached 14.69 million US dollars... Compared with these visible benefits, there is the most important point. ——Talent! Harvey Weinstein has flourished in the independent film circle. In addition to his own ability, he has also built an elite team, led by him and his younger brother Bob Weinstein.
