One-on-one Hollywood 862 author Qianduxue full text 2848 words
The high-profile meeting of the MPAA has spread. The content of the meeting, of course, was not the gathering of industry leaders to criticize Tang En. Instead, Dunn Walker personally went to South Korea and proposed a series of blockbuster proposals, which kicked off the development of Hollywood's special effects industry. All external publicity is erecting a positive image of Dunn. However, this is just the attitude of the MPAA, not necessarily the attitude of those bigwigs. Especially Redstone! "Boss, it's about intelligent service, Barry has already told me, and I'm working on it." Kevin Turner was specially called to the office by Dunn. Dunn shook his head, "How's the competition between Netflix and Blockbuster?" Kevin Turner was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "One-sided." "One-sided?" "Since last year, Blockbuster also launched online and offline monthly memberships. After the system, the performance revenue has dropped by 30%. On the contrary, after the price reduction of Netflix, the number of users has increased rapidly, and has exceeded 13 million." "How many users of Bestda?" "It's about 38 million, but most of them are online. Down users. Best’s online website… is completely incomparable to Netflix. In the current situation, Best is already in trouble.” Kevin Turner is quite proud. Leading Netflix and defeating Blockbuster, the leader in the video rental industry at the time, was his most notable achievement after he took office as the CEO of the New Universal Group's event and entertainment department. Although the dead camel is bigger than the horse, the volume of Blockbuster is still larger than that of Netflix, but ... Blockbuster has lost 520 million US dollars in the first two quarters of this year. Completely plunged into operational crisis. At the beginning, in order to suppress the rising star Netflix, Blockbuster launched a membership subscription system, thus continuing to occupy the leading position in the disc and DVD rental business, in an attempt to eliminate all hidden dangers. Unexpectedly, after Blockbuster launched the monthly subscription system, the online platform was useless, and no users would log on to Blockbuster's website. They prefer to rent movies at Blockbuster's offline stores. Online users prefer Netflix, because Netflix has a more advanced system for pushing movies, and there is a supporting IMDB website for analyzing and commenting on movies. In order to launch a monthly membership subscription system, Blockbuster also banned the late payment penalty policy, which originally accounted for a large portion of its total revenue. But now? Blockbuster's monthly subscription system has completely failed, and its online traffic is getting lower and lower, and it cannot pose any threat to Netflix. On the contrary, the "late payment fee", which was the lifeline of the economy in the past, has been cancelled because of this... This is definitely shooting myself in the foot. Tang En asked calmly: "Will it go bankrupt?" "Huh?" Kevin Turner was stunned for a moment, frowning, "It's difficult. Blockbuster has a huge number of users, and the online video business has not yet developed. , Disc rental is still a common choice for users to watch movies. In the final analysis, the number of netizens is not enough." "Given a specific time, Blockbuster must die!" Dunn's tone was very firm. In this MPAA meeting, he passed the test calmly, but it did not mean that he would take it lightly. Ted Turner thought slowly and said, "The day that Facebook makes a profit will be the time when Blockbuster goes bankrupt." Dunn almost laughed. This guy is really slick. However, he didn't insist, and instead asked: "How is the preparation on the technical team?" "The equipment at MIT is already in place, and it is still being debugged." Kevin Turner didn't want to think about it. 's blurted out, this is the big boss's movie, he must pay close attention to it. Dunn will start filming "Avengers" at the end of next month, and green screen will be used extensively in the filming of the film. Not only that, Dunn will take the lead in using many advanced shooting techniques. Many of them are technologies that James Cameron looked for and integrated in preparation for "Avatar", such as real-time preview technology, such as headgear facial expression capture technology. Although these technologies are not yet mature enough, they are better than nothing. "The Avengers" is the first summary of the Marvel superhero movie series, which is of great significance. The director is Dunn Walker again, and he is bound to make something different. 3D shooting is impossible, imax shooting... too much trouble. However, the use of the latest digital photography technology, Dunn is very eager. Once successful, it will open a new era of commercial films! Dunn and Kevin Turner chatted a lot, and also talked about the development of the facebook website. Mark Zuckerberg's character is really a bit paranoid. In just a few months, he has quarreled with Kevin Turner, his immediate boss, several times. However, the technical level is really good. He is Facebook's ace technician, and his programming level is even better than that of many engineers who have worked for more than ten years. In this era of technological explosion and technology respect, talents like Mark Zuckerberg are the most reused. Otherwise, Kevin Turner will strongly suggest that Dunn fire him. At this moment, Tosca Musk walked into Dunn's office gently, with a touch of joy on his face, and said with a smile: "Don, the schedule of "Princess Diaries 2" has been adjusted." "Oh How?" Dunn's mind moved slightly. Is Michael Eisner about to react? The Princess Diaries 2 is a Disney movie starring Anne Hathaway. When "Princess Diaries 1", Anne Hathaway was still a newcomer in the industry. With her pure and beautiful image, she was deeply loved by fans and achieved very amazing results in the box office market. Now, Anne Hathaway is already a quasi-first-line female star in Hollywood, with a great reputation and a stronger appeal. It can be said that "Princess Diaries 2" is a major project of Disney this year. Tosca Musk said: "The original Disney arrangement, "Princess Diaries 2" will be released on August 11, trying to avoid the summer blockbuster blockbuster, to be on the safe side. However, just now Disney has said that "" The schedule of "Princess Diaries 2" will be 2 weeks earlier and will be released on July 30." "July 30..." There was a smile on the corner of Dunn's mouth, but he couldn't help feeling that this Michael Eisner, Really a character! Can bend and stretch, really qualified! Maybe outsiders don't know the inside story of Disney's change of the schedule of "Princess Diaries 2", but those who have attended the MPAA meeting must understand what happened. Especially with such a delicate schedule as July 30. This summer, Paramount will feature two commercial blockbusters: "King Arthur" and "The Unfortunate Adventures of Raymond Snitch." UU reading Among them, "King Arthur" has been released, and the North American box office can exceed 30 million US dollars, and the results are very dismal. Paramount put all its hopes on "The Unfortunate Adventures of Raymond Snitch" in an attempt to stop losses. The film's release date is July 31st! Disney adjusted the schedule of "Princess Diaries 2", and its meaning is self-evident! This is Michael Eisner's favor, he will let Disney fight for Paramount, risk the film's failure and the box office reduction, forcibly suppress a wave of Redstone, and give Dunn an outlet! Of course, mainly to apologize. Before the MPAA meeting, he was delusional about threatening a wave of rights to the film adaptation of "Fantastic Four". For Michael Eisner's attitude, Dunn is very satisfied. Hollywood movie schedules are often reserved a year in advance, and are determined half a year in advance. Unless there is a particularly major accident, the schedule will not be changed. Because this will involve the arrangement of the cinema line and the arrangement of the distribution company, it will be very troublesome. "The Princess Diaries 2" will be released in less than two months. Michael Eisner can forcibly change the movie schedule at this time regardless of the cost. It can be said that he is sincere. In particular, for a mid-range production like "The Princess Diaries 2" to reckon with a mega-production like "The Unfortunate Adventures of Raymond Snitch", there is a great risk of failure. "This Michael Eisner has some courage!" Dunn scolded with a laugh, then glanced at Kevin Turner, and said meaningfully: "Kevin, it may take a few years for Blockbuster to go bankrupt. Time, but Viacom, the parent company of Blockbuster at the time... I'm afraid it won't last long." Kevin Turner was a little surprised, "What do you mean?" Dunn snorted coldly, "Viacom must be dismantled!" Please remember this book's first domain name: . Nine Heavens God Emperor mobile version reading website:
