Chapter 1168： heads up hollywood

Tang En delivered an important speech: "The grading of "Break Up Men and Women" seems to be very small and has a major impact. This means that the other five major film companies have formed a unity and jointly control New Universal."

At times like this, men are often cautious, while female executives are bold and aggressive. Donna Langley said coldly: "This kind of behavior is very shameless. I felt it in the first two months, we are in family entertainment. The operation of the company has encountered difficulties, and the schedule arrangement has been restricted. Now it is good, this is the end of the picture. "

"This is not a market economy." Amy Pascal frowned and shook her head.

Tang En said: "If it is a fair market economy, do we still need to be so nervous? To put it bluntly, if there is a fair competition, they are all tied together, and they will not be New Universal's opponents!"

This is true.

In the past 12 months, the total North American box office is 9.28 billion US dollars.

Among them, New Universal's films accounted for 5.35 billion US dollars, accounting for 57.8% of the entire market!

In the past 12 months, the total global box office is 25.3 billion US dollars, of which the global box office of New Universal Group is 9.5 billion US dollars, accounting for 37.5% of the global total!

Clear data is the most convincing.

New Universal is popular and spicy, making a lot of money. They are also Hollywood giants, but the other five film companies can only drink soup behind their buttocks, and it is strange that they do not resist.

Barry Diller opened his mouth and said: "This thing, they did not do it right. Hollywood can have today's great situation, because the six Hollywood majors have formed a community of interests, using MPAA as a platform to unify externally, rather than engage in internal strife. Destruction. If the existing market mechanism is broken and the rules are broken, it will not benefit anyone.”

Bill McNick also said solemnly: "Indeed, this matter... It's not too small, not too big, there may not be a solution. You can talk about it from family to family. I believe that friendly negotiation is a matter for everyone. expected result.”

"Ha ha!"

The smile on the corner of Dunn's mouth was rather contemptuous.

Nina Jacobson is about to give birth. She has a big belly and came to attend today's important meeting. Dunn had promised her a long time ago that she would succeed Bill McNick as the chairman and CEO of Dunn Pictures in the future.

She is very young, dares to fight, and has tough methods. She couldn't get used to Bill McNick, who was a good man. She snorted coldly: "Everyone is looking forward to friendly negotiations? I don't think so! The five of them will do it. What is the purpose of today's scene? I am afraid that the purpose is to get the result of a 'friendly negotiation'? Now that the pocket formation has been laid, let's jump in directly?"

Bill McNick's face was sinking and he was very displeased. He immediately pulled out a cigarette and wanted to smoke.

A place like Hollywood is similar to Wall Street. It advocates power, but it is not like the concept of equality in Silicon Valley, where small employees can quarrel with the CEO. Leaders often hold meetings while smoking cigarettes, without regard for the presence of women.

This is a long-standing habit.

As for the movie, in the process of creative conception, the creators will definitely be smoking cigarettes and thinking hard one by one. That's why almost everyone in Hollywood, male or female, smokes.

Nina Jacobson also smoked occasionally, but now it's different, and now she said rudely: "Mr. McNick, please don't smoke, there are babies here!"

Bill McNick angrily threw the cigarette on the conference table and made a "bang" sound.

In the conference room, it was very quiet.

Everyone can feel it, because the "Break Up Men and Women" matter, regardless of the external environment, has caused huge conflicts within New Universal.

The relationship between conservatives and hardliners has sclerosed.

This is probably one of their goals, right?

The atmosphere in the conference room was a little frozen, a little stiff.

Although everyone here is the core management personnel of the film business, the current situation seems to be developing in a bad direction.

Once it's not handled well, and the interior splits first, it's funny.

Dunn tapped his fingers on the table, and after attracting everyone's attention, he said unhurriedly: "A few years ago, British Prime Minister Tony Blair issued a policy. He has received many complaints that many patients are When it comes to making doctor appointments, it's often two or three days later. Blair made a decision that all doctor appointments must be done within 48 hours."

"Obviously, Prime Minister Blair has good intentions and wants to solve the problem of patient appointments. However, he ignores that when a policy is introduced to solve a single goal, it is often hugely disruptive to the market. After the policy is issued, patients Has the problem of long wait times for appointments resolved? No!"

“As a direct result of the policy, doctors are not answering the phone because they simply can’t make an appointment within 48 hours. Doctors need to spend a lot of time dealing with sudden illnesses and events, such as car accidents, heart attacks, etc. The so-called two-to-three-day appointment period is more of a spare time for doctors to deal with such temporary emergencies.”

"If you use policy to run on this backup time, you can only stop the appointment mechanism. Prime Minister Blair wanted to protect the power of patients, but it backfired. He just caused the most trouble for patients. Fortunately, now this decree already solved."

There is no profound truth to this story, it just illustrates the meaning of the market.

Robert Iger nodded and said: "Yeah, the market is the market, and any action to intervene in the market through executive orders is a disruption to the market. The direction of the market can only be determined by the mechanism of the market. The matter of "Break Up Men and Women" On the surface, it seems that the five major Hollywood giants are working together to restrict New Universal, but in fact... it is also restricting themselves! Their loss of interests may not be less than ours. I don't think their alliance can be maintained for a long time~ www.novelhall.com~ Making less money is better than making no money."

"Well said!" Dunn couldn't help applauding him, "No matter how little you make, it's better than no money. This is their fatal point!"

"Fatal point?"

Everyone was suspicious and surprised.

Can't understand the inner meaning of Dunn's use of this word.

Barry Diller was secretly relieved, because he felt a calm attitude from Dunn's words.

That's fine.

Don't make a fuss!

It's not good for anyone to make a fuss.

Peace of mind makes money.

But I didn't expect that Dunn wouldn't play cards according to common sense at all.

"They don't hesitate to destroy the market and use this kind of conspiracy to check and balance. What are we afraid of? Don't they want to destroy the market? Well, what's the point of making a little trouble? If you want to destroy it, just destroy it cleanly, everyone. One shot and two scattered! The big deal is to break the existing Hollywood order and rebuild a Hollywood! With the strength of New Universal, it will definitely be the founder of the new order of New Hollywood!"

Dunn's words are like diamonds, and they are powerful.

Frightened all the conservatives.

What is this for?

Overturn the table?

Do you really want to take on Hollywood with one versus five?

Oh, God!

crazy!
