Chapter 368： Donna Lande's report (1)

When he arrived at the company, it was already 9 o'clock in the morning. As usual, Yang Cheng visited the headline department and the forum company. After enjoying the emperor's power of visiting his territory, he returned to the top office.

Susu came in and put an iPad in front of Yang Cheng, "Boss, this is today's agenda."

Yang Cheng took it and took a glance, then frowned, "What's the matter with Jerry Kushler's appointment?"

Susu replied without hesitation, "Mr. Jerry Kushler called as the CEO of The New York Observer to make an appointment and said that you have something to discuss with the boss."

Yang Cheng brows puzzled, drank the coffee that Susu had brought up, and pondered for a moment, "Talk to the secretary of the other side, move the time to noon, and have lunch together."

He didn't want to see this guy, anyway, the matter has been settled, and the "New York Observer" reported that he was going to make it, unless Jerry Kushler came up with something of sufficient value in exchange.

But after pondering, Jerry Kushler doesn't seem to be a ignorant of current affairs. Under the circumstances that the overall situation is clearly set, he is still struggling, which is tantamount to speeding up his own death. Then why does he have to meet? Yang Cheng's curiosity that killed the nine cats was haunting her.

Susu saw that Yang Cheng didn't say a word, and continued to report, "Donna Lande, president of New Era Pictures, has made an appointment for this morning. The film group has been integrated. She thinks it's time to make a systematic report with you. "

Yang Cheng nodded and confirmed, "No problem, the itinerary will go according to your schedule. By the way, go and get me some food first. I haven't eaten breakfast yet."

A night of negative distance exercise consumes a lot of energy. If you don’t add some energy, you are worried that you will not have the energy to cope with the conversation for a while. Donna Lande is a capable man who he personally dug out, and is also an important piece of Yang Cheng's plan for Hollywood. Rand must always maintain the best condition in front of him, otherwise he will be easily despised by this proud strong woman.

Simply ate the breakfast prepared by Susu, nothing more than sandwiches, nothing new, just after rubbing the crumbs from the corners of her mouth, Donna Lande led Susu to the office.

Yang Cheng greeted her with enthusiasm, and after hugging the veneer, she seemed to ask with concern, "Donna, we didn't see each other for a few months, right? You still look so energetic."

Donna dressed very solemnly today, still speaking slowly, "Jason, oh no, you should be called the boss."

Yang Cheng didn't mind reaching out his hand, leading Donna to the sofa area, and personally brought the freshly ground coffee to Donna Ronde, jokingly, "If you don't mind, you can still call me jason. After all, are we friends? ?"

Donna chuckled and said, "Well, jason, I haven't rested in the past few months. The huge film and television group is not so easy to integrate. I suddenly felt that it was a mistake to move to the new era of film industry. After all, the work now is much more tiring than in the world."

Yang Cheng could see that although Donna was tired from talking, her face was filled with a fulfilling smile.

"But isn't it also a challenge to you? When you were in charge of Universal, Universal Pictures was already a leader in Hollywood. What you can do, even if it stands out, is just icing on the cake, at least in the eyes of outsiders, but The film industry in the new era is completely different. Everything started from scratch. From the very beginning, the film industry group was branded with your Donna Rand. What you can achieve in the end and whether you can surpass your old club depends entirely on you. It can be said that you Donna Rand is writing a new chapter in Hollywood history!"

Donna Lande smiled with satisfaction and confidence, "Then, I will use the best profit report to give back to you and live up to your trust!"

Yang Cheng waved his hand, "I believe you and look forward to this day coming soon. Now, I think you should report to me what kind of state the film group is currently in, right?"

Donna Lande put her smile away when she heard the words, restored her serious face, and began to introduce Yang Cheng one by one, "The first thing that bears the brunt is the Los Angeles headquarters of New Era Pictures."

After a pause, he took a sip of coffee, "I heard that you intend to use this building as the Los Angeles branch of New Times Media, which will integrate the Los Angeles offices of the Film Group, the Los Angeles Times and its various newspapers, as well as 4D Space. The western part of the company waited for resources, but in the end, due to various reasons, it was not determined to implement it, right?"

Yang Cheng spread his hands, "Yes, in fact, the main reason is funding. At present, the price of rebuilding a building in Los Angeles is not much different from the price of directly acquiring a building, but the building cycle is too long. In 2 years, don’t expect to officially settle in; and the money for the acquisition of the building will take some time to prepare, so after discussing with Ritz and Eddie, I decided to suppress this matter, wait for the right time, and then restart. ."

Donna Lande nodded thoughtfully, "If this is the case, everyone can only work in their own way and cannot form combat effectiveness."

"That's something that can't be helped." Yang Cheng also said helplessly.

Donna Lande leaned on the back of the sofa, knocking on Erlang’s legs gracefully, and said, “Then let me talk about the current situation of the New Era Film Industry. First, the most difficult to be integrated, but I also judge the future of the New Era Film Industry. The most important department-DreamWorks Animation has passed the painful period. With the help of Mr. Kasenborg, the internal integration was finally completed without any risk, but it is still in DreamWorks Animation’s headquarters office;"

I took another sip of coffee. "Secondly, Lionsgate’s copyright library, including Focus, is relatively scarce. I am afraid that it is less than a fraction of MGM’s. In my plan, I will continue to invest in small and medium-sized enterprises. Cost-effective movies break the inherent impression of the original Lionsgate horror and thriller movies. They include various genres and cover all viewing groups. At least the copyright library must be expanded to the level of six."

Yang Cheng listened earnestly and nodded repeatedly. Donna Lande continued, "Thirdly, the several films that Lionsgate and Focus have already cast have come to the end of shooting. They are not special effects blockbusters. Post-production will not take long. It is time. It’s time to discuss the issuance and launch the publicity plan. At present, we mainly rely on the distribution channels left by Lionsgate. How to say it is still a bit weak, but it is better than nothing, but this is not a long-term solution. Expansion of the distribution department must be made. On the agenda, and what our goal requires is global distribution capabilities, which requires a large amount of funding."

As soon as the voice fell, Yang Cheng answered, "The funds are okay. The parent company fully supports it. I will support it for a month. After a month, I will directly allocate US$500 million for the development of the film industry group. When it comes to global distribution capabilities, I dare not say anything else. I can provide you with some help in Country Z. Don’t forget, we are teaming up with Ali Pictures to acquire cinema chains in the mainland of Z. Ali Pictures is backed by the largest CY Entertainment has established a strong foothold in South Korea. CY Entertainment is capable of performing all the functions of cinema, production, and distribution!"
