Chapter 1175 Elizabeth, the media princess of the cheating father

If you are not crazy at the age of twenty, you have no ambition, and if you are still crazy at the age of thirty, you have no ability.

James's sister Elizabeth is in her thirties, but she is not the kind of person with brains, and sometimes she does things without thinking through her brain, which is a very strange thing. And she is the kind of person who has great ambitions, so in such a situation, she is a little sharp when she does things.

Dealing with her second brother, she is obviously more keen on using offensive methods. When presiding over the preparation of the movie "I Robot", Elizabeth even said in front of the camera and said brightly on TV: "This movie has a mouse of 100 million, I hope it will become a classic in the future, I believe that it will be much better than my second brother's movie, I invited a big-name star, and Will Smith has almost agreed to star in this movie."

I believe it will become a classic sci-fi movie like Men in Black. ”

This is full of his own self-confidence, and it is also full of irony for his brother, anyway, it is not very cool to see James, and directly declares war on his second brother, this is Elizabeth, a rich girl who is sharp and does not know the height of the sky.

When he saw the news, Ye Ming was drinking coffee with James in a villa in Beverly Hills, he glanced at James and said, "It seems that Elizabeth looks older than you, she should be your sister, right?"

For a long time, Ye Ming had never met Elizabeth Murdoch herself, and James had always said that Elizabeth was his sister, but it seemed that this guy lied.

James immediately shrugged his shoulders and said, "Yes, Elizabeth is indeed my sister, older than me and my eldest brother. But Elizabeth had always thought of herself as a little daughter, and was always fighting with us brothers for things, and besides, she thought that we two should let him, so Lachlan and I thought so. She's supposed to be a younger sister, and it seems that my father thinks so, too. ”

This is really enough confusion for the characters, Ye Ming shrugged his shoulders and said: "Maybe the way of thinking of Westerners is different from mine, God, what is this." Elizabeth is actually your eldest sister, well, I have to say, your eldest sister is a good politician, at least she is very aggressive when she gives speeches. ”

James was very affirmative: "I think so, too. So, in a situation like this, I need to focus on him. This is more like my eldest sister, and in front of reporters, I actually belittle my younger brother, so I think she seems to be my sister. ”

Ye Ming looked at Elizabeth in front of the camera, who was already in her thirties, and seemed to be so impulsive when she spoke, especially when she said that although it was an attack on James. But it can also be seen that she is not very satisfied with her father. Full of hostility.

Ye Ming thought for a while and said, "It seems that your sister is not very satisfied with the arrangement of this matter, so I think you are not very satisfied with your father's arrangement?"

James took a sip of coffee and said, "You don't want to talk about this, I was also trying to ask you about the situation, in fact, my father arranged for us to plan these two movies." Naturally, you won't give us all the money all at once?"

Ye Ming nodded, and said very agreeably: "This is natural, in such a situation, if it is said that the money will be given to you, then it will be like this at a time." Anyone can do a good job, as long as you are not a loser, have money, have a script, and it is not difficult to coordinate a movie, what is difficult is to integrate the relationship between all aspects, it seems that your father is still relatively satisfied with your performance in Hong Kong City, so in such a situation, it is considered a chance to show yourself. ”

Ye Ming's words were also agreed by James, and he said with a wry smile: "That's right, my father actually meant something like this, and on such a question, he gave each of us two-thirds of the money."

My budget for this movie was before 130 million to 160 million, so my father gave me a relatively small amount, two-thirds of 140 million, and gave me a hundred thousand dollars, of course, it was not given all at once, but it would be given to me in batches according to the progress of the movie.

And my sister, well, my sister, got 70 million, and her budget was almost 100 million. This is where she is not satisfied, her father gives me more money and gives her less, so she expresses some dissatisfaction on TV. This is also very normal. ”

Patriarchy, this is not only in the East, but in the West, in fact, it has always been in such a state, if Elizabeth is the eldest son as the eldest daughter, then it is no accident, he is Murdoch's heir.

But because she is a daughter, it is almost impossible for her to inherit Murdoch's News Corporation.

At this moment, Ye Ming was speechless, there were some things that he could just listen to, and he couldn't interfere, this was Murdoch's housework, and it was impossible for him to want outsiders to meddle in his housework casually.

And James thought for a while and then said: "Actually, my eldest sister is doing this for a reason, she wants to show the public her tough side, because she wants to divorce and marry another married man, this matter my father is very unhappy, almost said to take back her project." ”

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I remember that on the plane, I heard someone talking about similar news, it seems that your cheap brother-in-law is Freud's great-grandson, isn't it?"

Matthew Freud, this man was a master of psychoanalysis, and his great-grandfather was a famous celebrity in the West, Sigmund Freud. "The Interpretation of Dreams" is the work of Freud. Known as the greatest psychologist in the West.

But the problem is that both Elizabeth Murdoch and Matthew Freud have families, and it can be said that both of them are engaged in extramarital affairs, which Murdoch does not want to see, and has always opposed his daughter's relationship.

Of course, now that Elizabeth is given such a project, Murdoch did not fail to make Elizabeth calm down and think about the reason for the relationship first.

Murdoch's approach, of course, was doomed to fail. Think of this. Ye Ming was a little speechless, Murdoch had an astonishing fortune and built a powerful news empire, but I have to say that he was not very successful in managing his children.

Whether it is the eldest daughter Elizabeth or the eldest son Lachlan, they all have a tendency to fall out with him.

Although James didn't want to admit it, he still nodded and said, "That's right." It's Matthew Freud, this guy is also a married man, and my sister is also a married woman, and this matter has been in an uproar, which makes my father very dissatisfied. But Elizabeth didn't care about that, and I think Elizabeth would have won in the end.

She is such a character person, she must find ways to get what she wants. ”

To this big sister of herself. James still knows very well, although his father is against it, although this relationship is not favored, but in the end, the eldest sister must insist on her own point of view and marry Matthew Floyd.

This is an inevitable thing, and why both James himself and Lachlan think that Elizabeth is like a younger sister, and there are a few adults who can do such things.

Ye Ming smiled and said, "These are not what you are worried about, what your father should be worried about." Of course, you are not a child, you are an adult. Knowing what she is grouping, emotionally she may be victorious, but in your father's eyes, she will be a symbol of disobedience, and such a move is actually not a good thing for Elizabeth.

After all, she disobeyed your father. This is enough to make Elizabeth make a bad impression in the eyes of your father, and this is also very good for you, and you have to fully grasp this point. ”

The grievances of the wealthy have always been very cruel, and those who fail are destined to leave in disgrace. Lachlan, for example, is the same. Now they can fight for control of News Corp., and the people who take over Murdoch, the people in the class, most people think it's James.

Thinking that Elizabeth had a chance, this is a small part. And at this moment, Elizabeth is also a little depressed, although she is very energetic in front of the camera, but in fact, her life is not so good now.

Just like her brother James said, her father Murdoch is actually not very optimistic about such a thing.

Therefore, in addition to facing the pressure of media reporters and so on, she also has to face pressure from her father. If she wants to give up her feelings and go all out to fight for the inheritance of News Corporation, then she may mean that she has a little hope of becoming her father's successor.

But now Elizabeth obviously doesn't look at it that way. This is a very helpless result, Elizabeth is worried about such a thing.

The secretary came over and said, "There is news from the company that Will Smith has decided to take over the film, but he has a request, he must become the producer of the film." ”

It is very common in Hollywood for a director or a superstar-level actor to become a producer of a movie, for example, Emmerich is such a person, as a director of a disaster film, he will always become one of the producers.

Because in the West, in fact, the film system is a little different from the East. In China, it is generally made by the director center, and the filming is dominated by the director, but in the West, the producer talent is the most important position, and the producer has the power of life and death over the entire crew.

Therefore, strong directors and famous actors generally use an identity like a producer to protect themselves.

After all, if you become a producer, then when shooting a movie, in fact, a real producer will not have any restrictive feelings about his film creation. Otherwise, there are two people in charge of a movie, one is the director, who controls the shooting, and the other is the producer, who controls the financial power, then the crew will be more chaotic. So, on a question like this, things may be worse than Elizabeth thinks, Will Smith is going to become a producer? Elizabeth hesitated, she is indeed a person who likes to use beautiful women, and Elizabeth must do a good job in changing projects, and prove that she is also qualified to control News Corporation. Otherwise, in such a matter, she will completely fail, and the future power of News Corp will be completely lost to herself.

So, Elizabeth thought for a moment and said, "Okay, that's fine, but we have the right to oversee and terminate the producer-director's decision that the film is not good." ”

Elizabeth herself doesn't know how to make movies, so in such a situation, she will naturally want to delegate her rights.

But as an actual investor, she is responsible for her own investment, after all, losing to Ou Zhe is related to whether she can defeat James and become the successor of News Corporation.

The secretary was not surprised by Elizabeth's decision, and Hollywood is actually more popular in this way. At this moment, Elizabeth hesitated for a moment and said: "The production company should not be settled so quickly, I have my own plans." ”

At this time, the secretary naturally didn't know much about what Elizabeth was going to do, but according to custom, Elizabeth's behavior was quite unexpected, and the film production company should be determined first.

And there is almost no doubt that the production company should be Fox, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

At this moment, after the secretary left, Elizabeth made a phone call: "Dear Matthew, how did you do what I asked you to do? ”

Elizabeth and Matthew Freud have been in a very hot relationship lately, so some things are not very authentic.

This project, if Fox is a production company, it will not only be above board, but it will also add points to her father at all, but Elizabeth actually didn't do this at all for Matthew, she decided some things to be like what James said, she was more like a sister than a sister.
