After the elders of the Morgan family reached an agreement, they proceeded according to the agreed method.

They first sent an official letter to Universal Pictures, rejecting Sidney Neuberg's request to buy the rights to Forrest Gump.

Later, after asking Morgan Sr. to resign as president of Sidney Neuberg Universal Pictures, Sidney Neuberg was demoted to the position of director of NBC's television production department.

The elders believe that only by demoting Sidney Neoberg to NBC will John remember Sidney Neoberg's affection and compensate Sidney Neuberg later, and the elders will be able to give John a vivid management lesson.

"Boss! ”

After receiving the official letter from the group, Sidney Neuberg came to the Purple Star Manor as soon as possible.

"The group did not agree to Universal Pictures' purchase of the rights to Forrest Gump. Sidney Neuberg looked at John and handed the letter to him with both hands.

When John heard Sidney Neuberg's words, his brows furrowed, and he took the official letter and glanced at it quickly, and after seeing that the content of the official letter was consistent with what Sidney Neuberg said, he couldn't help but slander the elders of the family. But he could only make a fuss in his heart, because he had nothing to do with these old men.

Sidney Neuberg, who was on the side, saw John's dissatisfied, and stood aside and waited for an opportunity to interject. "Boss! I didn't help you this time, it's all my subordinates' incompetence. Sidney Neuberg lowered his head and looked like he blamed himself.

"It's none of your business!"

John glanced at Sidney Neuberg and handed him back the letter, saying. "How can you disobey the orders of the group? ”

Sidney Neuberg said "yes" and hurriedly took the letter with both hands.

Then he looked at John as if he wanted to say something.

Seeing that he looked constipated, John said with an upset feeling. "If you have anything to say, what are you talking about!"

"Hmmm......"

Sidney Neuberg hesitated, but finally thought about it. "Boss! I'm afraid I won't be able to come to Purple Star Manor often to say hello to you in the future, the group has sent an order, I have been transferred to the position of director of NBC's TV production department, and I will be rushing to New York tomorrow, please take care." ”

When John heard Sidney Neuberg's words, the dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared without a trace, and he even felt a trace of guilt.

Sidney Neuberger was obviously demoted because of the copyright of Forrest Gump, but even if John knew, he couldn't do anything about it, because the person who gave the transfer was Morgan Sr., and even if he succeeded in the assessment and became the future heir of the Morgan family, he could not dismiss Morgan Sr.'s order.

"You stay at NBC, I've got three more years to go. John sighed and looked at Sidney Newberg and said helplessly.

Some words could not be said explicitly, but a wise man could understand what they meant, and Sidney Neuberg was undoubtedly a wise man, and he had already heard the meaning of John's words.

John will have three years to complete the examination, and then the rights will be unfrozen, and he will be qualified to help him move his position.

And this is exactly what Sidney Neuberg wants, and the reason why he does not hesitate to take a gamble is not to find himself a backer, to find a shortcut to climb to the top of the group.

Now the meaning of John's words does not indicate that he has found a supporter, and has taken a shortcut, and his purpose can be said to have been perfectly achieved.

"Thank you, boss! I'll definitely do a good job at NBC and I won't let you be embarrassed. Sidney Newberg looked at John as if he was going to dig out his heart and give it to John for safekeeping. If these Oscar-winning actors see this scene, they will definitely be embarrassed.

And John looked at Sidney Neuberg's loyal appearance, and was very satisfied, so that even loyal and capable subordinates, as long as the leader would like it.

"It's great that you can think like that, try to do something good at NBC. John gave Sidney Neuberg a rare compliment, apparently taking Sidney Neuberg as his own.

"I understand, boss! I will live up to your expectations. Sidney Neuberg nodded emphatically.

John then gave Sidney Neuberg a few more words of encouragement, and Sidney Neuberg left Purple Star Manor.

On the way back to Universal Pictures, Sidney Neuberg kept his nerves on his nerves and did not dare to relax, until he returned to Universal Pictures, entered the office and told the secretary not to disturb him, that he let himself go, and sat in his chair with a wild smile on his face.

Riding John's line means that he can struggle for many years less, and more importantly, his children will have a higher starting point than others.

You must know that John, as the heir of the Morgan family, once the old Morgan dies, John will become the patriarch of the Morgan family, and at that time, an old man like him will not follow the rising tide, and then even the United States will go sideways.

However, just as Sidney Neuberg was happily celebrating the achievement of his goal, John in Purple Star Manor had a sad face, and the group rejected Universal Pictures' request to buy "Forrest Gump", which means that "Forrest Gump" will fall into the hands of others, which is the last thing he wants to see.

But there will always be a lot of helplessness in life, and sometimes the higher the status, the greater the power, the more compromises and things to take into account.

But even if it is sold, John has to choose a good buyer for "Forrest Gump", which is like marrying a daughter, and a good mother-in-law's family has a good home.

And now among the seven major distribution companies, only Warner and Fox are interested in buying, and John finally thinks that since he can't sell to Universal Pictures, it would be better to sell to Warner Pictures.

Anyway, Warner Pictures will be acquired by ATT in the future, so "Forrest Gump" will have a chance to return to his parents' home in a few decades, although this time is a bit long, but it is better than wandering all the time, if it is sold to Fox, it will be really a meat bun and a dog will never return.

However, before selling the rights, John has to complete the post-production of "Forrest Gump", Warner and Fox are only interested in buying it at present, and they will definitely not give a positive answer until they see the finished film.

In other words, if the finished film of "Forrest Gump" is not good, it is not necessary to give it to these two companies for free at that time, after all, the distribution fee is also a large expense, and no one can afford to waste it.

But John is very confident in "Forrest Gump", as long as the finished film is made, he believes that it is impossible to refuse with Warner's vision, but the price is not easy to say, the shamelessness of these big Hollywood companies has no bottom line at all, and it is possible to open twenty or thirty million when the time comes.
