"I've had people look closely, and neither of those projects is a war epic. ”

In the office, Jim Prologis said to James Murdoch: "The Martian is a sci-fi film started by Ridley Scott, and "Doomsday Collapse" is the type of disaster that Roland Emmerich is more good at. ”

James Murdoch thoughtfully: "It seems that Ronan Anderson is also aware that the epic genre is currently more at risk. ”

Jim Prologis immediately picked up: "The director may have a problem too. Ridley Scott and Roland Emmerich are clearly past their prime, and the two projects are ......"

James Murdoch waved his hand: "The failure of several projects, even if it is a big production project, Twentieth Century Fox can withstand it, and Relativity Entertainment will not have a big problem either, we still pay attention to ourselves." ”

Like so many things he did in the UK, James Murdoch never wanted to beat relativity entertainment in film and television.

This is what Ronan Anderson does best, and a fool would collide with him in this regard.

"War is not just about the front. James Murdoch said slowly: "There is still something that cannot be seen behind the scenes. ”

Jim Prologe, who is James Murdoch's absolute confidant, understood what this meant, thought about it, and reminded: "There is no frontal battlefield, and there will be no room for operation on the battlefield behind it." ”

James Murdoch gently patted the arm of the chair: "We still have to wait for the opportunity." ”

This opportunity is not only to be created, but also depends on one's own situation, Jim Prologis thought of the strategy of the group company, and finally couldn't bear it, and asked the question that he was most concerned about during this time: "Why Time Warner and Warner Bros., not Relativity Entertainment?"

"It was a decision my father made. "James Murdoch is not stupid, to have today's situation in power, Rupert Murdoch's support is the key, even if he disagrees with Rupert Murdoch's decision, he will not be stupid enough to strongly oppose it. He emphatically reminded: "Twentieth Century Fox wants power to cooperate with News Corp. ”

Jim Pross assured, "I will." He asked tentatively, "Didn't Warner Group openly reject the invitation of the group company?

James Murdoch said: "Father's decision is not easily changed. ”

"Then we ......" Jim Prologis looked at James Murdoch: "What about us?"

James Murdoch did not have any anxiety and said: "We do our best, the group company is mobilizing resources because of the acquisition of Warner, which is not a favorable condition for us, if there is a problem on Warner's side, the concentrated resources can be transferred to the target as soon as possible." ”

"I see. Jim Prologis thought of one thing: "Something went wrong with Lehman Brothers, and there is no guarantee that the third loan will go in this year." ”

James Murdoch, who stands on the shoulders of the giants of News Corp. and the Murdoch family, also knows a lot, saying: "Wall Street is experiencing some difficulties, temporarily, Lehman Brothers, temporarily cutting off the flow of funds. ”

Although the two companies are partners, Lehman Brothers' troubles are not necessarily a bad thing for Twentieth Century Fox.

The building of relativity.

"I'm going to New York in the afternoon. Robert Iger came to Ronan and asked, "Do you have anything else?"

Ronan thought for a moment and said, "Marvel Entertainment is on the right track, and there is not much to pay attention to. Wall Street seems to be a bit abnormal, Bob, you go and have a look, keep in touch with companies like Goldman Sachs. Also, pay more attention to Lehman Brothers. ”

Robert Iger said: "This time it's mostly going to Wall Street. ”

Ronan said, "Have you read a few of my thoughts about Lehman Brothers?"

"I've seen it. Robert Iger said directly: "It depends on the specific situation, Lehman Brothers is one of the four major investment banks after all......"

Ronan nodded slightly and said, "It's best to prepare in advance, if we have the opportunity, we can seize it in time." There really is no chance, and we don't force it. ”

Robert Iger replied: "Just rest assured. He was ready to say goodbye, and said: "The business inspection team sent to the East came to the news, and the contact with the Qianlu Group is generally good, their determination to invest in the film and television entertainment industry is quite large, and is currently rapidly building urban commercial complexes and supporting theaters in the market over there, and is also preparing to build a new film and television industry base." ”

Ronan said with a smile: "The more determined they are, the better it will be for our future." ”

"yes, they're very rich. As if reminiscent of some of the current conditions in North America, Robert Iger lamented: "The real estate industry is crazy. ”

He turned the topic back to the sideline: "That Mr. Lin will come to Los Angeles again next year, will they make up their minds, it is estimated that there will be a result by then." ”

Ronan said, "Keep in touch with them. ”

Robert Iger didn't stay long, chatted a few words about the strategic aspects of the plan, and quickly left Ronan's office.

Subsequently, Ronan made a special look at the situation on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Qianlu Group is in a period of rapid expansion, frequently acquiring land and commercial complexes in the city, with considerable strength and deep background.

It is certainly not easy to develop to this stage.

Fortunately, Ronan never thought of going to the partner on the other side of the Pacific, and this is a normal mutually beneficial business cooperation.

Compared with other Hollywood companies, Relativity Entertainment is definitely a good company with a conscience in the market on the other side of the Pacific.

The most important point is that Ronan can be sure that it is really ready to invest in the film and entertainment industry, and the possibility of finally reaching a cooperation is very high.

The former conglomerate from the East has been investing in the media, entertainment and sports industries around the world, almost on a frenzy, once setting off a frenzy of acquisitions in North America and Europe.

However, with the emergence of some irresistible factors, the company's plan to build the so-called Oriental Hollywood film industry could only end in failure.

But that's a decade later, and Ronan is also concerned about the other side of the Pacific, which won't happen anytime soon.

Therefore, Ronan can see very clearly that even if a cooperation agreement can be reached with Qianlu Group, it is destined to be a short-term cooperation, and the two sides cannot become long-term partners.

Just entered October, as the time for the battle between donkeys and elephants next year is getting closer and closer, the black carbon students are becoming more and more active, and they personally came to Los Angeles, California with the completed team.

This is the concentration of leftists, one of the strongholds of the Dish Cook Party, and Hollywood has countless big-name stars who support the Dish Cook Party.

Like Scarlett Johansson, George Clooney, Meryl Streep and Will Smith to name a few.

These people will wave their flags and shout for Black Tan students in various ways on different occasions.

As a public figure with a large number of fans, Hollywood stars are more or less influential, and there are many people like George Clooney who want to follow the path of Ronald Reagan's success.

In addition to a series of public activities, Hei Tan also visited the rich and famous people in California one after another, and came to the Future World Manor to visit.

Ronan and Jessica Filton took time out to entertain the Black Carbon couple in the manor.

Perhaps under the influence of Ronan, she is also working hard, even in the face of these political tasks, Jessica Felton can advance and retreat freely, and talk with the wife of Black Charcoal without stage fright.

As for Ronan and Black Carbon, the topic did not involve next year's donkey-elephant dispute, nor did they talk about any political or economic topics, and the two sides chatted some interesting stories like old friends.

The specific matters are naturally discussed by the company's public relations experts and the team of black carbon students.

It is enough for the two of them to show their attitude tendencies.

Black Carbon also invited Ronan and Jessica Filton to his home when they traveled to Washington.

The contact between the two sides in Los Angeles, that is, this time.

Relativity Entertainment's large-scale plan is unfolding step by step, and the income of the film and television business as the support of the plan is directly related to success or failure.

Embassy Pictures is pushing for the release of film projects as planned.

On the first weekend of October, the film version of Hannah Montana, starring Taylor Swift, was officially released.

It's a veritable fan movie with a very clear audience, which is the audience of the Hannah Montana series and the fans of Taylor Swift.

Unexpectedly, such a purely fan-oriented film would have opened a jaw-dropping box office figure on its opening weekend.

Three days after the opening weekend, the film version of "Hannah Montana" earned $38.95 million in North America.

This number, on the one hand, shows the success of the series version, and on the other hand, it also represents Taylor Swift's huge appeal.

It is no exaggeration to say that after "Peppa Pig", "Hannah Montana" and the country singer, Taylor Swift has become the veritable reddest youth idol in the United States.

This is a good thing, but there are also huge hidden dangers.

If it were someone else, Relativity Entertainment would inevitably add another fire and overdraft Taylor Swift in order to maximize the benefits.

But her father was, after all, a stalwart and one of the top management members of Ronan's huge interest group.

So, at Ronan's behest, Big Machine Records and Shahai Entertainment both talked to Taylor Swift about the future transformation.

Taylor Swift may have such and such problems, but she is definitely a very smart girl, and everything that has happened proves that she knows how to cooperate with the company's various plans.

Youth idols have a shelf life, if you don't pay attention to it, this shelf life will be quickly shortened, like the former Walt Disney, which has created many popular youth idols, and then before the shelf life arrives, maximize benefits.

This kind of overdraft consumption of the fan economy has undoubtedly made the future of many youth idols extremely difficult.
