In the 80s, Michael Eisner was Barry Diller's younger brother, and he assisted Barry Diller to propose and develop the "High Film Theory", which was amazing for Hollywood, and this set of programmed film theories made Hollywood officially enter the era of commercial films.

But in recent years, his judgment of movies has become worse and worse!

Because of him, Disney has lost a lot of excellent movie projects, the most famous is the "Lord of the Rings" series!

A few years ago, Harvey Weinstein asked him for investment in this project, but he verbally refused.

Later, New Line Pictures took over, and Harvey Weinstein, as the executive producer, received a 5% global box office dividend, which is supposed to be Miramax's income, not personal income.

However, Michael Eisner was very optimistic about the "Lord of the Rings" project, and with a wave of his hand, he agreed to share the benefits with Harvey Weinstein.

In other words, the global box office dividends of the "Lord of the Rings" series, Disney accounts for 2.5%, and the Weinstein brothers account for 2.5%.

Now, "Lord of the Rings 1: The Fellowship of the Ring" has exploded at the box office, and the peripheral industries driven by it are like competing with last year's "Star Wars Episode 1: The Ghost Man Menace" and last year's "Spider-Man"!

Only one film can bring at least $1 billion in profits to New Line Pictures!

Michael Eisner's bowels are all repentant.

Now that Disney has access to The Chronicles of Narnia, which is on a par with The Lord of the Rings, how can he not be excited?

What's more, The Chronicles of Narnia brings a magical world like no other, which is more in line with the fairy tale of children's dreams, go to a magical world, become a savior-like hero, and then become the king of the fairy tale kingdom.

Undoubtedly, this is more in line with Disney's value system!

Don saw the mood swings on Michael Eisner's face, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly.

Will he give Disney a big gift?

Think too much!

"The Chronicles of Narnia" is certainly as famous as "The Lord of the Rings", but it is too difficult to adapt, and the deep philosophical and religious metaphors in it are difficult to show through the plot.

Except for "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe", the subsequent installments have suffered big losses in a row and have become special effects garbage.

Don Pictures took the benefits of the first part, let Disney collect the garbage!

"This thing...... I'm going back to the board of directors for another discussion. ”

When it comes to the copyright of that batch of classic cartoons, there are too many entanglements of interests in it, even Michael Eisner can't be arbitrary.

Don was not in a hurry to get the result, and looked at him with a smile, "Mr. Eisner, I am willing to give up even the follow-up copyright of "The Chronicles of Narnia", you must have seen the sincerity of my cooperation, right?"

"Of course!"

Michael Eisner nodded repeatedly, in a good mood.

"What about you? I need to see Disney's sincerity. ”

"I said, it's a big deal, I need ......"

Don interrupted him with a wave of his hand, his eyes fixed on him, "I'm not talking about this, I have two enemies, but they are both Disney partners." ”

Michael Eisner immediately suddenly, one is Jerry Bruckheimer, the other is Harvey Weinstein!

Don said: "Jerry Bruckheimer's "Black Hawk Down", you have already seen the box office results, not to mention compared with "The Lord of the Rings", even the $35 million investment of "Resident Evil" is not as good! It's not that I said, he is no longer the gold medal producer who dominates Hollywood, he is outdated!"

"Resident Evil" grossed $19.8 million in its first week, while "Black Hawk Down" only earned $14.8 million.

After "Pearl Harbor", Jerry Bruckheimer once again missed out on a commercial blockbuster!

Michael Eisner said: "Indeed, we have discussed internally that as long as Black Hawk Down' does not exceed $100 million at the North American box office, we will cancel the preferential rights partnership agreement between Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer Film Productions. ”

Don nodded with satisfaction, smiled and asked, "What about the other one?"

"This is very difficult!" Michael Eisner said with a glance at Donn, puzzled, "As far as I know, you and Harvey ...... There is no substantive contradiction, and the little suspicions in the past are all due to the conflict between Disney and Down Pictures. Now that our two companies have resolved the conflict, you still need to ......"

Tang Enzheng said: "This is not a contradiction, but a principle!"

"Principles?"

"Mr. Eisner, you don't know, do you? Harvey Weinstein is the biggest red couch in Hollywood!"

Michael Eisner almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

Harvey Weinstein is the biggest red couch?

Don't talk nonsense!

Now who in Hollywood doesn't know, you Donn Walker, is the biggest beneficiary of the unspoken rules!

Harvey Weinstein is old, ugly, fat and frustrated, which actress is willing to lean up?

You Don En is different, young and golden, unmarried, and an actress who takes the initiative to post upside down, not too many!

Tang En's old face was blushed by his playful eyes, coughed lightly, and said solemnly: "I don't mean the kind of transaction that you are willing to make, this kind of unspoken rules of the industry are available in all walks of life, and it is impossible to stop it." I'm talking about Harvey Weinstein's use of power, his power, his violence!"

Michael Eisner's face was straight, "Don, if you don't have evidence, don't talk nonsense." ”

Don En sneered: "Is it nonsense, you will know it as soon as you check it! Not to mention Hollywood actresses, even if it is a female employee of Miramax, I dare to guarantee that many of them have been poisoned by him!"

Michael Eisner had heard of this for a long time, otherwise Harvey Weinstein's outstanding talent would have been promoted internally, and it would be impossible to limit his power to Miramax.

I'm afraid that he will ruin Disney's image!

"This matter, be steady!"

Michael Eisner's face was slightly gloomy, and Disney was having a hard time at the moment, he was afraid that Donn, a stunned young man, would fight with Harvey Weinstein.

The corners of Don's mouth twitched disdainfully, "I have a sense of proportion, otherwise I would have been exposed to the media a long time ago! Hmph, internal scandal, internal digestion, I understand." ”

Michael Eisner breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. ”

"But this person, I will take it no matter what!" Tang En snorted coldly, "The existence of this kind of scum is a kind of pollution to the survival soil of Hollywood! And now that feminist sentiment is high, once things get bigger, they will encounter an uncontrollable situation." ”

The collective uprising of actresses in the previous life certainly stinked Harvey Weinstein, but also seriously damaged the current system of Hollywood and affected the interests of film companies.

Donn is now in power, especially the beneficiary of the unspoken rules, and he will never allow that uncontrollable feminist tide to rise in Hollywood!

He created Rose Pictures, ostensibly to cater to feminism.

In fact, he wants to control the feminist trend in Hollywood, control this force in his own hands, and prevent it from happening!

If it is really like the outbreak of Hollywood feminist movements like "Me_too" and "Time's_Up" in the previous life, that kind of indiscriminate attack, with Donne's private life, is very likely to fall into it.

Only by becoming the leading big brother of Hollywood feminism can Donn occupy the moral high ground forever.

Michael Eisner didn't have the foresight, so naturally he couldn't guess Donn's thoughts, but he just thought that this kid was too jumpy in thinking and fooling around!

Obviously afraid of the rise of women's rights, what else is Rose Pictures?

Isn't this asking for trouble?

"Don't touch him for two years!"

Michael Eisner thought a little and gave a condition.

In his opinion, two years is enough time for him to stabilize Disney's internal strife.

And two years later, the "Lord of the Rings" series will be released, Disney will take the benefits, and Harvey Weinstein will not be so important.

For people like Harvey Weinstein, he was on guard.

Why did he insist on not investing in The Lord of the Rings? If it was Disney's offer, he might have agreed, but Harvey Weinstein couldn't!

This person has a bad reputation!

It's okay to be a gangster in the independent film circle, this circle is already very deep and dirty. But when it comes to commercial movies, the operation is basically exposed to the sun, and brand marketing and word-of-mouth value are particularly important.

If Harvey Weinstein reaches out to the mainstream commercial film industry, once there is a scandal, Disney will not be able to withstand it, which will seriously affect Disney's brand image.

Don raised his eyebrows, "What about two years from now?"

Michael Eisner said lightly: "If his behavior does not change within two years, Disney will not continue to protect him with potential brand threats." ”

"Two years ......" Donn squinted his eyes and muttered for a moment, thinking of the progress of George Paxton leading the team to investigate the sports scandal, and smiled slightly, "Two years!

Negotiation is the art of compromise.

Taking a step back and taking what they need, Michael Eisner was satisfied with Donn's attitude, and half-jokingly, "That's right, Natalie...... I've been in a bit of trouble lately, do you need help? Honestly, I think her performance in "Juno" can make a difference during the awards season. ”

Don snorted disdainfully, "Don't worry about it for the time being!" ”

"That's Kirk Douglas!"

"It doesn't matter!"

Don is confident enough, "Oscar voting, isn't it just who has more friends and who has great influence, I want to see what he is capable of!"

Michael Eisner was speechless in astonishment.

This Don is too arrogant, isn't he?

When it comes to influencing the Oscars, even he can't boast of being as good as Kirk Douglas, where does Donn get his confidence?

Of course, he didn't know Donn's secret weapon.

In 2001, the annual box office winner was Donne's Unsinkable, which grossed $1.01 billion worldwide.

According to the trigger reward of the sunglasses system, Don will get a "Sky Stealing Prize" skill!

Don't be too invincible!()
