If the film and television industry wants to subvert the tradition, it is difficult to achieve the purity of the Internet and high-tech industries, and it can only start with local small fights.

Even the new concept of film and television is inseparable from the promotion of emerging technologies, such as 3D, giant screen, holographic projection, AR, multi-screen viewing, streaming media......

In short, science and technology are still the primary productive forces!

IMAX and Dolby Laboratories are the future of cinema technology.

IMAX was founded in 1967 and has cooperated with major cinemas to create more than 75 IMAX theaters in North America after decades of development.

Headquartered in New York, the company was successfully listed on the NASDAQ in 1994 and has a current stock price of $1.03 and a market capitalization of $64 million.

Comparatively, it will be more difficult to acquire Dolby Laboratories, which is a privately held company.

Founded in 1965 and headquartered in San Francisco, Dolby Laboratories focuses on the audio sector, including Dolby noise cancelling systems and Dolby surround sound systems.

Thankfully, Dr. Dolby is old and in poor health, and he must solve the problem as soon as possible.

Because if Dolby passed on to his son as a private company, according to the current law in the United States, he would have to pay a huge inheritance tax!

So to solve this problem, Dolby has only two ways to go: first, sell the company, and second, let the company go public.

Only cashed out money or stocks can be passed on to future generations in the form of trust funds and charitable funds.

However, it is difficult for Dolby to go public in the short term, because the company has sufficient cash flow and no debt, which is a big problem. (The debt ratio is too low, and the equity financing will lead to a more irrational financial structure, so it cannot be listed)

In short, both IMAX and Dolby Laboratories have certain difficulties in acquiring, but as long as the price is in place, there is no big problem.

"Universal Pictures can't be!"

Bill McNick immediately vetoed it.

Of course, Don knew it, and said with a smile: "Vivendi is booming now, of course they can't sell Universal Pictures, let's just spread the news and leak some signals to the federal government, and by the way, probe the tone of the Vivendi Group." ”

No country wants its media channels to be controlled by foreigners, and even Murdoch became an American citizen.

Once the federal government confirms that Donn wants to buy Universal Pictures, it will be given the green light.

……

In Donn's original plan, he never planned to buy IMAX and Dolby Laboratories, but since he had the goal of changing Hollywood, the technology had to be complete.

Anyway, the future prospects of these two companies are limitless.

If you can combine the IMAX giant screen and Dolby Atmos to launch the Dolby IMAX Cinema, it will be a real transcendent viewing experience!

Donn was going to travel to the crew of "Chicago", which was filming on Fox Studio, and when he saw a passage about the new decoration on the first floor of the company, he felt full of energy!

"New order, new model, new power, new Hollywood!"

Change from now on!

……

"Chicago" has been filming for more than a month, because director Rob Marshall is a newcomer, and executive producer Kathleen Kennedy has been with the team, very busy.

As soon as she saw Donn, she couldn't help but complain, "Big boss, I'm here to work at Rose Pictures, but it's a part-time job! You've arranged too many jobs for me, right? From "Juno" to "Resident Evil", from "All the Time" to "Chicago", I'm more tired than full-time!"

From the smile on the corner of her mouth, Don knew that she was satisfied with the status quo, but it was just American humor, and said with a smile: "Aren't you doubting my determination to promote women's rights? I just want to prove it to you! Also, haven't you gotten the news? "Gone Girl" is also going to be prepared for the project, and Rose Pictures is also in charge. ”

Katherine Kennedy shook her head and said earnestly, "Donn, I don't think it's the right decision. Rose Pictures...... It's just a small company, and it's enough to produce 2-3 films a year, so there's no need to overdo it. The promotion of women's rights requires the accumulation of time, and it is too late to do it. ”

Tang En said: "You should have heard of it, right? The company has put forward a new strategic slogan!"

"New order, new model, new power, new Hollywood, right?" said Katherine Kennedy, looking at him with a smirk.

Don gave a thumbs up, "So, you should understand my ambitions." Hollywood vibes...... There is so much oppression on women that I desperately want to change that. ”

Catherine Kennedy looked at him with deep meaning, "If that's the case, you won't be able to show mercy everywhere......"

Tang En said righteously: "Of course, the overall situation is important!"

It's a little funny in my heart.

Even if men and women are equal, can they still affect him?

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if the status of women in Hollywood has really improved significantly, actresses refuse to dedicate themselves to their roles, and there are no unspoken rules for trading.

Isn't there still a modeling circle?

It was a dark sky.

This will not affect Don's beautiful personal life at all, there are too many gold worshippers!

This is especially true in the United States, a social environment that advocates capital.

Katherine Kennedy pondered for a while, ""Gone Girl" can be set up for the time being, and it will be filmed after the year, and Rose Pictures should not participate in too many films. One more thing, I think that the job at Rose Pictures, for me, has become equivalent to full-time. ”

"Oh?"

Don's eyes lit up.

Katherine Kennedy is now president of Rose Pictures, but she also serves as president of Kennedy-Marshall Films, the husband-and-wife's production company.

"My husband and I have been on the phone for a long time these past few nights. Katherine Kennedy paused for a moment, then looked up at Don with a blazing look, "We agree that your ambition is also our goal!"

This time, Don was really excited.

Is this a banner and a response?

Katherine Kennedy and her husband Frank Marshall are both Hollywood's top producers!

Tang En swallowed his spit, "You and Mr. Marshall, are you going to join Tang Pictures?"

"Is that okay?"

"Yes! Of course!" Don slapped his face, then hesitated, "But...... Catherine, I don't have much contact with Mr. Marshall, but I know your talents. If it's a full-time job, it's too condescending to let you take charge of Rose Pictures. ”

In terms of ability, Katherine Kennedy is better than Nina Jacobson, the president of Marvel Studios, but managing a small Rose Pictures is somewhat overkill.

Catherine Kennedy pulled the hair from her ear and smiled, "It's okay, as a woman, I prefer the mission of Rose Pictures." ”

Don nodded and said in a low voice, "Catherine, you should know that I made a lot of money in the stock market. I've transferred $7 billion to the Don Pictures account, and let's join forces, including Mr. Marshall, to do something big!"

"$7 billion?"

Catherine Kennedy exclaimed, her face unconcealed in shock.

She is good friends with Steven Spielberg, and she knows that when she founded DreamWorks, she gathered the three giants and pulled Alan Paul to invest, and the total capital was only $1 billion.

That has been a hit in Hollywood.

But Tang En in front of him has even more spicy means, and he still blatantly injected 7 billion US dollars in the case of zero debt and extremely high profit return of Tang Pictures!

What does he want to do?

Catherine Kennedy's heart was pounding, and this time, she was even more convinced of Donn's determined, decisive, and desperate temperament and courage!

What DreamWorks can't do, maybe it really has to be done by Down Pictures!

Don patted her on the shoulder, "I said, I want to establish a new pattern and a new order in Hollywood." Believe me, you've made the right choice this time!"

Katherine Kennedy was shocked by what he said, and took a deep breath, "Hollywood needs to change, and the failure of DreamWorks does not mean that the past mechanism must be invincible!"

Donn smiled and pouted in the direction of Catherine Zeta-Jones, who was dancing and acting seriously in the distance, "What about her?

Katherine Kennedy also knew about Donn and Kirk Douglas, and shook her head, "She has been acting seriously, and she never talks about things at home." ”

As she spoke, she lowered her voice, "Actually, Mr. Michael Douglas is not bad, and his reputation is also good. It's old Douglas, and he seems to have misunderstood you. ”

"Misunderstanding?" The corners of Tang En's mouth raised slightly, a little funny, "I'm afraid it's not a misunderstanding, I scolded him on that phone call." ”

"Huh?"

Katherine Kennedy was immediately discolored.
