West Cotton is the director of global marketing and the president of distribution at Twentieth Century Fox, and he had a heated argument with Tom Rothman over the scheduling of "."

But the power of the number one, Wester Cotton can't shake it, and the schedule of "." has been advanced by half a month, and it is against "Spider-Man".

Later, Tom Rothman regretted it and wanted to adjust the schedule of "." The copies have been sent out, and the theater has also made a series of release arrangements, at this time, how can the schedule be changed?

As you can imagine, West Cotton was harshly criticized by Tom Rothman.

This time, Disney took the initiative to smear ".", which directly led to a significant reduction in the box office expectations of the evaluation agency, and the theater chain also gave feedback, and the film scheduling rate was lowered by 5 percentage points.

Tom Rothman was so angry that he called West Cotton into his office and yelled, "How do you work? We've dropped our schedule by another 5 points, are you waiting to see me laugh?"

West Cotton sulked and said firmly: "Now public opinion is very unfavorable to "." ”

"Normal?" said Tom Rothman, smirking back, "West, is this how you work? I want results, solutions, not your endless explanations and complaints!"

"Solution?" said Wester Cotton frowned, "Hollywood stars, who doesn't have some black material? If you expose the actor scandal in order to suppress your competitors, this is definitely the choice that ends up." This is the best way to solve the problem. ”

"Nonsense!"

Tom Rothman slammed the table and rebuked angrily.

As a veteran filmmaker, Tom Rothman certainly understands what West Cotton means.

Disney, regardless of friendship and rules, pushed public opinion to expose Drew Barrymore's black history, which had a great adverse impact on the upcoming "."

At this time, if Fox uses his own way and treats others to discredit "Sixty Seconds of Speed", it will definitely arouse Disney's vigilance and attention.

At that time, in order to avoid the same fate, the two companies will definitely negotiate a settlement, put an end to all this public opinion hype, clarify and explain, and save the image of the movie.

When the time comes, the crisis of ". " will naturally be resolved.

But in this situation, does Tom Rothman dare to challenge Disney?

It was he who pulled "Sixty Seconds of Extreme Speed" into the water at the beginning, and now that the movie box office market is in a major crisis, Disney has taken some self-help measures, why is it wrong?

If Tom Rothman dares to adopt the same plan at this time, not only will his old face have no living space in Hollywood, and Disney will tear his face, but he will also lose foreign aid in the board of directors.

Disney also understood this point and dared to make a brazen move.

Tom Rothman's face turned pale, "Immediately cooperate with Drew's agency to start public relations and minimize the negative impact!"

The corners of West's Cotton mouth hooked slightly, and his face was a little sarcastic.

Can such a person be at the helm of Twentieth Century Fox?

Work ethic?

Between corporate interests and private interests, he chose the latter after all. As long as anyone with a little brain knows that at this time, the more you explain, the more powerless you are, and launching a counterattack is the most effective way to get out of the game.

Seeing West's mocking face, Tom Rothman was even more angry and scolded loudly: "West, let me tell you, if "." loses at the box office, you will roll up and fuck me out!"

For the failure of any blockbuster, someone has to take responsibility.

The fiasco of "Fight Club" defeated Bill McNick, what if "." also failed?

Tom Rothman's eyes narrowed into slits.

He couldn't allow others to break him down with the means he had done.

He had to plan ahead.

This rebellious and arrogant West Cotton is of course the first choice!

……

It was not easy for Don to sow discord.

Everyone lives in a circle and knows each other very well, but at least it can create some chaos for the current situation.

Private life in the United States is very open, but the family concept is very conservative, and cheating in marriage is a very serious thing!

Bruce Willis dating a young model, which led to the separation of the husband and wife, and it became a hot topic of gossip tabloids for a while.

Since last year's "Golden Club" incident was exposed, Bruce Willis's popularity has plummeted. This derailment incident pushed him to the forefront again.

And the suspense film "Immortal" invested by Disney is starring Bruce Willis, which implicates Disney and is also under a lot of pressure.

And that's not all!

In order to weaken the market influence of ".", Disney launched gossip public opinion, reported on the past Drew Barrymore scandal in a high-profile manner, and even hinted at her playing multiple P with multiple members of the opposite sex at the age of 11.

However, Columbia Pictures is now working with Drew Barrymore's production company to shoot the movie "Breaking Bad", with Cameron Diaz as the female lead and Drew Barrymore as the female number two, with an investment of nearly $100 million!

Amy Pascal became president of Columbia Pictures last year and president again this year, and the image of a strong woman is glorious, but unstable. She now needs to prove through such a big production from a female perspective that women are no worse than men!

Now, because of the competition between Disney and Fox, Drew Barrymore is involved, how can she bear it?

Columbia Pictures is affiliated with Sony Entertainment and has far less promotional power than Disney and Fox. can be a veteran studio in Hollywood, there are always a number of gossip tabloid channels and network resources behind it.

And this time, it just happened to confirm the truth that the hero sees the same thing!

Tom Rothman doesn't dare to shout Disney at this stage because of his personal interests, but Amy Pascal doesn't mind pushing him behind his back.

At this time, if there is news on the market that is unfavorable to "Sixty Seconds of Speed", most people's thoughts will definitely be Fox's covert manipulation, right?

Amy Pascal is a woman, a new official in a position, and her position is unstable, so it is difficult to challenge Disney directly. And Colombia's strength is no longer what it used to be, and it is a good choice to save the country with a curve, and sowing discord is the best way!

Soon, following Drew Barrymore and Bruce Willis, another big star appeared in the whirlpool of public opinion, and his name was - Nicolas Cage!

Last Christmas, the band Cult held a concert.

At that time, Nicolas Cage also arrived at the scene with his wife. But the concert scene was too hot and there were too many audiences, so Nicolas Cage's bodyguards opened the way with their fists, violently driving away many fans who stood in the way, and opening the way for the "hero" in the movie.

At that time, there were boos at the scene, but Nicolas Cage looked calm, as if everything was normal, this was pure big-name behavior. Later, the incident set off a moment of agitation, but it was quickly defused by Nicolas Cage's public relations team.

At this time, before the release of "Sixty Seconds of Speed", the old thing was exposed again, as long as people with normal IQs understood that this was aimed at "Sixty Seconds of Speed"!

……

Don had just had three meetings.

One is a script seminar for "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" with the production department, screenwriting department, and marketing department, one is a conference meeting with Universal for the release of Nolan's new film "Memory Fragments", and the other is a conference call with Marvel Entertainment on the story line concept of "Hasbro League".

Donn, who had rested, leaned back in the boss's chair with half-squinted eyes, and Ella Fisher gently rubbed his forehead behind him.

Reese Witherspoon stood in front of him, smiling and holding a stack of newspapers, and said excitedly, "It's a quarrel, it's really a quarrel!"

Don En was shocked, and suddenly became interested, "It's Disney and Fox?"

"Who else but them? The whole of Hollywood, just what they call Huan!" Reese Witherspoon screamed excitedly, with a kind of joy after victory, "I didn't expect you to easily cause their infighting with a little trick, it's really funny!"

Ella Fisher gently massaged Don with a look of adoration, "I knew that Don was the best!"

At this time, everyone still doesn't know that it is Amy Pascal, a strong woman in Colombia, who is really sowing discord behind her back.

Don doesn't care about the process, only cares about the result, thinking about Bruce Willis, Drew Barrymore, and Nicolas Cage, who are deeply involved in public opinion scandals, he is a little high-spirited.

Needless to say, Bruce Willis, an old enemy of Donn Pictures, is very easy to suppress for this kind of big man with developed limbs and a simple mind.

As for the other two...... Hey, let Disney and Fox go dog-eat-dog!

The worse the image of "Sixty Seconds of Extreme Speed" and "." The worse the image of "Spider-Man" released at the same time, the better the reputation will be!

Disney and Fox ......

Hehe, the rope under himself trips himself, which is estimated to be the biggest joke in Hollywood in 2000!

Don was in a happy mood, and seemed to have seen the day when "Spider-Man" swept the global box office and entered film history, and smiled leisurely on Reese and Ella's faces, "Let's go together at night, let you two try, my more powerful means!"

Reese Witherspoon gave him a cute look, "Just try, who will be afraid of you?"

Ella Fisher also snorted: "That's it, Reese, let's work together tonight to deal with this guy well, and you will know how to bully people!"
