Music is just a very small piece of Disney's business.

In the face of the encirclement and suppression of the three giants of the menacing record industry, Disney barely resisted, and made concessions, saying that it would not launch a paid subscription service for mobile phones with songs in the United States, and would abide by industry rules.

Still, Michael Eisner called Donn and said, "Donn, is this necessary?" Disney just wants to have something to eat in the music market. ”

Tang En said apologetically: "Oh, you said this, hey, I just heard about it, it's really nonsense." The cooperation between music and mobile phones is a great step forward in industrial upgrading. ”

Michael Eisner rolled his eyes, he didn't believe it.

Universal Music has made such a big move, and it has almost leveraged the power of the entire music industry.

Behind this, can there be a lack of Done's support?

Tang En didn't intend to forcibly lie, sighed, and said helplessly: "But then again, Disney's actions this time are indeed too reckless." The record industry is already in turmoil, but it can't afford to toss more. If the paid subscription business for mobile phones really develops like a prairie fire, it will quickly overturn the entire record industry! At least 300,000 people will be at risk of losing their jobs. This is by no means just a record industry crisis, but a social contradiction!"

"The traditional record industry is going to die, that's predictable. ”

"But it can prolong the process of dying, so that more people have enough preparation time and psychological endurance. If you watch a new business collapse physical music, it will be a sudden death that will trigger a huge social panic. ”

"I didn't expect you to worry about the country and the people. ”

Michael Eisner said it not lightly.

Tang En said with emotion: "Businessmen, there must always be some family and country feelings and a sense of social responsibility. Besides, the sound quality of the phone is really poor, and even the best Motorola music phone today is difficult to compare with a music device like the iPod, let alone a physical record. As a music content provider, we shouldn't let our phones desecrate music. ”

The big hats buttoned down, leaving Michael Eisner speechless.

This Don always has 10,000 reasons!

"Even if there is no paid on-demand, users will find a way to download pirated music on their phones. Paid VOD can guarantee at least some genuine rights. ”

"We shouldn't make up for old mistakes with new ones, it's just mistakes on top of mistakes. ”

Michael Eisner was a little broken, and said a little annoyed: "Don, don't think I don't know, you can definitely see the prospect of the online music service business on the mobile phone!"

Tang En said lightly: "Indeed, the prospect is very good. But as I said, the timing is not right, and we need to leave enough buffer for the record industry to give them plenty of time to find a new environment to live in. Otherwise, it would be a fatal blow to the record industry. ”

Michael Eisner laughed.

He'd dealt with Donn too much.

I have suffered a lot of losses.

The more high-sounding it is, the more mysterious it will be!

Although he couldn't confirm what the hell Tang En had in mind at the moment, he was sure that Tang En's mind would not be so clean!

"Forget it, Disney's music business is insignificant, so it's not going to be involved in the turf battles of your music giants. ”

Michael Eisner shook his head amusedly, as if he saw a bloody black hand layout in the music market.

Thankfully, Disney doesn't need to be involved.

Donn smiled: "Michael, thank you for your understanding, the record industry is in turmoil, and now it's chaotic." If nothing else, how many rumors have been spread about Michael Jackson alone? At this stage, the music industry still needs to focus on stability. ”

Michael Eisner was not interested in talking about this topic too much, and said, "Don't forget, Don't forget, in addition to film, television and music, the theater business is also a vital cultural force. ”

"Theater business?" Donn was slightly stunned, "You mean Broadway?"

"That's right!" Michael Eisner did not hide it, saying bluntly: "Whether it is New Universal, or Disney, they are both media groups that can lead American culture and even global entertainment culture, and we should not ignore the crucial Broadway." ”

The topic is a bit big.

Don didn't rush to answer.

Broadway?

He lacks interest.

At the end of the day, it's not that much value can be created on Broadway. Last year, Broadway grossed only about $1 billion. Counting peripheral income and derivative rights, the total output value that can be created in a year is about 1.5 billion US dollars.

It's really not worth the media giants.

What's more, the relationship on Broadway is too complicated, and this kind of street theater culture will inevitably involve the interests of many local snakes in New York.

In New York, investors will value the Broadway business, in large part because of the complete industrial chain, which includes the tourism and consumer industries in the Manhattan area, and even the gray and black industries.

Hollywood has taken control of the theater and has no corresponding other income in Manhattan, so there is not much profit margin at all.

That's why well-funded media giants tend to shy away from Broadway.

Cooperation is possible, merger is not necessary.

Michael Eisner apparently didn't believe in this evil.

Ten years ago, he was very interested in the troupe's business!

At that time, Disney produced a popular animated film, and the ambitious Michael Eisner teamed up with Broadway to make it into a musical and perform on Broadway stages.

This made many Broadway playwrights scoff.

Theatre attaches the greatest importance to artistry, especially the avant-garde.

Can the silly and sweet mode of Disney cartoons have a living space on Broadway?

However, Disney has deep pockets and has come up with a large amount of production costs, so that those artists have no capital to resist, and while they are busy with production, they secretly despise Michael Eisner in their hearts, thinking that Michael Eisner will fail miserably.

As a result, after the show started, it was a big hit at the box office!

It became the most famous Broadway musical at that time, and even sold well all over the world.

This is the Disney brand!

The fame is far greater than that of the traditional classic musicals on Broadway.

Since then, Disney has embarked on a series of collaborations with Broadway. Finally, last year, Michael Eisner couldn't help it and finally made a move on Broadway theaters, he bought the Muppet puppet theater company, and officially established the Disney Theater Group of Companies.

Then, all sorts of problems arose.

Broadway belongs to the New York art scene and has never been out of step with Hollywood.

It's okay to cooperate, and it's ...... There will inevitably be resistance.

The acquisition of the Muppet puppet theater company created a big problem for Disney.

It's not just money that can settle everything.

It's like a foreign tyrant waving a dollar bill to break into Hollywood, and the result is only chicken feathers, which is the same reason.

Michael Eisner didn't want to admit defeat, so he found Donn.

Hoping to take advantage of Donn's wisdom, the two sides will join forces and take Broadway!

He can successfully carve out the world in Hollywood, and he can also solve Broadway!

It's a pity that Don has little interest in this matter.

Drama is not a popular art, and it depends on the troupe and the stage, there is no room for industrial upgrading, and it belongs to the traditional industry among the traditional industries.

Dealing with such a complex environment in New York's business circles is more than worth the loss.

In case it is hacked and eaten by black, it will be miserable.

For Donne, there are really too many industries that can make money.

There are still many promising industries that New Global has not had time to enter!

There's no need to wade through the muddy waters on Broadway.

"Hehe, Michael, you're so right! Theatre is a vital cultural force, and art and culture belong to everyone!" Donn said with a hearty smile.

Michael Eisner was a little surprised, "You agree with me?"

Tang En said as a matter of course: "It's all the cultural and entertainment industry, Hollywood and Broadway, there are a lot of places that are integrated. I support your idea! So, if New Universal's film and television works are to be adapted for theatrical stage, Disney Drama Group has priority, how about it?"

Michael Eisner's face darkened.

Priority?

Who is rare!

I want you to join me on Broadway!

Good for you Donn Walker, I didn't expect to be as pedantic as those old Hollywood antiques!

There can only be one cultural window in the United States, and that is Hollywood!

Don't you understand this truth?

Broadway on the East Coast, Hollywood on the West Coast, this is the division of discourse, which will reduce the value of Hollywood's existence, understand?

Rats' eyes!

Michael Eisner was disappointed!

Very disappointed!

The priority of film and television adaptation promised by Tang En is completely chicken ribs in his opinion.

Disney has its own brand, which is to stick to women's and children's programming.

Many of New Universal's adult works, even if Disney is given priority to adapt, Disney can't ask for them.

Don pretended to be at a loss, and said kindly: "I really hope that Disney can create a world on Broadway, Michael, I wish you success!"

But he secretly sneered in his heart.

This Michael Eisner is too naïve.

You've just taken a step back in Disney Music's pay-per-demand business, and you're trying to trade it for me to follow you to Broadway?

Let's be delusional!

Disney Music Group must back down, and the three major record giants have the ability to ban Disney Music in its entirety.

In the past few decades, Hollywood has not been involved with Broadway, at most it is a copyright cooperation, and there must be internal reasons.

If one day, Disney really changes the pattern of Baihaohui, maybe Don will enter a piece of the pie.

However, there is no need to expand the territory.

New Globe Group has enough profit growth points.

Not to mention anything else, the consumer goods department alone has a very large space for development!

The integration of Prada's business has been completed, and the negotiations for Victoria's Secret are in full swing. It's better to be unexpected, and within half a year, you can get the results.

Ten years later, most of the top 10 on the Forbes rich list have been dominated by bigwigs from Internet technology companies.

There are few exceptions.

There are two of them, Amancio Oorte, the big boss of the Spanish ZARA clothing company, and Bernard Arnault, the big boss of the LVMH group.

It can be seen that the output value of the fashion clothing industry is high and the potential is great!
