"Spider-Man 2" swept the entire North American box office market.

In this May, there is only one voice in the entertainment media in the United States, and that is "Spider-Man 2"!

In the second week of its release, the North American box office shrank by 48.2%, but it still topped the list with $112 million!

The plot of "Spider-Man 2" connects with "Spider-Man 1", there is no need to explore the personal background of "Spider-Man", and more emotional elements and action scenes are added, which is better than "Spider-Man 1" in terms of viewing experience and fun!

Although in the overall rating of film critics, Done Walker's "Spider-Man 1" has a higher score and deeper meaning, Ridley Scott's "Spider-Man 2" is obviously more powerful, more prosperous and more popular than "Spider-Man 1" two years ago!

After the perfect foreshadowing of "Spider-Man 1", "Spider-Man 2" began to focus on developing the entertainment and fun of the film, laying the style for the entire "Avengers" series.

The style of "Spider-Man" is also vividly displayed in this film.

After 10 days of release, the North American box office was $320 million!

"Spider-Man 2" became the fastest film to break $300 million at the North American box office!

The record continues.

But in the next week, the big drama is coming.

"Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones", directed by George Lucas himself, is about to land in major theaters after a wave of high-profile publicity!

The two most anticipated films in this summer file are on the schedule in May, right!

Such a situation, whether it is Fox, Universal, Lucasfilm, or Dunn Film, do not want to see it.

The distributors, Twentieth Century Fox and Universal Pictures, have had many discussions about the release time of the two films.

Don Films' "Spider-Man 2" will be released in May, "Pirate League: The Curse of the Black Pearl" will be released in July, and "Omen" will be released in August.

According to Universal, I hope that "Star Wars Prequel 2" will change the schedule to June, and the schedules of several blockbusters will be staggered, so that both parties will be good.

But Fox refused.

Are you kidding?

The "Spider-Man" series is fierce, but their film is "Star Wars"!

The No. 1 IP in the United States!

It is simply impossible to make "Star Wars Prequel 2" change the schedule.

Will Star Wars be afraid of Spider-Man?

If you want to change, it is also to let "Spider-Man 2" adjust the schedule and change it to June.

After several discussions to no avail, the global side communicated with Tang En whether to back down.

Don immediately stated that it was impossible to change the schedule!

"Spider-Man 2", not afraid of any film!

Twentieth Century Fox relied on "Star Wars Prequel 2", and his confidence was hardened, and if he wanted to have a fight with Tang En Pictures, it would be good, and Don was even more confident.

"Star Wars Episode 2: Attack of the Clones" is almost the worst in the series. In his previous life, he only got a North American box office of 300 million and a global box office of 650 million US dollars, which was a big surprise.

Don also specifically asked Natalie, how is this film made?

Her statement is very straightforward, "Director Lucas is old, it's time to retire!"

Don is even more confident.

In June, although there was no Donn Pictures film released, Universal Pictures had a film that Donn was very concerned about - "Spy Shadows".

The investment in the film is not large, and Universal Pictures does not have much hope.

But Don is different, he knows the potential of the "Spy" series, but if this action movie is scheduled with "Spider-Man 2", there is absolutely no room for survival. But competing with "Star Wars Prequel 2", there may be potential to break through.

But now, "Spider-Man 2" and "Star Wars Prequel 2", two high-profile sequel films, will compete in the May schedule, and the June schedule will be empty, so that "Spy Shadow" can develop safely, which may be more in line with the overall interests of Done Pictures and Universal Pictures.

Vivendi is already finished, and the disputes between shareholders and management are getting bigger and bigger.

Now Don has regarded Universal Pictures as something in his pocket.

Brandi Norris, the chief financial officer, has contacted a number of banks and can prepare a loan of $4 billion to $5 billion at any time.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed!

As long as Vivendi really messes up, Don Pictures can fish down the river and bring Hollywood stuff back to Hollywood!

Take the Globe!

……

Vivendi's chaos is gradually expanding, and Disney's chaos is also intensifying.

After the resignation of Roy Disney and Stanley Gold, the "Save Disney" movement launched became more and more popular.

They set up a website, "", which they wanted to use as a base to overthrow Michael Eisner's rule.

They are trying to use the Internet to democratize the unresponsive corporate governance mechanism, so as to gain the approval of more "dissenting shareholders" and vote no.

And on May 13, they openly published an open letter:

"The time has come for all Disney shareholders to take the first step toward the necessary changes in the company...... Join us in voting against Michael Eisner, George Mitchell, Judith Estling, John Bryson, the director...... By dissenting the objections, you will send a message that the board cannot ignore...... You're going to force the board to recognise a widely spread belief that both senior management and management, must make significant changes......"

In addition to those criticisms of Michael Eisner, the letter also harshly criticized George Mitchell, the chairman of the management committee, saying that he did not do anything at Disney, but charged more than $1 million a year, which is a reputation hunt!

The criticism of George Mitchell, even more so than the criticism of Michael Eisner.

Because George Mitchell is too famous!

He was the leader of the Democratic Party, the leader of the majority party in the Senate, and a true politician.

After leaving the Senate, he went to Northern Ireland and ended the civil strife that lasted for a hundred years in Northern Ireland with a three-inch tongue and no shots!

As a result, he has personally won the Nobel Peace Prize and is the president and honorary president of several universities.

In the past two years, Disney has fallen behind in the competition between Disney and Viacom.

It's not just Viacom's beautiful business performance, but also Lei Shidong's strong political ability behind it.

Michael Eisner was deeply aware of this and realized that if he wanted to compete with Viacom, he must have political influence, so he hired George Mitchell at a high price and made him the director and chairman of the board of directors of Disney.

On the one hand, it is the internal forces that hinder Roy Disney and Stanley Gold, and on the other hand, it is to counter Lei Shidong's external political and business relations.

Unexpectedly, this also became Roy Disney's point of attack.

Is a figure like George Mitchell with an annual salary of $1 million much?

Michael Eisner is annoyed!

But George Mitchell can't stand it, he's a politician who wants to continue to work for the federal government, and his reputation is the most important thing to him. If Michael Eisner can't solve the current crisis, he will choose to resign and leave Disney, the crater of public opinion.

Of course, Michael Eisner disagreed, and in order to contend with Viacom, he had a big battle with Lei Shidong, and it took great pains to dig him up to Disney.

Originally, I wanted him to be co-chairman and president, but he worked too many part-time jobs and didn't have time to participate in specific management.

How could Eisner let go so easily?

After thinking about it for a long time, he chose to ask Don for help again.

Now, Disney has started the preparation of the project for "The Chronicles of Narnia 2", and the director is still Chinese director Ann Lee.

ABC Group also worked closely with Dick Clark Television Production Company to produce "Brave Warrior" in a more Disney style.

In order to gain more investor confidence, Disney has to play all the cards in its hand as soon as possible.

When "Spider-Man 2" swept North America, playing the sign of Donne Walker, of course, was twice the result with half the effort.

It's time to kickstart the live-action doubling project for Disney Cartoons.

It's not a matter of more money and less money.

It's a question of market effect.

Pull the tiger skin and pull the flag!

Use Donn's fame and influence to endorse Disney and stand up for Michael Eisner!

"Don, you must help me this time!"

Michael Eisner's tone was eager.

Don's reaction was very flat, and just one sentence almost choked him out of breath.

"Oh, help you...... What about the remuneration?"()
