Chapter 293: A Little Gift for You
"Roy?" Don was stunned, he knew a lot of people, there were several people named "Roy", "Which Roy?"
Tom Rothman seemed to be saying something taboo, and there was a mysterious feeling, "The Disney one." ”
Donn smiled, and finally remembered, "You're talking about Mr. Roy Disney, of course you know, he is the co-founder of Disney, Walt Disney's own brother." ”
"No, no, no, you're talking about Roy Oliver Disney. Tom Rothman shook his head repeatedly, "Actually...... His son is also named Roy, Roy Jr., Roy Edward Disney. ”
Donn's face changed slightly, and he finally understood why Tom Rothman was so cautious.
This is a Disney scandal.
After the death of the two founders of Walt Disney and Roy Disney, the reins of the company fell into the hands of Walt Disney's son-in-law, Ray Miller, and Roy Disney's son, Roy Jr.
A fierce power struggle that almost ruined the Disney company.
Finally, in 1984, the power struggle reached its peak, and the shareholders' meeting made a trade-off to collectively remove the forces of the Walt Disney faction, confirmed the status of Roy Disney Jr., and spent a lot of money to invite Michael Eisner to balance the power and maintain the overall situation.
However, Roy Disney Jr. can't even tolerate his brother-in-law, can he tolerate an outsider like Michael Eisner?
For more than 10 years, the contest between the two forces has never stopped.
It's just that Michael Eisner's work performance is too good, bringing the company that was almost bankrupt back then to the world-class media group it is now, and Michael Eisner has also dominated Disney and become a veritable Disney king.
Even Robert Iger, the president and chief operating officer of Disney and the chairman of ABC Group, is a close confidant personally promoted by Michael Eisner.
However, is Robert Iger second in command at Disney now?
Big mistake, the real second-in-command is Roy Disney Jr., who is the vice chairman, executive director, and chairman of the animation work department of Disney!
Tom Rothman suddenly mentioned Roy Disney Jr. at this time, and Don immediately understood what he meant.
Sure enough, he came from an administrative background, no wonder he was able to squeeze Bill McNick out of Twentieth Century Fox, and when it came to power struggles, Tom Rothman was indeed an expert!
Don and Michael Eisner have an inextricable feud, which is endless.
Peaceful coexistence at the moment is just an illusion.
Tom Rothman saw it, reminded Donn, and pointed him in a clearer direction!
Even if Don has a bit of talent in film production, the Disney Group has a huge industry, and it is definitely not something that Down Pictures can shake.
If Don wants to cut down the grass and completely destroy Michael Eisner, he must find reinforcements!
Michael Ovitz counts one, Jeffrey Katzenberg counts one, but these are external forces. If Disney is united internally, Donn can't take advantage of it.
If you can find an ally within Disney, and then flank inside and outside, and encircle on both sides, you can cut Michael Eisner down in one fell swoop!
Even Donn has to admit that Tom Rothman can defeat Bill McNick, and it is really a matter of course.
Bill McNick is just a professional filmmaker, his area of expertise is company management and film production, while Tom Rothman is more able to grasp people's hearts and be proficient in power.
Anyone's success is not accidental, in the face of this past "defeated general", Tang En also secretly admired, his vision is really unique, sharp and accurate!
Roy Disney ...... Definitely the heaviest shackles around Michael Eisner's neck!
Tom Rothman understood what he meant through Donn's touching expression, and smiled slightly, as if nothing had happened, "Okay, then go talk to Tim, I'm going to invite him to oversee the project of "Planet of the Apes." ”
Don nodded, "By the way, Tom, tomorrow someone will send a copy of Fox's film materials in recent years, and the detailed documents must be completed, including the cost, income, rate of return and other data." ”
Tom Rothman's eyes lit up and his emotions soared, "No problem!"
……
Don is in a good mood, he stepped on Michael Eisner's head in front of many Hollywood bigwigs, successfully ascended to the position, and was respected, which can be seen from everyone's eyes and tone of voice.
And Tom Rothman's proposal gave him a new way of thinking against Michael Eisner.
The current Tangen Pictures has become unstoppable in the development of the film industry.
But if you want to grow up in an all-round way and build a huge ecosystem, Disney will unceremoniously stop in front!
There is no doubt that with Michael Eisner's character, he will not sit idly by and watch Don Pictures grow and develop.
Don must strike first!
At this time, Nicole Kidman's soft voice came from behind him, "Finished talking?"
Don smiled, turned his head, and found that in addition to the peerless Nicole Kidman, there was also a particularly delicate and beautiful girl.
She was wearing a black backless dress, with slightly curved long hair, casually draped over her shoulders, red lips like fire, bright eyes like water, her figure was hot and straight, her buttocks were tight, plump and full, revealing seductive charm everywhere.
Tang En's beauty saw a lot, and couldn't help but look at it a few more times, "Who is this beautiful girl?"
Nicole Kidman took a step forward and smiled, "A little gift for you, do you like it?"
Don shook his head and smiled, "Nicole, you're really kidding!"
"Who said I was joking?" Nicole Kidman gave him a blank look, then grabbed the girl's hand and placed it in Donn's palm.
Don held his soft white little hand, looked at the girl's slightly shy expression, was a little surprised, and glanced at Nicole, "Did you really send me?"
"Don't tell me you don't like it!" Nicole Kidman snorted.
Don coughed and stared at the girl, "Is what she said true?"
"Hmm. ”
"Would you really like to follow me?"
"Yes!"
"What's your name?"
"Rose, Rose Byrne. ”
Rose Byrne?
Don's eyes widened slightly, no wonder the person in front of him looked so familiar.
Seeing Don En in a daze, Nicole Kidman pushed him and said angrily: "What, don't you want to give you a big beauty for nothing?"
"No......" Don frowned and groaned slightly, "Nat said she met a good friend on the crew, named Rose Byrne, it can't be you, right?"
"That's me. Rose Byrne's face was ruddy, and she confessed.
Tang En said with a bitter face: "This is troublesome!"
"Trouble?" Nicole Kidman pouted disdainfully, "You think I don't know? Natalie never cared about your private life. ”
Tang En shook his head solemnly, "That's because she didn't say it, it doesn't mean she doesn't care." Rose ...... It's her best friend, I can't sleep with my girlfriend's best friend, can I? Even if she doesn't say it, I'm definitely not happy. ”
"How can it be so exaggerated?" said Nicole Kidman, a little angry.
Tang En said eloquently: "This is respect for Nat. ”
"Nonsense!" Nicole Kidman gritted her teeth angrily, others don't know Done, doesn't she understand? She slept with Don for three years, and she has already seen through his personality, "Rose is the most potential actress of the new generation in Australia, she just won the Best Actress at the Venice Film Festival, you have to help her." ”
Rose Byrne grabbed Donn's hand and looked at him pitifully, "Sir, I like you, I want to be with you, I'm obedient, I'm ...... You can do whatever I want. ”
Tang En was reluctant, so it was difficult.
Nicole Kidman said angrily: "Don, if you dare to refuse this time, don't want me to introduce you to other Australian girls in the future, don't even think about any of them!"
Tang En smiled, he didn't care that there were many outsiders at the reception, and he didn't care about Rose Baine, who was close at hand, and reached out to hug her, "Anyway, it's enough to have you." ”
Nicole Kidman shook off his arm, "Are you trying to dominate me for the rest of my life?"
"How can it be so exaggerated......"
Before the words fell, Don reacted and looked at Nicole in surprise, "You don't want to introduce Rose to me and take your place, do you?"
Nicole Kidman turned her head away and said noncommittal, "I can't be with you for the rest of my life." ”
"This ......"
Don suddenly realized, no wonder Nicole Kidman will spare no effort, it turns out that she wants Rose Byrne to take over to maintain the pillow wind role of the "Australian Gang".
"But Nicole, I haven't had enough of you as a superb stunner......"
Don lowered her voice, but she couldn't hide it from Rose Byrne, who was beside her, and when she heard this, the roots of her ears turned red with shame.
Nicole Kidman was used to it, glanced at him, bit her lip and said: "Rose is also very beautiful, I have been with you for three years, there are so many beautiful girls in Hollywood, and there are so many beauties in Australia, you keep pestering me alone, how boring is it?"
Donn sighed, "But you're really charming, more intoxicating than good wine." ”
"I'm 33 years old, no matter how charming I am, how many years can I last?" Nicole Kidman softened her tone, leaned over Donn, and said softly, "How nice a young girl is, well-behaved, thoughtful, youthful and energetic, how beautiful do you think Rose is?"
Tang En turned his head, took a closer look at it, and exclaimed, "It's beautiful, and the figure is good." ”
Nicole Kidman pursed her lips and smiled: "That's it, try a different taste? If you don't like it, I'll introduce you to other girls, we are rich in beautiful women in Australia!"
Rose Byrne was also close to Done's arms on the other side, learning Nicole's tone, and gently persuading: "Yes, sir, try it first, if you really don't like me, I promise to leave immediately, and I won't pester you......"
