Chapter 211: Send a greeting card

Tang En said lightly: "Isn't "Girls Club" released on August 4th? Hmph, our movies are naturally impossible to adjust the schedule, but don't forget, the movies released on this day are Sony's "Transparent Man" and Warner's "Space Cowboy"!"

"Our family?"

Hearing this word, Natalie's mind was dizzy, a little shy, and a little sweet.

"What are you thinking, stupid?" Donn nudged her.

Natalie slapped him on the arm angrily, "You're stupid, I just ...... By the way, you mean to help promote the two movies "Transparent Demons" and "Space Cowboy", and use the hands of others to suppress "Girls Club"?"

Don said: "That's what it means. Don Pictures and Sony didn't have a holiday, but they didn't have a relationship, and through this incident, they sold their faces. Moreover, the cost of "Transparent Human Demon" is as high as 95 million US dollars, and the early publicity is also good, and it has a certain appeal. ”

Natalie nodded, thoughtful, "Space Cowboy...... The appeal is even greater, with Mr. Eastwood's self-directed and self-starred works, and the old drama bone Tommy Jones joined. ”

"So, the competition for this release period doesn't have to be bad in June at all. Donn stretched, lay down on the bed, and said with a grin, "Clint Eastwood is a maverick, but this old man is a western cowboy with a tough and righteous style. Hehe, what do you think he would do if I sold him face?"

Natalie pouted: "You want him to join Don Pictures? No way, he and Warner are hardcore, put away your little favor." ”

Tang En said with a bitter face: "My dear, I am really sad that you say this." Do you think I'm doing it for Down Pictures?"

"Isn't it?"

Although Don Pictures is not as good as Warner, it has also worked with famous directors such as Tim Burton, James Cameron, Ann Lee, Sam Mendes, and Luc Besson. Clint Eastwood is really good, but Towne Pictures doesn't lack him!"

"Huh?" Natalie blinked quickly.

Don glared at her, then stretched out his hand, pulled her into his arms, and kissed her on the tender cheek, "I'm for you, little fool!"

Natalie looked at him in surprise, "Me?"

Don said: "Yes, don't you like to work with big directors? Eastwood is a big director, I sold him this time, and I will ...... in the future Maybe you'll have a chance to work together. ”

Natalie's heart was sweet, but she was not convinced, and hummed: "You will coax people, obviously you want to kill people with a knife and suppress Disney movies, as if you are all for me." ”

Tang En couldn't help but laugh, and pretended to be helpless: "Forget it, since you don't want this opportunity...... I'll give it to Nicole, or Kate, or Charlie......"

"You dare!"

Natalie suddenly turned over and sat on Donn, looking at his ridiculous and bantering appearance, scratching him in embarrassment, gritting her teeth and saying: "You bastard, you hook up everywhere outside, and when you come home, you're angry with me, I'll fight with you!"

"Haha~~~"

Tang En naturally did not admit defeat and immediately launched a counterattack.

For a moment, the big bed swayed and laughter continued.

Soon, this cheerful laughter was mixed with other unspeakable quick groans......

……

"What did you say? West went to work for Done Pictures?"

When Tom Rothman heard the news from the secretary, his face changed drastically, and his original calm posture suddenly became roaring.

The secretary said weakly: "Yes, Mr. Wester Cotton was appointed as the vice president of Down Pictures, mainly responsible for strategic development, film marketing, brand promotion, etc., and ......"

"And what?"

And he also served as assistant to the CEO. ”

"Bang dang!"

Tom Rothman's signature pen fell straight on the desk, and the frightened young female secretary lost her face.

The last time Tom Rothman was so out of shape was when "." was crushed by "Spider-Man" at the box office.

"You go out first. ”

Tom Rothman waved his hand weakly and let out a long sigh.

He got up slowly and walked slowly to the window of the office, his face heavy.

"." was a box office fiasco, and West Cotton became a substitute for the dead and was expelled from Twentieth Century Fox.

But the board of directors is not stupid, Tom Rothman's little tricks, they may be clear, just for the sake of the stability of the overall situation, they chose to abandon the car to protect the handsome.

Tom Rothman even heard some rumors that News Corp.'s top management was unhappy with his recent actions, and if he continued to make mistakes, he would definitely be ordered to step down as a controlling major.

The name Don Walker instantly came to his mind.

Why is it always difficult for the two to get along?

If you think about it carefully, it seems that Tom Rothman takes the initiative every time, and Donn is passive defense every time.

What's more, every time Tang En's passive defense is able to prevent flowers, it is simply impassable.

When recalling the happy cooperation between himself and Don on the "Wedding Guest" project at the turn of last spring and summer, Tom Rothman's heart was very uncomfortable.

"Perhaps...... Did I underestimate him too much?"

Tom Rothman narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.

Recently, he has been very dissatisfied with Disney's reaction, especially his old friend Joe Russ, who actually demolished him behind his back.

At the beginning, in order not to be held accountable by the board of directors, in order to have a foreign helper, he did not dare to stand up to Joe Ruth. But now the situation has changed, and the turmoil of the box office fiasco of "." has passed, and he can rest assured that he can fight back boldly.

It's just that......

Is it worth it for the sake of a little Donn Walker?

Tom Rothman has a shrewd mind, especially when it comes to interpersonal relationships. It is this merit that has led him to the 20th century Fox to become the CEO he is today.

For him, interests are far more important than friendship, and friendship is far more important than face!

So in Tom Rothman's view, choosing to resolve the conflict with Donn, face is not a problem at all, the difficult thing is how to face Disney?

Although Tang En has been very popular and developed rapidly in recent years, he is only a 22-year-old young man who has only been in the industry for 4 years. Even if Disney suffers losses ten or twenty times in a row, it is still Disney, the unbeatable Disney!

Tom Rothman sat down on the couch, lit a cigar, and inhaled slowly, pondering.

"In any case, Disney can't be offended!"

Soon, he made his first decision.

Towne Pictures is developing rapidly, but even if it maintains the current development speed, it is difficult to catch up with Disney's current scale and influence without more than ten or twenty years of accumulation.

"But Don ...... It's a potential stock, and it's really unwise to go head-to-head with him. ”

Tom Rothman shook his head, thinking that the resources and connections he had invested in Donn over the past three months or so had been a huge waste.

Isn't it just that Donn Pictures has recruited Bill McNick and a group of former twentieth century Fox ministers, what's the big deal?

In the shopping mall, it is originally the profit first.

Don't look at friendship, don't talk about personal vendettas, this is a qualified businessman!

Tom Rothman thought about it for a long time, and he really couldn't think of what kind of deep hatred existed between him and Don. Is it really necessary to make such an inextricable competitive situation as it is now?

Recalling the tragic competition between the three blockbusters "Spider-Man", "Sixty Seconds of Extreme Speed", and "." at the end of June, the gains outweighed the losses, and the three Hollywood film companies made a mess, which not only made outsiders see jokes, but also took advantage of them.

"Chicken Run" produced by Aardman Animation Studios in the United Kingdom has a chance to survive in the cracks, and so far, "Chicken Run" has grossed $67.8 million in North America and more than $73 million overseas.

The total box office is more than $140 million, which is more than the box office of "Sixty Seconds" and "."

And this movie, the cost is only 45 million dollars!

Here, Don Pictures, Fox, and Disney are turning the world upside down, and secretly "Chicken Run" made a lot of money, maybe "Spider-Man", which has a global box office of nearly $1.1 billion, doesn't care, but Tom Rothman cares very much.

It's a joke seen by the hateful British!

"Someone!"

Tom Rothman slapped the couch, shouted, called the secretary back, and ordered, "In my name, send an email to West Cotton...... Oh no, send a greeting card and just say I'm congratulating him on his new job!"
