Chapter 256: Chip's name is Annie
Just as Donn had expected, his speech caused a great sensation, and when he bowed off the stage, almost the audience stood up and gave him a round of applause.
"You're saying a great job!" Natalie sighed heartily as he stepped down.
Don smiled, "Thank you." ”
Natalie sighed, "If only it were true." ”
Donne's face changed slightly, and after sitting down, he turned sideways and said softly: "Nat, you have to understand that Hollywood is nearly a hundred years old, and it is very difficult for this old stubborn to change some inherent rules. ”
Natalie bowed her head slightly, "I know, but ...... You also said that it's a new era, and Hollywood's oppression of women is just too much. ”
Donn's brow furrowed, "Are you accusing me?"
Natalie took his hand and shook her head, "No, in my opinion, you're already a gentleman. ”
"Gentleman?"
Don smiled dumbly, he was very self-aware, and he didn't think he could match such a sacred word.
Natalie bit her lip and said, "Donn, you know what? I've heard a lot about it, and there are a lot of actresses who have been ...... by big shots. Hurt, that's a crime! However, in order to continue their careers, most of them choose to swallow their anger. ”
Don's eyes tightened.
Don't mention it, Harvey Weinstein, definitely typical!
Indeed, compared with this kind of scum, Donn's small shortcomings are completely negligible.
What's more, Don is handsome, young, golden, and talented, and is the favorite date of many girls.
It's not so much that he is an actress with unspoken rules, but that he comes from the unspoken rules of actresses.
Don held her hand tightly, his voice was very soft, but loud, "Honey, believe me, even if I can't bring earth-shaking changes to Hollywood, I will definitely bring new ideas to the aging Hollywood!"
……
After the forum, several reporters immediately rushed up and surrounded Donn and Natalie, "Miss Portman, are you a feminist fighter?"
Natalie's delicate brows frowned slightly, and she smiled: "I am willing to protect the legitimate rights and interests of a woman at any time." ”
"Mr. Walker, I'm really surprised, it turns out that you are also a feminist!"
This sentence was a bit ridiculous, Tang En remained silent, and said lightly: "This is not surprising, freedom, democracy, justice, and equality are the common pursuit of the new century, and they cannot be treated differently because of gender differences." I have a lot of female friends, and I want them to have more rights. ”
After a few questions, Donn and Natalie's answers were watertight, and finally a reporter couldn't help it, "Donn, you lashed out at Disney in your speech, are you taking revenge on feminism?"
"Revenge? I don't quite understand what you mean. The corners of Don's mouth twitched slightly, and his face was calm, "Disney's movies are not comparable to Don's Pictures movies at all. I am strong and he is weak, what shall I retaliate against?"
Natalie also smiled and mended, "This gentleman, you may not be paying attention to the box office market, hehe, recently Donn Pictures and Disney have released a new film. "Memory Fragments", which invested 5 million, completed the box office crushing of "Ten Thousand Kinds of Style" with an investment of 21 million US dollars, and it is really not revenge. ”
The reporter was about to question again, but Don En quickly interrupted him and said in a deep voice: "I repeat, there is no contradiction between Don Pictures and Disney, please stop spreading rumors and making trouble, the atmosphere in Hollywood is very harmonious, and Tang En Pictures and Disney are completely normal market competition, and do not involve any other aspects!"
"My speech did involve some Disney products, but I just talked about the matter, Barbie's deformed figure must be spurned by the times, and if Disney's cartoons want to take off for the third time, they must make huge changes in the shape, style, and taste of the princess! Of course, "Mulan" is very good!"
Natalie laughs and adds, "yes, I love Mulan, and that's the template that Disney cartoons should be aiming for." ”
In fact, she never saw it.
……
Michael Eisner listened to his assistant's debriefing, his face gloomy and his mood was irritable.
Donn's methods surprised him once again.
He actually fought back through a feminist forum!
With the advent of the new century, the trend of feminist thought has become more and more intense, and Donn's fire has undoubtedly made the atmosphere of feminism more and more high.
It's definitely a win-win deal!
Feminism has been unprecedentedly high because of Tangen, and Tangen, because of the promotion of feminism, has completed the greatest play of his intentions.
A few days later, the "Disney Princess" series, which was originally selling well in the doll market, was seriously unsalable.
And Barbie is even worse, and even in New York, Boston, San Francisco and other places, a series of "anti-Barbie" parades have been set off!
Even Mattel responded quickly and held an emergency press conference, claiming that it would produce some Barbie dolls with a more "healthy" body, which is in line with market trends and feminist ideologies, and makes everyone feel at ease.
But even so, Donn's remarks and the wide publicity of the feminist media, the image of "Barbie" has also been hit like never before.
Don's hand is too ruthless!
It's simply not a way to live!
Fortunately, although Don criticized him, he also praised "Mulan", so that Disney did not cause much controversy.
As the highest-grossing director in history and the richest director, Donn's influence is too great, once he really treats Disney as ruthlessly as he treats Mattel, then Disney may also be impacted by feminist fighters, and the consequences are unimaginable.
Disney and Mattel are different, how much market value is Mattel?
Disney has a market capitalization of more than $50 billion, and once such a big thing is really stalled, billions of dollars will evaporate overnight, which is too normal!
Such a catastrophe is enough to shake Michael Eisner's position!
It wasn't until today that he truly realized Donn's energy!
He didn't know why Donn showed mercy at the last moment and let Disney go, but he understood that the abnormal competition between Disney and Down Pictures had to end.
Behind Donn, there are countless young people standing, and now there is a feminist alliance as a helper, and the influence is too great!
In any case, Donn didn't kill Disney this time, and Michael Eisner must accept it.
Give Don a call?
Michael Eisner smiled wryly, this is not a good memory.
At this time, the assistant told him that Mattel asked for assistance and asked Disney to impose the most severe sanctions on Towne Pictures!
When Michael Eisner heard this, he couldn't help but sneer, "Hollywood's affairs are not allowed for outsiders to interfere! Tell Mattel that I have my own opinions!"
The assistant understood as soon as he heard it, and felt a little sad in his heart for what happened to Mattel.
This is the tragedy of the gunman!
It's just that what surprised him even more was that seeing the big boss like this, did he want to completely admit to Tang En?
Sure enough, the next thing I heard Michael Eisner muttering, "Donne, kid...... The character is too stubborn......"
The assistant rolled his eyes and said in a low voice: "Boss, Don En likes to associate with female stars, as we all know." ”
Michael Eisner glared at him, "Are you sarcastic about Britney?"
"No, Britney she...... It's too alternative, and she's just a singer, Don's power is currently only in the film industry, and he can't reach the music industry. ”
"Huh?"
Michael Eisner's eyes lit up and he suddenly realized.
Don En is cautious enough!
The assistant whispered: "Boss, in April, Don was investigated by the FBI, and several people in Hollywood attacked him fiercely, including a girl named Anne Hathaway. ”
"Anne Hathaway?"
Michael Eisner raised his eyebrows, not very impressed with her.
It is not a good phenomenon for an actress to dare to publicly bombard a director.
He is a traditional Hollywood ruler, even if he is an enemy of Donn, even if Anne Hathaway is speaking up for Disney, it is not an intolerable behavior for a low-level actor to challenge a high-level director.
The assistant didn't think as much as he thought, and said quickly: "At that time, Anne Hathaway was auditioning for "The Princess Diaries", and then successfully became the heroine. Now, the film is set to start filming in two days. ”
Michael Eisner was very unhappy with Anne Hathaway's bad rules, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "That kid Donn is still filming in the east?"
The assistant said, "I heard...... It seems to be back, Michael Ovitz has brought in a lot of money on Wall Street, it is said that there are 300 million, or 500 million? Many studios are actively negotiating with Legendary Pictures. Don is the mastermind behind Legendary Pictures and will definitely be back to be involved in the negotiations. ”
Michael Eisner sighed, Disney wants to cooperate with Legendary Pictures on the platter investment project, it is impossible, at least not at the moment.
"Tell Anne...... Let her go to Don herself and ask for his forgiveness!"
"She's going to go by herself, I'm afraid it's ......"
Michael Eisner once again showed his strong side, snorting coldly: "Tell her that no matter what way or method, you must get Donn's forgiveness." In Hollywood, there has never been a chaste martyr! If she fails, notify the crew of "The Princess Diaries" and change the heroine!"
Disney's family has a big business, and the liquidated damages of the heroine of "The Princess Diaries" are not taken into account at all.
It's an attitude!
At the beginning, Don put forward the condition that in order to resolve the conflict, Disney must first lift the ban order, and then give an explanation and apologize.
Michael Eisner naturally couldn't apologize to a descendant in a low voice.
Take the unruly Anne Hathaway as a bargaining chip, just right.
On the one hand, Anne Hathaway can be taught a lesson and made her understand that in Hollywood, authority cannot be provoked!
On the other hand, it can be regarded as Disney's statement, giving Anne Hathaway to him, which is Disney's statement and apology.
