Chapter 385 Murdoch's Plans
Hearing Duter's words, Peng Yichen knew that last year's public opinion attacks on "Journey to the West" and him turned out to be caused by this guy.
At that time, he only knew that it was someone from the Hollywood company who deliberately targeted him.
Fortunately, he had prepared for it, otherwise he might have capsized in the gutter.
But he didn't expect that the "enemy" who dealt with him at that time would now respect him so much.
Stan Lee still said with some disapproval: "If you fight with other people on their turf, of course you will lose in the end." But now this kid is on our Hollywood turf. Does he still think he can do whatever he wants......"
"Okay, let's talk about these things when we go back to the company. The young James spoke, and the other two stopped talking.
After the three of them finished making it convenient, they washed their hands and left the bathroom.
Peng Yichen only came out of the cubicle at this time, thought thoughtfully for a while, and returned to the party scene.
As soon as I went back, I saw a very young and beautiful white girl, talking and laughing with Yu Jing.
Seeing that Peng Yichen was back, Yu Jing excitedly introduced: "Chenzi, let me introduce you to this is my new friend, Averie Murdoch...... Aweili, this is my husband, Peng Yichen. ”
The dress the girl was wearing, at first glance, it was a hand-made luxury object, and on the ears, neck, and wrists, although there were no large diamonds on them, it could be seen that all of them were made by the master.
I saw that she had a generous and decent smile on her face, stretched out her hand and shook Peng Yichen slightly, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Peng." I'm Averi and it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
Peng Yichen looked up and down carefully, this girl is tall, with delicate facial features, warm and elegant temperament, and she is also a first-class beauty among many glamorous female stars in Hollywood.
Peng Yichen shook his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
At this time, a thought suddenly flashed in Peng Yichen's mind, this girl's surname is Murdoch......
Fox's holding company is not the Star Flag Country News Corporation!
The president of News Corp. is Rupert Murdoch, and the girl in front of him must have something to do with him.
"Okay, my friend is still waiting for me over there, so I won't bother you. If you have time in the future, you must come to my house to play. ”
Aviri said and turned around and hugged Yu Jing for a while before turning around and leaving.
"Jingjing, does this girl have anything to do with News Corporation?" Peng Yichen asked Yu Jing curiously as he watched Ai Weili walk away.
"Who else in Hollywood has the surname 'Murdoch'? Averly is the granddaughter of Rupert Murdoch, the president of News Corporation. Yu Jing replied with a smile.
Then, she saw that no one around her was paying attention to them, so she put it on Peng Yichen's ear and continued:
"Averly is the granddaughter of Rupert Murdoch of News Corporation. The elder Murdoch's youngest son, and the son most likely to succeed him, James Murdoch, was her father.
As soon as she saw that you weren't there, she approached me and said that her father had invited the two of us to visit News Corp. headquarters after the Oscar season.
When you first came over, she whispered to me that there was a Foucus movie going to shoot this year. They will leave two roles for our company in the movie, and let us recommend our own actors to play!"
Peng Yichen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and thought to himself, it was Fox Company again. In this way, the person named James I heard in the toilet just now is probably the father of this Averly......
He didn't think much about it, and asked Yu Jing curiously, "What movie?"
Yu Jing smiled and continued to bite his ear and said: "Fox plans to start filming a new version of "X-Men" this year, and all the actors will be replaced by newcomers. Fox intends to develop the Chinese market, and there are two Chinese characters in it......"
"X-Men?" Peng Yichen was a little tempted by this: "This movie series is their most profitable series." In order to cooperate with us, they really went to the next place. ”
Before the superhero movie became popular, Marvel once sold the film adaptation rights of several superheroes due to the company's lack of funds. The most famous of these are "Spider-Man" bought by Columbia and "X-Men" by Foucus walking slowly.
These two series of superhero movies are also the only two superhero movie series to make money before the popularity of "Iron Man" and "The Avengers".
In the past two years, because of the acquisition of Marvel, Diesini has suddenly produced a number of popular superhero movies, which has made countless people hot.
Peng Yichen knew that in the next 10 years, Di Shan Ni relied on Marvel's superheroes to surpass Time Hua Na step by step and become the largest film company in Hollywood.
You can imagine how lucrative these superhero movies are.
Similarly, because of this wave of superhero movie craze, the X-Men under the name of Foucus have also risen, and movie images such as Dr. X, Magneto, and Wolverine have become idols sought after by fans all over the world in just a few years.
In this kind of movie, two Chinese characters are shoehorned in, and it seems that Fokesi is bound to win the Chinese film market.
What's even more intriguing is that Foucus, or the News Corporation behind it, actually plans to hand over these two such important roles to Chen Jing Film Company.
The doorway is a bit deep......
"Of course they're going to make a ......" Yu Jing didn't think as much as Peng Yichen thought, and said with a smile:
"Your "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" has won 150 million box office in North America, and "Beautiful Life" has won three more Oscars. More importantly, now that the financial crisis in the Star Flag Country is getting more and more serious, if it can't get new market dividends in China, News Corp may not be able to survive.
Old Murdoch, an old fox who has been calculating all his life, actually married a Chinese woman as his wife two years ago, not to leave a way back for their group. ”
When Peng Yichen heard Yu Jing's words, he was a little impressed by her.
It seems that after getting married, she read so much business information, and it was not in vain.
The Chinese woman in Yu Jing's mouth is the fourth temperament that the old Murdoch has just married-Deng Wendi.
But although Yu Jing's analysis is good, News Corp and Fokesi are willing to show themselves such good conditions, but it can't be just because they want to gain a foothold in China.
He didn't want to dampen Yu Jing's enthusiasm, after all, many things in Chen Jing's film company in the future really needed her to worry about more.
Peng Yichen is the same as Spiegel in his heart at this time, Murdoch's old fox probably already knows his plan to acquire Times Hua Na, this is to get a piece of the pie!
Of course, because he is still not familiar with the situation in Hollywood, Peng Yichen can't say Murdoch's real plans, whether he wants to invest in Times Huana, or has any other ideas.
Therefore, only halfway through the Oscar celebration party, he left the scene with Yu Jing.
Instead of rushing back to the hotel to rest, the two rushed directly to Robinoff's apartment in Los Angeles. I want to analyze Murdoch's thoughts from the mouth of this cooperative ally.
