"Excluding MGM, which has declined, it doesn't count.

At present, the six major Hollywood companies are actually divided into three major factions according to the different forces of the consortium behind them.

This is also the reason why we traditional Hollywood filmmakers can compete against Bix.

Because there are great contradictions between these Wall Street conglomerates, it is impossible for them to unite and exterminate us, the traditional filmmakers who value the art of film. ”

Sitting on the recliner in the reception room of his apartment, Robinoff held a glass of whiskey and drank it while explaining the situation of the six major Hollywood companies with Peng Yichen and Yu Jing.

"The first faction is a company controlled by a Jewish-controlled financial consortium. That is, Time Warner and Diesini, the two largest Hollywood studios. But because in the subprime mortgage crisis, it was the Jewish consortium that suffered the most. So, now they can't help Hua Na and Di Shan Ni in any way.

The second group is the companies controlled by the Anglo-Saxon consortium, including: Fox, Paramount, and Universal, and the parent companies behind them, News Corporation, Viacom Group, and General Motors, are all engaged in media, retail, and industry. As a result, they suffered little in the subprime mortgage crisis and were financially strong.

That's why Murdoch wants to work with you, they're looking for more control of Hollywood. The people from the Viacom Group contacted me the other day, and the purpose is the same as Murdoch......

The third faction is the Sony Columbia Company, which is controlled by the power of the Japanese consortium. They were in Hollywood in the late '80s and early '90s. It's a pity that the economy of the Japanese country has been declining in recent years, and now Sony can only rely on its own foundation to live in front of it. So they are neutrals between the two factions, cooperating with everyone, but not deeply cooperating with anyone. ”

Peng Yichen and Yu Jing listened to the fact that there were so many factions in Hollywood, and they were a little big for a while.

Peng Yichen thought for a while and asked, "Robin, listening to you say this, the contradiction between the first two factions in Hollywood is very big. Can the Jewish consortium and the Anglo-Saxon consortium live in peace, why do they have to fight to the death?"

"Hehe, it's not because there are greater interests behind the movie. Through films, they can indirectly control the country's discourse. Sun Yizou snorted:

"The Star Banner Nation is a country of immigrants, and every race and every power can be united because of interests.

Jews are excluded and suppressed in Europe, and only the Star Flag State is the only stage for them to control more power, and they hope to use the power of the Star Flag State to help Israel develop and grow and bring greater benefits to their Jews.

And the Anglo-Saxon consortium has always believed that the Star Flag State was established by them, and they should have been a high lord. But as the Jews grow in the Star Banner Country, their influence in the Star Flag Country is getting weaker and weaker, how can they be willing.

Hollywood, as the world's largest exporter of cultural products. Every year, hundreds or thousands of films are filmed, trying to convey a certain value or a certain consciousness to countless audiences.

For the Jewish and Anglo-Saxon conglomerates, whoever controls Hollywood will have a larger say in the country. You can even use movies to pull votes for their elected political representatives.

How important do you say Hollywood control is to them?" Robinov continued.

After Peng Yichen's introduction to Robinov, he suddenly realized:

"It's like a filmmaker doing Oscar PR. Publicity, promotion, and momentum do not directly get votes, but the louder your voice and the more people who know, you can influence the final choice of the judges.

To put it bluntly, these consortia just want to use movies and media to promote and build momentum for their political representatives, so that their political discourse in the Star Flag Country will continue to increase. Even let the state introduce policies that are conducive to the development of their consortium.

That's why they're constantly vying for control of Hollywood!"

Robinov felt very novel about Peng Yichen's point of view, but after thinking about it, he nodded and said:

"You're right to say that, in fact, even the president of the Star Flag Country is just an actor in front of the voters, and the presidential election is like an Oscar selection. It's just that the actors are acting in film and television dramas, and the president is performing in speeches, debates, and media propaganda. ”

Speaking of this, Robinov glanced at Peng Yichen deeply: "Tonight, when you came to the stage to accept the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, the words you said, others thought that you were advertising your next movie." I do know that your next movie is a science fiction film, and you don't want to hit the Oscars at all.

It seems that you really pay more attention to movies and acting, and don't really care too much about commercial things.

But as an ally, I want to remind you of one thing.

At least until you complete the successful acquisition of Time Hua Na, you have to focus on business. After we jointly take control of Hua Na Pictures, I promise you that I will use Hua Na's resources to help you make the movie you want.

But now you have to focus on business matters, and we must not let the whims of the moment ruin our plans. ”

Peng Yichen rarely saw Robinov's heart-to-heart talk, and he didn't know whether the other party was true or false.

But since you have chosen to cooperate with him, you need more trust.

Of course, Peng Yichen will not relax his vigilance, but as long as Robinov sincerely cooperates with him, Peng Yichen will inevitably treat him as his good friend in the future.

Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "You're right, I really didn't think it through at the time. At the end of the day, I still prefer to be a simple director and actor. Therefore, in the future, the development of Hua Na will depend more on your waste. ”

"As long as you're in Hua Na and make real movies, not some garbage and goods, I'm your most loyal partner. If you only make bad movies that make money but are a mess, I will also look at Bix, to you. That's my attitude. Robinov said meaningfully to Peng Yichen.

"Okay, I understand...... Peng Yichen nodded seriously, turned the topic back to his intentions, and asked: "Then in your opinion, the reason why News Corporation's Murdoch wants to win me over is for the indirect Time Warner, whatever the power of the Jewish consortium in Hollywood, right?"

Robin Love nodded: "Well, I guess that's it." After all, you don't have anything else to pay attention to. ”

After Peng Yichen won the three Oscars, although other companies also sent people to contact him, they were only middle-level in their companies.

The News Corporation, however, sent the only daughter of the "prince" to contact him, and the plan was certainly not small.

In business cooperation, the identity and status of the contacts between the two parties directly represent the importance of the cooperation between the two parties.

It can be seen from this that Murdoch does attach great importance to Peng Yichen's recent small actions in Hua Na.

"News Corp and Foucus ideas, let's put them aside for now. I have something to tell you. Robinov continued.

"You say. Peng Yichen nodded back.

Robinov gave himself another little whiskey and said with a smile: "Do you know about Summit Entertainment? Recently, their president contacted me and said that he wanted to cooperate with you. ”

"Summit Entertainment? is the company that invested in the filming of the "Twilight" series and "Bomb Disposal Unit"? They have been the hottest independent film company in Hollywood in the past two years, what are they looking for me to work with?" Peng Yichen was a little puzzled.

Robinov smiled and took out a script and handed it to Peng Yichen, "I want to ask you to be the director of this project." And they promised that the hero and heroine of the movie could be chosen by you. It's just that in some supporting roles, they use their own actors. Of course, all roles will only be enabled after you have auditioned and you have consented to them. ”

Sitting on the side, Yu Jing, who had been silent, also became a little interested at this time, sat on the arm of Peng Yichen's chair, and read the script with him.

"You may not know that Rob Fourman, the president of Summit Entertainment, has a very good relationship with director Annie Lee. Originally, he wanted to find Li An to guide this movie. But director Li An thought that he was not suitable for this movie, like Rob strongly recommended that you shoot this movie. Robinov explained with a smile.

"If you're interested, I think you can give it a try. It's an iconoclastic action drama with a very well-written script, but it's not a traditional commercial genre movie. Perfect for your style. Robinov looked at Peng Yichen and looked at the script with interest and continued.

"My style, what style am I?" Peng Yichen heard this, raised his head and asked Robinov.

"Anti-genre? Most of your movies are anti-genre movies. The anti-war theme movie, you made it into a comedy, the gangster movie, you made a political satire, and "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", which is said to be a horror movie, but you made a black humor movie. Robinov seems to have really studied Peng Yichen's movies seriously, and he said earlier that he liked Peng Yichen's movies, but it was not just an excuse.

"When you say that, it seems like it's true. It seems that there is only one "Twelve Warriors", I didn't make it into an anti-genre film, and the others are a bit of an anti-genre movie. Peng Yichen was very interested in Robinov's statement.

"Would you like to take on this project?" asked Robinov.

Peng Yichen thought about it, since he came to this world, he has not acted in a movie written by someone else.

Now Summit Entertainment is full of sincerity in cooperating with him, not only asking him to be the director, but even the male and female protagonists are at his disposal.

They are known for their great respect for the artistic creation of film directors and will not interfere with the film director's freedom of creation and film editing rights.

In addition, this script is really well written, which makes Peng Yichen take some action.

"If they can wait until the end of this year, after I've finished my sci-fi movie, and then start working on this script, then I'll say yes!" he finally agreed.

After all, Summit Entertainment will be one of the two major independent film companies named by Hollywood and Lionsgate in the future, and strengthening cooperation with them will have a lot of benefits for its future development in Times Warner and even Hollywood.

Robinov nodded in agreement, and just as he was about to say something, the mobile phone suddenly stopped his conversation with Peng Yichen.

Robinov and Peng Yichen apologized, took out their mobile phones and connected the call.

"Robin, I have good news here! David Ellison and Ivy Nyvo's family have agreed to our stock purchase. They asked Director Peng Yichen to send someone to contact them immediately, hoping to negotiate the specific stock sale price and payment method as soon as possible. ”

The person over there said it very loudly, and Peng Yichen and Yu Jing, who were sitting next to him, all heard the words vaguely.

"Haha, fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life. I just called by my personal legal advisor, and I authorized him to communicate with David about the acquisition of Time Wara shares. It seems that David, they have finally agreed to our plan. ”

When Peng Yichen arrived, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, "Okay, I'll also notify Huaxia immediately." Let them send someone over and talk to David about the sale of the stock. At the same time, we can also start acquiring the outstanding shares of Time Warper. ”

Peng Yichen's plan of "ants swallowing elephants" can finally be officially kicked off from now on.
