Chapter 1466: Strong Woman
Because Yin Jun is in Xiangjiang, many Hollywood giants know about this place.
is also because Yin Jun has an identity, so unless it is a very important matter, or he is filming in the United States to discuss business, he can summon others to come to Xiangjiang to talk about anything.
The chestnut-haired Western woman who arrived in Xiangjiang today was invited by Yin Jun.
Her name is Shirley Lansing, 35 years old, and she is the executive vice president of 20th Century Fox, ranking third in 20th Century Fox after Alain Ryder Jr. and Spring.
Shirley Lansing, who seems to be infinitely beautiful, actually knows her own difficulties.
Occupational discrimination can be found everywhere, and even more so in Hollywood.
Female stars are never as popular as male stars, and they are not as long-lasting as male stars, and the same is true for female behind-the-scenes staff.
The career ceiling is more and more obvious on Shirley Lansing's body.
She couldn't help it.
Alain Ryder Jr. is only 54 years old this year, which is the age of prime of life, and he has a good father, who is destined to not leave his job unless he makes a big mistake.
First Vice President Spring, who is only 7 years older than Shirley Lansing, is only 42 years old this year, and is still a confidant of Alain Ryder.
Once Alain Ryder retires, then it will definitely be Spring's success, and for at least twenty years, it will not be Shirley Lansing's turn.
How many years is a woman's career prime?
At best, 20 years, 30 years at most, and now that Shirley Lansing is 35 years old, does she have 20 years to wait for the throne?
A woman's family is just as important as her children.
Therefore, after receiving several consecutive phone calls from Yin Jun, after half a year of consideration, Shirley Lansing decided to come to Xiangjiang and talk to Yin Jun.
The reason for Sherry Lansing's arrival at Hong Kong is also due to recent rumors that Australian media mogul Murdoch wants to call a job for 20th Century Fox.
It's not just rumors, either.
Shirley Lansing knew that Murdoch had met with the shareholders many times, with Alain Ryder, Spring, and others, but she was the only one who attended the meeting.
This made Shirley Lansing very embarrassed and unhappy.
I'm also the third-ranked vice president, how can you ignore me so much?
pondered that if Murdoch became the owner of 20th Century Fox, he might not have such a good future, which was also the reason for Shirley Lan Xin's visit to Hong Kong.
Yin Jun asked Shirley Lanxin to come, who was also a vice president.
But the position and authority of this vice president are completely different from those she held at 20th Century Fox.
Because the Kirin Group has two film companies, United Arts Pictures is one of the seven giants of Hollywood, and Disney has become more and more courageous in the past two years, becoming the eighth largest force.
Combined, these two studios are undoubtedly the largest film companies in the world.
Shirley Lansing is in charge of all the business of these two film companies, including planning, production, distribution, peripherals, etc., which can be said to be really high-powered, more powerful than his former boss Alan Ryder.
Shirley Lansing is also a very enterprising woman, and since she can go further, why not give it a try?
Now in fact, what she is more worried about is that after talking to Yin Jun in detail, she did not get Yin Jun's trust, which made this opportunity go to waste.
So for this meeting and negotiation, Shirley Lansing specially prepared for half a month, made a detailed plan, and handed it over to Yin Jun in advance.
This time, she came here to elaborate on her strategy for the next few years.
Yin Jun asked Shirley Lansing to take charge of the film business of the North American branch of the Kirin Group, of course, not to cut Tang Shuxuan's power.
As a woman who is not from economic management, Tang Shuxuan has been working very hard to manage the North American branch of Kirin Group in recent years.
If it weren't for the help of a few vice presidents, as well as the Disney TV channel and Robert Egger growing up, Tang Shuxuan would have been haggard.
Don't forget, she still has three children to take care of.
Then in the past two years, Yin Jun also gave her two films in a row, both of which are categories that Tang Shuxuan likes very much, and "Mother-Daughter Love" repaid her with an Oscar nomination for Best Director, which made Tang Shuxuan very happy and encouraged.
Her favorite thing is still filming, or making her favorite movies.
Therefore, Tang Shuxuan told Yin Jun more than once, asking him to hurry up and find a good professional manager and take over the burden on himself.
Yin Jun's favorite successor must be Robert Iger, but Robert Iger's age is too young, and he has no qualifications, and he has not even controlled the ABC TV news network, so it is naturally impossible to become the president of the North American branch of the Kirin Group.
The rest of the people from Disney and United Arts Film Company, Yin Jun can't look down on either, because history has proven that these people are inactive.
Originally, Yin Jun wanted Michael Eisner to be the president of Disney for more than ten years, but he didn't expect that he had a deep grudge with him in this life, from last year to this year, he called him several times, but Michael Eisner did not respond, but said that he still wanted to compete with Yin Jun.
He didn't dare to overwhelm Yin Jun anymore, such seven or eight consecutive super-grossing movies and Oscar-level movies have completely dispelled the superiority of the six Hollywood giants.
In this world, no one dares to say that they can surpass Yin Jun in film and television entertainment.
In this regard, Yin Jun is definitely a genius who has not been born for a hundred years.
But Michael Eisner does not admit defeat, he wants to make good movies himself, and strives to overwhelm the Kirin Group a few times, so that he will have face.
Michael Eisner doesn't come, Barry Diller won't come, Avery Katzenberg is a little interested, but now is not the best time, until Barry Dilele is poached by Fox, the trio breaks up, and Katzenberg will have the possibility of starting anew.
These three giants will not join the Kirin Group in a short time, so the headhunter recommended Shirley Lansing to Yin Jun.
As soon as he heard the name, Yin Jun immediately surfaced her information.
For people outside of Hollywood, Shirley Lansing is certainly not so familiar, but in fact, this strong woman is at the helm of a top film and television media group.
After all the three giants of Paramount jumped ship and left, it was Shirley Lansing, who came from 20th Century Fox, who quickly stabilized the morale of the army and produced many excellent movies in one go, including "Braveheart", "Forrest Gump", "Mission Impossible", "Titanic" and so on, so that Paramount has always been at the forefront of the six Hollywood majors.
It can also be seen from these movies that in addition to management skills, Shirley Lansing has a good eye and captures many of the best in the 90s.
Thinking about these few years, Tang Shuxuan has been a little tired of supporting, and in the face of the active development and development of the two major companies, it is obvious that he can't keep up with the rhythm, and Yin Jun also intends to separate more powers from each other.
At the beginning, all the power of the North American branch was concentrated on Tang Shuxuan, on the one hand, because there was no other suitable candidate, and on the other hand, because Tang Shuxuan was Chinese and had a good character, it was not easy to betray Yin Jun, who was also Chinese, in Hollywood.
Now that the company has developed steadily, Yin Jun must decide on the management candidate, and it will definitely not be like this.
Tang Shuxuan will still hold the position of president of the North American branch in the past two years, but specific film companies, television networks, animation companies, amusement parks and peripheral projects must be classified into special personnel.
Shirley Lansing's more than enough to be the president of the film department for more than ten years.
The headhunters are all very powerful, they saw Shirley Lansing's vacillation, and did not act immediately, but found Yin Jun, the master, and began to match.
Now that the two have entered the substantive negotiation stage, if this poaching and job hopping can be successful, the headhunter can at least get a huge intermediary fee of more than 5 million US dollars!
Compared with Yin Jun's understanding of her, Shirley Lansing's understanding of Yin Jun is actually quite a lot.
Women are naturally delicate, no matter what is commonly known as a female man, in fact, they all have the nature of a woman.
Shirley Lansing is such a neat and neat woman, but there is no lack of delicacy.
As early as when Yin Jun made a blockbuster acquisition of United Arts Pictures and The Disney Company, and combined them to form a new company, Shirley Lansing studied Yin Jun.
At that time, the six giants all discussed giving Yin Jun a good look and driving him out of Hollywood.
Shirley Lansing suggested to Alain Ryder Jr. that he could cooperate with Yin Jun conditionally to help him gain a firm foothold, so as to get a few good scripts in Yin Jun's hands and test the waters in Hollywood.
Because Shirley Lansing found through research that Yin Jun is definitely not just showing off his power in Asia, he is not just the first screenwriter in Asia.
It can be seen from the super classics published by Yin Jun that he has a very stable grasp of the tastes of European and American people.
Whether it is "Jurassic Park" or "The Da Vinci Code", or "Forrest Gump", etc., it is definitely valuable to adapt it into a movie.
At that time, Shirley Lansing was looking at the film and television adaptation rights of these books.
It's a pity that Alain Ryder Jr. and Spolin didn't listen to Shirley Lansing's advice and didn't go to show kindness to Yin Jun.
However, they still contacted Tang Shuxuan on the other hand, wanting to get the adaptation rights of Yin Jun's book.
For their initiative, Shirley Lansing couldn't help but laugh.
Do you think Yin Jun is a Westerner?
Is it the kind of person whose business is business and hatred is hate?
He is definitely a typical Oriental, and Orientals have to look at people and relationships with each other in everything they do, so these are all mixed up!
Everyone belongs to the stage of open and secret fighting, can he still give you these adaptation rights?
Facts have also proved that Shirley Lansing's idea is right, and Tang Shuxuan refused these requests without thinking.
Then, United Arts Film Company relied on classics such as "Beverly Hills Detective", "Terminator", and "First Blood" to gain a firm foothold, and Disney even won more than $800 million at the global box office with "The Lion King", slapping many people's faces.
In addition, Disney TV Channel's "American Idol" and "Happy Hotel" both dominated the small screen, receiving more than 60 million viewers, which is menacing.
Since then, the Kirin Group has no longer been afraid of the Hollywood Six, and Paramount has lost the best opportunity to cooperate with the Kirin Group.
Shirley Lansing looked at little Alain Ryder's distressed and regretful looks, and sighed in her heart.
If you had known this, what did you do earlier?
A person like Yin Jun, don't look polite on weekdays, but he is a genius, and it is absolutely impossible to admit defeat.
This kind of person should be treated in a softening way, rather than being tough against him.
Now there is no way to reconcile the relationship at all, and the Kirin Group has also made great progress, leaving the six Hollywood majors far behind and becoming the well-deserved number one in Hollywood, which really makes people not know what to say.
