Text Chapter 639 Katzenberg who ran away from Disney
As one of Hollywood's top "ghosts", Katzenberg has his own pride, which even the "tyrant" Michael Eisner cannot "blaspheme".
Seeing that the general trend of the media splashing their own dirty water has formed, Katzenberg no longer intends to waste more time to justify, as the so-called clean self-purity, turbidity self-turbidity. Moreover, as the head of Disney Studios, "The Lion of Kings" failed miserably at the feet of MGM's "The Lion King", and Katzenberg, who still had to nod his face, was still a little guilty about it.
After all, "The Lion of Kings" was "polished" by him Katzenberg, and it can definitely be regarded as a masterpiece in the field of animated films, and the box office also shows the audience's recognition of "The Lion of Kings". However, unfortunately, "The Lion of Kings" met the perverted "The Lion King", which became a stepping stone for the other party to ascend to the altar - Katzenberg was really unlucky.
However, failure is failure, and although Katzenberg is arrogant, he still has this bit of courage - he is quite generous in admitting his failure and part of his responsibility for being defeated by MGM's "The Lion King".
But, I'm sorry, it's one thing for Katzenberg to be willing to take some responsibility, but it doesn't mean that he is willing to be this "backstabber".
Obviously, the situation outside now has made it clear that Michael Eisner is going to push himself out to be the "backstabber". In the face of such a painful situation, it would be strange if Katzenberg could swallow his anger, or the sentence - "The man who carries the pot" also has a temper.
What's more, in the past few years, Michael Eisner has been suppressing himself, Katzenberg has had enough, and the "weeds" in him have long grown crazy, so it's time for some people to see the power of the "backstabber".
Katzenberg, who has not been to the company for a few days, attracted the fingers of his colleagues as soon as he walked into Disney's headquarters in Burbank, after all, the media poured too much dirty water on Katzenberg during this time - it really frightened a group of "melon-eating people" who did not know the truth.
didn't bother to care about these criticisms, Katzenberg walked directly into Michael Eisner's office, even though the secretary at the door kept blocking it, but it still couldn't stop Katzenberg who wanted to "explode".
Looking at the cold Katzenberg, Michael Eisner waved his hand and said to his secretary and the Disney executives who reported to him: "You guys go out first, I have something to talk about with Mr. Katzenberg." ”
Fuck, as soon as they heard the words "tyrant", the people in the office did not hesitate, and trotted like a burning ass except for Michael Eisner's office - the two big guys, they don't want to be harmed by the pond fish.
Michael Eisner, who was sitting in the chair, pointed to the chair in front of the desk, and said with a not very good face: "Jeffrey, sit down." ”
"Michael, you're mean enough. Ignoring Michael Eisner's words, Katzenberg threw the newspaper in his hand in front of Eisner and said in a cold tone: "You want me to be your 'scapegoat' again this time?
Without even looking at what Katzenberg threw in front of him, Michael Eisner knew that it must have been the criticism of Katzenberg in the major newspapers and magazines in the past few days, so he responded lightly: "Jeffrey, you can't say that, we are all for the good of Disney." Besides, this time "The Lion of Kings" failed miserably at the box office to MGM's "The Lion King", this should be your responsibility, right?"
As soon as I heard Michael Eisner's words, Katzenberg sneered in his heart, and knew that this "hypocrite" must be so shirking responsibility. So, with a sneer, Katzenberg said: "The box office of "The Lion of Kings" is not as good as "The Lion King", but it has also brought hundreds of millions of dollars in profits to Disney. Moreover, it seems that it is you, Michael Eisner, who decided to make a bet against MGM, not me, and everyone should know whose responsibility is. ”
Waving his hand, Michael Eisner said directly: "There's no point in arguing about this, or is it that sentence, the box office fiasco of "The Lion of Kings" failed to MGM's "The Lion King", is it okay?"
Seeing Katzenberg, who wanted to defend himself, Michael Eisner directly didn't give him a chance, stood up, and said solemnly: "By the way, Mr. Katzenberg, you came just in time." On behalf of the Disney Board of Directors, I would now like to formally inform you that the decision has been made to suspend you because you have caused significant damage to the company. ”
Holding a big grass, if Katzenberg was only provoked by Michael Eisner's style before, now it is directly a "burst seed", and the inner small universe has completely burst out. After listening to Michael Eisner's brazen words, Katzenberg really wanted to stab this "hypocrite" to death a few times. Katzenberg felt that he was really blind, how did he become a "good friend" with such a person back then, and he stupidly followed him from Paramount to Disney.
Although he really wanted to beat Michael Eisner, but to be a Hollywood boss, Katzenberg still had this self-control, and he was stunned to suppress the monstrous anger that was churning in his chest.
"Good, good, good!" said the words almost through gritted teeth, and Katzenberg stared at Michael Eisner like a beast that chooses people to eat, and continued, "You've done a great job. ”
There is no doubt that once he is suspended by the Disney board of directors, then the rumors and scandals reported by the outside media will be completely confirmed, and Disney will no longer have an inch on his Katzenberg side. Although Katzenberg didn't care, he would never be affected by this kind of bird anger, so he directly chose to be tough.
Taking out an envelope from his bosom and throwing it at Michael Eisner's face, Katzenberg sneered and said, "As you wish, this is my resignation." ”
After saying this, Katzenberg didn't even look at Michael Eisner, and turned around and left his office, leaving the other party with a gorgeous back.
However, at the moment when Katzenberg was about to open the door and walk out, Michael Eisner, who had an extremely bad face, said coldly: "Whether you believe it or not, the things in the newspaper have nothing to do with me!"
"Huh!"
There is no nostalgia, there is just endless anger, Katzenberg just left Disney where he had struggled for 10 years, and next, this Hollywood "ghost" will start his more brilliant life - Disney will also face a strong opponent.
For Michael Eisner's forced explanation at the last moment, Katzenberg replied "hehe", anyway, he didn't believe it at all - the ghost would believe that it had nothing to do with him Michael Eisner.
Although Michael Eisner is really not interesting, this time, Katzenberg really wronged him, because the real "mastermind" is someone else!
