Of course, Alain Ryder Jr.'s promise will only help Zhang Junyi distribute the film when the quality of the film he received is above the standard after being evaluated by Twentieth Century Fox Film Company. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

If the film that Zhang Junyi took by then was obviously a hit on the street, even if the relationship between the two people was good, it would be impossible for Alain Ryder Jr. to help Zhang Junyi use the distribution channels of Twentieth Century Fox, after all, friendship is friendship, business is business, these are two different things, of course, Zhang Junyi also understands the underlying meaning.

What's more, Zhang Junyi is very self-aware, he and little Alain Ryder are only meeting for the first time, but the two are chatting more speculatively, and they can't say how deep their friendship is, and there can't be a 'love at first sight' between men.

Moreover, in the United States, even if you have a good relationship, business is business, which has nothing to do with the depth of friendship.

Fortunately, Zhang Junyi is already a surprise for him to be able to get this kind of promise, although even if Zhang Junyi does not pass Alan Ryder's Twentieth Century Fox Jr., it will take a little effort at that time, and it will not be possible to encounter the point where the film is nowhere to be released, but the current result is even more happy for Zhang Junyi.

For Zhang Junyi, it is best to be able to solve Hollywood affairs with connections in this circle of Hollywood, so as to avoid his excessive dependence on personal relationships outside the Hollywood circle to the greatest extent.

Because Zhang Junyi knows that if he excessively uses the relationship outside the Hollywood circle, it may not be a good thing for him, after all, every circle has rules between each circle, and it is okay to use it occasionally, but if it is used frequently, not to mention how much Zhang Junyi will pay is not worth the favor, it is also an indirect situation of breaking the rules for the Hollywood circle.

Therefore, Zhang Junyi is already very productive for Alain Ryder Jr. to be able to give himself such a promise, and as for the future business, Zhang Junyi does not think that Alan Ryder Jr. will be too mean for him to do things without giving face.

In the United States, Alain Ryder Jr. is the head of the group after all, and everything must be considered from the maximization of the interests of the group.

。。。。。。 Golden Section。。。。。。

Before Chris Columbus left, Zhang Junyi still gave him the biggest reassurance, after all, Chris Columbus has been too physically and mentally exhausted for this "Home Alone" in recent months, and Chris Columbus Zhang Junyi, who worked hard for himself, couldn't bear to worry about him after the work was completed and he had a bad rest.

Seeing Chris Columbus come to open with satisfaction, Zhang Junyi also returned to his study with a smile.

It is not for nothing that Zhang Junyi did not go to another place to rest or relax and returned to the study, but it happened that when he was answering Chris Columbus's question, Zhang Junyi suddenly remembered an important thing that he had overlooked.

As for what Zhang Junyi was ignored by himself, it really happened to be related to Twentieth Century Fox Film Company, just when Zhang Junyi mentioned Twentieth Century Fox, Zhang Junyi realized that if he didn't intervene, Twentieth Century Fox would be acquired by Murdoch, an Australian media giant, two years later.

"It seems that I have been a little too negligent recently, and I can forget this kind of thing!" Zhang Junyi sat behind the desk, drank the red wine in the wine glass in his hand, and said to himself with a wry smile.

Although the negligence of this matter did not cause any bad consequences, it was not a trivial matter for Zhang Junyi.

Although the whole thing about Twentieth Century Fox has been recalled now, this incident still sounded a wake-up call for Zhang Junyi, for himself who has just arrived in the United States, any missed opportunity may invisibly delay his development for a few years or even longer.

To say that Zhang Junyi's dedication to Hollywood's 'seven' film companies is not necessarily Twentieth Century Fox, and Twentieth Century Fox is not Zhang Junyi's primary goal in choosing the 'Seven', after all, compared with Australia's media giant Murdoch, Zhang Junyi has no advantage in other aspects except for funds, but things are not counted like this, for himself, a mistake is a mistake, and there is no need to find any objective reasons for his mistakes.

So after sending Chris Columbus away, Zhang Junyi returned to his study alone, one is self-reflection, and the most important thing is to recall the development of Hollywood's "Seven" in the next few years.

If God gives it and doesn't take it, he will be punished by God, Zhang Junyi doesn't want to suffer God's curse.

Zhang Junyi sat behind the desk, squinting his eyes, shaking the wine glass in his hand, and taking a sip of red wine from time to time, while recalling the development of the 'Big Seven' film companies in Hollywood in the past few years.

For Hollywood, the 80s were not a quiet era.

To say that the change of ownership of the 20th Century Fox two years later can be described as setting off a frenzy of continuous changes of ownership among the "Big Seven" companies in Hollywood in the 80s.

In 1984, Rupert Murdoch, a media magnate from Australia, bought Twentieth Century Fox from Mark Ritchie and Marvin Davis, and he did not make major changes to the film department, and he also poached Barry Diller from Paramount to create the Fox Television Network.

Then there is the acquisition of Universal Pictures by the Panasonic Group of the small island country, and it can be said that Universal Pictures has continued to grow and develop since 1962, and Universal Pictures can be said to be the top Hollywood film company that has changed hands the most times among the 'Big Seven'.

Also in 1950, American Music Company (MCA) agent Lou Wazeldman signed a contract with Universal for his star James Stewart, that is, James Stewart filmed "Winchester 73" for Universal, and the main salary was paid from the box office of the film. In 1958, American Music bought Universal's 1.5-square-kilometer studio, and the two companies grew closer, with American Music's clients Doris Day, Lana Turner, and Gary Grant all becoming Universal's signed actors.

In 1962, American Music merged with Universal, and the new company was called MCA Universal, and the new owner brought what Universal could only dream of, and all of American Music's clients, including directors and stars, could actually be used by Universal, and Universal was finally expected to return to the ranks of first-class film companies after nearly 40 years. But it came too late, because moviegoers were losing so quickly.

In the '70s, Universal became a television company with a series of blockbuster films, including "The Airport," "The Trick of the Trick," "American Painting" and "Jaws."

In order to raise more money for the broadcast and cable businesses, the head of the American Music Company, W. Zelman, sold Universal to the small island company Panasonic Electric shortly after the Australian media magnate Rupert Murdoch bought Twentieth Century Fox from Mark Ritchie and Marvin Davis in 1984. When Seagram acquired Universal, it was determined to build a media empire, buying PolyGram and several other entertainment companies in 1999, but Seagram, who was unfamiliar with the entertainment industry, soon paid the price for its blind expansion.

In 2000, Vivendi, a French water conglomerate, became the owner of Seagram, and Vivendi clearly attached great importance to Universal, as the new combined company would be called Vivendi Global. In 2004, Vivendi, riddled with debt, had to sell 80 percent of Universal's shares to General Electric, which brought Universal and its NBC together to form a new company, NBC Universal, a name that remains in use today.

Although the ownership of the company changed every few years from the eighties, Universal Pictures returned to Hollywood's leading ranks under Longmaire.

Mainly through collaborations with powerful production companies such as Amblin and Morgan Stream, Universal has produced a number of blockbuster films, including Jurassic Park, Gladiator () (Gladiator Bar), the "Mummy" series, as well as "The Impostor" and "King Kong" (King Kong Bar). Ridley Scott (American Gangsters), Paul Greengrass (Spy Films 2 & 3) and Judd Apato (Forty Years Old Virgin and One Night Belly) have all worked with Universal many times. In 2007, six of Universal's films grossed more than $100 million in North America and $1 billion overseas.

Therefore, in Zhang Junyi's view, Universal Pictures is the most bizarre Hollywood top film company among Hollywood's 'Big Seven'.

With Universal Pictures changing hands for the second time in the twentieth century, the third Hollywood 'Big Seven' studio changed hands was Columbia Pictures.

In 1989, Sony spent nearly $5 billion to acquire the major Hollywood film company Columbia, including $3.4 billion to buy Coca-Cola's equity in Coca-Cola and assume $1.6 billion in attached debt to Columbia. Of course, Sony's acquisition was many times more impactful than its acquisition of MGM in 2005, more than a decade later.

At that time, the economic invasion of the small island nation caused by Sony's acquisition caused a large public outcry in the United States.

At the end of the 80s, when the major industries of the United States were defeated by small island corporations, it is well known that the Americans drove Japanese cars, and there was a sense of panic and shame among the Americans.

Sony's acquisition of Colombia has caused an uproar in the United States, you know, Colombia is a symbol of American film and television culture, and even the registered trademark is the Statue of Liberty in the United States. In this regard, the whole country of America exclaimed: Do the people of the small island nation plan to seize even the culture of the United States?

At the time, on the cover of Newsweek, Columbia Pictures' trademark Statue of Liberty was replaced by a kimono and a smiling geisha from the island nation. "Small Island Nation Attacks Hollywood" was the magazine's most striking headline, and it also published a special issue of dozens of pages under the title "Small Island State Corporations Bought America's Soul", in which the results of public opinion polls asserted that Sony's acquisition was "a more terrible threat than the military power of the White Bear of the North"!

In the United States at that time, for several days, various American news media reported on the acquisition at length, expressing strong dissatisfaction with Sony's acquisition of Columbia Pictures.

In his previous life, Zhang Junyi even heard a joke about this incident that illustrated the general dissatisfaction of Americans with small island people at that time: in a school class, the teacher asked who said a maxim, the whole class was silent, and a small island nation stood up and answered, Franklin, after the teacher praised the students of the small island country, criticized the American students for not knowing as much about the history of their own country as the small island people, at this time an American student whispered: "Kill the small island people", the teacher was very angry and asked loudly: " Who said that?" and all the American students replied in unison, "Truman."

In fact, to say that in the eighties of the twentieth century, the Hollywood 'seven' level film company in the United States changed hands for the first time, objectively speaking, it was not Twentieth Century Fox, but Columbia, Zhang Junyi knew that this year, Columbia would be acquired by the famous American company Coca-Cola, but this information was automatically filtered out by Zhang Junyi in his heart, after all, compared with the local signature enterprises in the United States, Zhang Junyi still has self-knowledge, even if he wants to participate, it is impossible.

Moreover, Zhang Junyi also knew that Coca-Cola's acquisition of Colombia this year immediately became one of the top ten news in Hollywood that year.

One is for drinks, and the other is for film and television, but the two companies that were originally unrelated to each other got together. In response to the media's inquiry, Coca-Cola's chairman of the board of directors, Gao Shida, said, "We don't see Columbia as a film company, we think of it as an entertainment business." Selling movies is the same as selling Coke, it's about calculating the cost and developing the market, and I want to make every audience drink Coca-Cola when they watch Columbia films.

Even this year in the previous life, with Coca-Cola, the boss with strong capital, Columbia Company made "My Fair Lady", a romantic comedy that year, which was humorous and funny and full of a sense of the times, and was one of the best comedies of the 80s.
