Chapter 685: The Infighting of the Two Factions
"Which way is the fairy?" Gu Xiaofan asked curiously, but the glasses were looking at Chen Keer, and he felt strange in his heart, since the announcement of the Oscar nomination, this Miss Chen doesn't care much about him except for work, and I don't know why......
Joseph said, "Jett Warner." 【】”
Gu Xiaofan was stunned for a moment and said, "People from the Warner family? ”
Joseph nodded, "The person Mr. Hasson introduced is Jett Warner. ”
Gu Xiaofan's face sank when he heard this, and he said coldly: "Even if you can't win this award, you won't go to the Warner family." ”
Joseph knew at a glance that he had misunderstood, and hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "Jett and Abel are two Warners, and they are not all the way...... Mr. Hasson is Jett's faction. ”
At this moment, Gu Xiaofan was suddenly a little confused, he didn't want to show that he was a layman, and he didn't know how to respond, so he listened to Chen Ke'er explain softly beside him:
"Time Warner was founded by four brothers surnamed Warner, and finally the youngest fourth child began to introduce capital to sell Time Warner to outsiders, but within the company, the four Warners still have a certain amount of shares and can control the company...... It wasn't until 2000 that Warner's fourth family introduced Wall Street capital, and used AOL, an Internet company, to completely acquire Warner, dilute the shares, and then when the Internet bubble burst, Warner's fourth family cashed out a large sum of money, and then re-acquired the shares of the other three brothers, and the Abel you have seen is at the helm of the fourth family...... And this Jeter, the representative of the other three families...... It's out of ground now......"
Gu Xiaofan suddenly realized, it turned out that Hawkeye was just a pawn, and there were big roles behind him, alas, to put it bluntly, among the four Warner families, there were traitors and swallowed the shares of the other three brothers, these three brothers were not convinced, and they wanted to start doing things again.
In other words, he has now finally begun to contact Warner's core interest group, which can't help but make Gu Xiaofan a little excited.
Thinking of this, he secretly thought to himself that in this way, it seems that Hasen is indeed not exaggerating, but there are two factions within the Warner Group that are tug-of-war, and Jett's faction is fighting for himself, just to compete with Abel for the right to operate.
It's okay, the more fierce the competition between these two factions, the better he is to secretly plan his own plan, Gu Xiaofan doesn't care about Warner boss, fourth, what he wants is to turn Warner into his own company, but he can't find out yet.
"Since Mr. Jett has invited us to go, let's go meet him." Gu Xiaofan really wanted to see the people behind Hasen.
Joseph was delighted and said, "Okay, then I'll drive you there." ”
Gu Xiaofan saw a hint of joy in Joseph's eyes, and knew that he was led by the Jett family from beginning to end, since he was confident that he would be nominated for a movie, how could he not think of what to do after the nomination?
I have to make my heart itch, and then scare myself at this critical moment, and then help out, making it clear that I am trying to tell myself that I don't want to do anything without them behind my back.
Gu Xiaofan secretly thought to himself in his heart, these Jews are really more cunning than the other, and they will already have to keep a snack in the future, and they don't know if they will bury them, but thinking of this, Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but glance at Chen Ke'er again, thinking to himself, You, the female Zhuge Liang, how could you not expect today?
This is not like the style of Miss Chen, who is like a god.
Everyone got into the car, and while driving all the way, Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but lean over, and said softly to Chen Keer: "Did I offend you with something?" ”
"Is there one?" Chen Ke'er didn't look at her, just looked out the window: "There is no such thing." ”
"Then you turn your head and look me in the eye for 3 seconds." Gu Xiaofan was very skeptical.
Chen Ke'er originally wanted to turn around and confirm it, but when he thought about it, his heart would beat faster when he looked into his eyes, and sometimes he would be inexplicably angry, so he could only pretend not to care and said, "Boring ......"
Gu Xiaofan still wanted to ask, but Joseph in front of him started to introduce Gu Xiaofan to the internal affairs of Warner.
"Director Gu, before you meet Mr. Jett, I want to explain to you the composition of Time Warner's entire group and Mr. Jeter's status in Warner."
Gu Xiaofan nodded and said, "This is the best." To be honest, although his mind is full of ideas, he is too young after all, and his mind has been spent on his career as a director and actor in the past few years, and he only has a general understanding of the Warner he is eager to buy, but he is not too clear about the internal factions.
He only knew that Abel Warner belonged to one faction, and Hasen belonged to the other faction, and today he learned that Hubble belonged to Jett Warner's faction, and as for the comparison of the strength of the two factions, he didn't know very well.
This listened to Joseph explain: "In fact, although Warner has changed hands several times in the past few decades, in fact, the planning of the film and television industry is still controlled by Mr. Jett, he adheres to the old Warner family's principle - 'create beautiful works for people', so he is not very interested in commercial interests, and has filmed a series of "Bodyguard", "Unforgiven", "Fuse", "Black Horse", "Electronic Love Letter", "Time Travel", "The Matrix" ......"
Joseph's face was full of energy, and he almost kept saying a series of classic movies that were acclaimed more than 10 years ago, telling the golden age of Warner's 90s and the brilliance created by Jett Warner.
Although Gu Xiaofan has never seen this Jett Warner in his heart, when he heard the names of these movies, he couldn't help but be in awe of this old filmmaker...... Definitely the leader of that era.
This is also the insider that Gu Xiaofan needs to listen to, he thought that the CEO of large companies had the final say, but he didn't expect that the internal planning shareholders were the behind-the-scenes controllers who promoted Warner.
Just as Gu Xiaofan was listening to it, Joseph's voice suddenly became depressed:
"But since Abel's bastard took AOL and acquired Warner, all this has been different, and Abel, who is supported by Wall Street forces, has made Warner Pictures start to embark on a business model of big stars and standard production after taking charge of the group...... All artistic innovation was stopped......
Although Jett still supports high-quality films such as "Zombie Bride", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Blood Diamond", "Letter from Iwo Jima", etc., it is far from being able to compete with the "Harry Potter" series, Batman, and "Superman" series hosted by Abel in terms of revenue...... Abel's youngest son Allen got the copyright of "Harry Potter", which played a decisive role in the struggle between the two. ”
Although these few sentences are just stating the name of the movie, Gu Xiaofan already roughly knows the personnel of the two factions within Warner Pictures
