readx;?“ Pixar Studios invested in Time Warner, and in less than three years, three animated feature films were released. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo//”

In an office building on Wiesch Street, Michael? Ovitz looked at a newspaper in his hand and said, "Walt Disney management will definitely have a lot on their minds." ”

"If it's just Ratatouille and Wall-E."

The perimeter of these two films is a hard wound, so Martin? Bob said, "Animated films like 'Cars' are sure to make Disney jealous, and if the film is owned by Disney, it may be able to use Disney's youth platform to sell even more terrifying merchandise sales figures." ”

Michael? Ovitz sighed, "It's scary now, and there's never been an animated movie that has been as hot as 'Cars,' and 'The Lion King' didn't do it back then." ”

Martin? Bob and Michael? Ovitz talked about Pixar Studios, loosening his nerves a little bit, and the conversation turned back to his own company.

"AA, IM and William Morris are clearly united." Martin? Bob didn't have any relief on his face, "Our first-level customers have lost more than 50 percent, and although there are fewer second-level customers leaving, the few with potential are basically targeted." ”

He looked at Ovitz, "Michael, what the hell are you thinking?" ”

"These three companies have reached a tacit understanding." Michael? Ovitz rubbed his eyebrows and said slowly, "There should be someone pushing behind, this is not a conspiracy." It's about dealing with us openly, what else can we do but fight? ”

Do you want to go to the killer and kill all the three major brokerage companies and the hand behind the scenes?

"What if we lose?" Martin? Bob asked worriedly.

Michael? Ovitz shook his head, "Even if you lose, it's not the end. We retired early and just got out of the circle. ”

As long as he retires early, all the grievances around him will inevitably dissipate immediately.

His dispute with the three major brokerage companies and the other person stemmed from business, but when he had no commercial value of his own, he let them do it. Those people may not pay attention to it.

After so many years of fighting in Hollywood, coupled with the fiasco of Disney's tenure, Michael? Ovitz knew he was nowhere near as powerful and important as he had originally thought.

Now that I think about it, the media and the editors who touted him at the beginning hurt him to a certain extent.

Those people say he's the king of Hollywood. The masters of stars and directors are the real controllers behind the scenes of Hollywood, and he himself takes it for granted.

It is extremely dangerous for a person to not be able to see clearly the environment and position he is in, and to get carried away......

Although he didn't care too much about these remarks, it affected his judgment to some extent, and he wanted to leave AA to develop on a higher platform, but because of his lack of ability, he lost in Disney's complicated personnel struggle. Eventually, it fell to the point where it is today.

Is it not so much that he lost to Duke? Rosenberg, it's better to say that he lost to himself.

What a Hollywood emperor, what a star master. What's really behind the scenes......

To this day, Michael? Ovitz has seen clearly, what is all this in front of the film companies that have joined the big media conglomerates? It's just a joke.

If there's one chance to do it all over again, he'll be like Duke? Rosenberg, like that, always kept a clear head. Don't take yourself too seriously, and go on step by step......

Pity. At his age, there was no chance of starting all over again.

Michael? Ovitz sighed heavily. If there is no miracle or event that can be reversed, the fate of the artist's management company is basically impossible to change, although he can bow his head and admit defeat and quit the circle when necessary, but there is one thing he has never figured out.

Duke? Why is Rosenberg so strong and calm?

The other party has not encountered a crisis, and can maintain a calm mind every time, even if the response speed is sometimes not fast enough, but it is definitely stable enough, such as a fire on the set, Mel? The Gibson incident and so on, can resist the pressure of the mountain with a strong mind, put forward corresponding countermeasures with a cool head, and skillfully turn disadvantages into advantages with the assistance of a whole team.

That's not at all like what a young person should be.

When it comes to being strong, calm, or even cold, Duke? Rosenberg had already surpassed him years ago.

Michael? Ovitz is very sure of this.

However, it is not so simple to make him completely admit defeat and quit Hollywood.

Although there is an idea of retirement, Michael? Ovitz won't quit just then, anyway, he won't be in this circle for too long, and he can use the resources in his hands to choose the right time to ask Duke? Rosenberg launched his final and most powerful attack.

To achieve this, you need to endure and wait, Michael? Ovitz is not short of patience right now.

After paying a little attention to "Wall-E", Duke looked at the market and focused more on "The Dark Knight", which is approaching Christmas, and the film is still being screened in North America, but the number of theaters has been reduced to 200, and the box office growth rate is not much faster than that of a snail.

In recent months, the North American box office of "The Dark Knight" has risen by just over $12 million, and the North American box office has reached a total of $579.96 million, which is almost impossible.

Overseas, the film has long been offline from most countries and regions, and although there are still some markets showing it, the overseas box office figure of $575.77 million has basically no room to rise.

The screening of this film has come to an end.

At present, Warner Bros. is suppressing the disc, just waiting for the Oscar nominees to come out, releasing different versions of the DVD disc while it is hot, and then making a big profit in the global market.

Duke has no objection to this, and his share contract includes all merchandise revenue.

Although he is now rich, most of Duke's assets come from the stock market and some real estate, and the amount of liquidity is not much.

Just like those professional film critics criticized, Duke is a very ordinary person, and his taste is not very elegant, so naturally it is impossible to avoid vulgarity.

Even if he doesn't use these shares, he can donate them to his charitable foundation and earn some good reputation.

Like all tycoons, Duke is involved in charity, even if he is not very philanthropic, and he has a charitable foundation with transparent accounts to his name, and he donates money and materials every year, and even advocates for the world's attention to Africa's hungry children, for which he has thrown millions of dollars.

"The situation in Africa is worse than imagined."

A spacious RV slowly drove into the airport's private tarmac, Tina? Fei looked at the private jet that was still taxiing in the distance, and said, "Scarlett sent me a few photos of her, which are shocking. ”

"Scarlett looks like there's another event." Duke looked at the plane, estimated that there were still a few minutes to arrive, and did not rush to get out of the car, right? Fei said, "Next year in collaboration with Marvel Comics, you can go together." ”

"Together?" Tina? Fei didn't show any interest, "Forget it, I think North America is not bad, I don't want to go to a place like Africa." ”

In front of Duke, she didn't need to hide her true thoughts.

Duke pushed the car door open, walked down, stood in front of the car, looked at the planes getting closer and closer, and said to Tina? Fei added, "I'm going to put you in charge of the foundation that will be set up to save hungry children." ”

"It's okay to manage." Tina? Fei blinked and said deliberately, "But management doesn't need to go to those places in Africa in person, right?" ”

It's one thing to be sympathetic, it's another thing to go to that kind of place in person.

A huge Boeing airliner slowly taxied over, the Boeing BBJ that Duke had ordered from Boeing, and its first flight after delivery was Scarlett's African Charity Ambassador's Trip.

Such an event is quite helpful for Scarlett's career.

And when I went, I was accompanied by a number of senior officials from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and UNICEF, and the destination was not those chaotic countries and regions, otherwise Duke would not have agreed so happily.

The plane door opens, Scarlett? Johnson walked out first, and she immediately saw Duke, and couldn't help but speed up her pace, quickly walked down the spiral ladder, and rushed over.

Seeing Scarlett, who was almost trotting, Duke opened his arms and hugged her tightly.

"Hey, dear."

Tina on the other side? Faye winked at Scarlett, "You look a little dark." ”

"Really?" Scarlett immediately became nervous, "I think so, too, but Sophia said I didn't get dark, so I didn't care. ”

Duke realized that there was one less person off the plane and asked Scarlett, "What about Sophia?" Didn't she go with her? ”

"Sophia has gone to South Africa." Scarlett explained simply, "She went to Johannesburg to meet Charlize? Theron wanted to ask her to collaborate on a film about South Africa. ”

"They want to cooperate?"

Frowning slightly, Duke thought back, no Sophia? Coppola and Charlize? Memories of Theron's collaboration, but he didn't like Sophia's production style very much, or he probably hadn't seen it.

"Get in the car." Duke pulled the car door for Scarlett, "Let's go home first." ”

"Linda, watch your luggage."

Scarlett turned her head, gave a word to her assistant, bent down to get into the car, and waited for Duke to sit next to her, then said, "Are you really planning to throw a Christmas charity party?" ”

"Aren't you a charity ambassador?" Duke gestured to the driver and said, "Since we have just come back from Africa, we will definitely feel something, and we should do something about it." (To be continued)
