Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 1185 Big Mouth

Little Taylor's matter... just as Tang En expected.

Scott Swift didn't pay much attention.

He had already grown the belly of his twenty-year-old new lover. The two got married with a son and formed a new family. They were about to have a new child.

Little Taylor has grown up, and the custody belongs to the mother. It is really not bad for his father to interfere too much with their lifestyle.

Especially when Tang En was involved, it was even more inconvenient to talk.

Just open one eye and close one eye.

It's just that some relationships are somewhat awkward in handling.

He and Tang En are friends in private, and they are called brothers.

In the end, my daughter ran away with Tang En... What is this called!

Little Taylor has lacked the discipline of his strict father these years, and it is shameful to pamper and pamper you, and Scott Swift is helpless.

How about love!

Anyway, the child is grown up and has her own ideas, so let her choose to go.

Taking a 10,000-step back, being with Twain... except for having more women, there is really no disadvantage at all.

Now Scott Swift, the focus of work is still Disney!

This was the breakthrough Tang En had found to break through the Big Five alliance.

Scott Swift stated unmistakably: "I think Disney's stock price is undervalued, which is not in the interests of shareholders. So I have to enter the board of directors, join other directors, and split part of Disney's business. The main purpose is to spin off the ABC Group and some loss-making music, publishing and other businesses, which will help the interests of all shareholders."

Michael Eisner was extremely cautious and terrified.

He knew that the opponent's point of view was not groundless.

When the ABC Group was acquired that year, there was a lot of opposition within Disney.

Later, the acquisition was successful, but it was still full of doubts.

Especially old guys like Roy Disney and Stanley Gold have always held a negative attitude.

Roy Disney and Stanley Gold are the direct relatives of the founder of Disney, with great roots and great prestige.

Although their power on the board of directors has been removed by Michael Eisner, their influence on the shareholder meeting is still there.

If we unite with the largest shareholder of Xinke, maybe we can really kidnap the shareholders' meeting and regain the power of Disney!

Michael Eisner is very nervous!

He hardly slept all night.

But I couldn't think of a good solution.

The only solution is to persuade the other party as much as possible.

However, when they met the next day, they found that they couldn't convince each other at all.

What is especially frightening is that Scott Swift also made an unbelievable proposal-sell ABC Group to New Universal!

Isn't Disney's stock price falling now because "American Idol" is going to switch to CBS?

As long as ABC is sent to New Universal, all problems will be solved.

At the same time, Disney also got rid of a big burden, and the stock price is bound to rise.

Of course, Michael Eisner could not agree to this suggestion!

ABC Group includes not only ABC Station, but also ABC Family channels, including ESPN! These are very competitive, and as long as the general environment changes, they will become Disney's ace money-making machine.

Suddenly, Michael Eisner also discovered something, and couldn't help asking: "You...you said you have a solution to the problem of "American Idol"? I mean without selling ABC."

Scott Swift smiled and said frankly, "Of course, Tang En and I are friends."

Of course Michael Eisner knew that the other party knew Tang En, and even knew that the other party had a close relationship with Tang En.

But judging from his life experience, this kind of friendship...is not solid.

Scott Swift bought that stock from the Bass family for a full $2.7 billion. Such a big expense is because of friendship? Not necessarily.

"The current relationship between Disney and New Universal is on fire. It may not be easy to convince Twain." Michael Eisner muttered, "Speaking of which, Twain and I have a pretty good relationship."

Scott Swift almost laughed, and said without changing his face: "Then improve the relationship! I have heard about the so-called Big Five alliance, which is too ridiculous. I have known Tang En for many years, I know him, there's no way he's going to back down."

"This..." Michael Eisner narrowed his eyes, as if he understood something.

Scott Swift was also unambiguous, and said lightly: "If Disney wants to slow down the falling momentum of the stock price, it must ease the relationship with New Universal. The alliance of the five giants is a joke! This is not only what I mean, but also Mr. Disney meaning. I believe that this will also represent the will of the shareholders meeting!"

Michael Eisner understood, "Are you Dunn's lobbyist?"

Scott Swift: 'I'm Just Saving Disney!'

Michael Eisner was silent.

Scott Swift finally showed the fangs of the tiger, "If you can do it, then let you do it. If you can't, I don't mind pushing the shareholder meeting and completing a major change of Disney's management! Including you The chairman of the board!"

...

The media power controlled by the alliance of the five giants is very powerful. In addition to encircling and suppressing New Universal, they also carried out a large number of reports of personal attacks on Tang En himself, and the main direction was naturally women.

However, this kind of thing is not put on the table in the United States.

For example, there are several scandals rumored in the circle - Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's marriage is a deal, Keanu Reeves relies on sugar daddy to get rich, Kevin Spacey pursues My daughter's boyfriend...

This is a matter of personal privacy and has nothing to do with business.

American audiences will not worship celebrities as moral models, even if they worship them, they also worship their acting skills, rich money, and universal response.

No one would be fooled into thinking they were perfect saints.

Tang En has a lot of scandals and has affairs with many Hollywood female stars. This has been reported by various tabloids in the past many years, so it is not worth mentioning.

It is unrealistic to use this to complete the suppression of New Universal.

Commercial competition still relies on commercial means to be more reliable.

However, there was one scandal that Twain had to come forward to clarify.

The well-known actor Ben Affleck has acted in 5 movies this year, and all of them are leading actors.

In a certain talk show, he didn't know whether he drank too much or his head was flooded, or he was so proud of his career that he got carried away. It doesn't matter how many times the filmmakers do it!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was really frightened.

PR firms and production companies rushed to the front.

The unspoken rules in Hollywood are more between men and women, and between men and men are more popular on Broadway.

Hollywood is not like Broadway.

Hollywood is oriented to the global market, which requires that the values ​​promoted by Hollywood must conform to the appetite of the public all over the world, and there should be no too much conflict in religion, belief, morality and personal beliefs.

Therefore, comrades in Hollywood can only play some underground love affairs, and they cannot be open like Broadway or the modeling circle. According to statistics, the box office of movies shot by all "coming out" actors will generally drop by about 40%, even Oscar-winning actress Jodie Foster is no exception.

Even the big guy like Barry Diller has to do it secretly.

So, Ben Affleck's big mouth has offended a lot of people.

It is conceivable that in the next two or three years, it is impossible for him to receive a large number of film contracts.

Even Twain was implicated, and issued a statement through the public relations company, saying that his relationship with Ben Affleck was very ordinary and there was no friendship.

...

"I read the news that you were having an affair with Affleck, is it true?" Scarlett seemed to have seen an alien, her eyes were like bells, and she looked at Tang En in shock.

Tang En was angry and funny, "Where did you get the news? It's a mess!"

Scarlett said, "It's America Online!"

"America Online? That website that started out relying on adult information, what credibility does it have? It's reasonable to be abandoned by netizens." Tang En said angrily.

America Online was so popular back then, and its market value was so high, because the early users of the Internet... were mostly attracted by free adult movies. America Online focuses on this business and has achieved rapid development.

After the merger of America Online and Time Warner, how can it be so easy to clean up?

It will definitely be replaced by healthy and progressive websites such as Yahoo, Google, and MSN.

Scarlett stared closely at Tang En, "But what was said in the news is so vivid, it doesn't look like it's fake. When filming "Star Wars Episode 1: The Menace of the Phantom Man", Director Lucas wanted Ivan McGregor was the protagonist. But you disagreed, and strongly recommended Ben Affleck. Director Lucas also said, this is true, you chose him!"

Tang En's expression was a little helpless, "Okay, the suspicion is serious now! Even you are suspicious of me, and you don't know how to bury me outside, maybe everyone will say that I am a man and woman."

At this time, Natalie and Blake Lively came back from their walk, and they couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

Tang En seemed to have seen a savior, and hurriedly said, "Nat, you have to testify to me!"

Natalie pursed her lips, then smiled lightly at Scarlett, "Don't worry, I'm a witness, and the rumors are all false. When I was filming Star Wars... this guy pestered me all day long except for filming." , He didn’t even look straight at that guy Affleck. Besides, look at his madness towards women, how can he have the energy to like men?”

"God, someone finally testified for me!"

Tang En's eyes were full of tears, this kind of injustice was really troublesome.

Natalie, Scarlett and Blake Lively laughed and laughed together.

Tang En did not participate in their slapstick, which was really disgraceful to him.

There was an affair with Ben Affleck, and I laughed out loud!

Tang En went to the study, intending to have another phone conversation with Scott Swift, but Blake Lively knocked on the door and came cautiously.

"Come on!" Tang En smiled and waved to her, "Don't be too outsider."

Blake was a little shy and blushed.

Tang En noticed something, "Is there something wrong?"

"Hmm... a little... I want to ask you what you mean..." Black looked embarrassed, looking a little embarrassed.

"Oh, tell me."

"Now that I'm rich, I think... I want to buy my sister a house. I know it's wrong, but my eldest sister has been nice to me since I was a child, better than my stepmother, who I have been following since I was a child." She grew up around..."

Black spoke very fast, for fear that this excessive request would offend Dunn.

Tang En hooked her up, asked her to sit down beside him, and said with a smile: "It should be, after growing up and making money, it's human nature and a good thing to take care of your relatives."

Blake breathed a sigh of relief, showing a sweet smile, "Yeah, that would be great!"

"Do you have money?"

"Don't worry, it will be enough when I save for two months."

"Saving money?" Tang En suddenly laughed, "That's so troublesome, just go and see the house, and buy it when you see it. For a new house, of course, the sooner you move in, the better."

He had forgotten the feeling of saving money.

I have always done what I want, and I don't worry about money at all.

Blake tentatively said, "Then...then I'll tell Natalie and ask her to pay me two months' salary in advance...salary?"

Tang En was startled: "What salary?"

"500,000 dollars." Black replied rather shyly.

"Oh! This!" Tang En slapped his forehead, unable to laugh or cry, "What kind of salary is this? This is pocket money for you. Women outside, that's called salary."

"Pocket money?"

Blake's face flushed, feeling very happy.

Tang En said: "You gave your pocket money to buy a house for your sister, so what do you use it for?"

Blake said embarrassingly: "The sisters in my family take good care of me. If there is anything I need, they will buy it for me, especially Scarlett. She is very generous and rushes to buy it every time."

Tang En shook his head and said, "You can't always ask others to buy it for you. You also have to buy them some gifts frequently, so as to enhance the relationship between sisters, understand?"

Black nodded solemnly, "Well, I see, I will definitely get along with them in the future, I like being with them."

"Hmm." Dunn is still very satisfied with her performance, especially since she walks with Natalie, a pregnant woman, every day. She has a very correct attitude, so she got up and went to the desk, took out the checkbook, and then swiped. I wrote a few pens and handed them over, "You take this and go buy a house for your sister. You spend your pocket money yourself."

Blake saw the amount on this check, a full $3 million!

Immediately, I felt that even my breathing was stagnant.

"No no no, this is too much!"

Black hurriedly postponed, really frightened.

She and her eldest sister looked at the house for two days, and what they wanted to buy was a villa worth 800,000 US dollars.

Fortunately, Tang En wrote a check for 3 million US dollars directly!

This is to buy a mansion!

Tang En waved his hand, "Take what is given to you. You have performed well during this period, so I will treat it as a reward for you. Don't be proud. You must work harder in the future, especially with these sisters in our family. We must handle the relationship well. Don't make a difference."

"Well! I see!"

Blake stretched out his hand tremblingly to receive the check, his face was bright red, not to mention how sweet his heart was.

After leaving the study, she quickly ran back to her bedroom, and then impatiently called her elder sister. Her tone was as proud as it was, as proud as it was!

"Sister, my husband said that if you want to buy a luxury house, you can buy a luxury house. He gave me 3 million US dollars and asked us to buy a house...Of course, I said it all, my husband is very good, and he is very emotional... Hee hee, then Of course, he loves me, he gave it to me on his own initiative... Well, that's it, see you tomorrow... Haha, it's okay... Living in such a family, of course I am happy!"
