Heads Up Hollywood

On the private plane, Natalie half-lyed and half leaned in Tang En's arms, and whispered in his ear: "I feel...you seem to have restrained yourself a lot recently."

"Convergence? What?"

"Woman."

Tang En couldn't help laughing, coughed lightly, and said in a low voice: "Well... Actually, Nicole and I have been living together on the set."

"She's an old lover, doesn't count."

Natalie rolled her eyes and said furtively: "I have observed that there are many beautiful girls in the crew of "A Beautiful Mind". Based on what I know about you, if you used to film the scene for half a month, no I know how many girls I will spoil."

"How could it be that exaggerated?" Tang En glared at her.

There is no shortage of beautiful girls in any crew, especially for movies like "A Beautiful Mind" that involve college campuses. But most of them are group performers and peripherals waiting for opportunities. There is only one actress who is really well-known, Nicole Kidman.

There are too many goblins in Hollywood, no matter how energetic Tang En is, it's impossible for Tang En to go with each other one by one... one by one, he must choose the best.

Especially some low-level and peripheral actresses, in order to get ahead, resort to endless means, even regardless of the consequences and at any cost.

If you sleep with the wrong person and suffer a bad influence, the loss outweighs the gain.

In comparison, in this regard, the more famous an actor is, the more reliable he is.

"You know, I'm having a big fight with Disney right now, try not to let them take advantage of it. Maybe among those beautiful girls in the crew, there are Disney's hidden nails?" Tang En shook his head, this is by no means alarmist.

Natalie pursed her lips and looked at him jokingly, "I thought you were the demon king of the world, so you know how to be afraid?"

Tang En said angrily: "My strong personality doesn't mean I'm stupid!"

Natalie covered her mouth and giggled non-stop.

At this moment, Tang En's cell phone rang, and when he looked down, it was Reese Witherspoon.

"Reese, what's wrong?"

"It's true that I...well, you know, a large part of my alumni circle is entrepreneurial, especially in Silicon Valley, where there are a lot of people."

Reese Witherspoon's tone was embarrassing. During this time, there have been six or seven Stanford alumni who entrusted their relationship to her. Most of them were high-tech companies that couldn't survive the technology stock market crash and hoped to obtain financing from Tang En.

Tang En's money did not come from strong winds. The reason why he dared to invest in Wall Street and Silicon Valley was because of his foresight.

For some companies he has never heard of, it doesn't matter whether you are from Stanford or not!

Tang En said lightly: "Ruixi, you can delay this kind of thing in the future if you can. The collapse of high-tech companies collectively is a trend and the general trend. As a layman, I don't have the ability to turn the tide."

"I know, but the other party's attitude is very sincere, and... is a much older senior, I really can't postpone it." Reese Witherspoon said embarrassingly.

"Okay, tell me, what kind of company is that?" Tang En has already rejected many financing applications in a row, not many more.

"It's an online rental company about videotapes..."

"Don't be so troublesome!" Tang En immediately interrupted her and was talking on the plane. Due to technical reasons, the signal was not bad. He simply said, "Just tell me the name of that company."

"Netflix."

"What?"

"Netflix!"

Tang En, who was snuggled up with Natalie, sat up straight at once, his face glowed with excitement, and his face was flushed, "You mean... this company is Netflix, which operates online video rentals. ?”

"That's right. Huh? You've heard of it?"

Tang En almost burst into laughter.

Not only have you heard of it?

It's like thunder!

The current Tang En is a bit singled out for Hollywood. He has the "sunglass system" and foresight. It can be said that he has assembled the luck of the entire Hollywood.

Even so, his survival in Hollywood was very difficult, and Disney alone almost wiped him out.

However, Netflix... is a real world company that competes against the entire Hollywood by itself!

With the rise of the Internet, the traditional model of Hollywood is gradually being submerged by the stage of history. Movies and TV are no longer the exclusive platforms of Hollywood.

In particular, the rise of streaming media has brought about earth-shaking changes in the landscape of Hollywood. Even giant groups such as 20th Century Fox and Time Warner are forced to choose to sell due to the advent of the Internet age and the competitive pressure of streaming media.

And the leader of streaming media is Netflix!

It will take ten years for Netflix to truly launch the streaming business.

In fact, Hollywood has long seen the impact of the advent of the Internet era on traditional fields, so in 2007, 20th Century Fox, Disney, Universal and other companies established the streaming media website Hulu.

Backed by several giants, Hulu has an unrivaled film source advantage of other companies.

However, with the rise of Netflix, they have developed the three major businesses of "on-demand, online payment, and online rental" for movies for many years. Once they transform into streaming media, the huge number of users and service experience will immediately give Netflix brought about a qualitative leap.

Even though Netflix was restricted by Hollywood's copyright, Netflix quickly found a new way out. The emergence of self-made online dramas directly made Netflix flourish.

In particular, "House of Cards" made Netflix's name spread to every corner of the world, and the company's market value soared to 70 billion U.S. dollars!

The combined market value of all the streaming media companies in the world is not as good as Netflix!

Later, Netflix even made movies ambitiously. Although it was still under the check and balance of Hollywood, the review by the American Film Association would definitely have twists and turns.

But Netflix doesn't care at all. Netflix's self-produced movies are not shown in movie theaters at all, but are placed directly on the Internet and pushed to subscribers in the form of streaming media.

This move directly allowed Netflix to take off for the second time, and the company's market value exceeded 120 billion U.S. dollars!

You know, the Time Warner Group was packaged and sold at a price of only US$85 billion; most of the assets of Twentieth Century Fox were split and sold at a price of only US$52 billion.

Such a great company was forced to ask Reese Witherspoon to be on the head of Reese Witherspoon during the technology stock market crash, just to be able to catch Dunn's line and obtain financial support.

Speaking of it, it is both ridiculous and ironic.

"Reese, tell your senior, just say that I appreciate Netflix's online and offline O2O model, let him tomorrow... the morning of the day after tomorrow, I will meet him in the office!"

Tang En endured the excitement and excitement in his heart, and seemed to have seen a building in the future.

Netflix is ​​his last position!

Tang En, who has made his way in Hollywood, does have golden fingers, but it doesn't mean that he can do whatever he wants and be invincible. Facing the pressure of Disney, he will often be unable to do what he wants.

If... there really was a day when Twain aroused public outrage and was sanctioned by the entire Hollywood; or Disney offered a generous reward and persuaded several other giants to join forces to besiege Twain Films.

Then even if Tang En has a golden finger, it's nonsense, don't even think about escaping such a collective siege.

During this period of time, this was the biggest burden on Tang En's heart.

However, the appearance of Netflix gave him hope!

Netflix is ​​his last position!

Even if Twain Pictures really can't survive in Hollywood, Twain will be kicked out of Hollywood, it doesn't matter, he still owns Netflix.

At that time, Tang En will still be able to exert earth-shattering power in the fields of movies and TV by relying on the shell of Netflix and the Internet platform.

Even... At that time, he no longer needed to restrain himself, he didn't need to worry about any Hollywood rules, and he could do something drastic!

The power of Hollywood is indeed great, but Netflix is ​​not afraid!

Of course, this was only the last choice, and Tang En couldn't break up with Hollywood unless he had to.

Tang En let out a long breath of relief, stretched his waist, and smiled knowingly.

Good luck. At this time, Netflix took the initiative to deliver it to the door. This is definitely a dragon egg with hidden light.

Once mature, baby dragons hatch.

At that time, it was the flying dragon in the sky!

Originally, the "Assorted Platter Investment Plan" was Tang En's last trump card and the lifeline of Tang En's film industry.

But now Tang En has more confidence. Compared to platter investment, Netflix is ​​the biggest hole card!
