Heads Up Hollywood

Chapter 429 Two-faced faction

In fact, Michael Eisner has long been mentally prepared.

Roy Disney has not reached an agreement with Tang En for a long time, it must be that this kid's demands are too much.

But when he heard Tang En's words, he was still shocked and speechless!

It turned out that I fell in love with those old cartoons!

Such a "rude" request, it's no wonder that Roy Disney could agree!

Most of those cartoons are the lifelong hard work of the founders, the Disney brothers. They are the real inheritance of the Disney family and the assets left by Roy Disney's parents. He attaches more importance to these cartoons than his life!

Tang En's appetite is too big!

"It's impossible for Disney to fund competitors!" Michael Eisner immediately vetoed.

"No, you misunderstood." Tang En shook his head frequently, "I don't want to remake those cartoons, what I want is the right to adapt live-action movies."

Michael Eisner said: "This is also very difficult. Conservative forces do not allow this asset to be moved."

Tang En's eyes lit up.

Although Michael Eisner did not agree, his statement...has room for maneuver!

This is very different from Roy Disney's categorical refusal without hesitation.

"Negotiations. Sometimes, if everyone takes a step back, we can achieve a win-win result for both parties." Tang En said with a hypocritical smile.

The two walked slowly in Disneyland, followed by entourage in the distance, and there were very few tourists. I heard that Michael Eisner was very courageous after the park was closed for two hours.

"You know, I'm a feminist. The new right, the neoconservatives, the new religious right have been brutal in suppressing feminism over the past few decades. They influenced Congress, not only blocked the Equal Rights Amendment It also opposes abortion, homosexuality, and equality of sexual rights. These acts of persecution against women are no less than racial discrimination back then."

Tang En spoke with eloquence, as if he was a sympathetic saint, "It is already the 21st century, and what prevails in this world is science and law, not the teachings of thousands of years ago. The Bible says that women are men There is also a clear record in "Genesis", what God said to Eve-"Your desires are subordinate to your husband's desires, and he will have full power over you.' Oh! How ridiculous!"

Michael Eisner looked deeply at Tang En. To be honest, it was difficult for him to distinguish between the Tang En in front of him and the Tang En in the rumors, which one was real.

Isn't he a master of unspoken rules who is nostalgic for flowers? Do you really want to promote feminism?

Many times, Michael Eisner can also understand Tang En's thoughts. Many arguments of the conservatives are really outdated. They think that the differences between men and women, the biological differences are just appearances, and God's law is the root.

This is the oppression of women in the name of God!

"So... you've just fallen in love with Disney's cartoons featuring women?"

"Of course!" Tang En put his hands behind his back and looked at the little Taylor who was happily playing in the distance, his face was full of confidence, "In my opinion, Disney cartoons are a treasure trove to promote feminism. Open the treasure trove The key is in my hand."

Michael Eisner was silent for a while, then nodded and said: "I will go back to the board of directors to discuss the feasibility of this matter."

No matter what, Tang En's style is still very high, politically correct! Very much in line with Disney's values!

In many cases, this kind of illusory high-level reason is the best way to fool the board of directors.

Tang En smiled, "Roy has a lot of influence, right?"

"He still can't represent Disney!"

With the release of "Monsters, Inc.", Michael Eisner is now confident that Pixar's business can be attributed to Disney, which is his credit.

In contrast, the poor performance of the Disney Animation Department led by Roy Disney is appalling!

But Tang En's next words poured cold water on him, "I'm still the majority shareholder of Pixar! Oh yes, except for Jobs."

"What do you mean?"

Michael Eisner's face tightened.

Tang En pretended to be dazed, with an innocent look on his face, "What's wrong? Did I say the wrong thing?"

Michael Eisner snorted heavily, "Jobs is not a good man!"

The conflict between him and Jobs has been deep, and it has not been a day or two.

...

"Twain, what do you mean?"

On the phone, Roy Disney roared hysterically.

Tang En shared his hands with the beauty in front of him, and then said helplessly, "Mr. Disney, I don't understand what you mean."

"Are you still pretending? Eisner is studying the right to adapt the cartoon!" Roy Disney was obviously very angry, and his voice was trembling.

Tang En rolled his eyes and said lightly: "Mr. Disney, I don't understand this. We discussed this matter in the summer, right? You haven't given me an explanation for so long. I will cooperate with someone else. Question? Could it be that looking at the entire Disney, I can only choose you as my partner?"

"You!" Roy Disney was usually reticent and inarticulate, and he was really irritated by Tang En. "Don't forget, your company was almost bankrupted by Eisner!"

Tang En said: "So what? Shopping malls, it's normal to separate and combine. There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Besides, isn't the cooperation between Tang En Pictures and Disney a win-win situation?"

Win-win?

Win-win shit!

If it was really a win-win situation, Roy Disney would have agreed to his cooperation a long time ago. This kid is a lion, and he wants to take advantage of Disney's civil strife and equity disputes to buy bottom from Disney.

Roy Disney gritted his teeth and said, "Twain, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Let me tell you, it's impossible! As long as I'm here, you won't be able to touch any of Disney's cartoons!"

Tang En was quite helpless, "Mr. Disney, you are a senior in the industry, and I respect you very much, but you can't mess around? I don't steal, and I don't steal. Is it wrong that you are not willing to cooperate? I found Mr. Eisner, which is normal."

"You don't have to show off your rhetoric. We know each other what you think. We just want to use Disney's brand for personal gain. I will never allow this to happen!" Roy Disney asserted.

Tang En said indifferently: "Since you have such a deep misunderstanding of me, we have nothing to talk about. I want to use Disney's cartoons to promote women's rights. What a great and exciting mission is this? Otherwise, how can Mr. Eisner May agree?"

"That's because he wants to control Disney's power! You want to use Disney to make money! This is your secret struggle!" Roy Disney questioned in a hysterical almost crazy voice.

Tang En's reaction was very flat, "This is your personal opinion, and it has nothing to do with me! Mr. Eisner and I have the world in mind, and it is your structure that limits your vision. Sorry, I still have friends, goodbye!"

The flip phone closed and was thrown directly on the desk.

The corners of Tang En's mouth raised slightly, and he curled his lips in disdain.

A Kirk Douglas, a Roy Disney, at such an old age, not caring for his life, and participating in this kind of thing, he is not afraid of being tired!

At this time, the urban beauty sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed, her high-heeled leather boots swaying gently, her eyes were teasing and provocative, "Tang En, you are really shameless!"

Tang En blushed, "Sophia, is there someone who satirizes your friends like this? Don't forget, I just did you a big favor!"

Sofia Coppola snorted softly, "What help? Do you know that Rose Films has scheduled the shooting of "Lost in Translation" to July next year!"

Tang En explained: "Rose Films has a relatively heavy workload, and Katherine Kennedy is responsible for everything. It is really too busy. You will be filming "Gone Girl" at the beginning of the year, and your movie will definitely be postponed."

Sofia Coppola and Twain have a very good relationship. They often send emails to each other to tease each other, even when they meet each other, she said mockingly: "Yes, "Gone Girl" is an adaptation of the book of your big boss. , How can my movie compare with your project?"

Tang En said angrily: "Sophia, you are the director now, are you also so harsh in the crew?"

"Don't talk nonsense, everyone respects me!"

"By the way, has the lead actor of "Lost in Translation" been chosen yet?"

Tang En suddenly thought of something and was very interested in this question. The original version of "Lost in Translation" starred a world-renowned goddess...
