Heads Up Hollywood

Les Moonves is still sticking to his point of view. He has never used his power to harass female employees, let alone sexual assault.

However, the news of his resignation spread like wildfire.

He resigned with him, and another well-known cbs reporter Charlie Rose who was deeply involved in the sexual assault scandal.

Viacom's stock price shows no signs of recovering.

Strangely, with the departure of the two, the originally vigorous sexual assault scandal seems to have calmed down a lot.

Viacom no longer expressed its position, trying to avoid media reports.

Hollywood did not continue to express its position.

The news broke out suddenly and then stopped abruptly!

Quite a bit baffling.

In December, the winter is bitter.

Tang En was in a good mood after getting Lei Shidong done.

Blockbuster is not worth mentioning, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is sweeping the movie box office market, "The Walking Dead" has become the veritable No. 1 series in the United States after the last "Friends" aired, and its popularity has soared Go up again.

Everything is running smoothly.

In 2003, it looked like it was coming to a close.

Tang En made an appointment with a few beauties, took his huge private yacht, traveled all the way south, and came to the Caribbean for vacation.

The pink sand beach on Harbor Island is known as the sexiest beach in the world.

Clear water and fine sand, blue sea and blue sky.

Miranda Kerr, Meghan Gale, Anne Hathaway, Monica Cruz, plus Twain, a group of five walked on the long pink beach with soft sand under their feet , like a massage.

"When we were filming "Pirate Alliance", we came here to shoot scenes." Anne Hathaway held Tang En's arm affectionately, and her white and tender feet playfully kicked up a handful of powder sand from time to time, she seemed to be in a good mood .

Tang En nodded, and said: "I watched the first cut of "Pirate Alliance 2: Dead Man's Chest". Your performance is very good. This movie... may hit the annual box office champion next year."

"No way? I read from the media that... next year's box office champion, "Spider-Man 3" has already been booked." Anne Hathaway was quite surprised.

The global box office of "Pirate League 1" is only 760 million US dollars.

But what about the "Spider-Man" series? All over $1 billion!

Tang En smiled, "One is for the summer vacation and the other is for the Christmas season. Let's compete with each other. These two films have the potential to exceed 1 billion at the box office."

Anne Hathaway blinked her big eyes, pursed her lips and said, "Gore Verbinski is a rookie director. If his first movie... has a box office of more than 1 billion US dollars, it won't be the next Twain." Walker?"

Tang En laughed out loud.

Miranda Kerr quickly took a few steps forward from behind. She is not a member of the industry, and she doesn't quite understand many things. She asked curiously: "The director of "Pirate League" has changed? I think the director Tim Burton is very good Ah, I like his style."

Tang En nodded and said: "Yes, it is precisely because he laid a good foundation in the first film that there is a chance for Gore Verbinski to take over and create magic in the second film."

"Then...will Director Verbinski soar into the sky?"

Anne Hathaway was a little flustered and a little scared.

When filming "Pirate League 2", because Gore Verbinski was a new director, Anne Hathaway, as a quasi-first-line female star in Hollywood, made trouble for this new director.

Tang En stretched out his hand, put his arm around her shoulder, and said with a smile, "You are my friend, what are you afraid of? Besides, the success of "Pirate Alliance 2" is due to the appeal of the entire series, not his Director ability. I hired three directors from the commercial world, Zack Snyder, Francis Lawrence and Gore Verbinski. Not all of them have the potential to become great directors.”

Anne Hathaway thought for a moment, then said softly, "Director Schneider can definitely do it!"

Tang En couldn't help laughing.

This Anne Hathaway, after some adjustments, her emotional intelligence has improved, and she knows how to flatter her.

Zack Snyder took over the big project "Ghost Rider". Who in the industry doesn't know that Tang En values ​​and cultivates him?

fair enough.

As a star, it's only good to have a complicated mind.

So as not to be deceived.

...

Tang En took a few girls to play among the many islands in the Caribbean Sea, sunbathe, and tour the Caribbean Sea, which can be regarded as a rare pastime and relaxation in this winter.

On the fourth day of vacation, Tang En received a call.

From the producer of the "Harry Potter" series - David Heyman.

"What? Are you going to have a "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" celebration reception?" Tang En's attitude towards capable people has always been gentle.

David Heyman said with a smile: "The North American box office of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" has already reached 220 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office has exceeded 600 million U.S. dollars. It is estimated... the final box office of this film will not be less than 900 million U.S. dollars Dollar."

"Good thing!"

"But... I want to say something else."

Tang En could hear the hesitation in the other party's tone, and said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly. Could it be that there is trouble in the later stages of "Harry Potter 3"?"

"No, no, there won't be any trouble with the "Harry Potter" series. I'm talking about the "Narnia Chronicles" series." David Heyman said hesitantly.

"The Chronicles of Narnia?"

Tang En frowned.

David Heyman said: ""The Chronicles of Narnia 2" has been released for the 8th day, the North American box office is only 87 million US dollars, and the global box office is only 170 million US dollars. Compared with the production cost of 225 million US dollars and 90 million Dollars of publicity, box office receipts like this... can only be described as a fiasco."

Tang En had known for a long time that this project would end in a disastrous failure.

Otherwise, how could he have transferred half of the rights to such a popular series to Warner and half to Disney?

He is not stupid!

Donate to the foundation, but also in exchange for a good reputation;

Donating money to Schwarzenegger can obtain official protection;

What are the benefits of sending high-quality projects to other companies, other than funding competitors?

"Oh." Tang En's reaction was very cold, "If you fail miserably, you will fail miserably. This project has nothing to do with New Universal, right?"

David Heyman said anxiously: "I know you have already transferred the copyright. But...my good friend is still the producer of this project."

Tang En suddenly remembered, "It's... Lionel Wigram?"

David Heyman said in surprise: "Yes, it's him! I didn't expect that you still remember him."

At the beginning, the producers of "The Chronicles of Narnia 1" were mainly two, one was David Heyman, and the other was Lionel Wigram.

If it was an ordinary character, Tang En would not remember it. His heart beat and he asked, "Is he in trouble?"

David Heyman said bitterly: "How can there be no trouble after screwing up such a big project? In the "The Chronicles of Narnia 2" project, Warner and Disney each hold 50% of the shares. Because Lionel is The first producer, and it was a big success, so Disney also made a concession and let him be the first producer."

Tang En understood it as soon as he heard it.

A $225 million project!

This is probably the movie with the highest investment in the history of Hollywood in the past 100 years!

He screwed up such a big project, how can he explain it?

Even if he has worked at Warner for more than ten years, there is still Disney in this project.

Warner also wants to give Disney an explanation.

"Do you need my help?"

"Ah... this..."

Tang En smiled, "David, don't be polite to me, right? Isn't that why you called me this time?"

David Heyman said embarrassingly: "Lionel's life at Warner is very difficult. Even if he is not fired, he has lost the possibility of taking over big projects. Unless he changes jobs, his career will be broken."

Tang En said proudly: "When we cooperated in "The Chronicles of Narnia 1", we were very happy, and I have never forgotten it. You can tell him that if he wants, he can come to work in New Universal! Warner is afraid, Disney I’m afraid, but I’m not afraid! With New Universal, he can continue to be in charge of big projects!”

"real?"

David Heyman was pleasantly surprised.

Tang En said lightly: "I am a person who values ​​loyalty the most, don't you know? Besides, having him come to New Universal can just reorganize your golden partners and make the "Harry Potter" series Finish."

David Heyman and Lionel Wigram grew up together and had a close relationship.

This is only second.

Tang En valued another identity of Lionel Wigram, he was a cartoonist!

He has a very famous set of live-action comics - "The Great Detective Sherlock Holmes" series.

Just poach him from Warner.

By the way, his comics... didn't they also enter the vision of New Universal?

This is a great thing that kills two birds with one stone!

Of course, David Heyman was also very excited and said excitedly: "Okay, I'll call him right away! He is definitely willing to work in New Universal!"

Obviously just messed up a big project, and as a result, his career took a new turn.

No fool would refuse such a good thing, right?

After hanging up the phone, Tang En pondered for a long time.

"The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian" is still a box office failure like its previous life.

Even if the director is Ann Lee, it hasn't changed the huge flaw in the setting of the whole story.

In the previous life, Ann Lee suffered a career failure because of "Hulk". In this life, Tang En took over Universal Pictures, and of course it was impossible to approve the "Hulk" project.

In the end, because of Tang En, Ann Lee directed "The Chronicles of Narnia 2" again, which suffered a box office failure of the same level.

It seems that the copyright that has been treasured for many years is going to be taken out.

John Wu's level is really not enough, and Tang En is powerless to save him.

Ann Lee is different, and it is definitely worth focusing on cultivation.

"Annie, come here, I want to prepare a super classic movie!"

"what movie?"

"Have you seen Brokeback Mountain?"

"Huh? Isn't that the love story of two men?"

"Yes, you are the heroine!"
