Chapter 858
In the conference room, if the person who hated Twain the most... besides Redstone and Ted Turner, the chairman and CEO of Sony Pictures, Howard Stringer.
If it weren't for Tang En's intervention, he might have won the strong support of the Sony Group's board of directors and become Sony's next helmsman.
It's good now, Sony's entertainment business in the United States has a very bad performance.
With the core electronics manufacturing industry sluggish and the entertainment industry not improving, Sony has even circulated a proposal to spin off the entertainment business.
Since the acquisition of Columbia Pictures, Sony has invested more than 12 billion US dollars in the entertainment industry, and its financial statements have disappointed again and again.
Panasonic withdrew from the U.S. entertainment industry a decade ago.
Ten years later, Sony seems to be following in Panasonic's footsteps.
Once this resolution takes effect, Howard Stringer will lose his job.
Of course, there are enemies like Jerry Bruckheimer and Michael Douglas in the conference room, but they are too low-level to be qualified to speak at the conference.
So at the end of the meeting, only Howard Stringer stood up.
He brought up the old story again, and said with a smirk: "If the Korean thing is done, you will be a hero in Hollywood, but...then again, there is always an explanation for the Harvey Weinstein matter. , you can’t just sit back and watch the world’s media focus on Hollywood’s taint, can you?”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the meeting room became a little stiff.
Even Jack Valenti, the good old man, turned cold and gave him a displeased look.
It doesn't matter if it's serious or not!
Once the South Korea thing is done, it will affect the development of Hollywood in the next few decades. This is a great thing that will benefit the present and benefit the future!
What is Harvey Weinstein?
What a big deal!
The disheartened Lei Shidong suddenly became alive. He really didn't expect that someone would give him a pillow when he fell asleep.
He originally gave up, the situation is hard to shake!
Twain's deployment in South Korea has too much influence, not only for Hollywood, but also for the entire United States.
But I didn't expect that someone was willing to be the first bird!
very good!
The opportunity has come.
Lei Shidong found the right time, and immediately said: "Well, this sentence is very reasonable. Stringer is really firm on the issue of principle, which is admirable. One is one, and the other is two. Tang En was in Korea. The layout is indeed excellent, but this cannot change his reckless handling of the Harvey Weinstein matter. The glamorous image of Hollywood has been created through the joint efforts of generations of filmmakers over the past few decades. A certain individual, and affects the external impression of this group."
As soon as this remark came out, many people couldn't help laughing.
The brilliance of Hollywood lies only in the handsome men, beautiful women and big stars.
The entertainment circles all over the world are similar.
Glossy on the outside, dirty on the inside.
It's just that, before, it was just everyone's speculation, and the Harvey Weinstein incident... has become solid evidence.
In American media reports, there are many secrets to entering the film and television industry, one of which is: no matter what your sexual orientation is, you must always be ready to offer sex to anyone who can open your career.
Of course, some industry rules still have to be followed, otherwise there will be suspicion of defamation.
The author did not use the word "***", but used a more euphemistic replacement word, such as "to make him feel happy and have fun in private". Unless you are an honest gentleman who has been in a coma for a hundred years, you will definitely understand the meaning.
Hollywood is better than Broadway.
The circle in New York is called a mess.
For men, not to mention "sibling love", even "mother-child love" dramas emerge in endlessly, it is impossible for young fresh meat to be in the top position without dedicating themselves. For women, many captivity, slavery, and super-large-scale dramas are not surprising.
Faced with doubts about the Harvey Weinstein incident again, Dunn became much calmer.
He didn't even rush to answer, but took a deep look at Howard Stringer, and the corner of his mouth slightly hooked.
this person……
About Woody Allen, he hasn't fought back yet, and this time he's making trouble again!
It doesn't matter, let's settle this account slowly!
"The matter of Harvey Weinstein..." Tang En deliberately made a long voice, paused, and shook his head, "It's just a trivial matter. I thought that such a high-profile meeting would discuss the future of Hollywood. I didn’t expect you to be more sympathetic to Harvey Weinstein in regards to the major issues in the strategic landscape.”
Lei Shidong's face darkened, "It's not sympathy, it's questioning! You shouldn't use such drastic measures. Now the media all over the world are criticizing Hollywood, how do you plan to deal with it?"
"a piece of cake!"
Tang En waved his hand, looking indifferent.
Ted Turner snorted coldly, "It's easy to say!"
Tang En said lightly: "Of course, with Mr. Turner's current influence in the industry, it is still very difficult to solve this trouble. After all, you have been fired by Time Warner and have no real power. I am different, I am New Universal The chairman of the group!"
Which pot was not opened and which pot was lifted, Ted Turner almost lost his breath.
Lei Shidong said in a deep voice: "Okay, then tell me, how to solve this matter?"
Tang En said with satisfaction: "Of course, it's breaking news that's even bigger, to divert the attention of the world's media."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.
"No way!"
Jack Valentine almost jumped up again.
Many people also ignored the rules of speaking, and rushed to express their opinions. Spielberg said: "Twain, you handled the Weinstein incident very correctly! Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Rather than letting him continue to poison Hollywood, it is better Take it as soon as possible! I will always support you!"
George Lucas also quickly said: "The matter of Harvey Weinstein, in the final analysis, is caused by the unhealthy trend in Hollywood, which needs to be shared by all of us. Dunn, this matter has nothing to do with you, but you must never fermented."
Miros Foreman said: "Hollywood matters must be handled by Hollywood people after all. Some people... Although they bought a Hollywood film company, they are complete laymen, and they have no right to interfere."
Francis Coppola frowned and said, "Tang En, your contribution to Hollywood is obvious to all. What happened to Harvey Weinstein... No one can say anything, he deserved what he deserved. However, enough is enough, don't do it any more. enlarged."
Everyone understands Tang En's temper.
Hard and smelly!
Tang En said that he was going to break the news, and when he said this, everyone was shocked.
Not to mention these industry directors in Hollywood, even Redstone and Ted Turner were slightly taken aback.
What is Tang En doing here?
This is relying on the great achievements of the layout in South Korea, dare to throw the table threat?
Too shameless, right?
If the tables were really turned... Twain would still be Twain, Lei Shidong and Ted Turner, and they would completely become Hollywood's historical sinners!
This trick is too ruthless!
Lei Shidong's face was ashen, Ted Turner's old face was ashen, and Howard Stringer was also terrified, with the corners of his mouth constantly twitching.
Tang En's words immediately sparked an upsurge in the meeting. Everyone rushed to express their support for Tang En's handling of Harvey Weinstein, and some even criticized Redstone and Ted by name. · Turner is stubborn, is a film amateur, is an antique.
There are too many dirty things in Hollywood.
Especially some old-fashioned filmmakers, which one has a clean bottom?
If Tang En was really angered and asked him to overturn the table and expose everyone's old background, then everyone would be in danger and die together!
Seeing everyone's reaction, Tang En felt a little funny in his heart.
Both kindness and power... It seems that "power" is more powerful.
At the beginning, he proposed the Korean Raiders, mainly to show favor to everyone.
The effect is good, and it has indeed been appreciated and praised by everyone.
However, it was Tang En who said that bigger news would be exposed, which really led to the climax of the meeting, especially for some old-fashioned filmmakers who were retiring. They have retired from making movies, and they are not afraid of offending big shots like Redstone and Ted Turner.
Only fear of being exposed!
In Hollywood back then, the red sofa audition was a standard procedure and a necessary part.
Tang En's hole cards are enough.
It's not even all out yet.
It has completely disintegrated the main purpose of this MPAA meeting, and made all filmmakers stand on his side wholeheartedly.
Tang En has already mastered the method of using both grace and power.
"Okay, everyone, don't be nervous. I think you may have misunderstood. I don't mean Hollywood." Seeing that the atmosphere was pretty much the same, and most of the people present firmly expressed their support for him, Tang En pressed down. hand.
"The Harvey Weinstein incident has a great social influence, and it has caused a certain degree of discredit to Hollywood's external image. I know this. However, as I said, such a cancer must be eliminated as soon as possible, otherwise it will take a long time. There will be even bigger changes! If you do many unrighteous actions, you will die yourself!"
"Instead of waiting for him to be exposed and catching us all by surprise, let's take the initiative to take down Harvey Weinstein. Although it has a certain impact on Hollywood's image, he was taken down by Hollywood himself after all. , This is a self-examination of Hollywood. In contrast, the Jimmy Savile incident in the United Kingdom is the real tragedy."
Tang En's words were immediately seconded by everyone.
Hollywood's self-examination, which exposed Harvey Weinstein, is not too cheap after all. But the bbc is different. It was the Americans who exposed Jimmy Savile, which created a very passive situation for the bbc.
From this perspective, Hollywood did not suffer a sudden blow in Twain's handling of the Harvey Weinstein incident, and everyone was able to adopt public relations measures in an orderly manner.
Much better than the bbc's situation.
"It's not Hollywood...Twain, what are you referring to?"
Jack Valentine looked suspicious.
What other big event can shift the media's attention away from Hollywood?
It can't be a political scandal in the White House, can it?
Immediately, Jack Valenti shook his head.
Tang En would not be so stupid.
