Chapter 357: take advantage of the situation



  However, all the butterfly effects are because they can be affected by variables, while other things that cannot be affected by variables, or those things that are enough to affect Roland, will still continue to run according to their own trajectory.

  Like a natural disaster, no one can stop it;

  Like social development, there are very few people who can control it.

   And now, Henry Rumsfeld\'s new master actually has the same existence.

He came from a political family, his grandfather was a senator from Maine, and his father was a deputy commander for two terms and a commander in chief for one term. There is no international influence, but as long as Dad is there, he can obtain resources that countless people envy.

The capital that supports his father will bet on him. You don’t need to recruit yourself. A top staff team can be formed. When the votes are behind and you need to fight to the death in Florida, the state government responsible for counting votes is a member of the Elephant Party. The governor is still his own younger brother. Such an advantage is the basis for the start of the judicial battle of the century. The thirty-six-day confrontation finally allowed the judiciary to overstep the boundaries of decision politics, which demonstrated the replacement of resources and the strength of the aristocratic family. charm.

  In this case, unless Lee Oswald was sacrificed, Roland couldn\'t think of any reason why this young master would fail.

After finalizing the donation in a few words, the atmosphere at the next table was even more relaxed. Although these guys are not used to discussing things at the table, but now, it is Roland\'s home field. He wants to talk, and the other two I will talk with you.

   "If he wins in the end, I think I will resign as the chairman of Gilead." Henry Rumsfeld put the broccoli in his mouth, chewing and saying, "The vacant position, let David take over?"

In Roland’s previous life, after Henry Rumsfeld resigned as the chairman of Gilead, his successor was the founder of Gilead. A lot of voice.

   To put it bluntly, without him, Gilead would not be able to go smoothly.

  But now, compared with that liar, it is more reassuring to let the community of interests take over.

   As for company development?

   Capital-driven companies that grow through mergers and acquisitions, as long as they have money and people, will do.

  Because of this, Roland shook his head and said, "No need, just arrange people."

"David is now a member of the board of directors of Amazon, Apple, and Google. Not only that, but all the companies under my name are represented by him. In this case, it is not only meaningless and easy to carry the directorship of Gilead. It was affected by public opinion, so you just watch and send people in, I believe you anyway."

   "Okay." Henry Rumsfeld nodded without forcing.

   But even so, he still wanted to tie Roland to the station car, "Then, after James graduates, will he come to work in the company?"

   "Why do you start as a department manager? Let him open up any projects you are interested in."

   "Then it depends on his own wishes."

   Roland did not agree to such a bundling proposal, and Henry Rumsfeld also smiled and expressed his understanding. After a brief chat, he turned the topic to movies.

"Black Hawk Down" was launched in May, and it was finished at the end of September. According to the four-month production process, it will be released in January next year, but even so, Sony has not set a file, and pushed everything to Warcraft film and television.

   "So, when will we bring the movie to market?" Arnold Schwarzenegger asked.

"It must not be scheduled on October 3rd." Henry Rumsfeld ordered: "Although we want to stimulate the public\'s emotions and put pressure on Congress to increase military procurement, we should not make it too obvious .”

   "..."

   Roland was extremely speechless when he heard that the **** wanted to set up a memorial archway. However, it was a very good thing that he didn\'t force his head and let him release the movie on the day of the Black Hawk Down incident.

  Therefore, he said: "Late August and early September."

"February, March and April have low traffic. Even if it is released, it will not have the effect of publicity. In May there is Memorial Day for the Civil War, in June there is National Flag Day, and in July there is Independence Day. It is easy for the opposition to make a fuss. , and there is Veterans Day in October, and Christmas in November and December, so August, when there are no major festivals, is the best time to release it.”

   "Then arrange it for Labor Day in September?" Arnold Schwarzenegger suggested.

Before the words were finished, Henry Rumsfeld took out his mobile phone, found the calendar, and said, "Labor Day is the first Monday in September, and it will be September 3 next year. It will be released at that time, and there should be no competition." By."

  \'September 3rd? \'

  ‘That’s only eight days away from the 11th! \'

  As soon as he heard the date, Roland was happy.

I thought, \'you chose this date yourself, and it has nothing to do with me\', "Yes, I respect your opinions, my original intention was to launch a war movie, and now if it can help my friends, why not do it? "

   "Hahaha~"

  Such words caused the two of them to laugh again and again. After raising their wine glasses and touching them lightly, everything was silent.

They ate a meal for two hours. In addition to the two key topics of the campaign situation and the release schedule of "Black Hawk Down", they also chatted about Arnold Schwarzenegger\'s new movie. The guy in the series, the future governor is trying his best to fool James Cameron out of the mountain.

  Yes, after filming "Terminator 2", the truck driver who felt that the series was over did not want to continue, but for the future governor, his only series is the foundation of Hollywood.

  Roland could understand the thoughts of the future governor, and he could also understand the truck driver\'s desire to maintain his reputation, so he didn\'t give his own advice on this, but happily asked him to have a good talk with the old man.

  This result disappointed the future governor, but he didn\'t dwell on it.

After the meal, the group separated amicably, and when Roland wanted to find a place to take a breather, Jerry Levin, the boss of Time Warner who was still on the island, came to the door, and when he opened his mouth, he complained Own is not easy.

   "Roland, it\'s really hard to meet you."

   "Last Christmas, we said we would talk about cooperation this year, but in the blink of an eye, we will see this Christmas."

   "It\'s been a year! It\'s been a year! Do you know how I\'ve spent the whole year?"

Although this is the third time that Roland has met Time Warner boss Jerry Levine (the first time was before the wedding, and the second time was on the wedding day), he was still amused by the tone of Zha Zhahui, He waved his hands and said, "Oh, Jerry, is Steve Case Tom? Chasing you behind you every day?"

  As soon as these words came out, Jerry Levin was stunned.

   Immediately realized that Roland was using his own name to play "Tom and Jerry" memes!

He, Jerry, is the Jerry mouse in "Tom and Jerry" in Roland\'s mouth, and Steve Case, the boss of America Online, is the Tom Cat in Roland\'s mouth. In fact, Time Warner and AOL have already been brainstorming about rights disputes after the merger before the Ministry of Commerce of America has officially approved it.

   "Ah! We\'re not talking about that today."

  If it were someone else joking, Jerry Levine would have been cold-faced.

  But after seeing the lineup of blessings at yesterday\'s wedding, I joked that it was just a literal meaning.

  After quickly uncovering this topic, he shook his head and said, "Can we start talking about the cooperation you mentioned last year?"

  “We want to outsource the DC female superhero movie project to Warcraft Film and Television. We don’t care which female superhero you want to shoot and how you want to shoot this female superhero.”

   "And our request, in fact, is only one, and that is..."

   "Make money." Before Jerry Levine could finish speaking, Roland had already told the truth.

   Such a situation also made him stunned on the spot when he was in contact with Roland for the first time.

   About three seconds later, he squeezed out a helpless smile and said, "Yes, yes, earn money."

  If we say that last year, Time Warner made every effort to develop the female-oriented derivative IP market, then this year, their primary goal is to make money. The reason is actually very simple, that is, chasing fame and profit!

When the Internet bubble collapsed, Time Warner expressed doubts about AOL\'s triple play, but under the suppression of shares, they could not win the company\'s master control. So, directly making female superheroes into IP became To realize the sweet dreams they cannot get for the time being, and to improve the company\'s profits, win the support of former AOL shareholders, and regain the management rights have become the goals of Time Warner and others. to everything.

It was precisely because he knew this that Roland did not come with him, and said directly: "But if it is because of performance, I hope you can wait a little longer, because Steven\'s "Harry Potter" will Start at the end of the month."

"Next Christmas, "Harry Potter" will definitely meet the public. Not only that, but "X-Men", which has already been filmed, will also be available to the public next year. Let\'s see the effect first, and then decide whether to be with me or not. cooperate."

   "Of course, I did it for a reason."

  “Because I think whether it is Marvel or DC, it is still somewhat difficult for heroines to drive women’s consumption.”

   “You tried feminism in the 70s, you tried feminism in the 80s, you tried feminism in the 90s, but did it work? Don’t people like Disney princess movies?”

   "So, after reading the market feedback, my personal thought is to wait for the social wind to turn and do it."

   "I think you guys know better than me about things like social trends. They were born out of media hype, propagated through the media, implanted in the hearts of the people, and divide the people, so as to make profits by creating an atmosphere of opposition."

"This kind of thing is your specialty, but the previous failures were all because people couldn\'t communicate with each other in a short period of time and find partners who agree with them. Like in the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, was it useful for you to spread feminist ideas? "

   "There are only so few people in an area, and no matter how noisy it is, it won\'t be too big."

   "After it is possible, it will be different. With the popularization of the Internet, people can be recognized in the virtual world."

  “When information is exchanged, it becomes a simple and clear thing to lead a wave.”

  "Because any wave must rely on the approval of the same kind to go further and spread wider."

"Although the public is easy to be fooled, a single individual is still easy to be stopped by others, but if those fooled guys unite and find companions, then they will no longer listen to persuasion, but feel that the person who persuades them is the one who affects them. A beast with its own legitimate interests, at that time, won\'t it be easier to succeed if it is targeted at the content?"

   "..."

  Jerry Levine was dumbfounded, and sighed: "Did Steven teach you this?"

   "No wonder your movies are easy to sell!"

\'Hey! What does this have to do with Steven Spielberg? \'

   Roland waved his hand, pretending to be profound, \'It\'s all taught by Disney. \'

  If there were no "Black Panther" and "Captain Marvel", no one would know that a movie could be made like this!

  Of course, at the same time that a consensus was reached, Roland also made it clear that if a cooperation is really reached, then he will definitely use Batman.

   Regarding Roland\'s thoughts, Jerry Levine, who came here for performance, was also unambiguous.

With a big wave of his hand, he said: "As long as "Harry Potter" can bring us a bright profit for Warner, and at the same time, the performance of "X-Men" is not bad without you, then I can make the decision and hand over Batman to you." shoot!"

   Come on!

   Roland felt extremely comfortable hearing these words!

  Although the promises of the capitalists are not credible, in the face of interests, the contract is a piece of shit.

  When "Harry Potter" won a billion box office, even if Jerry Levine wanted to regret it...

  AOL Time Warner shareholders will not agree!

  Compared to Time Warner\'s crispness, the Disney tyrant who came to find Roland at four o\'clock in the afternoon was a bit awkward.

Michael Eisner said on the one hand that the cooperation between "A Paired One" and "Hot Mom and Spice Girls" is a win-win situation, but on the other hand, he said that he was somewhat dissatisfied with Roland\'s cooperation with Disney even though he had a distribution channel. untie.

  Before the change, Roland couldn\'t reply, but now, he said directly: "This morning, Steven, Paul, and William came to me together, saying that David wanted to withdraw the shares, and Microsoft wanted to get in."

  "With Microsoft officially joining DreamWorks, they hope to buy the shares of Sony, Amblin and Warcraft Film and Television from me and Steven, so, if this deal is really reached..."

   "Then my distribution channel will be gone."

  ‘What? \'

Michael Eisner was taken aback by such explosive news, but after seeing Roland\'s face that didn\'t look like a fake, his mind immediately became active—if it was someone else, he would definitely not believe this kind of deal, But Roland is the guy who sold Yahoo to Microsoft! A company with a market value of hundreds of billions can be killed by him, so what is a global distribution channel of more than one billion?

   And if Microsoft really enters Hollywood, then if it can win over the Jewish gang, this game will no longer be playable!

  The other five companies can only watch them make money at the box office, then die slowly, and are finally acquired!

  And in this case, splitting up in advance is the key to life-saving!

   After all, Microsoft is really too rich!

   After thinking about all this, Michael Eisner no longer hesitated, and reached out to Roland, "Okay, happy cooperation."

   "Tomorrow, I will ask them to sign an outsourcing agreement with Warcraft Film and Television."

   Done!

   Roland smiled and stretched out his hand, and shook it firmly.

Note: ①Century litigation has been written into countless books, so I won’t go into details here, and the debate on the mutual interference between judiciary and politics has not stopped until now, and the vice president Al Gore publicly stated that the justice Tell him Bush has to win for America. The handling of invalidated votes, and how many invalidated votes Bush’s younger brother, the governor of Florida, has produced have been written in the book "The History of American Constitutionalism". ②The infighting between AOL and Time Warner ended with both sides being out at the same time. Yes, both sides were out at the same time. The original Time Warner Jerry Levine was kicked out of the company by shareholders in May 2002 because of internal fighting, and The former Steve Case of America Online was forced to resign in January 2003.
