Chapter 1441 An empire and an era revealed
In addition to Universal Pictures, several major film companies in Hollywood have very complicated emotions about Andy now. On the one hand, no one will refuse to cooperate with him who has a lot of IPs in his hands, and on the other hand, they are not willing to be trampled by him who owns Universal Pictures. And maybe they will join forces in the future to express rejection and anxiety.
However, no matter what they are worried about, Andy Smith, a super rich man who is not short of money, has joined the game. What's even more terrible is that even without Universal Pictures, the newly established Tingfeng Entertainment trend is going to be full of teeth.
The release of more than a dozen movies such as "The Decisive Battle with Ira Valley", "Garage Shock", "Dance of My Life 2", "Beauty and Ugly Girl", "Break Journey", "The Scandal Plan", "Sister Di Love", "Never Back off", "Bomb Disposal Force" has allowed the new company of Tingfeng Entertainment to completely gain a foothold among Hollywood heroes.
A "Ghost Record" costing 15,000 yuan has a global box office of more than $240 million, making Hollywood's six biggest hits.
The key is to come next year. The series "Fast Furious 4" series, "Superman" and "Twilight" are all commercial blockbusters. Hollywood film companies are very aware that these movies have been completed long ago, and they are all suppressed by Tingfeng Entertainment to dominate the summer season of 2009. Their ambitions are so great that everyone has a headache.
What's more, Andy Smith not only has a new high-profile Peak Entertainment, but also a Marvel Group that makes all film companies salivate. Especially after "Iron Man" swept the global box office and "The Magic Hulk" relied on the box office to recover costs, Marvel Group became the most delicious piece of fat.
Look at Spider, haven't the X-Men all made a fortune?
The most annoying thing at this time is undoubtedly Disney Pictures ceo Dick Cook. He knew that their chances of Disney's attempt to take over Marvel Group have been completely lost. Andy Smith, who owns Universal Pictures, would never be idiots to sell Marvel Group and break his own arms.
Thinking of adding Marvel superhero themes to the Universal Theme Park will attract the attention of all boys, Disney is pounding its chest and stamping its feet. It can be imagined that in the future, the Universal Theme Park will compete with Disney, and on the one hand it will seize the boys market and on the other hand it will be the girl market.
Not to mention Warner, who owns DC Comics, naturally, they regarded Universal Pictures, which was about to be equipped with Marvel wings, as their biggest competitor in the future.
The most embarrassing thing is Paramount. He originally thought that he could make a big profit by taking the Marvel Rise Express, but suddenly he found that he might be kicked out of the car halfway through, so he was so irritated.
Sony Columbia, which has been entangled with Marvel, is really a headache. Since Andy Smith has been annexing Marvel, she has been constantly greedy and forcing them to give up some of the interests of Spider.
They were really helpless to be harassed. As soon as the Spider-Fan movie was sold, the Marvel negotiating team would come to the door. They looked like they didn't give us some points, so we would sue and overturn the agreement. They were so rogue.
There is no way. When encountering such a rogue, Sony can only give in. Although he is not afraid of lawsuits, the money for lawsuits is also very expensive. Moreover, they don’t want to have a quarrel with Marvel. They didn’t see the uncompromising 20th Century Fox being forced to protest with no means of wailing?
I have to say that the Marvel led by Andy Smith is too shameless and disgusting. The X-Men comics have been completely deformed by Marvel. The character design collapses collectively, and the dead and the destruction is completely a perfect match. Damn, don’t pay, right? Everyone’s face is not just about threats, they are really trying to destroy themselves.
Both Sony and Twentieth Century Fox are really afraid of such animals with a personality that are not alive!
Looking at Andy Smith, who was chatting and laughing with Paramount Ceo Brad Gray, this handsome young super rich man, a business genius who is about to become their new boss of NBC Universal, Universal Pictures Acting President Adam Ferguson stood beside Andy with a smile, his mood and thoughts were also difficult to calm down, and he was excited and nervous.
After the original president was drafted, he was recalled by General Electric. Adam Ferguson was the acting president signed by Gaia's team to join NBC Global and signed and agreed to the representative of Andy Smith, who fully presided over the daily operations of Universal Pictures.
Although he has just taken office not long ago, he was originally the president of NBC Global International, mainly responsible for the promotion and distribution of overseas film markets. He is not unfamiliar with Universal Pictures' work and got started quickly.
He knew that if you want to remove the agent prefix, the most important thing is to make the work of Universal Pictures smoothly and hand over a stable company to the new boss.
After Andy had a hot chat with the film company's CEO and faced Adam Ferguson alone, Andy only said one sentence, which was the only requirement for the acting president.
"Global must always maintain the title of the most stable studio in the film industry!"
Adam Ferguson also breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, what he was most worried about was the young and energetic boss who walked into Disney. After all, with many IPs, the construction of the theme park is still a very attractive project.
But for Universal Pictures, it's a bit of putting the cart before the horse. Sure enough, the new boss's pace in business is really very steady.
"By the way, the "Fast Furious" series will be released to Universal in the future. "Twilight" and "Superman" can also be distributed. After all, Tempest Entertainment still lacks its foundation, and maximizing benefits is the most important thing."
Andy held the champagne, reached out to hold the sweet smile on his face, keeping Gal Gadot's slender waist, and told Adam Ferguson indifferently that he didn't care at all that the acquisition had not been officially completed.
"I understand, thank you boss." Adam Ferguson did not care about the fact that Andy had not officially owned NBC Global, but responded directly with a very terrifying and slutty attitude.
"In the future, I will further integrate film resources. It is inevitable that Pinfeng Entertainment will be incorporated into the Universal Pictures sequence, including Weinstein Pictures. I heard that Spielberg and Paramount have fallen out, so we have been working with this big director for a happy time?
Let’s go and see if it’s possible to pull him to our side. There is also DreamWorks Animation, and the Transformers series has a global influence no less than Harry Potter.”
"Okay, boss." Adam Ferguson responded immediately without saying a word. He had learned from all aspects of the young new boss he was serving. Although the new boss would give his subordinates great autonomy, the young boss also had a strong control over Yu. He did not like his subordinates to go against his wishes and decisions.
"Wait a minute, I'll introduce you to me..." Andy looked at Adam with satisfaction, then reached out and waved to Carl not far away.
Carl walked over with a champagne and smiled. Although Adam and Carl didn't have much contact, they were not unfamiliar with it. After all, Carl stayed on the NBC Global Board of Directors for several months, and his presence was crazy, which made the whole group panic and could not meet.
"Carl is busy. If some resources in the world can be used, you have to help." Andy signaled with a glass of wine. Both of them raised their glasses and touched them lightly. Adam naturally would not refuse Andy's instructions.
Adam also knew that Carl was the Hollywood spokesperson launched by the new boss and was deeply trusted by the new boss. Especially this fat man Carl himself is also very capable, and his rise in Hollywood is also surprising. After all, some things cannot be done with money.
