Heads Up Hollywood
Chapter 851 High-level meeting
Twain never participated in the MPAA meeting.
A few years ago, it was because his level was not high enough.
In the past few years, it was because his level was too high.
But this time, he had to be present.
The last time Hollywood giants gathered at MPAA, it will take more than 20 years.
At that time, President Reagan came to power. In order to win the color revolution and defeat the Soviet Union in the Cold War, President Reagan adopted two major strategies surrounding Hollywood.
First, the "Star Wars" program.
That's right, this inspiration comes from the movie "Star Wars" by George Lucas. With the Soviet Union leading the way in military power, President Reagan brought out the creativity of a Hollywood artist and proposed the "Star Wars" strategy.
Since then, the Cold War has shifted from an arms race to a space race, further economically crushing the Soviet Union.
The second is cultural invasion.
President Reagan is a Hollywood actor, he is full of love for Hollywood. When he came to power, Hollywood encountered an unprecedented crisis. Several major studios, including MGM, United Artists, and RKO, went bankrupt, and Paramount, Disney, and Columbia Pictures also encountered crises one after another.
In order to restore the glory of Hollywood, President Reagan launched a series of support plans for Hollywood, which greatly helped Hollywood in terms of taxation, policy, national defense, and culture.
Since then, Hollywood has truly embarked on the road to industrialization, and the gap between Hollywood movies, Soviet movies, and European movies has completely widened.
Hollywood movies began to conquer the world.
American cultural values, along with Hollywood movies, have spread to every corner of the world.
In Hollywood movies over the past few decades, the big villains must be Russians. Hollywood movies left a deep impression on people all over the world - the Soviet Union was an evil empire.
This played a vital role in winning the Cold War.
Among all the rankings of presidents in American history, Reagan is the most loved by the American people.
Unexpectedly, more than 20 years later... mpaa held such a heavyweight meeting again, and the specifications were even higher!
In the last meeting, the bosses of the major film companies gathered together to plan out Hollywood's future value judgments and humanistic tendencies.
This time, it's not just the studios.
And the media empire behind the film company!
"For this matter to be so big, the person behind it must have a strong background." No matter what others say, Michael Ovitz will definitely stand firmly on Tang En's side.
He made a special trip to Tang En's office to discuss this matter.
The meeting will be held at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Tang En nodded thoughtfully, "Indeed, to be able to gather so many brains together... must be a bigwig with great status in the industry."
The list on the invitation alone includes Summer Redstone, Ted Turner, Dunn Walker, Michael Eisner, Michael Ovitz, Jeffrey Katzenberg, Steven Spielberg, Tom Rothman, Michael Ovitz, Howard Stringer, Barry Meyer, Brad Gray, Barry Diller, Roy Disney, Michael Douglas, Paul Newman...
Every name is a well-known figure in the industry!
The last time such a high-level meeting made Hollywood quickly overwhelm European films and become the real top of the world!
Before that, European movies, Soviet movies, Hollywood movies... the gap between them was actually not that big.
But since then, the gap has widened.
This meeting may also determine the future development pattern of Hollywood.
Of course, the focus of the problem must be Tang En.
Regarding Harvey Weinstein, he must give an explanation.
Michael Ovitz introduced Twain as a year-end friend. Whether it was the second spring of his career at Legendary Films, or the second spring of love Kate Beckinsale, they were all "introduced" by Twain.
In front of Tang En, he knew everything, frowned and said: "On the guest list... From my point of view, if Mr. Valenti wasn't in charge of this matter, there would be no more than three people who are capable of accomplishing it. personal."
Mr. Valenti is Jack Valenti. He is the chairman and chief executive officer of MPAA and has been in charge of MPAA for 38 years.
He has witnessed the process of Hollywood from the bottom to the top.
Tang En shook his head and said: "No, the White House... has a lot of opinions on him. Regarding the matter of "Fahrenheit 9/11", he has no intentions, which already shows that he is too old. Let's see, no accident, use In a few months, the chairman of the MPAA will be replaced."
Michael Ovitz nodded and said, "Well, it's actually a communication channel between Hollywood and Washington/D.C. He can hardly be blamed for the turmoil this summer."
Tang En waved his hand, and said a little funny: "Is there still a need to study this kind of thing? Who else can figure out something that can be understood with a slap on the thigh? Besides Lei Shidong? The fiasco of "King Arthur" made him The revival of Paramount's plan was completely destroyed, and it was a plan to break the pot, and it was planned to not be broken, but to be built after it was broken."
Michael Ovitz also laughed and said: "You can't say that, isn't there another movie at the end of July? It's called "The Unfortunate Adventures of Raymond Snicket". That movie is really full of superstars, including Kim Carrey, Meryl Streep, Dustin Hoffman, Billy Connolly, Jude Law are all involved."
"Paramount?"
The corner of Tang En's mouth curled up in mockery.
To be honest, in response to Viacom and Paramount's attack, Twain often followed the trend.
Following the general trend of history.
In the previous life, Paramount was the first partner of Marvel Pictures.
The first "Iron Man" produced even had sex scenes.
But the people at Paramount are just too stupid.
They would rather spend $3.5 billion to acquire DreamWorks than spend $4 billion to buy Marvel Studios.
As a result, the great opportunity was given to Disney.
Then, in Marvel's superhero movies, there will be no more outrageous shots...
In fact, Marvel's comics are still very pornographic and violent.
It is very different from the children's style of the movie.
In fact, it’s okay to miss Marvel Pictures, but Paramount’s next development strategy is to manage movies in a financial way, without paying attention to brand management at all.
From Transformers, to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, to Special Forces... under Paramount, you can basically see a constant routine.
There is no long-term plan, all plans to make money.
The "Transformers" series filmed by Michael Bay is a repetition of one after another. After several films, the Decepticons are almost dead, and the emperor of the universe is about to appear. How can there be any plan?
You know, "Transformers" has a cybertron chronicle, and the historical entanglement between the two factions is very clear.
This is much easier to adapt than the Marvel comics with various parallel universes and chaotic settings of reset universes.
As a result, Life was screwed by Paramount and Michael Bay.
At this moment, Isla Fisher came over and quietly told Dunn: "Mr. Eisner's call."
"oh?"
Tang En raised his eyebrows, his thoughts moved slightly.
