Chapter 659 Acquisition of Universal?

the next day.

When Zucker returned to Los Angeles, Wald Pictures president Kevin Feige came to the door.

"Boss, this is the announcement plan for the movies "The Chainsaw" and "The Devil Wears Prada", please take a look."

Kevin Feige's attitude was very respectful.

Zuke immediately smiled and said, "It's rare for you to come and submit documents in person. Let's put it here first, and I'll talk about it after I'm done with my work."

In the face of his generals, Zu Ke was quite enthusiastic. After speaking, Zucker found that Kevin Feige had not left.

"Well, there are other things?" Zucker asked in surprise.

Kevin Feige waved his hand: "No, no, I'm not busy today. When you finish these things, you just need to approve my plan as soon as possible."

Zuke didn't care, he nodded with a smile: "That's ok, you can sit by yourself, by the way, there are coffee beans from Jeff Bezos in the back cabinet, it's a rare good thing, you can taste it Taste it, and you can take a little with you when you leave.”

"Then thank you boss!"

He has also heard about the coffee beans that Jeff Bezos gave to Zucker. They are really very precious and good things that you can't buy on the market.

Half an hour later...there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Zucker raised his head slightly.

Door open.

The person who came in was the senior vice president of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group - Jack Dusen Smit.

As the vice president of the head office, he is mainly in charge of the work of Wald Pictures, TV Group, and Jin Shuguang Music. He is the superior leader directly under Kevin Feige.

"Du Sen, you are here, Kevin happens to be here too, he just submitted the announcement plan of the two films "The Chainsaw" and "The Devil Wears Prada", you have seen it, we just have a discussion. "

Zucker greeted him.

Dusen glanced at Kevin Feige, who was sitting on the sofa, and then said, "Boss, I didn't see the so-called announcement plan document."

"Uh, you haven't had time to look at it yet? That's fine, just take a look now."

Zucker laughed.

"boss,

It's not that I didn't have time to watch it, but that I didn't receive the so-called announcement plan at all. "

When Duson's remarks came out...

In an instant the whole place went silent!

Zucker looked at Kevin Feige.

Why?

Kevin Feige, as the president of Wald Pictures, is one of the executives of the head office, and he is also a direct subordinate to the vice president of the head office, Dusen. To be more precise, the direction of the entire Wald Films is under the responsibility of Dusen.

In other words, the approval process for the announcement and distribution plan of the two films "The Chainsaw" and "The Devil Wears Prada" is to submit the documents to Dusen, the vice president of the head office, and he will give instructions;

However, it was submitted to CEO Victor, who would either agree or reject the instructions given by Dusen;

Finally, summarize the data and approval results into the hands of Zhu Ke, who is the boss;

But now what?

What Dusen meant inside and outside the words: Kevin Feige violated the normal operating procedures and directly skipped the direct leader Dusen.

What is he going to do? !

For any large company, this kind of operation is undoubtedly a provocation!

Kevin Feige, what a shrewd person, would he make such a rudimentary mistake? Obviously not! Then everything shows that he is fighting with Du Sen.

"Kevin, what's going on?" Zucker asked.

There is a guess in Zucker's heart... It is very likely that it is an internal personnel and factional struggle again!

Dusen didn't speak, but was also waiting for Kevin Feige's answer.

Kevin Feige smiled embarrassingly and accused Dusen: "Mr. Smit, this time it was my fault, and it was my fault that I forgot, you see... I have already prepared the materials. "

As he spoke, he took out another document from his briefcase.

Du Sen laughed and said, "It's fine, as long as you have the materials."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and respectfully said to Zhu Ke, "Boss, I'll take a look first, and talk about it later."

he left.

For a time, only Zucker and Kevin Feige were left in the entire office again.

Kevin Feige also said at this time: "Boss, since Mr. Smit has not read the documents, then I will leave first."

Want to go?

dream!

Zhu Ke said solemnly, "Stop, come back to me!"

"Boss, you have something to do, please order."

Hearing this, Zu Ke laughed instead of being angry: "Kevin, for this sake, you are still pretending to be with me. Tell me, what do you think?"

Damn internal fighting!

The struggle within a big company will never stop!

Just like in an ancient kingdom, the struggle between ministers and ministers will always exist. Even if you, as the monarch, change a group of people and kill a group of people, the people who are replaced will also be replaced by various reasons and interests. Fighting each other again, there is no possibility of a group of harmony, that is absolutely a dream.

"Boss, since you've already asked, I won't hide it from you." Kevin Feige gritted his teeth.

Zhu Kejing waited for his words.

Kevin Feige resisted his anger and said solemnly: "I got the news that the vice president Jack Dusen Smit has proposed to you a plan to separate production and distribution. What is he doing? Completely dismantle our power structure?"

"I heard that he also listed a lot of data to support his words."

"It's a joke to say that we have wasted hundreds of millions of company assets over the years! Complete nonsense!"

The voice fell.

Zu Ke said in his heart that it was true.

......

After a short while, Kevin Feige left Zucker's office after venting.

As for Zucker?

Hehe, of course, he comforted him, but he did not make any promises! In a way, Zucker is backing Duesen's proposal to completely separate production from distribution. Of course, this move will indeed greatly reduce the power of a series of executives at Wald Pictures.

dong dong dong~

The knock on the door sounded again!

Vice President Jack Dusen Smit entered Zucker's office again.

"Boss, I think Kevin Feige..."

Hearing this, Zhu Ke hurriedly interrupted: "Let's not talk about this, I have a message to tell you, you can help me analyze it."

Where would Zucker let him keep talking?

Whether it's Kevin Feige or his Dusen, they're all Zhu Ke's generals, and the palms and backs are full of meat. What do you want Zu Ke to do?

Of course it can only be choice and mud.

The best way to divert a topic is to talk about another, more critical topic.

- Universal Pictures!

That's right!

Zhu Ke said solemnly: "I just got the news that due to the 'buy, buy, buy' strategy implemented by Vivendi Group Chairman Messier, the French Vivendi Group, a water company with a history of 150 years, has succeeded in a short period of time. In just a few years, it has transformed into a global media giant, and even Universal Pictures, one of the six major Hollywood studios, is also its subsidiary."

"But!"

"Now there is news that the blind acquisition and expansion of Vivendi Group has caused its entire system to face the problem of broken capital chains, huge losses, and the risk of collapse at any time."

"Vivendi Group is likely to have to sell a batch of assets in the future, you say, can we get something out of it?"

"What's more, will Vivendi sell Universal Pictures?!"

Compared to Blizzard Games, Zucker is even more greedy...Universal Pictures.

" "The first more is sent.
