Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 358-Producers Alliance

December 9.

The vigorous Hollywood Screenwriters Guild’s registered 11,000 screenwriters’ strike has lasted for a week. On the main streets of downtown Los Angeles, hordes of screenwriters can be seen every day for the benefit of their group. Scream and sing.

During this period, the executives, led by the screenwriters union, repeatedly wanted to talk to representatives of the Producers Union, but they were refused.

In a word, you can talk about it if you want to talk about it!

Capital will not compromise easily!

On this day, as many as 320 representatives of major Hollywood film companies, American radio, television, and radio stations, as well as numerous independent producer representatives, attended today's producer league meeting.

The main idea is to eliminate disputes as soon as possible and resume work as soon as possible!

"Hahaha, Zhuke, congratulations on making headlines again. Well, I read the news, you are quite photogenic!"

As soon as Zhu Ke arrived at the scene, Rupert Murdoch, the boss of 20th Century Fox Pictures, approached him.

"Don't taunt me!"

Zhuke glanced at Murdoch ill-tempered, and said, "If it weren't for me to be smashed in the face with leather shoes, this group of screenwriters will definitely make more trouble now. I am the benefactor of the entire producer league."

Murdoch smiled and nodded and said, "What you said is reasonable."

Summer Redstone, president of Viacom Group and Paramount Pictures, also echoed at this moment: "The rude and violent behavior in the strike was reported by the media, and the screenwriters who participated in the strike were pushed to At the cusp of the storm, many people indeed scolded them for their violent behavior."

Zhuke hated the attacker White Sand.

In fact, many of the screenwriters involved in the strikes also criticized White Sand for being stupid.

As a screenwriter’s employees, because of low pay, they demand a salary increase from the film and television companies as the capital. This in itself is a legal act entrusted to them by the law, and it often gets the support of ordinary people. However...White Sander blatantly attacked Zhuke, the taste of this incident has changed.

violence!

violence!

Many people like to use violence, but they also hate violence!

White Sand's brazen attack on Zhuke, to a certain extent, is an act of discrediting the screenwriters' union and will cause them to lose some potential supporters.

Therefore, it is reasonable for Zhu Ke to say that he is the benefactor of the Producers League!

Soon...

Chairman of the Disney Group: Michael Eisner;

Chairman of Time Warner Group: Steve Ross;

Many film companies such as Universal Pictures, Sony Columbia, DreamWorks, Emperor Gate Pictures, Artisan Entertainment, MGM, etc., come either from company bosses or company executives.

The number of billionaires at the scene, as many as dozens;

Everyone participating in today's Producers League meeting is a big-time figure with great power in the American entertainment industry.

The specifications are so high that it is luxurious!

"Kirk Kecorian, I heard that you divorced your wife after less than a month of marriage. What's the matter?"

Before the meeting officially opened, Disney Chairman Michael Eisner joked at the MGM CEO and known as the "Gambling King" Kirk Kecorian.

Divorce after less than a month of marriage?

I have to say that even people in high positions love the tightness of gossip.

Many people throughout the scene pricked their ears, and Zhu Ke was no exception.

To know that Kecorian's wedding not long ago, Zhuke personally attended and sent blessings.

"Kecorian, don't be dark, just talk about it." Redstone didn't think the excitement was too big.

Zhu Ke also said loudly: "Yeah, let's talk about it."

Many people clamored at the scene.

At this moment, Rao, the 82-year-old gambler Kecorian, couldn't help but twitch his old face.

Many people even speculate that Kecorian divorced less than a month after he was married. It is most likely that his body cannot bear it and cannot satisfy his young wife.

After all, he is 82 years old!

Of course, this is just an episode of today's Producers League meeting...

Not long after, the meeting officially opened.

As the interim head of the Producers Union, Disney Chairman Michael Eisner took the lead in speaking: "Let me talk about my attitude first. The Disney Group will not easily compromise with the screenwriters of the Screenwriters Guild. What's more, the famous and young Promising Zhuke has been attacked, so we cannot compromise."

No compromise!

This view has been supported by many producer representatives.

Zhu Ke was the first to support!

"It's all compromised, so everyone will follow suit in the future. What dignity does our production companies have in the future?"

In fact, Zhu Ke's consistent principle is to keep a low profile, make a fortune in a muffled voice, and don't like to be the first bird.But this is not good. After all, Zhu Ke was attacked, but it was exposed by the media.

Murdoch: "Although our 20th Century Fox Pictures and News Corporation have made good profits every year, our money is not caused by the wind. Why should we add money to them (screenwriters)."

Redstone: "I will put my words here today. Whether it is Viacom Group or Paramount Pictures, it will never bow to a group of thugs."

Most people support and agree with the decision of the Disney chairman.

however......

Steve Rose, chairman of Time Warner Group, one of the six largest media groups in Hollywood and the world's largest media group, refuted it loudly.

"I suggest to negotiate with the screenwriter representatives of the strike immediately and negotiate with the screenwriters union to resolve the dispute as soon as possible."

"Everyone, don't forget..."

"It's only the screenwriters who are making trouble now, but can you guarantee that the actors and directors' unions will not take the opportunity to jump out and make trouble?"

"You have to know that once this group of people also jump out, then the situation will inevitably expand. By then, the situation will not be determined by us. At that time, the price we will pay may be even greater."

The voice fell, and the scene couldn't help being quiet.

Every time a Hollywood screenwriter strikes, it is not only screenwriters who participate, actors, directors and other roles in the industry chain will also jump out to seek higher demands.

This is something that the producer league has to consider!

"Humph!"

Zhuke snorted coldly: "Steve Rose, you don’t confuse others. If you want to compromise, just go. Don’t think we don’t know what you’re thinking, or that Time Warner Group is in the process of acquiring AOL. Is it a critical period?"

Steve Rose: "..."

Everyone present was a shrewd person, even if they were fooled, they all reacted now.

Zhuke is not afraid to offend Steve Rose, after all, the relationship between Zhuke and Time Warner Group itself is not good, and he is not afraid to offend him.

Disney Chairman Michael Eisner said: "Steve, you are not kind, this is the rhythm of being a traitor!"

This sentence has been supported by many people.

Ever since, many people at the scene condemned Steve Rose and Time Warner.

Time is passing slowly~

This meeting lasted for a whole day before it came to an end.

The result is gratifying!

Everyone set a tone: don't compromise, just leave them alone!

Of course, the Producers League is not doing nothing.

The most important thing is to stabilize the actors’ union, director’s union...other major unions, and prevent them from jumping out to make trouble, in order to isolate the screenwriter’s union.

There is even a radical producer representative who said: "Even if I transfer my interests to directors and actors, I am unwilling to give my interests to the screenwriters. After all, they (the screenwriters) always jump out first in every strike. !"

"" The second update is sent.
