Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

"Mr. Joe, MGM’s investment in publicity in the Chinese community is insufficient and does not comply with the signed agreement."

Edwin Cartham complained and immediately picked up Lasseter.

It seems that the two directors of DreamWorks Animation Studios are full of indignation at MGM.

"Why didn't you follow the agreement? Don't they know that Aladdin's setting is a Chinese?" Qiao Feng was angry.

Qiao Feng, who arranges more and less canvases, doesn’t care. Anyway, they are all his own movies. But in this publicity, he specifically told him to tilt to the Chinese community in accordance with the publicity investment of Mulan last year.

But MGM’s publicity and distribution department turned out to be against the sun. Isn’t this the boss in the eyes?

After buying MGM, I didn't want the company to be turbulent, because MGM itself has been sad enough to cause turmoil over the years, so Feng Qiao chose to maintain the status quo.

He didn't make any major personnel arrangements and adjustments to MGM. What he wanted was to get through the current predicament first. If he wants to develop well, he can even make no adjustments.

However, Qiao Feng found out that he was wrong.

His consideration, his kindness, and his maintenance of the status quo have not been recognized and thanked by all MGM departments, but they have even been regarded as benevolent.

He even dared to fool around with the things he confessed, and dared to violate the Yin and Yang.

Had it not been for Lasseter to say that he was still kept in the dark.

It seems that it is time for a cleanup.

However, this matter is not anxious, mainly because he does not understand the Hollywood personnel, and the cleansed personnel may not find suitable people to make up for a while.

The most important thing at the moment should be to change the general manager of MGM first. Qiao Feng doesn't know whether the current general manager John is acting against the law, but it doesn't matter.

If he is the leader of Yin Fengyang violation, then it is inevitable to replace him. Even if it is not, then he could not handle such Yin Fengyang violation, which means that his ability is not good enough to be so important. Position.

But, who should be hired as the general manager?

Qiao Feng has a personal choice of Shirley Lansing.

This can be regarded as the most successful woman in Hollywood.

Shirley Lansing started out as an actor in Hollywood, but she played in little-known roles.

Later, it was discovered that there was really no future in the actor industry, so Shirley Lansing left the show business.

In 1974, she joined Talent Associates, a subsidiary of Columbia Film Company, which has produced outstanding films such as "Straw Dog" and "All Living Things".

After joining this company, Shirley Lansing began to develop in the direction of filmmakers.

At this time, Shirley Lansing discovered a career path that really suits her.

She successfully launched a series of profitable films, first as the head of the company's business development department, and after just three years, she was appointed as the vice president, mainly responsible for the company's film production and distribution.

In 1980, when Qiao Feng had just crossed over to Hong Kong, Shirley moved to 20th Century Fox Pictures as the general manager, becoming the first woman in Hollywood history to lead the eight major film groups.

However, Qiao Feng himself knew that it was basically impossible to dig her over.

Because they have already achieved the position of general manager of Fox in the 20th century.

It is completely unnecessary to change jobs to MGM or to become the general manager.

Besides, MGM is now inferior to the 20th Century Fox.

I am afraid that the position of MGM chairman may not be able to move her.

And if nothing happens, Shirley Lansing will be the chairman of Paramount Pictures in two years.

This is an established Hollywood boss. Qiao Feng really wanted to dig her into his hands. However, Qiao Feng was unwilling to hand over the position of group chairman to such a powerful person.

After all, MGM has just arrived in his hands, and his lack of control over MGM (if he doesn't want to expel people all day as a deterrent), this can be seen from the violation of Aladdin’s propaganda department. When a strong figure like Shirley Lansing becomes the chairman, there will definitely be a disagreement with the boss of Qiao Feng. At that time, it will easily cause the turbulence of the unstable MGM, Qiao Feng does not want to watch In this case.

Another, the price of digging Shirley Lansing is too great. Not only is it necessary to give the chairman of the group, her salary is also an astronomical figure.

The most important thing is that if there is constant friction between Qiao Feng and her after digging, he will have to pay a greater severance payment if he wants to get rid of it.

In the original time and space, the same year Shirley joined Paramount, Diller, the head of 20th Century Fox, resigned because of a conflict with the big boss of 20th Century Fox. Two powerful figures, everyone wanted to be 20 Master of Century Fox.

However, the 20th Century Fox is Murdoch's 20th Century Fox, not the employee Diller.

When Diller showed the will of the owner, Murdoch coldly slapped out a sentence, "There is only one owner of 20th Century Fox, and that is me."

Then he was unwilling to be just a worker, even if he was called a worker emperor, Diller, who was still a worker, left.

To this end, 20th Century Fox and Murdoch paid a severance payment of up to 140 million U.S. dollars.

If Shirley Lansing joining MGM can bring development to MGM without conflicting with herself, Qiao Feng will not be unable to pay the high salary, but for Shirley, a professional manager with many years of senior career. Said that strength is inevitable, and it is impossible not to conflict.

Don't spend a lot of money to dig people out. There was a conflict within two days. When that happens, you will really lose your wife and break the army.

After careful consideration, Qiao Feng felt that an accomplished person like Shirley was not suitable to be poached to take charge of MGM.

The kind of talents who will be in position in the future, but only middle-level talents are the most ideal goal.

After making up his mind, Qiao Feng put this matter aside first, and who should be digging for specific needs can only be determined after multiple investigations.

"I will talk to MGM about the propaganda of the Aladdin Chinese community." Qiao Feng said to Lasset.

Lasai’s characteristic nodded. There is still half a month before the release. At this time, the tilt of the publicity to the Chinese community can still make up for some, and it will achieve no small effect.

"You supervise MGM, I hope that before Aladdin's release, all Chinese communities can see Aladdin's related posters, and all overseas Chinese can know that our movie protagonist Aladdin is from China."

"Mr. Understanding, we will introduce Aladdin's copywriting together with MGM."
