Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang
Chapter 925
Are you?" Qiao Feng asked the white male suspiciously.
"I'm Robert Iger, you just call me Iger." The man introduced himself with a smile.
"Iger, what are you calling me to talk about?" Qiao Feng asked when he looked at this familiar man.
"It was my wife who interviewed Mr. Joe just now," Iger said.
Qiao Feng turned his head and glanced at the female reporter named Willow Bay, and then at Robert Iger, his eyes were wary, and his mouth was half tentative and half joking: "Your wife is very beautiful."
Qiao Feng first praised, and then asked: "So, you are because I talked with your wife for too long, are you angry?"
"No, no." Robert Egger laughed and waved his hand: "Of course not."
"Is that?" Hearing that Iger was not jealous and wanted to beat himself up, Qiao Feng relieved his guard and said, "What is that?"
"Does Mr. Joe really think that Disney will succeed and Eisner will lose and Eisner?" Iger thinks that Qiao Feng is a person who thinks too much, and doesn't want him to continue to misunderstand him, so he chose to get straight to the point.
Qiao Feng did not answer Robert Iger’s question, but instead asked: "Iger, you seem to care about Mr. Eisner? Do you know him?"
"Yes. I joined the ABC in 1974, and Mr. Eisner led us to make a profit during that time." Iger said with recollection.
Oh, Qiao Feng understands. Feelings. Robert Iger is an old subordinate of Eisner, and not an old subordinate in the general sense.
This is an old subordinate who has witnessed Eisner's turn for the cloud and the rain, revitalizing a troubled company and bringing it back to the top.
In his experience, there is Eisner's glory.
No wonder he cares about his criticism of Eisner.
Knowing the relationship between Robert Iger and Eisner in front of him, Qiao Feng felt that Robert Iger must have come to fight the injustice for his old boss Eisner.
Therefore, Qiao Feng’s attitude suddenly changed, and he faintly answered Iger’s previous question: “Yes. I think the existence of Eisner in the future will cause major problems for Disney.”
"Why?" Robert Egger asked.
Ok?
Robert Iger's attitude made Qiao Feng a little puzzled, why didn't he rush to refute himself?
Is it because you want to let yourself talk more, and find reasons to fight back in many ways?
do not care.
"Iger, Eisner has been in charge of abc for many years, don't you think he is very much like a dictator, he must take care of everything, and no opposition is allowed?" Qiao Feng was too lazy to think and asked directly and bluntly Tao.
Robert Iger was silent. Although he didn't want to admit it, what Qiao Feng said was the truth. But no one who has worked with Eisner would think that he is a good cooperative person who can hear the opinions of others.
A tyrant, a dictator, is the shiny business card that everyone knows to put on Eisner.
How dictatorial is he?
For example, when I was in abc, everything in the company was taken care of, and Eisner agreed to every detail.
He pays attention to every detail, from theater performances, TV commercials on TV stations to the costumes worn by the actors.
In the design of the hotel, he even personally selected every piece of furniture and discussed with every painter when he was making TV shows in the station.
Almost no entertainment tycoon would like him to intervene in the daily program schedule of the TV station, but Eisner just likes to fully enjoy this feeling of power.
Of course, Iger knew that Eisner didn't distrust his subordinates, he just liked the feeling that he was the center of attention too much, and he didn't want to be robbed of the limelight at all.
He relies on and loves the team, claiming that he particularly likes being surrounded by a group of outstanding talents. In fact, all he likes is the atmosphere of the stars Gongyue.
Thinking of Eisner's various things, Iger nodded silently, acknowledging Qiao Feng's point of view.
After just recording a two-hour show with Iger’s wife and talking freely, Qiao Feng opened the chatterbox again.
He didn't bother to care what Robert Iger wanted to stop him?
Just like when talking with Robert Iger’s wife, Qiao Feng wanted to continue to vomit quickly.
He is not saying that he is worried about the development of Disney, he wants to wake up Eisner through others' words.
He is not stupid.
He just saw that Eisner was too unpleasant, and if he didn't sneer at Eisner, Qiao Feng's heart would be unhappy.
"I have to admit that when a company encounters difficulties, it is a great thing to have a strong and capable leader.
Under the leadership of a strong leader, the company's strength can be used in one place. It can suppress all different opinions and greatly improve efficiency.
However, that is only the reason in specific difficult situations.
This is why Eisner can become the savior of big companies three times.
However, when the company is on the right track and everything is normal, if the leader is still like this, it will easily go wrong.
At that time, everyone was shrouded in his thoughts and lost their independent creativity.
For an entertainment company, creativity is vitality. When there is no creativity, the vitality of the company will weaken or even be lost.
If you don’t want this day to come, Disney’s only thing to do is to kick Eisner out."
Speaking of this, Qiao Feng thought of Barry Diller again.
This person's experience is almost exactly the same as Eisner.
The same career started from the savior of abc, even more legendary than Eisner.
When Diller was in his twenties, he became the assistant to the general manager of ABC. In ABC, he invented two long-lasting broadcasting modes of TV series and TV movies.
At the age of 32, he entered Paramount Pictures, which was facing bankruptcy, and successfully saved Paramount by launching box office bombs such as "Star Trek" and "Indiana Jones".
At the age of 42, he went to the embarrassing 20th Century Fox Film Company, and co-founded Fox Broadcasting Company with Rupert Murdoch, and in just a few years, it became the fourth largest television network in the United States.
It can be said that Eisner is almost stepping on Diller's footsteps before walking.
Diller left abc with his front foot, and Eisner joined abc with his back foot.
When Eisner joined Paramount, Diller was already Paramount’s CEO.
This situation reached the watershed in 1984.
In 1984, Diller was asked by Paramount’s boss to fire his deputy Eisner. Diller argued for eight hours, but he left.
Then he left and joined Twentieth Century Fox.
And the subordinate who was protected by him also left afterwards, but it was Disney who joined.
These two can be said to be in the same line.
The same arrogance, the same dictatorship, the same super-control desire.
Diller’s former subordinates described him this way: He treats senior managers like a tie. You can't control it. No matter how good you are, you will be finished after a week in Diller's company.
Of course, the result of such a similar character is the same. One was kicked out of Twentieth Century Fox by Murdoch, and the other lasted longer, but it was inevitably kicked out by Disney.
