There are six major film giants in Hollywood: Time, Imperial, 19th Century, La Quinta, Pan Am, and Monaco.

However, anyone familiar with Hollywood will know that there is another invisible giant: cAA!

In the past nearly a hundred years, competition and cooperation among the six giants have continued throughout. There are no absolute friends and no absolute enemies. Everything is based on the interests of the company.

Some film companies adapted and became today's world-famous film giants; some companies did not adapt to such rules, so they disappeared in the long river of time.

Harrison's eyes were slightly closed, lying on the chair in the office, thinking about the current situation in Hollywood.

The emergence of Maoyan Movies and Timely Movies has once again divided Hollywood into two camps. Maybe the two sides do not regard each other as enemies, but when it comes to the interests of third-party platforms, the other side will definitely not want to do so!

Era, 19th century, Munnar!

Under the skill of Barber, an old fox, he struck first and suddenly attracted the three major Hollywood film giants, which caught Harrison off guard. Even after his suggestion, he quickly established Timely Films to compete with Maoyan Films for movie theaters.

to the market, but it was too late.

Maoyan Movies has become a big trend in the United States and has already established a huge leading advantage, which is beyond the reach of Timely Movies.

Even though Harrison and others have invested heavily in developing timely movies this year, Maoyan Movies is still far ahead in terms of market share. Once a user gets used to a certain online product, their loyalty and stickiness to the product will not change overnight.

"This old fox!"

Harrison opened his eyes and murmured that even he had to admit Barbour's experience and experience in taking the lead and convincing the other three Hollywood giants to join Maoyan Films, even if Imperial, Pan American, and Le Qimei were dismissed by the outside world.

Even the joint establishment of Timely Films, jokingly called the Three Beauties, cannot shake the current influence of Maoyan Films in the American film market.

If Barber hadn't taken the initiative to give up most of his shares to the other three giants, Harrison was absolutely confident that Timely Films would soon surpass Maoyan Films, but it seems difficult now.

At least with the existence of these three giants, some of Harrison's methods lost their effectiveness and he was unable to take action at all.

This is exactly what Barber hopes to see after giving up a majority of his shares in American Maoyan Films, sharing the benefits while also sharing the risks.

I believe that in order to prevent Maoyan Movies from falling, these three giants will definitely try their best to protect Maoyan Movies.

You know, that’s 65% of the shares!

As far as Harrison knows, American Maoyan Films gave up 65% of its shares at once, while Oriental DreamWorks only holds 35%. And according to some reliable information, Oriental DreamWorks' shares will be diluted and may drop to

About 25%.

If the news is really true, then even if the outside world uses Chinese capital as an excuse to invade the United States, it will not work.

Nothing works even now.

The opponent really spent a lot of money!

Thinking of this, Harrison couldn't help but sit up straight, touched his chin, and thought that Barbour must have had a problem with that Chinese talent for spending so much money, or that Barbour's decision had gained the approval of that Chinese talent.

Otherwise, Barber would never have been so generous.

Give up 65% of the shares at once.

But think about it, for that Chinese talent, it is completely impossible to completely control the e-commerce market of the American film market.

Moreover, Hollywood rules do not allow such a company to appear.

If the vast majority of the shares of Maoyan Films were in the hands of a Chinese person, it is estimated that everyone in Hollywood would not be able to sleep peacefully, for fear that when they wake up, their movies will be banned from Maoyan Films.

Now that Barber is doing this, in this era, the 19th century, the three families of Mona and others feel stoned and feel relieved.

Harrison guessed a little deeper. Maybe that Chinese talent never thought about completely controlling Maoyan Movies in the United States. As long as it had enough voice, it would be enough.

If this is really the case, then China’s talent cannot be underestimated.

Not only is the movie well-made, but he also has such a sharp vision in business, plus Barber is on hand to help check for omissions and fill in the gaps. The future of Oriental DreamWorks in the United States is really limitless!

When he thought of this, Harrison's eyes narrowed slightly, which he would never allow.

Especially after Barber left and Coakley took over, the company's situation became worse and worse. I heard that the company's financial losses this year were huge. If this continues, Pan Am may soon fall from its position as a giant.

Then Oriental DreamWorks, under Barbour's guidance, is likely to devour the resources left by Pan American, which will create greater variables.

——Dong dong.

Harrison tapped his fingers on the table. He always had a strong style and would never allow this situation to happen that was beyond his control. It seemed that it was necessary to communicate with the CAA.

If possible, CAA can also have a role in the movie industry.

At the same time, he is also considering whether to accept a Wall Street capital to invest in Timely Films to solve the funding problem.

Harrison can bear a loss of 30 million yuan in one quarter, but he will never accept a long-term loss, even if it is shared by other companies.

The long-term losses of Timely Films will inevitably drag down the development of Dimei. Especially at this moment, when the company does not progress or regresses, he must be more vigilant and beware of the old fox Oriental DreamWorks and Barber.

Naturally, I don't want Di Mei to be affected in any way.

At this time, a staff member knocked on the door.

Harrison said, "Come in."

"Mr. President, here are the current box office statistics of this week's movie market." The staff handed Harrison a file.

After Harrison opened it and looked at it carefully for a while, his face became solemn, and then he waved his hand to signal his men to go out. After the door was closed, he looked down at the document for a while and muttered: "It's incredible."

According to the box office statistics of domestic movies in the United States this week, not surprisingly, Mona ranked first.

Dimei ranks second!

Harrison has no idea about this. The Christmas period is the highlight of the American film market, and basically every film company has plans for the Christmas period.

No matter which film is ranked first among Monotype and Dimei, it will not be a surprise.

But the third-ranked film surprised Harrison.

The Chinese-language film "Liu Changqing: Top Gun" ranked third in the U.S. movie weekly box office rankings with a box office of 87 million yuan, which really shocked Harrison.

It's simply incredible.

Harrison couldn't help but think that he had just seen advertisements for this Chinese-language film on the Internet, and they were overwhelmingly on the Internet.

I didn't feel it before, but now that I think about it, something seems wrong.

In connection with the series of actions Barber had made in Hollywood not long ago, he also used his connections to cooperate with the NBA. In an important game, he had the Chinese star in a live sword dance, which caused a sensation in the entire United States.

The fame of this film.

Now it seems that the old fox's publicity plan must have been successful.

It's just that Harrison didn't expect that it has been a week since the movie was released, and the other party is still carrying out carpet bombing of advertisements. Obviously, the other party is not satisfied with the current box office results.

Harrison shook his head, it was too late to stop the opponent's box office now.

As for those little tricks and tricks, he dismissed them. His opponent was Barber, an old fox. How could he let people catch his pigtails?

Seeing this box office statistics, Harrison became more and more eager to deal with Oriental DreamWorks.

Let’s also count the recent copyright concession of “Superman”.

That means all the old and new grudges are taken into account.

He continued to look at the box office data. After scanning the first ten places, he didn't find the name Pan Am. He couldn't believe it.

It wasn't until the 14th place that I saw Pan American's film, which had a weekly box office of 12 million yuan, an extremely miserable figure.

Based on the information he knew, Pan Am's investment in this Christmas film would definitely not be less than 100 million yuan. Such a huge investment would definitely be in vain based on this box office data.

Harrison couldn't help but frown deeply, worried about Pan America's situation. At least now Pan America needs this ally.

The building that houses Pan American Entertainment.

--Bang.

——Wow.

There was the sound of glass being smashed in Coakley's office.

He put his hands on his hips, furious, walking back and forth in front of a row of people, and roared: "You bunch of trash, I spent 100 million yuan to let you make such a movie. Not only did it fail at the box office, but it also attracted...

With so much negative news, my face has been completely embarrassed by you."

Just after the people below showed Coakley this week's box office statistics, the uncontrollable anger in his heart completely exploded.

He immediately summoned several of his closest confidants and the director of the film and scolded him fiercely to vent his anger.

In fact, he has been in an irritable mood recently.

Because of the "Liu Changqing" incident, Coakley was so embarrassed that he was disgraced abroad and even attracted the anger of his colleagues in Hollywood. He spent a lot of money to settle the matter.

What he didn't expect now is that with the disastrous failure at the box office, he would become furious again.

At this moment, a lighting engineer from the crew came out and said to Coakley with disdain: "Shut up, you idiot. If you hadn't been giving random instructions, how could something like this have happened? I'm not going to do this anymore.

, and please pay me your salary for the past few days, otherwise I don’t mind going to the court and the labor union.”

Not many people from the crew came today. Apart from the director, he was the only lighting engineer.

There is no way, who told him to have a contractual relationship with Pan Am, but now it seems that the relationship between the two parties has come to an end.

Anyway, after filming this movie, his contract has expired, so he might as well terminate it quickly to avoid being wronged here.

Before Coakley could speak, the lighting engineer gave Coakley a middle finger gesture, laughed loudly, opened the door and left.

Seeing this scene, Coakley's lips trembled and he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
