Rebirth Online Entertainment

Chapter [-]: Movie Tycoon

In front of Biyi, who can resist this temptation?

……

United States, MGM Pictures. 【

Aishang Reading Network]

MGM metrr is one of the eight major film companies in Hollywood.MGM Films shot "Gone with the Wind", one of the most outstanding films in film history, created the enduring screen classic 007, created the immortal cartoon characters of cat and mouse, and initiated the establishment of the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Technology.

You know, any one of the above can make this company immortal, not to mention the combination of several myths.MGM's Lion Leo logo was once regarded as a symbol of the United States. Its superstars gathered together and once created the myth of producing a movie every week.The big name of this company is MGM.

At the same time, the famous Academy Award was also created by MGM Film and Television Company.

It's just that this is just the glory of MGM.

Until now, MGM Film and Television Company has suffered losses every year.

Therefore, there is only one comment from the outside world on MGM, either bankruptcy or acquisition.

Obviously, being acquired is far better than going bankrupt.After all, the signboard of MGM, no matter how you say it, is also very valuable.In addition, being acquired can also earn a profit.In this way, MGM executives have made frequent moves recently, and they have contacted Warner, Telescope, Lions Gate... and other consortiums, although they can acquire MGM.Unfortunately, the prices given by these companies are too low.In the end, MGM chose to refuse.

Of course, this one is the same as MGM in history.

If this continues, MGM will eventually go bankrupt in later generations.

However, at this time, there is a slight change in MGM.

"Everyone, what do you think about the future of the company?"

"Mayer," president of MGM Pictures, addressed everyone present.

Speaking of which, Mayer has always been a tycoon in the film industry. He once created the Hollywood system.It's just, it has to be said, that Meyer is too old by now.So old, people don't know whether the brain of this former genius can remain normal.Why is MGM where it is today if it stays normal.

In the past few decades, almost people have forgotten the existence of MGM.

"Mr. Meyer, Sony has recently approached us with an offer to buy and has promised to pay off all our debts."

One of the executive managers reported to Mayer.

"Hmph, Sony hasn't taken a fancy to our video resources."

Although MGM is in decline now, no one can ignore its former glory.This is also inverted, MGM has thousands of classic film resources.And these resources, because many countries around the world broadcast from time to time, and therefore, will provide MGM with a fee of 5 million U.S. dollars every year.

If it weren't for this, it would be impossible for Sony to propose an acquisition.

Obviously, when the executive manager mentioned Sony, several senior executives expressed their dissatisfaction.However, the executive manager was not angry at the dissatisfaction of these people, but sarcastically said, "So, if we are not acquired, are we going to go bankrupt?"

As soon as this sentence was said, the faces of the senior executives who had refuted just now blushed.

Judging from the current situation, the only way for MGM to be acquired is to go.

However, at this time, the aged Meyer stood up.

"Since our establishment in 1924, we have never thought of being acquired."

Meyer is now in his 90s. This old man who wears a cane and is respected wherever he goes, said a passionate word.Then, he looked at his secretary again, "If we look at the current situation, how long can MGM last?"

"One year at most."

"One year."

A year later, when MGM's annual report is released again, MGM Films will definitely go bankrupt.

However, at this time, Mayer did not express disappointment with this number.

"One year is enough."

Everyone is full of doubts about this sentence.

What can you do in a year?

It took MGM decades to save itself, let alone a year.Moreover, announcing one year now does not mean that after one year, MGM will disappear, which is simply a death talisman.However, this Hollywood film tycoon, he said one sentence, enough is enough.

Oh my gosh.

It seems that this former genius is just as the media said, he is old and confused.

Over 90 years old, there will indeed be some confusion.

However, who would have known that Meyer's mind is clearer now.

"Mr. Meyer, do you have any other suggestions?"

At this time, a member of the audience said to him.

In fact, many people want to ask him, but they are too afraid of Mayer's authority.

"Of course, I have thought about it for a long time."

Meyer nodded.

Speaking of which, MGM's brilliance was created by Meyer.

However, the decline of MGM was also created by Meyer.

It's really Meyer for success, and Meyer for failure.

"My suggestion, that is to go to China."

Finally, Meyer voiced his advice.

"China?"

what's the situation.

Why go to China.

It's just that, after a short period of surprise for everyone, after a while, it seems that someone has woken up.

"Mr. Meyer, are you talking about leading MGM to enter the Tang Dynasty film and television base?"

"good."

Meyer cast an admiring glance at the first member to wake up.

"Ah, how is this possible?"

This statement is almost stronger than the discussion brought about by Sony's acquisition just now.

"Mr. Meyer, you should think about it more. You have to know that we are Hollywood, and we are the world's top film company."

"Yes, Mr. Meyer, we can think of other ways, it is not necessary to go to China."

A series of people, etc., objected from time to time.

"No, no, I have made a decision, and no one can stop it."

Meyer shook his head and said in affirmation.

At the same time, he explained again.

"Once upon a time, our MGM created the world's film culture, once upon a time, our MGM created the world's film system, once upon a time, our MGM...we have too many brilliant achievements. But this is all in the past .After 1970, our MGM officially entered the decline. We have spent decades, but still have not reversed our decline...

At this time, Meyer looked very hurt, as if he had been silent in the memory.

But, I kept asking myself, is this our mistake?

No, it's not our fault.

We have the best actors in the world, the best directors in the world, and the best scripts in the world.However, he still lost.Lost to modern technology, lost to visual impact.In the past few decades, we have always believed that movies are things that express a truth, or that they convey a piece of life.However, I'm starting to feel wrong now.

Movies, it's better to return to the essence, which is just a movie.

In the film, you don't need too much superb acting skills, and at the same time, you don't need too much philosophy of life.All you have to do is appeal to as many people as possible.And, by any means.Obviously, in the age of technology, many film companies have found a way out.

They used magical computer special effects to shoot some commercial blockbusters without the slightest story.

Like King Kong, like Zhu Luoji, like Lord of the Rings...

Presumably, at this time, everyone can understand what I am saying.

After speaking, Meyer did not continue.He hoped that his remark would make them understand.

Until a few 10 minutes passed, someone stood up.

"Now is the age of technology. Movies must also enter the camp of technology. I agree with Mr. Meyer's point of view."

Perhaps, when MGM was in glory, it would definitely not come up with such a strategy.

However, now that MGM does not want to change, it can only go bankrupt or be acquired in the end.

Looking at it now, it is obvious that even if Mr. Mayer hangs up, he does not agree to sell the company.

Then, choosing to go to China and join the Tang Dynasty film and television base seems to be a good strategy.

"That's right, I also agree, the impact of the visual effects has completely surpassed the plot."

Another high-level person also nodded in agreement.

"I agree too."

"Okay, it seems that we can only fight to the death."

If you don't fight, you will die. If you fight, you may still survive.

All of a sudden, after thinking about it, many people agreed.

The meeting ended here, and soon, MGM Films communicated with Tang Dynasty Film and Television.

Moreover, Meyer, a film tycoon who is over 90 years old, actually went to China in person.

Naturally, for a movie tycoon like Mayer, his every move will definitely attract the attention of many media.

Especially The Hollywood Reporter.

The newspaper gave a comprehensive report on Mayer's whereabouts.The article pointed out that Hollywood film tycoon Meyer secretly went to China today and went straight to Tang Dynasty Film and Television Company.We really don't know what amazing moves our movie hero will make.

American Films also reported that Mayer's trip to China seemed rather strange after Tang Dynasty Company had just recruited film companies from all over the world.Could it be that MGM wants to join the Tang Dynasty film and television base?This seems like a joke. If so, then, at that time, will the Oscars belong to China or to the United States.

The Academy Award was originally an academy award created by MGM, but later, it became the highest film and television award in the world.However, if it is true as the media speculates, MGM has joined Tang Dynasty Company.Then, the ownership of Oscar has become a big problem.

It's just that many people just laughed off speculation like this.

Because, for most people, they would think that this is impossible.

Yes, just not possible.

Think about it, although MGM is in decline, he is still the king of the film industry after all.In any case, even if the company is acquired by others, it is better than going to China.Furthermore, if this is the case, then Hollywood movies will suffer the greatest crisis ever.

At the same time, they also criticize these disgusting journalist friends, please report some useful news.Don't gossip every day, maybe, Meyer went to China to learn about the advanced film concept of Tang Dynasty Film and Television Company.How to put it, the current focus of the world's film and television is Tang Dynasty film and television.

It is okay for people to go to study and study, and they are not ashamed to ask.After all, as fans of MGM movies, they still don't want MGM to go bankrupt, or eventually disappear.However, these media, how could they know that Meyer's trip to China this time had already made up his mind.

Moreover, when Mayer went to China this time, the first person he wanted to meet was Chen Jiayi.

Although Chen Jiayi seldom cares about movies, no one can underestimate Chen Jia's contribution to movies.Moreover, Chen Jiayi's image has penetrated the world, he is simply the most famous corporate president.The development of Tang Dynasty film and television, the final decision-making power is also this master.Therefore, Meyer didn't see anyone when he arrived in China, but he wanted to see Chen Jiayi.

……

Tang Dynasty Company.

"Mr. Chen, Mayer, the president of MGM, wants to see you."

Secretary Liu Liang said to Chen Jiayi.

"Who is Meyer?"

For Meyer, Chen Jiayi didn't have much to say.

After all, although Chen Jiayi is a movie lover, he is not a pure fan of movies.

The things he explained were all approximate.

Naturally, he didn't know about this Meyer.

However, this does not hinder, because before Mayer, there was an MGM film company.

As one of the eight major film companies in Hollywood, Chen Jiayi still knows it well.Moreover, after Liu Liang briefly introduced MGM and Meyer to Chen Jiayi, Chen Jiayi was completely shocked.Let me go, here is a heavyweight guy, this Meyer is simply the creator of Hollywood.

Although this sentence is a bit exaggerated, it has to be said that Meyer has contributed to Hollywood movies.

Just, what is he here for?

Chen Jiayi was surprised.

However, even if Chen Jiayi didn't know, Chen Jiayi still didn't refuse when the film tycoon wanted to meet him.

Besides, they are all over 90 years old, it would be rude if they don't see each other.

The next day, Chen Jiayi and Mayer met at the Tang Dynasty Group.

"Sure enough, a hero is born as a teenager. It seems that I, an old man, should really retire."

Seeing Chen Jiayi's youth, and looking at his own age, who is about to see death at any time, Meyer became emotional.

"Thank you, but everyone was young once. I think Mr. Meyer attracted the attention of the world when he was young."

Chen Jiayi smiled, accepted Meyer's compliment, and complimented her back.

"Haha, interesting, you know, Chen, you look a lot like when I was young."

As soon as Chen Jia broke into a sweat, this 90-odd American old man is actually so narcissistic, but he didn't want to disturb the old man's bragging, but said, "Well, if this is the case, I Should be happy."

Chen Jiayi's gentlemanly demeanor won Meyer's favor.

However, Meyer came to China not to chat with Chen Jiayi, but to discuss business.Soon, Mayer said, "I heard that Tang Dynasty Company's Tang Dynasty film and television base business has encountered resistance from the Hong Kong film industry, including other mainland entertainment circles."

"Yes, but I believe that such resistance will not last long."

In fact, many film and television companies, including Hong Kong film and television companies, still agree with the Tang Dynasty base's bidding for global film and television companies.The reason they objected was the trade union system of the Tang Dynasty company.That is to say, actors, directors, etc., are incorporated into another group, which will not be affected by the film and television company, and at the same time, they will not sign a contract with the film and television company.

If you really want to sign, it is also a sign, and you are not usually arranged by the film and television company.

"Yes, I also believe that with such a good system, he will eventually get great development."

Meyer agreed with Chen Jiayi's words.The previous history of Hollywood movies, in fact, Mayer's reform of Hollywood also took a long time.For example, his trade union system.However, this is a thing of the past.

"Thank you. However, we have already reached cooperation with film and television companies in other countries. I believe that it won't take long for the Tang Dynasty film and television base to become a film circle that rivals Hollywood."

For the future, full of hope.

"Yeah, but, I think it will take a long time."

"Oh?"

Although Chen Jiayi did not agree with Mayer's point of view, Chen Jiayi did not directly object.

"why?"

"It's very simple. These companies that are joining now cannot be compared with Tang Dynasty Film and Television. They don't even have one-tenth of Tang Dynasty Film and Television. To make such a film and television company become a world super giant, I am afraid that it will take It’s a very long way to go.”

"It seems that what you said is good, but what if there is Tang Dynasty's help?"

"Indeed, with the help of Tang Dynasty Company, these film and television companies may grow rapidly. However, what I want to ask is, how much can you help these companies after all? Your own film and television base, do you still maintain the original system? If so, what do you want this film and television base to do? Under the system, let him grow up spontaneously?"

A series of rhetorical questions surprised Chen Jia.

Sure enough, he is a Hollywood movie tycoon, and the problems he sees are one step further than ordinary people.

That's right, just like what Chen Jiayi did to the Tang Dynasty Group.As long as these companies are put on the right track, Chen Jiayi will not manage too much in the future.But at this time, without Chen Jiayi's management and help, only by establishing the most advanced management system can he continue to maintain his leading position...

The world has created many, many brilliance, but these brilliance did not appear under the advanced management system.

For example, Hollywood, why he has so many classic movies come out.

It's not that he has the most famous director in the world, and it's not that they have the most famous actor in the world.In fact, at a time when Hollywood movies were not famous, he had nothing.It's just that under the perfect film system.In the next few decades, global directors and stars will come in droves.
