Heads Up Hollywood

Tang En's strong attitude as always made all the executives see the unparalleled fortitude of this young big boss once again.

Especially Bill McNick.

Asking the Film and Television Entertainment Department to subsidize Netflix is ​​tantamount to sharing the profits of the Film and Television Entertainment Department with Netflix.

The profit has decreased, and the management of the film and television entertainment department will naturally receive less dividends.

However, this was Tang En's decision, who would dare to object?

If it's a new department like the Ministry of Tourism, Vacation and Consumer Products, it's okay to say that Tang En's authority is not sufficient.

But the film and television entertainment department is different.

Tang En started his career from movies.

In the film and television entertainment department, the nominal CEO is Bill McNick, but everyone knows that Tang En's words here are imperial decrees, and they must be obeyed unconditionally.

This is very different from the management of many other departments who will express their personal opinions and even object from time to time.

Tang En has already decided to ask the Ministry of Film and Television Entertainment to subsidize Netflix to meet the income and expenditure standard of Netflix's price reduction to 16 US dollars monthly subscription fee.

As long as the new global legal department passes the review and does not involve factors such as "market dumping", "vicious competition", and "price war", this decree will be implemented without hesitation.

In the conference room, many executives were a little silent.

Even if it is a silent tribute to Blockbuster.

"Since everyone has no objection, let's make this decision. It takes one month to prepare. Before December, Netflix will start to cut prices and launch a monthly subscription policy of 16 dollars!"

Tang En said with a smile, he didn't look like a decisive and ruthless person at all.

Blockbuster is expected to officially launch a $16 monthly subscription system in mid-November, and Netflix will respond immediately.

Slap me hard!

Reed Hastings is in a good mood. He tried to sell Netflix to Blockbuster and was... humiliated.

From entering the Baishida Building to being kicked out, it took no more than 15 minutes.

Now, the opportunity finally came.

Tang En made up his mind to solve Blockbuster!

This is definitely revenge, a snow for his shame back then!

"The Blockbuster is over!"

Not to mention how comfortable Reed Hastings was, he looked at Tang En with more respect.

Tang En returned with a smile, "You said that Netflix will be able to take care of its own profits and losses if it reaches 15 million users. Do you think...how many years will it take?"

"this……"

Reed Hastings had some trouble.

He wants to say five years.

But this is too long.

Look at the speed of development of the New Global Group, almost every day.

If Netflix dared to propose a five-year plan, it would have to be laughed out of hand by colleagues.

Netflix enjoys so many high-quality resources of the group, but it is shameful to come up with such a crappy five-year plan.

In contrast, look at the sta TV network, how amazing is the development speed?

Since being acquired by Tang En, within 3 years, the number of users of STA TV network has increased from 3 million to 17 million!

There are more users than the two major TV networks hbo and sho!

In particular, Starz's subscription fee is the highest in the United States, and it is a few cents higher than ESPN.

Starz is already a must-have TV station for the elite class in the United States.

But in terms of resource occupation, the sta TV network is far less than Netflix.

Seeing Reed Hastings' embarrassed face, Kevin Turner hurriedly said: "I don't think this time will be too long, it only takes three years! Within three years, the number of Netflix users can reach 15 million !"

He is a well-respected general by Tang En's side, even if the guarantee is wrong, there will be no big loss.

Let's save face first.

Tang En took a deep look at him, shook his head and smiled.

In fact, he knows that the key factors that restrict the number of Netflix users are not Netflix's price, technology, and promotion, but the objective conditions of Internet speed!

Only when the network speed breaks through from narrowband to broadband, will Internet users show an explosive growth.

With more Internet users, Netflix's users will naturally increase.

Even if many people in the United States know Netflix's reputation, they stay away from it because it is an Internet platform.

As Kevin Turner said before, he has to wait for the arrival of the eb2.0 era.

"Okay, that's the deal with Blockbuster. Everyone will write a report later. Next, let's talk about the second thing." Tang En sat at the head of the long table with extraordinary momentum.

"The second thing?"

Everyone was a little puzzled.

Isn't the topic of today's meeting just to discuss the response to Blockbuster?

Haven't heard of other things?

Tang En didn't surprise everyone for too long, and said slowly: "Bestida dares to provoke, we will fight back mercilessly without mercy! But, everyone, don't forget that Lei Shidong is also indispensable in this matter." shadow!"

The voice fell.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Redstone?

What's happening here?

Are you going to attack Lei Shidong again?

In fact, everyone knows that although Blockbuster has divested from Viacom, Redstone still has a huge influence within Blockbuster.

Blockbuster wants to implement a monthly membership subscription system, but without Lei Shidong's permission, the feasibility is very low.

It's just... he is Lei Shidong after all!

Previously, the New Universal Group joined forces with Disney to fight against Viacom.

This time, is Tang En going to challenge Lei Shidong alone?

It's dangerous!

Viacom is a skinny camel bigger than a horse, this is not Blockbuster!

Tang En ignored everyone's astonished expressions, and said calmly: "When the meeting started, everyone heard Barry's words. He called Lei Shidong to communicate about Blockbuster, but he was rejected."

Barry Diller nodded and said, "That's right, his attitude is very firm."

Tang En clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "That's the reason! Lei Shidong rejected our reasonable proposal, and instead worked together with Blockbuster, so we must be prepared and wait for our counterattack! We have to deal with Blockbuster. Let's start, and we can't be soft on Lei Shidong, the mastermind behind the scenes!"

Robert Iger frowned. To be honest, he really didn't think it would be beneficial to tear up his face with Lei Shidong, so he asked hesitantly, "Twain, what do you want to do?"

Tang En said: "If a company wants to be recognized by the market, in the general impression, it only needs to have enough income and enough profits. However, for a great company, it is far from enough to be profitable! It must be a two-pronged approach, the left hand Profit, justice with the right hand, hard with both hands!"

"Profit left and right, justice right?"

Everyone listened and nodded again and again.

Only companies that uphold justice and continue to promote the world's mainstream values ​​can go far in the long run.

"Is it justice to overthrow Redstone?" Tosca Musk couldn't help asking.

Tang En smiled at her, "Lei Shidong has many weaknesses, but none that can cause public outrage. But...his subordinates may not be sure. George, tell me about your report."

At this time, George Paxton, who had been silent for a whole round, spoke up. He said: "Les Moonves, vice president of Viacom Group and CEO of cbs, was involved in more than 20 sexual assaults. , Sexual harassment of female employees."

Although there are not many words, there is thunder on the ground!

Les Moonves!

Good guy, Tang En is ruthless enough!

If the incident is true, then Viacom's stock price may fall off a cliff.

Especially recently, when Redstone was busy firing Viacom president Mayer Camasin.

This will pay a large liquidated damages and cause turmoil.

If Dunn releases such explosive news after the dismissal is completed, Viacom will inevitably be in chaos, which will lead to a sharp drop in the stock price.

Everyone knew that Tang En, his assistant, had been helping him with some shady work.

But I didn't expect that it would be so amazing as soon as I shot it!

Tang En looked around at everyone's expressions, and said calmly: "The reason why I tell you this is to let you have a mental preparation and pay attention to maintaining the company's propaganda. As I said, we must uphold justice. What is this justice? ?”

Bill McNick said: "Rose Films."

Tang En said loudly: "That's right! To put it bluntly, it's feminism! After racial equality, feminism will be the next hot trend in the world. We can't stand on the wrong side in this big wave. Not only can't we stand on the wrong side , we have to take advantage of the trend and let the New Universal Group become the vanguard of feminism in the entertainment circle!"

"I'm not afraid to tell everyone that starting next year, I will cooperate with feminist groups to launch a series of powerful actions to eliminate some cancers in the media and entertainment circles, including Les Moonves! Whether you're a feminist or not, sexual assault and harassment are always shameful mistakes!"

"Here is also a warning to you. Inside New Universal, there are many female employees, especially Rose Films, which mainly promotes feminist works. All employees are female. I hope you can stick to the bottom line of being a human being and don't do something illegal. behavior. If you want to maintain justice in the entertainment industry, you must first discipline yourself!"

Tang En's words did not fully explain.

But there are smart people here.

Everyone can see it.

Tang En is playing a big game of chess.

He wants to use the feminism that is slowly rising to plan greater interests for the New Global Group!

Although this benefit is not real wealth, but having a strong reputation and a good reputation is equivalent to having wealth!

Barry Diller immediately reacted to Tang En's words, and said in a deep voice: "That's right, we've heard too much about things in the entertainment industry! Since New Universal wants to set a new benchmark and create a new pattern, we must There must be restraint on women's issues! The bad habits of the past must never reappear! Don't blame me for not being sympathetic. Anyone who dares to harass female employees within the company will be fired! This article can be written into every employee in the contract!"

Looking at the upright Barry Diller, the others all felt contemptuous and cursed in their hearts.

nonsense!

Of course you don't care anymore, what you like is a man!

Are there few male models around you?
