Heads Up Hollywood

Every year, The Hollywood Reporter publishes a list of the top 100 Hollywood powerhouses.

Last year, Tang En ranked No. 4 on the list.

This year, as the chairman of the New Universal Group, Tang En successfully climbed to the top undisputedly!

Ranked No. 2 is the chairman and CEO of AOL Time Warner Richard Parsons.

Michael Eisner, head of Disney, ranked third;

Michael Ovitz, founder of Legendary Pictures, ranked No. 4;

Summer Redstone, Viacom's big boss, came in fifth.

It is worth mentioning that... the sixth place is the CEO of New Universal, Barry Diller, the head of the New Universal Film and Television Entertainment Department, Bill McNick, ranked ninth, the vice president of the New Universal Film and Television Entertainment Department, New Universal Women Shirley Lansing, director of the Rights Protection Foundation, ranked 12th, Nina Jacobson, head of Marvel Studios, ranked 13th, and John Last, head of Pixar, ranked 16th...

Shirley Lansing and Nina Jacobson are also the only two women in the top 20 of this list.

In this list, the top 30 are basically controlled by the top executives of major entertainment media companies.

In terms of actors, the highest ranking is Keanu Reeves, ranking 8th.

For directors, the highest-ranked director is Peter Jackson at No. 11. …

Nominally, it is a ranking list of power, but in fact, it is more of a ranking list of influence. For example, an actor like Keanu Reeves really has no power, but "The Matrix 2" and "The Matrix 3" released this year made him the most influential actor worthy of the name this year.

From this list, we can see the pattern of Hollywood today.

The strong rise of New Global is an irreversible historical trend!

Ted Turner's attempt to intimidate Twain with his industry prestige over the past few decades is undoubtedly a dream come true!

"Ted... It's better not to provoke him. Lei Shidong's side hasn't really settled down yet, so it's not easy to cause problems." Barry Diller heard about Tang En's matter and advised him cautiously.

Tang En said speechlessly: "You think I want to provoke him? It's because he doesn't know what to do. Seeing that "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is a big hit, while "The Chronicles of Narnia 2" is poor at the box office, he feels unbalanced. "

"What does he want?"

Barry Diller asked softly.

In his opinion, if the other party's request is not too much, then agree to it.

Anyway, the New Global family has a big business now, and it doesn't care about the meager benefits. Although the year-end summary report has not been completed, it is roughly estimated that the pre-tax profit of New Universal this year... is likely to reach 4 billion US dollars!

With such profits, not to mention Viacom and Disney, even AOL Time Warner has relatively high capital!

Unexpectedly, Tang En waved his hands and said lazily: "I don't know!"

Barry Diller thought he had misheard, "What?"

Tang En said angrily: "I told you, I don't know!"

"What's the meaning?"

Barry Diller didn't react.

Tang En said coldly: "Isn't Ted Turner jealous because he saw that we made too much money, and wanted to come here to take advantage of it with a shy face? Shameless! There is no way to take advantage of me!"

With a black line on his forehead, Barry Diller said earnestly, "Twain, sometimes, one more thing is worse than one less thing. If you spend a little money, you can buy peace, and it's a good deal..."

"Stop!" Tang En was very dissatisfied with this argument. "Barry, we are a joint-stock company. As the company's decision-makers, we must consider the interests of all shareholders! We cannot sell the interests of shareholders!"

Barry Diller is pissed.

This Tang En is really overbearing.

What shareholder interests?

You account for more than 85% of the shares. Which shareholder dares to oppose your ambition?

It's not that you don't want to back down.

Although he knew that Tang En's character had always been like this, never backing down and being strong to the end, Barry Diller still wanted to give it a try, and said in a low voice: "Tang En, you have to understand that President Bush Jr. is now in power."

"so what?"

"Haven't you heard? Ted Turner has a very close relationship with the Bush family."

"oh."

Tang En nodded lightly.

Barry Diller persuaded: "Even if we have no problems ourselves, but being targeted by the White House is somewhat of a problem."

"President Bush Jr...."

The corner of Dunn's mouth twitched, a little amused, "Don't worry, Barry. Ted Turner has a lot to do with it, so there's nothing I can do about it. President Bush Jr.... I'll take care of it."

Barry Diller raised his eyebrows, "You have a good relationship with him?"

"A Beautiful Mind" directed by Tang En was screened at the White House.

President Bush Jr.'s family watched with him.

"It's not good, but... I have a way!"

Tang En pointed to his head, his face was glowing red, full of confidence.

Barry Diller nodded slightly, and said nothing, "If that's the case, then it's nothing. After Ted Turner promoted the merger of Time Warner and AOL, his influence within Time Warner has been far away. That's so big. Although he is still the vice chairman, he is already semi-retired. His real influence is still the White House. As long as this problem can be solved, there is no need to be afraid of him."

Tang En said firmly: "Don't worry, the White House... I can handle it!"

"Well, one more thing, I want to apply for someone."

After finishing the business, Barry Diller began to talk about his work.

"who?"

"Carol Melton."

A look of suspicion flashed across Tang En's face.

He has never heard of this person.

Barry Diller said: "In the early years, he was the legal adviser to the chairman of the FCC, and later joined Time Warner as the vice president of the Office of Public Policy. Six years ago, he moved to Viacom as a government relations Executive Vice President of the Division. With the departure of Mel Carmasin, his time at Viacom is coming to an end."

Tang En understood it as soon as he heard it.

Barry Diller didn't believe in himself. He wanted to find a master who was responsible for dealing with the government.

"Our company doesn't have a government relations department, does it?"

"Yes, I brought him here to build this department. New Global is getting bigger and bigger, and it will deal with the government more and more. It is necessary to create such a department. It is only managed by the Law Department. Too much volume and not professional enough."

Tang En nodded, and said honestly: "You decide, I don't know as much as you do about company management."

Barry Diller smiled, "If I had given another reason, you would have understood."

"What?"

"Time Warner is approaching him about poaching him as executive vice president for public policy."

Sure enough, Tang En's face changed, and he said anxiously: "Why didn't you say it earlier? We must dig it out! Let's give Ted Turner some eye drops!"

...

'Threesomes' wraps up, and Penelope Cruz is back.

The first thing is to find Tang En.

"I heard you're snubbing my sister?"

Penelope Cruz had a very good relationship with Tang En, and when he saw him, he became angrily angry.

"Why? I'm very good to Monica, I'll let you die!" Tang En looked innocent, looking very wronged.

Penelope Cruz snorted softly, "Do you think it's useful? My sister told me that you haven't been to her place for half a month!"

This is true.

During the recent days, Tang En was immersed in the tenderness of Miranda Kerr and Megan Gale, unable to extricate himself.

At the beginning, Megan Gale and Miranda Kerr were not familiar enough, and Tang En didn't feel much about it.

After the two of them got acquainted with each other, they showed an unrivaled charm.

After going to bed, these two Australian beauties looked like Lala, the coquettishness and seductive charm that radiated from the inside out, simply fascinated Tang En.

Although Monica Cruz is also a new love, it really can't compare to the enjoyment these two supermodels brought to Tang En.

Of course, Tang En couldn't say this directly, he could only say perfunctorily: "That's right, Miranda...she is an Australian model and my girlfriend, it doesn't matter. The point is, once we played a little exciting As a result, I accidentally injured her rectal mucosa. During this time, I have been taking care of her."

Penelope Cruz looked at Tang En with a strange expression, and pouted repeatedly: "The rectum...was injured? Is it that serious?"

"Yes! I went to the hospital for examination!"

"Why am I okay?"

Tang En laughed, stepped forward and hugged her, "You are amazing!"

"Hmph!" Penelope Cruz gave him a coquettish look, "I don't care anyway, now that I'm back, you have to treat our sisters better. Monica just came to the United States not long ago, and I entrusted you to take care of her. Are you so cold?"

Tang En promised: "Don't worry about it, can I not give you your face? I will go over today and have a good reunion with you two sisters."

Penelope Cruz pouted her nose charmingly, and said softly, "You'll be good if you get the cheap!"

"Who is it?"

"Hey, we two sisters will accompany you together, and you still look reluctant."

Tang En said solemnly: "How is it possible? For the past three months, I have been thinking about you every day."

Penelope Cruz gave him a big roll of his eyes, and snorted coquettishly, "I don't know you yet? I must be thinking about putting the two of us sisters on the bed together to be happy."

"Hey, I'm mainly curious."

"Curious? Don't tell me, you haven't dated sisters before."

Tang En thought for a while and said: "I tried a pair of sisters Zooey Deschanel and her sister Emily Deschanel before, but they are far from your sisters. You two sisters, but A pair of peerless beauties, why don't you... stay by my side for a few more years? I'm leaving Villa No. 2 in King's Landing for you to live in, which is the half-mountain manor where we lived together before."

"I know." Penelope Cruz giggled, leaned over and blew in his ear, "Two more years with you, is that enough? Or...three years?"
