Rebirth In Hollywood - Chapter 842
When the time came to the end of April, with the cooperation of Walt Disney, the pressure faced by News Corporation was suddenly reduced. They split into News Corporation, which is dominated by print media, and Fox Group, which is dominated by the film and television industry. The action is also being carried out in an orderly manner, and without Disney fanning the flames behind the scenes, the pressure from the political circles of the United Kingdom and the United States has also been much less, especially their active splitting behavior has also met the interests of many people in London and Washington. .
What remains unchanged is that the internal struggle of News Corporation is still fierce. Murdoch’s sons and daughters are ready to move. In the next few years, the battle for production will be a curse that plagues News Corporation and Fox Group. After the two companies are separated, Murdoch will also It’s impossible to behave like before.
On April 25, the Los Angeles District Court ruled that Anthony Pelicano was convicted of 78 counts of wiretapping, computer fraud, and wire fraud, and sentenced to 25 years in prison.
The “eavesdropping door” incident that made everyone in danger of Hollywood stars come to an end, Hollywood nightmare awakened.
Anthony Pellicano is a smart man who did not choose to appeal. He was silent in the face of the media and repeatedly stated that he would never betray his customers or sell his story. The secret is always a secret.
This is a very wise approach. If he trades with the media, many people will find a way to shut his mouth completely, otherwise Michael Douglas’s son in prison will be his sign for the previous car.
New York [长][Feng Mian, the editor-in-chief and several editors of the New York Post will also face more than ten years of imprisonment. They were completely abandoned by News Corporation and naturally became Murdoch used to eliminate Switzerland. Enxin’s angry scapegoat.
In London, although James Murdoch was exempted from prosecution, he was deported by the British government and declared him an “unpopular person.” Murdoch’s youngest son had no connection with the UK and could only return to New York. And this is exactly the situation that Ryan wants. In the battle for property within the Murdoch family, one party has been added, and it will be more intense and beautiful in the future.
James Murdoch was able to get out of the prison, and Murdoch’s goddaughter Rebecca Brooks became the scapegoat for Britain’s ‘wiretapping the door’, and she would face at least 15 years in prison.
Subsequently, the Fox Group took the initiative to expose a list, claiming that professional film critics including Roger Albert, David Denby, jr Jones and other professional film critics have been attacked by the former Tom of the 20th Century Fox in the attack on “Avatar”. At Rothman’s instructions, the Fox Group has dismissed Tom Rothman from all positions. And sincerely apologize to the “Avatar” crew for this matter.
The former well-known film critics would certainly not admit it, but the Fox Group showed a bill and transfer list, in which seven-figure money was transferred to Roger Albert’s studio account. Not only that, in the 20th century. Fox also exposed his private dealings with professional film critics such as Roger Albert in the 1910s.
Yes, this was Ryan’s request, and it was also Murdoch deliberately. After these news were exposed, most of the public’s attention was shifted to film critics. To a considerable extent, it has weakened the pressure faced by News Corp.
Professional film critics have once again become the center of the film industry, but unfortunately their reputation has become inaudible.
“It turns out that they haven’t even achieved relative justice…”
“I will never trust film critics anymore.”
“Sure enough, like Ryan and James Cameron said, professional film critics are a group of greedy vampires!”
The sentiment on the Internet is exciting. Professional film critics are directly equated with liars, assholes, and disgusting vampires.
A profession that once was able to stir up the film market has completely embarked on the sunset. The profession of professional film critics has become a place that has been cast aside by the public, and the future will inevitably be the film era of public comment.
Also in this month. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences also convened a press conference to announce the cancellation of the membership of a group of film and television critics led by Roger Albert and David Denby, and claimed that they are characters that Oscars would never welcome.
This is extremely rare in the history of the college. Professional film critics headed by Roger Albert can be regarded as written into the history of Hollywood.
Maybe it was stimulated by the continuous blows, or maybe the old disease relapsed. A few days later, Roger Albert’s condition suddenly worsened, but in one night, he said goodbye to the world.
To Roger Albert’s family, thousands of fans attended Roger Albert’s funeral, but the scene at the funeral made them shocked and angry. The vast majority of fans reacted to Luo. Jay Albert gave a thumbs up, but the direction of the thumb was toward the ground!
Among them, the words written on Optimus Prime posters held high by some “Transformers” fans most appropriately reflect the perception of Roger Albert by ordinary fans.
“You never mind using the most vicious language to attack the results of his years of hard work. You are like an insatiable mosquito. In the most dirty and despicable way, you lie down on others and **** blood. Laugh at the person who provided you with blood!”
Of course, this is the spontaneous behavior of movie fans. Even if Ryan and Disney have time, they will not continue to care about such a group of small people, a group of people destined to be nailed to the stigma of North American film history.
After the official acquisition of Lucasfilm, Walt Disney ushered in good news one after another.
After nearly half a year of screening, the North American box office of “Avatar” officially exceeded US$800 million, and it was downgraded from North America with US$811.13 million. In terms of global box office, the terrifying figure of US$3 billion is not the end. In some remote countries and regions, the last bit of profit is slowly harvested.
As a follower of “Avatar”, “Alice in Wonderland”‘s North American box office exceeded 350 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office easily passed the 1 billion U.S. dollar threshold.
In short, stimulated by this series of good news, Disney’s shares have risen several times. By the end of April, Disney’s overall market value has risen to more than 103 billion US dollars, and it has firmly established the world’s largest media market by its absolute advantage. The throne of the group.
On the other side of News Corp. and Fox Group, although they have retained their vitality, they are in trouble. If it were placed in the 1960s and 1970s, several of Murdoch’s sons and daughters would have to buy murder.
After eating Lucasfilm, Disney will certainly not abandon the “Star Wars” series, and the preliminary preparations for the seventh “Star Wars” movie will soon begin.
Most of Lucasfilm is high-quality assets such as Industrial Light and Magic and Skywalker sound effects, but there are also tasteless departments such as Lucas Animation and Lucas Games. Under the promotion of Ryan, Lucasfilm On the basis of retaining certainty, the industry also optimized the industry. Lucas Animation and Lucas Games were sold to Summit Entertainment by Disney for a package price of US$95 million.
The animation about “Star Wars” was transferred to DreamWorks Animation Studio.
Ryan himself and Walt Disney are undoubtedly the winners of this war. Not only did they successfully weaken the strongest competitor, Disney also got what they wanted. His own more than a dozen foundations, even through short news The group’s stock received a huge account.
“Dad! Daddy!” Sandy ran all the way into the garden.
Her curly blonde hair was neatly tied behind her head, with a big bow tied on it. Under her smooth and white forehead, there were deep eye sockets, and one pair of blue eyes was as bright as stars.
Sandy ran to Ryan against the sea breeze in Malibu, and pointed at Taylor who was following up. “My sister said we beat the bad guys, is that right?”
“Yes, the big bad guy surrendered.” Picking up his daughter, Ryan put her on the small chair next to her, bowed her head and kissed her small forehead, “My dear, he lost a lot of things to dad. All belong to you and sister.”
“What is it?” The little guy blinked quickly and asked curiously, “Is it fun? Can I eat it?”
“Enough for you to buy the best toys and the most delicious candies in the world.” Tyler walked over and sat next to Nicole. “Dear Sunny.”
“Oh……”
Sandy, who is about to be four years old, has no specific concept. He bit his finger and pondered for a while, “Shall we celebrate with a party, Taylor?”
“Honey, who do you want to invite?”
Nicole, who had been drinking tea, put down the cup, “I can call for you.”
“Um… Aipur, Lily.”
Hearing Nicole’s words, the little guy immediately jumped off the chair and ran to his mother happily, “Elizabeth, Teres…”
Many people’s names popped out of her little mouth. They were basically the children of Ryan and Nicole’s friends.
“Elsa.” Ryan said to the housekeeper sitting on the other side. “Prepare a children’s party. Sunny hasn’t seen Apple and Lily for a long time.”
After speaking, Ryan looked at Taylor again, “You can also call Scarlett~www.mtlnovel.com~ and your other friends.”
“Scarlett is not in Los Angeles.”
Seeing Ryan a little surprised, Taylor said again, “You busy guy must have forgotten that “The Avengers” is about to be released. Scarlett is not like you always have privileges. She and the crew are running announcements all over the world. advertise.”
Before you know it, it turns out that another summer holiday is about to kick off.
In recent months, Ryan has been busy dealing with Murdoch and News Corporation, almost completely putting the film business aside, and as the chairman of Disney, no one will come over and ask him to cooperate with the crew.
“That…” Tyler scratched his face. “Will the matter between me and Scarlett affect the movie?”
“Don’t worry.” Ryan picked up the juice from the table and handed it to Sandy. “Surprise has made some changes to the Black Widow. There will definitely be some impact, but they are all minor problems.” (To be continued…)
