Since starting his business, Tang En has always been rampant, killing gods, and climbing to the top of Hollywood with an unstoppable attitude, like a rocket.

The only time to retreat and compromise is to face Lei Shidong!

In order not to have friction with Lei Shidong, Tang En contributed "Six Football Under" to STA's competitor SHO.

According to internal news, Showtime TV has added nearly 1 million subscribers to home users through the rebroadcast of "Six Feet Under"!

Now that the first round of "Brothers" has been broadcast, I want to take advantage of "Brothers" again?

Is this too shameless?

After giving "Six Footsteps" to SHO TV, Tang En swallowed his anger and gave Lei Shidong enough face.

Now that SHO is cheap, he is still good at it, he actually wants to get involved in the copyright of "Brothers" rebroadcast, which is simply a matter of brute force!

Tang En was furious and slapped the table heavily, his face suddenly turned red, and he shouted angrily: "It's too much to deceive others!"

Bill McNick also had a gloomy face, "This is to use us as soft persimmons!"

"Um?"

Tang En glanced at him strangely. This old guy rarely saw such a strong side of him.

"The influence of "Brothers" is too great! Even if it is replayed, it can attract a huge audience. The six replayed TV stations, except for Starz, are all basic cable TV stations, and they can only play deleted versions. As long as they are broadcast, they will attract more viewers to Starz TV station to watch the full version. If Showtime TV station is also replayed, it will be diversion and rob our business!"

Bill McNick's analysis makes sense.

STA and SHO are originally competitors. Tang En Pictures spent a huge amount of money to buy the TV copyright and still used it to fund its competitors. Isn’t this a brain?

Lei Shidong's method is to suppress giants that break market rules, and to bully the small by bullying the big!

Tang En waved a single fist and said decisively: "No matter what, "Brothers" cannot be launched on Showtime! Damn, they can't even think of any of our own TV series in the future!"

Bill McNick said in a deep voice: "Thunderstone Dong is scheming and sensible, and is proficient in external tricks, so he cannot be careless."

"I know that old guy is powerful, but he can't do whatever he wants!" Tang En was so angry that this Lei Shidong thought it was a game for big fish to eat small fish, and he treated him as a shrimp!

"Do you remember the Viacom and Disney battle last year?"

"Of course! Viacom's CBS competes for market share with Disney's ABC. CBS uses "Survivor" and "Crime Scene Investigation" to beat up the sensational variety show "Who Can Be a Millionaire", completely cutting off the power of ABC to take advantage of the situation."

Bill McNick nodded, "You're right, but... you know, I'm from Disney and have a few friends there. A few days ago, I heard a different statement."

"What?"

"Thunderstone Dong won the victory in a disgrace!"

"ah?"

Tang En opened his mouth wide. Is it a trick to hear his tone?

Bill McNick said: "In addition to California and Florida, Disney also has Disneyland in Tokyo and Paris, among which Tokyo has the best performance."

Tang En nodded and said, "I know, so in September this year, Disney joined forces with the Japanese side to invest in a new Maritime Disney."

Bill McNick said: "In fact, the negotiations began last year. This is actually a joint venture between the United States and Japan, involving no less than US$3 billion! With such a large amount of funds, fund mobilization and approval procedures are very complicated, and require regulatory licensing and judicial approval from both governments."

Tang En opened his eyes wide and looked incredible, "What does it mean? Could it be that Lei Shidong interfered with it?"

Bill McNick said: "Redstone served in the army in his early years and deciphered a lot of codes. After decades of operation, his connections in Congress are far from what Disney can compare to. In order to promote the construction of a new paradise, Disney must give in."

"Damn it, this Lei Shidong is too much!"

Even if Tang En and Disney are as powerful as fire, they can't help but share the same hatred after Lei Shidong's despicable means.

The market is the market. Whether it is healthy competition or vicious competition, everyone is playing the rules of business games.

Lei Shidong directly uses political relations to interfere in commercial competition. This is no longer a way to be able to do it, but it is impossible to afford it!

Everyone plays rugby together. You are holding the ball with a submachine gun in your hand. Even if you win, who will convince you?

No wonder Lei Shidong has such a bad reputation in the industry. Not only is it because his family relationship is not good, but his wife and children are separated. This trick behind the scenes is despised!

Tang En gritted his teeth and asked, "Did they want the replay rights of Brothers Company? Did Lei Shidong say hello in person?"

"No, it's the person in charge of CBS."

"That's easy to deal with, just refuse!"

Tang En waved his hand, his tone firm and unceremonious.

Bill McNick said cautiously: "I think... you'd better explain this to Redstone in person, there's no need to break up. His influence is too great. Aren't we going to acquire Universal Pictures? This requires approval from the Federal Department of Justice."

Tang En smiled coldly, "Explanation? Explain it just so much! I respect Lei Shidong is an old man, he treats me as a child to tease me! He is shameless! Let's get out of here in the future, stay wherever you are cool! I won't play with him anymore!"

Bill McNick was startled, "Donn, don't act irritating!"

Tang En sighed and shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm not so reckless as to break up with him. Didn't our "American Idol" be aired on CBS in February? It doesn't matter. Even if there is a little conflict in "Brothers", "American Idol" is enough to make him smile."

Of course, if you really want to tear your face, Tang En wouldn't be afraid!

The current situation is very different from half a year ago.

Don't have two more people, one is strategic consultant Jack Welch, and the other is CEO Brandy Norris!

Jack Welch has been in charge of General Electric for more than 20 years and has created a business empire with a market value of 450 billion US dollars. His relationship in Congress is much greater than that in Leishudong!

Brandy Norris was born in Goldman Sachs. As we all know, Goldman Sachs has strong connections in the Federal Treasury Department and the Federal Reserve.

If Lei Shidong really dares to make trouble when Tang En acquires Universal Pictures, Tang En would not lack a direct channel to politics.

By then, it will be true that we will never stop!

Donn had a very positive idea and was arbitrary. Bill McNick had long been used to it. Seeing his expression, he knew that he was confident.

Then he changed the topic, "There is one more thing that you must be very interested in."

"What?"

"I heard... Michael Bay is going to have a new job."

"ah?"

Tang En was a little surprised. The crushing defeat of "Pearl Harbor" has exposed all Michael Bay's shortcomings, and it will only explode and not emotional scenes. This is the shortcomings of directing commercial blockbusters.

Many times, love is an indispensable element in commercial films.

At this time, who is so ambitious? He dares to use Michael Bay?

Bill McNick said: "It was Sony Pictures. The Jedi Men launched by Jerry Brookheimer and Michael Bay, which invested $19 million and earned $140 million in box office, which was a great success."

Tang En suddenly realized, "So, are they going to restart the sequel?"

"That's right. Columbia Pictures' performance has not been good in recent years. It has been contacting Jerry Brookheimer and wants to launch "Jedi Men 2". However... Jerry Brookheimer has been doing well in the past few years, and Michael Bay has also gradually risen. There is no need to make a sequel."

Don nodded and said, "Now that "Pearl Harbor" has lost a big box office, many Hollywood film companies are unwilling to be angry, so "Jedi Men 2" is on the agenda. Sony Pictures needs performance, Jerry Brookheimer and Michael Bay also need a movie to prove themselves again."

Bill McNick said: "Obviously, they didn't play it."

Tang En remained silent and thought for a while.

"Jedi Men 2" invested $130 million, earned 138 million in North America and earned 134 million in overseas box office. In terms of the box office market, this movie failed again, and it was even worse than "Pearl Harbor".

But this movie is a typical Michael Bay style, with fast and tense rhythm, grand explosions, and exciting action scenes. It belongs to the classic action movie type of the 1990s and is sold well in the surrounding market.

Jerry Brookheimer and Michael Bay have been active for so many years, and it’s time to take a break!

Tang En doesn't want to give them another chance!
