Chapter 426: stupid lunatic

Natalie Portman is a "nerd". When she was a sophomore in high school, she won the Intel Science Talent Discovery Award for her paper "Discussing a Simple Enzyme Method for Producing Hydrogen from Sugar".

It is well known that the teaching level of public schools is far inferior to that of private schools. Natalie studied in a public high school, and while she was reading and filming, she could also write a chemistry undergraduate-level thesis, which was published in professional academic journals, which immediately caused a sensation in the United States.

Especially when she was admitted to prestigious universities such as Harvard and Yale with all A's, even the "New York Times" exclaimed that Natalie Portman's IQ has the potential to be the President of the United States.

But things changed when I got to college.

College courses, especially psychology majors, are very difficult.

When Tang En came to see her in Cambridge, she couldn't help complaining, "I've decided to stop filming next year and stop filming!"

"Ah? What's the matter?" Dunn was a little amused, "Aren't you begging me to cooperate with Director Spielberg?"

Natalie cried and said, "I missed too many classes, and my grades are too bad!"

"Hang out?"

"Nonsense!" Natalie glared at him fiercely, and then pouted, "My neurobiology course grade is out, it's a B!"

"b? It's pretty good too."

"But I've never been this bad, I've always been an a or an a+!"

Tang En couldn't help but rolled his eyes, discussing grades with Xueba was the stupidest thing, "Okay, it's okay to take a break. It's only been a few years in college, spending more time with friends and classmates, the chance to act, There are many more to come.”

Only then did Natalie turn from worry to joy, took Dunn's arm, and walked happily on the green road of the school, "Why are you here suddenly? Aren't you busy with work?"

Dunn said: "I was going to acquire two companies, but I ran into a little trouble. So I found Brandy through headhunting. Oh, Brandy Norris, the vice president of Goldman Sachs, has run a lot of mergers and acquisitions, and I want to dig him. Come here and be the CFO."

Tang En Pictures has acquired several companies in the past, but they are all film and television companies in the circle, which are semi-market transactions. It's easy to operate through Bill McNick, or Michael Ovitz, caa.

But imax and Dolby Laboratories are two technology companies, and the connections in the entertainment industry are naturally useless, and more professional financial talents are needed.

Moreover, in the next few years, Tang En Films may have several large-scale acquisitions, and also need to adjust the shareholding structure and prepare for listing, all of which require a talent who is proficient in finance, accounting, investment, financing, mergers and acquisitions.

"Oh!"

Natalie responded dumbly, paused, then looked up at him, "Then will you still be filming in the future?"

"Ah?" Dunn looked at her in surprise, "Shooting, I'm a director! Bill Gates is the richest man, and he often writes code. This is his old job, and he can't lose it."

Natalie pursed her lips and smiled, "That's good, I thought we had no chance to cooperate!"

Tang En's heart softened, and he stretched his arms around her shoulders, "Of course there will be! Besides, we haven't cooperated too much. Have you forgotten about the last Star Wars?"

"I didn't forget." Natalie's face was filled with happiness. "But it was a Jedi Knight movie. I am a heroine in name, but I don't actually have a role in it."

"What about "The Girl Who Moved Soul"? If you were a supporting actress in "The Girl Who Moved the Soul", what about "Juno"? Are you always the heroine?"

"That doesn't count. You're a producer, not a director."

Tang En nodded and understood what she meant, "Okay, when you graduate from college, we will definitely work together to make a special classic movie!"

Natalie smiled and pointed to the right, "The library is in front, do you want to take a look?"

Tang En said: "Forget it, I don't want to be watched. Let's go to sit on the lawn over there... Lie down for a while, and let me smell the smell of Harvard's soil."

The two avoided many students sitting on the grass reading and chatting, lying side by side in a corner, but it was far less beautiful than expected, Tang En couldn't help complaining: "It's too bad with the grass!"

Natalie chuckled, "It's all autumn, you should come in spring!"

Tang En sighed: "Spring? You know, at that stage, you have to be busy with the awards season first, and then the summer season, but you can't find time."

Natalie thought of something, and suddenly turned over, holding her fair chin with one hand, revealing a delicate and playful face, and said with great interest: "By the way, the agent told me to prepare for "Juno" Doing pre-show promotions."

Tang En frowned, "Why don't I tell you, you can study with peace of mind, and don't participate in the publicity work. It's awards season anyway, and free publicity is the focus."

For small-scale literary and artistic films that are slow-paced, lack sufficient bursts, but have the prospect of winning awards, such as "Juno", Hollywood has a special distribution method.

In mid-to-late December, the screening will begin, because the Oscars stipulate that only films released in the previous year can be selected for this year's Oscars.

Taking advantage of the spring breeze of the awards season, almost all entertainment newspapers will focus their reports on award-winning films, which is free publicity. Therefore, after the film was screened in December, in January of the following year, the official large-scale launch of the cinema began.

The schedule of "Juno" has been set. On December 21, the film will be opened on the scale of 11 theaters, forming a wave of word-of-mouth publicity among film critics. It will not be officially launched until January of the following year.

Of course, it would be better if there could be propaganda in the early stage.

Film producers, promoters and brokerage companies must not miss this opportunity.

Tang En disagreed, it was just a movie, far less important than a girlfriend.

But I didn't expect Natalie to say with a smile: "I think it's very interesting, I'm going!"

"what?"

"Don't you know? I've already agreed with the Jimmy Show. When I'm on the show, I will sing a song. It's very interesting."

Dunn's eyes widened, "Sing? Baby, can you sing?"

Natalie snorted softly, "Don't you look down on people? I studied ballet when I was a child, performed stage plays, and the agency wanted to sign me as a model! But my mother refused."

"It's good to refuse!"

"Don't interrupt!"

Natalie pinched Dunn's nose lightly and smiled charmingly, "At that time I was studying at Solomon Schechter Elementary School in Canyon Bay, and the school had a band, I signed up for it, guess what? ?"

Tang En looked at her stupidly, "No way, are you the lead singer?"

"Of course!" Natalie shook her head triumphantly. "But my musical talent is not as good as little Taylor. Later, my mother also discovered this, and I devoted myself to being an actor."

Tang En's eyes lit up, "What song did you sing?"

Natalie sold out, "Aha, you'll know when the time comes, and I promise to surprise you! I'll tell you in particular that the lyrics are filled in by me!"

Tang En was even more interested, "I can write songs too! Hmm... How's your singing skills?"

"Anyway, stronger than you!"

"boast!"

"You do not believe?"

"You sing one?"

"There are too many people here..."

...

"I know, yes, I understand. Mr. Douglas, you are too modest, huh, yes, the conflict between me and Dunn cannot be reconciled!"

Michael Eisner was answering the phone, facing Kirk Douglas, Hollywood's leading Jewish-American mogul.

"It's undeniable that that kid has achieved a lot in the field of commercial films, but Hollywood is not the world of commercial films!" Kirk Douglas's voice was full and powerful, "When Walt founded Disney, I also helped a little, Of course, you have a huge role in making Disney what it is today."

Michael Eisner responded with a smile: "Mr. Douglas, thank you for your compliment. Don't worry, Dunn is our common enemy, and we stand on the same front."

Kirk Douglas said: "The box office market doesn't move well, but the awards market still has some friends. Especially recently, what slogan did he put forward with 'new order, new model, new Hollywood'? , are already deeply dissatisfied with him. Disney's work must create a good public opinion and not cause too much controversy."

He wanted to do Tang En through awards, but the reputation of "A Beautiful Mind" was too good. If it was too harsh, it would cause a strong backlash from public opinion.

This requires media giants like Disney to do public relations~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is also no way.

Among the major media giants in the United States, only Disney is truly born in Hollywood. The leadership of aol Time Warner is all in the hands of Turner Group, Time Group and America Online, and Warner Bros. is not ranked at all.

Not to mention Viacom, Redstone doesn't eat that.

News Corp is also headquartered in New York.

The only contacts Kirk Douglas can contact is Michael Eisner of Disney.

It just so happens that Michael Eisner and Dunn have a deep conflict and can be used by me.

From the telephone communication point of view, the effect is good!

But he didn't know, as soon as he hung up the phone, Michael Eisner's face sank, and he scolded angrily: "Old thing!"

He and Dunn are of course enemies, but they are not friends with Kirk Douglas!

This group of Hollywood antiques is a group of assholes, giving people a headache.

In Michael Eisner's view, Disney's films have not been good at the box office in recent years, mainly because the old guys intervene too much and use an outdated concept to fantasize about commercial blockbusters in the new era.

"Hey!"

Michael Eisner rubbed his forehead and let out a long sigh.

Now, how can he still have the heart to suppress Dunn?

He can't get on with it himself!

Outside, there are interests of Time Warner, Viacom, and Dunn Pictures; inside, a large number of shareholders and directors have jumped out to tell right and wrong.

The sudden "911" incident made the whole Disney even worse!

"I'll help you with Dunn, can you help me with Summer Redstone? Can you help me with Roy Disney? Can you help me with the Bass family? Stupid lunatic!"

Michael Eisner slapped the table hard with a sneer.
