Chapter 647: He's Dunn, actor Dunn

In the previous life, "The Punisher" produced by Netflix exploded in word of mouth, and its rating in imdb was on the same level as "Breaking Bad".

This is still under the premise that Netflix lacks a top production team.

It can be seen that the superhero "The Punisher" is more flammable and more explosive.

If the superheroes such as Spider-Man, Deadpool, and Iron Man are constantly babbling and laughing, then the Punisher has taken a completely opposite route.

No second crap!

Just do it!

All the way to kill kill kill, kill a bright new world!

Of course, if it's just killing, I'm afraid this TV series will be reported by the audience.

The in-depth discussions on topics such as ptsd, local terrorism, gun control, procedural justice and outcome justice also give this TV series a sense of realism.

The first episode of the first season of "The Punisher" has been broadcast on starz TV, with a total of more than 12 million home users, waiting to watch in front of the TV.

It's almost the same as the last episode of "Six Feet Under 3", which just ended.

Dark Marvel, the anti-superhero appeal, is huge.

Tang Enyuan was filming in Boston, and the information channels were relatively lagging behind.

The good news was told to him by Barry Diller himself.

Tang En was a little puzzled, "Barry, just call me to tell me about this?"

Barry Diller paused. "It's true."

"What's wrong?"

"Jeff, that kid... has a lot of ambition."

"Jeff Zucker?" Dunn smiled. "In his heart, there has always been a dream of a TV empire."

Barry Diller murmured, "Yeah, TV Empire."

Why wasn't he back then?

In terms of earning power and market coverage, TV is much more powerful than movies.

Otherwise, he would not have left Paramount and went to create the fourth public television network fox in the United States.

"He complained to you again?" Dunn asked with a smile.

New Universal Group has four business divisions, Film and Television Entertainment Division, Television Media Division, Interactive Entertainment Division, Tourism and Vacation and Consumer Products Division.

This year, the other three departments have received great support from the Group and invested heavily to expand their business.

Only the TV and media department...it's really pitiful.

The outstanding achievement is that Dunn approved the sta TV network to independently produce a high-quality and large-scale American drama "Roma".

As the person in charge, Jeff Zucker is very unwilling, and he also wants the TV and media department to get the same support!

It's just that the group invested in more projects this year, and the financial pressure was relatively large. Dunn and Barry Diller have been suppressing him.

"It's not a complaint this time, he handed in a report."

"Huh? Can't hold back?"

"This……"

Barry Diller hesitated for a moment, "This report is excellent, so good... I can't bear to use power to suppress him anymore."

"Ah?" Dunn was a little surprised, "What report?"

Barry Diller said: "He came up with an acquisition, a very good idea."

"Acquisition?"

"That's right, he wants to acquire Discovery Communications."

Dunn laughed dumbly, "After all, the American TV circle is really too small. Barry, you will be conquered by Jeff's report, won't it be because of old feelings?"

Discovery Communications was founded in 1985 by John Malone. It owns the Discovery Channel, which mainly broadcasts documentaries of popular science, new technology and historical archaeology.

Barry Diller ran the company when he joined John Malone a few years ago.

Barry Diller sternly said: "It has nothing to do with that, Jeff is really a good TV executive, and his strategic vision... is excellent. At least when I was running this company, there was no such strategy. "

Tang En heard the solemnity of the other party, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, you can send that report. In addition, tell Jeff, don't worry. Even if you pass the evaluation, if you really want to acquire this company, you have to wait until next year."

If the CEO of New Universal Group is Tang En, maybe there will not be so many troubles. As long as the prospects are good and the return on investment is high, maybe he will start decisively.

But now that Barry Diller is CEO, Dunn has to abide by the rules he sets.

In short, it is the revenue and expenditure split of the accounts.

In the past, the management of Tang En Films was a bit chaotic. The money earned yesterday was spent today. There was no concept of budget at all.

If it's a small company, it's not a problem.

But for a large group company, this is too amateur.

After Barry Diller took office, he normalized all the internal management of the New Universal Group, and made a budget every year.

For example, if New Universal's capital balance in 2001 was $1 billion, then the company's expenses in 2002 could only be spent out of the $1 billion. If it's not enough, take out a loan, or sell assets to raise money.

No matter how much business revenue in 2002 and how much money was made, it would not be able to be used.

The money earned in 2002 will not be spent until 2003 after the year-end summary and confirmation of integration.

That is, the money earned one year is spent the next year.

Of course, such an operation will carry an additional loan interest, but for large companies, there are many benefits, mainly because the account sheet is clear.

The more chaotic the account statement, the more likely the following business personnel are to make false accounts. Moreover, for multinational companies, capital turnover is very troublesome, and they are consolidated at the end of the year, which will save a lot of unnecessary handling fees, labor costs and turnover losses.

This savings is comparable to non-loan interest.

The most important point is that if the company wants to go public, it must use this budgeting mechanism of revenue and expenditure to make the accounts more concise and allow Wall Street investment banks to see it clearly.

Instead of messing up the accounts and causing trouble to investors.

The development momentum of New Universal Group is very good this year, especially the film and television entertainment department, at least 10% of the scheduled revenue will be exceeded.

Will make a lot of money!

However, this money is still lying on the accounts of various subsidiaries and sub-companys at home and abroad. It has not been consolidated and cannot be used.

This is also the reason why New Global is currently under great financial pressure.

10 minutes later, Dunn received the fax document.

Thirty minutes later, Tang En rubbed his eyes and put down the document, with an indescribable high-spirited expression on his face.

Working hard to dig Jeff Zucker from NBC to take charge of the TV and Media Department, this move is the right move!

"This guy is a **** genius!"

In the study, Dunn couldn't help but growl.

...

The filming of "The Departed" has been completed by 70%, and it is estimated that it will be finished by the end of September.

Dunn's scene was shot faster.

Today is August 31, 2003.

Dunn's last scene started filming.

If it goes well, Dunn can finish it today!

Just yesterday, Dunn and Leonardo finished filming a scene where Mars was splashing around - the rooftop duel.

Different from the poetic and romantic confrontation between Liu Tianwang and Tony Liang in "Infernal Affairs", the confrontation between Dunn and Leonardo is like a fight between two gangsters, full of swear words, squeezing their noses and staring, full of anger.

There is a strong sense of street violence.

Then, after getting off the rooftop, Leonardo was killed by another undercover agent in the police station without any warning.

The protagonist died, and the death was unclear.

No sensationalism whatsoever.

Headshot!

This is almost the end of the entire film.

But, Martin Scorsese is a master of cinema.

Such an ending cannot achieve the sublimation of the theme.

So there is this last scene of Dunn.

The two clues of Leonardo and Dunn, relying on Cate Blanchett, a woman in the middle and early stages, come together and do not appear to be loose.

At the end, Martin Scorsese needs to use another way to make the two main lines overlap again.

Let the structure of the whole film be rigorous and compact, forming a logical closed loop.

The story of "Infernal Affairs" is too loose, and many logical bugs have to be supplemented by "Infernal Affairs 2" and "Infernal Affairs 3".

"The Departed" will only be filmed in one episode, and it must have a beginning and an end.

There is a shocking ending.

At this time, Mark Wahlberg, the original character in "Infernal Affairs", who is not in "The Departed", is also a secret weapon!

He is a policeman, a boss.

He is flamboyant and full of foul language.

Like a complete asshole.

Indeed, he solved the problem in a **** way.

As a police detective, Marko Wahlberg has a wealth of counter-detection methods.

At Dunn's home, he was wearing shoe covers, gloves, headgear, and a rag in his hand. He acted cautiously and didn't want to leave any clues.

He also had a pistol in his hand.

That's a killing gun.

That's right, the hero Leonardo is dead, and the other hero, Dunn, is also finished~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Whether the police or the criminals, they are just a pair when the Irish crime syndicate ravaged Boston. Poor fellow with the same ailment.

Fortunately, at the end, through Mark Wahlberg's criminal-like assassination, Dunn was subdued, leaving a bright ending.

Dunn opened the door, and then saw Mark Wahlberg in an anti-reconnaissance dress.

Mark Wahlberg didn't say a word, looked indifferent, stared with hatred, and raised his pistol.

A pistol with a silencer.

At the juncture of death, Tang En didn't show a gesture of fear. Instead, he became more calm and relieved, as if he was relieved, and said lightly, "That's it."

"boom."

Gunshots, blood splattered.

Dunn fell to the ground.

Only Mark Wahlberg quietly left, a hurried back escaping the murder scene.

"Okay, let's retake the close-up of the shot, and that's it."

Martin Scorsese looked back and nodded in satisfaction.

ten minutes later.

The crew of "The Departed" applauded in unison.

Applause and thunder!

Martin Scorsese played the leading role and said loudly: "Now I announce that Dunn Walker's role in "The Departed" has been completed!"

"Wow!!!"

A jubilation.
