Chapter 709: Hollywood Power List

Every year, The Hollywood Reporter publishes a top 100 list of Hollywood's most powerful people.

Last year, Dunn was No. 4 on the list.

This year, Tang En, as the chairman of the New Universal Group, has reached the top indisputably!

Ranked second is the chairman of aol Time Warner, CEO Richard Parsons.

Michael Eisner, head of Disney, ranked third;

Michael Ovitz, founder of Legendary Pictures, ranked 4th;

Viacom's boss, Summer Redstone, finished fifth.

Worth mentioning... 6th is New Universal's CEO Barry Diller, New Universal's Head of Entertainment Bill McNick, 9th, New Universal's VP of Entertainment, New Universal Women Shirley Lansing, director of the Rights Protection Foundation, ranked 12th, Nina Jacobson, head of Marvel Studios, ranked 13th, and John Rust, head of Pixar, ranked 16th...

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

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

In terms of actors, Keanu Reeves is ranked the highest at No. 8.

In terms of directors, the highest ranking is Peter Jackson, ranked 11th...

Nominally a power leaderboard, in fact, it's more of an influence leaderboard. Actors such as Keanu Reeves really have little power, but the release of "The Matrix 2" and "The Matrix 3" this year made him the most influential actor of the year.

From this list, you can see the pattern of today's Hollywood.

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

Ted Turner wants to use his industry prestige in the past few decades to shock Dunn, which is undoubtedly a dream!

"Ted... it's better not to provoke. Redstone has not really settled it yet, so it's not good to make trouble." Barry Diller heard about Dunn and cautiously advised him.

Dunn said speechlessly: "Do you think I want to provoke him? He doesn't know what to do. He saw that "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" was a big hit, and "The Chronicles of Narnia 2" had a bleak box office, so he felt unbalanced. "

"What does he think?"

Barry Diller asked softly.

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

Anyway, the new global family has a big business now, and they don't care about that meager interest. 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!

Such profits, not to mention Viacom and Disney, even aol Time Warner, also have comparable capital!

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

Barry Diller thought he heard it wrong, "What?"

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

"What's the meaning?"

Barry Diller didn't respond.

Tang En said coldly: "Ted Turner is jealous because he sees us making too much money, and wants to come here to take advantage of it? Shameless! If you want to take advantage of me, there is no door!"

Barry Diller had a black line on his forehead, and said bitterly, "Tang En, sometimes it's better to do more than one less thing. If you spend a little money, you can buy peace, and it's very cost-effective..."

"Stop!" Tang En was very dissatisfied with this statement, "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 gasped.

This Dunn is really overbearing.

What are the interests of shareholders?

You hold 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 Dunn's character has 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, "Donnell, you have to understand that President Bush Jr. is in power now."

"so what?"

"Haven't you heard? Ted Turner is very close to the Bush family."

"Oh."

Dunn nodded lightly.

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

"President Bush Jr...."

Dunn's mouth twitched, a little funny, "Don't worry, Barry. Ted Turner has a great relationship, and it's not impossible. President Bush... I'll get it done."

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

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

President Bush's family, watching with him.

"I can't say it well, but... I have a way!"

Tang En pointed to his head, his face flushed red and full of confidence.

Barry Diller nodded slightly, and said nothing, "If that's the case, then it's nothing. After Ted Turner pushed for the merger of Time Warner and aol, his influence within Time Warner is far less. 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 solve it!"

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

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

"Who?"

"Carol Melton."

There was a hint of suspicion on Dunn's face.

He had never heard of this man.

Barry Diller said: "He was legal counsel to the chairman in his early years and then joined Time Warner as vice president of the Office of Public Policy. Six years ago, he moved to Viacom as a government relations department. Executive Vice President. With Mel Kamathin's departure, his time at Viacom is over."

Dunn understood as soon as he heard it.

Barry Diller doesn't believe in himself. He wants to find a master who is responsible for dealing with the government.

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

"That's right, I brought him here, just to build this department. The size of New Global is getting bigger and bigger, and there will be more and more dealings with the government. It is necessary to create such a department. It's just that the legal department is also responsible for the work. It’s too big, and it’s not professional enough.”

Tang En nodded and said honestly: "You decide, I don't understand as well as you about the management of the company."

Barry Diller smiled. "If I said another reason, you'd understand."

"what?"

"Time Warner is approaching him to hire him as executive vice president of public policy."

Sure enough, Tang En's face changed and he said anxiously, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Dig it up, we must dig it up! Let's put some eye drops on Ted Turner too!"

...

Penelope Cruz is back after filming of "Three Men in Troubled Times" is over.

The first thing is to find Dunn.

"I heard that you are snubbing my sister?"

Penelope Cruz and Dunn have a very good relationship. As soon as they saw him, they resented indignantly.

"How come? I'm very good to Monica. If you're wronged, I'll forget it!" Dunn looked innocent and looked like he was wronged.

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

This is true.

In recent days, Dunn is immersed in the gentle village of Miranda Kerr and Megan Gale, unable to extricate himself.

At the beginning, Megan Gale and Miranda Kerr were not familiar enough, and Dunn didn't feel it.

After they got to know each other well, they showed unparalleled charm.

When they got into bed, these two Australian stunners were just like Lala, their charm and seductive charm from the inside out, simply fascinated Tang En.

Although Monica Cruz is also a new love, it really can't compare to the enjoyment brought by these two stunners and supermodels to Dunn.

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

Penelope Cruz looked at Dunn with a strange expression, and pouted again and again: "The rectum... Injured? Is it that serious?"

"Yes! They all went to the hospital for examination!"

"How am I all right?"

Tang En laughed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ stepped forward and hugged her, "You are amazing!"

"Humph!" Penelope Cruz gave him a coquettish glance, "I don't care anyway, now that I'm back, you have to be nice to our sisters. It's not long since Monica came to the United States, and I'm still entrusting you to take care of me, Are you so cold?"

Tang En assured: "Don't worry about this, can I not give you your face? I'll go over today and get together with your sisters."

Penelope Cruz pursed her nose charmingly and said softly, "It's cheap and good!"

"Who is it?"

"You, two of our sisters are with you, and you still look reluctant."

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

Penelope Cruz gave him a big white eye and snorted: "I don't know you yet? I must be thinking about putting the two of us sisters together on the bed and having fun."

"Hey, I'm mainly curious."

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

Dunn thought for a while and said, "I have tried a pair of sisters, Zoe Deschanel and her sister Emily Deschanel, but they are too far from your sisters. You two sisters, but A pair of peerless stunners, why don't you... stay by my side for a few more years? I left King's Landing Villa No. 2 for you to live in, which is the half-mountain manor where we used to live together."

"I know." Penelope Cruz giggled, leaned over and blew in his ear, "I'll stay with you for another two years, is that enough? Or...three years?"
