Chapter 857: national hero
"Tang En, don't give a shit. Everyone is waiting for an explanation. What is your real purpose in going to Korea?"
"Of course less..."
Dunn was just admiring the two old faces of Redstone and Ted Turner, who were sitting opposite him. They were as black as the bottom of a pot, and he couldn't even mention how happy they were.
They worked hard, planned secretly, and used all resources to contact the forces of Gengfang to create such a big battle.
As a result, it was easily resolved by Tang En.
This feeling, not to mention how cool!
So much so that when Jack Valenti asked, Dunn almost told the truth... The real purpose, of course, is Girls' Generation! Big white leg idol group!
In the past life, he could only dream with red eyes in front of the computer screen. In this life, he has the strength, so he will naturally realize the fantasy one by one.
"The real purpose is to push the South Korean government to implement the TO's free trade agreement and change the mandatory restriction on the 147-day screening of local movies in cinemas to 73 days."
Dunn's remarks made the atmosphere in the conference room swell.
The effect received was far more exaggerated than Dunn imagined.
In particular, the heads of the MPAA were all horrified, as if they had seen a ghost.
The old man Jack Valentine, who could not stand still, suddenly stood up like a spring, his white eyebrows were trembling slightly, and he asked in disbelief: "Dawn, you... you are not joking, right? ? Another day?"
Tang En smiled and said calmly: "There are so many seniors in the industry here, I don't dare to say nonsense."
"Is it true?" Jack Valentine's voice trembled.
Tang En proudly raised his head, "Of course!"
"They agreed?"
"I had several good exchanges with Chairman Wu of the Korean Film Promotion Committee. He expressed his willingness to promote the implementation of the trade agreement. The deep integration of the special effects industry and Hollywood is a good thing that complements each other, so they naturally don't need to be defensive. Be wary of Hollywood like an enemy."
Jack Valenti was dizzy, and the vibration was almost breathless.
This... how is this possible?
Shocking!
When South Korea joined the TO ten years ago, it signed a free trade agreement, requiring another day. However, after South Korea joined the TO, for various reasons, this clause has not been implemented for a long time.
This is pretty much Jack Valenti's biggest heart attack in the past decade!
He is pushing this matter with all his strength, but the effect is mediocre.
In the early days, it was the Asian financial crisis, and President Clinton expressed his willingness to make concessions to help South Korea tide over the difficulties and would not impose demands.
Later, the Bush administration came to power, but the "9.11" terrorist attack occurred, followed by the second Gulf War.
In order to win over South Korea's support, President Bush has to make some concessions.
So much so that the trade agreement has been signed for ten years, and South Korea has not been able to implement it!
This has caused Hollywood to suffer a huge loss of interests. As the chairman of the MPAA, Jack Valenti has also suffered from enormous pressure from members.
It's hard to do this!
However, he never thought that Tang En went to South Korea, and then... he got this thing done?
how is this possible?
In the past ten years, he personally went to South Korea dozens of times, but he failed to get this thing done.
Especially the film promotion committee, the attitude is extremely tough!
There is no room for negotiation at all.
Dunn, he really did it?
Jack Valenti sat down swayingly, his face turned pale. The shock that Dunn's words just brought him almost made him have a heart attack.
After a long pause, he suppressed the shock in his heart and asked again, "Tang En, this matter is very important, even if it is submitted to the White House, it is a major event that can shake national policy! Don't be sloppy! Tang En, this is a big deal! Did you really do it?"
Dunn was a little confused.
Shake national policy?
Is it so exaggerated?
He just promoted the reform of Korean film policy, and conformed to the general trend of history.
Just pushing the boat.
Can it rise to the height of the White House national policy?
No way?
Jack Valenti explained it simply, "TO's free trade agreement...there are too many countries that have defaulted, and many times, the White House is also very difficult to deal with, even our friendly countries are violating the agreement, such as South Korea. If South Korea can be used as a model to open a hole, and then comprehensively promote the review and supervision of free trade agreements by the United Nations, the impact on the world structure and the economic environment will be far from simple as the film market.”
Tang En suddenly realized.
Dare to feel that he became a national hero in a confused way?
When this is done, maybe President Bush will give him a medal.
Really unexpected.
Tang En coughed lightly and said sternly: "There should be no problem. South Korea is currently fully promoting the special effects industry. As long as Hollywood can condescend to cooperate, the Film Promotion Committee will make every effort to promote the reform of Korean film policy. Of course, committee member Wu and I will make every effort. The president is still only a verbal agreement, and the specific negotiations still need the MPAA to negotiate on behalf of Hollywood."
Jack Valenti took a deep breath, panicking in his heart, as if he had not recovered from the shock, "Okay! Good! Good! If this is done, Dunn, you are a Hollywood hero. , no, a national hero!"
Many countries have film protection policies, even in core EU countries like Germany and France.
In fact, from the perspective of Hollywood's interests, the revision of Korean film policy will not increase Hollywood's box office revenue too much.
Every year...that's around $300-400 million.
However, looking at the world, this volume is huge.
South Korea needs to be revised, and other countries must be revised one after another!
Not to mention EU countries such as Germany and France, even Russia is liberalizing its policies, and even mainland China has revised the film rules...
Now Hollywood movies can only get 15% of the box office share in the mainland, and the money has not been received yet. Because foreign exchange is involved, China Film Group, the only foreign film distributor, will always find various excuses to withhold the split.
Later, when the United States opened the gap through the Korean film market, it began to promote free trade agreements on a global scale.
Although China is still stubbornly resisting Hollywood movies, it has also made great concessions, allowing more Hollywood movies to enter the mainland market every year, and increasing the box office share to 25%. (Note)
Dunn's ambition is great, but it only lies in satisfying personal desires.
For the international situation, he never thought of making the slightest change.
His biggest secret is foresight.
If the international situation is changed, his foresight is still useless?
How to plan for the best interests?
Therefore, when Tang En made many major decisions, he followed the historical trend.
Otherwise, with his negotiating ability, how could he simply get the Korean Film Promotion Committee?
People are not stupid!
It's just a concubine love, just hit it off!
Unexpectedly, Tang En's move to take advantage of the trend for the sake of Hollywood's film career turned out to be a stone throwing stone for planning the national policy of the United States...
Happiness came so suddenly, Dunn couldn't resist.
He smiled bitterly in his heart: "I just want to be a low-key and profitable film director. I really never thought of becoming the founder of the international landscape... I'm not a politician, I'm a businessman! Invincible...too lonely!"
...
This MPAA meeting, Dunn is the protagonist.
In fact, Dunn is indeed the protagonist!
It's just that the way he becomes the protagonist is a little different.
Originally, according to some people's assumptions, Tang En would become the target of public criticism.
In order to relieve the pressure and resolve the conflict, Tang En had to make concessions, take out a large part of the benefits, and share the profits with everyone.
This matter is completely resolved.
But I didn't expect... the development of things was completely different from what I imagined.
Dunn did not explain too much about Harvey Weinstein at all. All his speeches at the meeting were centered on South Korea.
From the Korean tourism industry, to the Korean special effects industry, to the policy reform of the Korean film industry...
The tourism industry can make a little money and has a slight investment prospect;
The special effects industry~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can help Hollywood solve a lot of financial pressure, and find a way out for those special effects companies that cannot survive;
The policy reform of the film industry... This influence can be great, and it can rise to the height of the White House national policy!
Jack Valentine's remarks are far from false.
If this matter is really done by a businessman in Dunn, he can really become a national hero!
Once the TO Free Trade Agreement has a breakthrough in enforcement globally, it will greatly promote the development of the US economy, thereby driving countless jobs.
Great work!
The pattern is far more than Hollywood.
In contrast, Harvey Weinstein's little bit of **** is not worth mentioning at all.
At the end of the meeting, even Redstone and Ted Turner were embarrassed to mention Harvey Weinstein again, but discussed the globalization of entertainment with everyone seriously.
A critique against Dunn has really turned into an industry seminar.
The aggressiveness at the beginning of the meeting also vanished into nothingness.
With a smile on his face, Dunn quietly listened to everyone's enthusiastic discussion.
His eyes looked at Lei Shidong intentionally or unintentionally.
Seeing Redstone felt hairy.
Not to mention Redstone, even Michael Eisner was a little scared.
This kid, isn't there something bad brewing, thinking of revenge?
(Note: I see a friend discussing the issue of box office splitting, let me talk about it. The standard split for domestic producers is 35%. However, the producer usually gives back 2 points to the theater chain, and the average split income is 33%. This is It is a domestic feature, not an international market situation.)
