Chapter 354 Tough Action From All Parties!

This producer union meeting, in addition to setting the tone of "not easy to compromise", also formulated a series of response plans!

The speed is astounding.

Generally speaking, when the various unions in the American entertainment industry decide a matter, it is definitely not something that can be done in one or two meetings.

Prolonged and multiple discussions are bound to take place.

But...this time it was so fast!

Because, the representatives who participated in this producer union meeting did not usually send individuals to perfunctory things. Appeared directly, and even many media giants such as Murdoch, Redstone, Eisner, etc., attended the meeting in person.

Zucker, as the victim of the attack, is also in it.

Therefore, the forces of all parties can be said to be united, reducing a lot of wrangling, and things are progressing extremely quickly.

A meeting decides everything, completely breaking the previous convention.

UPN TV.

"I Am a Celebrity" interview program group, Zhu Ke took the stage again and participated in the recording of this episode.

Facing the camera and the audience of more than 300 people, host Win Stanton said loudly: "As we all know, the general strike involving 11,000 screenwriters from the Hollywood Screenwriters Guild has seriously affected the normal development of Hollywood. It is foreseeable that in the next six months, the number of movies released in theaters will be greatly reduced."

"And during this critical period like a volcanic eruption, Mr. Zucker Wald, a well-known super-rich man in the United States, um, my boss, was smashed in the face by leather shoes in full view, causing an uproar in the United States."

"So today my boss, Mr. Zucker Wald, will be on our show today to give us a little inside story about this strike."

The voice just fell.

The whole program was recorded, and there was a sudden sensation!

Zucker!

The current Zhu Ke is not the unknown person from a few years ago!

Wald Pictures, which produces high-quality movies, has become a rising star in Hollywood.

is a presence that cannot be ignored;

The TV group of Jinshuguang Entertainment Group, under the jurisdiction of UPN TV network and WB TV network, ranks among the top in the United States. Every day, it provides movies, TV dramas, variety shows, news, talk shows and other high-quality programs for countless audiences. .

What's more, there are many careers such as online recruitment, Baez dolls, Jin Shuguang music, publishing....

Is the name of a billionaire a joke?

"Wow! Is it really Mr. Zucker Wald? He actually came directly to the scene?" A blond teenager was extremely excited.

The young and rich Zucker has always been the object of worship of many American youths.

"This time I saw it with my own eyes."

The person who said this was a middle-aged man.

In other words, Zhu Ke's influence has now gradually spread from the field of young people to all age groups, and its influence is increasing day by day.

With Zhu Ke's appearance, the scene immediately burst into applause~

"Hi Mr. Wald, um, or call you dearest boss?!" host Winstanton joked.

Zhu Ke smiled and said with a smile: "Weinstanton, we are old friends. You must know that I have appeared on the TV show twice, and it's all for you."

"Wow~ I'm really honored then!" Weinstanton laughed.

After some opening remarks, naturally entered the main topic.

"Mr. Wald, what do you think of the writers' strike?" Winstanton asked.

This question is also a topic of interest to more than 300 viewers at the scene. After all, there has been a lot of uproar recently, and almost no one knows about it.

Zucker pondered for a few seconds and said, "The so-called strike is nothing more than a demand for dissatisfaction and a reasonable allocation of funds. Simply put, it means to increase money."

"Then you think they're right?" Weinstanton demanded.

"Yes!" Zucker nodded.

As soon as the voice fell, the scene was noisy.

They never expected that Zucker would say that the writers' strike was right.

Zhu Ke spread his hands and said solemnly: "Strikes and demonstrations, this is the right granted to every citizen by American law, what's wrong with it? But... I want to ask, why don't the screenwriters who are dissatisfied with their appeals seek cooperation with the producers? Instead, choose the strike with the lowest efficiency and the most damage?"

"I don't think it's reasonable!"

"And, as everyone knows, I was attacked not long ago!"

"You can't satisfy your own demands. You can work hard to improve yourself, or you can go to parade, but why do some people choose the most rude way?"

"Violence...the worst thing to do!"

"You resort to violence, and the result is bound to be extremely bad, because it tramples on the conscience, morals and laws of society."

Summed up in one sentence, your behavior...is wrong!

In fact, Zucker changed the concept a bit, and directly named the screenwriters who participated in the strike as a "thug".

Zucker just wanted to tell everyone that he is not easy to mess with!

......

at the same time.

Zucker slammed the screenwriters who participated in the strike on the TV platform, and the representatives of all parties and the community of interests who attended the meeting of the Producers Union were not idle, and they took the initiative to attack according to the predetermined plan.

Ray Stone, chairman of Viacom Group and chairman of Paramount Pictures, accepted an interview invitation from The New York Times.

"Why don't they seek a peaceful dialogue and instead choose an industry strike?"

"In the name of appealing for dissatisfaction, in fact, it is to fear that the world will not be in chaos!"

"Even the enterprising, young and promising Zucker Wald was beaten, showing their madness, what reason do we have to compromise? Once we compromise, are we just fueling this unhealthy trend and evil spirit? !"

"Therefore, for the prosperity of the whole industry, we will never compromise!"

Regardless of his age, Lei Shidong has always been dissatisfied with his old age. When he speaks, he is sonorous and powerful.

......

As the boss of News Corp and chairman of 20th Century Fox, Murdoch naturally criticized the strike.

Major production companies have been dispatched to launch media public opinion offensives. At the end of the 1990s when the Internet was not particularly developed, at this moment, they suppressed the strikers in terms of publicity.

At the same time, the most important thing is to appease the Directors Guild and Actors Guild!

Representatives of the six major Hollywood groups, representing the entire producer union, have been negotiating with representatives of the Directors Guild and Actors Guild for several days.

Standardize the box office share of directors and starring actors;

Each production company has made a series of commitments to improve the treatment of actors, even if it is the welfare treatment of superstar actors, so as to achieve the purpose of isolating the screenwriters union.

"Screenwriters Guild, what is that?"

Discord among various trade unions is not uncommon.

The Directors Guild and Actors Guild are far more powerful than the Writers Guild, and they have always looked down upon the Writers Guild. Isn't this normal behavior? !

The wind is rising~

Under the heavy attack, the screenwriters union was dumbfounded!

The 11,000 screenwriters who participated in the strike were also stunned.

Under the encirclement and suppression of various forces, they can be said to be in retreat!

Even a number of film and television companies have publicly stated that they are willing to improve the treatment of screenwriters, so as to achieve the purpose of dividing screenwriters unions.

The power of capital is revealed at this moment!

A representative of the Producers Union claimed in private: "At present, 89% of Hollywood screenwriters are registered members of the Screenwriters Guild, but...if the proportion of registered members becomes 50%, or even lower At that time, let me see how they will toss in the future?!"

" "The first more is sent.
