Chapter 2569: Give In?
Chapter 411: Admit defeat?
"Demi," the two people in the conference room hurriedly followed after hearing this. One said, "Just follow your opinion,"
The other added, "We won't do anything,"
"Can you promise?" Demi also stopped.
If they could solve it between them, she didn't want to bring it to Els. Mr. Roger Els was a person that many people, including them, didn't want to trigger his anger.
He had said more than once in interviews, "I won't ignore anything. If someone makes me feel bad, I will make him feel bad too." - This is actually a bit like Feng Yiping now.
However, he is more irritable than Feng Yiping. Once, he was so angry that he couldn't control himself. As a result, he picked up a chair and smashed a hole in the wall of the control room.
He is really strong with age.
If he knew that such a dispute had occurred before the show was about to start, the two of them would certainly not escape, and Demi would not be unscathed.
The female hosts could actually sense that old Els didn't appreciate their behavior of relying on their advantage as famous hosts to confront their superiors.
The two did not answer Demi's question and walked away from her with a gloomy face, but one of them couldn't help but say, "If the broadcast of this interview affects the interests of 21st Century Fox, the group will investigate..."
"I'll take responsibility!" Demi answered immediately.
It's not that she couldn't guess the truth.
It must be Spielberg who bribed some people on his side and knew the content of the interview, so he was trying to exert pressure.
Big directors like Spielberg who have their own studios have influence in the United States that is not limited to Hollywood. They can influence and manipulate many media through various channels.
Similar things are actually commonplace for Demi. Otherwise, why are people outside the circle still unaware of the scandals that are known to all Hollywood insiders?
In the minds of senior people like Demi, the freedom of the press that the West boasts of has become more of an excuse to criticize some countries, such as China and Russia, when they need it.
But she is not afraid to report this matter directly to CEO Els, because Spielberg is not easy to offend, so is Feng Yiping easier to offend?
It is true that Spielberg has cooperation with the group's film studio, but doesn't Feng Yiping and his company have more cooperation with the group?
The reason why those people dared to do this is that Spielberg must have made a promise that moved them.
But such things are not worth making a fuss about. Demi just needs to ensure that this interview can be broadcast in full, get high ratings, and bring enough benefits to herself.
She walked towards her still nervous team with a proud spring breeze, "Get ready, start broadcasting immediately,"
A group of people immediately got busy excitedly.
…………
At this time, Cummins, who stayed in Silicon Valley, and his men were so busy that they were thirsty and didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
Their main task now is actually similar to Spielberg's, which is to try to get all media to cooperate with their intentions and publish relevant reports tomorrow.
After being subdivided, this content is divided into three items: to cooperate with the interview that Fox will broadcast tonight to fry Mia Farrow; to label Spielberg with relevant negative labels; and to see the big news that will be revealed depending on the progress of the banquet.
The first item has been easily completed.
Mia Farrow, who jumped the most fiercely on related matters, is actually the weakest, and this time, he obviously cannot rely on Woody Allen's power.
On the other hand, Mia Farrow insists on supporting the Olympics, which is to oppose the views they hold. Such a simple and crude approach has actually caused disgust among many stars and media, and no one is willing to bear such pressure-it is estimated that even Spielberg is disgusted with this.
If Mia Farrow didn't have a big mouth, if Mia Farrow didn't repeatedly focus on attacking him in the media, he should be able to use this Olympics to improve his international reputation.
Therefore, his public relations company, after learning of Feng Yiping's intention, seemed to have taken some actions to go with the flow.
The second item has made some progress, but it is not satisfactory. Specifically, it is still in a stalemate.
Woody Allen was able to suppress the reports about him and Mia Farrow's adopted daughter. Spielberg is also able to suppress some well-known media reports that are unfavorable to him in cooperation with Feng Yiping.
He has been in Hollywood for so many years and does have a lot of resources in his hands. For example, if the media offends him on this issue, there will be no chance to interview some stars in the future.
So now, Cummings has personally come out to talk with some media leaders, specifically, to exchange.
If you support us on this issue instead of Spielberg, then in the future our social media and our content department will definitely support you.
They have never thought of using their advantages in social networks to directly attack Spielberg and Mia Farrow. It can be said that it is a child's thinking.
Because, if such a thing is allowed to happen, then, wouldn't a giant like News Corporation, which has media resource advantages all over the world, be immune to any attack?
Wouldn't it be possible to deal with whoever you want?
But if such a situation really happens, such as when someone attacks the Murdoch family, Murdoch mobilizes his own resources to launch a relentless attack on the relevant people, that is a sure way to die.
The most taboo for a company of this nature is to use public tools for private purposes. If it ignores the social attributes of its own products or services and arbitrarily lets all the company's resources serve the owner, it will only have a counterproductive effect and will only make all users spurn it.
In the end, users and the market can vote with their feet to eliminate it.
But of course it is not impossible to use such advantages, so exchange is inevitable.
To put it simply, it is the strategy currently adopted by Cummins and his team. You help me with this matter, and I help you with yours.
Because the comprehensive strength of his company is much stronger than Spielberg, Cummins believes that if it were not for the tight time, he would still be able to win in this regard.
At present, it is estimated that the final result should be around 70:30, that is, 70% support them in criticizing Spielberg, and 30% support Spielberg.
Feng Yiping expressed satisfaction with the result he expected.
Although Feng Yiping is sure that as long as he works harder, it will not be a problem to increase it to 82:30, but if all the media are highly consistent with them and criticize Mia Farrow and Spielberg, it will not be a good thing in the United States.
The phenomenon of no opposition will definitely arouse the vigilance of many Americans.
Americans, in fact, have a high sense of crisis in many aspects, because they can't help but think, if I encounter a similar thing, wouldn't I be dead?
So, it will further arouse their disgust.
However, Cummins looked at the people in the office who were still busy contacting at this time. What is the progress of the last item, the boss?
He called Wu Qian again.
"It's in progress," Wu Qian said again.
It is indeed in progress.
Feng Yiping was holding a glass of wine, politely greeting the stars he met on the road, and went straight to Tom Hanks, who was holding his hands and laughing with several people.
"Hi Tom," he patted Hanks on the shoulder, "Can I borrow a step?"
"Feng," Hanks, who had just met Feng Yiping for the first time at the banquet, followed Feng Yiping to the side and praised, "The banquet was great, especially the food, which was really eye-opening,"
"It makes me feel that the food I ate before was not real Chinese food,"
"Thank you Tom," Feng Yiping took him to a sofa placed among the flowers, "Please sit down,"
Before he sat down, Tom Hanks said, "Feng, Spielberg asked me to convey his apologies to you. He really has a schedule that cannot be postponed today,"
"In particular, he really hopes that you can know that some of his previous decisions were really forced by his own reasons,"
