Chapter 1585 Behind-the-scenes funder, hard-core ruthless person and future CEO
Chapter 1585: The backstage of the financial backer, the hard-core ruthless man and the future CEO (Part 2)
PS: Please give me a monthly ticket!
Robert Eiger, who was in a well-suited suit, tidied up the buttons of the suit, and kept his unique smile similar to Mickey Mouse and walked into this Japanese restaurant with a low-key decoration on Long Island.
The waiter wearing a kimono and taking small steps was walking in front very considerately.
Crack-
With clogs on the wooden floor and looking at the bent Japanese waiter, Eiger seemed to have seen a movie "God of Gambling vs. Japanese Skirt Boobs" that he watched at home a few days ago. After watching it three times, he finally bought the video tape of patina for money.
After all, it is a work with the title of Lee.
With the development of Japan's economy, Japanese prices have also gained favor from many people above the United States.
As for the other party knowing that he likes to eat Japanese food, Robert Eiger was not surprised. From this, he could indeed feel the other party's attention to him, which made him feel very good.
No one cares about the importance others take.
The door opened and saw a handsome face and tall man coming over.
"Robert, I'm John Wu--"
"Hello, Mr. Wu." Robert Eiger quickly held the other party's hand with a respectful expression.
Although the movie of the famous tree was met for the first time, the Asian director in front of him who shocked the entire North American film and television industry still instantly recognized him. In addition to being a very excellent director and producer, the other party is also a billionaire with amazing assets.
He knows some of the inside stories that many outsiders don’t understand.
Including the other party's investment of more than hundreds of millions of dollars, this is also the reason why he is willing to go to the appointment today.
The other party is not as simple as a director with high commercial value as seen by the outside world.
"Call me John or Wu, please sit down - I have been intimate with you for a long time." Wu Xiaozu smiled and took out a box of cigars from the wooden leather Gophidano cigar cabinet placed beside him, and took out two, cut them with scissors, and handed them to the other party. "I know from Cohen that you also like cigars, and there are excellent Cuban cigars here."
Cohen is the current vice president of Archosaur Capital in North America. The other party is Guanghui International who helped them poach talents from Goldman Sachs, and they are mainly responsible for talent and management affairs.
Robert Eiger in front of him is the talent he took the initiative to recommend to the company, and he is also a "college classmate" with the other party.
"Thank you, Cohen mentioned you to me, too." Robert Eiger smiled and took the cigar. "It is the best gift the Mayan Indians left to the world."
"Hahaha…"
Wu Xiaozu couldn't help laughing. He was not laughed at by the other party's words, but thought of the "Indian reservation" in North America that is famous for now and the scalp that cannot be retained...
Perhaps this is the best interpretation of the Holy Bitch declaration of Angelina Jolie, the Hollywood Bitch later: 'The Iraqi people have lost everything. Although they have nothing, they are free'.
"Sorry, this is indeed a good gift." Wu Xiaozu said with a smile.
"Yes." Robert Eiger smiled and nodded.
Judging from his first impression, he had a good impression of the Asian in front of him. From the other party's attitude and conversation, it can be seen that he is a very well-educated person.
The two of them sat on the tatami and began to talk about the current development of the American entertainment industry.
Obviously, Robert Eiger, who has been engaged in related entertainment programs on ABC TV for many years, has his own judgment on the entertainment industry.
"The development of TV cannot avoid being more refined, and those soap operas will be slowly replaced. More fine dramas will become the key to attracting audiences and paying." Robert Eiger took a whiskey glass and took a sip, paired with bluefin tuna, which made it particularly satisfying.
"Twin Peaks" is the change brought to the TV drama market by Robert Iger. This movie-quality TV series can basically be said to have played a great role in promoting the future development of TV dramas, so Robert Iger is very confident in saying this.
Wu Xiaozu affirmed his judgment.
"If I have the chance in the future, I think I will also shoot a TV series."
"That's really great. If there is a chance, I think Wu Ji can cooperate with ABC." Robert Eiger was surprised to come up with such an idea as Wu Xiaozu.
I wish I could make this happen on the spot.
"Of course, but it may not be now." Wu Xiaozu smiled, instead of continuing the topic, but changed his voice and began to get to the point. "I wonder what Robert, what do you think about the development of the film industry?"
"Well……"
Seeing Wu Xiaozu mentioning this topic, Robert Eiger did not answer the first time, but instead pondered for a moment before he expressed his own opinion.
"In my opinion, the development of the film industry will be divided into several parts, roughly divided into two parts: live-action movies and animated movies. Among them, the big cast movies and small-cost movies of live-action movies will form a high-end and low-end match in the market...
I am very much looking forward to the IP of movies. Big cast films will become the most important part of the market, while independent films will become part of the market. However, with the development of independent films, I think major manufacturers will target them... So I am not very optimistic about the development of independent film companies in North America.
If you want to develop, you must continue to expand yourself...and-" Speaking of this, he paused and glanced at Wu Xiaozu.
"It doesn't matter."
"Improvement, if you want to develop in North America, the status of a foreigner is not very good."
Robert Eiger's words are actually quite meaningful, but it can probably be judged that the other party really values his relationship with Wu Xiaozu...
Of course, the most important thing is that the other party's capital composition makes Robert Eiger have to pay attention to it.
Especially from my old classmates, I learned about Zulong Investment’s many layouts and investments in Silicon Valley and Wall Street, and I can feel the other party’s strong strength, especially with the recent “explosive” development of the Internet.
In his opinion, if the other party can really take root, then it may really be something.
Especially if you spend hundreds of millions of dollars to join the "Dream Factory", it is definitely a wonderful move.
In later generations, it is not an exaggeration to say that he led Disney to "glory". Several important acquisitions were all made by him, and he was indeed very good at resource integration.
Wu Xiaozu happened to need his ability and connections.
"Robert, I really hope to work with you. I can offer an annual salary of three times higher than you now and share dividends. You know, I have a lot of sincerity..." Wu Xiaozu issued an invitation for the first time.
"You can integrate the development of the entire entertainment group according to your ideas. You know, in addition to our business in North America, we also have businesses in Asia and Europe. Its overall value is higher than that of ABC today. We have our own distribution channels, production companies, TV stations and media, which can be used by you...it will be created in your hands."
Wu Xiaozu gave the highest courtesy to both fame and fortune.
This also made Robert Eiger very moved.
but……
"Thank you Wu, I can feel your importance to me, which makes me feel terrified and terrified. I understand this sincerity and trust." Robert Eiger took a deep breath, suppressing the Chuchu in his heart, and letting his reason return to his brain. "I think it will take me a certain amount of time to give you an answer."
"Of course, I look forward to your answer." Wu Xiaozu smiled.
Regarding the smiling Mickey Mouse in front of him, he did not aggressively let him make a decision immediately.
This is not ordering takeaway, just order it if you are optimistic... You have to arrange and plot services if you order takeaway~
The other party's reaction was also expected.
At the same time, Robert Eiger also needs time to sort out and understand the tasks he will face.
I can only say that the road is tortuous and the future is bright ~
"Try this..." Putting aside the serious topic, Wu Xiaozu smiled and took the initiative to turn the chat content back.
Just then, the new hand-holding roll was put on.
…
"Does the boss want to continue to make appointments with other candidates?" Lin Xifu saw Wu Xiaozu's face fading, and took the initiative to whisper: "The company also lists several other candidates, and each of them has a resume and resume that is not inferior to him."
Among the company's alternative list, in Lin Xi's opinion, there are no less than three better people than this person named Robert Eiger, and two of them have particularly excellent resumes.
She didn't know why Wu Xiaozu was so concerned about this man who smiled like Mickey Mouse.
After all, in her opinion, if she really wants to choose, the other party is not the only choice.
"You understand very well?"
Wu Xiaozu glanced at Lin Xiqi indifferently, and didn't turn his head back on the car. "A person suitable for the development of the company cannot be seen from his resume. I don't want to hear such words about future CEOs from you."
Lin Xiqiu quickly lowered her head, not daring to argue, and could only follow her step by step. Obviously, Wu Xiaozu's words always reminded her of her positioning.
"Keep his movements at any time, and send him a videotape for every new movie we release. Our external financial reports and public prospectus, and plan also give him a copy at any time."
Naturally, Wu Xiaozu would not give up such talents just because the other party simply "refuses".
It's the art of pulling~~
Robert Eiger is indeed a very important part of Wu Xiaozu's future plan. His ability is not just a film company CEO. In other words, he can even become a leader in the field of future entertainment and culture.
He has this ability.
As for the CEO and president of the company's entertainment business group, it will not make Wu Xiaozu feel unacceptable. Even if Ah San is loyal and capable enough, he wouldn't mind inviting Ah San to be the chief tool guy in the company.
"Continue to pay attention to his dynamics, especially his and Disney trends."
"Okay, BOSS." Awen helped open the car door.
