MTL - Heads Up Hollywood-Chapter 1192 tool
"Let each take what they need."
Michael Ovitz looked calm, as if he was talking about other people's affairs, absent-minded.
Of course Dunn knows that everyone gets what they need.
Otherwise, why would the splendid Kate Beckinsale marry you a bad old man? Isn't it because of your status and influence in the Hollywood industry that you can let her live the life of a lady and better promote her career development?
This is also normal.
There are too many young and beautiful girls marrying old men.
But what Michael Ovitz said next made Dunn feel cold in his heart and felt the bastard, indifference and inhumanity of this guy.
"Ovitz's name may be well-known in the Hollywood industry. But in the world, Kate Beckinsale's name is more well-known. If Legendary Pictures wants to have higher attention and market appeal, it depends on My personal reputation is definitely not good, I'm not Bill Gates, I'm not Buffett, I'm not a star entrepreneur. But Kate Beckinsale can, through her news exposure, can increase the attention of Legendary Pictures. My wife and I... ex-wife of course, we talked and she understands what I'm thinking. Otherwise we wouldn't have a smooth divorce."
Dunn couldn't believe it, "You treat marriage as a tool to make money."
"is it not OK?"
Michael Ovitz asked back.
Dunn was speechless.
I can only secretly sigh.
This guy is really uncompromising!
Yes, only this kind of person can fight a **** path in a traditional enterprise whose market has long been saturated.
Why isn't Tang En's road to success like this?
The difference is that Michael Ovitz's two ventures, first CAA and then Legendary Pictures, have made extensive use of the "woman" tool.
Dunn relies on foresight.
He's not going to use women as tools to add drama to his career success.
At this moment, Dunn also understood why Michael Eisner invited Michael Ovitz to be the president of Disney with a lot of money, and then fired him at a huge cost not long after.
The values of the two are completely different!
Michael Eisner's personal life is very decent, and the corporate values he implements are very decent!
After Disney acquired ABC, there was a series of turmoil. Why? Because Michael Eisner picked up a machete and cut off a lot of ABC's profitable TV shows, this is the loss.
Because the scale of these shows is too large, the values conflict with Disney.
Michael Eisner wants Disney to make money in a positive, healthy, and upward industry, rather than relying on marginal content.
This is called doing something and refraining from doing something, and you can't touch the principle of making money.
In contrast, Michael Ovitz is at the other extreme. He does everything for success!
With such a huge gap in value concept, it is reasonable for the two sides to break up.
Dunn sighed and waved his hand, "Forget it, this matter... It's mainly up to Kate, not what we said."
Michael Ovitz said disapprovingly: "Kate will understand, just like Julia. Working hard in this circle, there are no outside rules and regulations. In Vanity Fair, where money is drunk, setting a bottom line is asking for trouble."
Dunn hesitated for a while, then shook his head, "Let's talk about it later!"
Michael Ovitz smiled and said: "Isn't Natalie pregnant? I heard that I rarely go out every day? It's just right, let Kate take Lily over as a guest, let Natalie feel the atmosphere of the child in advance, and make a noise ."
Tang En felt a little helpless, "Do whatever you want! Who knows what will happen more than ten years later? It doesn't matter."
Michael Ovitz smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, I'm good at this kind of thing. I'll make arrangements and make sure it's all right. By the way, I heard that you and Mrs. Douglas also often date?"
"you know?"
"Kate told me."
Dunn felt a little helpless.
There was a time when he regularly dated Catherine Zeta-Jones and Rachel Weisz. Later, Rachel Weisz's life was stable, she was pregnant and had a baby, Dunn excluded her and replaced her with Kate Beckinsale.
Unexpectedly, Kate Beckinsale wouldn't hide this secret dating from Ovitz.
Sure enough, the normal husband and wife relationship cannot be used to limit their standard Vanity Fair marriage union.
"You guys are really frank." Dunn's tone was a little weird.
Michael Ovitz didn't care, and said casually, "Then I'll arrange it. Don't worry, I'll tell them."
"Let's go! I'm going to the hot spring!"
Dunn put down his club and stretched his back. "By the way, there is one more thing. If we solve the problem this time, we must come up with a solution to the Hollywood Internet in response to Silicon Valley. At that time, it will depend on your ability. Can't get a piece of the pie."
Michael Ovitz said: "If it is your proposal, Legendary Pictures will definitely have the opportunity to participate."
Tang En was startled, and laughed twice.
Then he waved at him, walked over like Blake Lively, and shouted at her from a distance, "Stop fighting, go to the hot spring!"
"OK!"
Blake Lively was excited.
Beverly Hills is a mountain, and if there are mountains, there will naturally be springs.
As the most well-known and high-end leisure club here, the Country Club has created a natural hot spring in the Beverly Hills area.
But Dunn doesn't believe it, it's just propaganda and hype.
This is not a volcanic crater, where did the hot spring come from? It should be natural spring water, artificially heated.
Even so, it was enough to attract countless people.
Los Angeles receives tens of millions of foreign tourists every year, but it is impossible for these people to have the opportunity to enter a country club, nor even if they have money.
Not to mention foreigners, even if they are Americans, they need elites with certain social status and fame to have the opportunity to come in.
Too many customers will affect the quality of service.
It is better to be short than to waste.
The country club in Beverly Hills is too famous, and limited reception of guests is a major way to maintain a high-end image.
Blake Lively had heard about the name of the country club for a long time. This was the first time he had come here. He seemed very excited, and ran over to grab Dunn's arm.
Unexpectedly, Kate Beckinsale took it easy, walked to the other side, and took Dunn's other arm.
Blake Lively's eyes widened immediately, and it was a little incomprehensible. He couldn't help asking, "Where's Mr. Ovitz? Doesn't he take a hot spring?"
Tang En said, "He's very busy, so he's back to work."
"what?"
Blake Lively didn't react for a moment.
On the other side, Kate Beckinsale said with a coquettish smile: "He's getting old, and he's dizzy after taking a hot shower. Let's go three."
"Oh."
Blake Lively blinked a few times, a bold idea came to his mind, and then he immediately rejected it.
Shouldn't it be possible?
That's Mr. Ovitz!
Hollywood tycoon!
Kate Beckinsale seemed to see her thoughts and said with a half-smile: "Blake~www.novelbuddy.com~ When Dunn and I were good, you didn't know each other. We are old friends, today It was to help my old man entertain Dunn."
Blake Lively is very smart, his eyes roamed the faces of Dunn and Kate Beckinsale a few times, and he reacted instantly.
I felt a little cold in my body.
It turns out that the big star Kate Beckinsale is just a tool for the friendly exchanges between Dunn and Michael Ovitz!
She suddenly felt a little sad.
Is this the fate of the lady?
What's even sadder is that Kate Beckinsale doesn't seem to be ashamed, but proud of her, holding Dunn's arm, how close she wants to be, and even angering and acting coquettishly from time to time, especially to please people.
In a way, Blake Lively and Kate Beckinsale made the same choices.
Blake Lively chose a lot of women, but the young and handsome Dunn.
Kate Beckinsale chose Michael Ovitz, who is not many women, but is very old.
They are all in pursuit of a better life, and they follow men with obvious shortcomings.
The difference is that Dunn is very domineering towards women. He strictly forbids his women to have intimate contacts with any man.
Michael Ovitz, however, took his woman as a tool to please others and offered it up.
At this moment, Blake Lively secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, she followed Dunn.
