Chapter 331 Disney Is a Hands-on Tool

Kathleen Kennedy, a woman who had an affair with the young Tausi
Although her name is not common, she is the president of Lucasfilm, with more than 120 Oscar nominations, 77 films, and 30 years of magnificent career experience.

Of course Tao Nannan knows her
And as the president of Lucasfilm, she has a good relationship with MGM, otherwise she would not let Lucas stand for Cornell University.

As for the intrigue in it, Tao Nannan is of course aware of it, but she doesn't want to do so many things.

Different from the high-profile of her brothers, since she was eight years old when she discovered that those big people on TV would try their best to get words out of her mouth because of her father in her mother's hometown, she realized that she and her Different from other children.

A word from her father can make the economy of a certain area of ​​Japan develop rapidly, and it can also bring a company that is on the verge of bankruptcy back to life!

These are all "magic", yes!
Her mother said it was a "magic game" for adults, and since then Tao Nannan has disliked introducing her own family to others.

Only in this way can her life be more peaceful. Tao Nannan looked at Catherine who looked very old opposite her with a serious face: "Grandma Catherine, I know what you mean, but Disney's idea now is not to let Hollywood have another family." Uncontrolled platform, you know that?"

Catherine sighed helplessly when she saw the little girl who looked like a different person inside and out: "I knew that no child born in your kind of family would be simple."

Tao Nannan replied calmly: "If I can, I don't want to participate in this pool of water. I'm not interested in movies. I only like painting!"

"Ugh!"

"Spielberg is truly a genius!"

"But he is not reconciled. We all want to win a chance for him, but Ms. Sophie thinks this kind of thing is normal."

Tao Nannan stared seriously at Catherine's eyes without saying a word.
Catherine on the opposite side looked at Tao Nannan and suddenly felt a little throbbing in her heart. She knew that this was the unique aura of a powerful family.

Catherine, who was defeated, just wanted to speak

"Grandma Catherine, Disney won't want DreamWorks. The current Disney energy is not on you. I prefer Marvel and DC."

"Ask my family has always respected my wishes!"

Although Tao Nannan was very calm when she said these words,
But Catherine's pupils shrank rapidly

She heard a trace of other meanings from Tao Nannan's words!

The current Disney is no longer under the control of Sophie Marceau. It is very likely that all the actions of Disney recently revolve around the will of the little girl in front of her!

No wonder, Peter Lamont had been asking them to come to this school as a teacher training students.

This is not helping the MGM film studio to create blood, but to create a godhead for the little girl in front of me!
"Oh my god!"

"I knew it!"

"I knew it!"

Catherine Kennedy stood there muttering these things in a daze as if she had lost her size, but Tao Nannan never said a word.

Instead, she took a step back, she didn't like to bother to find her.

Standing inside the room, Peter Lamont leaned on a cane in his hand and glanced at Lucas meaningfully: "You are wrong, her father has never missed her in his life, you shouldn't beg her, as Tao Xi's children, they have a strong sense of autonomy."

"So, the youngest candidate for the American Academy has been born!"

Hearing these words, Peter Lamont walked slowly towards the bedroom on crutches, but his voice still answered Lucas' question.

"That's right! The youngest dean! Not the principal, Cornell is Tao Xi's talent cultivation base, and it is also a private Ivy League college."

Lucas looked bitter

He didn't expect Tao Xi's children's education to start at such a young age, after all, Disney is one of the top 500 companies in the world!
But Tao Xi dared to delegate all the rights to his daughter, who was not yet 16 years old at the time. When all the children were still struggling with their studies, Tao Nannan, a genius, had already possessed the ability of photographic memory.

She spent the time she spent studying while practicing drawing and analyzing Disney's dynamics.

And her first task after graduating from university is to acquire the company she is optimistic about. Recently, Marvel and Sony have made a big splash because of the IP Spiderman.

In the media, you come and go, and a group of senior lawyers emerges one after another to serve Disney. Those senior lawyers with an hourly salary of tens of thousands work so hard because a little girl who has just grown up is optimistic about it!
This is really an incomprehensible thing to Lucas, but it all happened in front of him.

"Hey! It's me!"

The voice of Smith Spielberg on the other side of the phone was a little hoarse. After hearing the voice of the old man, he was a little excited: "What's wrong?"

Lucas glanced at Catherine, who was standing under the cypress tree and supported the big tree, and replied: "Failure, that little girl is smarter than we thought, Disney won't buy you, but you can't escape the fate of being bought, Hollywood The Eight Greats are the Eight Greats in any era, and there will be no Nine Greats!"

"understood!"

Smith Spielberg, who hung up the phone, looked at the endless night scene outside the window with a confused face and didn't know what to say.

It can be said that he has enjoyed endless lights and stages throughout his life!

But he failed in his career. Although he founded DreamWorks and survived for so many years under the siege of Hollywood giants, it is something to be proud of outsiders, but in his view he has failed. .

Those big hands hanging over Hollywood are still manipulating his career all the time.

Because of his existence, DreamWorks can create some popular works all the time, but if those producers don't have the names of Hollywood's top eight, then the works he has shot with his heart cannot be released!

He can't commit himself to a wealthy family like James Cameron, he just wants to have his own creative space.

While he was still feeling sorry for the world, his cell phone rang again.

"Hey!"

"Hello, Mr. Smith~"

Smith froze for a moment when he heard the crisp girl's voice on the other end of the phone: "Are you?"

Tao Nannan stood under the school streetlight and asked casually, "You asked Mr. Lucas to be a lobbyist today, which affected my study. Did you not know me so soon?"

"pottery?"

Tao Nannan shrugged casually when she heard this address: "If you are addressing me instead of my father, I am happy to accept your address."

Smith was suddenly at a loss for words about the over-mature little girl on the other side of the phone

But fortunately, he is also a person who has experienced big scenes: "I am sorry for those things that happened, but I really don't want to sell DreamWorks. He is my blood, and"

The street lights downstairs in the dormitory are too bright, and there seem to be a lot of small bugs around.

Tao Nannan waved her hand, but unexpectedly, a voice came from above her head.

"Hey! Nan Nan!"

"I've ordered the family bucket, and it will be here in a while!"

"Come back quickly!"

Tao Nannan's muscles tensed instantly, but the long-winded explanation voice on the other side of the phone continued: "Mr. Smith, I admire your talent. Do you know Netflix?"

Smith was very uncomfortable when the conversation was suddenly interrupted.

But the appearance of the listed company "Netflix" still made him stunned. Although Tao Nannan was still very young, she was qualified to make him think about this sentence seriously.

"Netflix?"

"That's right!"

Netflix, he knows, is an online "monthly payment" rental platform that has risen during the Internet dividend period. With this move, Netflix forcibly tore off a piece of fat from Neil Bianli's body, and also paid himself The market value of the company has reached 4 million US dollars.

But since the year before last, Netflix has started to acquire some movie copyrights. The most surprising thing is that Netflix has moved these movies to the website.

And its market value has repeatedly exceeded 30 billion US dollars, but the recent big moves in Hollywood have made life difficult for Netflix.

Disney's continuous copyright wars and the move of a Marvel comics company to sue Sony have made all pirate dealers panic.

It was at this time that Smith felt a little bit of suffocation.

"The only thing about Netflix that interests me now is his action of moving movies to a computer and watching them online."

"But the problem now is that Hollywood's copyright is very complicated. I have some troubles with a hammer in the east and a stick in the west. If you are interested, Mr. Smith, you can consider joining me!"

Smith was surprised when he heard the little girl's words, and asked, "Join you?"

"That's right, my father will always be my father, and I like the platform I created myself!" Tao Nannan waved to her good friend Chu Tingting with a pure face when she said this.

"You create the platform yourself?"

"That's right, Cornell University is my screenwriting base. I need excellent scripts and talents. With your joining, I can get some high-quality traffic from Google!"

When Tao Nannan said these words

Her eyes seemed to be glowing, I don't know if it was an illusion, when she was laughing, Tao Xi's face overlapped with hers.

If anyone was here, they would definitely mistakenly think they saw Tao Xi.

Tao Nannan who hung up the phone returned to her dormitory excitedly, but Smith still looked gloomy at the scenery outside the window.

Lucas told him that the acquisition of Marvel and DC was Tao Nannan's idea, but the content in Disney's copyright library was no less than that of any large copyright company.

Now Hollywood's copyright war and Disney's move have allowed Smith to vaguely grasp a clue!
Is it possible that Disney is just a tool used by Tao Nannan to practice her skills, and her real purpose is to reshuffle the existing Hollywood model!
And with the emergence of smart phones, it may not be impossible for people to look at the small screen in their hands anytime, anywhere in the future.

Is it possible that the big screen will be impacted by then?
A series of questions kept popping up in his mind, and Smith, who was a little uncomfortable because of the problems of DreamWorks, became more and more energetic.

"Fxxk!"

After thinking about it for most of the night, Smith threw the mobile phone in his hand on the bed, took a shower casually, and drove the car back to the office.

Don't look at people's age, but this time it is an innovation in the industry.

It may not be impossible for him, an entrepreneur who has failed all his life, to stand in front of the stage again in this opportunity!

Smith, who came to the company, looked at the dark DreamWorks and was not angry. The recently released "Tropic Thunder" made the company very busy.

Smith, sitting alone at his desk, turned on his computer and kept flipping through Netflix's webpage.

You must know that Netflix is ​​now a listed company. If you want to control Netflix at this time, then Netflix's stock market will definitely fluctuate.

But Smith couldn't find any clues. In addition to small fluctuations in Netflix's stock market, his website data is also normal.

"Sigh~"

"Where is the problem?"

After getting up early in the morning, Tao Nannan left a book and a borrowing card for her best friend and left the dormitory.

A healthy body and a good physique have always been Tao Xi's requirements for these children, so Tao Nannan also started her own exercise early in the morning.

But when she just ran to the school playground, she saw a little old man.

"Hey!"

"Peter told me that you would come here for a run every morning!" Smith greeted Tao Nannan proactively with bloodshot eyes but a hint of a smile.

"Oh! It's hard work for you at your age." Tao Nannan stopped in her tracks out of politeness and answered Smith.

"I'm going to sell DreamWorks, and I expect to get paid about 4 million US dollars. How much share can I get?" Smith looked at Tao Nannan seriously.

"I thought you had to think about it for a long time."

"I'd like to believe in a kid who's been practicing Disney since he was 16."

Tao Nannan raised her eyebrows habitually: "I will not participate in the operation of the company. Counting management shares + technology shares + capital shares, you can hold 7%, and I will take 3% of the shares to set up a company." Film screenwriter funds to invest in some TV dramas."

"TV drama?"

"That's right, TV series can prolong the user's stay and activity. I need to consider it from the perspective of profitability, and you should consider it from the perspective of operation."

While Smith was thinking, Tao Nannan said jokingly, "My father is an old man. If he knew that my first partner was you, he would probably wake up laughing from a dream."

Smith didn't hesitate for long

He smiled and stretched out his left hand: "Happy cooperation!"
