Made in Hollywood

The bright sunlight illuminated every inch of the hotel plaza, but Michael Eisner, who walked out of the hotel, felt that the world had suddenly become much darker. Standing in front of his car, his brows almost became a pimple, even if the assistant pulled it. He didn't even notice the door.

The assistant waited for a while, and couldn't help but reminded, Chairman...

Michael Eisner came back to his senses, bent over and got into the car, and said to the assistant who got up to the co-pilot, Call Cook Dick and ask him to come see me.

After speaking, he slowly closed his eyes, the calm on his face gradually disappeared, and his expression became particularly solemn.

The reason why he did this is related to the resolution of the just-concluded Walt Disney shareholders meeting.

At this shareholders meeting, under the instigation of Roy Disney, Disney shareholders demanded that someone must be responsible for the failure of the Disneyland project and the investigation by Customs and Border Protection, and pointed the finger at his side.

The first thing that shareholders value is income. The failure of the Disneyland project and the investigation by the Customs and Border Protection have had an extremely adverse impact on the entire Walt Disney Group. The most obvious manifestation is in the stock market. to the nerves of shareholders.

After all, Michael Eisner is the chairman and CEO of the group company. No matter from which perspective, he needs to explain to the shareholders.

And he must also make an account, otherwise most of the shareholders with voting rights will definitely drive him out of office.

In order to quell the anger of shareholders and to stabilize his position, Michael Eisner could only choose to sacrifice his right and left hands. Cook Dick, the president of Warner Disney who had been in office for only one year, became the victim of the shareholders' meeting.

Robert? Iger successfully sought the position of group president.

This result was something that Michael Eisner didn't want to see anyway, but it was a forced choice. Someone had to be responsible for those two serious incidents. And the portion should be heavy enough, Cook? Dick is almost the only candidate.

Could it be that he should resign himself as chairman and CEO?

And even if Robert Iger becomes the president of Walt Disney, he won't have much substantial power. He has been operating at Disney for so many years, and the triangular power structure of president, CEO and chairman has long been out of balance. The power was concentrated in his own hands.

but. Michael? Eisner also saw the crisis, Robert? Iger is obviously not only behind the Disney family represented by Roy? Disney.

If you want to stabilize your position, you must cut off the hand behind Robert Iger. He knows where the hand comes from.

The car drove directly into a clubhouse, where Michael Eisner met Cooke Dick in the private lounge of the clubhouse.

The former Walt Disney president had a gloomy face, but he did his best to maintain his composure. Greeted Michael Eisner and sat down again.

Michael Eisner sat on the chair next to him and said slowly, You rest for a while, it won't be the end of it.

I want to accompany my family too. Cook Dick's words were a little difficult. How could he easily accept the feeling of being out of balance when he fell from a high position, but he understood Michael Eisner's behavior and just said. Laura has been planning a round-the-world trip for a long time, and this time it will come true.

Don't be discouraged. Michael Eisner said confidently. As long as the hand behind Robert Iger is cut off, the situation at Disney will not change in any way.

He... Cook Dick knew who he was talking about and sighed, He's not easy to deal with. With the precedent of Iron Man, we can't use the same method.

Such a method can't be used a second time. Michael Eisner's eyes showed a bit of grimness, Duke Rosenberg is clear-headed and determined, but it doesn't mean that everyone around him is That's it.

Cook Dick couldn't help raising his eyebrows, Michael, you mean...

Some people have been by his side for so many years, but they are still in the same position, and they must have some ideas.

Suddenly standing up and walking around the room, Michael Eisner said sharply, Ron Mayer could betray CAA and Michael Ovitz, Duke Rosenberg for the high position of the media company. The people around you might not make the same choice.”

He walked over and patted Cook Dick's shoulder lightly, You should rest for a while, this matter also needs your support.

As usual, Cook Dick said without any hesitation, I see.

Michael Eisner left the club first. Cook Dick looked at his back and stood at the door for a while. The unwillingness in his eyes gradually revealed. His backer did not hesitate. Treat him as a victim to secure his position!

No one likes the feeling of being betrayed, and Cook Dick is no exception. He just wants to regain his power in Hollywood. Who else can he rely on but Michael Eisner?

After walking out of the clubhouse, Cook Dick got into the car, and just as he was about to start it, the phone suddenly rang.

Glancing at the number, he pressed the answer button, and there was a familiar voice inside.

Sorry Cook, I just got the news of the Disney shareholders meeting, it's so unfair to you...

Is it fair? It's really unfair that Michael Eisner loses out in competition with Duke Rosenberg and Time Warner and has to pay for it himself.

Cook, what are your plans for the next step? I don't think you have to rely entirely on Michael Eisner, I have an old friend here who wants to talk to you...

The other party said a lot. If it was in the past, if it was bad for Disney and Michael Eisner, Cook Dickley would ignore it, but it is different now.

If you're interested, you can come and meet him in Burbank, the call ended.

Hanging up, Cook Dick hesitated for a few minutes, then started the car and drove onto the road to Burbank.

In Burbank Warner Studios, after more than a month of busy work, Duke's fine-cutting work was basically completed, and some special effects were added to it. After leaving the editing room, he went to the sound effect room next to him. Hans Zimmer I just had someone send me some samples of the main soundtrack.

The soundtrack sent is mainly divided into three aspects, involving The Joker, Harvey Dante and Bruce Wayne.

Duke had Charles Rowan and Anna Prinz brought in, and the sound engineer played the original soundtrack.

The Joker's main soundtrack is played first, and as Hans Zimmer told Duke, he uses a lot of suppressed electronic music to highlight the Joker's evil.

Although a layman with music, Duke has made so many films that he has some knowledge of soundtracks.

Full of oppression is the distinctive feature of this clown-themed soundtrack. It uses a seemingly incongruous monophonic pitch, combined with special sound effects produced by electronic synthesizers, to directly give people a strong auditory stimulation.

Hans Zimmer clearly made heavy use of cold tones to create the dark atmosphere of the soundtrack, with lots of incongruent chords and weird melodies that bordered on insane, plus an extraordinarily rich electronic element, and even analog stopwatch countdowns and explosion-like explosions. The sound effects are integrated into it - the mixed sound of various sounds not only makes this electronic sound effect describing the clown not weak in hearing, but also makes the feelings more full and real.

Then comes Batman's background soundtrack. This soundtrack inherits the tone of War Hour, but is richer and more gorgeous. The violin keeps marching forward with a sixteenth-note jumping bow, strong and powerful, with percussion instruments. The sense of urgency created shows a mood of instability and unease.

Coupled with the long notes that the strings stretch out, it's a complete release of passion, and with the accelerated Batman theme with a strong sense of rhythm, it is full of movement.

This soundtrack combines the effects of electronic music and orchestral music, which is quite commercial and modern.

Duke has cooperated with Hans Zimmer many times, and he knows that this practice often occurs in many of Hans Zimmer's works. The soundtrack uses a lot of electronic sounds and the rapid transition between the orchestral music is quite rapid and imperceptible. Make the music go smoothly.

The last playing is Harvey Dante's background music. This soundtrack uses a lot of beautiful piano solos and a lot of Batman-themed variations. It is obviously divided into two parts, just like Harvey Dante's life. .

However, even in the bright first half, the piano melody of the soundtrack uses a string of cool notes, and the melody is quite divergent, as if telling a poignant story.

The room returned to silence, and Duke turned to Charles Rowan and Anna Prinz and asked, How are you feeling?

I think it's good. Anna Prinz nodded. Consistently high standards.

Seeing that Charles Rowan also showed approval, Duke said to an assistant, Inform Hans Zimmer that I am very satisfied with the soundtrack, and let him finish it as soon as possible, no later than early April.

The assistant was busy making a phone call. Duke and the three of them left the sound effect room and were about to go to ILM's special effects studio. Suddenly, there was a rush of high heels landing on the stairs. Tina Fey then came out of the stairwell. turned out.

She walked extremely fast, as if the Hetentian Gao on her feet had no effect, and her expression was a little strange, as if she had encountered something incredible.

Before reaching the Duke and three, Tina Fey's cell phone rang again, she glanced down, and answered the phone first.

Duke could hear Tina Fey's words, Confirmed? Did you make a mistake? I know, I'll let Duke know.

what happened? Duke frowned slightly. (To be continued ~^~)
