Hollywood Tycoon [US Entertainment + Business War]

If you are not an American, maybe you only know that there are five major TV networks in the United States, but in fact, according to the restrictions of the US Federal Communications Commission, the five major TV networks can only require their TV stations to simulcast programs for about three hours a day. Either buy related content through programming syndicates, or broadcast their own shows.

Generally speaking, news programs are the cheapest, especially local news programs.So basically you turn on a TV during non-prime hours, and most of the over-the-air TV stations are broadcasting all kinds of weird local news, such as so-and-so grandma’s cat is lost, or so-and-so grandpa can’t find it home News like the road.Occasionally, if there is a fire or robbery news, then the major TV stations are almost like the news of the US presidential campaign for online analysis and follow-up reports, let alone one of the most famous rich men in the United States, a Hollywood entertainment tycoon—— Jed Sherman suffered a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital, and his life and death are unknown.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the road in front of the UCLA Los Angeles Medical Center was already crowded with SNG cars from various TV stations.Since the Los Angeles government stipulates that some public facilities can deny access to journalists, the hospital is one of them, so the SNG car had to be parked far away from the hospital.Each TV station is also divided into two groups. One group of anchors stands in the SNG car to film the UCLA Los Angeles Medical Center from a distance and review the general situation of the incident, while the other group of reporters film all the people entering and exiting at the entrance and exit of the hospital, hoping to capture relevant personnel.

The vast majority of journalists know that Jed Sherman actually has no guardian in the general sense, but according to relevant information, Jed's close friend and personal lawyer John is his "executor", so Most of the reporters are waiting for John to arrive.However, it was the veterans like Jia Fei, Lansing, and Meribo who felt the medical center at the first time. Because they have been working in Los Angeles for a long time, they rushed here as soon as they received the news.According to San Francisco's Wired news, Shannette, who originally planned to go to Sherman Interactive Entertainment Group in Mountain View, also rushed back from the Bay Area immediately.

After inquiring about the news from the main station, Jia Fei and others immediately sensed the operating room of the cardiac surgery. At this time, Jed's operation was in progress, and the nurse who entered and left had become the key person for the three to inquire about the news.They can't be blamed for being worried. The only person in the Sherman Group is Jed. If there is any unfortunate news about Jed, then the Sherman Group will basically be on the verge of bankruptcy.With the qualifications of Jia Fei and others and their performance in Sherman Film and Television Entertainment Group, they are not worried about not being able to find their next job, but they are happy to work for Jed.

Not only did Jed give them generous treatment and due respect, but what was more important was the blueprint that Jed had planned for them.Jed said in an internal meeting that the core companies within the company in the future will be Marvel Entertainment and Muse Culture, because comics and novels adapted into movies will be the future trend, so the company will combine promising comics and The film and television adaptation rights and even the copyright of novels are under the banner; while the ambition for TV is not only to occupy its own position in cable TV and satellite TV, but the most important thing is to be based on the leading position in future network TV.Jade not only envisioned this, but also began to push Sherman Film and Television Entertainment Group to do so.But just after such a big plan was implemented, the promoters fell, which made it difficult for Jia Fei and others to accept it anyway.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for the rescue operation. When Shannette and John arrived, the doctor announced that the operation was a success. "It is my pleasure to report that Mr. Sherman is out of danger, but we recommend that he stay in the hospital for two weeks for observation. --Also, we would like to know who is Mr. Sherman's family or guardian, and I have some words to share with you. He said."

John nodded and said, "Doctor, I'm Mr. Sherman's personal lawyer and executor. I think I can talk to you."

The doctor shrugged and said, "No problem, just go to my office with me."

After learning that Jed was fine, Jia Fei and others were naturally overjoyed, and Shannity also led the senior management of the film and television entertainment group to hold a meeting in the open space in front of a cafe opposite the medical center. Looking at the cameras of countless TVs, he said: "We are very happy to announce to all fans who love Mr. Jed Sherman's works that Mr. Jed Sherman is out of danger and he will wake up within the next 24 hours. However According to the doctor's orders, he will remain in the hospital for two weeks for observation."

Although Jed is not everyone's favorite person, it is good news that a pretty good person has not been called away by death.There was applause at the scene, and then a reporter asked: "Ms. Shannetti, what we want to know is, what is wrong with Mr. Sherman's hospitalization this time? Will he do it again in the future? He can still manage the company in the future." Is it?"

Shannetti frowned slightly. The doctor said that the cause still needs to be observed, but it is estimated that it is caused by congenital heart valve insufficiency.This disease is not a big problem when you are young, but it will become a potential time bomb as you get older.More importantly, people suffering from this disease should not engage in heavy physical and mental activities, and must have more rest time than ordinary people.The doctor's statement is tantamount to forcing Jed to retire, but this is absolutely unacceptable to Jed.However, the doctor also gave treatment advice, which can be repaired with artificial valves or pig valves. The success rate of such operations is still very high.But the doctor also said that the sooner such an operation is performed, the better for the patient's recovery, and the patient should rest for at least half a year after the operation.Whether he can return to work in the end still needs a detailed evaluation by a doctor.

These words are naturally something Shannette cannot say, otherwise tomorrow will be the day of the collapse of Sherman's major stocks.Shannetti smiled and said, "A detailed diagnosis report will not be available until a week later, but the doctor assures that it is not a serious problem."

Jed was lying on the hospital bed. He already knew the doctor's diagnosis report and treatment opinion. Although the final diagnosis would take some time, Jed basically knew that the diagnosis report was the final diagnosis opinion.Regarding death, Jed didn't think he was detached.I am just an ordinary person, how can I not be afraid of death?The opinion given by the doctor is naturally to treat it as soon as possible, and Jed also agrees with this opinion, but once he stops, who will give him the high-speed train of the Sherman Group to make him feel at ease?

"Before my surgery, I have to set up the company's structure." Jed called Shannette and John over, "The company can't always rely on me alone to move forward. In many cases, I should give them some It's done. For the Sherman Group, I remain chairman, Shannette becomes president, and John, Jaffe, Meribor, Eric Schmidt, John Chambers, and Alan Schwartz Promoted to vice president. Sherman Film and Television Entertainment Group has me as the chairman of the board of directors, John as the president, Jia Fei as the chief executive officer and responsible for the film and television production business, and Mai Ruibo as the chief operating officer and responsible for the distribution business. Warner Dongfeng Broadcasting Corporation People from Warner Entertainment Group will serve as the chairman, but Lansing must serve as the CEO in the past. The Asia Broadcasting Group is still attended by Mr. Lin Baixin, Mr. Li Tailin as the CEO, and Mr. Ha Jinyeol as the general manager of the Korean company. Wang Kejie will be the general manager of the Taiwan company, and Park Ming-soo will be the general manager of the film and television production company. Lin Jianyue will continue to be the chairman of Media Asia Entertainment Group, and the CEO will be handed over to Mr. Wei Jiahui. Sherman Music Entertainment Group, Sherman Interactive Entertainment Group, Sherman Communications Technology Group, and Sherman Financial Investment Group all have me as the chairman and John as the president, but the actual responsible CEOs are handed over to David Geffen, Eric Schmidt, John Chambers and Alan Schwartz are responsible. During my operation and recovery, John will be responsible for the daily administrative work, and the professional and technical work will be handed over to a special person in charge. Unfortunately, the internal affairs have not been cleared up yet, so I will temporarily Rest for a while."

Of course, Shannity knew that Jed was worried about the leak of the company's internal secrets again, but at this time she could only comfort her: "It's okay, anyway, the key departments have been handed over to the internal security department. Except for the internal security department, according to your We have also set up an intelligence collection department and a secret control department, which are responsible for external intelligence collection and internal intelligence control, and they are also beginning to come in handy. Moreover, the reward orders we issued on the road have also played a role. At present, we are also There are traces."

"That's good." Jed nodded, and he also knew that there was no time to rush. "I will issue the Ren order tomorrow."

Shannetti nodded in agreement, and with the announcement of a series of appointments within the Sherman Group, it naturally played a good role. The "Wall Street Journal" commented, "The success of the Sherman Group depends on the success of Mr. Jed Sherman alone, but this is not an attitude that a company should maintain for a long time. From the internal adjustment of the Sherman Group We can see a few things. First, Jed Sherman no longer directly controls the company, but hides behind the scenes to control the overall situation of the company; second, we can see that the relationship between Jed, Shannette and John is still close , this is a stabilizing news for the future development of the Sherman Group; third, we found that all the core veterans of the Sherman Group were promoted to the management this time, which means that this is the Sherman Group An internal act of reward. The owner is willing to delegate power, the management is united and stable, and the veterans are appeased and rewarded... In summary, even if Mr. Sherman has an operation tomorrow, it will not have any adverse effects on the company. "

At the same time, Jed also announced his condition and surgery plan on his blog, and said, "This is an uncomplicated operation, but I do need to rest for a while. Fortunately, I don't have many plans for this year. I'll be back with Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets at the end of the year!"

On the day Jed entered the operating room, the Oscars were held as scheduled.Of course, the film of the Sherman Group was once again "overwhelmed by the heat".But this time, no one from Sherman Company refuted it, because everyone was waiting for the news of Jed's surgery at the UCLA Los Angeles Medical Center.As for what the Oscars think about our film, that doesn't really matter to the Sherman Group folks.It is important that their helmsman recovers.
