Chapter 1696 Slap in the face

Jim Giannopros never thought that Kim Yu-fan would really be so disrespectful to him. Doesn’t Kim Yu-fan know that he is Jim Giannopros, the chairman and CEO of 20th Century Fox, can he dominate the entire Twilight movie series?

Especially Kim Yu-fan's identity as an Asian, and Kim Yu-fan dug a hole for 20th Century Fox, which led to almost every "Twilight" movie series that would steal almost 100 million US dollars in revenue for Kim Yu-fan. This made Jim Giannopos a little dissatisfied with Kim Yu-fan, but because of the high box office of the "Twilight" movie series, it was also able to make money for 20th Century Fox.

But now, Kim Yu-fan's words seemed to be scruples, immediately aroused the anger in Jim Giannopos's heart.

"Haha, Kim, it seems you are very dissatisfied." Jim Giannopros narrowed his eyes and looked at Kim Yu-fan carefully. His tone was calm, but full of anger and threatening tone.

"Of course, do you think I should be very happy? My movie was released in a full month in advance. If it was because of director Li An's movie, then I had nothing to say. After all, no matter how conceited I am, at least now I know that I cannot compare with director Li An. But the problem is that the movie was released in a month in advance. No one, as the director, the screenwriter and the starring actor, and the entire crew, knew about this. I even knew yesterday morning that the movie was about to premiere today, and I also wanted to participate. What did you think this is."

Jim Giannopros squinted his eyes and looked at Kim Yu-fan for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed: "Okay, it seems that you still have a lot of dissatisfaction, why don't we find a place to talk."

Although Kim Yu-fan is not an internationally renowned director like Director Lee An, with the movie series of "Twilight" and the role of Edward, Kim Yu-fan can be said to be the prince in the minds of female movie fans around the world, and has a great influence in the minds of female movie fans.

Especially today, now, when "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse" was released, countless female fans came to the scene, and more importantly, there were many media. Jim Giannopros didn't want the unpleasantness between himself and Kim Yu-fan to be discovered by the media and then reported it out. What consequences will be caused? Jim Giannopros doesn't know.

The only thing that is certain is that the influence of "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse" will lead to an infinite expansion of this matter. The imagination and reputation of 20th Century Fox will be affected. It is estimated that it will be difficult for Kim Yu-fan to continue working with 20th Century Fox in the future. This also means that there will be very big problems in the last two movies of "Twilight".

Although Kim Yu-fan is not as important as director Lee An in Jim Giannopros's heart, it is undeniable that the box office of the "Twilight" movie series is good, and female fans are very good. Each movie will bring hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue to 20th Century Fox. With such a huge income, Jim Giannopros will naturally not be indifferent.

Moreover, in essence, this incident was indeed a bit too much for Twentieth Century Fox and did not say hello to the crew of "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse". This is indeed very rude, and it can even be said to be an excessive thing. Kim Yu-fan is still young. Since he is a young man, it is normal for him to have such a big reaction and dissatisfaction.

As if worried that Kim Yu-fan would not give her face, Jim Giannopros continued: "Let's go, let's find a quiet place to talk about this matter first. No matter what, without the conflict between us, I believe you don't want the media and others to find that you have had an unpleasant relationship with me, after all, this is not a good thing for the movie. What's more, there is no need for some things. If you have a clear and complete conflict, that's fine, right?"

Kim Yu-fan looked at Jim Giannopros deeply, and then suddenly laughed: "Okay, since that's the case, then let's have a good talk. You can find a place first, I'll arrange it, and then come to find you."

"No problem!" Jim Giannopros smiled and nodded, then hugged each other and left with Kim Yu-fan as if they were very happy and had a good relationship.

Jim Giannoporus, Kim Yu-fan couldn't help but sneer, because Kim Yu-fan had already made a decision in his heart that he would have to suffer this loss. After all, nothing is useful and there is no way to say it now. However, he can eat this loss, but 20th Century Fox must provide some supplements and guarantees. This is Kim Yu-fan's bottom line.

If Twentieth Century Fox can't do this, if Jim Giannopros disagrees, then there is nothing to say on both sides. Kim Yu-fan is waiting for Jim Giannopros and 20th Century Fox to suppress and ban them, and then rely on the script to find a new way out in Hollywood.

If it really doesn't work, Kim Yu-hwan will never return to Asia and will not continue to finish in the United States. If he does not enter Hollywood, this will have no impact on Kim Yu-hwan's status in Asia. After all, the three movies "Twilight" that he has made now are enough to make Kim Yu-hwan become the best Asian actors in Hollywood. None of them, at least the box office of this movie is enough to instantly kill any Hollywood Asian actors' results in Hollywood.

Therefore, Kim Yu-hwan did not intend to compromise, after all, Kim Yu-hwan's personality is not a compromise. Speaking of which, isn't it difficult to say hello to the crew of "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse". Perhaps Kim Yu-hwan would not agree at the beginning, but if it was director Lee An, Kim Yu-hwan would eventually choose to give in.

Although Kim Yu-hwan doesn't like to compromise, he is not a person who doesn't know how to advance or retreat. Since he knows it's useless, why waste your saliva and go through trouble? It makes both sides not good-looking.

Kim Yu-fan first found Stewart Christine and deputy director Katherine Hardwick, and after chatting with the two of them for a few simple words, he handed over the scene to them. Kim Yu-fan turned around and went to find Jim Giannopros, and under the leadership of the staff, he found Jim Giannopros as soon as possible, right in a small private room in the China Grand Theater.

The private room was not big, and it looked like there were only twenty or thirty seats, surrounded by an oval wooden table in an orderly manner, which was obviously a place for people to have a meeting. When Kim Yu-fan walked in, he found that Jim Giannopros was sitting there alone in the room, leisurely and contentment. After seeing himself walking in, he raised his hand to him, which was considered to be a greeting.

Looking at Jim Giannopros' leisurely and contented look, Kim Yu-fan couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It was obvious that until now, Jim Giannopros still didn't take himself seriously, or he felt that he would have been determined to take care of himself, otherwise he wouldn't have been so leisurely and comfortable.

If it were someone else, he would definitely look serious and think about how to solve this problem. Then look at Jim Giannopros now. He either had been prepared for a long time, or he did not take Kim Yu-fan and this matter to heart.

Although no matter which situation is, it is not a good situation for Kim Yu-fan, and it will stimulate his anger and dissatisfaction.

Originally, he planned to listen to Jim Giannopros' explanation, but now seeing Jim Giannopros' expressions and reactions, Kim Yu-fan couldn't help but sneer, and his thoughts of having a good talk with Jim Giannopros were completely extinguished.

Although Kim Yu-fan was not happy with making way for director Lee An’s movies, he had no choice but to accept them helplessly. After all, director Lee An’s fame and status in Hollywood, including his achievements, is better than himself. It is normal for 20th Century Fox to choose Director Lee An instead of himself.

After all, if it were Kim Yu-hwan himself, if he were in South Korea, he would definitely pay more attention to big-name directors such as Kang Di-gyu, rather than a new director who just graduated from school. This is a fact.

But what made Kim Yu-fan angry was that "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse" was released a full month in advance. Twentieth Century Fox did not say hello to anyone in the crew of "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse". It was completely like 20th Century Fox would do whatever he wanted and didn't care about the feelings of the crew of "Twilight? Lunar Eclipse". This was a bit too much, and it was natural for Kim Yu-fan to be angry.

Since Jim Giannopros was calm and calm and leisurely, Kim Yu-fan had nothing to say, so he also looked careless and sat down opposite Jim Giannopros, without saying a word, took out his phone and started playing. He also played the game with no face and turned on the volume to the maximum so that Jim Giannopros, who was sitting opposite, could hear it.

Jim Giannopros did hear it. Jim Giannopros, who was originally very leisurely, did not say anything to him after seeing Kim Yu-fan come in. Instead, he sat opposite him and played mobile games carelessly, without taking himself seriously at all. This made Jim Giannopros angry.

"Kim, you're a little too much." Jim Giannopros said with a gloomy face as he looked at Kim Yu-fan, "Maybe, you think you have really become a big Hollywood star with the "Twilight" movie series, and you have started to play big names. You dare not be afraid of me taking it seriously."

Finally, Jim Giannopros looked at Kim Yu-fan with a wicked smile: "Kim, believe it or not, don't think you have achieved some results now, but as long as I want, I promise that you will not be able to make a move in Hollywood. You must know that there are many talented people in Hollywood, but the final word is our eight major Hollywood film companies. No matter who you are, what you are, or even Steven Spielberg, you don't have the qualifications to say in front of our film companies. After all, you are working for us, and they are temporary workers. If we are happy, we will give you some chance and give you some money to make movies. If you are unhappy, you will kick you out directly. This is a very simple thing, and it is also common. I don't know if you want to try it."

Kim Yu-fan laughed: "Jim Giannopros, you said something a little too much. Do you know that your words will completely prevent you from gaining a foothold in Hollywood? That's right, you Jim Giannopros is the chairman and CEO of 20th Century Fox, but when you offend the directors and actors of the entire Hollywood, even if you have money, you will not be able to continue making movies."

Kim Yu-fan looked at Jim Giannopros and smiled: "If Twentieth Century Fox is rich and no one makes a movie, then how embarrassing will be 20th Century Fox, one of the eight major Hollywood film companies, then, and the overall impact will be absolutely deadly for Twentieth Century Fox. If there is no director or actor willing to take on the script of Twentieth Century Fox, I believe that investors will definitely lose confidence in Twentieth Century Fox completely. At that time, Twentieth Century Fox shares will plummet, which is destined."

"When Twentieth Century Fox shares plummeted because of your words. In this case, even if you are the chairman and CEO of Twentieth Century Fox, you may not be able to sit steadily. Not only will you step down, but you will even be kicked out of Twentieth Century Fox by the angry Twentieth Century Fox. For example, Apple's Jobs back then, who knows?"

Jim Giannopros shrugged calmly: "Maybe, as you said, these things may happen, but who knows, let alone what I said, then who knows!"

"Yes, I originally thought that as the CEO of Twentieth Century Fox, you should be a very smart and cunning person. Now it seems that I am overestimating you. My dear Jim, do you really think I just took out my phone just to play games and play psychological warfare with you?"

Looking at Jim Giannopros with a calm face, Kim Yu-fan immediately laughed, and then waved his cell phone casually at Jim Giannopros and said nothing, because although Jim Giannopros is old, he is not too confused yet, and he will definitely understand what he means.

Jim Giannopros certainly understood Kim Yu-fan's meaning. When he heard Kim Yu-fan's words, especially when he saw the phone in Kim Yu-fan's hand, his face suddenly changed.

If what he said just now was recorded by Kim Yu-fan, as the recording was released, even if he tried his best to save it, he would probably have to pay a lot of money. Moreover, if Kim Yu-fan said that he would take out his mobile phone to play games from the beginning, and just dig a hole for himself and wait for him to jump, then Kim Yu-fan would be considered terrible. A terrible opponent would not give him any chance to save it.

Once his words are exposed, Jim Giannopros can be sure that by then many Hollywood directors and actors, especially those big-name directors and actors, will definitely feel resentful to themselves because of their words and refuse to cooperate with Twentieth Century Fox.

After all, Hollywood has eight major film companies. In addition to the traditional eight major film companies, Hollywood has many other film companies. Although its foundation cannot be compared with the eight major film companies, its strength is indeed not weak at all.

The big directors and actors who were offended by themselves refused to cooperate with 20th Century Fox, and there were seven other film companies, and even Lionsgate Film and Films such as DreamWorks. They were not afraid that they would not have the opportunity to film or act, and they had a lot of choices.

At that time, once Twentieth Century Fox is really rich and wants to spend money to make movies without a big director or a big actor, it will be so embarrassing for Twentieth Century Fox. More importantly, the influence of this matter will lead to investors' distrust of 20th Century Fox, which will lead to the sharp drop in shares in the 20th Century. This is the real fatal place.

It will not only affect the 20th Century Fox, but also the 20th Century Fox's superior News Corp. For Jim Giannoporus, this is the most deadly thing.

Jim Giannopros wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Kim Yu-fan continued: "And my dear Jim, I wonder if you have been sitting in the position of CEO of Twentieth Century Fox for too long and have a lack of flexibility, or why you are too proud and arrogant. You can look down on a great director like Steven Spielberg, and you can pinch whatever you want. You are too exaggerating. I guess that apart from a fool, even a child will not believe it."

"Let's talk about director Steven Spielberg's status in Hollywood and global influence. As the three giants of DreamWorks, you can control Jim at will. Although DreamWorks cannot be compared with Twentieth Century Fox at present, it is also because of its lack of foundation and its short establishment time. In addition, behind Twentieth Century Fox is News Corp. In fact, compared to the current Twentieth Century Fox, in my opinion, Twentieth Century Fox is not as good as DreamWorks."

"The three giants of DreamWorks are there. The director has Steven Spielberg, the world's top-notch Steven Spielberg. The producer is the CEO of DreamWorks, the chairman of Walt Disney Studios at that time, and Jeffrey Carsonberg, who is recognized as one of the top producers in Hollywood, has David Geffen, the richest tycoon in the Hollywood entertainment industry. Why does Twentieth Century Fox fight DreamWorks? Even if you can compete with DreamWorks, at most it will be a draw. What qualifications do you have to look down on DreamWorks and Director Steven Spielberg."
