Chapter 1232 A letter from Di Lingjie!

"Bescy, why did Leidianhua Film Company choose to attack Fox at this time? As far as I know, Fox Film Company's current strength is not weak. Although it is not profitable, its foundation is still very strong and has not reached the point of falling down with just a push. "```" I looked at Bescyleff and waited for his answer.

Besself smiled bitterly and said, "Andre, you may not know some situations. On the one hand, all the original theater chains of Fox Film Company were sold and under the control of Leidianhua Film Company. For a film company, losing the theater chain means losing its own lifeline. On the other hand, the most important thing is that it is not known why. During this period, Leidianhua Film Company suddenly changed its previous style of conduct. Two months ago, they were still very cautious. Carrey Rockefeller was cautious every step he took, but in the past one or two months, the Rockefeller consortium suddenly became rich and began to inject capital into Leidianhua Film Company. With strong capital, Carrey Rockefeller was naturally angry when doing things. Not only did he lose a lot of concerns, but he also became unprecedentedly domineering."

"Carry Rockefeller found Fox directly and negotiated with him, and said that if Fox did not agree to the merger, the theaters under the Thunderbolt Group system would not provide services to Fox Films, which is fatal to Fox."

"Fox is a man with a strong personality and never allows others to have any inappropriate thoughts about his film company, so he became popular on the spot, broke up with Carey Rockefeller, and then found me. We had a good relationship and had more than 20 years of friendship. Fox complained to me, claiming to have followed the wrong team. On the one hand, he was quite repulsive of DreamWorks for the Red Dragon League, and on the other hand, he is now discouraged by the Leidianhua Group. In this case, he was in a dilemma, in order to survive and for the better exhibition of Fox Films, he decided to take a path like the New Line Film Company, a real path. Then he ran over and found me."

Besselev said this and stopped talking.

Let's talk about it further, I guess he is embarrassed.

"Bacey, do you think the road proposed by Fox is just about to reach your heart?" Coolidge immediately laughed.

This laughter made Besseloff look ugly. Coolidge's meaning was very clear, that is, Besseloff's attitude towards DreamWorks is like Fox's attitude towards Thunderbolt Hua, for fear of being swallowed by our DreamWorks. Therefore, when Fox made such a suggestion, Besseloff naturally wanted to agree.

If two people have feelings for each other, the concubine has a intention, they will naturally be able to hook up together.

"Andre, I'll tell you the truth today. The board of directors of the 20th Century Film Company basically means this. I am also afraid of your DreamWorks. You can win a Grand Slam this year. What else can you not do? So, Andre, I hope you don't blame me, in fact, not only me. Other film companies have more or less thoughts." Besselev told the truth.

His words made me nod.

Everyone in the room stared at me, whether it was Coolidge or Grant. They all knew that it was time for me to express my opinion.

"Bessi, I called you here today, not to make you apologize or to so-called punishment. The merger of the film company is your own business. I have no right to ask about it. I just left you a sentence, do you like to listen to this sentence?" I turned off the cigarette butt and gritted my teeth.

Besie Loft, who was sitting opposite, immediately straightened his body. He knew how important the following words would be.

"I will not make any comments or take any measures to merge with Fox in the future, but you will remember that if 20th Century Fox Film Company and Thunderbolt Hua Film Company are hooked up in the future, or if you are enemies of the Red Dragon League and DreamWorks, we will not be merciful, because if that is the case, you will be our enemies, and we will not be kind to the enemy."

My words made Besselov nod and nodded continuously like a chicken pecking at rice. The conversation between me and Besselov didn't last long, only half an hour later, but when Besselov left, the guy's suit was wet.

"Andre, you said Bessi and Fox are really not going to attack you Red Dragon League?" Grant asked in a low voice as he looked at Bessilov's back.

"I can't say this, but I believe they won't do such a stupid thing. You know, since the 20th Century Film Company is on the road of exhibition, it's like the New Line Film Company, and cannot offend both DreamWorks and Lei Dianhua or be too close. Only in this way can the company have room for survival in Hollywood." I am still very confident in Besselev, and he knows the priorities of the matter.

"Do you want to know what I'm thinking now?" Coolidge squinted his eyes, like an old wolf: "I wonder now if Besseloff will tell the people from other film companies what's going on today after he walks out of here."

"Tell the people from his film company? This is not good. What if other film companies know and they do such a thing?" Glater shook his head repeatedly.

"I don't think so. If Bescy really told all the things he talked about tonight to the other people, it would be a shock, at least it would be better than each of them now." I objected to Grant's opinion. Coolidge nodded and said, "I hope so too. Don't worry, the situation of other film companies is different from that of the 20th Century Film Company, and they cannot merge. Do you think Paramount is possible with MGM or Warner Bros. Film Company? It's impossible."

"In this way, you can kill the chicken to scare the monkey." I let out a long sigh.

The news that the two major film companies of 20th Century Film Company and Fox Film Company merged into 20th Century Fox Film Company was quickly reported by major media, and the news instantly shocked the entire United States.

Although the 20th Century Film Company and Fox Film Company are not catching a cold when they come up with the story, the effect is completely different when the two film companies appear in the newspaper together.

On the one hand, it is naturally because of the respective identity issues of the 20th Century Film Company and Fox Film Company. One of them belongs to the Red Dragon Alliance and the other belongs to the MGM Consortium, which can actually be merged. There are so many imaginative places in the middle.

On the other hand, it is also the focus of people's discussion, after the merger of Fox Film and 20th Century Film Company, the newly established 20th Century Fox Film Company, completely changed the structure of Hollywood film companies.

Previously, Hollywood Film Company existed as a super film company in DreamWorks. MGM, Paramount, Warner Bros., Universal, Columbia, 20th Century Film Company, Fox Film Company, and other film companies. Now the establishment of 20th Century Fox Film Company has made this film company a major company ranked after MGM and Paramount, surpassing Warner Bros. Film Company.

This is definitely a strong alliance. The establishment of the 2nd Century Fox Film Company also caused some uncertainties in Hollywood's film struggle. In addition to the newly established film company that took the road ahead, Hollywood has produced a third-party force that can influence the situation at any time. The emergence of this force is unpredictable.

It is certain that in the near future, this force may become a key part of the DreamWorks situation, and both sides will win over. If that is the case, the leadership of 20th Century Fox Films will be very helpful.

Major media have also commented on this news, and the comments from many newspapers are very novel, which makes people shine.

The Los Angeles Times is a huge comic, on which is a red dragon and a crocodile fight to the death, while the two harpoons standing are waiting and looking forward to something.

The title of this comic is called "The Waiting of Third Party".

"Hollywood is a world of two forces, which is well known. The battle between DreamWorks and Thunderbolt Hua Film Company has become a main line of the Hollywood exhibition in recent years. But now, with the establishment of the 20th Century Fox Film Company and the previous new film company, the strength of Hollywood third-party forces has reached a certain level. Although the strength of the film company that follows the road of freedom is incomparable to the Red Dragon League and Thunderbolt Hua Group, when they are fighting, at least this free force still has a great say."

"This is a sign. If DreamWorks achieved a Grand Slam at the Harvey Awards ceremony in 1932, it marked that DreamWorks' glory reached an unprecedented peak, then the establishment of 20th Century Fox Film Company marked the beginning of a transformation in Hollywood, and the original two-part world has become the Three Kingdoms. This change in the situation will inevitably have a drastic impact on the entire Hollywood, and I think we will see this impact soon."

"For me, I have a neutral view on the establishment of the 2nd Century Film Company. I don't think that the establishment of this film company marks the collapse of the Red Dragon League, nor do I think that the establishment of this film company means the decline of the Lei Dianhua Group. I think this is a gratifying thing, because it at least proves that there is still film freedom in Hollywood. Freedom is the most precious thing."

"I have a hope that 20th Century Fox Film Company can join the New Line Film Company in the future as a powerful force to participate in the construction of Hollywood, find a balance point in the struggle between the Red Dragon League and the Thunderbolt Hua Group, and then report the glory of Hollywood."

Adam Bernstein's evaluation of 20th Century Fox Film Company is quite pertinent.

But some other newspapers are not so calm.

The newspapers of The Post and The Hollywood Times cursed Fox, believing that this guy was a scum of the Thunder Dianhua Group. At this critical moment, he left the group when Thunder Dianhua needed to beat him up, which was a completely traitor. The Post even directly called Fox a traitor.

On the other hand, newspapers such as the Los Angeles Tribune and Citizens scolded Bessieff, calling him a traitor to the Red Dragon League and a traitor to Hollywood. They believe that Bessieff did this to betray Hollywood filmmakers and open the door to Hollywood.

The Los Angeles Tribune even believes that the 20th century film company's separation from the Red Dragon League is a manifestation of an unprecedented crisis.

"With this precedent, the Red Dragon League will never be stable anymore, this solid wall guarding Hollywood. Now a deadly rift has appeared. If the enemy attacks, this rift will become a nightmare for this castle."

"I think this is a precedent and the only example. I hope there will be no successor. Because Hollywood really can't stand this kind of tossing."

In addition to the completely different views of these two factions, some media have also made relatively fair comments on the establishment of 20th Century Fox Film Company.

February 2nd was Sunday. In the Hollywood City Government, Besseylov and Fox signed a contract on behalf of their respective companies. After the merger contract was signed, the two walked to Grant and re-registered a film company.

20th Century Fox Film Company was officially established on this day,

It's definitely a day worth a few years.

Subsequently, at the headquarters of the 20th Century Film Company, the two parties held a large-scale celebration party to celebrate the establishment of the new company. Most of the well-known Hollywood filmmakers received invitations, but not many people went to participate.

However, not long after the banquet began, the appearance of a group of people still made the scene boil.

I led the senior executives of DreamWorks, as well as senior executives of film companies such as MGM, Paramount, and Warner Bros. to appear at the celebration site. Our group of people came with flowers and extended their sincere congratulations to Besseloff and Fox.

This action caused an uproar. The media had been looking forward to seeing the punishment measures of the Red Dragon League. Now the top leaders of the Red Dragon League actually appeared in this posture, far beyond these people's imagination.

Besselv was so moved that he almost cried when he was already feeling guilty. This made him feel even more embarrassed. As for Fox, although our relationship was not very good before, the situation has changed. Since he has left the Thunder Dianhua Group, we are no longer enemies. Therefore, Fox was also very happy in the face of our congratulations.

At the banquet, the atmosphere between the guests was very good and peaceful.

However, the reaction of Leidianhua Group is fundamentally different from that of us.

That night, Carey Rockefeller was interviewed by NBC. In the interview, Carey Rockefeller scolded Fox, called him a traitor, and condemned Fox Films' betrayal.

"We will not forgive Fox Films for this behavior. No one can tolerate this behavior. The Leidianhua Consortium and our partners will be closer together in the future. I think when we succeed, those who betray us will definitely be punished for their lifetime regrets!"

Carey Rockefeller's words were full of threats.

His words also made Besseloff and Fox very dissatisfied. They immediately started a fight with Carey Rockefeller, and both sides were very lively.

And at this time, I don't care much about them.

Because I have to deal with another thing.

Just shortly after the 20th Century Fox Film Company was established, I received a letter.

This letter did not have any signature except for my name, but when I opened it, the name inside made me open my eyes.

This letter was actually written by John Dillinger. The content is not much, but the content inside is very interesting.

"Mr. Corleon, when I wrote this letter to you, I sat in a forest, opposite me, a blue lake. Just before the three disappeared, we robbed the largest bank in Indianapolis, which I robbed a few years ago, and now we have patronized it again. After all, this is the 22nd bank we robbed. It is a great achievement."

"Now, the whole of America is about to be overwhelmed by us. The announcement of chasing me was posted from the West Coast to New York City. My friends and I never thought that we would become such a person, become a public enemy of the United States, and become a hero in the minds of the American people. Perhaps, our pursuit has always been right, that is, the current American society is a chaotic, dark and unfair society, which requires the emergence of us, the emergence of people, to restore confidence and wake up the people."

"Mr. Corleon, I have been having a dream during this period, dreaming that I was surrounded by police and beaten like a hornet's nest. Before doing this business, I thought of my own ending. I will never have a good ending. Maybe I won't see Christmas this year."

"But I am very proud to have such a life. I am very grateful for letting me go out of prison and allowing me to do such things. In addition, I think some things are not enough by my personal strength. Mr. Corleon, you know how disappointed the American people are now with our government and with this society. My personal actions are of little significance. I hope you can help me and those people who are in this world what is the public and what is justice."

"I think if you can make my story into a movie, it will definitely have a good effect. Of course, this is just my idea. If you think my idea is feasible, I think I will send you my event in the future. I know that it is right to do it myself. I know that people will remember the name John Dillinger in many years."

After reading this letter, I burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Gans asked.
