Entertainment: My predecessor is a diva and my current boss is a boss

"Snapped"! !

A newspaper was slapped heavily on the table next to the hospital bed. Hopkinson, who was wearing a hospital gown, had a sallow face, and there were dancing flames burning in his eyes.

The newspaper is the Calais Fugia Entertainment News, and the headline on the front page is "The Return of the King of Peak Entertainment Li Chang'an, Hopkinson's Dead End"

Nicholas Fox carefully put away the newspaper.

Hopkinson ignored his small gesture.

"Uncle, don't be angry, these unscrupulous tabloids always like to exaggerate, this is not bad, some of them are directly shocking!"

Hopkinson's complexion was because he was so anxious a few days ago that he vomited a mouthful of blood and hurt his vitality.

"Nicholas, I'm not angry, but I'm thinking about how to protect the company!"

Nicholas' pupils shrank a little, she didn't expect the matter to have developed to such a serious point.

"Uncle, although the investment in Dongying failed, our [-]th Century Fox is still one of the eight major Hollywood film companies, with assets exceeding tens of billions."

Hopkinson shook his head:

"Nicholas, you are too young."

The old man tapped the content of the newspaper lightly with his skinny fingers:
"This Li Changan made a high-profile announcement at the airport that Summit Entertainment will release the last three volumes of [Twilight] and five volumes of [Harry Potter]. This is a challenge for us."

Nicholas's face was filled with anger: "Uncle, the people of the Great Dragon Kingdom are too deceitful."

"Deceitful?" Hopkinson smiled:
"If it were me, I might have done more than him!"

"Hmph, it's a big deal. The Fox family has no cowards."

"Confused!" Hopkinson reprimanded this stupid human nephew with a straight face:

"The painstaking efforts of several generations of the Fox family cannot be ruined in my hands!"

Nicholas' heart sank: "Uncle, what do you mean..."

Hopkinson heaved a long sigh: "There is no other way but to compromise with Summit Entertainment, I hope Li Changan can accept it!"

"I don't agree!" Nicholas jumped up, dancing and shouting:
"It's absolutely impossible for me to compromise with the yellow-skinned monkey."

Hopkinson's face was completely gloomy:
"I'm not asking for your opinion, leave my ward now, immediately, immediately!!"

"Let's go!" Nicholas also became stubborn, and left with a flick of his sleeves:

"Anyway, I firmly do not agree to compromise with the yellow-skinned monkey."

Hopkinson looked at his back with a look of contempt in his eyes.

"The fish dies and the net breaks? It's a good idea. I'm afraid that if our fish dies, other people's nets may not be broken. Now we can only hope that Li Changan will take care of the overall situation and understand that the two tigers are fighting, and it will only benefit others. Otherwise, If not, Centennial Fox will be in danger."

...............

Li Chang'an's rhetoric at the airport was to use the media's mouth to slap Fox.

Only by destroying it can Summit Entertainment gain a firm foothold in Hollywood.

Even if it can't be killed in one hit, it must be crushed.

Gu Jiujiu has already returned from Europe.

This negotiation went very smoothly.

[Harry Potter] The first part is extremely popular in the whole continent of Europa.The four major publishers made a lot of money from this book.

In only half a year, the first part of [Harry Potter] set a sales record of 160 billion euros throughout Europe.

When they heard that Gu Jiujiu had five Harry Potter volumes, the four major publishers almost smirked.

It was useless for Gu Jiujiu to speak, they took the initiative to express that the contract could follow the standard of [Harry Potter and the Academy of Magic].

Then things were simple, after signing the contract, Gu Jiujiu gave them the USB flash drive containing the novel files, and everyone was happy.

"Brother Chang'an, Hopkinson, the president of [-]th Century Fox, wants to see you!" Gu Jiujiu was acting as Li Chang'an's assistant these days, but was disgusted by the latter in various ways.

"Tch, if you can use a billionaire as an assistant, you can go and have fun." These are Gu Jiujiu's original words.

"Hopkinson?" Li Changan tilted his head and thought for a while:

"Why is this old fox here? Let him come over!"

Hopkinson came quickly.

People are still in the corridor, hearty laughter has already passed:
"Mister Lee, hello!"

Li Changan held his breath and sat still without moving.

Since they are rivals, there is no need to put on a smiling face to see them.

Hopkinson's face was gray, and the effect of vomiting blood had not completely dissipated.

He didn't dare to continue to recuperate in the hospital. Once Summit Entertainment started to attack, there was no way to stop it.

The result of the deadlock between the two companies can only be that the other eight film companies are cheaper.

Hopkinson must seek Li Changan's forgiveness before Summit Entertainment makes a move.

He also believed that as long as he subdued, the other party would not necessarily kill them all.

After all, Twentieth Century Fox has a deep foundation. In a fight, even if Summit Entertainment can win, it will have to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred.

"Mr. Hopkinson, I heard that you have been in poor health recently. On behalf of the entire staff of Summit Entertainment, I would like to extend my sincere regards to you!"

Hopkinson's expression remained unchanged.

He took the initiative to go to Summit Entertainment to convince him, and he was fully prepared.

As for face, in his opinion, that thing is the least valuable.

Hopkinson only has interests in his eyes.

For this, it doesn't matter if you lose face or even hurt your self-esteem.

That thing can't be eaten.

"Mister Lee, I am here this time to apologize to you and Summit Entertainment for my previous unfriendliness."

Ok?
Li Changan was very surprised.

Is the old fox admitting cowardice?

"Mister Lee, I was deceived by a small group of people with ulterior motives in the company before, and said a lot of bad things to you and Summit Entertainment. I hope you will forgive me once."

Hopkinson is worthy of being an old fox. Once he lowered his body and subdued, his posture was very low.

What he meant was that he was deceived by people like Nicholas and Qiu Changhai, and what he did was not his original intention.

I believe you ghost, you old man is wicked and ruthless.

If it wasn’t for Fox’s failure in Japan, the investment of 50 billion was in vain, and I announced at the airport that Summit Entertainment would publish [Harry Potter] and the last three volumes of [Twilight]. It's no wonder you, an old fellow, would come to your door to plead guilty.

However, Li Chang'an admired Hopkinson's thick skin and ability to throw blame, which is what a qualified CEO should possess.

"Mister Lee, I think we should be friends instead of enemies. When Summit Entertainment fights Fox, it can only be cheaper than Columbia and MGM..."

Li Changan sat on a chair, just quietly watching Hopkinson's tongue-in-cheek performance.
