Viacom Group.

It is the parent company of Paramount, one of the six major Hollywood directors, and is the third largest media group in the United States, second only to Time Warner Group and News Group. It has as many as 39 local TV stations and dozens of radio stations across the United States, and is very powerful.

Moreover, it also has mtv, an extremely valuable music TV station.

You should know that mtv music TV is the world's largest music TV station, no one can provide Viacom Group with more than US$7 billion in revenue every year.

However!

However, at this moment, Summer Redstone, chairman of Viacom Group, was very angry.

"Bastard~"

"This damn bastard~"

"First, my dearest son Brent, he actually sued me in court and accused me of saying that I used a campaign to force him out of the family industry, which made me very angry and made me lose face in front of the people of the world."

"But...what now?"

"I never expected that my beloved nephew Michael would dare to sue me too?"

"And also claim $4 billion from me?"

"What a joke? Why didn't he say I gave him the entire Paramount Pictures?!"

"Hmph~"

At this moment, the Paramount Emperor Lei Shidong, who was already 76 years old, turned into an extremely angry lion, and his majesty was still there for a long time.

He accused his son and nephew one after another!

They scolded them for being ungrateful and disregarding their father-son family ties.

Yesterday afternoon, the District Court in Los Angeles held a trial. Lei Shidong attended the trial as the defendant. When he met three people he least wanted to see, he was so hypertension came up.

Ex-wife: Phyllis;

Son: Brent;

Nephew: Michael;

...

"The three of them are my enemies and don't want to squeeze money from me all the time. They are vampires and disgusting borers. They should go to hell and be judged by Satan. They should be glad that it is not the medieval era, otherwise I will definitely slaughter them one by one!"

Lei Shidong gritted his teeth and cursed again.

For a moment, the entire huge office was silent, and none of the group executives present dared to speak.

"Dad, it hurts your body."

The only person who dared to speak stood up. She was Raystone's daughter, 40 years old.

Currently, she is also working for Viacom Group, serving as one of the senior executives and is one of the heirs of the old guy Redstone.

The angry Lei Shidong smiled a lot when he saw his daughter Sari talking.

Showing rare tenderness.

"Sari, you still feel sorry for me. I don't look like Phyllis, Brent, and Michael~" Redstone said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Shari immediately said, "Dad, don't worry, I am not mother Phyllis, nor my brother Brent, nor Michael. I will always support your decision."

Dongdongdongdongdong~

At this moment, Joanna, the secretary of Redstone, knocked on the office door and pushed it into it.

"The boss, Mr. Jordan of Paramount Pictures, and Mr. Juke Wald are here," said secretary Joanna.

"oh?"

In an instant, Lei Shidong, whose eyes were slightly cloudy just now, immediately a flash of light in his eyes.

"Joanna, bring Juke Wald and Jordan in. Well, as for everyone else to do their own things, Sari, please keep it." Lei Shidong ordered.

“Yes, boss.”

"Yes, dad."

Everyone responded, and after a few seconds, only Lei Shidong and his daughter Sari remained in the huge office.

"Dad, I heard you came to Juke Wald to make him the producer of the Tomb Raider project?" Shari asked.

"That's right!"

It would be fine if I didn't say it, when I talked about this, Lei Shidong, who had just stopped the fire, burst into anger in his heart.

“This bunch of waste…”

Up to now, Paramount Pictures' performance this year has made Lei Shidong, who has always been dissatisfied with the old age and is strong.

As of the end of September 1999, only one of the top ten films in North America's annual box office rankings was produced and released by Paramount Pictures.

Moreover, the film "The Running Bride" that ranks in the top ten is jointly produced and distributed by Disney Pictures and Paramount Pictures, and is not led by Paramount and completed independently.

Paramount Pictures, one of the top six, still wants the face of being the overlord?

Is it embarrassing to lose?

Compared with other companies that are among the top six Hollywood companies, their performance is far worse.

Let’s take a look at the other films produced by Paramount Pictures on the list. The best-scoring movie is "Double Crisis", but it only achieved a box office of $116 million in North America, which is completely unmatched by one of the top six.

What's more important is... this movie... lost money.

Well, at least, but by making a profit in the box office, you can’t recover the cost.

"As for other movies, it's okay if you don't say it, at most it's just a small profit. The performance is far inferior to the previous year. Of course, the performance last year was not very good." Lei Shidong said angrily.

Anyone can hear that he is extremely dissatisfied with Paramount Pictures' performance.

If there weren't a suitable talent to take over Paramount, with his violent temper, he would have cleaned up all Paramount's executives long ago.

Shari wondered: "Will Juke Wald be the producer of the Tomb Raider project, he will definitely be able to achieve a high box office and reshape the dignity of Paramount Six?"

She always felt that Zhuke was too young and a little unreliable.

Oh my God ~

A producer in his 20s, how powerful can he be?

"hehe!"

Lei Shidong smiled and said, "Don't think that guy Juke Wald is young, you can underestimate him. You are not responsible for the group's film and television entertainment projects, so you don't know him well enough."

"But!"

"Looking at his screenwriter and producer, whether it is the early "Running Rolla", the not-to-date "Spartan 300 Warriors", or even the animated film "Find Nemo", it is a rare fine product, and has achieved high-yield box office results."

He paused and said, "If he had no ability, how could he become the youngest billionaire?"

Of course, there is one sentence that Lei Shidong didn't say.

The "Tomb Raider" project was originally a game project. Paramount Pictures obtained the copyright for film and television adaptation, and Zucker once asked Paramount to buy it.

As a result, there was no suspense...it was rejected.

Zhuke, who smelled bloody smell, was naturally unwilling to give up simply. After some hard work, he absolutely invested in funds and joined the project "Tomb Raider".

"Although this guy, Zucker, is a bastard and shameless, he has a good vision. Maybe the project "Tomb Raider" is a big deal?"

Paramount Pictures executives have started speculation.

Thanks to the big hit of "Finding Nemo" not long ago, Paramount's boss Thunderstone Oriental proposed to let Zucker join the project "Tomb Raider" as the producer.

Well, Zhu Ke looked stupid during the entire purchase process.

But in fact, Zhu Ke also had ill-hearted intentions.

Dongdongdongdongdong~

The knock on the door sounded again.

"Hi, Zhuke, you guy is finally here!" Lei Shidong stood up to welcome him and gave Zhuke a big hug.

Zhu Ke naturally had a false opinion.

"This is my daughter Sari, my best heir." Lei Shidong introduced his daughter.

When Zhu Ke saw it, he was immediately happy.

The best heir?

Be funny ~

Lei Shidong recently competed for property lawsuits with his ex-wife, son and nephew. Zhu Ke paid a lot of attention and became a melon-eating crowd.

As for Lei Shidong's daughter, and his best heir, Sari, as a time traveler, Zhuke knew that in 2012, Lei Shidong and Sari, the father and daughter, had a fierce fight, which caused a lot of controversy, which was much more turbulent than the previous family turmoil.

Even the two broke up publicly, claiming that they would not interact with each other until they died!

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk ~ precious father-daughter family affection, but when you fight in the future," Zhu Ke smiled in his heart.
Chapter completed!
