Entertainment 2000: Supporting female stars will bring you a hundredfold return

Chapter 329 Such impartial law enforcers are a blessing to America!

In terms of editing techniques.

Tang Wen was also a master.

The editing work was already largely completed.

After working day and night for the past two or three days, Tang Wen has finally finished editing the video.

However, they didn't announce it publicly. They only invited Iger and Roy Disney, Disney's second-in-command, over in the afternoon.

As key figures in this collaboration, Pirates of the Caribbean directly impacted their future status and influence within Disney.

It also concerns Tang Wen's directing career.

The three were firmly tied to a boat.

At the Galaxy Entertainment screening room, a team of bodyguards was stationed backstage to guard the master tapes of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

Playback begins, and the lights dim.

Captain Jack Sparrow makes his appearance...

A full 140 minutes passed.

The lights come back on.

Roy Disney and Iger exchanged a glance and simultaneously let out a long sigh of relief.

The former stood up first and hugged Tang Wen: "Tang! You're a genius! The youngest director in Hollywood!"

Aiger looked at Tang Wen with a big smile: "Buddy! You didn't let us down!"

Although neither of them are directors or producers, their appreciation skills are quite good.

Judging whether a movie is good or bad is not a difficult task for someone who has been in the industry for many years.

As director Wang Jing later said: "Some movies, you don't even need to watch half of them, just a third of them, and you'll know they're beyond repair."

We'll definitely have to pounce.

“But we can’t relax yet.” Roy Disney, the Disney family heir who shares the same name as the founder of Disney, became serious again:
"This film is of great importance."

Tang Wen and Ai Ge exchanged a glance and said, "My new song, 'Because of You,' has been released for a while and has now climbed into the top 20 of the Billboard Hot 100."

I will release a new album in a few days.

Meanwhile, after the movie's trailer is released, I will contact some international online promotional agencies to launch discussions globally and generate anticipation among movie fans..."

The two listened quietly, nodding repeatedly.

Finally, Tang Wen didn't forget to slip in his own agenda: "We can contact the cinema's ticketing pre-sale company to pre-sell movie tickets a week in advance."

“Hmm, we can give it a try. Disney will handle the contact.” Roy Disney’s tone softened. “Don, collaborating with you is the best decision I’ve made in the last two years!”

The three then finalized the film's release date: June 27th, during the summer season.

It was a Friday, exactly one week after the release of "The Incredible Hulk".

Tang Wen continued, "I'll contact them about the release in China and Hong Kong, but it might be a little later than in North America."

The film was released simultaneously worldwide, but it didn't become popular until after 2008.

The reason for releasing the film first in North America is mainly to prevent piracy.

After saying goodbye to Roy Disney and Iger, they welcomed Olivia Brown and Sarah Getty, two powerful figures in California.

They came from prominent families and had experienced countless social occasions.

Sitting with her boyfriend's other girlfriend, she didn't feel awkward at all.

The three chatted as they ate, and Tang Wen casually mentioned his new movie.

The two women said they could book the entire venue.

Tang Wen shrugged and agreed.

They're both quite well-off; renting out a few movies won't cost them much.

He then mentioned Roy Disney, who had just come to see a movie.

"He is already very old. When he gets old, the Disney family may lose Disney completely."

Roy Disney was supposed to step down from the power center of Disney this year, but instead he colluded outside the company to launch a "Save Disney Plan," going against the current president and chairman, Michael.

In the end, they ousted Michael from the position.

Tang Wen's appearance has accelerated this process for him.

The success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was originally attributed to Michael.

It will take Roy Disney and Iger two more years to completely drive each other away.

Now, "Caribbean" has become Tang Wen's work and their achievement.

In addition, we helped Disney switch to a Chinese supply chain that offers high-quality products at low prices.

In the eyes of many shareholders, they made significant contributions to Disney.

Roy Disney was also the last member of the family to take charge of Disney.

After his death, the family shares were further diluted, and eventually passed to his granddaughter, leaving her with less than 5%.

Unsurprisingly, both women felt strongly about this topic.

Olivia said, "I can't imagine what it would be like if the Brown family no longer belonged to California."

That's a bit like Versailles.

Sarah Getty felt this even more deeply: "Our Getty family used to be in the oil business, but then the successor was a classical composer who knew nothing about oil companies. He had many conflicts with the board of directors and eventually sold the company. It was a complete transformation."

Just hearing this sentence, it seems a bit melancholic.

But Tang Wen pressed on, "How much did you sell it for?"

"Uh, 101 billion US dollars."

Tang Wen suddenly didn't want to speak. It was the early 80s, and the amount was 101 billion US dollars.

We didn't even make this much money selling Dongfeng trucks...

After finishing the steak, we drank some wine.

As they chatted, they ended up in Tang Wen's lounge.

The lounge area isn't very large, but a large 2.2x2.5 meter bed stands out.

They hugged each other and, without realizing it, collapsed onto the ground.

His marksmanship was as swift as the wind.

The battle raged on.

In the middle of the night, Jia Jingwen quietly arrived.

Before I even entered the office, I could already hear the noise.

Despite being prepared, she couldn't help but mutter to herself: Western women just have such loud voices.

Tang Wen's phone rang a few times; it was the security team, reminding him that Jia Jingwen had come up.

He patted Sarah, whose eyes were glazed over, and said, "Go open the door, your new sister is here."

Sarah got up; finally, someone was sharing the burden.

She had never experienced anything like this before.

Unbeknownst to many, the limits of the Tang family's spear technique are actually limitless.

We started drinking, showering, and having sex around 8 PM, and it's been going on until now, but I just can't take it anymore...

noon.

They gradually woke up.

Only then did Jia Jingwen have time to get to know Olivia and Sarah.

She couldn't help but say, "I never imagined that my first meeting with a foreign friend would be in this way."

The two women smiled as they listened to her stumble through her English speech.

The noise from the three of them waking up and washing up alerted Lin Chih-ling, who was working outside.

Sister Lin thoughtfully asked her assistant to buy food and coffee.

Let them fill their stomachs in the office.

"Jia, you and Lin are very similar."

"Really? How is it similar?"

“You all have such poise and composure,” Sarah complimented.

Jia Jingwen was about to start the mutual praise mode.

Unexpectedly, Olivia quietly added, "Yeah, you'd never guess from her appearance that she'd be so crazy at night."

Lin Chih-ling, who was working, burst out laughing.

The three women turned to look at her together.

“She must be mocking us,” Jia Jingwen stirred up trouble.

Lin Chih-ling quickly shook her head: "No, I just happened to think of something funny."

She was indeed mocking us.

"Next time we're together, we'll teach Lin a lesson."

"agree"

"Reconsideration"

Sister Lin gave a pitiful look.

Unfortunately, none of them were interested in her because they were all beautiful women.

As the saying goes, those who have fought side by side are the four pillars of life.

The same applies to Tang Wen's women. Imagine everyone fighting side by side, only to end up exhausted.

As the woman cried and begged for mercy, someone struggled and dragged his battered body to help her.

How could such a friendship not be precious?
How come we're not best friends anymore?

"How come Tang isn't tired?" Sarah thought, finding it unbelievable.

Olivia sighed.

Jia Jingwen said bitterly, "He's a bull that has become a demon."

She then explained her statement.

He gained the deep approval of both women.

The three women had just finished eating when Tang Wen, who had been on a long phone call with people in China, walked in from outside.

Lin Chih-ling tattled: "They said you're a bull spirit."

This was said in English.

The three women turned to her and glared at her angrily: "Traitor!"

"Alright, it seems the lesson you learned last night wasn't enough. You're all coming back to the villa with me tonight," Tang Wen sneered.

The three women shook their heads simultaneously.

A lot of laughter.

Olivia pulled Sarah and Tang Wen inside to talk about serious matters.

After fighting side by side last night.

The two women are now inseparable comrades-in-arms.

They saw each other's true strengths and weaknesses.

It's fair to say we know everything about it.

With Tang Wen serving as a bridge for communication, their alliance is even stronger than that of ordinary allies with vested interests.

Sarah stated that if Olivia's team encounters any difficult criminals, she can send someone to check the accounts and provide support immediately with just one phone call.

Olivia took her hand:
“Great, Sarah! You have no idea how envious I am of you IRS. Unlike us FBI, who have to go through a ton of paperwork to arrest someone, and before handcuffing them, we have to spout that 'you have the right to remain silent' nonsense…”

After chatting for a while, the two women discussed the details of law enforcement.

They have all worked on the front lines, and they speak with great expertise, making them difficult to guard against.

"The IRS generally doesn't interfere with crimes other than tax evasion. Even if they see evidence, whether they notify the state police and the FBI depends on their mood. Many wealthy people and crime bosses know this. If we cooperate in the future, I can arrange for someone to subtly suggest they sign an agreement..."

Olivia seemed slightly excited:

"That's a good idea! I'll also notify you if I encounter anyone suspected of tax evasion..."

Tang Wen's eyebrows twitched as he listened: Good, good, good!

I feel reassured that America has such impartial law enforcement officers like you!

Sarah remembered that Tang Wen wanted to acquire "Marvel" and brought it up on her own initiative.

Olivia, as expected of an elite FBI supervisor, listened carefully, pondered for a while, and then analyzed:
“Cross-state law enforcement is difficult, but it’s a good way to conceal our purpose. After all, our relationship with Tang is not a secret to those who truly have power.”

“Olivia (Olivia’s nickname), you truly deserve to be the head of the FBI!” Sarah praised sincerely.

Olivia smiled slightly: "Marvel shareholder Joan Lee is so extravagant. If we investigate carefully, there will be problems with the accounts. And that stingy Ike, he definitely tries to cut corners when it comes to taxes."

“You’re right, there’s a high probability they’ll evade taxes, but unfortunately I’m with the IRS in New York and don’t have any trustworthy acquaintances…”

"cough!"

The two women were talking more and more outrageous, when Tang Wen, with his upright character, interrupted them.

Attracting the attention of the two women, he said:

"A little suggestion: when you talk about these things, be more upright and dignified."

For example, Sarah, you should say, 'They're evading taxes, and every penny they lose is in the national interest of America! This is blatant crime! This must be stopped!'

"Ah~"

"makes sense"

The two women suddenly realized, their gazes falling on Tang Wen's face, full of admiration, as if to say, "As expected of you."

Tang Wen closed his eyes in despair.

I'm a good person!

Thank God, I never intended for them to get involved in this matter.

But since things have come to this point...

We have no choice but to get involved.

"An investigation must be launched in a reasonable and justifiable manner."

It is better not to take action unless there is reasonable suspicion and evidence.

During the investigation, the other party's accounts should be frozen in accordance with the law.

During the investigation, you must maintain a good attitude; the account freeze period can be long…

The two women's eyes were filled with even more admiration, as if they had learned something.

Olivia was a little puzzled: "Don, do you come from a political family?"

In America, only high-level players act in a fair and square manner, following the rules.

Because in terms of effectiveness, it's not as quick as "framing someone."

But there are absolutely no worries about the future.

Only large families with abundant resources and a constant stream of talented individuals would engage in such practices.

Some politicians and members of parliament who lack a solid foundation simply can't pull this off.

Because there are too many unruly people in the US.

You follow the rules, but your opponent doesn't. You methodically find evidence of their illegal actions, but they directly frame you.

You'll suffer a great loss if you fight.

Everyone seizes every opportunity, and even if there isn't one, they create one to take advantage of it!

Therefore, there is always an endless supply of dirt to be dug up on American politicians who rise to power through normal means.

Some large families, on the other hand, have powerful backers, resources, and adhere to rules, enabling them to operate sustainably in the long term.

Tang Wen shook his head: This level of wisdom is nothing in the eyes of the Chinese.

After some discussion.

Olivia used her connections in the New York State courts to investigate the two men and those around them.

Once we've identified the suspicious points, we'll ask the IRS in New York to take action.

The favor owed will be credited to Sarah.

However, the entire process will be conducted legally and legitimately.

For someone at the level of a state-level official, owing a significant favor is not a big deal.

After the conversation, Tang Wen was very pleased.

I am about to make a huge contribution to protecting the tax interests of the United States and even all mankind!
This deserves to be celebrated.

However, when Tang Wen suggested that he would reward them that night...

The two women crossed their legs and waved their hands in unison, indicating that important business was the priority and their careers were paramount.

Acquiring Marvel is of utmost urgency.

They needed to go back and make arrangements overnight.

As for a reward, it could be given to "Lin!"

She didn't get to enjoy it last night.

As best friends, they were willing to give her their share!

Of course, this is only for one or two nights.

The two women kissed Tang Wen and then left one after the other.

Tang Wen didn't reward Sister Lin directly; he left the company and went to Warner Music.

His second English album is already finished.

His first song, "Because of You," did well and played a significant role in his promotional tour for "Hero."

Now, it's time to release the second song.

The vice president of Warner Music personally received him.

There was no question about Tang Wen's request.

However, the two sides had different opinions on the choice of the second song.

Tang Wen wants to release "Cry on My Shoulder".

The original singer of this song is from a talent show in Germany.

The creation time is in the second half of this year, and it will be released at the end of this year.

The song Warner Music wanted to release was a hit song called "Be What You Wanna Be".

It's that incredibly catchy song:
“doctor, actor, lawyer or a singer
Doctor, actor, lawyer, or singer
why not president, be a dreamer
Why not president? Be a person with dreams.

The song title may not leave a deep impression, but once you hear the melody, many people, including listeners in China, will immediately remember it.

Warner Music's reason for wanting to release this song is quite simple.

It has the style of a catchy tune, making it easy to go viral and generate more buzz, which can spark discussion and curiosity about Tang Wen's new album...
