Barry Winkler said angrily when being interviewed by reporters.
And those who interviewed Barry Winkler actually knew why he was in such an atmosphere, because just as Phantom Media, which was facing the biggest crisis since its creation, officially announced the dismissal of Barry Winkler, the former general manager of the ABC Television Network
All positions held by Koehler.
In other words, Barry Winkler, who was supposed to be at the top of the American television industry pyramid before, suddenly had nothing!
"I have discussed it with the company's senior executives. Everyone is very unfavorable about people like Wu Jianye being the boss of Phantom Media, so many senior executives are no longer willing to work under such a person!"
Barry Winkler continues to spread big news to the outside world.
This news indeed surprised countless people, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that everything was expected. Before Phantom Media acquired the ABC Television Network, Barry Winkler was the general manager of the ABC Television Network.
The company has high prestige and has a group of loyal followers. Now that Phantom Media has announced the withdrawal of Barry Winkler from all positions, it will inevitably cause turmoil within the ABC Television Network!
Regarding this situation, the other two rivals of ABC TV Network, NBC and CBS, will naturally not show mercy. In fact, at this time, not only colleagues from the two major TV networks but also other media groups in North America,
They are all using their own media to start reporting on this matter.
If you just watch the news, everyone may think that Wu Jianye's dismissal of Barry Winkler is a prelude to the disintegration of Phantom Media.
Unfortunately, news like this has a very large market in North America and Europe.
In fact, the chaos shown today is indeed true. After Phantom Media announced that Barry Winkler would be revoked from all positions, and Linda was temporarily appointed as the general manager of ABC Television Network, the first thing she did was to deal with most of the issues submitted by the senior management.
Resignation letter.
Faced with the collective resignation of nearly half of the senior executives, people are more certain of their previous guesses.
The Barry Winkler incident will be the prelude to the separation of Phantom Media.
At this time, no one regrets that Phantom Media, which has just become one of the largest media groups in the world, is about to fall apart. Everyone is waiting to celebrate, as if watching a Big Mac fall in front of them is the real pleasure!
Regarding this situation, Phantom Media still has not given any reply.
All the media are speculating that the reason why Phantom Media did not respond is because at this time, they are busy retaining the top executives of ABC Television Network who submitted their resignation letters.
But what made everyone guess wrong again was that Linda or Wu Jianye, who was behind the scenes, actually agreed to everyone's resignation application!
Is Wu Jianye crazy?
Everyone thinks so.
Can't you see the consequences of this now?
Whether Wu Jianye is crazy or not, no one knows the specific results, but they are willing to believe that Wu Jianye is crazy!
"It only takes less than a week for a dynasty to collapse!" - The New York Times commented appallingly!
No one expected that Wu Jianye would be so strong, and those who resigned also did not expect that they thought their power was strong enough. They believed that Wu Jianye could not possibly look after a large company with a market value of over 10 billion U.S. dollars.
Such a collapse!
Therefore, they believe that their resignation will not be accepted. The most important thing is that they can use this matter to put pressure on the group company, declare their value, and at the same time welcome back their hero Barry Winkler!
But all these imaginations were shattered the moment Linda agreed to sign.
Linda didn't even say a word to save her!
Is this the attitude of Phantom Media? They are determined to destroy the ABC TV network and they will not bow their heads!
At this time, those who submitted their resignation letters no longer have the intention to pay attention to Phantom Media's attitude. What they want to think about is how to find a new job!
This incident did not happen suddenly. In fact, before this, Barry Winkler had discussed countermeasures with many of his die-hard followers, but all countermeasures were carried out on the premise that Wu Jianye would be subdued.
It just so happens that Wu Jianye doesn't act according to common sense at all!
The moment Linda signed, these people changed from collaborators to antagonists!
There are more than a dozen executives at ABC Television Network who submitted their resignations this time, and they are almost all the most important figures in each department. After these people leave, there will be fewer job opportunities to choose from. After all, the largest TV station in North America is so
Several.
The most important thing is that they were all executives of ABC TV network before, which means that when they look for jobs again, it is impossible for them to look for ordinary positions, and their colleagues will also face new challenges, no matter where they go.
Companies will all face the circle that that company has already formed.
The road ahead for these people will be difficult!
Those who stayed were thanking them in their hearts at this time. The departure of these people meant one thing. There were suddenly more than a dozen vacant positions in the first company. Those who had always wanted to climb up,
But those who have no position, they wait for the opportunity.
As for whether Phantom Media will break up, some of them may be worried, while others may just ignore it. Even if Phantom Media is really required to break up, these companies are still
Existence, I just changed a boss!
Everyone has their own little calculation!
People who were once extremely grateful to Barry Winkler now hate Barry Winkler extremely, and those who hated Barry Winkler at the beginning have now become very grateful to him.
Things are unpredictable!
After those senior executives resigned, ABC Television Network immediately added six more senior executives, and the remaining candidates will choose their successors from the original middle- and senior-level leaders.
My colleague ABC TV Network has not announced any recruitment information. Even if the original executives are filled in new positions, their original positions are immediately filled with new people.
Among these newcomers, there are hundreds of them, some are Chinese, and there are no black people...
Barry Winkler did not shut up at this time, but continued to be interviewed by other TV stations and newspapers.
"I have feelings for ABC TV Network, but what makes me sad is that the person behind the group has no feelings for ABC. He actually dismissed so many people who once led this TV network to glory.
He is seeking his own destruction, but I also believe that our federal government will not allow consortiums to engage in monopoly business!"
What Barry Winkler said was very artistic. He separated the ABC TV network from Wu Jianye. At the same time, he also made it clear that the success of the ABC TV network was achieved through the efforts of himself and those senior executives. As for Wu Jianye,
I took out the credits for "Friends" and "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" at night and selectively forgot about them.
This is probably the inertial thinking of Americans. I only say what I think is right. Does it matter what outsiders think?
They are like a king who has put on "new clothes", but they are more arrogant than that king. Even if everyone says that he has no clothes, he still firmly believes that he has put on clothes.
"You really don't have to fight them back?"
Linda reunited with Wu Jianye again, and this time only Johnson, Matthew Murphy, and Lauren Donnell were left around them.
After Wu Jianye directly announced the dismissal of Barry Winkler at the group meeting two days ago, no one had any dissent anymore, or it can be said that they do not dare to challenge Wu Jianye's authority at this stage.
They don't know what Wu Jianye's trump card is, but they firmly believe that Wu Jianye is a lunatic, because throughout the history of global business, it is rare to see such obvious self-destruction of the Great Wall.
In their hearts, Wu Jianye at this time would rather destroy the group than allow anyone to dare to challenge his authority.
Wu Jianye shook his head and said, "It's not the right time yet. Has anyone submitted their resignation in the past two days?"
Linda shook her head, looked at Wu Jianye with a somewhat complicated expression, and said, "No!"
Others don't know where the new people come from, but Linda knows clearly that those people are talents from the talent pool of Yaoguang Group and Yiwang Group.
Now the talent pools of Yaoguang and Yiwang Groups have long been recruiting not just Chinese talents, but global talents.
Wu Jianye's behavior was actually to balance Linda's influence!
"What about other companies?" Wu Jianye continued to ask.
"Other companies don't have this situation. It seems that the previous group meeting shocked them!" Linda replied.
Now the general managers of other subsidiaries of Phantom Media are thinking more about how to ensure that their positions will reach the end of this matter smoothly.
Wu Jianye turned to Matthew Murphy and asked: "Have the independent production companies that protested against us investigated clearly?"
Matthew Murphy immediately said: "The investigation has been completed and I have made a list!"
At this time, Matthew Murphy's mood was also very complicated. Anyone who could reach this position was not given for nothing. Everyone also knew that at this time, it was not only Wu Jianye who was fighting against the inherent rules of the entire North America, but also the
Balance Linda's rights within the group.
Matthew Murphy became the general manager of Phantom Pictures because of Wu Jianye's promotion, but Wu Jianye is indeed not in North America often, and Matthew Murphy is actually responsible for Linda, which makes him
There was some vacillation between the two.
Colleague Lauren Donnell actually feels the same way.
As for Johnson?
His mood can be said to be the simplest among everyone. It's not that he hasn't thought of all this, but because he understands the things between Wu Jianye and Linda better than Matthew Murphy and Lauren Donnell.
Also know more inside information.
It is true that Wu Jianye began to balance Linda's rights within the group, but Linda did not have any plans to establish a separate company. In other words, there would be no irreconcilable conflicts between Wu Jianye and Linda.
After this incident passes, Linda will still be firmly in her position as president of Phantom Media, and Wu Jianye will still return to China.
In fact, the so-called standing wall between Wu Jianye and Linda is actually meaningless, at least in Johnson's view.
Moreover, after this incident came out, Johnson found his grandfather.
Explained clearly what happened between Wu Jianye and Linda.
To this day, Johnson still remembers what his grandfather told him: "If Linda hadn't been there, would Wu Jianye have found another spokesperson in North America and founded Phantom Media?"
"Without Wu Jianye, would Linda have been able to create such a powerful Phantom Media in just a dozen years?"
Johnson's two answers are: Yes, no!
"I think our top priority now is to find out who leaked this news!" Johnson said.
The whole thing actually reveals a bit of weirdness, that is, who revealed the news that Wu Jianye is the boss behind Phantom Media, or this evidence!
"Yes, although the answers given by the other party in a lot of evidence are somewhat incorrect, the other party definitely knows some of the ins and outs of the whole matter. Such people can only be people around us!" Linda also agreed with Johnson.
suggestion.
Just as Johnson thought, Linda understood what Wu Jianye meant, but Linda had no intention of taking Phantom Media as her own, so although she felt a little uncomfortable, she was very calm.
Wu Jianye nodded and said: "The mastermind behind this matter must be found out. For us now, we are in the open and the other party is in the dark. We cannot continue to be insecure when things have developed to this point.
Know who your opponent is!"
"But we can't investigate one thing one by one. Instead, we have to bring all the things together and investigate them together!"
The release date of the movie "Eternal Night" is getting closer and closer, and Wu Jianye hopes to resolve this matter in North America before it is released!
However, this kind of thing is still somewhat difficult. The greater possibility is that after "Eternal Night" is released, the matter here will not be resolved.
Linda agreed: "Okay, I'll have someone look into everything!"
"First of all, we need to know which newspaper published this news for the first time. Since the person hiding in the dark wants to make this matter bigger, he must have published it to the most influential newspaper!"
After Wu Jianye finished speaking, he asked Matthew Murphy: "Besides those independent production companies, is there any news recently from other major studios?"
Wu Jianye is now extremely certain that there must be a huge alliance of forces behind this matter, otherwise the whole matter would not be so fermented.
Matthew Murphy immediately said: "There really is one!"
"Which one?" Wu Jianye asked immediately.
"Globe!" said Matthew Murphy.
Wu Jianye looked at Linda, and Linda immediately replied: "I know what to do!"
Wu Jianye said: "Since these people want to make things bigger, let's just help them make things bigger. I want to see who can't handle it first!"
