That was exactly his point. In USA (I dunno where you are from), sometimes the union is company-specific, as in: the union forms inside the company and has only that company workers and has some say on the company management. In Holywood that didn't work, because movies often have a one-off company created just for them (it still works this way). So the actors and whatnot created non-company unions, so this way they get what you just said (ie: company dissolves, but employees are still in a union, since the union wasn't tied to a company).
