Chapter 472: Warner Bros. Visits

"Chen, I didn't expect your plan to be so big!" exclaimed Kevin Feige.

Kevin Feige also thought of launching the Avengers' team brand before, but it was obviously not as complete and detailed as Chen Hao.

Now, Kevin Feige has a good impression of Chen Hao, because the two are obviously like-minded people, and they also agree more with Chen Hao's acquisition of Marvel.

"However, the investment and risk of launching so many superhero movies are not small. Avi Arad said.

"Yes, the start is undoubtedly the hardest, and it is also the key to the smooth implementation of the whole plan, after all, the single Marvel superhero is not very popular in Hollywood right now.

Therefore, before the first "Avengers" came out, we launched as few single superheroes as possible, as long as the three core heroes of Iron Man, Captain America and Thor.

As for Black Widow and Hawkeye, they will not launch a series of personal hero movies for the time being.

And the movie of the three core heroes, we must at least lose a little less, and then wait for the advent of "The Avengers", if "The Avengers" can be successful, then the next three stages will undoubtedly be much smoother.

After all, with the previous success, the rest of the sequels are basically a sure win, and once the concept of the Avengers is deeply rooted, then we can continue to add new heroes.

"Black Panther" can appeal to the African community, "Captain Marvel" and "Black Widow" can appeal to the female group, as well as "Eternals", which represents European power, and "Shang-Chi", which is Asian.

Speaking of which, "Shangchi" must launch a new version of the comic, and the entire story style and direction must be readapted. Chen Hao said.

Kevin Feige and Stan Lee nodded when they heard this, if "The Avengers" can really successfully complete the first phase, then Marvel will undoubtedly regain its strength.

And for Chen Hao's small request that brought about all these changes, he naturally had to do everything possible to meet them.

"But if you want to implement the Avengers plan, it is impossible to do it under the current conditions of Marvel, because you have basically zero experience in film production and distribution.

And my Measuring Ruler Pictures already has a lot of experience, and at the same time, the copyrights of several superheroes of the first generation of the Avengers, except for the Hulk, are all in my hands.

I now own the rights to Iron Man, Thor, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Team America, Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain Marvel, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Humanoids, and Namor.

At the same time, after acquiring Marvel, I will invest about $140 million in the first part of "Iron Man" as the beginning of the plan, and I will serve as the director myself.

As for the distribution, Measuring Ruler has been working closely with Sony Colombia, and there are no problems with the global distribution. Chen Hao said.

After the three heard that Chen Hao was willing to invest $140 million, and served as the director himself, and Sony Columbia was in charge of distribution, the last scruples in their hearts were gone.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

"Wonderful, ambitious, but also very much in line with the actual situation of Marvel, to be honest, your plan has stunned me, who has been at the helm of Marvel for many years. Avi Arad exclaimed.

"That's true, you can see that you're really thinking about Marvel. Stan Lee said.

"I really hope that this plan can be implemented now. Kevin Feige said.

"So, what did I do well?" Chen Hao said with a smile.

Without exception, the three nodded deeply.

Chen Hao looked at Hu Jin when he heard this, and the next thing was Hu Jin's major.

"Now that we've reached a cooperation, why don't we start preparing this plan now?" Chen Hao asked.

"Absolutely. Kevin Feige immediately nodded, he had long wanted to implement the plan in his heart to change the status quo of Marvel's half-dead.

"After the acquisition, the first thing Marvel has to do is re-plan a Marvel Cinematic Universe to include as many heroes as possible and make sure they can interact with each other.

Secondly, we will continue to recover the superhero copyrights that have been sold before, so as not to be tied up and delay the film plan due to copyright issues.

Third, the copyrights of Hulk and Spider-Man may not be so easy to recycle, but with the existence of Hulk in the Avengers plan, we need to communicate with Universal and allow us to use Hulk. Chen Hao said.

"No problem, we'll get started as soon as possible. Kevin Feige nodded.

Later, Chen Hao and Kevin Feige discussed the Avengers plan again, and Hu Jin continued to negotiate with Stan Lee and Avi Arad on the terms of the acquisition.

By the time Chen Hao and Kevin Feige finished discussing it temporarily, Hu Jin's side was not over yet, and when it came to vital interests, the two sides would definitely not give in to each other, and it was estimated that it would take some time.

However, at noon, Chen Hao received an unexpected but reasonable phone call from Warner Bros. Greg Silverman.

"Chen, you're finally in the U.S. again. Greg Silverman laughed.

"Long time no see, Greg!" Chen Hao smiled.

"Chen, is The Da Vinci Code about to start?" asked Greg Silverman.

"Yes, filming will start in a few days. Chen Hao nodded.

"Colombia is so lucky that we don't know when we'll be able to work together again. Greg sighed.

"There will be a chance. Chen Hao said.

"Actually, we can't work together on movies now, but we can work together in other ways, Chen!" Greg said suddenly.

Chen Hao had already known it, but he still pretended not to know, "Oh?"

"I'm talking about the mainland cinema in China. "Because of your policy adjustments, Warner Bros. is ready to withdraw from the mainland theater market." ”

"Do you want to withdraw all now?" Chen Hao was happy when he heard this, he didn't take advantage of Colombia before, but he didn't expect Warner Bros. to send it to the door by himself.

"It's only partial, because some of the less than 49 percent are not in violation, and there are contracts. Greg explained, "Now I'm going to talk about the 5 studios of Jinling Shadow Warner!"

"You mean you want me to take over?" Chen Hao asked.

Warner Bros., as the first Hollywood company to enter the mainland cinema market, has cooperated with Yonghua in the magic capital and Wanda, which has officially entered the cinema market.

But among them, the 5 cinemas of Jinling Magic Shadow Warner are controlled by Warner, and they are all multiplex theaters, which are similar to Huaying Haoge Cinemas, and the investment in each is not low, at least more than 15 million yuan.

"Yes, are you interested in the five studios of Jinling Demon Shadow Warner?" asked Greg.
