Zhang Pu set a small goal for "Looking for the Dragon"!

One billion at the box office!

This topic is still extremely hot, and it has also been talked about by countless netizens.

Dare to say so, I am afraid that Zhang Pu is the only one in the entire film industry.

However, as Zhang Pu's words about "The Mummy" continue to be interpreted, the corresponding topics are becoming more and more popular.

"Sean Sommers can't take advantage of Zhang Pu's script. ”

"Orange Entertainment cuts off Hu Zhang Pu and Sean Sommos cooperation!"

......

The topic is getting hotter and hotter, and it is obviously not the tap water of netizens, but someone is pushing behind it.

"The topic is stirred, if "The Mummy" is not plagiarized, it will be a bit more than worth the loss. Jiang Xingwen shook his head and said.

Oriental DreamWorks is clearly pushing behind it.

Not the main force, of course.

Orange Entertainment is the main force, and they will naturally take the opportunity to promote it.

"What if you copy it?" Zhang Pu said with a smile.

If it is copied, and the topic is so hot, then it will naturally be easier to suspend the release of "The Mummy" above.

Public opinion is a sharp blade.

Although "The Mummy" is a joint venture film, the dominant party is the Hollywood company after all.

The restrictions may be much less than those imported from Hollywood, but they are much more than Chinese-only films.

"Orange Entertainment's face must be very exciting at that time. Jiang Xingwen said.

Orange Entertainment contributed money and efforts to stir up the topic, but found that he had dug a pit and buried himself.

Even if Zhang Pu sued Sean Sommers and let "The Mummy" fall into a plagiarism storm, it may not be impossible to struggle.

But now that the topic is so hot, it is estimated that no matter how much you struggle, it is useless.

"Why do you think Zhang Pu mentioned his collaboration with Sean Sommos at the press conference?" asked Huang Cheng with a frown.

I don't know why, he always has a bad forenotice.

"I guess it's because he is angry with us! His man has never had a big heart. Song Zhen said.

He is the vice president of Orange Entertainment.

Huang Cheng is the chairman and general manager. Although Song Zhen is only a vice president, he is also a high-level member of Orange Entertainment.

Is Zhang Pu's heart big?

Apparently not big.

At least that's what people at Orange Entertainment think.

"He said he wrote a script about Egyptian mummies?" Huang continued, "Did you say Sean Sommers used his script?"

"If it is used, will it be the turn of Orange Entertainment to cooperate with it?" Song Zhen said.

Huang Cheng shook his head, the "use" in his mouth obviously meant something else.

"You mean that Sean Sommos copied Zhang Pu's script?" Song Zhen frowned when he saw Huang Cheng's expression, and said, "It's not impossible. But I don't think Shaun Sommers is stupid, is he? Of course, it is estimated that Zhang Pu's fans may boycott it!"

Zhang Pu's fans boycotted?

Huang Cheng is naturally not afraid of this, which of his orange entertainment films has not been boycotted by Zhang Pu's fans?

What's more, under the bickering between the two sides, it can also increase the attention of the film.

It is not for nothing that films have fallen into plagiarism and infringement.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the circle.

This time, at most, Zhang Pu and Sean Sommers are more well-known.

The higher the visibility, the greater the impact.

This inevitably worries Huang Cheng.

It's just that he didn't expect that Zhang Pu would keep a hand at the beginning.

On December 17, "The Mummy" was released in North America.

Then, Oriental DreamWorks sued Sean Sommers with a complaint, and listed a lot of evidence.

Among them, many of the plots and settings of the film are extremely similar to Zhang Pu's script.

Even the story setting is the same.

Of course, this is not the place to be.

What is really staggering is that when Zhang Pu and Sean Sommers talked about the idea of this "Mummy", Zhang Pu recorded the audio.

After listening to the recording, and watching Sean Sommers's "The Mummy", he is afraid that it is difficult for people to deny that his film is not influenced by Zhang Pu.

He used Zhang Pu's creativity, and even some of the plots are similar.

Is it plagiarized?

It's really hard to believe that there is no plagiarism.

Moreover, Sean Sommers went to Oriental DreamWorks, but the cooperation between the two sides was not negotiated.

But the cooperation was not negotiated, but Sean Sommers used other people's ideas, and the plot is quite similar to other people's scripts.

Did he go to Oriental DreamWorks and read Zhang Pu's script?

I'm afraid only the person concerned knows.

Oriental DreamWorks' paper complaint has set off a great storm in the global film industry.

Zhang Pu is not well-known internationally, but he has won two Oscars, one of which is the best screenwriter.

His screenplay was copied by Sean Sommers, or at least it doesn't seem so incredible.

Moreover, the evidence given by others is also very sufficient, which makes it difficult to question it.

Sean Sommers was instantly passive.

However, the film has already been released in North America, so it is naturally impossible to draw it immediately.

Whether it's Zhang Pu or Oriental DreamWorks, they don't have that influence.

They didn't expect this to be sued, and it wouldn't be released over there.

The investor, producer, producer and distributor of "The Mummy" is one of the major Hollywood film and television companies.

Of course, as soon as Oriental DreamWorks sued "The Mummy", which fell into a plagiarism storm, it must have had a great impact on the film.

Not to mention anything else, will the company behind the film released at the same time not seize this handle and attack it vigorously?

The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and the drum broke and 10,000 people beat it!

Regardless of whether Zhang Pu wins or loses the case, Sean Sommers' future is worrying.

Zhang Pu's lawsuit is not aimed at the company behind "The Mummy", but Sean Sommos.

He sued not the producer for infringement, but Sean Sommers for plagiarism.

For people, not for companies.

Zhang Pu's main purpose is just to make "The Mummy" impossible to be released in China.

By the way, kill the chickens and make an example of the monkeys, so that Sean Sommers can get the punishment he deserves.

And that purpose is clearly achieved.

As soon as Oriental DreamWorks sued, the domestic instant fryer.

Hollywood director Sean Sommers plagiarized Zhang Pu's script?

If foreign fans still have doubts about this matter, then domestic fans must believe it.

Then, the boycott of the film was endless.

Public opinion was turbulent, coupled with the connections of Oriental DreamWorks, "The Mummy" was immediately suspended.

"The Mummy" can't be released in China?

Who does this have the most impact?

Orange Entertainment is one of the investors of this film, and it is said that they only account for a small part of the film's overseas revenue, while domestic revenue accounts for the lion's share.

Now, the film is mired in a plagiarism scandal and cannot be released, and the loss is too great to estimate.

They invested a lot in this film, and if it can't be released, it will almost be a waste.

The problem is that that's not the point, the point is that it's going to have a big impact on their company's stock market.

In addition, the publicity and distribution costs of the film's domestic release are also paid by Orange Entertainment.

Of course, compared with the former, the publicity fee is a small amount of money.

"Dad, have we been cheated by that Sean Sommos?" Huang Ze looked at Huang Cheng and asked, "That guy has always insisted on letting us take domestic income on top of income distribution. ”

"That guy isn't much better now. Huang Cheng shook his head and said.

Regardless of whether Sean Sommers can win the lawsuit or not, his reputation is already stinky, especially when "The Mummy" was suspended in China, not to mention that he was sentenced to death, but it may be difficult for him to attract any investment in the future.

He is now equivalent to being banned by the Huaxia Film Market.

Investors on the Hollywood side, who are willing to give up the Chinese film market? Naturally, they will consider this when investing in Sean Sommers films.

Sean Sommers is not irreplaceable.

The director who can't attract investment is cool in the morning and evening.

"Dad, do you think the recording released by that guy Zhang Pu is real?" asked Huang Ze.

Being glanced at by Huang Cheng, Huang Ze smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes! If it wasn't true, he wouldn't dare to announce it." Who would have thought that when he met Sean Sommers in Egypt to discuss the film, he would even record it. ”

"It's not the first time. Huang Cheng shook his head and said.

He had to admit that Zhang Pu's habit was really ......

How could Sean Sommers have thought that Zhang Pu would guard against him from the beginning.

He was undoubtedly planted in Zhang Pu's hands.

Or that Orange Entertainment is also planted in Zhang Pu's hands this time.

If he didn't admit it, under the public relations of public opinion, he would give Zhang Pu a touch of porcelain, and he could take the opportunity to hype it up.

It's a pity that a recording directly knocked him into the abyss.

Without that recording, even if "The Mummy" is caught in a plagiarism scandal, with Orange Entertainment's connections, the film may not be released in China?

The effect of that recording is difficult to estimate.

"Will 'The Mummy' still be released?" Huang Ze said.

What if it's released?

The publicity and distribution fee is a waste, and there is such a big "scandal", after the release of this film, the box office may also be worried.

"Sean Sommers can't plagiarize, I'm afraid this film won't be released. Huang Cheng sighed and said.

Is it still possible for "The Mummy" to be released in China?

There is no doubt that there is.

"The company's losses are so big, can't it just be just settled?" Huang Ze frowned and said, "Otherwise, we will sue Sean Sommers as well." ”

"Not yet. Huang Cheng shook his head and said.

Whether to sue or not, and when to sue, this needs to be measured.

At this time, suing Sean Sommers may not be the best choice for Orange Entertainment.

"Cheap Zhang Pu that guy. Without "The Mummy" diverting the box office, his "Looking for the Dragon" is afraid that it will really explode. Huang Ze said, "If he breaks the 2 billion box office mark, who else can control him in the future?"

When it comes to Zhang Pu, Huang Ze inevitably hates itchy, but he has to admit that Zhang Pu is not only lucky, but also amazing.

"Is it cheap?" said Huang Cheng, "what if his script is filmed?"

Which script?

Naturally, it was the script that was copied by Sean Sommos.

The script is obviously aimed at the global film market, and no one knows what the box office will be.

It can be seen from the fact that Sean Sommers has not escaped the shadow of his script.

Perhaps, what Zhang Pu lost was a film that became popular all over the world.

Where did he earn it?

Maybe the loss is worse than Orange Entertainment!

When Huang Ze heard this, his mood was much better.

Will Zhang Pu's script still be made into a movie?
