Rebirth of the Perfect Era Chapter 1131 Lost to the ......

At nine o'clock in the morning, Director Zhang, who was deliberately wearing a suit, came to the company early, and other senior executives of the company and representatives of the management came.

As soon as everyone sat down in the conference room, Zhang Weiping walked in with an excited face and said happily: "Li Mu really miscalculated now, he wanted to step on us, but he didn't expect to trample out our fame instead! I specially asked someone to inquire about friends abroad, and now the popularity of "Hero" in Western countries is already very high. ”

A marketing manager couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Zhang, are these overseas users resistant to our movies?"

Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "This is the most interesting part, according to my friends' understanding, the reaction of netizens in Western countries to this incident is not to attack "Hero", but to discuss Li Mu and Muye Technology, as well as the Muying ticketing system, a small number of people will scold a few words on the Internet, and the targets are also film and television companies including us, so in this way, our movies just escaped the gun!"

In fact, the content posted by YY is mainly aimed at the strangulation of new things in the film and television industry, although the producer of "Hero" has also participated a lot in it, but compared with dozens of film and television companies, the target is too small, so it is not so easy to pull hatred.

Director Zhang also felt very lucky, I thought that this time I was kicked on the stone, but I didn't expect that there would be such a big windfall, according to the current spread of "Hero", if you take the opportunity to distribute it overseas, and with superb operation methods, it will definitely bring a high box office to the movie!

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became warm, and everyone was full of interest to discuss the future overseas development, and everyone was full of expectations.

Seeing that an hour had passed, Zhang Weiping realized that the people from the United States had not yet appeared.

The other party also confirmed with himself once before getting on the plane yesterday, after getting off the plane in the early morning, he went to the hotel first, and arrived at the company at half past nine, which has been half an hour, but he didn't expect him to come.

Zhang Weiping immediately took out his mobile phone and called the other party, the transfer time of international calls was quite long, and after waiting for a long time, the prompt tone of the call finally came.

After a few sounds, a tired voice came and said in English, "Hello, who are you?"

Zhang Weiping hurriedly asked him: "Is it Mr. Paul? I'm Zhang, didn't you say that you would arrive at the company at half past nine? We are all waiting, I don't know when you will arrive?"

"Oh ......" the person known as Paul is resting on the bed in the hotel at the moment, the long-distance flight is not comfortable, he has no chance to rest at all, he takes a shower in the hotel, changes his clothes and is about to leave for Zhang Weiping's company, but suddenly received a text message from Harvey to give up the movie, Paul immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as for the task of contacting Makino Technology, there is no way to quantify the assessment anyway, so he simply slept in the hotel first.

Paul, who was worried about his pajamas, rubbed his eyes, and said the truth lazily: "I'm sorry, Zhang, our boss temporarily notified me to give up the copyright of "Heroes". ”

"What are you talking about?!" Zhang Weiping still thought that he was hallucinating, at this time, how could Harvey give up buying the copyright of "Hero"? He is a person who understands the film and television market so well, and now that the popularity of "Hero" has been pushed up by Li Mu, he shouldn't give up!

Paul thought that Zhang Weiping really didn't hear clearly, and said patiently: "Zhang, our boss has given up buying the copyright of "Hero", so there is no need for us to meet. ”

"You ......" Zhang Weiping understood this time, came back to his senses and asked: "What do you mean? Do you want to play the game of temporary price reduction? Let me tell you, you can't succeed! You don't want the copyright of "Hero", some people will!"

Paul snorted and said lightly: "You think too much, we really don't want it, since you said that some people will want it, then you should sell it to others, goodbye!"

After saying this, Paul hung up the phone, and Zhang Weiping heard the busy tone on the phone, and his face turned blue with anger.

Director Zhang asked him, "What's the matter?"

Zhang Weiping nodded: "His representative said that they have given up buying our copyright......

"Damn!" The representative of the management immediately took the case: "This Harvey wants to do it again, doesn't he? He really wants to be led by his nose when we are? He doesn't open his eyes to see, today is not the same as in the past, he is playing with us and wants to get away with it, and we won't give him a chance! Anyway, there must be a lot of film and television companies willing to buy the copyright of our movie!"

Director Zhang frowned, he knew in his heart the importance of Harvey, if this film wants to win international awards, it is only possible to hand it over to Harvey to operate, if it is distributed by other companies, I am afraid that it will not be able to operate international awards at all, and the box office is not guaranteed.

So Director Zhang persuaded: "Don't worry, Mr. Liu, let's calm down and discuss it." ”

The representative of the management asked rhetorically: "What is there to discuss? Directly contact all the Hollywood film and television companies, and say that we want to sell the market rights of this film in various countries, and our film now has such a great influence, there must be countless companies vying for it!"

Director Zhang hurriedly said: "Let's have a good chat with Harvey, after all, his strength is obvious to all, if we can cooperate with him, it will definitely be the best for us." ”

"What a fart!" the representative of the management sneered: "The game that Harvey played is a low-price buyout, you sell the copyright to him at a low price, what does it have to do with us if he uses it to make more money?"

As he spoke, the representative of the management looked at Director Zhang and asked: "Director Zhang, I know what you are thinking, don't you just want Harvey to take this movie away and make a high box office, do you have a good face? If he is happy and then lobby you for an Oscar nomination or even an Oscar, then you will not have to worry about anything in the future, but have you thought about it, how much money we have invested in this movie? The domestic box office has already lost like this, if the overseas rights are sold at a low price, how can we recover the cost?"

The management is currently extremely disappointed with the movie "Hero", after so many days of release, the real box office in China has just reached more than 20 million, and it has lost a lot of money at the box office, and the income is even less pitiful, and even a fraction of the cost cannot be recovered.

Director Zhang was poked in the heart by the representative of the capital, and he didn't know how to respond for a while, he really wanted to sell more to Harvey, the box office of the movie hit the street and the loss was the investor, to be honest, he didn't care very much, and he was not very affected, the most important thing is whether the film can be nominated for international awards after it comes out, each nomination is his own reputation, and it is related to his future worth.

Zhang Weiping saw that the atmosphere between the two was a little awkward, so he had to stand up and ease up: "Mr. Liu, Lao Zhang, don't get excited, don't forget that the initiative is now in our hands." ”

Saying that, he suggested: "I don't think it's as good as this, let's communicate with the film and television distribution companies in overseas countries first, reveal our intention to sell the overseas copyright of "Hero", and let them give an offer, whether to sell it or not is still up to us, the key is that this can give Harvey a certain amount of pressure, and it is not good that Harvey can finally give us a satisfactory price due to pressure." ”

The representative of the management side was silent for a moment, nodded slightly, and it seemed that this solution could only be used for the time being.

In order to put more pressure on Harvey, the producers of "Hero" immediately began to communicate with major Hollywood film and television companies, distribution companies, and industry bigwigs, hoping that they could buy the copyright of "Hero", but what they never dreamed of was that no matter how they promoted and praised the quality and current influence of the movie "Hero", Hollywood people who contacted them all rejected them without hesitation.

By the night of Yanjing time, the producer of "Hero" had already contacted the film and television companies and industry insiders that could be found throughout Hollywood, and what made them fall into a desperate situation more and more was that all the companies made it clear that they did not want the copyright of "Hero", and even did not wait for them to offer a price, but immediately refused when they heard the title of "Hero", as if the whole world was hiding from the plague and avoiding this movie.

The whole team completely lost the excitement and optimism they had before, and their minds were full of one question: why are they reluctant to ask for the copyright of "Heroes"? It is so famous now, and the market potential is huge!

Representatives of the management side, as well as Zhang Weiping and Director Zhang were inquiring and consulting in many ways, and finally got the news from a Hollywood company after several inquiries, and the other party said: Now the whole Hollywood is amazed by Li Mu's Muying ticketing system, and a large number of Hollywood film and television companies and the bosses of cinema companies set off for Huaxia, in order to get the right to use this system in North America from Li Mu's hands , everyone knows that Li Mu has a grudge against it, so these bigwigs in the film and television industry are unwilling to offend Li Mu because of a "Hero".

Li Mu has a great influence in Hollywood, not only because of his ticketing system for the whole of Hollywood, but also because he has a strong influence in North America and even the entire West.

What's more, his YY has completely occupied the entire Western Internet users, and the influence is unimaginable, if you offend him, it will really not be a good life.

Therefore, for these reasons, overseas film and television distribution companies and individuals do not dare to take the hot potato of "Hero", otherwise if Li Mu finds an opportunity to retaliate in the future, no one will be able to withstand his strong pressure, especially in the film and television industry, which still relies on users to eat.

At this time, Zhang Weiping and the entire "Hero" team realized in despair that if they annoyed Li Mu, they might really be wiped out, and the domestic box office of "Hero" has already failed and can no longer lose, if no one takes over overseas because of Li Mu's influence, wouldn't it be a complete loss of overseas markets and overseas film awards?

The management didn't cry without tears, hundreds of millions of dollars in cash were thrown in, and the actual box office profits of millions were returned, if there is no distributor in the world, the movie will have to rot in the ground, then the will not have to pay to death!
