Chapter 766: Fraudulent Advertising

The picture disappeared on the big screen, the ceiling was sprinkled with lights again, and countless applause rang out in the screening room, and the applause was extremely warm and enduring.

Along with the applause, there were many comments from the audience.

Many of the fans who came to the premiere in groups couldn't help but start discussing the film that had just finished screening.

"It's so handsome, American muscular man, and he drives a high-horsepower muscle car, which is a perfect match. ”

Lin Feng heard someone on the left talking.

"Matthew Horner's movies are really good. ”

On Bai Xue's side, I also heard a lot of people applauding and talking.

"I originally came here because Matthew Horner can speak fluent Chinese, it turns out that his movies are also great, go back and look for them on the Internet, and watch all the films he has made in the past. ”

"Just because Matthew Horner knows Chinese, I like him as a person!"

Even a middle-aged fan on the right who looks old and serious is nodding and saying, "It's good, it's exciting enough!"

These also reached Nini's ears, and it seems that such a simple and brainless movie is very popular?

She sat in the middle of many ordinary audiences and had the most intuitive feelings.

The fans at the scene are very fond of Matthew Horner, such a Hollywood star who can speak Chinese, I am afraid that it will bring a super craze here.

In this way, people or things related to Matthew Horner are bound to become the focus of attention of domestic entertainment media for a long time.

Nini had already made up her mind, and this moment was even more resolute, and the road from export to domestic sales may really be a shortcut.

The premiere came to an end, but the crew's activities weren't over yet, and Disney Greater China had a reception dinner at a nearby hotel.

"It's working out great. ”

Walking into the hotel, David Ellison said to Matthew, "The fans are very enthusiastic, even a little crazy. ”

Matthew shrugged, "In fact, this kind of film, as long as it is popular and exciting, audiences on both sides of the Pacific will like it." ”

The North American film market is very mature, but don't look at the aesthetic vision of North American movie audiences, in some respects, the aesthetic level of mainstream audiences on both sides of the Pacific Ocean is actually about the same, otherwise there will not be many bad movies in North America, and even films that can sell two billion box office by relying on feelings.

David Ellison asked, "Do you think there can be a $100 million box office here?"

Matthew thought carefully for a while as he walked, and then slowly shook his head, "It's difficult, after all, the market here has just started and is still in the development stage." ”

David Ellison was a little disappointed, and said, "Even if there is 100 million US dollars, we can't get much money, and 13% of the box office is too much!"

"It doesn't matter. Matthew is relatively open-minded, "We are for the future." ”

He reminded in a low voice, "I heard that the two sides will soon have another round of WTO negotiations, in which the film is one of the contents, and the MPAA is currently doing work in Washington, and it is estimated that the box office share will rise significantly in the future." ”

David Ellison nodded, "I hope so." ”

got on the elevator, Matthew didn't say much, the box office share ratio here is low, but it does not include taxes and publicity expenses, which are all responsible for China Film, and the 13% share can be said to be basically profit.

When the elevator reached the fifth floor, Matthew and David Ellison walked to the door of the banquet hall, and suddenly found that Gal Gadot was stopped by someone, who stuffed her with a small blue box, and before Gal Gadot could react, there was a cameraman next to him who was taking pictures of Gal Gadot.

"I'll see what's going on. Instead of going into the ballroom with David Ellison, Matthew walked over to Gal Gadot and asked, "Got in trouble?"

Gal Gadot showed Matthew the blue box in his hand, looked at a middle-aged man with glasses on the other side and said, "This gentleman said that he was a fan of mine, and he liked my role in the film very much, and wanted to give me a gift, and by the way, take a photo with me." ”

When the middle-aged man with glasses saw Matthew, the joy on his face flashed, and he magically took out a small blue box from his pocket, took the initiative to reach over his right hand, and said in not very fluent English, "Hello, Mr. Horner, I'm also a fan of yours." ”

Matthew glanced at him and said, "Hello, we can communicate in Chinese." ”

The middle-aged man wearing glasses immediately changed back to Chinese, and sent a small box to Matthew with both hands, saying, "This is a little specialty of my hometown, and I want to give it to Mr. Horner as a gift." ”

Matthew was not Gal Gadot, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the videographer who had just taken the picture, and did not take the little blue box at all, but said, "This gentleman, I appreciate your kindness, forget the gift." ”

This was a bit unexpected by the middle-aged man with glasses, but he didn't give up, but insisted, "This gift represents the hearts of fans, it is not valuable, please accept it." ”

Matthew looked at the blue-blue box again, the name of the Silver Throat on it was so striking that when he looked at it, he could remember the two Brazilian stars who had smirked and held up a similar box.

After all, the advertisement is really weird, especially the one with Luo Da's ears, which is said to have been abducted and tricked by the pit meng.

"No need. Matthew not only didn't answer, but said solemnly, "You brought this cameraman, right?"

He didn't care whether the other party admitted it or not, and said directly, "It's best not to take pictures here, please turn off the camera." ”

The middle-aged man with glasses saw that Matthew didn't answer at all, so he had to take back the small blue box in a daze.

"Gadot. Matthew stretched out his hand to Gal Gadot, who immediately put the box in his hand, Matthew handed it to the middle-aged man with glasses, and said very seriously, "Sir, please don't use the photo you just took for any commercial use, it involves the image rights of Miss Gal Gadot and the crew of "Fast and Furious". ”

After speaking, he politely nodded to the middle-aged man with glasses, "Goodbye." ”

Matthew greeted Gal Gadot, and the two entered the banquet hall together.

At the door of the banquet hall, the cameraman approached and asked, "Boss, what are we going to do?"

The middle-aged man with glasses looked inside the banquet hall and the black suit guarding the door, he couldn't get in because there was no invitation.

"Do you still use the photos?" asked the videographer again.

"This ...... Let me think again. The middle-aged man with glasses hesitated, "Did you say they would keep an eye on it?"

The videographer said honestly, "It's hard to say, Disney has a branch here. Our ads are meant to be broadcast on TV, and it's hard not to be noticed. ”

A middle-aged man with glasses can't make a decision, how to choose between the advertising effect that can be triggered and the legal problems that may be faced?

"Both!"

At this moment, a hotel security guard came over and directly warned, "Photography is not allowed here, please leave." ”

Seeing two security guards with big shoulders and round waists, the middle-aged man wearing glasses hurriedly beckoned the cameraman to leave.

Following Matthew into the banquet hall, Gal Gadot glanced back and asked curiously, "What's going on?"

Matthew didn't hide it, and said directly, "Maybe you got in to cheat the advertisement." ”

As soon as these words came out, Gal Gadot immediately understood, "They want to take a picture of me holding that box and use it as an advertisement?"

"I guess. Matthew said lightly, "Maybe not." ”

He didn't talk to Gal Gadot about this topic, after all, he was also a beneficiary of piracy, and most of the movies he watched were high-definition pirated downloads from the Internet.

Most people, including himself, are not actually aware of copyright, let alone copyright protection.

In the past, Luo Da Ear was actually pitted more times, and holding up a similar blue box was just a less conspicuous one.

Matthew still vaguely remembers that he had read Luo Da'er's gossip report, it was said that once Luo Da'er wanted to buy a house, let the agent and lawyer handle it, and the house was bought, Luo Da'er moved in and lived for more than half a year, only to find that the real estate certificate was written in the agent's name, and the co-author's agent just treated him as a tenant.

Later, Luo Da'er wanted to hehehehe, so he hooked up with a little girl to the hotel, and as soon as he took off his pants, he found that the other party also had a handful underneath, not only disgusted by the shemale, but also forced to hush money......

Look at Gal Gadot, and think about the time when Luo Da grinned and bared his teeth with a "box with the old man's portrait" and smirked at the people of the country on thousands of TVs and billboards for several years, Matthew felt that this could not happen to the crew of "Fast and Furious".

This will definitely affect the entire crew.

So, after chatting with Gal Gadot for a few words, he deliberately found Sean Tang and roughly explained what had just happened to his own speculation, so that Sean Don could pay attention to this matter.

Sean Tang had received special attention from the Disney headquarters and was particularly concerned about Matthew's affairs, and immediately said that he would ask people to find the contact information of that company and send them a lawyer's letter first.

In this day and age, legal issues involving foreign companies have never been a trivial problem.

With Sean Tang staring, Matthew was also relieved, and then threw the matter aside, Gal Gadot seemed to be very concerned, and specially came over to ask.

"It's fine. Matthew said simply, "Disney's branch will keep an eye on it, and as long as the other party is not stupid, it will not infringe on our copyright casually." ”

Gal Gadot nodded, "That's good." She smiled again and said, "Thank you for reminding me." ”

Matthew waved his hand, "A little thing, you're welcome." ”

The two had not spoken for a few words, and Sean Tang suddenly walked back, taking two middle-aged men with him.

Matthew glanced at it, the person in front had a big split head and a rather unfamiliar face, but the person in the back was very familiar, even those who hadn't seen his movies probably heard his name.
