Wang Jie stayed in the island nation of Edo for ten days until September 26, when he returned to Los Angeles with Nanako Matsushima and Norika Fujiwara.

On October 1, "Legend of the Night" began to be released in 1,000 theaters in North America, and the film was distributed by Wang Jie's Fox Pictures. Although "Tales of the Night" was released more than ten years ahead of schedule, the picture quality and special effects of the film are almost the same as the original, and it goes without saying that this is a sensation caused by this magnificent visual feast at the moment. In its first week of release in North America, the film grossed $9.5 million, a figure that once again shocked its Hollywood peers.

In Europe, "Legend of the Night" earned nearly $40 million at the box office within a month, and the Xiangjiang region also sold 24 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office in the first month.

Although the film has caused controversy among some religious groups, the overall reputation is still good.

Vampires are mostly portrayed as aristocratic leaders in Western magic, presumably because their ancestors are descended from European royal families, and the usual image of vampires is pale and elegant, and when they don't show their canine teeth and bite people's necks, they still follow the Sven route. Vampires are afraid of the sun, and their bodies will turn to ashes in the sun. Werewolves are another popular race in Western magic, although they also have an ancestor who was the king of England, but their image is not aristocratic because of this, but rather wild, and is embodied as tall, brutal, ferocious, and extremely aggressive. Werewolves are afraid of the moon, and they will transform on full moon nights. "Tales of the Night" presents a battle between these two races living in darkness. The Bloods live in luxurious and spacious castles, dressed in fragrant sideburns, shaking wine glasses, and in the style of high society. The wolf clan lives in dark and damp tunnels, and they also play strength jobs such as fighting and boxing, and they are all at the bottom of the class. At the beginning of the film, the heroine in a rainy night, a Gothic building, and a tight leather coat and cloak jumps from a height, which is cool and stylish. The film's choice of Kate Beckinsale as the heroine is too discerning, and her previous impression of her was still the British lady in "Emma", and she couldn't imagine being so cool - Chicago Tribune

Dressed in a black leather suit, with a pale face, and the hot scene of fighting with two guns in her hands, the glamorous Kate Beckinsale is also very cool. "Tales of the Night" is a gothic action movie, with its horror and thrilling killing beauty, and it is also a "Romeo and Juliet" story in a vampire and werewolf world, and the beautiful and poignant love is moving. Werewolves and vampires in Western culture are like demons and immortals in Chinese culture, two races that are always in a state of hostility, and this myth and legend that has been passed down for thousands of years itself has great room for imagination, coupled with Hollywood and its good "little love in the background", which increases the watchability of this movie. Throughout the film, the author was deeply attracted by the bloodthirsty gothic style of the film - "Ming Pao Weekly"

When "Legend of the Night" was still in theaters, Wang Jie met with Somer Lei Shidong at William's Manor in Los Angeles.

The two chatted for a few words, and the conversation quickly turned to the movie.

"Nowadays, film investment is getting bigger and bigger, and once there is an accident, the production company will inevitably break the bones, and cooperative investment will become a trend. The two chatted for a while, and the conversation quickly turned to the movie.

"Nowadays, film investment is getting bigger and bigger, and once there is an accident, the production company will inevitably break the bones, and cooperative investment will become a trend. There is obviously something else in Summer's words, "There are also theaters, and the number of theaters in which the movie is released will have a decisive impact on profits." ”

"That's right!" Wang Jie nodded in agreement, and his words also had a vague meaning, "Only benefit sharing can reduce investment risks." ”

Somer Lei Shidong also smiled, he fully realized that Wang Jie was not very old, but he was as smart and cunning as rumored, "William, Viacom can be your partner in the future, if you have a need in theaters, you can open your mouth." ”

Americans don't pay attention to subtlety, the exchange of interests is the exchange of interests, there is nothing difficult to say, Viacom is an out-and-out media giant, compared to Wang Jie's United States, Disney, Fox and Murdoch's News Corporation, it is obvious that Summer-Lei Shidong intends to intervene in the film industry.

"Definitely. Wang Jie thought for a moment and asked directly, "I heard that Mr. Summer-Lei Shidong is interested in acquiring Paramount?"

This sentence is to pretend to be confused, and well-informed people in the circle have long known that Viacom is constantly raising funds and preparing to forcibly buy Paramount Pictures, and it faces a strong competitor.

"I don't think it's a secret, is it?" said Summer's laugh, "I heard that William has 8.3 percent of Paramount's shares, and I want to ask if I can transfer it to me!"

Wang Jie thought for a moment and responded: "Of course you can, but I don't want cash, I want to exchange for shares of Viacom Group of the same value." ”

Summers Lei Shidong was silent for a long time and said, "Okay, I hope the cooperation will be happy in the future." ”

Lei Shidong was born in Boston, USA, in 1923 to a poor Jewish immigrant family. At the time, there was not even a bathroom in the apartment he was living in. Through his efforts, he attended Harvard Law School, where he received his J.D. degree. After graduating, he worked as a lawyer and legal secretary to the Federal Court of Appeals, and as a special assistant to the U.S. Attorney General. But what really made him famous was his outstanding achievements in the entertainment and communication industries. Lei Shidong transformed a struggling TV company into the world's media and entertainment giant: Viacom. Viacom is one of the world's largest media and entertainment companies, owning Paramount Pictures, CBS, DVD and computer game makers and MTV Music Television Network, with a turnover of $22.6 billion in 2013 and branches in more than 170 countries and regions around the world.

Lei Shidong is the one who created this miracle.

Lei Shidong's most famous media concept is "content is king". In Lei Shidong's plan, he wants to build a world-class content-driven media. After establishing a television empire through Viacom, Lei Shidong set his sights on Paramount Pictures. In 1993, Lei Shidong successfully acquired Paramount. In 1994, Viacom acquired Blockbuster for $8.4 billion. The 71-year-old said: "My goal is to be number one. I want everything I do to be number one. I'm not saying I can do it, I'm not saying I should, I'm just saying I like it. "Under Lei Shidong's leadership, Paramount has produced a series of iconic films that reflect the shared emotions and deep resonance of the human heart.

In terms of personal charisma, he may not be as good as GE's Welch, in terms of creative ability, he may not be as good as Disney's Eisner, and in terms of adventurous spirit, he seems to be far behind the media mogul Murdoch. However, his legendary life and extraordinary entrepreneurial passion far surpassed his opponents.
