Chapter 211: Crazy Hanzawa Naoki

Lawyers in the U.S. are really capable of turning black into white. Both individuals and companies are afraid of lawsuits. This is true even for movie giants like Disney.

What's more, Zhang Fan's company did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire well-known masters in the industry who can entangle, which can be called the master who will not let go after biting, and must tear off a piece of meat to be satisfied.

With these lawyers and financial experts here, it is not easy for Disney to cheat Zhang Fan's money.

Of course, Zhang Fan himself knows very well that these are all things that treat the symptoms but not the root cause. What can really solve the source of trouble is that you are strong enough.

If Zhang Fan has irresistible resources and channels in his hands, then for the sake of future cooperation, Disney will not do too much to say anything.

And if Zhang Fan himself is so powerful that people dare not look at it directly, such as Murdoch or Lei Shidong, who is not only rich but also holds a large media group. Naturally, the Hollywood studios didn't dare to provoke him.

Relying on lawyers and financial experts to protect their interests is only the most rudimentary stage.

When Zhang Fan was not satisfied, he didn't know that there were already many people who envied him.

After all, it is very rare for foreigners to be able to achieve such outstanding results when they set foot in Hollywood for the first time. Xenophobia in Hollywood is no worse than anywhere else, and it is very difficult for foreigners to get ahead in Hollywood.

Even the British, who are of the same species, are invisibly ostracized in Hollywood, let alone people from other countries. It is the Jews who are treated a little more preferentially.

After a month of continuous releases, the slumdog millionaires gradually began to paint. Box office revenues have plummeted. This is true of any film, and there is no way for this film to circumvent this rule.

However, other overseas markets are still continuing to be released, providing a small but continuous box office income for the film.

By the time the film was officially released from North America, the slumdog millionaire had grossed more than $400 million at the global box office. The result of the prediction is that the final box office revenue should be able to exceed 450 million 500 million dollars!

A foreigner-invested film can achieve this kind of achievement, which directly sent Zhang Fan into the Hollywood circle and firmly established himself.

Next, after the awards season. This film, which caters to critics in Europe and the United States who like to watch the miserable lives of foreigners, has begun to be nominated by more and more film festivals. An award-winning feast is about to begin!

At the beginning, these awards did not have much influence, and Zhang Fan, as an investor and director, did not go to these film festivals with many names in person, but flew directly to Japan.

If the previous song Moves Like Jagger allowed Zhang Fan to gain a foothold in Japan and open the door to the market. The slum millionaire's booming sale added fuel to the fire and made Zhang Fan crazy popular in Japan.

When he arrived at Haneda Airport, hundreds of fans were there to pick him up. Many people held up posters of who could become a millionaire and shouted at Zhang Fan.

For the Japanese, the people who have been able to achieve great success in the United States and Hollywood are their idols, especially Asians.

Just like the previous Bruce Lee and the big-nosed Dragon brother, they had crazy popularity in Japan when they were popular, and now it is Zhang Fan's turn.

Moreover, after the success of Zhang Fan's film, many American media also began to take the initiative to hype the theme of the American Dream for Zhang Fan, which further stimulated Zhang Fan's fame in Asia, especially in those places deeply influenced by the United States.

And the Hanzawa Naoki starring Zhang Fan swept the Japanese TV screen with a momentum that made the entire Japanese entertainment industry jaw-dropping.

When Naoki Hanzawa premiered, he shocked the Japanese entertainment industry with more than 20% of the ratings, and directly suppressed Takuya Kimura's new drama.

Later, as the box office of the millionaire in the slums continued to skyrocket, the ratings of this TV series also soared like a rocket. Before half of the episodes aired, the ratings had already soared to an unprecedented thirty-five percent!

You must know that after entering the Internet age, the TV drama market in Japan, like other countries in the world, is gradually going downhill.

In this environment where the overall ratings of Japanese dramas are gradually declining, this crazy Hanzawa Naoki has become a national work at this time, causing a ratings frenzy throughout Japan!

After seeing Zhang Fan's figure, many fans shouted and rushed through the cordon of airport security guards and rushed to Zhang Fan. Looking at the momentum, it's like trying to eat Zhang Fan directly!

The corners of Zhang Fan's eyes twitched slightly, but he still waved hello to those fans with a smile on his face.

At this time, the assistants around Zhang Fan, who received high salaries every month, played a role, and they quickly stepped forward to build a cordon to block all the fans who rushed over. And Zhang Fan smiled after a little relief and signed autographs for those fans.

After a delay of more than half an hour at the airport, Zhang Fan finally got into the car and drove towards the city.

Zhang Fan did not go to his own company, but went directly to Fuji TV.

"It's an honor for our TV station to be able to work with you!" In Koji Takeda's office, Koji Takeda, who was full of red face, was very emotional, and kept expressing his gratitude to Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan's achievements in the United States, as well as Naoki Hanzawa's crazy ratings, have brought great benefits to Koji Takeda. The better Zhang Fan mixes, the better Hanzawa Naoki's results will prove that his vision is outstanding. This was decisive for Koji Takeda to fight for the right to inherit the family. In this case, Koji Takeda is naturally courteous to Zhang Fan, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is bowing and worshipping.

"How's the TV series ratings?" After a few brief greetings, Zhang Fan's attention was on the ratings of the TV series. After all, this is the basis on which he opened up the situation in Japan.

"The ratings of the last episode have exceeded 37%!" Koji Takeda's voice trembled slightly, "Judging from the current situation, it is very likely to break through the forty percent mark!" ”

There are many TV stations in Japan, and there are countless TV dramas. And what can break through 40% is definitely a masterpiece that can be recorded in history! Such a masterpiece came from his Koji Takeda, and at this time he had completely established himself in Fuji TV!

"Forty percent?" Zhang Fan raised his hand and rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, and then asked out loud, "There are no TV dramas in the history of Japanese TV dramas that have exceeded 50% of the ratings, right?" ”

"Fifty percent?!" Koji Takeda's eyes widened, and he had an incredible expression on his face, "After so many years, there are only a handful of ratings that can exceed 40 percent, where can there be more than 50 percent?!" ”

"Good." In Koji Takeda's incomprehensible gaze, Zhang Fan smiled and nodded, "Then let's make history together!" ”

"......" Koji Takeda was directly shocked by Zhang Fan's thoughts. He never thought that Zhang Fan would have such crazy thoughts!

I just wanted to say that Zhang Fan was too arrogant, but in an instant, I thought of Zhang Fan's crazy achievements in Hollywood and Naoki Hanzawa's constantly soaring ratings. An unquenchable desire suddenly rose in my heart!

"Fifty percent! Fifty percent!! Koji Takeda kept walking back and forth in his luxurious office as if he was obsessed, his face flushed, and his eyes were already bloodshot!

If Naoki Hanzawa can reach 50% of the ratings, then Koji Takeda, as the person who promotes this TV series, will definitely prove his ability with an irrefutable attitude! In this case, unless there is an uncontrollable accident, it is impossible for those competitors to compete with him for inheritance!

"How?" After forcing himself to calm down, Koji Takeda looked at Zhang Fan with a gaze full of anticipation.

"You're the expert at that." Zhang Fan shrugged his shoulders, "Mobilize all the resources available in your hands to frantically promote this drama and attract more people to lock their TV sets at home on this TV series." Once you can really achieve this goal, then both you and Fuji TV will gain something like never before! ”

What Zhang Fan didn't say in his heart was that he himself would get unprecedented benefits because of this! After all, this TV series is starring himself, and it was filmed and produced by his own branch in Japan!

Koji Takeda's mind has been completely mobilized by Zhang Fan, and the only thing left in his mind is how to achieve 50% ratings. I went back to my desk and took out a pen and paper to scribble on something, and even kept muttering some names in my mouth!

Zhang Fan was not in a hurry at all, and sat quietly on the sofa drinking tea. He even took out his mobile phone to text and chat with Mayu Watanabe.

During this time in the United States, I have been busy working, going everywhere to promote movies. It's a busy day. Although Li Ruhui is with her, it's okay to hug and hug, kiss the little mouth or something. But if you want to go to home plate, you will still be rejected. Zhang Fan has been holding back all this time.

In fact, if Zhang Fan didn't have many scandal objects and had ambiguous relationships with many beautiful women. Li Ruhui is estimated to have been willing to throw herself into his arms for a long time. It's just that as a smart woman, Li Ruhui is obviously unwilling to invest in Zhang Fan before he can pay attention!

For this kind of thing, Zhang Fan can only express regret. But I didn't pay much attention to it. After all, he has several close confidants.

Before coming to Japan this time, Zhang Fan had already contacted Watanabe Mayu Ueto. Even Mayu Watanabe told Zhang Fan that he would give him a surprise!

Zhang Fan was already looking forward to the surprise that Mayu Watanabe would give him in the evening. [.]
