No one thought that these two guys would turn a good dinner party into a press conference scene!

In the luxurious ballroom of the Carlton Hotel, Harvey picked up the microphone that had been prepared long ago and gave his speech with an impassioned expression.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in fact, in addition to thanking you for your continued support, there is another important thing to announce here. ”

"Just now, my buddies and I decided on a big thing. ”

"Now, even without me telling you, you should know what happened to my friend, Sean, the owner of Hurricane Pictures. ”

"A movie that is currently being screened, has broken countless records in a short period of time, and has been the box office champion in North America for several weeks in a row, after only a month and a half of its release, was told that it would be released early because there was a big-budget movie to be released!"

"I just can't understand why the release of their movie will have such disastrous consequences for our film?"

"Is it because our movies are bad?"

"I see, not necessarily!"

"The movie "Killer Tragedy", even when the three major participated in the distribution, did not exceed 800 screens, but it has always had a high popularity, and the box office is the best proof of this!"

"A week before the three major theaters were fully released, that is, last week, our film made more than $35 million at the box office!"

"Such a movie loved by the audience, no matter how bad the standard is, it can't be any worse, right?"

"So what is the reason?"

"Hehe, as long as you go to the three major theaters, you will know. ”

"Except for one "Die Hard 2", which has been released for more than three months and has less than half of our box office, it is the just-released "Dances with Wolves"!"

"If you look at their producers and distributors, I think you'll soon find out, and they're Time Warner, which just changed owners, and the old 20 Fox. ”

"I don't want to say much about monopolies, which are commonplace in Hollywood. ”

"Most of the guests here today, except for friends from the media, are making independent films. ”

"I want to ask you, in the face of such a domineering and arrogant monopoly, will we still have a bright future?"

"What can we do to get out of this predicament?"

Speaking of this, Harvey looked at the people who were talking below, and glanced at Tang Feng from afar.

It can be said that he has a heart, Tang Feng immediately understood what he meant, it was time for him to appear.

So, Tang Feng, who was chatting with a few new media friends, stepped to Harvey's side, picked up the microphone he handed over, and said loudly: "We must not swallow our anger anymore!"

"Friends, if we don't resist again, then all that awaits us is destruction!"

"Haven't you seen the status quo clearly, are you still complacent about a shoddy film that can pay for itself just by renting and selling a videotape?"

"Excuse me, if one day, the video tape market is no longer hot, will we still have a way to live?"

If Harvey is just talking about things, Tang Feng's words are a bit alarmist!

Almost no one believed that there would be such a day, and everyone was very disdainful of his statement.

But they were still attracted by what he said, and the entire banquet hall instantly became silent.

Everyone stopped talking and looked at Tang Feng, who was full of grim faces, not knowing what else he would say.

In fact, before this, Tang Feng never thought that he would stand in front of everyone in such a high-profile manner.

But this time, that time!

The alliance formed by several companies gave him some confidence, and Xavi's words gave him hope of victory.

In this country that always emphasizes freedom and democracy, although public opinion cannot decide any major matters, if it really mobilizes their enthusiasm, it can make them share the same hatred, and it can also have unexpected effects!

And some things that have happened recently have attracted the attention of many people, and they have also developed deep dissatisfaction with those so-called giants.

Otherwise, there would have been no fan protests, and there would not have been such a big controversy because of the early release of "Killer Tragedy", and there would be a trend of intensification.

Now that there is no need to worry about the release of the movie, if Tang Feng doesn't have the courage to stand up and make his position, he is really a waste who doesn't know how to seize the opportunity!

This time, he's just going to stand up!

He wants everyone to see that he, a victim of extreme monopoly, has enough courage to dare to resist in the face of those behemoths in Hollywood!

He also wants everyone to know that there is another way out for independent filmmakers besides struggling under the harsh realities.

That is to unite and resist this extremely abnormal monopoly together!

At this time, he didn't think about how many chances he had of winning by doing this, he could win a big win or lose a lot.

But he knows that this time, as long as he dares to stand up, no matter what the result is, he has already stood in the most correct position, just because public opinion is like this!

This is what gives him infinite courage and strength!

And what he wants to play now, or what he wants to do, is the hero who has the courage to fight against the big boss and can show the way forward for those independent filmmakers with ideals!

After a pause, Tang Feng continued: "Okay, it may be that this statement is a bit too sensational. ”

"You won't believe it anyway, so I'll tell you something practical. ”

"In fact, as far as I know, the films made by our independent filmmakers are not all shoddy and unqualified. ”

"A lot of those of us are very professional, and there are also very talented, talented filmmakers. ”

"But why, even if we make a good movie, can only be released in art theaters, or have to be forced to sell the rights at a low price?"

"That's the result of the monopoly, and that's what they want to see the most!"

"And for us independent filmmakers, this is the greatest sorrow, and it is also a fate that we cannot escape......"

As he spoke, many people's eyes became confused, and they all knew that this was indeed a fate that they would never be able to get rid of.

In such an environment, there are simply too few people who can really stand out.

Except for Lucas and a few others who broke out in the early years, the independent film industry has nothing to be proud of.

Even Lucas, after he became famous, gradually moved away from this circle, and there was nothing practical except to bring them some hope and give them a vision for the future.

After a short silence, when everyone looked at Tang Feng again, it seemed that from his body, they saw the shadow of Lucas again!

Many people are thinking in their hearts, "Will he be the next Lucas?"

Tang Feng didn't know that many people already saw him as the young Lucas, "Just now Harvey said that we are going to announce a big event. ”

"From now on, Hurricane Pictures, Miramax, Imagination Entertainment, New Line Pictures, and Blue Sky Animation Studios will join forces!"

"Pool all our resources and work together to find a path that belongs to us and is suitable for all independent filmmakers!"

"In the shortest term, we'll shoot our company's Little Sunshine together, and we may also collaborate on Quentin's Deadly Romance. ”

"In the future, we will make more high-quality movies together!"

"We want the world to know that we can make good movies!"

"This is our best resistance!"

"Here, I also want to ask the bosses of the three major theater chains, do you dare to let our movies be shown in your theaters?"

"Do you dare to let the market, let the audience decide the box office of a movie without doing anything?"

"I heard that the major production companies are already aiming for the Christmas file now, so do you dare to let my movie be released at that time?"

"Do you dare to fight in the ring with the small-budget movies I made in a month?"

"Do you have the courage to see the real reaction of the audience and let the market decide everything?"

......

After the dinner, Tang Feng accepted an exclusive interview with the media under Harvey's arrangement.

The most famous of these is Karina, the entertainment editor-in-chief of The New York Times, who admired Tang's courage and hurried back to the headquarters just after the interview.

Because she has promised Tang Feng that she will definitely let this interview be seen by everyone early tomorrow morning!
