78. A special way of cooperating
McMartin, a Chinese-American young man, is a student in a middle school in Los Angeles, who loves rock music, and he has a very timid and fearful father, commonly known as the wreck, named McFall, who is often bullied by the company's boss and former rival Biff. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Martin is very unaccustomed to Biff who often comes to his house to show off his might, but there is no way.
Martin had a very good New Year's friend, Mr. Brown, a madman doctor at Stanford University. One night, Dr. Brown researched a time machine and asked Martin to join him at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night to witness the historic moment.
At the time of the test, because the doctor was assassinated by terrorists because he used the nuclear materials of Libyan terrorists and did not make nuclear weapons for them, Martin was involved, and saw the doctor killed, and Martin was shocked and sad to sit on a time machine from 2016 to 1990 in order to save his life.
Returning to the past, Martin finds the Doctor, who was unknown at the time, and tells him what happened in the future. Because the doctor was worried that Martin's crossing would cause chaos in the timeline and that something bad had happened, Martin's mother, who was supposed to be in love with his father, fell in love with Martin by mistake.
In order to ensure a normal future, in order to be able to go back, Martin must let his timid and fearful father fall in love with his mother, and stop Biff from snatching love.
Eventually, Martin completed the task and made it back in time.
The above is the main content of this "Back to the Future".
The wonderful plot, the unconventional funny plot and the warm father-son relationship, etc., are the selling points of this movie. This also contributed to the fact that the film won 270 million US dollars in the first week of the rice market, and Huaxia broke out with a good result of 700 million RMB. At present, the total box office around the world has reached as much as 500 million US dollars, compared with the cost of investing 200 million, this movie can be said to have paid off and made a steady profit!
The capital has returned, and Li Sen is not worried for the time being. He sat in the studio office, looking at a financial report. This is the financial revenue and expenditure announced by Marvel this year, and after reading it, Li Sen used four Chinese characters to describe it, that is, 'not optimistic'.
Marvel is now considering selling the rights to some of its animated characters as a way to get funding for the company's continued operations. He threw an olive branch to many film companies. Of course, there was no contact with DF Films, and this financial report was copied from Warner by Lysento Relations.
Marvel's meaning is very clear, sell Spider-Man and X-Men series characters, according to how much money each character has, and if it is made into a movie in the future, they want to get a commission. But as far as the current news is concerned, the maximum commission amount given by major film companies is not more than 1 percent......
The troubled Marvel is struggling with whether to sell it, and Kevin Feige is in a dilemma. If you sell it, the film and television copyright of your beloved character will be completely cut off from yourself, which is no different from giving up your own son. If you don't sell it, the company is finished.
If the father does not sell his son, the whole family will starve to death. Selling a few sons can still support the family's expenses. After all, there are many other sons in the family, and he can't lose the big because of the small, and in the end he chooses to take care of the overall situation.
Sell!
Spider-Man sold to Sony, X-Men sold to 20th Century Fox!
However, just as he was about to sign the papers, Old Man Stanley pushed the door open.
"Hi Kevin! Have you watched a really good movie recently? "The old man was dressed fashionably and wore brown sunglasses.
"I still have the heart to watch movies, the company is almost finished!" In front of the old man, Kevin didn't shy away from anything, and poured bitter water.
"All roads lead to Rome, do you have to sell my sons?" The old man looked at the names of the characters on the document and said with some sadness.
"Well, I can't help it!" Kevin looked bitter. Today's comic market is not as good as before, many years ago comics were very hot, but now the Internet is developed and film technology is mature, and the number of people who read comics is gradually decreasing.
Just when the two Marvel bigwigs were sighing, suddenly Kevin's phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number, from New York.
Kevin answered curiously, he thought it was some guy selling stocks, but the voice of the other party was very young.
"Hi there, Mr. Kevin, I'm listen! It's the one who sings. β
βlistenοΌοΌβ Kevin was a little confused, "What's going on?" β
"I want to tell you that I have another identity, I am the second shareholder of DF Films, and I can be regarded as an executive director!" Listen explained unequivocally, "Don't doubt your ears, what I say is true." β
Kevin finally figured out the purpose of this kid and said with a smile, "So what? Do you want to be involved in buying comic book characters? How good can you get a price? β
Listen: "I'm very interested in your company's comic book characters, I'm a Marvel fan!" But I have a better way to work together. β
"A better way to work together? It also depends on whether I'm interested or not! Kevin said he didn't have a fifteen-year-old in mind.
Of course, Li Sen knew that the other party looked down on children, but he continued: "You will definitely like the way I said cooperation, after all, no one wants to sell their son." β
"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Kevin's heart was touched.
"Haha, please forgive me for my presumptuousness. I have to explain to you, in my opinion, the comic book characters you created by yourself are like your own sons, and if you sell the movie rights of the characters, you will lose your ...... I think I can understand a little bit ......"
Kevin on the other end of the phone stopped talking, and after a period of silence, he finally said in a hoarse voice, "Listen, right?" If we have time, let's meet and talk. β
"No problem at all, let's meet at a place in two days! You can go and investigate the situation of our company, although it is a newly established company, but the two works launched are very high box office, my principle is to make money together. β
After hanging up the phone, Kevin leaned back in his chair, glancing at the contract documents on the table, his mind constantly recalling what Listen had said.
He asked the old man next to him: "Do you know DF Films?" β
"I know, I'm about to recommend you to their new movie, Back to the Future!"
After the old man finished speaking, Kevin immediately sat up straight, opened the computer webpage, and searched for the name of the movie.
The headline on the page was a piece of news about the box office of the Back to the Future movie.
"The box office explosion of "Back to the Future" in the first week is called a dark horse, or it will top the annual total box office champion, and the global box office is estimated to be 1 billion US dollars!"
The data of the final total box office prediction really stunned Kevin. He stared blankly at the computer screen and didn't speak for nearly five minutes.
Then he got up, put all the contract documents of several film companies on the table into a drawer, and said, "Interesting, I really want to know what the special cooperation method that young people are talking about......
