In the constant flashing lights and shutter sounds of "pop" and "pop", Li Xiaole walked to the front of the stage and looked at these black-pressed reporters, as if they were the notorious Captain Jack Sparrow, standing on the judgment bench in Navy Square, those soldiers with guns, aiming at him in all directions, just waiting for the opportunity to give themselves a fatal blow, then swarmed up, taking their bodies to get the government bounty.

Li Xiaole looked at them, and reminded himself in his heart———— no matter what, he couldn't give them such a chance, this is why he has been forcing himself to be a winner, not a loser.

In Los Angeles, Cork and Canon stared nervously at the TV screen, looking at Li Xiaole in the picture. This kind of scene is not unfamiliar to them, this kind of new film press conference is commonplace, and many companies will hold it, but seeing Li Xiaole's Gu Pan Zixiong looking here in the picture at this moment, as if staring at himself through the screen, both of them have a feeling of hairiness in their hearts.

It seems that Li Xiaole has long known that they are sitting in front of the TV, and Cork can't help but feel a little inexplicably angry in his heart, he has been in the big league for so long, but he will have a fear of this hairy boy...... It's a weird feeling.

"We are very happy that the Drama Council can cooperate with Black Pearl Company again, and the Council has given high praise to him for his previous directorial strength in "Sherlock", so we feel extremely honored to cooperate with the two sides again this time...... "Fred, chairman of the Drama Council, expressed his views on this cooperation, obviously everyone hopes that his official words can be said quickly, and everyone is looking forward to Li Xiaole to speak, whether they hate him or like him.

From beginning to end, this press conference has not revealed any news about the new film, which makes everyone feel that they are scratched by something.

"Next, I would like to invite our director Li Xiaole to speak for you." Fred gestured to Li Xiaole.

Li Xiaole nodded to Fred and leaned in front of the microphone: "Mr. Xie Xie Xie." He looked at the expectant reporters in the audience and suddenly remembered what he had faced at the first press conference when he was filming "Soldier Assault".

At that time, everyone was amazed at his youth, and he saw doubt, surprise, confusion and, of course, ridicule and disdain in the eyes of the reporters.

And now, 5 years later, in such a bad situation, he can still see doubts, but it is no longer the majority, obviously, he went too fast, filming "The Walking Dead", "Iron Man", "Sherlock" won 4 Oscar technical awards, has become famous all over the world, but everyone is still not optimistic about him, doubting that he, a young director who has just come to Hollywood for more than 2 years, can come up with a work that overwhelms the crowd.

For most reporters, today's press conference, they are all about how they create topics, because wherever he goes, there are all kinds of fun and controversy, they have a lot of questions, they want to know how they react to the current situation, whether to bow their heads and surrender, or to fight and continue to fight to the death.

What they may hope most is that they grit their teeth and accuse the six major crimes, and then shoot a mediocre movie as a tragic hero, and be defeated by a group of big directors at the end of the year, completely fall, and roll out of the United States with the tail between their legs, just like Wu Yusen, who is also from China.

Li Xiaole suddenly showed a calm smile at the camera, held the microphone, looked at everyone and said calmly:

"I know that everyone is here today, not only to understand the question of my new film, but also to know the truth about the rights and wrongs of Black Pearl Company recently, and where our company will go in the future."

The reporters in the audience straightened their posture slightly, listened attentively, and listened attentively to what kind of speech Li Xiaole was about to make.

"First of all, regarding the copyright dispute over "Slumdog Millionaire", our Black Pearl Company has been authorized by the original author Vikas Svalup very early on, and Sony has confused the copyright ownership in India through disgraceful means, if we are willing to fight a lawsuit, I believe our company will definitely win, and after the meeting, I will send a copy of the copyright transfer agreement we signed with Vikas Svalup in three years."

As soon as Li Xiaole said this, the reporters at the scene were in an uproar, this kind of direct attack on competitors in the live broadcast, where is the new film press conference? This is clearly a declaration of war!!

But just when everyone hadn't reacted, Li Xiaole suddenly changed his words and smiled calmly:

"However, I personally like director Danny Boyle very much, I have watched his "Trainspotting" more than a dozen times, I appreciate his shooting methods very, very much, and I have learned a lot from him, so I don't want the conflict of interests between the two companies to hurt innocent filmmakers, so we decided to give up the rights to "Slumdog Millionaire" and not pursue Sony."

As soon as Li Xiaole's words came out, all the reporters were stunned? What's going on? Just now I vowed to fight Sony to the end, but now I'm soft? Could it be that the Black Pearl Company is finally going to bow to the big leagues? This arrogant Chinese kid would even succumb to authority?

And just when the reporters were puzzled, Li Xiaole on the stage suddenly lowered his voice and continued to announce:

"As for Warner, Fox, Universal, Sony, Paramount, and Disney protesting against our "Avengers" series infringing on the copyright of their superhero movies, our Black Pearl position is also very simple, it is very clear in the contract we signed with the Marvel formula, that is, the copyright of the "Avengers" series, and the superheroes in the Avengers do not conflict with theirs, no one in this world says that there is only one Spider-Man, only one team of X-Men......"

Speaking of this, Li Xiaole slowed down his tone, making sure that the people watching his live broadcast could hear every word he said:

"If according to their theory, the copyright of superheroes is unique, they say that they will take legal means to ban the filming of our Avengers series...... And what I want to tell them is that our Black Pearl Company will also use legal means to sue them for infringing the copyright of our Avengers series, in the comics, Spider-Man, X-Men, Daredevil are all part of the Avengers, yes, we will also sue these six companies ~ prohibit them from filming any superhero in the Avengers ~~~"

Li Xiaole's words echoed over the news hall with the microphone, and all the reporters were stunned in place, everyone looked at the people next to them, and opened their mouths wide, their first reaction was that Li Xiaole was completely crazy......

Cork and Canon, who were in the Los Angeles office, almost dropped their jaws in surprise when they saw this scene, they didn't expect that Li Xiaole would throw out such crazy remarks.

Theoretically, if the six major companies sue "The Avengers", the case will be heard for more than 2 years, during which Black Pearl is not allowed to shoot the series, but this lawsuit is risky, once Black Pearl can finally win the lawsuit, the six major companies may have to pay tens of millions of dollars in compensation to compensate for the loss of the delay in the filming of "The Avengers".

The big six have nothing to fear is that even if they lose the lawsuit, the Black Pearl Company will be dragged down by them at that time, and the six of them will bear tens of millions of dollars together, which is not an unacceptable loss, after all, compared to the profits that the Black Pearl Company takes away at the box office every time, this is really nothing.

And Black Pearl is crazy to sue the six major studios at the same time? It's just crazy! You must know that what he sued was not a movie, but "X-Men", "Spider-Man", "Fantastic Four" and other blockbuster series of the same level as the Avengers......

Now the situation has changed, Black Pearl and the Big Six are suing each other, and each has strong copyright evidence, and both sides will not be able to shoot all Marvel movies during the court trial.

Even if the six powerful studios lose these series, there is no doubt that they can survive, but if the Black Pearl Company loses the Avengers, what can it do to continue to hold on?

Even if they can hold on? If Black Pearl loses the lawsuit after two years, this may be quite large, then Black Pearl will compensate the six major studios, it will not be tens of millions of dollars, "X-Men" + "Spider-Man" + "Fantastic Four", each series is the ace blockbuster of each company, if the filming is postponed...... This compensation is likely to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars......

On the day the court pronounces the verdict, Black Pearl will immediately go bankrupt......

Fred, the chairman of the Drama Council, and Charlie, a member of the committee, turned their heads to look at Li Xiaole at the same time, and the reporters were panicked, only the editor-in-chief of Time Magazine, John Huey, laughed, he secretly gave Li Xiaole a thumbs up in the panicked crowd of reporters, the declaration and whether to really file a lawsuit are two different things, such a tough surface attitude, at least in the eyes of the public, the Black Pearl Company did not take a loss, can greatly save its image on the verge of shattering, Li Xiaole's public relations crisis is really great.

Li Xiaole looked at the faces below that were either panicked or confused, and knew that the atmosphere was almost over, and it was time to announce his trump card, stood up and held the microphone and said loudly:

"I would like to announce the last thing of today's press conference, our company has decided that we will co-produce a new film with the Drama Council, an Indian-themed film - Life of Pi, and I will have the lead actor below. Sura Shama, Irrfan Khan, Emma Watson......"

With Li Xiaole's declaration, the actors who have been waiting behind the stage for a long time, Sura Shama, Irfan Khan, and Emma Watson came out nervously in countless flashes......
