Zhang Mo is more or less half an industry insider, although his main focus is on the domestic film industry, but he still knows some well-known people in Hollywood.

One of the two foreigners in front of him who didn't look amazing in a beach T-shirt was Augsge, the director of the distribution department of 20th Century Fox.

Zhang Mo couldn't help jumping in his heart, could it be that 20th Century Fox was interested in "The Return of the Great Sage"?

Zhang Mo suddenly became excited.

What Fox represented in Hollywood in the 20th century should be known to anyone who knows a little bit about the film industry.

In 1984, the media magnate Rupert . Murdoch from Mark. Rich and Marvin. Davis bought Twentieth Century Fox, and he didn't make much changes to the film department, but he poached Barry from Paramount. Diller, who created the Fox Television Network. Television networks are good for studios, such as 2007, when Twentieth Century Fox brought the hugely popular animated TV series The Simpsons to the big screen.

Under the banner of 20th Century Fox, the sensational "Star Wars" still has great potential in the 21st century, and the new "Star Wars" trilogy has grossed more than $2.6 billion worldwide, and the company's other blockbuster series is "X-Men", because the results of this set of films are on the rise, so a new sequel is also in the pipeline. Other blockbuster films from Twentieth Century Fox include Home Alone series, Independence Day, Desert Island, Titanic, Avatar and Night at the Museum. Among them, "Titanic" and "Avatar" are masterpieces that are the box office champions.

In addition, Twentieth Century Fox has two distinctive subsidiaries, Blue Sky Studios, which produces 3D animated feature films, and Fox Searchlight, which distributes independent films. To date, the three films produced by Blue Sky Studios, "Ice Age", "Robot Adventures" and "Ice Age 2" have been so successful that they can almost compete with the two animation giants of Pixar and DreamWorks. Fox Searchlight, on the other hand, is a star in the independent film industry, having released acclaimed films such as "Little Sunshine Beauty".

Zhang Mo and Xing Kai couldn't help but look at each other, having been immersed in the film industry for so many years, they naturally knew what the quality of "The Return of the Great Sage" was, it was a movie that was enough to compete with Hollywood's top works, and even surpassed it to some extent.

If 20th Century Fox can really watch "The Return of the Great Sage" and release it on its behalf, it may not be a stepping stone for Chinese films to enter the Hollywood market.

"Lao Xing. You go first, I'll stay and watch it again! ”

Zhang Mo faintly felt that he was about to catch a big news, said hello to Xing Kai, and hurriedly turned around and went to the ticket office to buy another movie ticket for "The Return of the Great Sage" - the previous time he watched it was a free ticket, but if he wanted to watch it a second time, he could only spend money to buy a ticket.

"Hey~Lao Zhang ......"

Xing Kai looked at Zhang Mo's excited expression and shook his head, after all, he was not in the news business, and he was not so sensitive to this kind of thing. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to go back to the hotel first and finish writing the film review of "The Return of the Great Sage".

Zhang Mo bought another movie ticket for "The Return of the Great Sage", he was lucky, many fans who watched the first show lined up again to buy movie tickets for the second show, and when it was his turn to buy it, there was not much left, and it seemed that this one was full again.

The facts were not beyond Zhang Mo's expectations, the second screening of "The Return of the Great Sage" once again shocked all the audience at the scene, when they walked out of the screening hall. Zhang Mo even saw a solemn expression on Augsgo's face.

And with the increase in the number of screenings, "The Return of the Great Sage" quickly spread in a very short period of time. It has attracted the attention of many Western media and fans.

"Hi Emily, did you hear that? There is an animated film from China that is said to be particularly good, should we go and see it? ”

"That movie about the Monkey King you're talking about? Haha, I've seen it, and the visual effects in it are incredible. Stunning and unbeatable! ”

"I didn't expect China's animation film industry to progress so fast, the visual effects of this movie are so good, I thought I had entered another real world when I wore 3D glasses and watched it."

"yes, yes, I've watched it twice. I want to see it a third time! ”

"The Return of the Great Sage? Haha, this movie I know, the biggest surprise of this year's Cannes is this movie! ”

"No, sir, why don't you have a ticket again? I've been in line twice! ”

"Quick, Mr. Petredge, help me contact the head of Matrix Films, I want to negotiate the distribution rights of "The Return of the Great Sage" in Europe!"

"The Return of the Great Sage" quickly became popular in Cannes with its excellent quality and superb visual effects, and the relevant news even appeared on the official website of the Cannes Film Festival, and soon spread to China through the media.

"The Return of the Great Sage" is a hit in Cannes, and European fans are lining up to watch the movie."

"Zero negative reviews! With a cost of 200 million, "The Return of the Great Sage" is the top animation in Hollywood! ”

"The venue is full! "The Return of the Great Sage" tells European audiences what Chinese animation is! ”

"Can you imagine what 3D ink animation looks like? "The Return of the Great Sage" tells you what it means to be a god. ”

"Matrix Pictures, which has just been established for less than a year, has shown us the world's most powerful special effects technology, should domestic filmmakers blush?"

"20th Century Fox director Augsge appeared in the theater of "The Return of the Great Sage", and "The Return of the Great Sage" is expected to counterattack the North American market......"

Tian Xiaopeng, director of "The Return of the Great Sage", said that at present, filmmakers from Japan, South Korea, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy and other countries have expressed their intention to introduce "The Return of the Great Sage......

……

If at first Chinese fans still suspected that the news released by the media was just a public relations advertorial of Matrix Pictures, but as more and more related news appeared, each one with a nose and an eye, and some people also translated the official report of the French media and the Cannes Film Festival, then more and more people have believed in the authenticity of this news.

Especially when many Chinese and international students who worked and studied in France went to Cannes to watch the screening of this film, and praised this film with various amazing, shocking and incredible remarks, it also made domestic fans' expectations for "The Return of the Great Sage" rise to the top.
