"Due to the relationship between the long holiday and the holiday, this Monday on July 5 seems to be very strong, and the market and Sunday's single-day 130 million are only slightly down by 10 million, and "Codename SHERO" has not diminished, still earning 65 million yuan, and the North American box office has exceeded 300 million on the fourth day of release!"

"As of July 4, the overseas box office has reached 200 million US dollars, and the global box office in the first weekend is 445 million, which can be said to be the first among superhero films, and experts believe that the excellent 3D effect of "Codename Shero" has become the key to success: 'Maybe you don't feel the story, but after "Alice", I think everyone will know that not all movies have such good 3D effects, just like "Avatar", many people will go into the cinema for special effects'. Novel www."

"July 6 will be the key, what about the decline on the first working day? Does "Codename Shero" have the potential of more than 2 billion? Or is it only a first-week méfen movie? ”

""Codename Shero" won 13 million in North America on July 6, maintaining a golden body of 10 million, it is reported that it set off a whirlwind in Beijing, and it is difficult to find a ticket, will it repeat the miracle of "Avatar" with a box office of 200 million in overseas regions?"

"The crazy growth of the Chinese market, Paul. Degara Bideen said that in half a year, hundreds of new theaters have been opened in China, and the difficulty of 200 million has been reduced, and the goal of "Codename SHERO" should be 230 million! ”

"On July 9th, the file opened again on Friday, and the box office of "Codename SHERO" rebounded to 25 million ......"

"On July 10, "Codename SHERO" reported 25 million, and the trend over the weekend was very stable, and the long-term signs were emerging."

"On July 11, it received 23 million, and "Codename SHERO" broke through the 400 million mark! 410 million sat firmly on the second week's championship throne and won two consecutive villages in the fiercely competitive July! This is also the best second-week data in July, the fastest to exceed 400 million, and the 3D passion accumulated in "Avatar" is fully released in "Codename Shero"! The global box office has stabilized in the long run, after 200 million in the first weekend, it has contributed 300 million so far in the second week, and the global box office has been 900 million in 10 days, which is faster than "Avatar"! ”

"The Feminist Association praised 'Codename Shero' and said, 'The future affirmative action needs more movies like this and superheroes like this'"

"When will Big Dream Movies be funded? When will it be available? This is the most concerned issue for investors, but unfortunately, this film and television kingdom under construction has always adhered to the privatization strategy and has no plans to go public in the short term. "Privatisation is important to us that we can focus on moving the business forward rather than keeping shareholders happy," Vijri said. Besides, the film and television industry is not suitable for the expansion strategy of rapid development, it is more suitable for the Internet'. Disney Group President Robert Brown. Iger claimed, 'As long as the big dream needs it, Disney will inject money again at any time'......"

See the last piece of news, Kevin. Faigie finally had a bit of a headache, he pinched the bridge of his nose, put down the mouse, picked up the mug, and took a deep sip: even though he knew that Robert's statement was somewhat intimidating to potential poachers, Kevin had to admit that he had a bit of a taste for it...... However, as the owner, although Disney has a shrewd style, he has always been supportive, and there are not many points he can complain about, and in terms of the performance of Big Dream, it is also worthy of Disney's attention......

Yes, for Kevin, what he cares more about should be the excellent performance of "Codename Shero" - although it is a bit narrow-minded to say this, but after getting rid of Jennifer, although the box office of "Steel 2" has risen, the follow-up is weak, and the reality of poor reputation is ahead, it is indeed difficult for normal people to congratulate "Codename Shero", especially Kevin, the pressure on his shoulders must be greater: he thinks that Jennifer does not play much of a driving role in the box office of the "Iron Man" series, so Marvel bought out Big Dream Iron Man" series, and after Jennifer revealed that she was going to open a new "Codename Shero", she was kicked out of the sequel, let alone let her interfere in the production. And the final fact is that the two 3D movies produced by Jennifer are both acclaimed, and they have starred in it, and the role is definitely not the mainstream "Alice", which is not good-looking in his opinion, but it has sold 1 billion worldwide, 400 million more than "Steel 2", and the reputation is not too bad.

Based on the high uncertainty of the box office, the film industry has always been more superstitious, how can Jennifer not be embarrassed by such a good performance? Maybe with Jennifer's participation, "Iron Man 2" can also reach 1 billion? Will word-of-mouth also explode? What if she was invited to participate in the production? Although he still thinks that "Iron Man" is not a Little Pepper movie, this role is dispensable, but Kevin really can't prove it - to be honest, if it weren't for Marvel not making movies after all, and the film studio was his own territory, the box office of "Steel 2" was not bad, and his position within the company was probably a little precarious now.

"Steel 2" has a budget of 200 million and more than 600 million worldwide, and the box office is barely recouping, and the profit prospects around it should be pretty good after that, and it will not affect the follow-up operation of the first phase. And Kevin also made up his mind at this time, "The Avengers" must be made into IMAX3D - in his opinion, the quality difference between "Steel 2" and "Codename SHERO" is not so big, at least in the story, mainly in the fight screen and 3D special effects, I have to admit that if the special effects are sincere enough, then the action movie must still have a better effect of 3D, and a more immersive sense of substitution.

"What else can we learn from? Humor? That's right, the light-hearted tone, I learned it from "Iron Man", right...... The point of complaining and accessing new technology has been carried forward by them. Sitting cross-legged in the swivel chair, Kevin thought sourly, "Jon. Favreau is indeed a bit inaccurate in the second part, of course, this is inevitable, because the ending of the first part is too good, Tony has grown, but the second part begins to create his psychological problems, which inevitably makes people feel regressive - this is also a common problem for sequels, the first episode is hopeful, and the second episode always seems overly depressing, but don't think that the creators are not without hardships......"

For this wordless contest, he is indeed a little angry, and he is determined to win back a city in "The Avengers" - "Captain America" and "Thor" are both movies with a budget of more than 100 million, and there are no stars to lead, and they cannot be compared with "Codename Shero", Kevin has high hopes for "The Avengers": the director is the same, the investment is the same, and the star appeal can be barely regarded as the same under the crowd tactics here, the parent company is the same, and the level of marketing is the same. In the end, it is the quality of the film that determines the box office result - as a producer, he must prove it to everyone: even without Jennifer. Jefferson, Marvel can also make a popular and popular movie, and the box office will not be much worse than "Codename SHERO"!

As for "Avatar", he didn't want to compare at all, the movie directed by Cameron seems to have its own box office record halo, which is not Jennifer's decision alone, nor is it something that Marvel can challenge.

"What else?" He unconsciously tugged at the hairs on his arm, "The merits of Codename Shero? Well, the pace is bright and there isn't much drama, which is a very good point......"

Just as he was drawing nutrients from "Codename Shero" in reverse, the phone on the desk suddenly rang, and Kevin picked it up, "Which one?" ”

"Mr. Feige, Robert. Mr. Iger is online. The secretary's voice was a little tense with excitement, and Kevin was taken aback and shouted quickly, "Cut in!" - Bob! ”

Although he is only the person in charge of the film studio, it is said that he is one layer worse than the CEO of Marvel, and it is impossible for Kevin to skip the grade and contact Robert, but Disney's core business has always been film, it is the driving force for the development of the rest of the group, and it is also the most risky investment in the whole group. He will definitely still have this basic workplace wisdom.

"Hey, Kevin." Robert also seemed to be in high spirits, which made Kevin breathe a sigh of relief, "Listen, I'm here to give you good news - I have brought you a big business, and I have negotiated with Big Dream, and the two-dimensional development of "Codename SHERO" will be jointly responsible for Marvel and Disney, and the draft contract has been drawn up yesterday, and I am preparing to express it to you-"

He didn't finish before he interrupted himself, "Oh, forget, it's none of your business, it's New York—"

Marvel's headquarters are still in New York, but the film studio has been based in Los Angeles. However, Kevin, as a member of Marvel, is also in good spirits about this news - although he is still a little confused, but aside from his personal position, "Codename SHERO" is indeed a mountain of gold and silver, and being able to win this contract is also good news for the headquarters.

"Let's talk about you first." Without waiting for him to speak, Robert quickly changed the subject, "According to the schedule we have drawn up, by the end of this year at the latest, Kelly's entire comic book story will come out, and in 11 years of the Avengers in the comics - in the 12 year of the "Avengers" movie version, Jennifer will return to play Pepper - and Kelly, and the comics will open an MCU parallel line, and set one of Kelly's hidden identities as Pepper, so that everything can be strung together." ”

"Wait!" Even though the identities of the two were separated by one layer - or, if you count Disney itself, it was two floors - Kevin still couldn't help but exclaim, "But-but-"

But during the acquisition negotiations, Disney promised that Marvel would still operate independently, and Disney would not interfere -

The sentence was almost shouted out, but when I heard Robert's obviously flat, restrained 'Huh? Kevin suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and lost the ability to organize language - the doubts of the moment just now were suddenly answered: instead of contacting Marvel to negotiate a specific contract, he went past it to directly negotiate the draft contract, which was obviously a warning to Marvel's senior management that they would not be allowed to have any objections to this matter!

Maybe this whole thing is in the service of a larger strategic goal (is it Warner?). Maybe it's the urgency of the time, and there is no room for internal strife (it's because of Warner!). In short, the attitude of the headquarters is very obvious - Robert even called him personally, and that is enough to tell, isn't it? ――In this matter, Marvel can only choose to cooperate, there is no second way!

But - the story of "Avengers 1" has a prototype in the comics - and, seriously, it could have worked without Jennifer! Really, it will work!

The justification for the reduction of the comics turned in Kevin's mind and he abandoned it - he was well aware that the movie could not completely restore the comics, and, in all fairness, if not Jennifer, but another...... "Codename Shero", starring a star with the same box office and ability as her, and now she will join "The Avengers", Kevin will of course only welcome it, and will also take the same approach as Robert's arrangement: Yes, rashly inserting a newcomer may make comic fans dissatisfied, so I will use my official advantages to make her an old man, can't I?

As for the second point, not to mention, it can be successful without Jennifer, then it will definitely be more successful with Jennifer, besides, Disney's approach obviously has a strategic purpose, will it ruin the entire strategy because of his one-man complex?

His mouth opened and closed a few times, and eventually, Kevin said with a little bitterness, "Ye...... yeah…… It's a-- that's good news......"

"Hehe, yes, good news indeed." Robert's tone immediately rebounded back to his previous cheerfulness, "In a few days, when the global box office surpasses 1 billion, Big Dream will hold a celebration party, and Warners will also pass by - so you have to attend too, and we will announce the good news at the party." ”

OK, it looks like the company's arrangement does have something to do with Warner......

Such a targeted arrangement made Kevin's psychology a little more balanced: although he was forced to work with someone he didn't like, it was a bitter victory to be able to hit a competitor he hated more.

"Don't worry, Bob," he had already adjusted his tone. "I know how to behave."

"D," said Robert, "then I'll hang up, and I'll see you then—oh, yes." ”

Before hanging up the phone, he seemed to remember something, and said casually, "Jennifer also agreed to intervene in the production of "The Avengers", and possibly "Iron Man 3" later-"

Kevin, who has always been an independent producer, suddenly felt the urge to vomit blood, but Robert was not finished, "In exchange, and for the reward for her facilitation of the acquisition of Marvel, we will give 20% of the investment in "Iron Man 3" to Big Dream, and I hope you or the rest of the management will not say anything about this matter." ”

At the end, with a hint of majesty in his tone, Robert paused for a moment until he was sure that Kevin had no objection, and then continued with satisfaction, "--After all, it was The Avengers that she asked for in the first place. ”

So do I have to thank her for her 'grace not to kill'?" Or thank you in your heart or for the benefit of Marvel?

A mouthful of blood was full of blood in his mouth, almost vomiting all over the sky, Kevin took a deep breath, endured the fishy smell and said with a smile, "I...... Got it, Bob, I'll make sure you sign the contract without a hitch. ”

"That's my good boy." Robert chuckled, his tone returning to pleasantness for the second time, "Well, look forward to meeting, goodbye." ”

With a 'snap', the phone was dropped, Kevin took the microphone in his hand, stared at it in silence, and then silently put it back on the body, silently picked it up and threw it on the ground.

"Why 20%?" He stretched out his foot and stepped politely on the poor machine, muttering, "Why, what, yes, 20%?" ”

When the two sides negotiated for the first time, Jennifer's arrogant and rude expression once again surfaced in his mind,

Kevin could well imagine Jennifer's expression when she brought up '20%', and he even remembered the arrogant tone in which she said, 'But I have a feeling now that this thing has become very personal and emotional' -

'If anyone thinks they can take advantage of the Jefferson family......

'Am I a fool?' Do you think I'm a fool? Kevin? ’

'As a reward for facilitating the acquisition of Marvel......

Countless possible causal lines and logical chains flew and swirled in his mind, Kevin had a smile on his face, but the strength of stepping on the microphone became greater and greater: he exchanged 20% of the capital injection rights of "Iron Man 2" for 100 million US dollars, became a shareholder of Marvel with 100 million US dollars, used Marvel's shareholders to facilitate the acquisition of Disney, and finally exchanged Disney's acquisition credit for the 20% capital injection of "Iron Man 3......

After all, it was Avengers that she asked for in the first place. ’

Kevin bent down, picked up the phone and threw it at the glass curtain wall - hehe, she even wanted "The Avengers" at first!
