On the stage of Happy Camp, Li Lin brought up the topic of "World of Warcraft" from time to time, and forcibly turned a Happy Camp into a promotional variety show of "World of Warcraft", and the backstage staff of Happy Camp looked at the ratings one by one and were happy and happy.

The happy thing is that the ratings are rising, and the painful thing is that this happy base camp has completely departed from its original intention, and under the guidance of the four guests, it has been completely reduced to a propaganda program.

But they couldn't stop.

One is that this is a live broadcast, although it was delayed for half an hour, but it is still a live broadcast, and once it is stopped, it will cause them a ruining disaster, and the other is that the people who come are too big.

The reserve superstar of the new generation of China, one of the four little flowers, and two first-line movie stars, together are not at all something that the happy base camp can afford.

In addition, there is a gold medal group with fierce development momentum standing behind it, not to mention them, even if Mango Tai comes, they have to weigh it.

So, they silently changed this issue of Happy Camp to a special edition of "World of Warcraft", and they were all overjoyed.

"Goodbye, I'll come back when I have time."

Several hosts of the Happy Base Camp said goodbye to Li Lin with a smile.

"I'm afraid I've offended the Happy Camp today."

As soon as he left Mango Channel, Li Lin's good mood was gone, "It's not hard to make Happy Camp into a special edition of "World of Warcraft", and we can be regarded as the first since the launch of Happy Camp." ”

"There are no ancients before, so I don't know if there will be anyone who will come later."

"There is a shortage of everything else in Huaxia, that is, there is no shortage of big-name stars." The corners of Zhou Xun's mouth pulled a hint of a smile. "The Happy Camp has set a precedent today, and it will definitely be painful and happy in the future."

"I can foresee a special edition coming in the future."

Everyone is a star. Everyone is a big name, your happy base camp has opened a special edition of Li Lin's movie, and you don't open it for others? If you don't open it, it is equivalent to looking down on others, and you will immediately offend a large number of people.

So in the future, there will be no shortage of big-name stars in the Happy Camp, but the special edition will definitely be one issue after another.

Squeak!

There was a sound of tires rubbing against the ground, and a black Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of Li Lin with a snap. The car door opened, and a middle-aged man stepped down.

"Let me introduce myself, I am Zhang Guohua, general manager of Wanda Cinema Line." Zhang Guohua said with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Zhang!"

Li Lin glanced at the other party. muttered in his heart, 'Why is he here?'.

"Do you have time for a drink?"

Zhang Guohua said again, his eyes kept falling on Li Lin's body, and he didn't even look at the other three.

Li Lin's eyes flickered, and he guessed his intention to come to him. Then he said to Zhou Xun and the others, you go back first, and follow Zhang Guohua into the car.

Along. Both of them tacitly agreed that they did not speak.

After arriving at the hotel, Zhang Guohua called a large table of dishes, toasted Li Lin vigorously, and waited until it was almost time, then he said: "Mr. Li, I came to you this time in the hope that the gold medal cinema can be in alliance with Wanda Cinema Line." ”

"Alliance?"

Li Lin, who was still drunk just now, immediately became energetic, "How about the alliance?" ”

Wanda's current situation is not good. Wanda, who was jointly blocked by the four major theater chains, couldn't get the source of the film, and Li Lin also suffered the same thing.

in the industry. Some people said hello and didn't let those film companies provide them with films, and the first one to agree was Huayi, the former film and television leader.

However, unlike Wanda, Li Lin had already prepared "World of Warcraft", while Wanda was caught in difficult negotiations with Warner.

However, Li Lin knew that Wanda would give in in the end.

Warner Wanda, Warner in front, Wanda in the back.

The reason for giving in is simple, interests.

If you don't succumb to Warner, Wanda's billions of investment will be completely lost, even if Wanda is a real estate predator, you will feel like a wrench, and the failure of Wanda Cinemas not only represents the failure of Wanda's entry into the entertainment industry, but also the complete failure of Wanda's real estate model.

For Wanda, this is a more terrifying consequence than a loss of billions.

As for dragging it out, it's even more impossible.

Wanda has lost hundreds of millions in two years, and it may continue to lose in the future, even if the Wanda boss is willing, others will not agree.

Wanda is not Microsoft and can lose a lot on Xbox.

So succumbing to Time Warner is inevitable.

"You need a film source, we also need a film source, you might as well join forces." Zhang Guohua looked at Li Lin and said: "Your "World of Warcraft" will be co-screened in two theaters, and we will also hand it over to you when "Batman Prequel 1: The Mystery of the Shadow" is released in the future." ”

"Wanda and Warner have reached a partnership?" Li Lin asked in surprise, he remembered that Wanda should not have been united with Warner now.

"Aren't you working with Universal Pictures as well?" Zhang Guohua asked rhetorically.

In an instant, Li Lin understood.

It's his butterfly effect.

In the previous life, at this time, Wanda was still talking about cooperation with Warner, but now it is different, affected by the cooperation between Li Lin and Universal Films, Wanda accelerated the cooperation negotiations with Warner, and Warner was also worried that Universal Films would take the lead and want to accelerate its entry into the Chinese market, so the two hit it off and forced this cooperation in advance.

"We Wanda can't rely on Warner's film source alone, and your Gold Group can't rely on Universal Films' film source alone, so co-screening is the best choice."

Zhang Guohua tried to persuade Li Lin, "And you don't want your film source to be controlled by a certain film production company!" ”

Wanda didn't want to be controlled by Warner, which would be a huge disaster for Wanda, and similarly, they also thought that Lee didn't want to be controlled by Universal Films, so the two could combine to keep Warner and Universal Films in check, and they would make a profit in the middle.

Of course, Wanda would never have thought that Li Lin's appetite would be so big that he actually wanted to eat Universal Movies in one bite.

"We can work together." Li Lin raised his glass, he knew that in the future, Time Warner was one of the champions of IMAX-3D technology, and their IMAX-3D movie was what Li Lin needed.

"There are two versions of "World of Warcraft", one is a regular version, and the other is an IMAX-3D version, you guys get ready, on June 1, it will be released worldwide."

Time flies very quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it has reached May 20th, at this time, under the supervision of Li Lin, the gold medal cinema line has been assembled in its entirety, and the big "World of Warcraft" poster is hung on it, which can be seen by almost everyone who walks through the mall.

"On June 1st, the shock of "World of Warcraft" is coming, and the gold medal theater will accompany you to watch Warcraft."

The overwhelming propaganda is coming, Li Lin, Zhou Xun, Fan Binbin, Huang Xiaoming, on one TV station after another, Huaxia, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and other places have all been walked around by them, everyone is not on the ground in the publicity, and even because of the relationship of time, they are separately promoted, as much as possible to let those fans who have not played "World of Warcraft" know the news of the attack of "World of Warcraft".

Suddenly, people around the world who pay a little attention to film and television information know that a $150 million investment, directed by Peter Jackson, the father of the Lord of the Rings, produced by Cameron, and using new film technology "World of Warcraft" will be released worldwide on June 1.

However, the overwhelming propaganda did not make Li Lin feel at ease, because Li Lin found himself facing two enemies.

DreamWorks' "Madagascar" will land in North America on May 27, with DreamWorks' "Madagascar" in front of Time Warner's "Batman Prequel 1: The Mystery of the Shadows", and then Spielberg's "War of the Worlds".

Moreover, the opening dates of "World of Warcraft" and "Madagascar" are too close, and they first encountered pressure from Madagascar.

In China, the racing movie "Initial D" began to be promoted, and they will be screened nationwide on May 29, and major theaters have joined forces to build momentum for "Initial D", and the momentum has gradually caught up with "World of Warcraft".

Yes, "Initial D" does not have a big production like "World of Warcraft", and there is no king-level singer like Li Lin to join the promotion, but with the support of the theater chain, they are not weak in publicity momentum.

Even many fans also expressed their support for domestic movies on the Internet, although this remark was sprayed back as soon as it came out, there is no doubt that the theater chain used a water army.

They made it clear that they were going to suppress Wanda and Gold Medal theaters.

"Wanda and Gold are united."

Wang Youcai, the general manager of United Cinemas, sneered a few times, "But the two cinemas want to challenge our 35 cinema alliances? Wish for the moon! ”

"There aren't enough theaters, I'll see how your World of Warcraft ends."

In Huayi's company, the big and small kings stared at the news motionlessly, "If he doesn't set up a theater, I'm worried that Huayi will be impacted when "World of Warcraft" comes, now, hehe!" ”

"Keep an eye on them, don't let them turn over, contact other film production companies, and don't let those film companies give them films."

The king said murderously: "I want to be a brokerage company, a film company and a theater, both upstream and downstream, I want you to not be able to play any of them." ”

Inside DreamWorks, Jeffrey. Katzenberg looked at the form in his hand coldly, "In order to avoid "War of the Worlds" and "Batman Prequel 1: The Mystery of the Shadows", "World of Warcraft" was released on June 1st, it seems that Universal Movies is clearly pinching our DreamWorks as a soft persimmon!" ”

"I'll let you see now whose world is on Children's Day on June 1st."

"Madagascar will forge the glory of DreamWorks." (To be continued......)
