According to the source of the films purchased by Dongbao provided by Jerry, Tang Ning found that they were buying the kind of films that were very professional and rich in connotation and meaning, which fully showed that Dongbao's procurement staff had a very high level of film cognition.

But it is precisely because they are such professionals that they made a fatal mistake, that is, they did not take into account the market problems, whether these award-winning films were made well? It's really good, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to win the award. But they forget that American audiences have been cultivated by Hollywood for many years to develop their current movie-watching concepts and aesthetic concepts, while Japanese audiences do not have this cultivation process, so the fact that films that can sell well in the United States does not mean that they can also sell well in Japan, but that those movies that are trash in the eyes of Hollywood critics are just right for today's Japanese audiences. This point was summed up by Tang Ning from the step-by-step development process of Chinese films.

Downing's idea was that since companies like Toho Kadokawa went to Hollywood to buy the Japanese distribution rights of the film at a high price with a check, then it was impossible to stop the Hollywood studios from selling to them, after all, no one could watch the money delivered to them not make money, so if they wanted to change the situation, they had to change the way.

Now that they have fallen into a misunderstanding in Toho Kadokawa, they should push them into a dead end before they can react. It is impossible for Jerry to get those studios not to sell their films to Toho Kadokawa, but Jerry can spend a little bit of money to get these studios to sell a batch of films to Toho Kadokawa, which is not a difficult thing, because the studios recommend the award-winning films and art films that Toho Kadokawa wants, and Toho Kadokawa can't find fault with them, because the quality and connotation of these films are indeed much higher than those commercial films shown by Jerry, and at this point, Toho Kadokawa must also admit as a filmmaker.

At the same time, Downing also asked Jerry to secretly send someone to double all the films they had acquired at a low price and sell them to Toho Kadokawa, before Jerry bought these films mainly because they were cheap, and he planned to have a suitable opportunity to release them again in the future, so he didn't buy much, and now since Toho Kadokawa wants it, then he won't take the opportunity to pit them, and once they don't manage well in the future, he can take back the film at a lower price at that time.

So in the following days, Toho Kadokawa and other Japanese manufacturers found that everything in Hollywood went much smoother overnight, and there was no longer the situation of hitting walls everywhere and being obstructed everywhere a few days ago, and they didn't even have to negotiate with the film companies themselves, and the film companies took the initiative to ask them to sell movies, and the quality was very good. Although they were puzzled for a while, it was always good that things were going well, so they soon bought a lot of films and returned to Japan, and at the same time spent all the money in their pockets.

But when they returned to Japan, they found that something seemed to be wrong, why they were showing American blockbusters, and they were all high-quality award-winning films, but the audience just didn't buy it, except that it was fresh for two days at the beginning, and then they all went to watch the junk movies that Jerry screened, which made them puzzled.

But I don't manage and don't understand, Toho Kadokawa's life is more difficult, before because of the impact of Hollywood movies caused the box office of the movies they produced plummeted, heavy losses, I thought that this time spent a lot of money to Hollywood to buy copyrights, can come back to life, but I didn't expect the box office is still bleak, for a while, the major film companies are beyond their means, Toho is even more loss crying can't cry.

Since the company is losing money, then the company's actors will naturally be cut and laid off, which is a catastrophe for these actors, at that time it was not as good as now, and now the actors don't make movies, they can go to make TV series, they can be hosts, they can be on variety shows, and they can also take a microphone to pretend to be a singer to go to the hole, but not at that time, not being able to act in movies is equivalent to losing their jobs, and these actors will be filming, if you ask him to do something else, he will not.

People engaged in art work are more passionate and easily excited, and they are already indignant when they are laid off, and they are flickered and pleaded by some leftists with ulterior motives, and these hot-blooded young people immediately think of the most traditional way, that is, to protest!

In order to expand the scale of the parade and improve the effect of the parade, these organizers began to go to major film companies to promote and agitate, perhaps because the living conditions of Japanese actors are generally not very good, or because these organizers are very eloquent, or some real filmmakers are saddened by the current Hollywood movies in Japan. All in all, the tandem was a great success, mobilizing hundreds of people to participate in the demonstration.

During the demonstrations, the Japanese actors played the banner of "protecting Japanese culture and resisting cultural invasion", I have to say that this reason is the most famous, which is more than "actors also have to eat!" "If we don't raise wages, we won't film", this statement is much more reasonable, which shows that the organizers are still a bit cultural.

The slogan is very high, and the momentum is even more spectacular, claiming that there are 8,000 cast and crew on strike, and the actual number is certainly not that much, but it is true that all the film companies in Tokyo went on strike that day, and no one went to work. In terms of popularity, the leader was Toshiro Mifune, the most popular star in Japan at that time (representative works are the famous "Rashomon", "Seven Samurai", "Red Beard", etc.), and the cheerleaders are all composed of popular actresses from Toho......

Toho Pictures is the largest film studio in Japan, and his status in Japan is equivalent to China's Shanghai Film Studio or Changchun Film Studio, and other studios such as Kadokawa are also one of the six monopoly manufacturers in Japan.

No government will let this kind of behavior disturb the social order go unchecked, especially since Toho's march was aimed at the cultural aggression of the United States, which was absolutely not allowed to happen during the period when Japan was under American rule. As a US military captain in charge of film review, Tang Ning naturally participated in the negotiations, but the two sides could not reach an agreement on the most critical issues at all, and Toho actors demanded that Hollywood films be banned and local films protected; But how dare the government agree to such conditions, so the negotiations reached an impasse.
