…

The crew of "Lover's First Kiss".

Xu Kai's character brings Sophie March's character to his mansion.

This is a place where wealthy people from China often come to the gold house to hide their Jiaojiao.

The two of them have a tryst here, sit and love, bathe, and play......

Today's scene, because there is a lot of content, and it needs to be filmed exquisitely and intentionally, so it takes a long time.

The good thing is that -

Through this time of getting along, Sophie March has completely fallen in love with Xu Kai, who can always surprise her and is so good that she has nothing to say in every way.

is like the character played by Sophie March, although she says that she will not fall in love with a Chinese, her body is much more honest than her mouth.

Sophie March is now inseparable from the role she plays, and it can also be said that the role she plays is her, she is the romantic girl who said that she didn't love the male protagonist in her heart.

It is precisely because Sophie March is in the most ideal state to interpret this role that the filming of "Lover's First Kiss" is getting smoother and smoother, even if it is filming trysts, sitting love, bathing, and playing, which particularly require acting skills, Sophie March can always pass it over and over again.

And Xu Kai's remaining one will not waste everyone's precious time.

"Click!"

After filming the last bed scene, Xu Kai gently took the bath towel and put it on Sophie March, lest Sophie March accidentally walk away.

After doing this, Xu Kai walked towards Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau, who had been waiting for him for a long time......

What Xu Kai didn't see was that Sophie March's eyes looking at his back were full of watery tenderness......

……

After inviting Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau to his RV, Xu Kai said apologetically, "I'm sorry Mr. Kevin, Mr. Jon, you have waited for me for so long." ”

Kevin Feige hurriedly said, "It's okay, Mr. Xu, we came uninvited. ”

Xu Kai asked Si Peizhi to serve Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau a cup of coffee, and after Si Peizhi made Xu Kai another pot of tea, Xu Kai took the initiative to ask, "I don't know what the two of you are looking for me?" ”

"Hmmm......"

Kevin Feige pondered for a moment, and then said bluntly: "Mr. Xu, I don't know if you can let us buy back the copyright of Iron Man?" ”

When Xu Kai heard this, he quietly poured himself a cup of tea, and then said slowly: "Please forgive me, even if I am willing to sell the copyright of Iron Man back to you Marvel, will you Marvel have the money to make "Iron Man"?" ”

"This ......"

Unlike the previous Marvel that bought back the copyrights of Marvel superheroes such as Iron Man and Captain America before filming "Iron Man", in this life Marvel only has the copyrights of Marvel superheroes such as Thor and Guardians of the Galaxy that are slightly less popular.

As a result, even if Marvel wants to use the copyright of the superhero characters owned by its company as collateral to make "Iron Man" like in the previous life, it is very difficult.

Therefore, hearing Xu Kai reveal their old secrets so bluntly, Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau were suddenly embarrassed.

Seeing this, Xu Kai spread his hands with a smile and said: "Look, even if I am willing to sell the copyright of Iron Man back to you Marvel, you Marvel can't shoot it, what's the use, not to mention that I won't sell the copyright of Iron Man back to you Marvel." ”

Hearing that Xu Kai was unwilling to sell the rights to Iron Man, Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau were both disappointed and secretly relieved.

As Xu Kai said, if Marvel buys back the rights to Iron Man, they don't have the money to make Iron Man into a movie, in that case, they have to lobby others everywhere to invest money in the movie "Iron Man".

Given Iron Man's current popularity, this is obviously not easy.

Instead of this, they Marvel might as well find someone to invest money to shoot Thor or Guardians of the Galaxy or some other Marvel superhero.

After glancing at each other, Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau, who were unwilling to humiliate themselves in front of Xu Kai, a Chinese, got up at the same time and said, "That's bothering you, Mr. Xu." ”

No, Xu Kai smiled and said, "Don't be busy leaving, although I won't sell the copyright of Iron Man back to you Marvel, I didn't say that we can't cooperate in other ways." ”

“？”

Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau were stunned, they were puzzled, what else did Xu Kai want to cooperate with them?

Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau sat back down, and then Kevin Feige asked, "Mr. Xu, what do you want to cooperate with our Marvel?" ”

"There are so many possibilities."

Xu Kai said with a smile: "For example, I can buy your Marvel, for example, we can film "Iron Man" together, for example, Mr. Jon can come over and shoot "Iron Man" for me, I bought the copyright of these Marvel superheroes just to develop them, so as long as it is beneficial to the development of these Marvel superhero IPs, we can talk about anything." ”

After knowing what Xu Kai meant, Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau, who had lost hope for this negotiation, suddenly lit up!

- If according to what Xu Kai said, then they Marvel really have a lot of directions to discuss with Xu Kai.

As the president of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige obviously still wants to give it a go, so after Xu Kai gave him so many options, after even thinking about it, he resolutely chose to co-invest in the movie "Iron Man" with Xu Kai.

For not being able to buy Marvel, although Xu Kai is very regretful, he is not reluctant at all.

- Xu Kai doesn't know that as long as he insists, as long as he is willing to pay more money, he will definitely be able to let Marvel, which is now on the verge of bankruptcy, sell all the superhero copyrights in their hands to him.

But Xu Kai couldn't do that.

No way, who made himself Chinese, and this is a beautiful country dominated by whites.

Some people may not be able to figure it out, what's wrong with the Chinese, can't the Chinese buy all the Marvel superheroes, can't they make them into movies?

Yes.

But the problem is that this may cause a boycott from the North American box office, the largest box office market for Marvel superhero movies.

In that case, it may appear that Xu Kai has the copyright of these Marvel superheroes, and he can't monetize them, at least not let them generate the greatest fame and fortune.

Therefore, instead of turning the copyrights of these Marvel superheroes into a pile of waste paper, it is better to cooperate with Marvel to jointly develop the Marvel Universe and make money together.

Moreover, Xu Kai now has the copyrights of Marvel superhero characters such as Iron Man, Hulk, Captain Beautiful, Black Widow, Deadpool, Iron Fist, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Punisher, Hulk, Humanoid, Vampire Morbius, etc., and Marvel will definitely not be able to get around itself if it wants to engage in the Marvel Universe.

And as long as Xu Kai can put his hand into the Marvel Universe, he can grab a steady stream of fame and fortune from it.

But—

At present, Xu Kai has both the copyrights of many Marvel superhero characters and money, the key is Xu Kai's foresight, and the key is that Marvel is in its weakest period, how can Xu Kai not take the opportunity to get more benefits from Marvel?

So Xu Kai said to Kevin Feige: "Since you Marvel have no money now, I am willing to buy a few more permanent copyrights of superheroes from Marvel, so that you can have the money to shoot "Iron Man" with me." ”

When Kevin Feige heard this, he said a little nervously: "We won't sell Thor, Hawkeye and Guardians of the Galaxy, by the way, we won't sell Doctor Strange either." ”

Kevin Feige is not stupid, how could he not know that if they sell the rights of Marvel superheroes such as Thor, Hawkeye, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Doctor Strange to Xu Kai, Xu Kai can form the Marvel Universe by himself, and there is no need to cooperate with them Marvel at all.

Xu Kai smiled and said, "Don't worry, I sincerely cooperate with your Marvel, so I will not tear down the foundation of your Marvel." ”

Hearing Xu Kai say this, Kevin Feiqi was relieved, and then asked, "Then what do you want?" ”

Xu Kai looked at Kevin Feige and said with a smile: "I want the all-round permanent adaptation rights of Shang-Chi and all the characters related to Shang-Chi, this is not embarrassing to you, right?" ”

The answer given by Xu Kai was both unexpected and reasonable for Kevin Feige and Jon Favreau.

- Xu Kai is a Chinese, of course he has to buy the Chinese superhero Shangqi, which is understandable.

And after confirming that Xu Kai wanted to buy Shangqi, Kevin Feige immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with other superheroes, Shangqi's popularity is not high, not to mention, he is still a Chinese hero, and his value is naturally greatly reduced, so it is indispensable to sell it to Xu Kai.

But even so, Kevin Feige still showed the cunning side of the businessman, he pretended to frown and said, "Shang-Chi, this is not easy to do......"

Xu Kai saw it and said lightly: "Mr. Kevin, since we got in touch, I have always maintained the sincerity of cooperation, if you don't want to mess up your Marvel is the only chance to turn over, it's best to show the sincerity of cooperating with me." ”

Hearing Xu Kai's words, Kevin Feige looked embarrassed, and he hurriedly made up for it: "Mr. Xu, you misunderstood, I said that it is not easy to do, referring to the fact that the all-round perpetual copyright of Shangqi and its related characters is not worth too much money, and it is not enough for us Marvel to invest in "Iron Man", you see, can you still buy the copyright of a few more superheroes?" ”

Xu Kai bought Shangqi, of course, in order to shoot Shangqi for himself, and even to play Shangqi himself, using Shangqi, a Chinese superhero, to further open up the European and American markets, and at the same time, he also wanted to use Shangqi to subvert the image of Chinese in the eyes of Europeans and Americans.

- In the last life, although Hollywood tried its best to shoot "Shang-Chi and the Ten Rings", they didn't understand the Chinese at all, and they found two Chinese who were so ugly and unknown in China to play the heroes and heroines in "Shang-Chi and the Ten Rings", which didn't mean to disgust Chinese audiences.

There is also the role of Shang-Chi's father.

Although the Hollywood gang also changed Zheng Zu, who was hated by the Chinese, to Wenwu, its adaptation was still unacceptable to the Chinese - its setting was not right, and the son killing his father was not in line with the feelings of the Chinese.

Xu Kai is ready to wait for himself to buy Shangqi, completely subvert the role of Shangqi's father, and make a major change to Shangqi.

In a word, let a group of foreigners shoot Chinese superheroes, even if they want to lick the Chinese audience, they won't lick it, and if they want the Chinese audience to like Shang-Chi, the Chinese themselves have to shoot "Shang-Chi".

Some people may ask, will it be inconsistent with the original book and cause dissatisfaction among fans of the original work if it is changed to be too noble and noble?

Fart.

Do you think Iron Man hasn't changed?

The "Iron Man" in the original setting of Marvel Comics is actually not as "perfect" as the movie version of Iron Man that the audience saw later, and more of the plot of Iron Man at that time was full of restrictive plots, and Iron Man was not a perfect label blessing such as "rich and handsome".

When Marvel decided to use Iron Man as their last movie, they also carried out a "facelift" character modification for Iron Man at the same time, which simply means that Iron Man's original good elemental attributes are retained and strengthened, and all bad elemental settings are eliminated.

It is precisely because of that operation that the movie version of Iron Man has become the "perfect" image that the audience saw later!

Therefore, since Marvel can change Iron Man, Xu Kai will definitely be able to change Shangqi, make Shangqi a perfect superhero like Iron Man, and then use Shangqi to complete cultural output.

Of course, Xu Kai can't tell the people of Marvel about his plans, then they will definitely raise the price of noble spirits.

Seeing that all the copyrights of Shang-Chi and the characters related to Shang-Chi were easily obtained, and the people of Marvel still wanted to sell their own copyrights, Xu Kai thought about it, and bought all the copyrights of the characters related to Marvel superhero characters such as Iron Man, Hulk, Captain Beautiful, Black Widow, Deadpool, Iron Fist, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Punisher, She-Hulk, humanoid, vampire Morbius and other Marvel superhero characters, so that he could make independent movies of these superheroes in the future.

In addition, Xu Kai bought the permanent copyright of an independent Marvel superhero - Captain Marvel.

Xu Kai's purchase of Captain Marvel is actually just a long-term idle move.

In the future, Marvel will enter the fourth phase, and many old characters like Iron Man, Black Widow, and Captain will retire forever, so it is bound that a younger group of superheroes will come forward and take charge of themselves.

At that stage, without Marvel superheroes such as Iron Man, Black Widow, and Captain, Xu Kai will definitely have a weakened voice, so he has to hold a few trump cards that can balance others.

And the main core of the new force in future Marvel movies will definitely be Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Captain Marvel and other Marvel superheroes.

Spider-Man is Sony's baby golden rooster, and Sony will definitely not sell it.

Marvel also said that it would not sell Doctor Strange.

Xu Kai, who originally had the copyright of the Black Panther, grabbed the copyright of Captain Marvel, even if Marvel entered the later stage, he would definitely not be able to get rid of Xu Kai's control.

And Marvel has sold the all-round forever rights of so many characters, and finally has the money to co-make the "Iron Man" movie with Xu Kai.

After negotiation between the two parties, Marvel paid 80 million beautiful gold, and the artist paid 70 million beautiful gold plus the right to use Iron Man, and the two sides each accounted for 50% of the shares of the producer of "Iron Man" to jointly produce "Iron Man".

In addition, through friendly negotiations, the two sides decided that Kevin Feige will be the producer of "Iron Man", Xu Kai will be the producer of "Iron Man", and Jon Favreau will be the director of "Iron Man".

For this cooperation, Marvel and Xu Kai are actually very satisfied, and neither side is worried that the other party will throw off themselves and go it alone.

Xu Kai won't say much here, most of the main characters of the Avengers (and they are all popular characters) are held in Xu Kai's hands, and he is not afraid of Marvel's people playing tricks with him.

On Marvel's side, it also has a large number of Marvel superhero characters, and Marvel also has villains in Marvel, such as Thanos, Ultron, Evil God Loki, etc., and the copyrights of groups such as S.H.I.E.L.D., HYDRA are also in Marvel's hands, so Marvel is not afraid that Xu Kaihui will dump Marvel and build the Marvel universe by itself.

In fact, this is an ideal state of cooperation in which the two sides can cooperate sincerely and restrain each other.

In a nutshell.

Because of Xu Kai's abundant financial support, as well as the operation and planning of Marvel, the local snake, in late November, "Iron Man" cooperated by Artisan and Marvel was officially launched......
