Chapter 309: Be Calm
"The consequences are so serious, why don't you take action?" Schneider asked.
Paramount even took out a detailed investigation report, and if he had this time, he didn't hurry up and find a way to act, what would he delay here.
"The Three Thousand Warriors of Sparta", stole the box office of your Paramount-produced movie, and stole your money?
This is really related to your interests, and you still don't take action?
Paramount's vice president sighed: "We also want to act, but the truth is, we can't do anything. ”
Schneider asked, "Why, you can launch a promotional channel to tell the audience that there are two Spartan movies, so that they can watch the movies a little more carefully." ”
The vice president asked rhetorically: "Don't we have publicity, the Internet is almost everywhere with news about this matter, and there is even a very hot stalk circulating, in this case, how do you want us to publicize?" ”
Schneider was stunned, not knowing what to say for a while.
Yes, this matter is already very hot on the Internet, and even when the media reports it, it will bring "The Three Thousand Warriors of Sparta", strictly speaking, the news that the names of the two movies are similar is everywhere, as long as people who are on the Internet can know it.
This is equivalent to the fact that the earth is round, which is common sense in theory, and basically everyone knows it, but there are still many people who firmly believe that the earth is flat.
You think something is common sense and should be known to everyone, but no matter how hard you try to promote it, there are still people who don't know it, and there are people who don't believe it.
Paramount has actually done everything that should have been done, and in the face of this situation, there is really nothing that can be done.
For many people, it's just a movie for entertainment, it's so complicated, there's no need to tell the difference, and it's not a big deal to watch the wrong movie.
After thinking about this, Schneider fell silent.
Like, there's really nothing you can do.
Warner's big production "Pacific Rim" went to great lengths to promote the difference between the two films, so that the audience must not watch the wrong movie.
And then there was a famous meme, why did you shoot the Atlantic Rim so badly.
If this gives him a similar stalk, who can stand it.
Why did you shoot the Spartan 3,000 warriors so badly?
Thinking of that terrible result, Schneider's body trembled, and the previous anger, the previous anger, and the previous depression all disappeared.
Forget it.
There's really no way, this is a piece of kraft candy, the more you think about it, the more disgusting it is, the best way is to let it go.
Schneider sighed and left helplessly.
The vice president of Paramount felt that it was not good to show weakness like this, and comforted: "Actually, we have communicated with the people in the theater chain, and I believe they will be a little more restrained." ”
"In addition, I can't tell the difference between the movie, in fact, there will be heat feedback to the Spartan 300 warriors, rounding it up, in fact, we don't suffer."
Schneider smiled politely, but he didn't really believe it.
He knows better than this vice president what virtues the theater chain has, especially those small theater chains, there is no discipline at all, Paramount will affect the three major theater chains at most, and it is impossible to affect all the theater chains.
Instead of counting on this, it is better to expect the popularity of "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" to pass, so that "Spartan Three Thousand Warriors", which relies on porcelain, will not be able to take advantage.
But the popularity of "Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" has passed, and he has also suffered.
After thinking about this truth, Schneider despaired.
There's really no way to take Xu Nan, a bastard.
A person doesn't even want a face, and he makes it clear that he wants to be a scoundrel, that is, he touches you, what can you do with him?
Unless the legislation prohibits touching porcelain, but this is not possible.
Actually, nothing.
Schneider began to find a way to comfort himself.
As the saying goes, if you can't resist, it's better to enjoy.
Think about it carefully, the word-of-mouth box office of "Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" has exploded, and the box office trend is unbeatable, and it is about to break 100 million.
According to the latest predictions of ticketing software, the total box office of the 300 Spartan Warriors has become 480 million.
Relying on this movie, he has become one of the great directors and has become a hot figure in the film industry in the United States.
In comparison, Xu Nan is really not enough to see.
A guy who can only shoot copycat movies, crazy to reduce low costs, shoddy production, and then touch porcelain, compared to him, is not a level of character at all.
He is radiant, but the other party can only sneak in the shadows and darkness, and make some scoundrel money by picking up the crumbs of the big director.
Thinking about it like this, Schneider suddenly felt much more comfortable.
Sure enough, sometimes people just have to look away, as long as your heart remains calm, some wind and rain in the outside world are nothing.
Schneider came to his senses, and his mood went to the next level.
He returned to the hotel and continued to work on the promotion of the film.
After a promotional event, the assistant suddenly came over and said, "Director, do you want to see this?" ”
Taking the phone, Schneider saw what was on it.
Xu Nan's Twitter account.
He raised his eyebrows and immediately gave himself some psychological construction.
It's nothing, it's just a villain scoundrel, there's no need to be emotional because of this guy, let alone angry.
After making sure he was ready, Schneider checked Xu Nan's Twitter content.
"Here I solemnly warn Paramount and director Schneider, don't think about rubbing the popularity of my movie "Three Thousand Warriors of Sparta", even if the two movies have similar names, but this is not a reason for you to rub my popularity, please keep a good face."
Schneider felt his body stir, and he took a long, deep breath.
Calm, calm.
This Chinese director is so shameless, there is no need to be angry, there is really no need to be angry.
The audience's eyes are bright and will definitely not be blinded.
Schneider glanced at Xu Nan's comment area and found that it was really similar to what he thought.
"I'm sorry, I always thought that politicians were the most shameless, but today I found out that you are even more shameless than politicians."
"Are you sure it's them rubbing your heat, not you rubbing their heat."
"Why can you say such outrageous things so frankly?"
"Brother, keep a low profile, otherwise you will be easily beaten."
"You're really a genius, I love your movies and I like your shamelessness even more."
Schneider smiled, and sure enough, the eyes of the masses were bright, they knew the facts, and they would not be blinded.
It made him feel a lot better.
It was at this time that Schneider suddenly noticed a comment.
"Xu Nan, please cheer up, don't continue to make good movies, all your talents are in copycat porcelain, you should continue to make this kind of movie, copycats can't lose you, just like the West can't lose Jerusalem."
