You made me a superstar

Chapter 558 Howard International Film Festival
"On China's side, I have already strived for the maximum policy. "King Kong Tiger" premiered in China. Except for Xingyang Cinemas, other theaters have given the best time slots. Marketing in the China market has also been completed. Ready to go, at the same time, I also wrote a few drafts, which will be released two days before the release of "King Kong Tiger". No matter what, these drafts will have a huge impact on Huaxing and "Spiderman"... ..."

"But I personally think that we still don't pay enough attention to the movie "Spider-Man". It's not enough to just limit the theater screenings. I have a set of data here, which shows that the attendance rate of "Spider-Man" is very high. At the same time, You can still see titles about "Spider-Man" on American Movie Network and some media, I personally think we should talk to these media, and completely block "Spider-Man"..."

"In addition, I personally have a plan to acquire the "Xingyang" theater chain. I want to go to the AMD theater chain to talk to them..."

"There is also the movie "Spiderman". Personally, I think this movie is similar to the idea of ​​"Lizardman". He is definitely plagiarizing our "Lizardman". Even if it is not plagiarism, we must find a way to sue him. Make him unable to be screened..."

"..."

In the office of the marketing department of the DV company.

Zhao Sicheng walked into the office with a stack of documents.

"Spider-Man" is in theaters for two days.

Zhao Sicheng has been busy for two days.

In the past two days, he returned to the United States from China for "Spider-Man", and continued to move up and down among the senior management of the DV company, explaining the influence of "Spider-Man" in China and the influence of "Spider-Man" in the United States. The influence that is about to appear, so that the top management of the DV company will pay attention to it, and try their best to suppress this movie.

Although Dila, the person in charge of the marketing department of the DV company, was very dissatisfied with the failure of Zhao Sicheng's "Righteous Man" project, Zhao Sicheng's series of work in China was indeed very good. After reading the materials of "Spider-Man", he naturally It is very important, chatted with Zhao Sicheng about some follow-up processing methods, and authorized Zhao Sicheng to connect with some marketing departments...

Half an hour later, Zhao Sicheng walked out of the office and walked towards the major theater buildings immediately.

a movie.

It's not that hard to be successful.

Excellent quality, suitable era, and overwhelming behind-the-scenes marketing...

But if you want to soar into the sky, become a memorable history in an era, and make countless people look up to you, the right time, place and people are indispensable.

"Spider-Man" is a big hit in China, and its premiere here in Laomei has filled the overseas Xingyang theaters. This can fully show that "Spider-Man" is suitable for this era.

But unfortunately...

It's not a Hollywood movie, it's not a European movie, it's not even an American movie.

Instead, it was born in the hands of a Chinese in this world.

This is original sin!

At least in Zhao Sicheng's view, this is the original sin, and it is a heinous thing!

..............................

June 23 at noon.

Zhou Yang made a cup of tea, stayed in the meeting room and watched the few theater licensing agreements signed by "Spider-Man".

After a whole morning of negotiations, only three theaters were finally won.

Ironically, the final reason for winning these three theaters was not because of the quality and prospects of "Spider-Man", but because of the negligence of the DV company, or because of their size. They were too small, and the DV company felt that they were dispensable, and their attitude was quite cold. In the end, the three bosses who had a little backbone did not sign the licensing agreement of "King Kong Tiger", but signed the movie "Spider-Man" instead.

The hot steam of the tea rises up.

Zhou Yang took a sip of the tea lightly, feeling the fragrance and gentleness in it, and closed his eyes enjoying it.

Before encountering a major incident, you must stay calm.

More haste less speed.

The situation is bad, but better than before!

Although the three theaters of SLP, DLS, and ASK are only small theaters, and the three movie theaters add up, there are only 130 movie theaters, but if "Spider-Man" is played in 700 movie theaters, the daily box office is expected to hit [-] million US dollars...

700 million dollars!
Although it is far from the "Spider-Man" in the original world, it is at least a good start.

"Dong dong dong."

"Mr. Zhou, American Film Network has removed our "Spider-Man", saying that there is a plagiarism controversy in this movie..."

"Major media outlets that had originally made an appointment began to take down posts and hotspots about "Spider-Man", and some areas of Twitter were even blocked..."

"Except for the free social media, you can still see netizens discussing "Spider-Man", the rest of the places, "Spider-Man" are all blocked!"

"On the contrary, the movie "King Kong" began to appear frequently on the Internet. When you click on the content and posts related to the movie, there are scenes of this movie everywhere..."

"We don't have any news at all..."

"The legal department of the DV company called me just now, saying that our "Spider-Man" is suspected of plagiarizing "Lizard-Man", and hopes that we will take it off the shelves in time or stop the infringement, otherwise we will be sued in court..."

"..."

The office door opened.

Xu Mei stepped on her high heels and hurried in, interrupting the peace in the office.

Zhou Yang put down his teacup, and after hearing Xu Mei's series of bad news, his expression was extremely solemn at first, but when he asked about the attendance rate of "Spider-Man", neither did the first round premiere of the other three theaters. When he was greatly affected, his solemn expression began to unfold.

"How is Meng Xu's surroundings doing?"

"..."

"How's the tea sales?"

"..."

"How about old man Liu's Chinese massage in Delaware?"

"..."

After Xu Mei heard Zhou Yang ask a series of questions that had nothing to do with the movie, she felt that Zhou Yang was in a hurry because the emperor was not in a hurry, but the eunuch was in a hurry: "President Zhou, why do you still have the heart to pay attention to this point? Blocked by Hollywood..."

"Didn't it be blocked before?"

"It's different from this time before. This time it's serious. We're going to die!"

"It was a joke before?"

"..."

Seeing that Zhou Yang was at this point, Xu Mei was not in a hurry, and even had the time to joke around with her, and didn't know whether to be angry or laugh for a while.

After Zhou Yang made Xu Mei a cup of tea, he took another breath of tea lightly.

"Take your time, see you in a few days..."

""King Kong Tiger" will be released in a few days, then how can we compete with "King Kong Tiger" at the box office? The influence of "King Kong Tiger" in China is also quite terrifying!"

"Sister Xu Mei, when I was working on the script of "Spider-Man", I actually checked the relevant laws of the United States. This "Spider-Man" has nothing to do with "Lizard-Man". The so-called prosecution is nothing more than intimidation We... Sister Xu Mei, if you are really worried, you can hire a lawyer and let the lawyer carefully check "Lizardman" and "Spiderman"... As for the release of "King Kong Tiger"..."

"what happened?"

"Let's show it when it's released."

Seeing Zhou Yang's attitude, the corners of Xu Mei's mouth trembled slightly, she nodded with disappointment on her face, and finally turned and left the office.

After Xu Mei left...

Zhou Yang hesitated for a moment, then picked up the phone and dialed the number of Delaware Governor Howard.

While exchanging greetings with Howard, he took out a film festival proposal from the drawer, with an extremely weird expression on his face.

When he said the content of the plan for the "First Howard International Film Festival", there was obviously a sense of anticipation on the other end of the phone.

But the tone of the speech was full of anxiety. He obviously wanted to hold a film festival, but he was afraid that Delaware would not be qualified and would be laughed at by other states. It was a typical feeling of being a watch and setting up a memorial archway.

"Actually, we don't necessarily need Hollywood filmmakers, we can cooperate with Chinese filmmakers..."

"Huaxia has released a lot of movies recently, the quality of which is quite high, and the industry is pretty good..."

"Berlin, Cannes, Venice, it's really not that big of a deal..."

"No matter how big a film festival is, it starts from a little bit..."

"..."

Zhou Yang resisted the feeling of nausea and vomiting, and kept drawing out various blueprints for Howard about the film festival.

At first, Howard could insert a few words, but in the end, Howard seemed to be caught in the blueprint and couldn't extricate himself. After Zhou Yang finished speaking, he even asked impatiently when the "Howard Film Festival" would be implemented.

After whetting Howard's appetite, Zhou Yang was silent for a long time, until the other party became anxious, and then he sighed slowly.

"First of all, "Spider-Man" has to live..."

"At least, it's going to be alive in Delaware..."

"It is the hope of the Howard Film Festival. I hope that the movie "Spider-Man" can come here in person and award the best movie to it!"

"..."

When Howard felt at a loss.

Zhou Yang began to talk about the various unfair experiences of "Spider-Man"...

After hearing this, Howard became furious instantly!

"Mr. Howard, I originally had a superhero peripheral plan. The superhero peripherals of Huaxia's "Spider-Man" are very popular. In fact, Delaware is also selling very well. I have another one next." The superhero plan, although the current box office of "Spider-Man" is very mediocre, but its attendance rate and its influence among movie fans..."

Zhou Yang found that he had entered the state, and the drawing became smoother and smoother. He started talking about comics from "Spider-Man", talking about theme parks, talking about how much benefit it can bring to Delaware, and even In order to make the big cake I drew more rounded, I began to talk about my experience step by step from "Mine Bottom"...

He only knew that Howard was silent for a long time after he finished speaking...

Just when Zhou Yang thought he was boasting too much, he heard Howard say something excitedly!

"Okay, okay, okay! Just do as you say, Howard International Film Festival, just do as you say!"

"..."
