Chapter 555 The Pressure of Lord of the Rings
On May [-]th, Tang produced and invested one billion yuan, and the comedy science fiction film "Men in Black" directed by Barry Sonam started shooting.

On May [-]th, filming of the action movie "Mission: Impossible" with an investment of [-] million yuan starred by MGM's new signing Tom Cruise.

On May 25th, Tang made a big move that shocked the world of cinema.

On this day, Guo Liangsheng announced through social media that Peter the Great has come back for a new work after ten years, and that the epic fantasy film "Lord of the Rings", which Tang invested [-] million yuan, has officially started shooting!
This also caused the film investment record just created by Universal Pictures to be broken in just two months.

Tang's secrecy measures were really good, and the depth charge was not dropped until the day the filming started.

Some filmmakers realized that this "Lord of the Rings" seemed to have been approved by Tang last year.

It's just that there were five or six films that Tang approved at the same time, and the specific investment amount was not announced at that time.

So although it made Tang a little angry, it didn't cause too much noise.

But this time it was different.

"Tang and Universal have an official duel? Who will win, the old and the new aristocrats?"

"Is it a mantis trying to beat a chariot or is it evenly matched? Let me tell you what everyone doesn't know about the strength of the Morgan consortium."

"Chen Fan, the youngest and richest billionaire in history, how much wealth has he accumulated in just two or three years?"

"The confrontation between Eastern and Western films, will the legendary story of the prosperous Tang Dynasty come to an end?"

"..."

Although the appearance of "The Lord of the Rings" surprised the filmmakers, what excited them was the thoughts of Tang and Chen Fan of the prosperous Tang Dynasty behind it.

You must know that a month or two ago, Universal, which had just completed its formation, spent 3.5 million eagle dollars to start producing a new movie.

Many filmmakers and even business circles generally believe that this is the first step for the Morgan consortium to revive Hollywood movies in Eagle Country.

It was also the first step for the Morgan consortium to declare its dominance in the world's film industry.

In the past two months, the world has been paying attention to Universal Pictures, Kanada, "Avatar", and 3.5 million Eagles.

It can be said that this advertising effect is extremely efficient for Universal Pictures and the promotion of new movies.

But at this juncture, Tang began to make such a movie.

A movie with a small amount of investment than Universal Pictures.

This can't help but make people think about it.

At this time, many people subconsciously forget that when Tang announced the establishment of the project "The Lord of the Rings", Universal Pictures had not yet integrated it.

They also subconsciously forgot that the three major film and television companies of the prosperous Tang Dynasty had already produced many films with an investment of more than one billion yuan.

At this point, they were desperate to pit Tang against Universal.

No matter how good Tang's movie is, the boss behind it is a native of Longguo!
……

Just as the world was bustling, Chen Fan returned to Hangzhou at the end of May.

The crew of "Titanic" was filming other scenes these days. He took a leave of absence and came back to organize some work while participating in the recording of the first episode of "The Masked Singer" on Jiangnan TV.

In the end, after Mu Ci, Lin Zixuan, Zhang Ming and others discussed it, they unanimously decided to let Chen Fan take the hit.

This is also what Chen Fan explained before making the movie.

"In the next two days, the publicity departments of the three film and television companies launched all-out efforts to promote the upcoming "Thor"."

"The popularity of "The Lord of the Rings" is too high, coupled with the influence of the Morgan consortium in the West and the current form of public opinion, we need to reduce this popularity as soon as possible, so as not to affect the shooting of so many movies in the future!"

"..."

In the conference room, Chen Fan and Lin Zixuan, as well as Li Qiang and Guo Liangsheng who came from abroad, were discussing things.

Now that it is about to enter the middle of the year, Chen Fan is also busy making movies recently.

This time with free time, several people gathered together.

"Mr. Chen is right. Now the entertainment sector in Eagle Country is overwhelmingly promoting how we Tang will compete with Universal Pictures. The public opinion is almost pushing us against Universal and Morgan behind him."

"The dynamics of Universal are still unknown, but the release of our "Lord of the Rings" is more or less a slap in their face, and they really need to calm down."

"Mr. Guo is right. The Morgan consortium has an astonishing influence in Western countries. Now we have filmed more than a dozen films abroad at the same time. The personnel involved are very complicated. If Morgan gets involved at this time, it will definitely affect the crew."

"For example, "The Lord of the Rings", which is about to start filming, as far as I know, tens of thousands of practitioners are needed for this film, and many movie stars are related to other film and television companies. If Universal Pictures exerts pressure at this time , if someone from the crew wants to leave, it will really affect the work of the crew, and the loss will be difficult to estimate..."

"..."

Several people were silent for a moment.

If it was just Universal Pictures, even if it was the largest film and television company in the world, Chen Fan and the others wouldn't care too much about it.

But with the Morgan consortium behind it, the meaning is completely different.

"Okay, everyone, don't worry too much, let's make our movies well, and avoid other conflicts as much as possible. If it really happens, there is no need to be too nervous."

"It's the same as before, I'm not afraid of the crew being delayed, but you must control the quality of the movie."

"The reason why we can develop to the present in the prosperous Tang Dynasty is because of those excellent movies!"

"Next, let's work step by step. After "Thor" is released, the foundation of the Marvel universe will be completely finalized. By then, we will be able to overcome many difficulties in Shengtang!"

From the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the world, everything is so smooth.

Tang's announcement this time did not expect to arouse such huge speculation from the media.

The statement of fearing the world will not be chaotic was somewhat unexpected by Chen Fan, and it also cast a little shadow on Tang's next trend.

However, Chen Fan has never been a timid person. He dared to fight against half of the film and television industry in China. Naturally, he will not be too nervous this time.

Chen Fan couldn't help but think of Nangong Shiyue puffing her cheeks and cheering him up before he came.

There is no one behind Sheng Tang.

My father-in-law, Nangong Hao, is not only a super rich man in the Dragon Kingdom, but also more or less influential in the world.

Although he has almost no reputation in the film and television circle.

But the most important point in this circle is money.

And in this area, Chen Fan didn't need to rely on others.

……

In the last few days at the end of May, Tang Dynasty, MGM and Tang launched all promotional channels.

At the same time, the publicity funds were expanded to [-] million.

On June [-]st, the movie "Thor" related to the last of the four cornerstones of the Tang Dynasty superhero universe will be released worldwide!
Sheng Tang's big hand pushed such a piece of information to the whole world, overshadowing the previous two days' information about "The Lord of the Rings".

It also made many people return to the movie itself.

What type of superhero is Thor?
Many people began to look forward to it.
