Conrad stated that the evidence that Walker had ordered him to bribe the film review departments of all continents in the Beacon Country could be released to the public, and the condition was that Disney could not sue him, and at the same time, Disney would give him 1 million US dollars and guarantee his safety.

As soon as Herman heard that he didn't make up his own mind, he called Zhang Xiao directly and reported the matter.

When Zhang Xiao heard about it, he agreed without hesitation, and said that the 1 million US dollars can be given to Conrad from the box office profits of "Zhu Xian 000".

So Herman invited Conrad to have lunch. After learning that Columbia Pictures was going to hold a press conference, Herman immediately brought him to the scene.

Walker looked at the two and said coldly: "Herman, do you want Conrad to slander me? How much benefit did you give Conrad?"

Hellman was not angry when he asked him this, but said with a smile: "After receiving your order, Mr. Conrad brought out 1 million US dollars from your company's finances to bribe six officials."

"After the incident in Mississippi broke out, you let Mr. Conrad take the blame for your own safety, and you also threatened him that he could not tell the matter, otherwise it would be detrimental to his family and himself."

"Mr. Walker, if it was you, would you be able to accept it?"

At this time, Connard walked up to Herman, took out his mobile phone, turned on one of the audio files, and said to the reporters at the scene: "Friends from the press, this is the recording when Walker gave me instructions. Please listen carefully."

When the reporters heard this, their eyes lit up, their ears pricked up, and their microphones stretched out.

"Conrad, you are now spending 1 million dollars in the company's finances to go to various continents to make connections. You must not allow "Zhu Xian 000" to be re-released on all continents."

"Understood, Mr. Walkerbar."

···
When Walkerba finished listening to the recording, he immediately shouted: "This... this is fake, the audio was synthesized by people from Disney, and then released by Conrad. In this way, I have grown ten mouths I can't tell."

However, at this time, Connard took out a receipt from his arms, and said to the reporters at the scene: "Reporters, this is the withdrawal slip that Mr. Walker gave me. Please take a good picture of it. Be clear."

A reporter next to him immediately adjusted his camera, aimed at the cash withdrawal slip, and took a picture of everything on it.

According to the above content, it is indeed 1 million US dollars, and there are Walker's autograph and the official seal of Columbia Film Company on it.

Walker yelled: "That's also fake. The 1 million US dollars is for the construction of Huaguo Cinemas, not for bribing the heads of film and television departments in various states."

Conrad retorted indifferently: "Walkerba, stop acting. I know better than anyone what kind of person you are. I will accept any call you made or any order you gave me before. There are recordings, including what you said to me this morning, I have also recorded them."

"Since it's all done like this, let's listen together and see if you, Walker, are threatening me."

After speaking, Connard played the recording of the conversation between the two in the morning.

···
"Conrad, after you leave the company, you'd better control your mouth, otherwise you and your family will be very miserable, do you hear me clearly?"

"Listen clearly."

When the recording was released, all the reporters at the scene were in an uproar.

Obviously, Walker is threatening him with the lives of Conrad's entire family, and he is not allowed to betray himself and Columbia Pictures.

It's just a pity that Walker didn't think that Conrad was not afraid at all, but turned around and hooked up with Disney.

However, in the face of overwhelming evidence, Walker still refused to admit death, and shouted: "All of this is a forgery. Herman, this is all a conspiracy by you Disney. You bought Conrad and intentionally Come to frame me."

Herman smiled and said: "I admit that we did give Mr. Conrad $1 million and promised to protect the safety of him and his family, but we didn't falsify anything, we just asked him to tell the truth to the public. .”

Hearing what Herman said, Walker said angrily: "Did you hear that? Did everyone hear it? Herman just admitted that Conrad has been bought by Disney, so his words cannot be believed."

Herman glanced at the media reporters present, and said to Walker: "Mr. Walker, first of all, I want to correct you on one thing. It's not that Disney bought Conrad, but Mr. Zhang in his own name. For 1 million US dollars, I bought the evidence that you spent money to prevent the movie "Zhu Xian 000" from being re-released on all continents."

"Mr. Zhang is thousands of miles away in Huaguo, and it is impossible for us to know in advance that Mr. Conrad is going to be your scapegoat. So there is no time to create the so-called audio perjury in your mouth."

"Forget it, it's useless for me to explain so much to you, you'd better explain to the judge yourself."

Hearing Herman's words, a trace of panic flashed in Walker's eyes, and he asked, "What do you mean?"

Herman said coldly: "As the distributor of the movie "Zhu Xian 1", we, Disney Films, have sued Columbia Pictures to court."

"Mr. Zhang, the investor of this movie, has appointed a lawyer to take you, the CEO of Columbia Pictures, to court. As long as there are no accidents, the two cases should be merged into one."

"Mr. Walker, if you lose, your CEO will probably go in and stay for a while like his predecessor."

"However, you are quite lucky. You didn't bring any major losses to our movie "Zhu Xian 1", so you can come out after half a year at most."

However, Walker still insisted: "This is fake, you can't win."

"I hope." Herman said with a smile: "By the way, Mr. Conrad is a talent, and he will become a middle-level leader of our Disney film company in the future. If he and his family are safe in the future, If there is a problem, then I think the cable group behind Columbia may be in very big trouble."

"Mr. Walker, I hope you can pass my words on to the Suoli Group. I wish you good luck. Goodbye."

After speaking, Herman led everyone away from the press conference, leaving only chicken feathers on the ground.

Reporters rushed up one after another, scrambling to interview Walker.

However, at this time, Walker's face was livid, and he was about to drip water. Under the protection of the bodyguard, he left the press conference without answering any questions.

After the press conference of Columbia Pictures was posted on the Internet, the already lively situation became even more lively.

"Scandal, this is a huge scandal."

"Columbia Films is the most shameless and despicable entertainment company in the world. There is no one. The appraisal is complete."

"Conrad said very clearly in the online video that Columbia Pictures bribed six officials in total, so I really want to know, who are the other five officials?"

"It's just a movie that has been screened before, and it's just re-released. Is it necessary to make such a big fuss?"

"Columbia Films simply wanted to suppress Zhu Xian, but it's a pity that their tactics were not too secretive and exposed."

"Compared to the despicable and shameless Columbia Pictures, those officials in the film review department should be spurned."

"···"

Many movie fans have gathered on the homepage of the Disney film company, asking them to announce the other five officials who took bribes.

The Disney company did not announce it, but notified the identities of the five officials to all continents, and let them handle it themselves. This can be regarded as a good sale to the five states.

The worst thing is the leaked Mississippi State, the office building where the state government and the film review department are located, and has now become the target of attacks by movie fans.

The governor of Mississippi ordered the arrest of Cecil, the person in charge of accepting bribes, and personally came out to apologize to tens of thousands of movie fans, but unfortunately the effect was very small.

In the end, there was really no other way, and the governor of Mississippi had no choice but to ask Zhang Xiao.

Zhang Xiao made a favor, and said a word for Mississippi on his Twitter: "My favorite movie fans and friends, there is such a scandal in Mississippi's film review department, it still happened in "Zhu Xian 1" ", I feel extremely angry about it."

"But I still want to ask you to calm down, because there is no absolutely clean ZF in the world. There will always be some moths lurking in it to cause damage, which is determined by the inferiority of human beings."

"Mississippi is a very beautiful place, and we can't negate the efforts of state officials just because we see a borer, it's very unfair to them."

""Zhu Xian" is a very good movie. I hope it can bring joy to everyone instead of becoming a source of confusion."

"Now the movie pre-sale channel in Mississippi has opened, and everyone is welcome to come into the theater to watch the two parts of Zhu Xian."

"I believe that these two films will not disappoint everyone."

After Zhang Xiao's post was posted, the effect was very remarkable.

Those rioting movie fans returned home one after another, which made the Governor of Mississippi very happy, and kept thanking Zhang Xiao on the phone.

By June 6th, the global pre-sale box office of "Zhu Xian 15" has exceeded the 1 billion US dollar mark, and the results are better than any blockbuster film this year.

In the early morning of June 6, the movie was screened for the second time around the world.

"A movie was screened for the second time, and it grossed nearly 15 billion US dollars in the first week. Xiao Shen once again made history."

"Xiao Shen, the No.1 movie in the world, deserves it."

"···"

Not only netizens and movie fans, but also filmmakers in the entertainment industry have expressed their views on Twitter.

Cameron, the world's number one director, wrote on his Twitter: "I've been following since the day Mr Zhang decided to re-screen "Zhu Xian 1", and now the film has achieved unprecedented success, It made me so happy and uplifted that I was thinking about bringing that big ship and Avatar to theaters for reruns as well."

Director Spielberg wrote on his Twitter: "This is good news for the film industry. Mr. Zhang has created a miracle in the box office of the world's movies and opened another channel for excellent movies. The most important thing is "Zhu Xian 1." ", the directors have worked hard to improve the quality of the film, because only classic films have the opportunity to have a second screening."

Zhang Yimou, a well-known domestic director, wrote: "The success of the re-release of "Zhu Xian 1" is to prove to all filmmakers all over the world that classic movies will never end."

···
Inside Zhang Xiao's villa in Yuzhou.

Chen Daoming, Liang Jiahui, Gu Yuege, Guan Gu, Gao Weiguang, Zhao Xiaoying, Reba, Xia Wanxin, Su Xiaoyu and other main actors of "Zhu Xian 2" gathered together.

Zhang Xiao personally cooks and cooks twelve dishes, and everyone who eats them applauds non-stop.

After three rounds of wine and delicious food, Zhang Xiao said, "The box office of the re-screening of "Zhu Xian 1" has exceeded 16 billion US dollars. To be honest, this result has greatly exceeded my expectations."

"I used to think that at most we could get a box office of 10 billion US dollars, but what I didn't expect was that those Hollywood giants helped us a lot by accident, especially the bribery incident by Columbia Pictures. , it can be regarded as a sensational publicity for our movie."

"I estimate that the box office of "Zhu Xian 1" is at most 20 billion U.S. dollars, but the box office potential of the second part is very large, so we must do a good job in the next global publicity, and all of you present are the ones who will promote this time. The main force."

Liang Jiahui asked: "Zhang Xiao, how much do you think the box office of "Zhu Xian 2" will be?"

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Xiao said with a smile, "70 billion US dollars."

"Wow!"

Everyone couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Gu Yuege said: "Brother Xiao, can it really reach the total box office of 70 billion US dollars?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "The reason why I want to rescreen "Zhu Xian 1" is mainly to arouse those fans' doubts about the movie and stimulate them to watch "Zhu Xian 2". After all, it has been a year since the first film. Too much, enough to make them forget a lot of things."

"Judging from the current situation, my plan is successful. At least 4 million people around the world have entered the theaters. These people will definitely watch "Zhu Xian II", plus those fans who have been waiting. I I think it is not so difficult to reach the box office of 70 billion."
