China Entertainment: Let you shoot for charity and make tens of billions?

If this continues, I'm afraid we will be surpassed again.

Warner is now anxious.

Although they have a lot of IPs, they cannot withstand the opponent's fierce attack.

Distributed and promoted by Disney, produced by Marvel Studios.

In fact, they also imitated Warner Bros.' superhero development model at the beginning.

I want to come up with something new, create a reflection, let the audience ponder or something like that.

Later they discovered that the market had actually changed a long time ago, and that a classic movie like this would be enough to just reminisce about it.

But it can't always be like this.

After the release of Iron Man, Captain America, and The Hulk, the more artistic the films were, the more they failed.

For example, the Hulk filmed by Ang Lee was a complete flop.

Because it’s so artistic.

What everyone wants to see is just one word: awesome!

The kind that starts with punching you in the flesh.

The market is constantly changing, and this is something everyone knows.

But the speed of change is obviously faster than most people think.

Batman: The Dark Knight was very popular before.

Now it has become The Avengers, and there isn't much plot at the end, just fistfights, special effects fighting and so on.

Faced with such a market, the director of Warner Bros. seemed to be possessed and determined to surpass the previous film shot by Su Yi. Moreover, the various plot innovations were just following Su Yi's old path.

As a result, several films failed one after another. Even if Aquaman was successful later, it was just a drop in the bucket, and it was far from opening up the market or broadening the thinking.

On the contrary, when some veteran movie fans were asked about the newly-planned projects, they were somewhat indifferent.

Warner was anxious and wanted to contact Su Yi, but Su Yi was still at the awards ceremony at that time and had no time to reply.

This time, when he heard that it was at the Red Star House, he immediately came over to ask.

As soon as they heard that Su Yi had arrived at the University of Ghana, they already knew that Dai An was coming.

"Has it arrived yet? I guess so."

Su Yi chuckled, he knew that the other party must be unable to hold back.

After all, this time is very special.

However, you should know that Su Yi still does not have the right to shoot any works. At that time, in order to prevent Su Yi from shooting some works that were detrimental to their country in Zhouguo, CNN directly applied for regulations from the government. This is also a criticized regulation.

Since their founding, there has never been such a thing: not allowing a normal citizen of another country to shoot a movie, TV series or documentary in their country.

This may also mean that they are guilty, because no director has ever been their enemy before. They can just use some tricks and the other party may obey them. Moreover, even if they don't obey their management, they have many ways to make sure that no one pays attention to his work.

"It can be considered as a desperate attempt to find a cure. I came here to solve the problem with Feifei, not to help them with advice."

Su Yi shook his head slightly. He instinctively didn't want to get involved in these things, because things had priorities. For him, even if Warner Bros. lost tens of billions of dollars, it had nothing to do with him. And if it was in normal times, he could still help.

He was here to see Feifei and his children. He couldn't be delayed by these things any longer. Although Warner had done him a favor, he had to return the favor right away.

After hearing this, both mother and daughter were moved.

However, for Liu's mother, Red Star House also has some problems now, and their current animated film has been released. If they offend Warner Bros. at this time, it would obviously be irrational behavior.

The main battlefield of this movie is the market of Nenglong Country.

But the North American box office is also crucial.

After the last movie about black human rights was made, it went from a small production to a big box office hit. Liu's mother also tasted the sweetness and became more ambitious.

But they also knew that they couldn't just rely on this kind of movie. So they followed Su Yi's arrangement and filmed a very expensive animated film, which almost broke the bank.

Fortunately, the film was shot at the last minute, and after successful promotion, many people are looking forward to it, and Warner Bros. is one of the largest distributors. Without him, it would be difficult to make it in the North American and Western markets.

So at this time, if the other party has any request, it is better to agree to them. Even if it is to help Red Star House, this is the first time that Red Star House is close to life and death. After all, too much money was paid when investing in Zootopia. Liu's mother did not expect that shooting an animated film would burn so much money.

It's even more real than real people and those stars! And some places even require stars to dub.

But fortunately, everything turned out well.

Feifei raised her eyebrows at Su Yi, indicating that she could do nothing about it. Because this was her mother's business. Although most of the shares of Red Star House Company belonged to Liu Yifei, the person in charge was still Liu's mother.

"Okay, let's meet. Shall we meet here first or after dinner?"

When Liu's mother heard this, she became a little anxious, fearing that Su Yi would run away and Warner Brothers would be gone.

"Let's meet now. When I called just now, they were already at my doorstep! You have to know that these Chinese people have a procrastination problem. If they are so anxious, there must be something extraordinary going on."

Mother Liu shook her head helplessly, then called back. In less than 10 minutes, someone rang the doorbell of the villa. It was Diane, whom she had not seen for many years. "My old friend! I finally see you again. I am really happy to see you, because seeing you is like seeing hope for me."

When I first met Diane, the president of the film department of Warner Bros. Pictures Group, he was still a little proud and high-spirited.

Unexpectedly, after so many years, he seemed a little depressed, but when he saw Su Yi again, he was still very happy. He came up and gave Liu Yifei a warm hug, and under Su Yi's eyes, he just waved to Liu Yifei. He looked quite gentlemanly.

But he didn't even take a second look. After being invited into the house by Su Yi, he sat in his seat a little stiffly. He only felt relieved when he saw Su Yi's friendly smile.

"Damn it, I may look really miserable now, it's all my fault for choosing the wrong project!"

Diane slowly recounted her experiences over the years.

In fact, he was mainly responsible for the film adaptations related to DC comics. Of course, he was also responsible for other projects. It’s just that in those two years, he felt that super movie projects were more profitable, so Diane reported to her boss about these movies.

But what was unexpected was that in less than a few years, everyone had begun to suffer from visual fatigue, and even the old audiences in the past were somewhat fed up with the routine.

So apart from the Harry Potter series, Warner Bros.' movies across the board began to decline and were surpassed little by little by Marvel.

After Disney successfully operated several Marvel movies, it used the mobilization ability of old fans to slowly occupy the superhero movie box office.

There are only two types of superhero movies now, one is Marvel and the other is others. This makes Warner Bros. quite frustrated. They don't want to dominate the market in every industry, but at least they don't want to be defeated in the field they are familiar with, which will make them feel frustrated.

Their movies are still very popular now, but they just remove the superhero content.

To be honest, Marvel has already developed superhero movies to the extreme, because they have a multiverse that can be filmed continuously, although Warner Bros. can also do so, but they are a little worse in terms of screenwriting and special effects.

Diane was also very unlucky. After experiencing loss-making company business, she was soon arrested on charges of poor management and became a mediocre character. Although the money she earned every day was enough to spend, it was nothing compared to before.

"You don't have to be so sad. It actually has nothing to do with you. It's just that the market is changing, and it's changing very quickly. Even if I shoot another movie now, I may not be able to make that much money."

Su Yi consoled him, and it turned out that his consolation was effective. After all, he is now the world's top-grossing director. Even if such a person says something that the public disagrees with, it will make many people think for a long time. This is the celebrity effect.

"Director Su Yi! I know you are trying to comfort me, but it is indeed so miserable right now. I know you have set up a TV platform in Longguo and will not compete with us for the box office, but without you filming movies, the world box office is really boring."

Think about 13 Years a Slave. It feels like a lifetime ago when we compare that time to now.

He looked at Su Yi with some excitement. The boss obviously had high hopes for him by sending him here this time.

"Let's eat and talk."

Liu Yifei saw that they had something serious to discuss, and often winked at her mother, but Liu's mother didn't want to leave, wanting to hear what was going on. Seeing that Su Yi didn't stop her, Dai An didn't stop her either.

"Don't think I'm idle now. It seems like I have nothing to do, but I can't shoot any works in North America. This is a ban in your country. I'm honored to be the first one, and I hope I'll be the last one..."

Su Yi waved his hands helplessly, as he had a lot of skills that he couldn't use.

But he also felt that there was no way to avoid this matter. Whatever you do in here, you must abide by the laws and regulations, otherwise it will be easy for others to deal with you once they get in.

In fact, these foreigners can all recognize Su Yi. After all, the works he shot before were very lethal. Both at home and abroad, there are still many people searching for Su Yi's works.

It is precisely because of this reputation that the Star Flag Country issued this shocking order.

And the president of the Star Flag Country has already changed, but they still keep tacit agreement on this aspect. Aren't you the mouthpiece and teeth of the opposing system? Then you just need to keep your mouth closed, isn't that enough!
I have to say that some foreigners’ ideas are simply fantastic.

"Okay Diane, let's get straight to the point. I'm reuniting with my family today and have a lot of things to do! Of course, the date for the shoot can be set then--"

Su Yi replied softly. If he had brought up the topic, it would probably have stopped right away.

"I know you are facing difficulties now, but you have to know that shooting a movie in a short period of time, even if it has a box office of billions of dollars, will not help the overall situation. You still won't be able to shoot the next step. Some things cannot be taught. You will learn them slowly."

In fact, everyone understands that even if Su Yi is found in a short time, what can be done? Isn't it just watching Marvel Comics moving closer to TV series and movies?

"This time, we at Warner Bros. want to fully cooperate with Red Star House and Poetry and Painting Platform! We hope that I can share the copyright and then develop some IPs to the extreme. Of course, we can sign a profit-sharing agreement to finalize the detailed ratio."

Dai An's words made Su Yi's heart beat faster!

You know, Warner Pictures has tried many IPs. Although the poetic and picturesque platform only shoots TV series and not movies now, it is also a benefit to the farmers' market. The only exchange is storage resources.

"Now the Shiqinghuayi platform also has a lot of copyrights. I really hope that we can talk more about copyrights instead of asking me to shoot some movies. For example, in the future we can open some amusement parks in some relatively cheap places, just like Disneyland. I know this is a longer process, but I think this is the premise of our cooperation. This way, the world can see that we are still close."

After hearing Su Yi's words, Dell suddenly opened his eyes wide. This was a good suggestion.

But joint development?
This is something that Warner Bros. has always been taboo about, although it is something that cannot be changed.

He had rarely sold or shared copyrights before because of the Spider-Man incident. Spider-Man at the time was bought by Sony, and all 123 Spider-Man films were shot, produced and released by Sony.

If Sony's Genki Building hadn't closed down companies in many industries, it would probably not have recovered by now.

Now they have always been interested in building an amusement park!

Because Disney's IP is similar to theirs, if they also use these IPs to build some amusement parks, especially in the mainland, it will be difficult to get a ticket.

However, construction takes time. One or two years may shorten the time, but if we don't do it, the monthly target will not be achieved. Dai An looked at Su Yi with some surprise. He didn't expect the other party to bring up this matter. But if the other party is Su Yi, I believe the boss should agree!
Build an amusement park! They have so many IPs, and it is very suitable.

Disney is nothing in comparison!
It seems that the two companies hurt each other a lot.

Diane gnashed her teeth when she mentioned him. (End of this chapter)
