Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 426 DC and Marvel ([-])
When the bookstore sees Owen's dropped comic book, she thinks about superheroes.When she first came here, it was difficult for special effects to support superheroes appearing handsome and brave on the big screen.But it is different now. With the gradual development of special effects technology, it is enough for the big screen to accept more special effects.

The most important thing is that the audience loves the special effects!

Think about the old "Jurassic Park", how much do people love the dinosaurs that come alive on the screen?Think about the giant ship that sank under the iceberg. If there were no special effects, would there be such a thrilling scene?
Therefore, even though Lila forgot the existence of superheroes because of her busy work at first, the pile of comic books that Owen dropped in front of her still reminded and helped her open the door to that new world.

The superheroes of the previous life first worked independently, using their own charm to conquer the audience, and then joined hands to create a huge alliance.For example, Marvel's Avengers and DC's Justice League are both watching movies. Of course, if you spend the same money, you hope to see more heroes appearing in front of you.When the first part of "The Avengers" appeared, I don't know how many people were shocked by the huge sky carrier flying in the sky, and how many people cheered because of the joint efforts of the heroes.

With the support of special effects technology, superheroes who were originally only able to show their skills in comics and animations finally got out of the narrow place and landed on the big screen where they can best show their hands. It is an exciting thing to think about. thing.

Lila didn't intend to take DC and Marvel under her banner from the beginning.It's not that she doesn't want to, but that she can't.Because...she doesn't have that much money.

All of her money was invested in the east to build theaters, and what was left in her hands was not only to build a theme park, but also to pay for various films that were planned by Phoenix Company.

Her greatest good fortune is that all the films produced are making money for her, and she doesn't have to worry about the danger of losing money.Even if some films need to be recycled for a longer period, compared with other companies, her vision and luck are still the one that is envied and hated by all kinds of people.

Although she can buy the copyright of a certain superhero from Marvel DC to make a movie like Sony or New Line and other film companies, but knowing that superheroes will usher in a brilliant commemoration in 20 years is still so Doing it is no different from being stupid.

And she also knew that in the next few years, in order to pull the alliance together, the two companies also made a decision to recall those superheroes who were living outside.Laila can't remember the exact year, but she only remembers that the two companies did take back the copyright and used their resources to get the heroes who had wandered outside to return to their plan.

So she didn't plan to acquire the copyrights of the heroes individually, but hoped to do it in one step and hold all of them in her hands.A company has at least thousands of superheroes. Not only are the popular heroes popular, but the unpopular ones are also loved by everyone.

Not all of the thousands can appear on the big screen and be accepted by the audience, but even if one percent or one thousandth is loved by the audience, it is not a small sum.

Laila remembered that in the future, Disney bought Marvel for US$43.2 billion plus equity, and there was a lot of trouble at that time.The result is that they made a good deal and bought a super gold mine for the company at a "very little" price!

Marvel will definitely not be that expensive at this time, but unfortunately, Leila can't afford the money to buy it cheaply.The good news is that she still has time, as long as Marvel can take down their superheroes before they see how valuable they are!
DC created the first superhero-Superman (Superman), and the whole world was basically created around him.

Comics, animations, TV series, movies, peripherals, toys... It is difficult to calculate the value generated around him.What is certain is that this superhero will bring more profits in the future.

Lila is very interested in DC. The first superhero (Superman) came from their banner, and the first hero without superpowers (Batman) also came from their banner, which shows how valuable their creativity is.Unfortunately, DC was acquired by Time Warner in the late 60s and became one of the subsidiaries of Warner Bros.

Even if she wanted to pay for it, she probably wouldn't be willing to give up such a company with great potential.After all, Superman and Batman, the "world's best partner", have earned them enough profits to be valued by the company.

If you want to take a ride on the superhero explosion in the future, you can only focus on Marvel.

According to her memory, it will take several years for Marvel to turn around. Before that, it has been relying on writing scripts for major production work and selling the copyright of its heroes, such as "Blade Warrior" for New Line.

The money that copyright can get is really not much. When Sony made 30 billion madly from "Spider-Man", Marvel only got 6200 million US dollars.

This may be the reason why the boss of Marvel was willing to fight his back and use "Iron Man" to test the water.As a result, people all over the world know that Iron Man became popular, and Robert Downey Jr., who played Iron Man, also became popular.

Before that, no one would have guessed that Iron Man, who is not considered a first-line hero and has many flaws in character, would attract the love of so many audiences.Many people say that Robert Jr. played the protagonist alive, but few people notice that Iron Man's character is so non-mainstream.

Owen is definitely a true fan of superhero comics. He can speak clearly about any character Lila casually mentions.Looking at the way he is talking now, who can believe that the clumsy boy in the bookstore is the same person as him?
The two chatted happily, and those sitting in the back couldn't help but join in on their conversation.When it comes to differences of opinion, he will argue loudly, which makes Laila laugh and gain a lot.

This is a very loving place!When she left the coffee shop and took the car home, she had already decided that she had nothing to do to go there more.Originally, she went there to study the prospects and potential of superheroes, but unexpectedly, she fell in love with the relaxed and happy atmosphere there.

Who can believe it?Her first group of people who could be called friends turned out to be such a group of comic fans.But she really likes that she doesn't have to bear the trouble of the surname "Molan" and can talk freely with a group of young people who don't know her identity.
