Wang Xiaocong and the capital behind him were very powerful in the entertainment industry. Otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to sign a contract with a Hollywood film company without Zhao Yi's authorization of the copyright of Spider-Man.
The only thing they miscalculated was that Zhao Yi actually flipped the table!
Everyone had a weakness.
Zhao Yi was the same.
Zhao Yi was the director, and his weakness was the cinema chain.
Wang Xiaocong and the investors behind him controlled half of the country's cinema resources.
Without their approval, no matter how good Zhao Yi's movie was, it would not be able to enter the cinema.
If they couldn't get into the cinema, they wouldn't be able to get the box office.
Zhao Yi could only lose everything!
The reason why Wang Xiaocong was so arrogant earlier was because he thought that he had Zhao Yi in the bag.
In the entertainment industry, capital was greater than the sky!
No matter how unwilling Zhao Yi was, she could only lower her head in front of powerful capital.
Otherwise, he would never be able to stand out!
However, Wang Xiaocong didn't expect Zhao Yi to stop going to the cinema.
He was going out to sea?
"Have you lost your mind?" Wang Xiaocong frowned. Your movies are all made with Chinese faces. The foreign market won't accept it at all. You're dreaming!”
" That's why I didn't say anything when the Hollywood film companies came to negotiate," Zhao Yi said nonchalantly." I wanted to see how accepting they were."”
Zhao Yi smiled and said," I want to thank you all for letting me know that superhero movies are very popular in the overseas market!”
Zhao Yi looked at Wang Xiaocong's changing expression and added,"Because Hollywood's movie companies are offering a very high price, so high that even you guys who claim to be the gods of the entertainment industry, but are actually the worms of the entertainment industry, can't afford it!”
"The fact that Hollywood's film companies are willing to pay such a huge price proves the problem!" Zhao Yi smiled confidently.”
Zhao Yi looked at Wang Xiaocong and said sincerely,"So I want to thank you all for helping me find another way out. I will always remember you!”
At this point, Zhao Yi gave a look to the students beside her, and the students who were recording put away their phones.
Zhao Yi patted Wang Xiaocong on the shoulder and said in a low voice,"Young Master Wang, the pressure is on your side now! You threatened me not to go to the cinema. I just don't want to go. After all, I have another way to go out to sea, but what about you?”
Zhao Yi turned around and kindly reminded him,"Wang gongzi, you should consider it as soon as possible! Because the deadline for the lawsuit is coming up, you don't have much time!”
Wang Xiaocong's face was ashen.
He glared fiercely at Zhao Yi and did not say anything in the end. He turned around and walked out of the door.
As soon as Wang Xiaocong left, the surrounding university students gathered around him.
"Did you record everything?" Zhao Yi looked at them and asked.
The students nodded.
"Boss, don't worry. This is a 50x zoom camera that can even capture the moon clearly.”
"Boss, I got it too! Although my fruit console can't be zoomed, the radio effect is very good. Everything that Xiaowang said just now was recorded!”
"Boss, although my phone can't take photos or record videos, the camera comes with beauty. I even specially added a filter for you to make you look handsome!”
Zhao Yi was speechless.
He looked at everyone and said to the two in front of him,"Send the video to the others, then start making funny sounds. The title will be 'New director is suppressed by capital, banned because he's unwilling to sell his copyright. New director can only go out to sea in despair!'”
Then, Zhao Yi looked at the funny guy with the filter. Seeing that he was eager to try, she said with a headache,"Two people, drag this guy out!”
Zhao Yi said solemnly," I'm punishing you not because I think you're not doing your job properly. It's because I'm a handsome man to begin with. I don't need a filter!"”
"Tsk!"
The university students laughed and then turned around to post the video.
Zhao Yi was now a shareholder of Douyin. With a phone call, the video quickly became popular.
Zhao Yi woke up from her afternoon nap. As soon as she turned on her phone, she immediately received countless missed calls and unread messages!
Zhao Yi looked at the messages. Other than the big power and Liu Tianxian, the rest were basically unfamiliar numbers.
Zhao Yi first called Liu Tianxian back.
Liu Tianxian was recording a variety show on Mango TV.
After receiving Zhao Yi's call, she was almost furious!
"We've worked so hard to make a movie, so why can't they let us go to the cinema?”
"What right do they have to snatch your copyright?”
"Can our movie really go out to sea? I'm about to become an international superstar?”
As expected!
It was still the same smell!
Zhao Yi was very pleased to see that Celestial Immortal Liu had deviated from the main topic with just three sentences.
Celestial Immortal Liu still looked like she wasn't very smart.
It seemed that the publicity outside had been going quite smoothly recently. At least he hadn't suffered any grievances!
"Sister Fairy, Superman still has to focus on the domestic market," explained Zhao Yi.”
"Wang Xiaocong's words are actually right. Our movies all have Chinese faces. Even if the superhero theme has an audience overseas, it definitely can't compare to the huge domestic market!”
"I asked them to post the news online mainly to put pressure on the supervisory department. The entertainment industry was the country's entertainment industry. It had only been a few days since Weibo's trending searches were banned. They thought too highly of themselves if they wanted to dominate the industry with just their capital!”
"Other than attracting the attention of the relevant departments, another purpose is to collect evidence of monopoly. If 'Superman' really can't get into theaters, we can sue them for monopolizing the market!”
"The domestic audience has been suffering from capital for a long time. The strange and ugly casting in movies and television dramas has long tortured the audience!”
"If we carry out anti-monopoly and anti-capital lawsuits against theater chains, we will definitely receive the support of countless people! As long as the commotion was blown up, the officials would step in. At that time, even if they did not die, they would be skinned alive!”
Celestial Immortal Liu was dumbfounded. After a long time, she said,""You, you, are all screenwriters so dirty?”
"You didn't scheme against me like that, did you?" she asked warily.”
"No!" Zhao Yi said decisively," I'll tell you whatever I want. I'm not hiding anything or plotting anything!”
Zhao Yi was not lying.
He did not hide anything from Liu Tianxian.
He was counting her money!
"At least you know what's good for you!" Celestial Immortal Liu said confidently. However, I'm so smart. Even if you want to lie to me, you can't!”
Zhao Yi was speechless.
After hanging up the call with Liu Tianxian, the big power's phone called.
As soon as Zhao Yi picked up the call, she heard the powerful voice on the other end of the phone say solemnly,"Zhao Yi, someone wants to talk to you!”
"No problem!" Zhao Yi agreed immediately. However, he hoped that the person who came this time was someone who could take charge of the family and not a fool who only knew how to bark!”
As soon as Zhao Yi finished speaking, Wang Xiaocong started cursing.
The big power quickly turned to the side. When the other end of the phone was quiet, he said,"Since it's a negotiation, you have to show your sincerity. They hope that you can call Douyin to take the video down!”
Hearing this, Zhao Yi did not mind."I don't have to call you again for this kind of thing, right? Aren't you also a shareholder of Douyin? Can't you just say hello to CEO Zhang and the others?”
The great power was silent for a while, then said,""In order to bring in funds to enter 'Bright Queen,' I pulled out Douyin's investment!”
Zhao Yi was speechless.
Well, another stupid prodigal!
