Chapter 640: It’s not enough to talk about it.


At the same time that "Black Man" rushed to the $76 million box office in the first week, the black super police in the film also caused a whole society's imitation trend as in the past life. Later, the popularity of black clothes and sunglasses was Like the wind on the other side of the ocean, "The Heroes of the True Color" after the release of the little horse brother's trench coat and toothpick, although the release time is in the hot summer, but still difficult to block the fans wearing black clothes wearing sunglasses and appearing on the street, since then, the media It has also become popular with a proprietary 'black super mask' term.
At the same time, the film also evoked a new round of alien discussion in the media because of the ubiquitous alienation of characters and events in reality. First and foremost, the most popular discussion object is no suspense occupied by Eric's ‘Pandora Stars’. After all, Eric started from a common high school student and became a tens of billions of dollars in media tycoons in just six years. This miraculous life experience is unique in human history.
Numerous media have since begun to relish Eric's factors that are consistent with the 'characteristics' of aliens. Even Eric's more fickle character has become an 'alien' in the gossip tabloid attempting racial aggression. Evidence, even someone sent a willingness to the White House to investigate the identity of Eric’s 'aliens', and there was no shortage of people to take Eric’s wealth at this time and ask the federal government to really levy Eric’ Alien Immigration Management Tax'. Of course, these requests will not receive any response.
After the development of the matter, even the serious "New York Times" could not help but comment on the important pages to join in the fun: "Eric Williams is a madman who is self-conscious and has satisfied the gossip of the whole universe. ""
A famous film critic in the Washington Post, who is holding a stake in Buffett, also tweeted in a line in the movie: "If you can see Eric Williams, I am willing to spend $4."
More interesting is. After the "Black Man" products began to be on sale. The most popular ones are not the cool weapon models, nor the wide variety of aliens, but the pair of sky blue tentacles that Eric wears on the head in less than thirty seconds, except for a large number of fans. Buying a collection or wearing a party outside, perhaps with the idea that the child is as good as Eric, even some parents like to buy a pair of sky blue tentacles as a gift.
However, after the box office explosion of "Black Man", a series of questions about the sequel also followed.
Sony-Colombia has made a name for itself in the past two years through the release of several films that have been working with Fireflies. But under the ruin of Peter Cooper, the company is still losing money for years. The original "Smiths" and "Broken Arrows" projects from the fireflies did not cause any windfall in the division of interests, but the success of "Black Man" clearly exceeded the "Smiths" and "Broken Arrows". And the profits of the sequel are undoubtedly richer.
As a result, the division of interests between Colombia and Firefly 46 has caused Sony's attention.
Because the copyright of this manga originally belonged to Columbia Pictures completely, but after cooperating with Firefly, Colombia not only lost most of the profits that should have been enjoyed by itself, but also lost 60% of the copyright. The most important thing is that according to the original Agreement. If the sequel development is delayed for a long time, even the remaining 40% of the copyright in Colombia will be lost.
If the sequel development is all right, nothing is going on. Since the original choice to sign the contract, Sony has only kept his nose to continue to cooperate with the fireflies. However, after the great success of "Black Man", including the film director, two male protagonists, producers and even the original manga of "Black Man" have jumped out in an attempt to share enough benefits in the sequel.
In the face of this situation, the fireflies will certainly not compromise. If the distribution of interests is not enough, it will not be enough for everyone. Even if I am a lawsuit, I am not afraid. Anyway, the movie company of Firefly is not short of popular movie projects. The film list of the main schedule of Firefly is even three years later, but Columbia Pictures can't afford it. After Sony bought this company, it not only found that it didn't. Can get a dime of profit, and did not play a role in the promotion of their own video format, with the advent of the dvd era, if Colombia continues to lose money, the film company will definitely become more and more tasteless.
Moreover, Sony has gradually realized something that is not right. However, the Japanese did not immediately turn to the face of the fireflies, but Sony executives began to press on Peter Cooper, letting Peter Cooper win the company for Colombia. Interests.
Peter Cooper himself also realized that he was sitting in this position soon. Of course, he also knew to what extent Colombia had been rotted. After the cooperation with the fireflies was terminated, it was impossible to continue to stay in this position.
However, because there are two big films in the second half of the year, "The Game of the Brave" and "The Impossible in the Dish" will be released soon. Although Peter Cooper has already benefited from the past few years, he still hopes to be able to release the two films at the end of the year. After that, according to the award contract signed at the beginning, with the success of the two films, they got the last huge dividend and left Colombia.
So, in just a few days, Peter Cooper was almost entangled in several high-level fireflies, and even found Eric, who has been immersed in the studio of Wei Mi.
Taking advantage of the busy crowds around, especially those who are wearing a model, Peter Cooper standing next to a workbench still remembers Eric. "Eric, you see this is good, We can sign a sub-agreement, including the director of "Black Man" and the two stars, only after the sequel has reached a certain level of profit, we can get dividends. This standard can be raised higher, so if the sequel Once again, if we are successful, even if we give those main interests more, we will still make a profit."
Eric continued to discuss with the designer a set of angel costumes, not to look at Peter Cooper, saying: "Peter, you should know how much the Hollywood pay has now risen. Sony is rich and doesn't mind these, but Are we Hollywood natives always looking more long-term?" (To be continued.)
