Chapter 32 Summer Time? What Are You Thinking!
Chapter 32 Summer time? What are you thinking!
Although the 45% account split ratio is a bit bullying, it is not absolutely unbearable. The problem is that the conditions later became more excessive, and the rental of video tapes was almost swallowed up.
Well, this is also tolerated.
Only two hundred screens is too exaggerated, and even this number of screens cannot be guaranteed.
Summer file?
This is absolutely impossible, the schedule is scheduled for November, and there is no guarantee.
This is really beyond the point of view, you have all seen the sample, even if it is not amazing, it is not so unbearable.
A company like United Artists has a very large distribution volume, and more than half of their profits come from film distribution, which is a business that guarantees income during drought and flood.
Hollywood is a place with big butts, and reporters naturally don't forget to add insult to injury. For William White's film, they almost spared no effort to discredit it.
This kind of behavior obviously touched someone's sensitive nerves. The outside world should not know the news of the internal screening. Even if they know the news, it is absolutely not allowed to report.
William White naturally refused to suffer, not only sent several media to court, but also filed an arbitration application with the Fair Trade Commission.
Several major Hollywood giants have monopolized the distribution channels, and wantonly belittled the movies of their competitors. The contents of the internal screenings were leaked, which obviously violated the most basic professional ethics.
The big guys in Hollywood didn't expect to meet such a stunned young man. It's no big deal to figure out that the new company is their traditional project.
The situation is obviously different now. This is the rhythm of things. Once United Artists’ plan was announced, the industry was in an uproar. About 30% is already exaggerated. You are Hongguoguo’s robbery.
It’s okay to do this normally, but now there is a relentless person, so things will be troublesome. This case, the Fair Trade Commission still has to make a ruling. They have already said that you can cooperate with each other. We are ready to go to the Ministry of Justice.
A new company is directly angry at the three giants of Hollywood. The people who eat melons are already dizzy, and they have never seen such a stunned person.
United Artists was completely dizzy, and they were directly put on the fire. They can guess how the Trade Fairness Committee will make a ruling. As long as they are entangled by this group of people, there will be countless troubles in the future. trouble.
Regardless of how they were entangled, William White started another pioneering project. This guy planned to rent 300 theaters for as long as a month.
You have to know how many screens there are in a theater, and there are still two screens on average, so that's 600 screens, which is the standard for the movies of several major giants, unless you are a movie like Superman.
Hollywood has never seen this kind of simplicity and rudeness. The meaning behind what they say is very clear. At worst, they will buy a few theaters and then clean up the management.
Except for the theater chains in which several major Hollywood giants have shares, the other small theater chains are really not enough for him to toss about.
Today is different, the banks are now begging him for loans, the dozens of banks in New York are now green with regret, they are almost a joke in the industry.
Hollywood's big tear, of course, aroused the interest of the media, and the topic of William White became noisy again.
"I think it is very inappropriate for minorities to control Hollywood. There is a lack of fairness here. You need to wear a yarmulke to negotiate, otherwise no one will listen to you. Sadly, I like my cowboys hat, not going to convert me."
These words were exaggerated by the media, and instantly detonated the entire United States. This guy not only intended to trigger the confrontation between the North and the South, but also intended to involve religious issues.
Hollywood has a deep understanding of the destructive power of this product. The incident has not yet ended, and a group of guys in charge of the business of White Films have all been fired.
The elephants were very excited and began to wave flags and shouts, and William White was obviously regarded as the flag bearer.
The boss of the Hollywood giant is very angry. Although making money is very important, it is more important to promote their values. Now some people are planning to be unreasonable. You better deal with it properly, otherwise someone will definitely die.
Things are getting serious, and theater operators are afraid to make any fools. This guy is an iron-headed hedgehog. Now it is clear that he is looking for faults. He has given a guarantee. If you are still dissatisfied, believe it or not, you will also be The pot is stewed.
The three giants are in trouble now. They want to negotiate now. United Artists can't bear it anymore. The current investigation situation is very ineffective for them. If one is not good, they will be the punching bag of the whole society.
William White has already expressed his attitude, there will be no more opportunities for cooperation, at most buddies, Hollywood will stop mixing, and you must learn a lesson.
The most troublesome thing is public opinion. William White received overwhelming support. Many people interviewed said that they would support the film no matter what.
At the same time, the box office of movies in major theaters is declining, and the winter in Hollywood seems to be coming early.
I believe that within a certain period of time, William White can walk sideways in Hollywood, and no one will provoke this lunatic.
People have already said that Maupassant is his favorite author, and he will learn more in the future.
For some people, this is the threat of Hongguoguo. In Maupassant's novels, they are synonymous with greed and stinginess. They are worthy of being a great writer, and the level of delicacy in their descriptions is simply unforgettable.
People who can understand will naturally understand. What they mean is that my buddy is still a best-selling author. Believe it or not, I will continue to smear you people.
The old guys behind are completely overwhelmed. This is a warning. You must not make any outside moves. It is necessary for the three companies to learn a lesson. If you dare to act recklessly, the consequences will be very serious.
The most important point is that I am only responsible for setting the fire. It is your job to deal with the aftermath. Don't expect me to endorse it for you.
People in the Hollywood circle are afraid of these giants, but young people represented by students are not afraid.
Anyway, the current movies are also rubbish. In California and Texas, there are groups boycotting Hollywood to varying degrees.
Now everyone is anti-mainstream, Hollywood giants have undoubtedly become targets, the bad economic situation is also intensifying, and social conflicts are very prominent.
At such a very sensitive time, United Artists' behavior is considered to be death. The so-called Fair Trade Commission is very easy to be influenced by public opinion and public opinion, so it goes without saying how to make a ruling.
Soon some people in the industry broke the news that someone else was suppressing William White because they wanted to obtain the film and television adaptation rights of Forrest Gump.
After the giant’s request is rejected, suppression and lessons are inevitable. The quality of the film is actually good. The current situation is the result of deliberate suppression. As long as William White compromises and sells the film and television adaptation rights at a low price, all these suppressions will also be eliminated. It will evaporate.
For a while, public opinion was in an uproar.
This kind of thing is actually normal in Hollywood. You can do it, but you must not make it public. This is already a challenge to the public’s bottom line. The news that has been deliberately suppressed has become popular again. This time, it can’t be suppressed even if you want to. The media don’t want to Lie gun together.
If this guy points the finger at the media, the world will be in chaos, and there will be no way to end it.
