Chapter 1453 Stan Lee (Eight/Ten)

"Boss, do we really want to buy those two special effects companies?" Ralph felt that the money was too expensive. Is the special effects company so valuable?

"We just need to hold a controlling stake, so that they can give priority to producing special effects for us according to our requirements. шщш. Then in terms of special effects, we are the number one in the world.”

"Ralph, you have to remember that a movie is meant to be seen, seen with the eyes. The 'brilliantness' of the story is very important, but the visual effects are also very important. Even the quality of the visual effects can affect the audience. liking."

Now those blockbusters are mainly big scenes, big productions, and big stars. But in the future, more cool visual effects and sound effects will definitely be added.

"Okay, then I'll talk to them, and I'll get the controlling stakes of the two companies as quickly as possible. But whether it's George Lucas or Peter Jackson, they're all very proud, and we may not be able to get it. control."

"Go talk to Peter Jackson, I think The Hobbit is very interesting, I plan to invest and let him shoot. As for George Lucas, you told him that Star Wars fans have been waiting for a long time and should release a A new movie!"

"And it's not necessarily to buy equity from them. We can invest in shares to allow their company to expand and undertake more special effects production in the future."

Those two are businessmen, but they are also big directors at the same time. If you invest in them and let them make their favorite movies, then you will be able to attract each other's goodwill.

Feng Yu is planning to shoot a comic film, which requires the improvement of film technology, especially special effects technology. But before filming all this, Feng Yu still needs the father of Marvel to create a new hero, a Chinese hero.

...

Stan Lee, the creator of most of Marvel's characters, was once the chairman of Marvel and the publisher of Marvel Comics. Later, it was said that he left Marvel due to personal reasons. In fact, he was 'forced' to leave, because at that time, the sales of Marvel gradually declined. The board of directors believed that his thinking was too old to lead Marvel to continue to take off, unless He was willing to write again.

But Stan Lee is too old, and he doesn't have enough 'energy' to create new comic characters, or good ideas, which have been exhausted.

So he went out and set up his own company, which unfortunately went bankrupt. At that time, his thinking was very avant-garde. He even wanted to do web comics, but no one was willing to invest in him.

After bankruptcy, he got help from some people, or got some dividends from Marvel, and he was also the screenwriter of those comic movies. He re-founded Power Entertainment with the intention of making a comeback.

It's easier said than done to make a comeback. Now the sales of comics are far from what they used to be.

However, movies based on comics are very popular now, such as "Spider-Man", which has a domestic box office of more than 400 million US dollars, but he has not received a dividend. According to the agreement between him and Marvel, if he creates The manga character 'Character' was adapted into a movie and he should get a 10% bonus.

Because of this incident, he went to court with Marvel. The lawsuit has been going on for nearly three years, and now it has reached the Supreme Court.

And just when he thought he was winning, someone he couldn't imagine contacted him.

"Mr. Feng, are you also a fan of my comics?" Stan Lee asked proudly. Even in the face of the richest man in the world, he is very proud. He once thought that no one in the world has not read his comics. If there is, it must have never been to school.

Feng Yu shook his head: "I'm sorry, I'm from China. When I was a child, I didn't read many Marvel comics. We read more comics from China, or comics from Xiangjiang and island countries."

The embarrassed look on Stan Lee's face disappeared in a flash: "Then why did Mr. Feng ask me to come over?"

Although he had guesses in his heart,

But Feng Yu is not his fan, so he suspects that he may have guessed wrong.

"Li, although I haven't read your comics, I still know about the characters you created. I've watched the "Spider-Man" cartoon. I always thought that Marvel was yours, but Ralph Tell me, you don't have any position at Marvel at this time, which is hard for me to understand."

"Maybe in the eyes of you Americans, business is business. If you can't create more value for the company, then you have to leave. But in China, it is completely different. Even if you want to retire, the company will give you a certain amount of money. Equity to prove the contribution to your company. It can be said that without you, there would be no Marvel today.”

"You went to court with Marvel. I don't understand that. In my opinion, it's like a father suing his own child. Do you feel good?"

Stan Lee was silent for a while, then said in a sullen voice: "Mr. Feng, you are right, it's like a father suing his own children, children who don't pay child support. Those hateful capitalists, they embezzled my children. I certainly don't want to leave Marvel if possible, but none of this is up to me to decide."

"It is also helpless to sue them. They have not fulfilled their contractual obligations, and they have embezzled what I deserve."

Feng Yu asked with a smile: "What if you could go back to Marvel? Are you willing to give up accusing Marvel?"

"Returning to Marvel? No, Mr. Feng, you don't know those vampires, they won't agree. Even if I go back, they won't give me any position, I don't need their alms!" Stan Lee said. When speaking, it is very hard.

"If I could get you back to Marvel as the publisher of Marvel Comics and give you a certain share, would you be willing to give up suing Marvel?"

"Me, the publisher? What does Mr. Feng mean by this?"

Stan Lee was surprised, does he still have a chance to become a publisher of Marvel?

"Wind and Rain Holdings Group intends to acquire Marvel Entertainment, including all its subsidiaries such as Marvel Comics and Marvel Studios. If you are not interested in Marvel Comics, then Marvel Studios can also, or Marvel Entertainment can also give You're an executive position, and you can annex your power entertainment."

"The premise is that I need you as a lobbyist to help us convince other shareholders of Marvel to sell the company to Wind and Rain Holding Group, and we will create a series of hero movies around Marvel's comic characters, guaranteeing that every One of them is a big production! We will let the characters of Marvel become popular all over the world, and once again bring the products of Anime Power to sell well, this is also your dream, isn't it?"

Stan Lee was tempted, and what Feng Yu described to him was exactly the scene in his dream.
