543 - What did you do to Wayne, then do it again.

"Didn't Disney's conditions for Marvel start to make superhero films within two years?" Kevin Feige saw what the other party wanted to say, immediately stretched out a finger, shook it in front of Avi Adra's eyes, and then continued:

"As long as you want to investigate, Hollywood has no secrets that can be hidden. Don't rush to deny it, Avi."

Surprise ceo was speechless and kept silent looking at the other party. In fact, he had already agreed to this statement. In addition to being willing to pay a portion of the money, the most important condition of Disney is also the most touching condition, which is to make the copyright film and television in a short period of time.

Moreover, during this process, Disney also agreed to allow some senior executives of Marvel Comics to participate, which is also one of the more touching reasons.

"Wayne's agent Jimmy has provided a solution to see if it can meet your needs." Kevin Feige saw the other party listening silently, so he simply said everything directly. "Greenberg Studio can also start the film and television adaptation of "Iron Man" within two years. Note that the producer will be Wayne Greenberg himself. You should know what this means."

With a "slam" sound, Avi Adra stood up directly from the office chair, his eyes widened, and was obviously startled by the news. Looking at the magazines on the table, the dazzling Batman cover on it, and the terrifying box office numbers in it, he certainly knew the significance of the participation of the top director.

But less than two seconds later, he sat down relaxed again, crossed his hands in front of his chin, and looked at the other person on the table, and asked calmly: "What are the conditions? What are the conditions? I have had contact with that guy, and he is not a young man who is easy to talk to."

"The condition is..." Kevin Feige narrowed his eyes and said, "You are surprised to do what you did to him and to others again!"

“Ahhh?!”

"No, it's twice!" In fact, in Kevin Feige's opinion, this condition is not easy. Wayne is hard to talk to. Could it be that executives from other companies are easy to talk to?

"Jimmy's original words are that Greenberg Studio will pay all the funds, and you are responsible for talking. He said that Mr. Greenberg has loved superheroes since he was a child, and he especially likes "Black Panther" and "Hulk". If you can recover the copyrights of "Black Panther" and "Hulk" from Yatison Entertainment and Universal Pictures in the name of surprise..."

“f**k!”

Avi Adra made a swear word, and he knew that things were not that simple to solve. Now "Batman" is raging in the North American theater market, and the market potential of superheroes is undoubtedly revealed. At this point in time, it is basically a joke to take back the copyright from outside. No one is stupid, especially those production companies that have no bottom line.

However, when he looked back, he felt that this was not completely impossible. "The Hulk" had just experienced a tragic box office tragedy, and it was said that it had caused a lot of tricks from Universal Pictures. Conservatively, the movie lost hundreds of millions of dollars in this step.

Maybe it will offer a price higher than the market price, and it will be a big deal and sting, which may really make Universal Pictures relieved.

As for "Black Panther", the difficulty is indeed much smaller than "Hulk". Atythy Entertainment is a subsidiary of Columbia Pictures. It should have never planned to make "Black Panther" films and television, but it is hard to say that none of these production companies are vegetarian.

"You know, I also hope that Marvel's superhero can fly on the big screen like Batman." Kevin Feige shook his head. Of course he knew the difficulty of this matter.

"So, if I do it, what can we get?"

Avi Adra's voice was very calm, and his brain was thinking quickly while speaking. "Don't say Wayne Greenberg will dominate the film and television industry, that's not enough."

"Hey, Avi, this is just a simple intention. If you are willing to try it, you need to talk to Wayne's agent in person. The rest is not something I can participate in." Kevin Feige spread his hands and said.

"Well, no matter what the outcome is, I will remember you once." Avi Adra stood up and stretched out her hand. "Find a time and help me make an appointment with that agent."

"No problem, leave it to me."

At the same time, after the box office of "The Dark Knight" was released two days ago, it affected not only the media's extensive reports, but because the first change in the box office was the theaters under the theater league. The large-scale theater chain led by AMC had no concealment at all. On Sunday, the screening rate of "The Dark Knight" increased by about 7% again since it was already very high.

If nothing unexpected happens, such a intensive screening rate will not change until next Friday. Starting from Sunday morning, in major mainstream commercial theaters in North America, almost all of them are screened by "The Dark Knight". The interval between each movie is up to ten minutes, and the next "The Dark Knight" will begin.

Such crazy film schedules are very rare in cinemas, but this is also a necessary condition for movies to get high box offices in a short period of time. There may not be many in this era, and in another ten years, it will become a common phenomenon.

Enough screen count, enough intensive screening rate, and enough screening theaters all ensure that passers-by can watch the video anytime, anywhere.

Compared with the attacks caused by competition that Wayne encountered when his films were released in previous years, this year's "The Dark Knight" was the least controversial before and after its release. From movie fans, media to critics, one-sided praise is also the basis for the film to create amazing box office.

With all the good conditions as guaranteed, the movie was a perfect start. However, compared with the film's extremely strong performance on Friday and Saturday, the number of viewers dropped significantly from the beginning of Sunday.

Today is the last day of the holiday, which is more in line with normal market rules. Compared with the previous two days, Sunday is not so crazy, but the attendance rate remains above 70%, which is enough to give theater companies the confidence to insist on expanding screenings.

"The Dark Knight" has crushed together for two consecutive days. Warner Bros. has not completely relaxed. The promotional and marketing plan has been prepared for a long time, and is still proceeding in an orderly manner.

At 7 p.m. Sunday, Warner Bros. published an important notice through its media and media with good relationships. Because of the audience's love for "The Dark Knight", Warner Bros. is preparing to officially release the Batman single "Something Just Like This" in major cities across North America tomorrow, Monday.

Warner Bros. stated in the notice that the MV of this song is the documentary filmed by Wayne and George Lucas. This single ep is also known as "Little Batman, Attack", and the singers are Wayne and George Lucas.

When the news was released, countless movie fans immediately fell into madness. The influence of this song was too great. It can even be said that a considerable number of family fans were willing to take their whole family to the theater to watch movies on weekends because they were influenced by this song and this short documentary.

The reporter's sense of smell is quite keen. When Warner Bros.'s notice was just released, many reporters chose to go to Lucas Pictures to surround George Lucas, wanting to interview the singer who made a temporary guest appearance. Facing the reporters blocking Lucas Pictures' door, the father of Star Wars said to the microphone:

"Of course, the purpose of singing this song with Wayne is to help more people in need. There is no problem with copyright here. I hope that more people can get brave insights and strength after listening to this song."

Just as the agreement was made, George Lucas had just received an interview, and Wayne, who had just got off the plane in Boston, accepted the interview with extremely rare patiently in the face of a reporter's question. He also expressed that he hoped that this song could give more people strength.

"Director Greenberg, can you talk about when did you find yourself talented in composing?"

In the lobby of Boston Airport, the reporters obviously were not so easy to satisfy. They all knew that once this song was released tomorrow, with the hot influence of "Batman", it would definitely become the focus of national attention.

"Well......"

Before Wayne could figure out what to say, Naomi Watts, who was standing next to him, looked extremely proud on his face and said loudly: "Hey, you may not know that as long as Wayne wants to do, there is nothing he can't do well. I'm talking about not just movies, but of course there is music. He once sang another original song for me. Oh my God, that time I moved me to tears, so "Something Just Like This" is not his only work..."

Seeing that she wanted to continue talking, Wayne quickly stretched out a hand and patted the woman on the back. At the same time, he also had a cold sweat on his back. Of course, he understood that his crude singing skills with George Lucas could only be said to be not out of tune at most, and the difference between those singers who relied on music was not a little bit worse than those singers who made a living by music.

Besides, when he was still on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, he was not a pure fan. He had only produced two songs intact since he was a child, and he had no musical talent at all.

"I have discussed it with George." Without waiting for the reporters to ask questions, Wayne said to the long gun in front of him without hesitation: "Warner Brothers also agreed with us. All the proceeds from the single "Something Just Like This" will be donated to charity organizations to fulfill the dreams of those children."

In fact, all of this is a marketing plan arranged by Warner Bros. When a large number of family fans began to appear in the cinema, the Warner Bros. distribution department had found the reason, which was this song and that documentary. Of course, they would not miss such an opportunity.
