Reborn in Marvel, I am Iron Man's son?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Boss, even if you hired all the special effects companies in Hollywood and had them work day and night for you, it would be impossible to finish in such a short time!"

Samuel initially exclaimed on the phone that it was impossible.

But when he received the finished film and saw the special effects that were in no way inferior to those produced by top special effects companies, he had to accept the fact that Mark had indeed accomplished something that seemed impossible to him.

"How soon can the movie be released?"

Mark ignored Samuel's shock and asked him after he finished reading.

"It will take at least a month of advertising and promotion! I believe that once we release the trailer for our movie, it will definitely cause a sensation throughout the entire Federation."

Samuel's tone was now full of confidence; he believed that Captain America would be a huge hit after its release.

Chapter 133 Propaganda and Discussion

As a small film and television company, Payne Films does not have its own distribution channels and can only entrust other distribution companies to distribute its films.

These issuing companies typically take around 20% of the issuance fee.

However, because Payne Films had no impressive box office results to show for it, major distribution companies raised distribution fees to over 30% on the grounds that the risk was too high, with the highest one even proposing a 35% cut.

Mark, of course, could not agree to such conditions.

After all, the cinemas take 50% of the profits first, and then the remaining 30% is given to the distribution company, leaving Payne Films with very little profit.

Samuel visited more than a dozen distribution companies with the film but failed to reach an agreement, so he had no choice but to call Mark for help.

"Why don't you go talk to Stark Films?"

Marx then proposed this to Samuel.

"But Stark Pictures generally only distributes films produced by its own company and doesn't distribute films from other companies..."

Samuel looked helpless, but then his eyes lit up as if he had suddenly thought of something: "Could it be that the rumor is true?"

Samuel had also seen the news a while ago and knew that his boss was rumored to be Tony Stark's illegitimate son.

However, since Tony has never come forward to acknowledge it, he is only half-convinced by the rumor.

Upon hearing that Mark wanted him to go to Stark Films, Samuel immediately connected the dots of the rumor.

“I’ll let Mr. Stark know; you can just go there now.”

Mark hung up the phone after he finished speaking.

He originally didn't want to trouble Tony.

After all, although he saved the other person's life, Tony also gave him a top-of-the-line supercomputer, which was already a way of repaying his life-saving grace.

But these Hollywood distribution companies were too greedy, so Mark had no choice but to ask Tony for help.

Moreover, Mark is confident in the Captain America movie, believing that Tony's collaboration with them is a win-win situation.

Mark then dialed Tony's private number and told him about his plan to ask Stark Films for help distributing "Captain America".

"No problem, send someone to talk to the president of Stark Films. I'll let him know beforehand."

Upon hearing Mark's request, Tony immediately agreed, rendering Mark's prepared arguments unnecessary.

When Samuel arrived at Stark Films with the finished film of "Captain America," he was immediately and warmly received by President Bruno Sosa.

The other party didn't even watch the finished film before signing a distribution agreement with Payne Films, and the fee was only 10% of the profits.

"This……"

Samuel was somewhat bewildered as he looked at the agreement in his hand.

He had previously received very low terms from those publishing companies, and was also treated coldly; they simply sent him a secretary to get rid of him.

Unexpectedly, his treatment at Stark Films changed dramatically, and the conditions he received were beyond anything he had ever dared to dream of before!

"It's confirmed, our boss is definitely Tony Stark's son!"

Even after leaving Stark Films, Samuel was still muttering to himself.

After the two parties reached an agreement, Stark Films immediately began advertising and promoting "Captain America".

The 1-minute trailer that Alice edited began to be broadcast repeatedly on major federal television stations.

Newspapers, the internet, and radio began to promote "Captain America" ​​extensively.

Movie posters are plastered at subway stations, bus stops, and the entrances of major cinemas.

With Stark Pictures' powerful publicity capabilities, the entire Commonwealth population knew overnight that a movie starring WWII hero Steve Rogers, "Captain America," was about to be released!

The news immediately sparked widespread discussion among the public.

"Payne Films? Never heard of them! Captain America is my idol, I hope they can make a good film and not tarnish the image of Captain America in my heart!"

"The trailer looks pretty good, I'm looking forward to it! Especially the scene where Captain America is wearing the Stars and Stripes uniform and fighting the Germans, it got me really excited."

"Ha! After all these years, there are still people who believe Captain America, a character promoted by the government, is real?"

"..."

There was a lot of discussion online. Many older people consider Captain America their idol, so they were naturally very excited to learn that someone had brought Captain America to the big screen.

Many people simply don't believe that a small company like Payne Films could produce a satisfying superhero blockbuster.

There are also some rebellious young people who simply dislike Captain America, a character used as a propaganda tool by the government, and they scoff at the movie.

But regardless of praise or criticism, the movie "Captain America" ​​has certainly made a name for itself.

A month passed quickly.

After a period of continuous promotion, the movie "Captain America" ​​has become a household name, and even countries in Europe and Asia have heard about it.

Mark didn't pay much attention to this; for the past month, he had been going to outer space every day to absorb sunlight.

After a month of hard work, he also upgraded his thermal vision and super breathing to level 12.

The temperature of thermal imaging can now reach 3000 degrees Celsius, and continuous exposure for a few seconds can even vaporize steel.

The gale he created using his super breath reached 70 meters per second, and the cold air he exhaled reached a temperature of -150 degrees Celsius.

Mark's overall strength has been improved to some extent.

That afternoon, the premiere of "Captain America" ​​finally arrived.

"Mark! Come here and see, do I look better in this white dress or this purple dress?"

Rosalie stood in front of the mirror, holding up two dresses and trying them on, and even called Mark over to ask for his opinion.

Not only Mark, but she had asked Li Qianhuan and Lina the same question before.

Rosalie had attended film premieres before, but she was either a spectator or it was a very small event.

However, this premiere of "Captain America" ​​was held under the name of Stark Pictures, and almost half of the entertainment industry attended.

With such a grand event, Rosalie, as the lead actress, would naturally be nervous about going on stage with the crew.

Around 6 p.m., Rosalie and Mark left the villa by car and headed to Hollywood Boulevard for the premiere, escorted by two teams of bodyguards.

Also accompanying them were sisters Li Qianhuan and Li Qianle, siblings Pietro and Wanda, as well as Lina and Dalia.

When Rosalie and her group arrived at the El Theatre by car, they found that the roads near the theatre had been blocked off, and the roadsides were crowded with reporters and spectators.

Chapter 134 Unexpected Discovery

After Rosalie presented the invitation to prove her identity, she was allowed to pass by security guards on both sides of the road and arrived at the theater entrance by car.

She got out of the car and walked into the theater with Mark.

Reporters and fans around them initially thought that big-name celebrities had arrived, and they all took pictures of the two.

However, upon discovering that the two were not big-name celebrities, they stopped in disappointment.

Rosalie was only a third-tier star before, so she didn't really stand out at this star-studded premiere.

Only a few sharp-eyed reporters recognized that Mark might be the illegitimate son of Tony Stark that had been widely rumored online, and they quickly turned their cameras on him again.

However, Mark soon followed Rosalie down the red carpet into the theater.

Li Qianhuan and the others followed behind and went inside.

They had never been to such an occasion before, and they all looked around with curiosity.

The staff arranged for Rosalie and Mark to sit in the first row, while Li Qianhuan and the others were seated in the back.

"Hmm? What's this smell?"

As soon as Mark sat down, his keen sense of smell detected a faint chemical odor.

After a quick analysis and comparison, he soon found a match with the smell of a variety of chemical reagents in his mind—a mixture of ammonium nitrate and sodium nitrate.

This mixture is mostly used to make emulsion explosives, which are even more powerful than TNT.

Moreover, this emulsion explosive, when placed in a bottle at room temperature, will not be smelled by ordinary people even when they are in close proximity.

If Mark hadn't upgraded his Super Physique to level 12, which greatly enhanced his sense of smell, he might not have been able to smell it.

"Could someone have planted emulsion explosives in this screening room?"

Mark glanced around discreetly, his expression somewhat grave.

By this time, many Hollywood stars, directors, and a large number of reporters had already entered the screening room, totaling more than two hundred people.

If something were to happen now, it would likely cause a major earthquake in the entire entertainment industry.

"Mom, please sit here for a while. I'll go look around elsewhere."

Mark said something to Rosalie beside him, then turned and left.

"Be careful!"

Rosalie didn't know what Mark was going to do, but she trusted him completely, so she just whispered a word of advice.

Following the smell of emulsion explosives, Mark quickly walked towards the front desk of the screening room.

He soon discovered that the smell was coming from a decorative vase on either side of the front desk.

Mark could even hear the noises coming from the electronic components inside the vase.

The other party must have planted the explosives last night; otherwise, given the security forces outside, it would be unlikely that they could have brought the explosives through security.

"call……"

Mark opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of cold air toward the vase in front of him.

At a temperature of -150 degrees Celsius, the vase and the emulsion explosive inside froze instantly, and the electronic components used to detonate the explosive were also destroyed.

Mark weaved through the crowd, destroying the remaining three emulsion bombs in the same manner.

People around him saw that he was just a child, so they didn't pay much attention to him walking around in the screening room.

Little did they know that Mark had secretly averted a deadly crisis for them.

When Mark returned to Rosalie's side, the movie premiere officially began.

The host invited the director and main actors, including Rosalie, to the stage for about 20 minutes of interactive activities and interviews.

Fortunately, Rosalie had memorized the interview questions and answers beforehand at home, so her performance on set went smoothly.

Mark appeared to be watching the interviews and interactions on stage, but in reality, he was carefully listening to the heartbeats of everyone present, trying to find the person who planted the explosives.

Perhaps the other person had exceptional mental fortitude, but Mark remained completely unaware that someone in the screening room was experiencing an abnormal heartbeat.

After the interactive session, the movie officially began.

The stars, directors, and reporters who attended the premiere were there out of respect for Stark Films; many of them didn't have high expectations for Captain America.

After all, what good movies can a small, relatively unknown company like Payne Films produce?

Moreover, apart from Victor North, who plays Captain America and is a relatively well-known second-tier Hollywood star, the other actors are almost all unknowns.

But once the movie started, they quickly realized they were wrong!

Whether it was the captivating plot or the stunning special effects, this movie deeply captivated everyone in the audience.

The audience rejoiced as Steve grew, especially when he single-handedly overturned a tank and charged into the Nazi army, wreaking havoc. The applause and cheers in the theater were deafening.

Finally, to prevent the high-energy bombs filling the entire plane from harming the residents of the city below, Steve deliberately turned the plane around and crashed it into the icy sea, which once again drew prolonged applause from the crowd.

Before Mark traveled through time, this was just a movie, and everyone knew it was fake, so the impact might not have been as profound.
