When the American people saw the New Year special issue, they almost choked to death by their saliva.

There is no airtight wall in the world. When Xiao Qiang planned to establish the Eurasian Film Alliance, the news was revealed.

In addition to marveling at Xiao Qiang and creating a miracle, people were also waiting enthusiastically to watch the exciting offensive and defensive battles between the two major movie alliances.

But in the New Year of 1992, with more than a dozen film companies, the largest in Europe, who used to have the deepest disgust of Hollywood, all members of the Eurasian Film League agreed to the cooperation requirements of Hollywood!

This is like a fantasy!

People all over the world who want to watch the fun are cursing. These people are so unemployed. They have not seen the climax yet, so why did these guys surrender?

Is Xiao Qiang, the world's largest magician, still exhausted?

Isn’t he good at using one magic after another? It’s dazzling and doesn’t know how to deal with it? Why did the film alliance he organized suddenly collapse without any signs in advance?

It was like Xiao Qiang was using a magic power that was extremely powerful, and everyone was breathing forward, wanting to see the true appearance of the magic. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qiang acted for a long time, and then suddenly said, "I don't have enough magic power, come again next time", and then turned around and ran away, which made all the audience stunned.

The two camps with distinct barriers have reached the battlefield owner, and then all the teams in one part are sentenced to escape. Only on the original position are Xiao Qiang, a lonely commander, left. This is simply a big deal!

Isn’t this to play all the audiences of the world like monkeys?

The American media are also not prepared at all.

They all waited until Hollywood signed a cooperation agreement with these companies before they woke up as if they were dreaming.

The panic of the American media can be clearly seen from the messy reports.

Some media are still reporting on the rebellion of major European film companies; some are already revealing the latest cooperation agreement they signed with Hollywood: some newspapers publish photos of Xiao Qiang being at a loss: some are publishing large-scale news pictures of European film companies and Hollywood joining hands...

The first to turn against more than a dozen European film companies in Dena is the backbone of the alliance and the pillar of the film industry in its country.

Their land price is also the highest: global distribution rights, all revenue from cinemas in their country, global cvd disc land revenue, and American cinemas in their share.

It turned out that those European film companies that first wanted to join Hollywood were waiting aside when they saw the boss in negotiations.

The reason why they want to seek immediate benefits is because their strength is not strong enough and they are not sure about future competition. The backbone of those alliances is all the leading companies in the film industry in their country, and Hollywood is more willing to cooperate with them, and other companies are only honestly ranked behind.

Besides, the boss’s negotiation conditions are equivalent to seeking benefits for them.

Some bosses have good conditions to talk about, and they also have reference standards when talking with Hollywood. At least they won’t suffer too much. These small and medium-sized film companies are also happy to let the boss rush ahead.

More than a dozen European film companies also publicly stated that the global distribution rights are determined to win. They are willing to make a fortune together with Hollywood and engage in fair competition around the world. However, if Hollywood is not willing to satisfy this, it means that their cooperation is not sincere at all, and they just want to use the form of cooperation to allow Hollywood films to enter the domestic film market.

Governments such as Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Hong Kong, and Japan also spoke, saying that if fair competition is allowed, they are willing to cooperate appropriately with the United States, otherwise they will reject the unreasonable demands of the United States.

Hollywood is welcome to Xiao Qiang's film alliance. Although they still doubt their sincerity, once the cooperation is successful, it will have a demonstration effect. They cannot refuse. Rejection means closing the door to all film companies. It means that Hollywood is just a scam, just like these companies claiming that the so-called cooperation is just a scam.

The Hollywood boss faced the other party's proposal of the terms. He was straight to the teeth, scratching his scalp and feeling happy.

Film companies around the world are watching how Hollywood responds, just to appease everyone, and they can't help but not let them go.

It’s okay to say that the global screening rights are the best. Hollywood’s film sales channels have long been spread all over the world. It is more sound than sales channels. No company can compare to Hollywood!

European companies just want to gain more benefits through this method.

However, the domestic cinema chain revenue is too much, and the share of the US film market is too much.

We took a long time to shoot the film. Yours is yours, and you have to take a bite. Isn’t this too much? We can ask this, you have to do this. That’s just too ignorant!

Disc revenue is even more of a thorn in Hollywood's side and a thorn in flesh. They are trying to make losses, just to fight against the CVD of Universal Corporation. After a long time of trouble, you are singing a Trojan horse to massacre the city, and then invade the opportunity within us to seek benefits for Universal Corporation!

It's intolerable!

这个条款.绝对不能答应!

Hollywood movie giants held meetings for several days before holding a press conference to respond to the requirements of their European film colleagues one by one.

Global screening rights can be granted. With the ability of everyone, whoever has a wide sales route will benefit more.

The exclusive income of the cinema in China and the sharing of the revenue from the US film is an unreasonable requirement. It is unacceptable. However, they proposed that both parties can open the market, and I can ask your cinema operator to discuss the issue of theater broadcasting, and you can also come to my territory. As long as the cinema operator agrees to sign a screening contract with you, we have no objection.

This article. Anyone with bright eyes knows that it is a short favor released by Hollywood.

It is extremely difficult for other countries to enter the cinema chain in the United States. However, Hollywood can enter the cinema chain within the quota system. This is like changing the soup without medicine. It is no different from before.

The most important point proposed by Hollywood is that the right to distribute the movie's disc. CVD must not be granted!

They want to take advantage of this opportunity to drive out all the CVDs in the Universal Company, and then cancel their cooperation with European film companies again. They will return to the original Hollywood dominance.

If you have the opportunity, it is also a good choice to squeeze European film companies and get rid of them.

Universal immediately expressed strong indignation about Hollywood’s request!

Just one hour after the press conference here, Universal held their press conference. The reporters were thrilled to two places and didn't feel it was hard.

不怕辛苦.就怕辛苦没回报.

If Xiao Qiang can't make a fuss with one punch, their report tomorrow will lose at least half of their customers. Xiao Qiang is now an important guarantee of sales, and the American news media love him so much.

They don’t want the Universe to fall so soon. It’s better to have another Jedi counterattack to make the news more dramatic.

Of course, as Americans are proud, they also need the world's final failure. Then give Xiao Qiang's frustrated expression, give a close-up of his facial expression, add a title like "Tracial Hero," and so on. You can make another money.

At this press conference of Universal Company, Xiao Qiang met the media's requirements and took action personally.

He angrily accused Hollywood of its despicable means, saying that it was unfair competition. It violated the principles of the market economy and was a naked trampling on the free economy.

He slapped all over the place and talked for more than an hour. Then he raised a contract.

In this contract, which European companies will have the right to distribute past videos in Europe, and at the same time, new videos will be filmed within one year after the contract is signed. Whether it is sole proprietorship or co-production, Universal will automatically have the right to distribute!

If they want to avoid the contract, they should not make movies for a year!

Xiao Qiang said furiously that if those companies dare to sign with Hollywood to deprive the world of legitimate rights and interests, he will sue the European and American courts!

Looking at his blushing face and thick neck, all American media were as happy as eating ice cream during the dog days.

This kid always wins. Although his methods are incredible, it is indeed amazing. But it is so unpleasant to always win. How rare it is to be able to see him lose his composure!

The Hollywood giants laughed wildly when watching live TV.

Xiao Qiang's actions have already indicated that he has lost his calmness. At the same time, it also shows that he has lost the most powerful support of CVD. He will go crazy, proving that he has played all the cards in his hand, so he will be so angry.

For Hollywood giants, they don’t care about Xiao Qiang’s previous series of combined punches.

Whether it is games, dance, or karaoke, this has not touched their interests, and these projects have no impact on the standards of film carriers, so they can ignore them.

Only movies are the key to killing them quickly and never allowing the world to get involved.

Xiao Qiang was so violent that he said nothing, showing two things: the betrayal of European film companies. The blow to him was fatal: he had no successor tricks anymore.

These Hollywood giants, who are not in the front, just can't figure out what Xiao Qiang has to do behind him. Now, when they see Xiao Qiang's performance, they immediately know what they think.

The cooperation between European and American film industry and local areas has been launched quickly and comprehensively.

This year's discs can be obtained, but those European film companies must also guarantee in writing that future cooperative films must be prohibited from having any contact with Universal. Otherwise, Hollywood will file a lawsuit with the European Court of Justice as the owner of the film.

Hollywood is absolutely sure about this.

As long as it is a cooperative film, Hollywood owns the copyright of the film. If any direction wants to transfer the disc distribution rights, the other party must obtain the consent of the other party.

Their full cooperation with European film companies has hindered the future source of discs from Universal.

Even these companies really have to play Trojan tricks in their hearts. When faced with copyright, they can only surrender.

They don't believe it. They have stuck with the film source from Europe, what else do they do!

The cooperation agreement was signed, and the most important thing was to make a series of exciting films. The movies in Eurasia jointly produced have long been spread all over the world. Universal Company used this as a gimmick to promote their cvds everywhere.

To attack Universal Company, we must make better-looking movies than those in Europe, and completely overwhelm the other party. Let movie fans all over the world know that if you want to watch the best movie, don’t count on Universal Company anymore.

But watching some video highlights of Universal’s boastful company, these giants also had a headache.

The films of the Eurasian cooperation this time are very good, with big productions and highlights that movie fans like. It is quite difficult to surpass them!

Hollywood also took the initiative, and they took all their skills and gathered outstanding filmmakers from all over the United States. They decided to spend huge sums of money to create several real masterpieces.

1992 is destined to be a glorious moment with a large number of stars.

European-co-produced blockbusters are in full swing, and Hollywood has also launched their shooting plans.

Science fiction film "Independence Day": thrilling action film "Air Force One", "Life and Death": comedy film "Forrest Gump": inspirational film "Shawshank Redemption": romance film "Titanic": cartoon "The Lion King".

There are also seven films, but through Hollywood promotion, these films have been known around the world before they even started filming. Countless movie fans are looking forward to the release of these films.

In order to produce peerless works that truly amazed the world, Hollywood companies spared no effort.

In the movie, even if it is a trivial character, they invite stars to play. In order to create the best special effects, they spend a lot of money on computer special effects.

Here, the role of the European Film Company, as a partner, seems very embarrassing.

All the most famous European actors are participating in those films jointly filmed by the alliance and cannot get out of here. The rest are all unknown second-rate actors.

But since it is a cooperative filming, Hollywood must also join several European film companies actors. They have to think about it and have to let them play some supporting roles to make up for the numbers.

The European and American continents, across the tide of Daxi, the two most outstanding filmmakers on the two continents have launched extremely fierce competition for their honor. In order to prove their movies, they are the best. All actors have abandoned their selfish thoughts and devoted themselves to the performance. In order to play a role that only shows a small face, the stars also try their best to memorize lines. With the best acting skills, these films have been made into classic works that have been performed forever.

While the filmmakers on both sides were fighting for honor, Universal still promoted their cvd step by step.

Due to the collapse of the European Film Alliance, the sales of CVD have slowed down. Although Universal has continuously launched classic European films to the United States after re-production and has repeatedly attracted praise from family audiences. However, due to concerns about the prospects, the number of people buying has begun to slowly decrease.

Video discs are still selling.

After all, both the DVD player and the disc are so cheap, because the videos recently launched are very good. After renting the discs, family viewers usually ask Universal to mail a set of discs to them as collection.

Seeing signs of shrinking the US market, Universal Corporation also maintained the US market while using the agreement signed with European film companies in Europe to develop the European market.

Their actions further confirm the statement that Universal Company is powerless to turn things around.

This time, the media across the United States have made a final tone, believing that Universal Company is "completely finished" and that Xiao Qiang's ambition can no longer break through the joint encirclement of film companies around the world.

At the end of July 1992, Hollywood's first masterpiece, "The Lion King", was finally completed, but when they were selling this work around the world, they suddenly discovered that almost all cinemas around the world closed their doors to them.

Because, at this time, "Brave Heart" is being released worldwide!

According to the early contract signed by the Eurasian Film Union, all films produced by companies should be opened to members as soon as they are not released in their own company.

It is according to this agreement that although "Brave Heart" ended its post-production one day later than "The Lion King", it got the right to broadcast the theaters early!

The Commonwealth countries, formerly France's sphere of influence, European theaters, Japanese theaters, and Hong Kong theaters, all introduced "Brave Heart" in accordance with the agreement and were released simultaneously around the world!

And according to this agreement, even if they think the worst "Farewell My Concubine" can be ahead of them and occupy the cinema line!

Hollywood is almost madly angry with this news!

They are going to be released, but Europe is out of the blue, and the same is true for Japan and Hong Kong in Asia. Taiwan, Southeast Asia and South Korea are also following two markets.

The only playback place for Hollywood is in the United States!

Or, a few African countries can...

The Hollywood boss was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, but he had no choice. They wanted to pay compensation for these theaters, but when they saw the compensation figures of the contract, their eyes widened.

Pay compensation according to the numbers above. When they get the broadcast rights of theaters, they can directly close the door and go bankrupt.

what to do?

Only by waiting for those Eurasian big production movies to be released and the theaters are vacant, can our own films be played. Otherwise, even if they are being released, as long as the seven Eurasian movies are completed post-production, these theaters can be asked to sprinkle Hollywood films and play their films at any time.

Even though Hollywood movie giants roared and roared, they could only suppress their anger.

Their films were filmed one after another. The post-production was extremely exquisite, but they could only focus on the film library first and wait for the original Eurasian Film League film to be released.

Finally, by the beginning of 1993, the Eurasian Film Union, which made them so angry that they were about to suffer a cerebral hemorrhage, had all seven films filmed. Hollywood hurriedly sent staff to contact these theaters to negotiate broadcast contracts.

A heavy hammer hit the center of their foreheads!

European film companies where they cooperated with have long discussed the movie playback contract.

They also have the right to issue globally. They have been recognized by Hollywood and can also compete fairly on a global scale!

Hollywood movie giant smashed the table!

This is *** fair competition! These European film companies assisted each other and first seized the Commonwealth, French sphere of influence, Hong Kong, Japan, and European theaters. This is still the same - if they want to show it, they can only be in their own country, ah, and they also have to add some African and Latin American countries...

Just as they were vomiting blood, the masterpieces carefully created by Hollywood were actually in the United States. Under their noses, they were officially broadcast to the American public!

And these theaters broadcasted are all new theaters built in the latest year.

This is based on the early agreement. All the income from selling discs was spent on building new cinemas in the United States to break the Hollywood monopoly.

There are not many theaters, so it is too expensive to build a comprehensive theater in the United States. Xiao Qiang tried his best to save money, and could only build one or two theaters in major cities in the United States. It is far from being a "cinema" and at most it is "academic station".

But that's enough.

Now, the monopoly has been broken!

The promotion of new Hollywood films has lasted for more than a year. Even blind and deaf people know that Hollywood has invested heavily in carefully creating seven masterpieces.

These cinemas, which belong to the former Eurasian Film Alliance, and Universal Corporation owns 30% of the shares, were broadcasting new films at the beginning, and American audiences who had long been eager to see flocked to the cinemas like a tide.

Globally, those fans who are looking forward to seeing new Hollywood films also feasted on their eyes and praised Hollywood's strength.

At this point, what else can the Hollywood movie giants do?

They had no other choice but to beat their chests and stamp their feet, and to unite with Xiao Qiang and swear at them, and they also hated Xiao Qiang to the core.

Every step of others is to follow the law. Can you say they are illegal?

The global distribution rights are the land Hollywood agrees to share with European film companies. Can you accuse him of running away in violation of regulations?

The film markets of the two countries are open to each other, and Hollywood personally promised that you can demolish the newly built cinema of Xiao Qiang and the Film Alliance? Have their movie screens burned?

They did not dare to delay for a second and immediately distributed the copies in the warehouse to the whole of the United States.

It is also good to be able to recover a little loss.

There is no hope for the global market. If even the American film market is snatched away by Xiao Qiang and the Eurasian Film Alliance theaters, they will have no other way except to jump into the sea!

Seven movies. Each one is a big investment and high-quality production.

But when the Hollywood giants counted their income, they didn't even have the strength to cry.

The global market is not left at all, and it is all divided by the Eurasian Film Alliance... I was wrong, and I forgot that there are still several small countries in Africa, which are not within the sphere of influence of Britain, France, Germany and Italy. Therefore, Hollywood still has several thousand dollars in income there...

Loss of money, serious loss. Although it doesn’t mean that the old money has been lost, this time, Hollywood suffered a crushing defeat!

This is really a slaughter of the city, and it slaughtered a river of blood!

When European film companies proposed this year's cooperation plan, Hollywood movie giants almost lost their control ability and took out their guns to sieve their opponents!

Even those real fencers were firmly rejected by Hollywood.

Cooperation, cooperation is OK!

Global issuance rights?

I'll punch you, and you can get as far as you are. Let's talk about the global issuance rights, be careful that I'll be crazy and my relatives don't recognize you!

All Eurasian film companies, whether they were voluntarily or forced, gathered together again. This time, the Eurasian Film Union was more organized.

After more than a year of running-in, the backbone of the alliance has long been integrated and formed.

Together with Universal Corporation, they formed the alliance board.

As for the other fenceists, they have become the forces around the alliance, contributing to the provision of theaters, directors and actors. Of course, the alliance will also give sufficient rewards based on their contributions.

With the past year of cooperation with Hollywood, major European film companies have not only made a fortune, but also gained a more intuitive understanding of the appreciation and acceptance of American audiences. They have also learned about the techniques they are good at.
Chapter completed!
