The Liar Who Invaded the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 753: Yankee's Mind

"Mr. George, Ms. Debbie, I'm Mai Xiaoyu, a cute film and television movie. I'm glad to meet both of you."

When Mai Xiaoyu called out his name, and then looked at the script in front of him, there was a flash of astonishment on both George and Debbie's faces.

They came this time without intending to disclose their identities. They thought that they had read the script of "Magic Land and Wizardry" first, and then decided on the next plan based on the pros and cons of the script.

"Unexpectedly, I was so famous in China."

George smiled, pushed the script to Debbie, and at the same time took over the right to negotiate.

"You misunderstood, it is our homework that we have done enough. At present, we have the information about your senior management, producers, and screenwriters in Los Angeles."

George: "..."

Debbie: "..."

Mai Xiaoyu continued to smile and said: "Although the cute person is small, but Hualong Pictures has a deep background. Not only in China, but also in the United States, there are many relationships, otherwise the copyright of "Twilight City" will not be obtained."

"It can be seen, that's why I wondered why they appeared when we met. Could it be that you are afraid?"

"Because I am one of the shareholders of Hualong Pictures, the two films Hualong Pictures also have investments and are responsible for overseas sales. You Disney cut our financial path for no reason, are you afraid that we will also cut your financial path?"

"I don't think you have this ability."

"Not in the United States, but what about China? Negotiations on the East China Sea are almost at a critical juncture, right? There is also Hong Kong Disneyland. Are there any safety hazards in the amusement facilities inside? Do you need to stop for inspection?"

"You threaten us?"

"I'm stating the facts. Since the opening of Hong Kong Disneyland, how many failures have occurred in the amusement facilities, don't I need to list them all?"

"I don't understand the operation of theme parks. Shouldn't we talk about movies?"

"Of course we have to talk about movies, but isn't your company's responsibility to build a well-known brand for the entire Disney Kingdom through movies?"

"Are Huaxia people as despicable as you?" Disney's legal counsel suddenly interjected.

"E, despicable? Did you mean me?" Mai Xiaoyu took out his phone and patted on the table, "I would like to ask, I came with sincerity to resolve my misunderstanding with your company. But I just arrived at Los Angeles Airport. , I was treated as a terrorist by the fbi and tortured in the small black room... What a shame, who is despicable!"

Ye Chu, Eva and others at the scene suddenly realized that only Shi Hao had a weird face, holding a smile as hard as he could, and casting his heart on the five bodies that Mai Xiaoyu admired.

It's so special!

"Mr. Mai, we need to know what you are negotiating with Disney."

"If you don't want to suffer, I suggest you better cooperate with us."

"His suggestion is good, otherwise you may be refused entry or thrown into jail."

"I promise you will regret it in that case."

...

In the video, the words of the four fbi agents made George frowned.

George doesn't care about fbi torturing Mai Xiaoyu, but fbi cares so much about the content of negotiations between his side and the cute person, which makes him think more.

"I regret such an unpleasant experience, but I must clarify that we will not do this kind of thing."

"Isn't there anyone else? Who would be so interested in the content of our talks, and even get fbi to scare me?"

Yeah, who would it be?

If you can master Mai Xiaoyu's flight, and also find fbi to come forward, the other party must have a lot of backing, who is it?

At this time, Debbie had read the script outline and character biographies, and said: "Mr. Mak, with all due respect, the names of the characters in this script are more like Westerners' names, and we only grant your company the right to make Chinese adaptations. From this point of view, your company has been in the heart of infringement since the adaptation of the script."

"You are misunderstood, this book is a US version, and the character names naturally take the lives of Westerners."

"U.S. Edition?"

"Bingo! Our adaptation of "The Wizard of Oz" can be regarded as the prequel of "The Wizard of Oz", but it avoids the problem of film copyright. For example, we canceled the classic "Yellow Brick Road", and that road was set to follow. The mood changes; there is also the famous "ruby shoes", we changed back to silver, because the original is silver..."

The US legal provisions are very detailed, and the same is true for copyright.

"The Wizard of Oz" comes first, and "The Wizard of Oz" must be careful to avoid all possible infringement details.

The script is not only "Yellow Brick Road" and "Ruby Shoes", but also the appearance and name of the evil Western witch, the flying monkey in "The Wizard of Oz", the appearance of Manchijin, etc.

Because of Warner's "The Wizard of Oz" movie copyright, the adaptation of the movie script "The Adventures of Oz" is extremely difficult. Compared with the general script creation, the time, energy, cost, manpower, and material resources invested in the script of "Magic Land and Wizardry" are more than ten times or even dozens of times more. It is an extremely vast project.

In some places, lawyers who are good at copyright are required to join in, compare with "The Wizard of Oz" ~lightnovelpub.net~, and then determine whether it is suspected of infringement.

According to Mai Xiaoyu, it took a year and a half for Ah Zheng to create the script of "The Wonders of the Devil". During this period, Mengren invested heavily in film and television, just to ensure that there would be no copyright disputes.

His words are not exaggerated. It is true in the strange dream, but he copied it from the strange dream, so there is no investment, and there is no Chinese version.

George and Debbie didn't doubt his statement. Disney knew how difficult it was to adapt "The Adventures of Oz". When I sold the right to adapt the Chinese language to Mengren, I had the idea of ​​using Mengren to test the waters.

All beginnings are hard.

If Mengren really solves the problem of copyright, then if "Magic Land and Wizardry" has a good box office, the second, three, four, five, sixty-seven can be continued according to this routine, just shoot it casually!

The full movie version of "The Wizard of Oz" in Warner's hands is not a barrier... Warner?

Could it be that the fbi of the airport...

George, with his brains wide open, felt that he had figured out something.

He glanced at Debbie, who continued to look through the script, and he asked Mai Xiaoyu with great interest: "Why do you think we will agree? Can't we shoot it ourselves?"

"It's boring to say that. The difficulty and cost of adapting "The Adventures of Oz" are very high, and I have a deep understanding of it. I guarantee that you can adapt it yourself and it will not be as effective as your cooperation. And I have already registered this script in the United States. Copyright, if your future adaptations infringe our copyrights, we will go to court. In addition, if you disagree, I can go to Warner to discuss cooperation."

"Warner?" George smiled faintly, "Who do you think is asking fbi to deal with you at the airport?"

Mai Xiaoyu laughed secretly in her heart: "Could it be... it doesn't matter, there are no eternal friends and enemies, only eternal interests, right?"
