Chapter 1098 Oscar's Kindness
"I'm convinced. I've never encountered such a shameless thing in my life!" Sitting at the premiere of "Pokemon Rockia's Birth", Boss Jia complained to Jon Landao beside him angrily.
This time, 21st Century Fox is still one of the publishers of "Pokemon", so Jon Landao, as the person with the best relationship with Boss Jia in the entire company, naturally attended the premiere as a representative.
For this matter, Boss Jia has been angry for several days, but what Boss Jia did not expect was that after listening to Boss Jia’s complaints, Jon Landao said incrediblely, "This kind of thing should be impossible. How could Koreans do such shameless things?"
"What, Mr. Lan Dao, do you think I will lie for such a thing?" Boss Jia was a little unhappy.
"Of course not!" Jon Randao shook his head and said, "I just think this is a bit different from what I knew before. In fact, I have also handled some copyright disputes and conflicts on behalf of the company and South Korea."
"Generally speaking, you don't even need a lawyer's letter. As long as a document from our company is sent, South Korea will immediately send an apology letter, correct the mistakes, and guarantee that it will never make similar mistakes again. Some companies will take the initiative to give compensation. I have never met such shameless things as Mr. Jia, you said. I never thought that these Koreans have such a shameless side!" Jon Landao said incredible.
"Haha, that's because you are an American, 21st Century Fox is also an American company. South Korea is you Americans who keep a dog, so of course you dare not disobey!" Boss Jia curled his lips and complained inadvertently.
But the next second, Boss Jia's eyes lit up, as if he had an idea in his mind.
"But Mr. Jia, don't you think today's premiere is a bit deserted compared to the last time?" Jon Landao suddenly said meaningfully.
"Yes!" Boss Jia's face turned dark again. This time, there were much fewer guests who came to participate in "Pokemon Rockia's Birth" than in the previous two times.
It is normal to have fewer people attending the premiere of "Titanic". After all, "Titanic" has such fierce publicity in the early stage, and it is a foregone conclusion that it has won a huge box office. Celebrities are willing to join in the fun.
As for sequels like "Pokemon", it is generally impossible for the guest lineup to surpass "Titanic".
But this time, it was even less than the number of guests in "Pokemon Super Dream's Counterattack", which was very strange.
You should know that when the counterattack of Super Dream was released, Daqian was still a completely newcomer in the American film industry. All the guests were basically for the sake of 21st Century Fox, but even so, all the guests with identities combined, there were about 50 people.
But this time, less than twenty people with identities were even 20, and most of them were guests under 21st Century Fox and Daqian themselves. This is equivalent to almost the entire Hollywood circle, and they directly ignored the invitation to Daqian’s premiere. This is an extremely abnormal thing.
You know, the current "Pokemon Nozia's Birth" has the first global box office of $700 million as a guarantee. No matter how pessimistic a person is, he probably has a global box office of $300 million. Logically speaking, there are many Hollywood people who have reached the premiere of this movie to show their presence and the favorability of movies that have made a thousand movies. How could they become deserted all of a sudden?
"You really don't know?" Jon Landao looked at Boss Jia curiously. Boss Jia nodded, and Jon Landao said, "Okay, don't say I told you, the Oscar committee has spoken secretly. Whoever dares to support you will not have any relationship with Oscars within three years!" Jon Landao.
"That's the old man, I have nothing to do with Oscars in my life. I don't care about these things. Otherwise, no one who is a little disappointed with Oscars will dare to get close to you!" Jon Landau said with a cowardly shoulder and said, "It's okay for you to be an animated movie. The Harry Potter movie you are planning to shoot may have encountered a lot of trouble recently!"
"Oscar Committee!" Boss Jia was stunned for a moment, then remembered the scene of his angrily leaving at the Oscars ceremony, and said in disbelief, "These guys actually hold such revenge!"
"Please, you are the first person to leave the Oscar scene. In addition, you are not American, so of course they will hit you!" Jon Randao sighed and said, "If you want me to say, you might as well be embarrassed. In an interview with the media, I would like to express my apology for the first time when I left the scene, and then donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Oscar committee. It would be almost the same. They would not always be unable to get along with a big boss like you!"
"Do you think this is something I can do?" Boss Jia rolled his eyes and thought about it, then nodded. "Since that's the case, it doesn't matter. Anyway, Oscars can't really affect the box office of a commercial blockbuster. As for the premiere, it's all fun and has no other intentions."
"Just just ignore them, just think these guys don't exist!" Jon Landau comforted. Indeed, as long as you don't take it seriously, it's useless.
"Then they won't ignore me directly, right?" Boss Jia suddenly thought of something and asked with his eyes narrowed.
"I don't know!" Jon Landau was stunned for a moment, and then said, "In theory, your "Titanic" is unparalleled in art, and it is probably difficult to find a movie that can surpass Titanic in love. And in terms of business, the global box office of 2.4 billion US dollars is not known how many years it will take for someone to break it, so "Titanic" should naturally sweep all the Oscar awards!"
"But I don't know how much the people on the Oscar side hate you now, so I advise you to accept it, otherwise the grand prize you won may be gone!"
"They dare!" Boss Jia raised his tone and showed a cold expression and said, "If they dare to hack my "Titanic", I will let the Oscar disappear from this world!"
"Oh, okay, just be happy!" Jon Landao was timid and obviously regarded Boss Jia's words as farts. How could the top American awards like the Oscars disappear directly? That is, just talking anger.
With the conversation between the two, the premiere soon entered the official stage of release. Because they had discovered in advance that there were insufficient number of people who agreed to attend the premiere, in addition to the stars who came to attend the premiere, there were more than 200 loyal fans of "Pokemon" born through the lottery, and they would accompany Boss Jia to watch the movie.
So before the movie started, the whole scene was not so quiet. Many fans were excitedly watching the main creators of the movie. Of course, they were more guessing about the plot of the movie this time, and what happened to Lochia, who suddenly appeared in the name of the movie.
