This director only makes bad movies.

Chapter 322 You Are a Fraud

Xu Nan was a little surprised when he received a call from Lin Ziyi.

He was about to call Lin Ziyi, but Lin Ziyi unexpectedly came to him on his own initiative.

Xu Nan answered the phone: "What's the matter?"

Lin Ziyi's slightly hoarse voice came from the phone: "Are you interested in copying a movie about Pengci?"

Xu Nan raised his brows, guessing in his heart, but his voice was deliberately suspicious: "Which movie?"

Lin Ziyi said: "Titanic 2."

Xu Nan laughed, it was really this movie.

Seeing Lin Ziyi calling him, he had a guess in his heart, but he didn't expect it to come true.

Isn't that a coincidence?

Xu Nan was very willing in his heart, and his voice remained calm: "That's Cameron, and it's the sequel of Da Chuan."

Lin Ziyi smiled: "What about Cameron?"

Cameron has a high status in the industry, so Lin Ziyi never thought of letting Xu Nan touch his movies before, and she even considered persuading Xu Nan to keep a low profile and don't play dead.

Touching others is fine, but touching Cameron can easily arouse public anger.

But look at the conditions proposed by Cameron.

Fuck Cameron, you are the one who touches porcelain.

I really think the theater has lost its temper, right?

Lin Ziyi has already made up her mind that when the movie is released, she will specially arrange the midnight and underworld scenes for Cameron's movies.

Then arrange Xu Nan's Porcelain movie at a good time and a good location, specifically to disgust Cameron.

This is the fate of provoking theaters.

Xu Nan's voice was very hesitant: "Ziyi, I'm not questioning you, I just think the risk is too great."

"Other movies, if you touch porcelain, you will touch porcelain, but this movie is different."

"This is Cameron, and this movie is also a sequel to the big boat, and audiences around the world are eagerly looking forward to it."

"Then you let me touch porcelain, it's too risky."

Xu Nan's voice hesitated, as if he really thought so in his heart.

And his words are very convincing, after all, this is Cameron.

"I'm afraid of you." Lin Ziyi couldn't help but swear: "How many movies have you touched in China, and in the United States, the three giants of Fox, Warner, and Paramount have been touched by you in turn? , Now you tell me that you don’t dare anymore, what did you do earlier.”

"That's different." Xu Nan's voice contained a trace of grievance: "Cameron is different from others. If it were another director, would he dare to demand 50.00% of the box office share from your theater?"

"If the netizens know that I dare to touch Ci, the god of directors in their minds, they will not come up with a black gun, which will open my mind."

"Don't talk to me about this, just tell me whether you want to make a film or not. If you don't, I'll find someone else to make a film. Emperor Cinemas also has a film and television company. It's not that they can't make movies."

Xu Nan sighed, reluctantly saying: "Since you have said so, then I can't do it anymore. Anyway, I am also the originator of this type of film. If I am timid, I can't justify it."

"Where are you now, I'll find you."

Lin Ziyi reported her address, then hung up the phone.

As soon as the phone was hung up, Xu Nan smiled.

It was as if he had just dozed off when someone gave him a pillow. After the filming was over, he was struggling with how to communicate with the theaters so that they could be screened. Unexpectedly, Lin Ziyi took the initiative to call him.

During this period of time, he has also heard about the conflict between the theater and Cameron, and even this matter has been spread on the Internet. It is conceivable how fierce the struggle between the two sides is.

No need to think about it, the theater must have been annoyed by Cameron's haughty attitude, that's why Lin Ziyi called him and offered him to touch porcelain.

The attitudes of the other two theaters are estimated to be similar, and they are also very angry with Cameron.

This is good news for him, giving him room to display.

Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for his film to enter the theaters.

But now the theaters have a lot of opinions on Cameron, and it is probably not a problem to go to the theaters. Maybe the theaters will take the initiative to arrange additional films for his copycat Pengci movie, specifically to disgust Cameron.

It is even possible for his plan to confuse the fake with the real one.

What about Cameron?
You are the one who touches porcelain.

Xu Nan took the edited movie with him, as well as a series of documents such as the film and television adaptation rights of the Titanic, and drove to the headquarters of Emperor Cinemas.

Soon, he met Lin Ziyi in the president's office.

"Give me a quick word, do you want to shoot or not?" Lin Ziyi asked directly without politeness.

"There's no rush, you can read this first before we talk." Xu Nan took out the movie USB flash drive he had prepared.

There are equipment inside the Emperor Cinemas to watch movies directly, and the playback effect is also top-notch, no worse than a movie theater.

Lin Ziyi wanted to ask the company's executives to watch it together, but Xu Nan stopped her.

His plan must be kept strictly confidential. Once the news is leaked, it will not be able to achieve the desired effect.

The screen lights up, there is no logo of the film and television company, and there is no cast and crew list. The movie has entered the topic from the very beginning.

Seeing the familiar shoddy opening, the experienced Lin Ziyi's expression did not change.

As the boss of the theater chain, she has watched countless bad movies, and many knockoff movies, and such shoddy movies can't move her at all.

To put it bluntly, in terms of ugly, Shanzhai touches tiles are not ranked high.

But looking at it, her expression soon began to change.

Why is this plot so familiar?

With the progress of the movie, Lin Ziyi's expression began to change. When she saw the big ship named Titanic 2, she finally couldn't help it.

"Are you a copycat version of the Titanic?"

"Yes." Xu Nan nodded with a smile.

Lin Ziyi cast a sideways glance at Xu Nan: "You are too hypocritical. Before the phone call, 'This is Cameron, this is the sequel of Da Chuan' with a look of trepidation, but turned around and gave me a complete movie." Movie."

"You have already taken pictures together, just wait for me to see."

Xu Nan's expression remained unchanged: "I'm not here to test your determination, Cameron's status is not ordinary."

"Oh." Lin Ziyi snorted coldly.

Hypocrisy guy.

Obviously decided to touch Cameron early tomorrow, but it turned out to be this kind of reaction.

The plot of the movie continued. When seeing a man and a woman get on the boat and start to fall in love, and both men and women are ugly, Lin Ziyi felt that there was no need to watch it any longer.

She stood up.

"Why don't you continue watching, the content behind is very exciting." Xu Nan asked.

"Don't read it, as long as you know it's a knockoff of the Titanic, I'm not interested in the rest of it."

Lin Ziyi shook her head.

Not everyone likes copycats. In fact, there are only a few people who like this type of movie, and most people are still indifferent to this kind of movie.

Xu Nan regretfully closed the movie and pulled out the USB flash drive to avoid leaking the source of the movie.

"Pity."

This movie is the crystallization of his brainchild. If Cameron's Titanic extols freedom and love, then his movie is just the opposite, anti-freedom and anti-love, which contains his profound ideological connotation.

After all, he is also a director and has a desire to express himself.

For other films of Pengci, it is enough to shoot step by step, but for Cameron of Pengci, some specifications and grades must be added. The cost of this film even reached a record-breaking million dollars, which can be said to be a hemorrhage.

With such a high standard, it can be seen how much Xu Nan attaches importance to this movie.

It's a pity that Lin Ziyi didn't want to watch it.

When the two returned to the office, Lin Ziyi said directly, "I suggest you that this movie be released at the same time as Cameron."

"Don't worry, it won't affect your film schedule. I promise to maximize your film schedule. I can even persuade AMC theaters and Disney theaters to release your movie together, and I will also give you a good schedule."

Emperor Cinemas owns shares in Nanhai Film and Television, and Xu Nan and her are fellow villagers, so Lin Ziyi has no scruples about speaking.

Xu Nan smiled: "There is no rush for the release, I have an idea, you should listen to it first."

"You said."

"What do you think the name of my movie is "Titanic 2"? When it will be released at the same time as Cameron, the audience will not be able to tell which movie is which."

"You can even deliberately not let Cameron's "Titanic 2" be released, and only release my movie, so that Cameron will suffer a big loss."

Lin Ziyi's eyes lit up.

Xu Nan's idea is really too bold, just thinking about it makes him feel very exciting.

Come to think of it, Cameron is full of ambition, looking forward to his hard-working, hard-working film being released to rave reviews and box office hits.

But in fact, the movie shown in the theater was not his "Titanic 2" at all, but Xu Nan's copycat "Titanic 2".

The audience thought that what they saw was the classic masterpiece shot by Cameron, but what they actually saw was Xu Nan's copycat Porcelain.

This is not a kind of NTR.

But soon, Lin Ziyi shook her head.

"Impossible. The name Cameron has been registered long ago. Your movie name will not pass the review at all, and it will also break the law."

"Your trick won't work at all."

Xu Nan said in a deep voice: "You don't have to worry about the legal issues, I will solve them myself. As for the name registration, I am sure I can't handle it, but what if your three theaters join forces to help me?"

Lin Ziyi pondered: "The three major theaters teaming up, of course, is not a problem, but your idea is really too bold, it is simply a fraud."

Xu Nan smiled: "That's not the point. The point is that all three of your theaters are very dissatisfied with Cameron. He wants to increase the box office share, which is tantamount to harming the interests of the theaters."

"If others follow suit, wouldn't theaters lose a lot of money in the future?"

"Since this is the case, why don't you just keep doing it, come and kill the chickens to make an example to the monkeys, take Cameron's flag as a sacrifice, and let others see what the consequences of offending the theaters are."

Lin Ziyi frowned and thought.
