This director only makes bad movies.

Chapter 354 Xu Nan did it

The turmoil on the Internet actually has little impact on the parties involved.

Although netizens generally sympathize with Cameron, this kind of sympathy is meaningless to him, and there is no way to reverse the embarrassing situation Cameron is facing.

"What do the three major theaters say?" Cameron asked his assistant again, no longer the arrogance before, only anxiety.

"The theater said that they are still investigating and it will take time." The assistant said hesitantly.

Cameron frowned and said, "What about the release of the movie? The fake movie has been exposed for so long. Why are they still releasing this movie?"

"This... theater said that it will take time to adjust." The assistant said helplessly.

Cameron was angry: "It's nothing more than a matter of changing copies. It will take time. What do the theaters want to do? Do they not want to release my movie?"

Cameron's voice was loud, almost like a growl. The assistant didn't dare to speak when he saw that Cameron was really angry, and stood silently by the side.

After Cameron vented his anger, he felt a lot better. Seeing the assistant's reserved expression, he knew that this matter had nothing to do with him, so he waved his hand.

"Continue to contact the theaters, no matter what, let them change the source of the film and change it to my film."

"Okay." The assistant quickly left the room as if he had been pardoned.

Cameron sighed on the spot, and sat down on the boss's chair, his brows almost wrinkled into a word.

The current situation is so difficult that he doesn't know what to do?
The three major theater chains have been delaying not to release his movies, only showing fake movies. Cameron urged him several times, and he even contacted the bosses of the three major theater chains, but all he got was perfunctory answers. .

You know, the three major movie theaters occupy 80.00% of the US film market. As long as they insist on not showing Cameron's movies, it is equivalent to losing 80.00% of the box office.

The total cost of Cameron's movie is about [-] million U.S. dollars, excluding overseas box office and other income, the U.S. box office needs at least [-] to [-] million dollars to make money.

However, the upper limit of the box office in the United States is only about [-] billion U.S. dollars. In the case that the three major theaters do not show his movies, the box office limit of Cameron's movies is only [-] billion U.S. dollars.

This is still calculated in the best case, but under normal circumstances, this box office is almost impossible to achieve.

The key is the three theaters. If they insist on not showing the movie, Cameron will inevitably lose money on this movie. Even if the overseas box office and other income are added, it is impossible to make money in the end.

You know, Cameron invested most of his net worth in this movie. If he loses money in the end, he won't be in debt, but he will definitely lose a lot of money.

Under such circumstances, Cameron completely lost his previous composure and was extremely anxious.

Everyone has a psychology of aversion to loss, especially a big director like Cameron, who is at the top, can't accept his own failure, especially in such a ridiculous and funny way.

So he urgently needs the three major theaters to release his movies.

But the problem is that the three major theaters just disagree and have been delaying.

This is where things stalled.

Although Cameron signed a contract with the three major theaters, allowing them to pay liquidated damages, he dared not do that at all.

After the film was released, it only took a few days to reap the box office. If Cameron chose to file a lawsuit with the three major theaters, he would not be able to afford the time alone, not to mention whether he could win the fight.

From preparing materials to appealing to closing the case, this process will take a few months. By then, the day lily will be cold, and even if the movie is released in theaters again, the audience will not be able to go to the theater to watch the movie.

In fact, Cameron’s loss is already huge now. It has been three days since the movie was released, and he has lost at least [-] to [-] million US dollars in box office, and as time goes by, his loss is getting bigger and bigger. bigger and bigger.

But Cameron was helpless.

At this moment, the door opened, and the manager of Cameron Company hurried in.

"Boss, there is good news. I know who the director of the fake movie is?"

Anyone who walks by will leave traces. Although Xu Nan has done a good job of keeping secrets, but when the whole world is curious, he still has no way to keep keeping secrets, and was caught by someone.

Cameron showed surprise, and immediately asked, "Which bastard is it?"

The manager immediately said: "It's the Huaxia director Xu Nan. I heard this from a high-level executive of the Emperor Cinemas. It's highly credible, and there's also evidence from netizens on the Internet."

Cameron gritted his teeth: "It turned out to be him."

Xu Nan was originally the object of his suspicion. The manager just said it without looking at the evidence, and Cameron immediately believed it.

Only this shameless Chinese director can do such a thing.

Cameron unconsciously thought of the time when Xu Nan tweeted that his movie would be released on the same day as "Titanic 2". At that time, Xu Nan didn't mention the name of his movie. I want to play Pingci and want to deceive the audience, so I don't report the name of the movie.

Now he finally understands that Xu Nan deliberately did not report the name of the movie in order to pass off the fake movie as the real one.

This is no longer Pengci, it's pure fraud.

Thinking about the day of the premiere, this bastard pretended to be a fanatic fan and performed in front of him, Cameron was so angry that his liver hurt.

The most exasperating thing is that he actually believed it foolishly.

What a shame, what a shame.

IQ is simply completely crushed by the opponent.

The strong sense of shame made Cameron flush with shame. If Xu Nan appeared in front of him at this time, Cameron would definitely bite him hard, so as to calm down.

"Immediately publish this matter on the Internet and let netizens know."

"Pay attention to the words you use when posting messages, stand on the victim's side, be pitiful, let netizens sympathize with us, and facilitate public opinion pressure."

"Also, send a lawyer's letter to Xu Nan, asking him to remove the movie immediately and compensate us for all the losses, otherwise, we will sue him in court."

Cameron said angrily.

"Okay boss, I'll do it now." The manager nodded: "By the way, if you send a lawyer's letter, what crime should you use?"

Cameron froze for a moment.

Yes ah, what charges?

Plagiarism!

No, although the plot of the fake movie is very similar to "Titanic", it is not up to the standard of plagiarism.

In this regard, Cameron is very professional. He knows that Xu Nan's behavior does not meet the standard of plagiarism. If he sues for plagiarism, he will definitely lose the case.

"Infringement." Cameron suddenly said, "Sue Xu Nan for infringement. The name of our movie is "Titanic 2", and his fake movie has the same name. This is a serious infringement."

"If Xu Nan doesn't take the movie off the shelves and compensate for the loss, I will sue him for bankruptcy."
