The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 257 Disney Copy My Script

Li Shengyao and Han Sanping came to a corner of the hall together. There was a small table here, and the two of them sat facing each other.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Li Shengyao then stated the purpose of this trip.

Han Sanping's eyes widened upon hearing this, and she looked at Li Shengyao in disbelief.

"You said... You said that you wrote the script of "Pirates of the Caribbean" and registered it a few years ago. Disney remade it this year, which is exactly the same as the script written by you. You suspect that they plagiarized."

In order to determine whether his presence disrupted Disney's filming content, Li Shengyao asked someone to go to Hong Kong Island to watch "Pirates of the Caribbean", which was indeed exactly the same as what he had seen in his previous life.

In other words, Disney "copied" his script.

Li Shengyao was too lazy to act, he nodded, "Mr. Han, I have registered with the Beautiful Country Screenwriters Guild and the Copyright Bureau. I still have the original text, but it is useless. Disney just plagiarized it."

Han Sanping glanced at the wine glass. It was pure red wine with a strong taste, definitely not fake wine.

But if it wasn't fake wine, this matter would be too mysterious.

So surprising.

Too illusory.

Li Shengyao is so awesome that he can write a movie script like "Pirates of the Caribbean".

"Pirates of the Caribbean" has not yet entered the mainland, but it has been screened in the beautiful country and the corner of Hong Kong Island, and the box office has a good reputation.

Many people thought that this would be a new blockbuster movie, and that Disney could make a series of movies, but they never expected it to be plagiarized.

Still copy the domestic guide.

"Director Li, do you have any thoughts?"

With Li Shengyao's current status, if he can really produce evidence to make this matter a big deal, then Radio and Television will definitely stand by Li Shengyao's side, and "Pirates of the Caribbean" will never enter the mainland.

So what did Li Shengyao ask him for?
Li Shengyao leaned back and ordered the table, "I don't want to completely fall out with Disney, I want to sell half of the copyright of "Pirates of the Caribbean" to China Film for 1 yuan. increased the box office revenue of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series in the Mainland."

China Film has been engaged in the distribution of imported films, and they have long been in contact with Disney.

Naturally, Li Shengyao could make trouble on his own, but that would not only be lonely, but also low-end.

He is Director Li, not a cursing shrew.

And it is inconsistent with the current environment.

Although Disney is a company in the beautiful country, its weight is very important. At this time, the mainland actually wants to cooperate with Disney.

After all, Disneyland is an important symbol of a local economic development.

Wanwan Seoul wanted to introduce Disneyland for many years, but they never agreed.

Shanghai already has an idea, and Disney has been considering it.

Li Shengyao considered it comprehensively, and still felt that it would be best to cooperate with China Film Group and let China Film Group contact them.

China Film Group has a lot of weight, and there was a commotion. China Film Group stood in front and Li Shengyao stood behind. He didn't need to bear too much pressure.

As for the benefits distributed to China Film, it should be regarded as public welfare.

Han Sanping's brain turned sharply, and he quickly understood Li Shengyao's thoughts. He looked at Li Shengyao in surprise.

If it were any other young man, he might have exploded long ago.

He jumped up and asked Guo Jia to take responsibility for him, but it was rare for Li Shengyao to be so calm.

China Film has always been in touch with Disney. This time "Pirates of the Caribbean" was introduced to the mainland. If there is no accident, China Film must have helped release it.

Han Sanping knows the benefits of this movie. If she can really get the profits from the mainland, if Disney makes several movies in a row, it may be hundreds of millions of funds.

It's like Disney working for them.

With so much money, it is impossible not to help.

The little brother has been wronged, and he must seek justice.

Han Sanping asked: "Director Li, have you brought the original script and the evidence of registration in Beautiful Country?"

"Of course I did, my assistant is waiting outside."

"Okay, let him send it over, and I'll call a few more people over."

Li Shengyao's evidence was in the assistant's briefcase, and Han Sanping called in a few senior executives of China Film Group and people who could speak English.

Not long after, several high-level executives from China Film Group came over. They saw Lee Shengyao's registered copyright materials and the English manuscript of "Pirates of the Caribbean". They heard that Lee Shengyao was willing to sell half of the copyright to them for 1 yuan. My lord, the righteous traitors are really hateful, they plagiarized our works, and they didn't even say hello.

Subsequently, a contract was signed, expressing that it would issue a just protest to Disney.

Just as Han Sanping and the others were about to leave in high spirits, Li Shengyao grabbed Han Sanping, and then took out the dividend income contract of "Chain Saw".

Speaking of "Chain Saw", half of the dividend proceeds were also sold to China Film for 1 yuan.

"Chain Saw" only invested more than 100 million yuan, and Han Sanping and the others didn't think this movie could make money.

But, Li Shengyao gave them such a big benefit, it's nothing to have an extra "Chain Saw", it's only 1 yuan, it can be regarded as giving Li Dao face.

Anyway, Disney has to fight, is it still afraid of a little Lionsgate?

"Director Li, don't worry about this matter. Whether it's "Saw" or "Pirates of the Caribbean", we will deal with it seriously and will never let you be wronged."

"Okay, Director Han, I believe in China Film's ability."

Han Sanping thought of some rumors about Li Shengyao, and thought that Li Shengyao could write a movie script like "Pirates of the Caribbean", so she couldn't help asking: "Director Li, do you plan to make movies in the future?"

"Shoot, next year or next year."

"When the time comes, don't forget about our China Film Group. I'm here to assure you that we can invest."

Director Li Dao, who can write the script of "Pirates of the Caribbean", should not be bad in making movies.

Han Sanping thinks she can try it.

"Okay, we'll talk about it later."

Han Sanping nodded, and then led a group of senior executives of China Film Group to leave in a hurry.

Han Sanping was involved in the communication between the senior executives of China Film Group and Li Shengyao, so naturally she couldn't hide it from the others present.

The big and small kings were stunned, and looked at Li Shengyao in confusion.

Feng Xiaogang still had some anger in his eyes.

It can't be to make big news and steal the limelight from "Mobile Phone".

It was Zhang Guoli who had reacted, and walked over with a glass of wine, "Director Li, you are..."

"We have some cooperation with China Film Group." Li Shengyao understood the concerns of everyone in Huayi, "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with internal entertainment, and we won't make big news."

Regarding this matter, China Film Group will talk to Disney. Disney probably won’t want to expose it.

If Li Shengyao was a beautiful Chinese, he would naturally be able to suppress him.

But now that Li Shengyao is in China, and he is also united with China Film Group, it is hard to say.

"Mobile" can be released for more than a month. During this time, there will be no hype about Lee Sung Yew and Disney.

Everyone in Huayi breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this.

Feng Xiaogang raised his wine glass and toasted Li Shengyao, calling him brother.

Only the big and small Wang were a little worried. They knew that Li Shengyao was going to enter the film industry, and they had just joined China Film under their noses. It was difficult.
