Seeing Pan Dong, the owner of Glory Film and Television, looked surly, the director Ignatius coughed specially.

“Mr. Pan.”

“Please tell me.” Pan Dong smiled even more.

“According to the extension agreement we temporarily added, the movie “Drifting City: Rise” should be released in three days.”

“Now, I decide…”

“Cancel your distribution rights.”

“Okay, I’ll get people to start the publicity work immediately…” Pan Dong said half of his words, his expression suddenly became stiff.

It took a few breaths before he was relieved, his eyes glared, and a thunderous roar, “Ignatius, what are you talking about?”

“I said, I decided to cancel your distribution rights.” Ignatius has leaned on the edge of the sofa at this moment, ready to get up at any time.

Are you surprised or surprised?

Ignatius was excited and nervous at the moment.

To be honest, he had long seen this partner a little unpleasant. This is not pleasing to the eye. Except for the director who made the film and the distributor who controlled the right to distribute the film, the identities of the two were naturally wrong.

Also mixed with some personal opinions.

He hates the unreasonable act of banning a movie at will for some self-interest.

Pan Dong had done something to Qingyu Media before, making Ignatius, who is also a director, the same enemy.

This time, his main purpose is to meet Ye Qing and discuss with him the release of the movie “Drifting City: Rise” in the virtual world. Taking the time to come to Hangzhou in person to refuse Pan Dong, naturally, it was to express sincerity to Ye Qing by offering flowers and offering Buddha.

“Are you… are you crazy?” Pan Dong’s expression was seriously distorted. He stood up and pressed forward to Ignatius’s side. How much is the compensation?”

Ignatius also stood up, guarding carefully, “Mr. Pan, please find out.”

“It is your breach of contract and industry spirit first.”

“We have repeatedly explained this point when we supplemented the extension of the release contract.”

“The reason belongs to the reason, and the contract belongs to the contract.” Where would Pan Dong believe this guy’s nonsense, his iron color, “Ignatius, I want to remind you. The distribution contract we signed is for your movie.” It was filed by the trade union.”

“Since I made this decision, I naturally thought about it before making the decision.”

Ignatius tugged his artistic beard, with a proud tone, “My lawyers have been commissioned, and I will wait for you to come to court.”

“I’m asking you one last time, are you sure that your choice can be approved by those investors?” Pan Dong tried to suppress his anger, he took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

“Mr. Ignatius, you have to figure it out.”

“Since last year, the Huaxia Film Market has become the only top box office market in the world that is comparable to the North American market.”

“If you change your mind and continue to cooperate, I can promise that the compensation for the extension of the screening due to your unilateral breach of contract can be put down.”

“If you choose not to cooperate, you will not only have to face the huge contractual damages. In Huaxia, you can’t find any distributor to distribute your movie, so you will lose the entire Huaxia market box office.”

“Have you ever calculated that the compensation and box office exceeded 500 million US dollars.”

This is a threat and a fact.

Glory Television wants to release this movie, it must be distributed to every domestic theater.

In addition to Glory Film and Television, the entire upstream distributors that own theaters also participated in the box office profit sharing.

Doesn’t Ignatius tearing up the contract mean smashing their jobs in China?

“Please talk to my lawyer about the contract compensation, Mr. Pan, anyway, I have accepted the right of distribution.”

Ignatius slapped the beer belly, his face was broken and the can was broken, and his expression was indifferent, “How do you like to deal with the following things, it doesn’t matter to me.”

Pan Dong panicked, completely panicked.

He is an insider. Of course, he knows what kind of legal procedures must be gone through when partners really intend to get the compensation from them, especially this kind of contract project involving international film and television cooperation. .

In order to promote the movie “Drifting City: The Rise”, their honorary film and television set up 300 million yuan in the initial publicity fee.

These are the real money flows, and the glory of the film and television industry is not fake, but they eat this bowl of rice in the film and television industry, who would be so wide as to use their own money to operate the product?

Of course, it is to make a cake for the box office profit of the late movie, and bring in other powerful distributors together and take the risk together.

In addition to separating the box office risks, if we have money, everyone can earn a firm foothold in this industry.

Otherwise, why would people take out their own national cinema chains and release movies for you?

Now the cake is directly lost by Glory Film and Television, and they directly lost more than 100 million in distribution costs, and incidentally pitted their entire peers.

Perceiving Ignatius’ resolute attitude, Pan Dong’s face was blue and white, “Mr. Ignatius, this matter…we can discuss it again, we can really discuss it.”

Ignatius’ tone was as indestructible as an iron hammer, “I still said that. If you want to discuss it, go to my lawyer.”

After that, he slipped out of the living room without even saying hello.

He still has to fly to China. How can there be so much time in the United States to watch Pan Dong be desperate.

As soon as Ignatius left his front foot, there was an overwhelming roar in the living room on his back foot, and the sound of a teacup being broken on the coffee table.

…

I don’t know how long it took for Pan Dong to wake up from his anger, never thought of it.

He just met with the two bosses of Namei Pictures and Xinli World to discuss how to get justice from Ignatius.

result……

The movie “Drifting City: Rise” was announced overwhelmingly.

The time is three days later.

The screening location is a virtual theater with holographic glasses.

Not only the users who have been eager to watch the movie were stunned, they thought that the posters in the cinema nearby had been posted for more than a month.

Why did it become a virtual theater again?

Even Pan Dong, Wei Zhixiang, the director of Namei Films, and Xinli World’s boss, Xinwei, were completely stunned.

What operation is this…?

Pan Dong is no longer angry at this moment, he is incredible to the limit, “Ignatius has a problem with his brain?”

“Didn’t his lawyers tell him that after they unilaterally breached the contract and withdrew the distribution rights, it would be impossible to get the movie to be released in China before the lawsuit was settled?”

“Or do they naively think that they can be released without the Dragon Mark?”

Wei Zhixiang, the head of Namei Pictures, has similar expressions. According to the truth, Ignatius can’t get the dragon mark.

“This thing is too magical, I don’t believe that the giant beast industry has this ability.” Xinli World’s boss Wu Xinwei, hurriedly signaled Pan Dong to call for consultation.

Pan Dong did not consult the relevant departments, but first called the law firm that Ignatius had invited to fight him.

Until now, he still has a glimmer of hope of regaining the distribution rights.

The phone went through.

The lawyer who is famous in terms of copyright smiled and told Pan Dong that Long Biao had already been obtained.

Of course~

The contract is serious. Now my agent unilaterally withdraws the distribution rights. According to the agreement between the two parties in the contract, of course, the movie cannot be shown on the theaters temporarily, and it is impossible to get the dragon mark of the traditional theaters.

But virtual cinema, is it a cinema?

The contract only states that it cannot be shown on theaters, DVDs, and online video platforms. But it is not stated that it cannot be shown in the virtual cinema in the virtual world.

The lawyer also assured Mr. Pan that even if the movie “Drifting City: Rise” was released, it would never appear on any contractually agreed platform.

“You…you are numb…” Pan Dong almost fell to the ground with anger.
