pS: Let me tell you the good news. The illustrations and characters for this book have all been done, and the queues have started.

Although based on the current situation, when it is Mijiang's turn to be on the cat hundred, it must be after the New Year next year, but there is finally hope.╮(╯▽╰)╭

Chapter 368

Shion’s counterattack was very simple. It was to use the original copyright agreement between Fox and Marvel regarding "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four".

As we all know, although Marvel's comic corners have begun to rise in recent years, Fox and Sony can be said to make a lot of money.

But because of past copyright agreements, whether it is "X-Men" or "Spider-Man", Marvel's own profit can be said to be only a small profit.

If you compare movie profits to a big cake, Marvel probably only gets a touch of cream.

Of course, this is also related to the operating ideas of Marvel in the early years.

At that time, Marvel’s abacus used movies as a promotional channel to help increase comic sales.

So when the copyright was first sold, Marvel's copyright fees were extremely low.

The rest of the matter is clear to everyone and will not be repeated.

In a word, when I sold my son, I didn't feel distressed when I sold my son, but my bowels of regret were blue.

After Jiufeng acquired Marvel, one of the important tasks was to recover the copyrights that Marvel circulated.

Thanks to the box office of the "Hulk" and "Fantastic Four", because the film copyright valuations of the Marvel characters in these two films have been reduced a lot.

This makes Jiufeng a lot easier when helping Marvel recover the copyright.

After some hard work, Marvel left only three parts of the copyright, namely the Spider-Man series in Sony's hands, and the X-Men series and Fantastic Four series in Fox's hands.

Let alone the Spider-Man and the X-Men, as IPs that have successfully undergone market testing, Sony and Foxken will have a ghost if they let go.

Therefore, Marvel only hopes to seek cooperation more.

Sony is pretty good at talking, even though the Sony game department and the Jiufeng game department are fighting to death in the console market.

However, the two parties have always had a fairly good cooperative relationship in the film field. Even earlier, Jiufeng and Sony Columbia acquired MGM.

The reason why Sony has this situation is due to the very serious factional struggle within it.

I don’t know if this is considered a traditional Japanese art, anyway, internal fighting is always better than external fighting.

With Jiufeng giving enough benefits, Sony Columbia does not exclude cooperation with this old rival in its own game department.

But no matter how friendly Sony Columbia is to Jiufeng, the basic business rules must be followed.

Especially now the "Spider-Man" series has become the most powerful cash cow for Sony Columbia.

Just like the Three Kingdoms Killing series has the problem of "No general in Shu, and Zhuge Liang again", Sony Columbia's performance in recent years has been supported by the little spider alone.

Sony has no performance and restarts Spider-Man.

This will be Sony Columbia's tried and tested big trick in the next 10 years.

Although it is still far from this point, the important position of Spider-Man has been highlighted.

Columbia is still very cautious and careful about whether or not to take the brother of Marvel Studios to play.

As for 10 years later, Sony is holding Marvel Pictures’ thighs and crying, “For the sake of the party and the state, let’s play with the bugs” is something to say.

Although Sony Columbia rejected Marvel’s cooperation on Spider-Man, they returned the copyright of Thor to Marvel to ensure a good cooperative relationship between Sony Columbia and Jiufeng Entertainment.

However, compared with Sony Columbia, which is still planning to live in peace, the 20th Century Fox has completely torn the skin.

Since the other party didn't care about face, Shion didn't plan to be polite with the other party.

There were a lot of problems in the copyright sharing agreement signed between Fox and Marvel in "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four", and it is not a problem at all to say that it is an unequal commercial agreement.

In the past, Marvel was weak and had to rely on Fox's meager share to maintain the company's operations, so it can only be mad at this overlord clause.

This time, Jiufeng directly brought out the relevant copyright clauses, and after careful study, a suit brought Fox to the court.

According to the analysis of Jiufeng's legal department, Marvel and Fox have serious legal loopholes and inequities in the agreement between "X-Men" and "Fantastic Four".

Jiufeng proposed that the two parties need to re-sign the agreement and have Fox compensate Marvel with US$250 million.

Although everyone knows that Jiufeng’s request is a big opening, but in view of Fox’s ugly face before, all other Hollywood companies are sitting on the sidelines with the mentality of watching the excitement.

On Fox's side, it was extremely uncomfortable to be engaged in this lawsuit. Although Jiufeng's legal department was strong, Fox's legal department was not a dry one.

If the two sides really have to fight in court, it really doesn't necessarily mean who will win or lose.

But the problem is that Fox thinks he is one of the top six in Hollywood. It is really embarrassing to be pressed so hard by a new company that has just entered Hollywood for less than five years.

Fox, who couldn't hold back his face, began to retaliate deliberately. On the one hand, he slowly wrangled with Jiufeng about the copyright of Marvel. On the other hand, he began to find ways to find loopholes in Jiufeng Entertainment and then retaliated.

At the beginning of the year, there was a shadow of Fox behind the protest about the accelerated playback function of the [See Moon] website.

So after seeing the big explosion of Jiufeng's ubw movie, Fox certainly couldn't sit still.

Especially when thinking of the scene where Fate’s "Fantastic Four", which he invested in hundreds of millions of dollars, was hanged on the ground in the upper half of last year, all Fox executives looked at the steadily rising box office of ubw, and suddenly felt that their throat seemed to be stuck. With a live fly, it was extremely uncomfortable.

As usual, the best way to face such an opponent Fox is to cope with all changes, keep quiet to reduce the popularity of ubw, and frantically build momentum for his own "X-Men".

This is not a particularly difficult operation for a media group like Fox.

In fact, Fox did the same at the beginning. No matter how hot ubw was, none of the Fox faction media reported related matters, and it all assumed that the movie did not exist.

But many things in the world are often beyond the subjective control of human beings, especially with the participation of human beings, the most uncertain factor.

I don't know who's the hapless kid. He took out the article comparing fate and "Fantastic Four" on the Internet last year, and reposted it online after making some revisions.

To the effect, in reality, someone told me that ubw was a bad movie, and the later "X-Men 3" was a good movie.

I don't want to have fearless quarrels with others, so after analyzing the two films, I issued this article to criticize them.

There are several points about how ubw is better than "X-Men": One, two, three...

For the guy who saw the excitement in this way, Qi Ye suddenly came up with a sentence:

In reality, I only promise; on the Internet, I strike hard.

Regardless of whether the person who first wrote this article was thinking like this, since he knocked down the first domino, things have become out of control.
