Chapter 209: Sony Pictures, a company that is difficult to deal with

"Wang, is this the big surprise you mentioned on the phone before? It really is an eye-opener!"

Unlike the previous ones, Howard Bruno, as a foreigner, may be more flamboyant in his expression.

"[Galaxy Cinematic Universe], this is simply a crazy plan!

Although I have always liked "Wushuang" and watched "Fatal Call", I always thought they were just a series of film projects.

Cinematic Universe, oh, how could you come up with such genius.

Wang, you really should go to Hollywood. Only Hollywood film and television companies can accommodate your grand ideals and designs. In China..."

Howard Bruno shook his head.

“It is difficult for your plan to gain sufficient support, whether in terms of technology, funding, or publicity and distribution.

You should let more people see your designs and ingenuity. Only Hollywood, the place with the most prosperous entertainment industry in the world, can help you realize your dream."

However, Wang Hao shook his head when he heard this.

"Mr. Bruno, thank you for your compliment.

But my audience base is still in China. I'm sorry, I can't abandon my fans.

Moreover, I have been working in this field for a long time. Now I have to leave behind all my past achievements and start from scratch in Hollywood.

With all due respect, this is not an easy task.

As far as I know, as you said, every year there are new directors coming to Hollywood from all over the world who are not ordinary people.

How many of them can actually succeed?"

When Howard Bruno heard this, he thought that Wang Hao had wavered, and immediately his true colors were revealed.

"Oh, Wang, my friend, you are not like those young directors who go to Hollywood to pursue their dreams. You are a genius! A true genius!
With the big project of the movie universe in hand and the achievements of "Wushuang" as a role model, believe me, you will definitely be sought after by movie fans all over the world.

And we at Columbia will definitely support you strongly. You can direct "Taken". We will provide you with the best production team, the biggest actors, the best equipment, and the most innovative special effects production technology.

Believe me, it will make your dream come true ahead of time, and in the process, you will also gain a lot of wealth and glory. "

"But that means I have to pay a price, doesn't it?"

Wang Hao pointed out the problem very directly.

"For example, handing over control of the [Galaxy Cinematic Universe]."

“That’s a necessary condition.”

Facing Wang Hao's accusation, Howard Bruno said nonchalantly:
"You can't control such a large project by yourself, Wang. We are helping you. This is the team spirit that is indispensable in the era of film industrialization."

Howard Bruno was still using his eloquent words to try to persuade Wang Hao.

Keita Miyamoto, who was standing next to him, understood, based on his familiarity with China, that Wang Hao was a young man with a strong sense of family and country.

With such a person's loyalty and love for the country, it was simply impossible to use the fame and fortune of Hollywood to attract him to change his allegiance. So he decisively interrupted Howard Bruno's persuasion, took the initiative to stand in front of Wang Hao, and stretched out his right hand.

"Nice to meet you, Wang-san. Let me formally introduce myself to you. I am Keita Miyamoto, Vice President of Sony Pictures North America."

Wang Hao looked at the friendly and polite middle-aged Japanese man in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Just two hours ago, this person, who was introduced by Howard Bruno, was still indifferent to Wang Hao and acted in a cold manner.

Now that he saw that he had gained benefits, he forgot his previous rudeness and acted respectfully.

It turns out that the Japanese people's backs are flexible enough.

Of course, as a Chinese who comes from a country of etiquette, Wang Hao, as the host, naturally could not be as impolite as the other party. He still shook hands with him and then quickly let go.

As for Wang Hao's polite indifference, Miyamoto Keita did not care, and still praised him politely:

"I admire Mr. Wang's passion for his country's film industry. It reminds me of Mr. Akira Kurosawa, a great director in my country.

He, like you, Wang Sang, has been working hard for the film industry in our country.

I think with this [Galaxy Cinematic Universe], China’s film and cultural industry will surely usher in a period of prosperous development.”

"Mr. Miyamoto, thank you for your praise. Mr. Kurosawa is also a senior director whom I admire very much."

Wang Hao naturally responded politely to the other party's compliment.

However, Miyamoto Keita was speaking just fine, but suddenly changed the subject.

“It’s just that you are still too young, Wang Sang. This [Galaxy Cinematic Universe] is also too immature, and has only just started.

I don't deny that it does have great potential, but I'm afraid it's a bit unrealistic to want to push it to represent Chinese films in the international film and television market and compete with those Hollywood film giants.

Not to mention anything else, we at Sony Pictures have the Spider-Man film series, Warner has the Harry Potter and DC film series, and Fox also has the X-Men film series.

With your explanation and demonstration today, it shouldn't be difficult to expand these film series into a movie universe.

After all, Hollywood has the best screenwriter and production teams in the world, as well as the best directors, producers and actors.

From this point of view alone, your film company, which has only been established for more than a year, has no advantages at all.

Moreover, the accumulated foundation of these film series is enough to catch up with your first-mover advantage of the [Galaxy Cinematic Universe].

By the time Hollywood's many film companies react, I'm afraid your Galaxy Cinematic Universe will be "indistinguishable from the crowd," as the Chinese idiom goes. "

After saying these words with strong threatening connotations, Miyamoto Keita's originally hunched short body straightened up instantly, and he stared at Wang Hao with an extremely sharp gaze.

A powerful aura belonging to the senior leaders of a large multinational corporate group, like a surging wave, hit Wang Hao fiercely.

It seemed that this senior leader of Sony Pictures wanted to use these words and his own aura to intimidate Wang Hao, a rising star in the film industry, and win him over.

However, facing Keita Miyamoto's threat, Wang Hao remained unmoved and even wanted to laugh.
