This director only makes bad movies

Nanhai Film and Television.

"Boss, this is a document sent by the court. Let's go to court at that time." George put a document bag on Xu Nan's desk.

"I know, I'll let the lawyer handle it." Xu Nan glanced at the document, his expression unchanged.

He had expected Cameron to sue.

After all, the three major theater chains had made it clear that they would not show his movie, and Xu Nan was blatantly fooling around, ignoring Cameron's warning.

In this case, Cameron could only sue, and he had no other option but to sue.

You can't just go to a theater and ask the projectionist to show his movie, because people won't listen to him.

There is also a possibility that Cameron is playing a trick and asking a killer to kill Xu Nan to vent his anger.

This probability is relatively small. After all, there is no benefit at all from killing Xu Nan. He can't even get compensation. If he sues, there is a chance of getting compensation.

Cameron is a decent man and should not do this.

Don't be afraid even if he really does this. The security team Xu Nan hired was not in vain.

"By the way, how are you preparing for your new movie?" Xu Nan asked.

He has decided to let George take charge of Nanhai Film and Television after returning to China. In this case, George must have the ability to launch a project and complete it.

Xu Nan has already told George to let him prepare a new project alone. Several days have passed now, and the project should be ready.

George showed a distressed look: "I haven't decided what movie to prepare yet. The good schedule has passed, and there are no big-budget movies anymore."

American movies are similar to domestic movies. They also have the difference between the off-season and the peak season. In the peak season, big-budget movies are released one after another and grab the box office. In the off-season, small-budget and unknown movies are released. Big-budget movies are generally not released at this time. Released.

George is encountering this situation now. The peak movie season has passed, and all major film and television companies' big-budget movies have stopped being released. If you want to make love, you can't find a partner.

Xu Nan smiled: "This is not easy. Can you release a sequel?"

"Sequel?" George was stunned for a moment: "What sequel?"

Xu Nan: "You are an American and you must know better than me in this regard. Which movies are as famous as "Titanic"? You will make sequels to these movies."

George was shocked: "But we don't have any copyright at all."

Xu Nan rolled his eyes: "It's just brushing aside, find a way to avoid it. Take my "Titanic 2" as an example. It's not possible in theory, but it hasn't been released in the end. You can learn from my operation and find a way. Avoid copyright risks through various means.”

"For example, isn't "Jaws" very famous? If you don't have the copyright, you can make a big green shark, a big red shark, a big head shark, or make a "Jaws 2". If someone sues you, just explain that the shark in it is called Jaws. 2. It is not a sequel to Jaws, or it could be called something else instead of this name, and it can be induced during promotion to make the audience think it is a sequel to Jaws."

"In short, you can't break the law. If you really want to break the law, just lose less money and make some money."

"That's probably the idea, do you understand?"

George was stunned, his eyes showing clear dullness.

He seemed to have opened the door to a new world, and his outlook on life first collapsed and then was reshaped.

How could it still be like this?

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that it really works.

Mr. Xu blatantly chose the same name as Cameron’s new movie and still released it to make money. No problem.

Those film and television companies didn't want to make a sequel, so what if he helped with the filming?

This is called helpfulness.

George brainstormed, and in a short period of time, countless ideas came to his mind.

"I understand, Mr. Xu, I have already thought about what to do for the next project."

George's eyes lit up, he turned around and left the office.

Xu Nan nodded happily.

Children can be taught.

After George left, he picked up his mobile phone and called Zhan Beishan.

"Beishan, come to our company. Cameron has sent the lawyer's letter. Now it's your turn to show off."

"I'll be right over." Zhan Beishan replied and quickly hung up the phone.

About half an hour later, Zhan Beishan came to Xu Nan's office, picked up the documents sent by the court and read them over.

"How about it? I won't lose the case, right?" Xu Nan asked.

Zhan Beishan shook his head: "It is impossible to lose the case. Our movie is a regular movie and the name is officially registered."

"Strictly speaking, this is an official work error and it is the official fault, and we still have the copyright."

Xu Nan asked again: "Can Cameron pay for it?"

Zhan Beishan thought about it and slowly shook his head: "The probability is very low. After all, Cameron's "Titanic" was filmed first and is very famous."

"And you need to be prepared for a protracted battle. This case is a complete mess. Many people are involved in it. The lawsuit will be endless. It won't be resolved in a year or two, and it may even lead to a lawsuit. Federal Supreme Court, let the justices decide.”

Xu Nan nodded: "I'm prepared. Anyway, I'll leave this matter to you."

Litigation is a very complicated matter, especially such extremely complicated cases, and it is normal for it to take a long time.

Take the Hobbit infringement case as an example. It has been almost three months and the dispute is still going on. It is estimated that it will not stop until it goes to the Supreme Court.

It is similar in China. Only a few cases are settled in a short time. Most cases are delayed for a long time and it takes a long time to get a result.

Many times, some cases are not closed because the evidence is conclusive, but because one party is exhausted and cannot bear it, so the case is forced to be closed.

Zhan Beishan said: "Don't worry if you leave this case to me, I promise you won't lose. Our advantage is too great."

"Then I'm relieved." Xu Nan nodded.

Don’t trust those who employ them, and don’t trust those who doubt them. Since Zhan Beishan said he can handle it, let him leave it to him.

Xu Nan dared to come to the United States to make fake copies, and he also knew the laws of the United States very well. He was sure that the probability of Zhan Beishan losing the case was very small.

Even if the lawsuit is really lost, it is nothing more than a name change.

Compared with the huge benefits gained, the consequences of breaking the law are nothing to mention.

A big boss named Ma once said that if there is 100% profit, capital will dare to sell the rope that hangs itself. If there is 200% profit, capital will dare to ignore all risks.

This is no longer a 100% benefit, but a benefit of dozens or even hundreds of times. In comparison, a mere law is nothing.

If Cameron wants to file a lawsuit, then just file a lawsuit and don't panic at all.

Xu Nan even tweeted using the company’s official Twitter.

"I just received a notice from the court that the Titanic 2 infringement case will be heard in three days. In this regard, I want to say that the movie title "Titanic 2" was registered through official formal procedures. It is reasonable and legal. We also got Titanic The owner of Cruise Ship No. 2 has the film authorization and procedural justice, and Cameron’s attempt to hit the mark cannot succeed.”
