While others were still discussing relevant countermeasures, Nanaya was already thinking about how to deal with this matter.
Although as time goes by, Nanaya's "invincible intuition (future vision)" has become less and less.
But in some special matters, "intuition" can still give Nanaya a lot of reference opinions.
Excluding the occasional leaks of fragments, there were three of the most serious Hollywood movie leaks in Seven Nights of Memory.
They are "Wolverine", "The Interview" and "The Expendables 3" respectively.
Although the extent and process of the leaks varied, the result was that all three films were leaked before their scheduled release.
The ending of "The Expendables 3" was a complete failure, and "the nation's father-in-law" Mr. Stallone even yelled about it.
But Nanaya felt that even if this movie was released normally, it would probably be a money-losing product.
The quality of "The Expendables 3" is average to begin with, and with the decline of traditional action movies, it would be good enough for "The Expendables 3" to break even.
Sony's "The Interview" is even more incomparable.
It would be better to say that the attack on Sony's server was the incident caused by this film itself.
The movie "The Interview" has been controversial since the release of the first trailer.
After all, not everyone dares to hype up the popularity of a head of state, even in Hollywood.
That hacker attack caused Sony to suffer heavy losses, and it can even be said to be the largest corporate hacker attack since the 21st century.
But what's interesting is that after this incident, Sony's business has been much smoother.
Especially Sony Columbia. You have to know that Columbia was on the verge of being sold by Sony at that time.
As a result of this leak, Sony Columbia facilitated a collaboration with Marvel.
The performance of several films released by Sony afterwards exceeded everyone's expectations.
I can't say that all of them are in the green, but at least they all have good profits.
Especially after the release of "Spider-Man: Homecoming", a collaboration between Sony and Marvel, which made a huge profit.
Sony treasured Columbia so much that it never mentioned selling it again.
It can be said that Sony Columbia has truly demonstrated what it means to be "a blessing in disguise".
But there is nothing that Washimine can learn from Sony's success now.
After all, no matter what Nanaya does, he can't let "Thor" have anything to do with the country on that peninsula.
Not only is it not worth it, it can also easily cause trouble.
Therefore, the only movie that can serve as a reference for Qi Ye is "Wolverine".
Coincidentally, Nanaya had made a lot of preparations for the promotion of "Thor".
Many of them are related to the leak of the "Wolverine" movie.
Although all three Wolverine trilogies made money, it can be said that the way these three films achieved success was all "evil".
Judging by Nanaya' standards, only the movie "Logan" itself is of good quality.
But its success is not so much the success of the film itself as it is the curtain call for Wolf's 17-year screen career.
Without the blessing of sentiment, the reputation of "Logan" would definitely not be that good.
"Logan" and "Logan" are different.
Especially for "Logan", a large number of viewers went to see the Easter egg of Professor X and Magneto joining forces in the end.
As for Wolverine 1...
Even though the release date of the movie was modified in Seven Nights' Lifetime.
But from what Nanaya has learned, this movie, which is a prequel to "X-Men", has been plagued by negative news since its filming.
Especially in the recent previews, all the information Washimine collected showed that the film had a very bad reputation.
At the same time, the actors also implicitly expressed their dissatisfaction with the plot of the movie when they were interviewed.
The current situation before the release of "Wolverine" is not much different from that of Nanaya in his previous life.
In the previous life, this movie grossed more than 85 million U.S. dollars in North America in its first week, and ultimately became a commercial success.
In addition to the charm of the character of Uncle Wolf, the biggest contributor is Fox's series of correct publicity after the original movie.
If it weren't for this, Nanaya estimated that the movie would have a high probability of a box office crash.
There have been many different opinions on why the original film of "Wolverine" was leaked in the previous life.
At first, everyone speculated that it was the special effects company that did it, because the uploaded version was a version without special effects, but there was a watermark of the special effects company on it.
However, the special effects company denied this and stated that they had never had any contact with the complete film.
The FBI's investigation was also vague, and the case was hastily closed with the arrest of a few pirated video website administrators.
Seven nights ago, I had always thought that Fox would suffer the same disaster again, and I had prepared many counter-propaganda measures.
This is to prevent Fox from taking advantage of the popularity of the movie source to hype up "Wolverine" on a large scale.
It now seems that these backup plans are no longer needed.
On the contrary, Nanaya is also learning what Fox did in his previous life.
Nanaya compared the leaked version of "Wolverine" in his memory with the "Thor" in front of him now.
Although both are movies without special effects, that version of "Wolverine" is obviously more complete.
In that version of Wolverine, only some of the special effects, including the final battle, had not been added.
Although most of the other special effects shots still need to be further polished, they basically do not affect the viewing experience.
In contrast, in "Thor", almost most of the special effects were not completed.
Although people who watch the video can skip some scenes and watch the whole movie to understand the plot.
But what's the use of this? !
The story of "Thor" is a standard three-act play structure that couldn't be more standard - the protagonist learns the "truth" from the "lies" and becomes a better person.
This story template has been used in Hollywood at least 9,999 times, if not 10,000 times.
Special effects are the foundation of "Thor", special effects are the selling point of "Thor", and special effects are the reason why "Thor" attracts audiences to buy tickets.
A superhero movie without special effects is nothing.
Although another selling point of "Thor" is the brotherhood between Thor and Loki.
But this is also incomplete in the exposed version.
The final battle between Loki and Thor brothers at the Rainbow Bridge was basically a mixture of freeze frames and green screens.
Now that we know the key point of the problem, we just need to apply force at the key point.
So, Nanaya said to everyone: "This leak is not as serious as everyone expected, and if this matter is handled well, it may even be an opportunity for publicity."
"Opportunity?"
Everyone present had extensive experience in operating movies, and because of this, their minds were not as open as Nanaya's.
Countless past leaks equaled box office failure, making everyone too afraid of the Thor leak.
But Nanaya believed that even if he didn't say it, it wouldn't take too long for these people to figure it out.
After all, it was he who brought out the film promotion concepts of these people, and Nanaya believed in their abilities.
But time is running out, and Nanaya doesn't have time to wait for his men to figure things out on their own.
Acting one second earlier will be more beneficial to Washimine and Marvel.
"First, Kevin. We need to issue a joint statement calling on movie fans to boycott online piracy."
Nanaya gave the order to Kevin Feige.
Although this is better than nothing, it must be done.
This represents the attitude of Washimine and Marvel as creators of cultural products.
After all, the entire industry is resisting piracy, and it would be unreasonable for Marvel, as a victim, not to take action.
"We also need to contact everyone to delete the posts on the Internet." Feige added proactively.
The general manager of Washimine Entertainment echoed: "Of course, we also called the police and filed a lawsuit with the MPAA."
The MPAA must definitely take care of the issue of online piracy, otherwise its status as the highest-level organization in the American film industry will be shaken.
"You are all more familiar with the procedures than I am, so I won't say any more. Just follow the normal process."
Nanaya was very satisfied with the performance of others. He glanced at everyone and continued, "Director Toro has just said that the main highlights of Thor are the special effects and Thor's brotherhood."
My brother has abused me thousands of times, but I still treat him like my first love.
The relationship between Thor and Loki is not just something a few people say casually, but is recognized by most movie fans.
Compared to Jane Foster, many people believe that Loki is the heroine.
"In the leaked version of Thor, most of the CGI effects were not yet completed."
Nanaya explained to everyone: "Also, in this version, many of Loki's lines in the later period only have freeze-frame shots and subtitles, which greatly affects the viewing experience."
I have to say that Marvel is very lucky to have only one unfinished version.
Because the special effects of "Thor" were outsourced by Washimine to Light & Magic Industries.
So the completed version is in Washimine's database, and Marvel has backed up the semi-finished product.
Originally, Washimine planned to submit the final version to Marvel's database before the release.
Now it seems that it's a good thing that Washimine didn't have time to do so.
Nanaya's words let everyone know that the situation was not yet critical, and the heavy atmosphere in the meeting room immediately eased a lot.
Then Nanaya began to tell everyone how to turn disadvantages into advantages, which is the key to the next task.
"After watching the leaked version, viewers will be curious about what the picture will look like after adding special effects, and what lines will be in the original frozen parts."
"These are enough to arouse everyone's curiosity. As long as we operate well, we can definitely attract these curious audiences to the cinema."
Shion frowned and said, "But most of those who watched the leaked version on the Internet should have planned to go to the theater to watch Thor. If they have been spoiled now..."
"Shion, you have to understand one thing." Nanaya said confidently, "People who watch the leaked version of Thor are either Marvel's serious fans or people who like to watch movies for free."
Nanaya said: "The former will definitely not accept a half-finished movie. In order to get the best viewing experience, they will definitely watch the movie again."
"As for the latter, even if you lower the price of movie tickets to 1 cent, they still won't pay for admission."
