Everyone in the conference room focused their attention on Nanaya.
But Nanaya didn't look at them, but shrugged his shoulders naturally.
Because of the relationship between the entertainment product environment in Japan and North America, these business people may never really consider the feelings of those "freeloaders".
These people may think that if they block all piracy, everyone will go to watch the genuine products.
This is certainly not wrong, but the problem is that it is simply impossible to achieve in reality.
Qi Ye, who was a Chinese in his previous life, naturally understood the thoughts of those "freeloaders" better than anyone else present.
As long as there is a possibility of piracy, those "freeloaders" will not give up.
For them, spending a Zimbabwean dollar on the genuine version is a loss.
And there are such people all over the world. Don't assume that Europeans and Americans will consciously comply and use genuine products.
Whether it is game or movie piracy, most of the initial pirated resources come from Europe and the United States.
People who like "free" exist all over the world.
Nanaya excluded these people from potential customers from the very beginning.
The conference room fell into a brief silence, and finally the distribution manager of Washimine Entertainment spoke up, breaking the silence.
"I understand what Nanaya means. A considerable number of Marvel fans who watched the leaked version online out of curiosity will go to the theater to watch it a second time."
Shion also reacted. She smiled and said, "That's right. As long as we control public opinion and prevent negative reviews of the movie from spreading widely, we can totally accept the loss of those audiences."
"It's not just that." Nanaya tapped the armrest of the chair gently. "Thor is a big summer production, so the news of it being leaked in advance is definitely big news."
"Big news equals popularity, and if there is popularity we have room to operate."
Washimine's publicity and promotion department manager is worthy of being Nanaya's number one henchman. As soon as Nanaya took the initiative, the other party took over.
"We can definitely mobilize the media to hype this incident up and make it a hot topic of public concern!"
"As long as we make good use of it, those who are not interested in superhero movies will also become our audience. Director Kiryu is worthy of being a master in marketing!!"
The publicity manager was so excited that he was breathing heavily and seemed to be planning to do something big.
Kevin Feige said: "This is not enough, we need to limit the circulation of leaked versions as much as possible."
Nanaya nodded in agreement: "Yes, this will increase the difficulty for ordinary audiences to watch this version, increase curiosity and topic."
Most viewers who support genuine products have always been accustomed to doing whatever is convenient.
After all, the money has already been spent, so naturally I won't make others feel bad.
If it takes a lot of trouble to get the resources, these users will usually choose to give up and go directly to the cinema to watch.
Fortunately, the world's largest video website [See Moon] is its own industry, and the largest source can be directly blocked.
"Iioka, have the Ministry of Justice draft a strongly worded public statement."
Shion ordered her assistant.
Nanaya nodded slightly, and then added: "At the same time, we have also reported to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the FBI, and listed all the websites that have reprinted and rebroadcasted the content as targets of investigation."
"I mobilized our connections in the media and asked reporters to keep an eye on the progress of the investigation and produce a series of reports to keep the heat going."
Nanaya did not object.
Those video websites were innocently targeted this time, but they can only blame themselves for their bad luck.
Who told them to spread pirated content?
Since they are asking the authorities to hype the news for them, they must have a suitable scapegoat.
Although everyone knows that these small websites are definitely not qualified to be the masterminds behind the incident, they are the best targets for scapegoating.
Just like the "Wolverine" leak incident in the previous life, it was the organizers of those websites who were eventually arrested by the FBI.
Next, everyone in the conference room discussed the details of the promotion of "Thor".
Nanaya gave the general direction of the publicity strategy, and the specific implementation was naturally left to professionals.
The meeting lasted until nearly midnight, and Nanaya dragged his tired body out of the Washimine Building.
He flew to New York and then rushed to attend a meeting, and he didn't rest for nearly ten hours in between.
Now Nanaya just felt tired and hungry, and just wanted to return to his villa in New York as soon as possible.
After having a midnight snack prepared by Sera for me, I slept until noon the next day.
"Nanaya, wait for me."
Just as Nanaya was about to let Sera drive away, Shion stopped him.
"What's wrong?"
Nanaya saw Shion get into the car on her own initiative and asked curiously.
"I have something to discuss with you." Shion said to Sera who was driving, "Let's go to Nanaya's villa. I'll sleep there today."
"Is it okay?"
Washimine had done a big job in undermining Murdoch Jr. before, so News Corporation should have held him very tight.
At this time, Shion took the initiative to live with me. Isn't it like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?
"It's okay. With such a big incident today, it's reasonable for me, as your leader, to discuss countermeasures with you."
"Besides, do you still have the energy to attack me now?"
Shion glanced at Nanaya with disdain.
Nanaya looked at Shion in silence, and after a long while he managed to utter: "After I have rested well, I will definitely make you beg for mercy!"
"I'm looking forward to it."
Shion smiled, then she asked seriously: "Nanaya, what do you think about this?"
Nanaya shook his head: "Opinions are not important. As long as the next promotional plan is not wrong, it will not have any impact on us."
But Shion doesn't think so.
"If there is this time, there will be a second time. I won't be able to rest in peace until I find the other party."
Shion bit her finger and thought for a moment before asking, "Could it be Fox?"
Nanaya thought about it and then denied Shion's guess.
"It's unlikely. After all, if Fox did that, it would be breaking the rules."
It has been said before that companies at the top of the industry play a leading role.
If Fox, one of the Big Six, did something like this, the entire North American film industry would be in chaos if it were exposed.
It is the 21st century now, and the era of burning film, creating chaos and killing actors in the 1930s has long passed.
However, we cannot completely rule out the possibility that Fox is behind this, but Nanaya thinks that the possibility is not high.
because--
"If I were a senior executive at Fox, I would definitely consider Madoka Magica instead of Thor."
Regardless of the importance of the work to the company or the difficulty of getting it, the first choice of Fox people would definitely be "Madoka Magica" rather than "Thor".
You know, the relationship between the "Madoka Magica" crew and the "Avatar" crew is very close, and many video materials of the two parties can be directly consulted by each other.
It may be difficult to get the original film directly, but if they have patience, they can definitely piece together a "Madoka Magica" film.
Of course this was before.
Since learning about the matter of "Thor", Nanaya has added several more insurance measures for "Madoka".
Now, even if Nanaya himself wants to obtain a copy of the video material of "Madoka Magica", he has to go through several procedures.
Although this has inevitably added a lot of trouble, given the leak of "Thor" before, no one would think it is unnecessary.
It's just that the possibility of Fox is indeed small, but News Corporation...
Nanaya will never forget the behavior of those reporters from News Corporation.
These people can even trample on human lives, so stealing original movie films is naturally not a problem for them.
"It is possible."
After hearing Nanaya's guess, Shion also agreed.
"That man has always been a man who does little tricks."
Shion had obviously already determined in her heart that this matter was all caused by little Murdoch.
"This should be a dead end. We can discuss it with the FBI then."
"There are also traitors inside Marvel." Shion reminded, "I don't think those reporters alone can steal the original film."
Nanaya nodded in agreement.
If it really is News Corp.
Well, since they hacked into Marvel's server relying solely on their own technology, they would definitely not be satisfied with just the "Thor" project.
And Marvel's own internal protection measures are not just for show.
It can break through Marvel's layers of confidentiality and accurately locate the original Thor movie.
If the above premise is true, then there must be some conspiracy between the inside and the outside.
And that person is undoubtedly a senior executive of Marvel.
However, all of the above is based on the assumption that News Corporation is the mastermind behind the scenes.
It could also be Marvel's own enemies, such as DC.
In short, until the results of the investigation come out, everything is possible.
"Nanaya, how do you think we should deal with this?"
"Just wait."
In response to Shion's question, Nanaya leaned his head against the cushion in the car and answered with a relaxed look.
"Um?"
Nanaya closed his eyes and said slowly: "If our subsequent promotional methods are not wrong, then Thor will not only not fail, but will be even more successful."
"Then the mastermind will definitely take action again." Shion's eyes lit up, "If the traitor dares to move again, he will definitely be exposed."
Since the other party has not been exposed this time, News Corporation will definitely not leave the ready-made traitor unused the next time it takes action.
As for whether the traitor would agree again, Nanaya felt that he would definitely agree.
Because once a person becomes a traitor, it is difficult to turn back.
"Nanaya, do you think we should deliberately set a trap for the other side..."
Shion turned her head and wanted to discuss something more, but before she could finish her words she felt her shoulders sink.
"zzZZ"
Nanaya rested his head on Shion's shoulder and breathed evenly.
Thinking that Nanaya had been tired all day, Shion smiled gently.
She rested Nanaya's head on her chest, a softer place, and gently stroked his hair with her hand.
"Good night, Nanaya. Get some rest."
