Made in Hollywood

"Since the worst film source leak in Hollywood history, the FBI has been involved in the investigation, and many websites and organizations that spread online piracy have become the focus of the investigation..."

Breakfast time is the key stage of American TV stations, especially news programs, and as a result, many famous programs such as "Good Morning America" ​​were born. The Jefferson family sat at the dining table and had breakfast while watching CNN TV programs.

Anthony Jefferson is the head of the family and is in his forties. He is usually very busy with work and rarely pays attention to the entertainment industry. Hearing the most serious sentence in history, he can't help asking curiously, "Which movie leaked? ?"

His son, Jefferson Jr. immediately replied, "Iron Man, Duke Rosenberg's new film."

"Duke Rosenberg."

Even if he doesn't pay attention to the entertainment industry, Anthony Jefferson has heard of the name, "The most famous director in America."

"Well." Little Jefferson nodded as a matter of course.

However, he didn't say much. As a young man who likes this type of film, Jefferson Jr. has seen the leaked version on the Internet. Driven by his curiosity that can't be satisfied at all, he is very concerned about the progress of this matter. .

The leak of the film source is obviously the focus of CNN's reporting, and it has been tracking reports recently.

"According to reliable information, a leading member of SEPTIC, a well-known piracy organization active on the Internet, has been subpoenaed by the FBI. The website and servers belonging to this organization have been forcibly shut down, and storage warehouses up to 120TB have also been sealed... "

"Yesterday afternoon, the FBI conducted an operation that suddenly raided a data center in Sacramento and seized .Networks servers. The company CEO posted a message via instant sharing that FBI agents unplugged all servers. Seized All equipment belonging to the company's customers, and threats to arrest customers who try to get the equipment back."

"The CEO of the company angrily claimed - if you run a data center, be careful in our great country because the FBI can come and take whatever they want at any time without any reason."

"The CEO said angrily - if you run a data center, be careful in our great country, because the FBI can come and take whatever they want at any time without any reason."

"Although FBI agents have not disclosed what they are looking for. But there is information that this incident is related to the leaked "Iron Man" source a few days ago."

On the TV screen, the undisguised actions of the FBI agents are like a Hollywood special agent movie.

Such a picture completely aroused Anthony Jefferson's interest. "The incident seems to be serious. I haven't seen such a high-profile action by the FBI in more than ten years."

He put down the knife and fork in his hand and said again. "Iron Man? What kind of movie is it?"

"It's a pity that the online leaked version has nothing to watch at all, otherwise you can watch it when you come back from get off work." Little Jefferson rolled his eyes and suggested, "Dad, "Iron Man" is about to be released. Why don't we go to the theater to see it? already."

Mrs. Jefferson, who has not spoken, said, "Recently, colleagues and neighbors have been talking about this movie. If there is time, we can go together."

"Well..." Anthony Jefferson nodded. "As long as I don't work overtime, I'll go together."

Those companies and websites investigated by the FBI. Not necessarily related to this incident, but the FBI chose them not just because of Warner's hype, these people did break the law. And it is basically related to online pirated movies, which seriously violates the interests of a capital syndicate.

This organization is called MPAA, which is the so-called National Motion Picture Association. This is not an official organization, but a consortium of traditional Hollywood forces.

The MPAA, seeing a tendency for events to come into the spotlight, is pushing hard behind the scenes to crack down on those who harm their interests.

In this highly developed business society, behind every hot event, there are always many big hands.

Duke and Warner Bros. are just one of them.

In less than a week before and after, the source of "Iron Man" has become a hot topic in North America and even the Western world. The FBI's actions have also been watched by countless pairs of eyes. According to the news obtained by Duke, it will be released in the film. In the past, the FBI will definitely catch and announce the culprit.

As for whether the other party is the real perpetrator, it doesn't matter at all.

Although it is not realistic to say that it has become a national topic like 9/11 or the Iraq War, there are undoubtedly many more people who know and are interested in "Iron Man".

These people can't be satisfied with the online leaked version at all, and their eyes can only turn to the upcoming movie.

"I heard that "Iron Man" came out a few days ago, but I thought that it was a leaked version, the special effects were not done, it should be very unwatchable, so I kept watching it, and I finally finished it today, only to realize that I was wrong It's really interesting, the special effects that haven't been done well, the motion capture equipment exposed, the original semi-finished product is like this... This also makes me more interested in the finished film, and I will compare it after watching the fully completed version in the theater. The second half-finished product, isn't it interesting?"

Many comments on the Internet also represent the views of mainstream fans. Most audiences' expectations for "Iron Man" have not decreased, but have increased a lot.

Seeing the comments on the Internet that Scarlett found, Duke confirmed one thing. The former 20th Century Fox probably used risk marketing.

"I asked Linda to ask her classmates yesterday..."

Closing the laptop, Scarlett turned her eyes to the sea outside the terrace to relieve the fatigue of facing the screen for a long time, and said to Duke, "Linda is my intern assistant, the news she fed back, the surrounding classmates Many people and friends are talking about "Iron Man", almost all of them are interested, our strategy seems to be really effective."

"There is always some effect." Duke got a glass of water, put it in front of Scarlett, and looked at the sea, "Although what was leaked was the sample edited by me and Mike Dawson, it was not the final edited version, such as All your action scenes haven't been added to it yet."

In recent days, Duke has also re-adjusted the editing plan, especially at the beginning of the film, basically changing the mode so that it can bring freshness when it is shown in theaters.

And Scarlett Johansson's action scene is also a fresh picture. During this period of regular publicity strategy, Warner Bros. has also increased its publicity about Scarlett.

Although he has come up with a corresponding strategy, the response seems to be good so far, but Duke will not stick to the rules.

Because of the time, he couldn't make too many editing changes to the film, but he was able to make appropriate adjustments.

Scarlett looked away from the sea and turned to Duke, "You still look worried."

Duke nodded slightly, "Although the response of the publicity and hype is very good, it will be seen in a few days whether the hot topic of discussion can be turned into market momentum."

It has been less than half a month since "Iron Man" was released in North America. In a few days, the North American pre-sale of the film will be opened through the Internet and telephone. The box office trend of "Iron Man" can also be determined from the pre-sale situation. , spied some.

"I believe in you."

Saying that, Scarlett stood up, walked over here, pulled Duke up, and pointed to the pier, "Let's go out to sea to relax."

Parked by the pier is the small yacht I bought a long time ago. From the current perspective, the yacht is too small to be too far from the coastline, and the equipment has never been updated, and some are too old.

The wind and waves were a little rough today. Not long after the yacht was out, Duke felt the turbulence was very strong, so he had to change direction and drive along the route close to the coast.

"The yacht should be replaced." Duke said, listening to the trembling sound of the engine, "Change to a bigger one that can sail the ocean. We can gather friends to have a party on it, and we can also go directly to Hawaii when we are on vacation. Or the Caribbean."

"Then build a bigger one." Scarlett unscrewed a bottle of drink and put it in front of Duke, "Haven't you heard, that old Spielberg spent nearly 200 million US dollars to order it. A big yacht close to 300 feet long, if you want to change it, it should be bigger than his."

She looked at Duke again and said, "What about you, your personality is a little too calm. Sometimes I think it's weird, it used to be like... Forget it, let's not talk about the past."

This circle is like this, and Scarlett has nothing to say. After changing the topic, she continued, "In recent years, she has been living like a Puritan."

"Because I'm old, dear."

Only Duke himself can understand these words, "Old people always prefer a stable and peaceful life."

"Are you old?"

The turn of the yacht caused a few waves, Scarlett grabbed the handrail, and regardless of the water droplets on her face, her eyes turned around Duke, "Your body and energy are exuberant as if stopped at Thirty years old."

"Thank you for your compliment." Duke looked down at the route map, slightly adjusted the direction of the yacht, and said, "Let's go to Santa Monica."

"Okay, it's been a long time since I passed." Scarlett looked completely agreed, "It's good to stay there at night, I still miss the scene of living in Santa Monica when I was a child by the sea. "

After Mrs. Leah moved to New York, the house in Santa Monica was vacant, but not for sale. It was Duke's earliest residence, where he grew up, including Scarlett Johansson later. , Because of the broken family, I often lived here when I was a child.

Of course, Duke has a limited vacation, Iron Man is coming out, pre-sale is about to start, and he has a lot to do. (To be continued ~^~)
