Warner never imagined that banning Zhang Xiao would arouse public outrage among netizens across the country. In just twelve hours, the pre-sale box office of the movie "The Crossing" shrank from 450 million to 3,000.

Two million.

This can be said to be a very serious loss.

However, what is even more frightening is that Warner is getting more serious in the next two, and there are still three blockbusters to be released in Chinese cinemas. One of them is independently invested by them, and the other two are jointly invested, with a total amount of US$685 million.

If it cannot achieve good results in China, the world's second largest film market, then Warner will be doomed.

The six major film companies in Hollywood have never been very harmonious. Warner is unlucky. Naturally, other companies will not miss such a good opportunity to beat the loser. They have come out to accuse Warner, and at the same time quietly took action to suppress Warner's stock price.

With the pressure of five other film companies, Warner's stock undoubtedly began to plummet. In less than two days, more than 10 billion US dollars evaporated, and the stock price of the parent company also fell a lot.

Unlike on earth, among the six major film companies in Hollywood, the most powerful one is not Disney yet, but Warner.

This super movie company, which functions as DC Comics, has a market value of 150 billion U.S. dollars, ranking first among the six major movie companies, while Disney currently only has 80 billion U.S. dollars, ranking fourth.

However, in two days, Zhang Xiao shorted Warner's US$5 billion, which brought him US$600 million in income.

While Warner Bros. Pictures was struggling, Disney and Marvel Comics finally reached an agreement on cooperation.

The final result was that Zhang Xiao obtained 6% of Disney's shares and a huge sum of US$1.1 billion. This can be said to be in accordance with Zhang Xiao's previous expectations.

After everything was settled, Zhang Xiao returned to Yuzhou from Lighthouse Country.

When he came back, Yang Mi had been studying at the film school and happened to be at home recently.

Seeing Zhang Xiao coming back, Yang Mi quickly stepped forward and said with concern: "Husband, it's okay, it's just a role. We don't want it anymore. It's good to concentrate on developing in China."

"With your current momentum, it won't take long for you to become the number one person in China's entertainment industry."

Obviously Yang Mi was not very excited to see Zhang Xiao. Yang Mi also knew about Zhang Xiao being banned by Warner in the Lighthouse Country, so as soon as Zhang Xiao came back, Yang Mi came over to comfort him with great concern.

Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I'm not that fragile."

Yang Mi looked at Zhang Xiao carefully, and continued to comfort her with some disbelief: "No matter how well "Batman" is shot, we Chinese movie fans can make it as popular as "Cross Country"."

Nearly a week has passed since Zhang Xiao posted an angry Weibo message. Warner Bros. has become a thing that everyone is shouting about in China. The film "The Crossing" with a total investment of 230 million US dollars has only received

It has a box office of 28 million.

For a Hollywood blockbuster, this is terrible!

Many movie theaters were afraid that angry movie fans would have opinions about their theaters, so they canceled the movie before it was time to download it.

Warner's market value has also been maliciously suppressed by the market, evaporating 43 billion U.S. dollars, more than a quarter of the company's total market value. It can be said that it has been severely damaged.

The happiest person was Zhang Xiao. He made a huge profit of 1.3 billion US dollars from it, and had his private investment team withdraw the funds before he returned to China.

As soon as he got home and heard Yang Mi's comfort, Zhang Xiao was very moved. He hugged Yang Mi's slender waist and said, "I'm really fine. I'm not sad at all, let alone sad. Just look at it."

, Warner will send someone to find me soon."

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, and then asked curiously: "Why?"

Zhang Xiao smiled and explained: "My wife, you don't understand that the person who untied the bell must also tie the bell. Now Warner has lost more than 40 billion US dollars. If you are its shareholder, you

What will you do?"

Yang Mi suddenly said: "I understand, you mean they will come and apologize to you to restore Warner's reputation in the Chinese market, right?"

Zhang Xiao snapped his fingers and said: "Smart, as long as their shareholders are not stupid, they will do this."

···

Just when Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi were getting married, they were at the Warner headquarters on the other side of the ocean.

"Charles, you idiot, what are you doing?" Warner President Robert, like an angry lion, yelled at Charles in front of him.

He is the president of the entire Warner company, and Warner Films is just a branch of Warner.

Charles explained: "Mr. Robert, I really didn't expect that Zhang Xiao would have such a great influence in China."

"Bang!"

Robert directly picked up the crutch in his hand, hit Charles twice on the shoulder, and shouted angrily: "Are you a pig? You don't even understand your own enemy, so you attack him. It's like a pig."

Still stupid."

Charles looked in pain, raised his hands to cover his shoulders, and said pitifully: "Boss, I have actually prepared to arrange for Ryan to hold a press conference to apologize to China."

"Now as long as Ryan wakes up, things may be irreversible."

Robert said with an unkind expression: "Your irreversible words cost Warner more than 40 billion US dollars, and also made us a target of public criticism in China."

"Do you know that the Director of the Department of Culture of China has called me. He is very dissatisfied with what you have done and asked me to give a satisfactory explanation to the Chinese people immediately. Otherwise, they will respond immediately.

At the request of millions of movie fans, all the movies we invest in will be blocked."

"Charles, do you want the entire Warner company to bury your stupid nephew with you?"

In fact, when the director of the Department of Culture called Robert, it was already his last warning. If it weren’t for the fact that Warner has been delivering many blockbuster movies to the Chinese market in recent years, it would have been banned directly.

They are.

Of course, this is still a situation where the Yang family has not come forward. If the Yang family had come forward, the Department of Culture would not hesitate to block all film and television works invested by Warner Film Company.

Charles lowered his head and said: "I'm sorry, boss, please give me three more days, and I will definitely handle this matter."
