The release of "Ip Man" has once again ignited the enthusiasm of global kung fu fans. In just one week, the global box office has reached 350 million yuan!

You know, the total box office of "The Grandmaster 2" which was just released some time ago was only 350 million yuan!

"Ip Man" took a week to achieve the box office results of "Grandmaster 2" for more than a month!

With all the comments online, there is no suspense about who wins and who loses.

Of course, if you want to argue, there will be some competition. After all, "The Grandmaster 2" has a completely different Chinese market than "Ip Man".

As the world's second largest film market and has the most kung fu film fans, the role of the Chinese market must not be ignored.

But "The Grandmaster 2" cannot enter the Chinese market, who can't blame?

Anyway, Fan Wenqiang is definitely unwilling to take the blame.

New Winter, CEO Joseph Needham welcomed his distinguished guest.

"Mr. Bright, coffee or tea?" Joseph Needham asked, sitting down as he greeted Bright.

"Coffee." Bright responded with a smile.

Joseph Needham asked his secretary to make two cups of coffee, then sat down on the sofa, and half-jokingly said, "Mr. Bright doesn't seem to be very lucky recently? I heard that your company's new movie has caused Tomahawk Pictures to break up?"

Bright smiled: "Yes, Tomahawk Film's dominance in Kung Fu movies is too terrifying."

"It seems that we have a contribution to this? When "Ip Man" was first released, their director, producer and starring were present at the movie theme hall in City N. The noise was quite big, which was equivalent to helping their movies promote for free." Joseph Needham smiled.

"Ha, you're very optimistic."

"Otherwise? Tyrant against them like you? Mr. Bright, don't you think you have wasted too much resources on Tomahawk Pictures in the past two years?" Joseph Needham asked as he took the coffee from his secretary.

Last time, Bright joined forces with Cui to attack the Battle Axe Group, but ended up in a crushing defeat. Bright escaped unscathed, but Cui suffered a loss.

This is no secret in their circle.

Therefore, Joseph Needham has guessed the purpose of Bright's visit today.

It is highly likely that I will come to join forces with New Winter to deal with Tomahawk Film.

Bright also saw that he was not very interested in this matter, so he explained: "Tomahawk Film is a very terrible opponent. They grow very fast. If they are not suppressed, they will definitely threaten our living environment in the future."

Joseph Needham stirred the coffee, not very much agree with his statement.

"Mr. Bright, Tomahawk Film currently has two major themes, one is Kung Fu and the other is Xianxia. But these two themes are the new markets they have created, and they have unique advantages. Apart from that, they have no works that they can do on other themes.

The "Escape Era" they filmed in the early years did not reach our dominance in the field of science fiction films. There is also the art film "Angel Angel", which caused some sensation, but also did not change anything.

To put it bluntly, they are just making money in the new market they have opened themselves, and there is no big conflict of interest with the old market we are in. Audiences will not give up on our superheroes just because they like kung fu movies, unless we smash the movie ourselves.

So, Mr. Bright, I don't understand where your so-called threat is?"

"Tomahawk Pictures is currently focusing on Kung Fu and Fairy Tales, but they have the ability to shoot movies of other themes. "Escape Age" was their earliest work. At that time, they were able to produce science fiction movies of this level. Now if they want to shoot the second one, I have no doubt that they can change the landscape of science fiction movies."

"Same, Angel Angela is the same. The quality of their movies is OK. If they don't shoot now, it doesn't mean they can't shoot well."

"Kung Fu and Xianxia are just breakthroughs they have found. They can't always shoot these two subjects. They are waiting for an opportunity, waiting for their strength to further grow, and waiting for themselves to gain a foothold on the international stage. If they really wait until that time, you will definitely regret it." Bright corrected his attitude and reminded Joseph Needham very seriously.

Joseph Needham took a sip of coffee and looked calm: "So? Are you planning to let us enter the Kung Fu Film market and compete with them? Mr. Bright, your company has not gotten any cheaper in Kung Fu Films, let alone us.

Our company has no talent or experience in this regard, and it is not a decision that a qualified manager should make when entering a strange field."

Joseph Needham smiled and confessed: "Mr. Bright, I am different from you. Snowmotten is your family asset, but I am just working for New Winter Company. I must be responsible for my employer and it is impossible to burn the employer's money. Do you believe it? As long as I dare to set up a project to make a kung fu movie today, shareholders will drive me out of the office tomorrow."

"Li, your shareholders trust you very much, and they will understand your decision. Besides, I didn't say I wanted you to make kung fu movies."

"What's the meaning?"

"Fantasy movie." Bright smiled.

"Are you kidding? Fairy tale is harder to shoot than kung fu! I don't want to be scolded like you for misinterpreting Chinese culture and it's thankless."

"They all say that Xianxia is an oriental fantasy, but isn't your company good at making fantasy movies besides science fiction? Just use fantasy movies to snipe them. It's also a fantasy world, I believe you know how to attract the audience's attention." Bright reminded.

Joseph Needham stopped answering his words.

Obviously, no matter what he said, Joseph Needham was not interested in joining forces with him to deal with Tomahawk Film.

After all, New Winter has no very big conflict of interest with Tomahawk Pictures at present.

The so-called fairy tale and fantasy are actually not true competitors, unless they are artificially opposed to each other.

Bright took a sip of coffee and saw that he stopped talking, he continued: "We have heard from China that there is another game company under the Tomahawk Group, and they will be involved in the game industry in the future."

"I know, they have not yet produced any works, they have just acquired several studios. Moreover, even the major game manufacturers in China cannot make good games, let alone them." Joseph Needham said.

Bright smiled and shook his index finger: "Do you know Lee? Storicaus told me the same thing at the time. The Chinese animation is not worth worrying about, but what about the result? "The Panda Hero" gave them a blow."

"From movies, to anime, to games, Li, can't you see their ambitions? Think about how much time it took to develop from a small Chinese company to now, we have to admit that they are good at creating surprises, and who can guarantee that they will not succeed in the game?"
