Chapter 137: Awesome! The Justice League fan-edit goes viral! [Seeking monthly votes! 3]
"Okay."
"I'll consider it."
After listening to the conversation on the other end of the phone for a while, Qin Mu said softly.
The other party was very sincere.
Extremely sincere!
Besides offering a salary of two million per episode, they also covered resources, publicity, operations, and everything else—they took care of it all.
"Brother Qin, we await your good news!"
The person on the other end didn't sound disappointed at all and said hurriedly.
After hanging up.
He chatted with Song Meina about some work matters.
"You'll have to bear with living in a hotel for these two days."
"Once we get to Kyoto, we'll set up a studio; it'll be a better working environment."
Qin Mu said.
This was something he had planned long ago.
After all, now that he had an assistant, they couldn't discuss work at home every time, right?
It was better to have an office space.
"Alright."
"If you have any questions, Boss, remember to call me."
After finishing the work notes for the day, Song Meina waved with a smile and left on her own.
After watching her leave, Qin Mu opened his computer.
As soon as he opened it, countless private messages popped up.
They were from the 'Photography and Editing' forum he had forgotten to close last time.
"Big Boss, the Justice League edit you made is explosive! Can you teach us some editing techniques?"
"Big Boss, are you taking apprentices? The kind that can warm the bed!"
"Awesome! Which master is this? How come I've never seen them before?"
"Can you share the video? The non-profit kind; I just want to show it to my friends."
"Big Boss, can I repost it? I'll definitely give you credit!"
After reading through them.
'Constant exclamations,' 'praise and flattery,' and 'begging to be an apprentice' took up the majority.
The rest were all asking if it could be shared.
Such a great work—if it only circulated in a small forum, it would be a waste of talent!
'That works too.'
After thinking about it, Qin Mu felt it was feasible.
Gaining recognition from others could earn him points.
He had glanced at it earlier; this "Justice League Fan-Edit" had already brought him two points.
But that was the limit, as the forum's fan base was only so large.
If he shared it out, he should get quite a few more.
Soon, he edited the post: It can be shared, but not for commercial use, and please credit the original post location. Violations will be pursued.
Standard language.
After finishing, Qin Mu went to wash his face, and when he came back to check.
A huge wave of comments had appeared instantly.
"Holy cow! The Big Boss has appeared!"
"Thank you, Big Boss, I will definitely credit the original post."
"666, soaking up some of the Big Boss's aura at close range."
"Haha, finally I can share the video with my roommates. They've been craving it for a long time, but without the Big Boss's permission, I didn't dare show it to anyone else."
"Big Boss, I'm a girl, do you take female apprentices?"
The next day.
Qin Mu began preparing for the move. After all, having lived in Guishi for nearly half a year, there were still many things to take care of.
Additionally, Song Meina wasn't idle either; her email and phone hadn't stopped since she woke up.
Countless companies were extending olive branches to her boss.
She also diligently recorded the good job offers, waiting to present them to her boss all at once later.
And at this very moment.
On the internet, a "movie-watching" craze had been set off.
After the box office and word-of-mouth failure of Justice League, the release of the director's cut, followed by another mysterious fan-edit, had once again pushed fan enthusiasm to its peak!
"Hey, have you guys watched it? That fan-edit is too explosive! It got my blood boiling!"
"I watched it too! I can only say it's awesome! The more I watch, the more I want to curse the DC editor. What a piece of trash!"
"Yeah! If this fan-edit had been released as the final film, I dare say it would definitely have had a spot in the top five domestic box office hits at the time!"
"It's here! The welfare for us big DC fans is here! It's so good!"
"To be honest, I think this fan-edit really incorporates all the essence of the director's cut, and most importantly, the story doesn't drag at all!"
Waves of discussion were happening all over the internet.
On Tieba, Weibo, official accounts, and free movie forums.
And so on.
As long as someone was sharing the "New Justice League Fan-Edit."
That post would absolutely be exploding with clicks and comments.
Of course, every post indicated the original post location.
Publisher: 'Mu'.
Publishing address: 'Photography and Editing'.
And precisely because of this.
The daily search volume for the 'Photography and Editing' forum reached a historical high.
The number of fans skyrocketed by over 50, 00 in just half a day!
This was a huge boost to this remote forum, which had only had twenty or thirty thousand fans after operating for several years.
"Holy crap! Big Boss!"
"A real Big Boss!"
"Too awesome!"
At this moment, the forum moderator, Wang Yu, was staring at the computer screen.
He sat there grinning foolishly for ten minutes!
A trashy, small forum was, under the influence of a Big Boss, on the verge of becoming a medium-sized one!
Clapping!
Clapping!
After coming to his senses, Wang Yu hurriedly typed on his keyboard.
He sent a private message to 'Mu': "Big Boss, this little brother would like to treat you to a meal. Are you free?"
On the correct posture of a sycophantic little brother!
Meanwhile, on the north shore of the ocean, in the United States.
"Zack."
"Your cut has finally regained a bit of reputation for you."
In a large villa, two middle-aged men sat opposite each other, sipping tea carefully.
It had to be said, this afternoon drink from China was truly delicious.
Much better than any cola or coffee.
"Sigh."
"What's the use?"
The director was distressed.
The flop of 'Justice League' was a pain in his heart.
He had been making movies for decades and was exceptionally cautious in script selection and creation.
It could be said that, except for the works he made when he first started as a director which were not very mature, which of his later works hadn't been a huge success in both box office and reputation?
This Justice League had cost him so much effort, but a wave of crazy operations by the DC company had directly caused the whole thing to collapse!
Every time he saw the 43% score on Rotten Tomatoes, he felt a pang of heartache.
"That's why I say, don't let capital get too involved."
"It will affect our thinking."
The slightly chubby, blonde middle-aged man gave a bitter smile.
He had suffered this pain before.
So now, he only had one requirement when making a movie: 'I have full control over the production rights of the film'!
"Nolan, you have the strength and the capital to negotiate."
