This time Howard Stringer, CEO of Sony Columbia Pictures, came to see Abel.

It's because since October last year.

On the American Internet and some entertainment media, there are some voices that are unfavorable to Sony Columbia.

As early as last October, not long after Abel acquired MGM.

A voice emerged on American Internet forums and various portals.

Many American netizens claim that he is one of the iconic superheroes who symbolizes the American spirit and the bravery and kindness of Americans.

Spider-Man Parker.

His copyright is actually held by an American company controlled by Neon Man?

Does this mean that the Neon Man is secretly plotting behind the scenes, trying to darken this symbol of the American spirit?

The sound was relatively quiet at first, but as time went by, the sound became louder and louder.

It has become so big that even Sony and Columbia Pictures cannot ignore it.

Sony Columbia Pictures began to intervene and tried some efforts.

But with little success, the voices on the Internet are getting louder and louder.

Originally it was just the sound on the Internet network.

Sony Columbia will take it seriously, but it won't really take it too seriously.

At this time, many elites did not realize the horror of the Internet.

The problem is, it came after December last year.

A member of the U.S. Congress also raised these issues on the Internet.

The congressman even said that he would launch a proposal in Congress.

The content of the proposal is to prohibit companies and works that symbolize the United States or have the American spirit from falling into the hands of foreigners.

This proposal has not been put forward yet, it is just a piece of news.

It has received support from many American netizens.

After being exposed by the mass media, it also gained support from more Americans.

It is said that this helped the congressman's approval rating increase by several percentage points in his own constituency.

By this time, Sony Columbia Pictures was starting to get nervous.

They also started taking action, starting to intervene and lobby.

After they start to intervene and lobby.

They discovered that more attacks in this area were coming towards Sony Colombia.

Especially after entering this year, since January.

Another congressman in his district proposed a similar proposal.

In the DC special area.

The people from Sony Columbia tried their best to contact the "General Council for the Arts and Humanities", a department referred to as pcah.

This department was established in 1982 and is directly overseen by White House.

Its power and role are similar to the U.S. Department of Culture.

The people of pcah are under the power of Sony Colombia’s dollar bills.

They told Sony Columbia's Howard Stringer.

"Just sell those things you shouldn't have."

What are the things we shouldn’t have?

Howard Stringer was stunned.

Then Howard Stringer came to his senses.

This reminds me of the public opinion that began to ferment on the Internet last year.

Spider-Man!

In addition, MGM has been in contact and negotiating with Sony Columbia on behalf of Marvel since November last year.

Marvel wants to buy back the rights to Spider-Man.

Howard Stringer suddenly understood something.

The president of Sony Colombia spent some more connections and resources.

Finally, in the DC Special Administrative Region, the source of this incident was roughly determined.

That's why today, Howard Stringer came to our door specifically.

Abel at his beach house in Hawaii.

Hosted one of the Hollywood giants.

In the living room where Cameron was received.

Abel met Howard Stringer.

Howard Stringer is not a standard American.

He was born in the UK in 1942, and became an American citizen in 1985. He is now a dual citizen.

Although American law allows the existence of dual citizenship, many people also have different feelings towards the UK.

But in this case of "foreigners possessing American spiritual symbols".

Howard Stringer, the original British CEO, and his dual nationality.

It has also been used as an attack on the Internet.

Even if Howard Stringer is a typical Unsa.

Ordinary Americans, after being incited, don't care about this.

All they know is that Spider-Man, whom everyone has loved since childhood, is one of the spiritual symbols of American civilians.

He was actually robbed by the Neon Man!

This is almost equivalent to the fact that in China, Sun Dasheng's copyright is actually held by a Chinese film company controlled by Neon.

Even the citizens of a big country can’t stand this kind of thing!

When you are fine, you will be fine.

If someone is inciting public opinion and looking for trouble on the Internet.

Then this matter can be big or small.

At present, things are already relatively big.

Didn’t you see that all the MPs came out to speak?

In order to calm down the incident, Howard Stringer had to come to the house.

As soon as I came to the door, after seeing Abel.

Howard Stringer got straight to the point:

"Mr. Smith, what can Columbia Pictures do to satisfy you?"

This kind of thing can be done, but Abel will not admit it.

Abel deliberately puzzled and said:

"What are you talking about? Mr. Stringer, I don't understand what you mean."

Howard Stringer smiled bitterly and said, "Then I'll tell you the truth. Mr. Smith, many Americans are now doubting that we hold the copyright to Spider-Man."

"But the problem is that when Marvel sold the copyright, the entire process was reasonable and legal."

Hearing what Howard Stringer said, Abel smiled lightly.

"It's definitely legal. If it's illegal, the transaction that year won't be approved."

Abel said softly:

"It's not necessarily reasonable. A cultural and spiritual symbol of American civilians was sold for US$6 million."

"Is this reasonable? Then I'll pay you $6 million, and you can help me go to Neon and sell me copyrights like Doraemon?"

Howard Stringer felt that Abel was trying to make excuses.

Before superhero movies were successful.

Doraemon and other popular neon anime IPs are much more profitable than American superheroes.

Besides, 6 million, Marvel itself agreed to it back then.
