DHe is a Hollywood actress, a very wealthy Hollywood actress based on average income. Scarlett Johansson The Disney Group has been sued. She didn’t want to make money from the company’s income from the movie “Black Widow”, in which Johnson played a superhero. What’s even stranger is that Johansson deliberately reduced the number of movie tickets sold by directly starting the streaming evaluation, that is, too close to the beginning of the rental period, and asked her to share a payment that the group did not voluntarily collect.
Disney is obviously more important than the short-term ticket balance for medium and long-term control over the development channels provided by the “content” it generates. This is a bit like the Chinese Communist Party pushing Alibaba and other Chinese companies to go public, because from a socialist perspective, this means more than surface value to them. In China, capitalists complain about it, but not in Disney.
In the comics she took, the black widow was worth a lot in the dispute between Johnson and Disney, not from the People’s Republic of China, but from the Soviet Union. But the question of power (should I do what I was assigned to do, or should I oppose the plan above?), like her current actress, is no different from a disobedient Chinese billionaire-yet , There is a better precedent.
Respect for creativity
The film industry may now repeat what the highest-paid man in the comics industry had achieved decades ago, namely the respect for excessive creative people. Not an actress, but a cartoonist named Neal Adams, the industry superstar at the time, through the public humiliation of Marvel and the competition between the owner of the comic book publisher DC, Warner, at least partly corrected this symbolically The company has given shabby treatment to the inventors of characters such as Captain America and Superman, that is, the inventors of characters such as Jack Kirby, Jerry Siegel, and Joe Shuster, who have been subjected to low salaries and cheating for decades.
The team of heroes that Black Widow first appeared on the screen was called the “Avengers”; the older German translation of the source material called them the “Glorious Avengers”. Perhaps businessmen in the cultural industry should carefully read the texts that capitalize on exploitation.
