Chapter Ninety-Three: Propaganda (Fourth Update)

"Joker", Shen Ming's personal investment of 19 million - his personal salary was converted into investment.

It accounts for more than a third of the total investment...

Of course, it is impossible for one-third of the income to go to him, and at most he enjoys a box office share and subsequent overseas copyrights...

As for the most profitable peripheral development, you don't have to think about it.

That's also remarkable, according to the prediction: the North American box office is over 300 million, the overseas box office is over 400 million, the cost is only 55 million US dollars, and Warner Bros. can get at least 300 million US dollars!

Ming Tsai can divide one-third.

directly broke Downey's salary record - the latter got a salary of $75 million in "Avengers 4"...

Of course, it doesn't compare, Downey is a pure actor contract: $20 million + eight percent of global box office revenue;

Shen Ming is a salary of 11 million US dollars, he invested 12 million, and the other 7 million was converted into investment...

As for "Annihilation"...

The film paid for itself: after Paramount held a test screening, most critics, including the audience, said, 'I can't understand it, it's too profound!'

Then Paramount came up with a way to sell the distribution rights to Netflix in addition to China and the United States, recovering nearly $40 million in production costs - the investment in the whole show was $55 million...

Why is Netflix willing to take over?

In a sense, Netflix has become a "waste recycling station".

When the big studios are not confident in the box office of a movie, selling it to Netflix is an excellent way to make money, so as to reduce losses, and Netflix is also open to bad movies, because they want to expand the resource pool to attract and increase the number of users, and word of mouth is secondary.

The third part of the Clover series, "Clover's Paradox", starring in the international chapter, is that 'in order to solve the resource crisis, astronauts from various countries gathered on the space station to conduct particle accelerator experiments. ’

Originally, it was also produced and distributed by Paramount, but after the internal test screening, the word-of-mouth was a mess, and Ramon Pictures also knew that this film was not good, and finally sold the copyright to Netflix for $50 million...

It's the same with Annihilation...

It turns out that Paramount was right!

"Annihilation" grossed only $32 million in North America;

China's box office is only more than 80 million...

After deducting the issuance fee, there was almost no profit...

Cheng Xiao's female No. 4 did not take the blame, and the female No. 1 Natalie Portman and director Alex Garland were brought out for various criticisms...

Director Alex Garland was upset: "Our film is made for theaters. Although I don't resist small screens... But from my point of view, and from the perspective of many of the filmmakers, it was made for the big screen. ”

His last movie "Ex Machina" was considered a masterpiece by many audiences, although the box office was $25 million, the cost was less than $18 million, which was quite successful...

But these inadequacies make him pretend to be forced...

The box office failure of "Annihilation" did have some impact on Cheng Xiao, but she was not ready to put up a flag in Hollywood, and she couldn't act in a movie, so she acted in a TV series...

Signed with ACC, who helped her contact a Netflix suspense drama, "Female Flight Attendant"...

……

On October 19, Shen Ming left the crew and went to Busan.

The Korean box office performance of "Joker" is surprisingly good!

Directly won 2 million moviegoers in the first weekend!

Directly won the Korean box office champion for 15 consecutive days, breaking the 5 million mark!

Judging from the current trend, it is not a problem to win 8 million moviegoers in the end!

It has directly become the second largest overseas ticket warehouse - the first is of course the United Kingdom...

In fact, South Korea chose to count the number of moviegoers because many theaters refused to calculate box office revenue due to tax and other issues, resulting in a lack of accurate movie ticket sales data.

The advantage is that the popular 2D movies and small-budget movies with lower ticket prices can be at the top of the list, but the disadvantage is that there will be a large error in calculating the box office results according to the number of moviegoers - the ticket price of 3D movies is different from the ticket price of 2D movies!

The average ticket price of "Joker" is 8,000 won, and 8 million moviegoers are...

More than fifty million dollars anyway...

Of course, Shen Ming wants to thank the audience and participate in the Busan Film Festival by the way...

Thanks to the audience, it is probably to participate in variety shows!

In recent years, Hollywood has become more and more popular, and when it comes to South Korea to promote, it is no longer the previous interviews and the like, you have to participate in variety shows...

Xiao Cheap came to South Korea to promote the movie "Deadpool 2", he refused the invitation of many TV stations and decided to star in MBC's "The Masked Singer", and he sang an English song on the show that day...

Jack?? Blake has starred twice in MBC's "Infinite Challenge";

When "Mission Impossible 6" was promoted, Tom Cruise, Henry Cavill and Simon Page starred in the variety show "Running man"...

Shen Ming chose the JTBC variety show "Brother I Know" and appeared for about ten minutes.

I almost uttered something like 'If 'Joker' outperforms Deadpool 2 at the box office, I'll kill two bottles of soju!'

The whole person is dizzy...

You think that after 16 hours of long-distance flight and 17 hours of jet lag, Ming Tsai participated in the show completely with that groggy head...

I can't remember what I said, but after the show ended, he went back to the hotel and had a good night's sleep...

……

Ming Tsai's resilience has always been good.

The next day I was in good spirits!

came to South Korea, of course, I want to make an appointment with an old friend, but Lin Yuna's state is a little haggard...

“… What's wrong with you?"

"No, I didn't have an accident, it's one of my sisters..."

Lin Yuna is definitely a lucky star this year, and the starring movie "Extreme Escape" won the Korean summer box office championship with 9.41 million viewers.

The annual box office is second only to the 10.07 million people of "Parasite"...

Directly transformed into a film actor.

But her company SM. was very unhappy, and one of its female artists 'committed suicide'...

"Mourning and change..."

Lin Yuna squeezed out a smile, and then asked, "Why did you come to South Korea?"

"I'm here to promote 'Joker', and by the way, I'm going to the film festival..."

"I'm going to participate too... Eh, I don't want to go!"

"Then don't go, you're in a special situation now, there will be people everywhere... Damn, is that a candid paparazzi?"

Lin Yun'er glanced at it and nodded: "It's okay, my assistant is also next to me, they won't report blindly!"

"That's good. ”

Although he was ready to wrap up, Brother Ming didn't want to feed SHI...

"At most, it's just gossip about our relationship!"

“… I have a girlfriend!"

"I know, I didn't want you to see the tattoo on my chest!"

"What? where is the tattoo?"

“… I'm kidding! Wang Xiaobo's "Golden Age", haven't you seen it?"

Shen Ming nodded solemnly: "I'll see it!"

“… Come with me, it's so uncomfortable!"

“…”

Ming Tsai hesitated for a moment, but didn't dare to nod...
