Chapter 879: Complete Victory
Time flies, and in a flash, it's already mid-August.
The vigorous summer file is about to pass.
In the past few months, many blockbusters have also begun to cool down.
In this frenetic summer file, there is no doubt that "Pirate League 2: Soul Coffin" is the elite of the elite and the best of the best!
It is the box office champion of the summer file!
In 38 days of release, the global box office exceeded $1 billion!
Among them, the North American box office is 440 million US dollars, and the overseas box office is 580 million US dollars!
Following "Titanic", "Star Wars Prequel 1", "Spider-Man 1", "Unsinkable", "Spider-Man 2", and "Lord of the Rings 3", the 7th film in history with a global box office of more than $1 billion was born!
With the success of the film, director Gore Wibinski also entered the public eye.
Especially those in the industry in Hollywood.
Almost all of them were speechless in shock.
Today's Hollywood has not yet completed the ideological upgrade, and its understanding of movies is still based on "creativity", and it is not known that "technology" has reached the market demand level comparable to "creativity".
They are still in shock, and the doubts in their hearts cannot be solved for a long time.
The previous $1 billion box office directors were Donn Walker, James Cameron, Ridley Scott and Peter Jackson, each of whom was a big name!
What is Gore Verbinski?
How did he become one of the directors who made a single film at the box office of $1 billion?
You know, this is an achievement that even Spielberg, George Lucas, Robert Zemeckis, Roland Emmerich and other commercial film directors have not achieved.
The film industry in the new era is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
Could it be ...... Don really has the ability to turn stone into gold, the "Pirate League" series is the pirate movie world he created, he is the director of this series, and it is his existence that boosts Gore Verbinski?
There is no way to know.
In short, people are panicking.
The shock brought by "Pirate League 2: Soul Coffin" to the industry is even more violent than when Donn was a fledgling in Hollywood!
Donn's first movie was a box office hit, but "Titanic" is really good and classic, and the high box office is a matter of course.
The box office miracle of "Pirate League 2: Gathering Soul Coffin" is really incomprehensible.
In contrast, some other movies in the summer file are more in line with psychological expectations.
Runner-up: "Shrek 2", $430 million at the North American box office and $920 million at the global box office. "The Lion King" surpassed $858 million and "Finding Nemo" exceeded $867 million, becoming the highest-grossing animated film in history.
Third runner-up: "Ghost Rider", $230 million in North America and $580 million worldwide. The film's North American popularity has completely passed, and the number of theaters still being released has dropped to 380, and there is still residual heat in overseas areas, which is expected to ...... The global box office will exceed $600 million.
No. 4: "The Day After Tomorrow", with a North American box office of $186 million and a global box office of $520 million.
No. 5: "Doomsday Comes" grossed $130 million in North America and $330 million worldwide.
No. 6: "Mechanical Public Enemy", the film was released for three weeks, grossed $120 million in North America and $280 million worldwide.
No. 7: "Spy 2", with a box office of $160 million in North America and $240 million worldwide.
In eighth place, it is Warner's "Troy", in ninth place is Twentieth Century Fox's "Dodgeball Madness", and in tenth place is Disney's "Princess Diaries 2......
As for the blockbuster "King Arthur", "Catwoman", "Around the World in 80 Days" and "The Unfortunate Adventures of Raymond Snicky", all of them failed miserably, none of them exceeded $50 million at the North American box office, and the global box office failed to exceed 100 million.
Although the summer season is not completely over yet, and the movies are still in theaters, it is unlikely that the box office will exceed $100 million.
New Globe Group once again dominates the summer season!
During this time, it may be because the box office results of New Universal are really gratifying, or it may be because Donn has made great contributions to Hollywood, or because Donn has taken Harvey Weinstein and exposed the scandal in the gymnastics industry that is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
In short, the major media began to blow tricks!
It is simply the heaven and earth that holds Tang En, unique.
It's a rare movie wizard!
Time even ran a special edition dedicated to a series of outstanding film achievements of Donn over the past few years.
At this time, Donn had blocked the Queen's Bridge in New York.
"It's almost time, shoot the last one!"
At this time, Donn, wearing a short-sleeved shirt, was standing on the bridge, holding a walkie-talkie in his hand, shouting loudly.
Here, is a set of scenes in which "Spider-Man" appeared in "The Avengers".
"Spider-Man" James Franco drove a car with his wife and daughter.
Suddenly, the hairs on his hands stood on end, and a spider sense appeared.
Something big is happening.
In Marvel Studios' planning, his daughter is the successor of "Spider-Man" "Spider-Man", and she is the replacement for James Franco after retirement. So there was no need to hide his identity, he put on a spider suit under the surprised eyes of his infant daughter, and used spider silk to swing across the spectacular Queen's Bridge and run towards New York's Grand Central Station.
There, Loki is coming, there's a big fight!
The movie version and the comic book version are slightly different, but the positioning of "Spider-Man" is relatively unified, and he belongs to the marginalized people of the "Avengers".
Iron Man, Thor, Ant-Man, Wasp, Hulk, and later superheroes such as Captain America and Black Widow are the real core.
Although "Spider-Man" has great superpowers, he is only a civilian hero, and he cannot be compared with those superheroes who have backers and backgrounds.
In fact, in the comics, there is no "Spider-Man" in "The Avengers" at all, but later this character is too popular and is the hottest superhero in Marvel.
In order to attract popularity, Marvel has made "Spider-Man" appear in various institutions, parallel universes, multiverses, and reset universes.
In Marvel's superheroes, almost every character has crossed paths with Spider-Man.
In the comics, there was no Spider-Man in the first issue of "The Avengers", but in order to attract popularity, Don had to add drama to him and get him involved.
Not the core, of course.
Even when he wants to participate in the war and fight against the powerful Loki Army with the Avengers, superheroes such as Iron Man, Thor, and Ant-Man must resolutely oppose it, for fear that he will not be able enough and be hurt.
When it came to the finale, Iron Man sent a nuclear bomb out of outer space, destroyed the battleship of the Loki Legion, ran out of fuel and fell to his death, but it was Spider-Man who intervened in time to save him.
Only then did everyone officially accept Spider-Man, and in the last shot of the movie, they announced to Spider-Man: "Welcome to Spider-Man!"
Of course, that's all for later.
The filming cycle of the movie is very long.
This summer, it will take two months to shoot.
Tomorrow summer, there's another month of green screen shooting in the studio.
"OK, it's okay, call it a day!"
Donn was efficient and declared the end after James Franco made a jump gesture when he ran to the Queen's Bridge in his spider suit.
The traffic here is too heavy.
The crew only applied to the city government for a one-hour filming period, and it was impossible to make more complex and difficult actions.
The footage of the spider silk swinging across the Queen's Bridge does not have to be filmed in real time.
Anyway, the surrounding scenery of the Queen's Bridge has been filmed, and that kind of difficult action scene will be good when it is filmed on the green screen next year, and it will be synthesized in post-production.
If you follow the traditional realistic shooting method, you really hang up the coercion and let the action stuntman put on his uniform and jump off the Queen's Bridge...... Not to mention 1 hour, this kind of scene can't be filmed in 10 hours!
It takes 5 hours just to prepare for the preparation and safety checks!
After the work is completed, Don doesn't have to worry about the follow-up work.
He was not polite and went straight into the RV.
The air conditioner was on in the car and it was cool.
Ella Fisher had been staying in the car, and when she saw Donn, she had a ruddy and excited expression on her face.
"What's wrong?"
"Good news!"
"What's the matter?"
"You don't know?"
Don was angry and funny, "I'm busy making movies here, what do I know?"
Ella Fisher pursed her lips and smiled: "If you make a movie, you are almost isolated from the world! This is a big news sensation in the New York business circle!"
"Oh, that's not about me. ”
Tang Enman shrugged nonchalantly.
The core of his industry is in the circle of New York, California...... He didn't know each other well, and he didn't come and go with him often.
There are more politics involved here, and Don is not interested.
Ella Fisher shook her head and said, "You are wrong, this matter is really related to you!"
"Hmm, is it News Corp.? or is it the New York Times?" Donn asked curiously.
Ella Fisher said, "Neither, it's Viacom!"
"Viacom?"
Don's eyes suddenly narrowed into a slit, as if he had thought of something.
This summer, Paramount released a total of five films, including "King Arthur" and "The Unfortunate Adventures of Raymond Snick", both super productions that cost more than $150 million to produce.
However, the box office was miserable.
Except for the youth idol drama "Mean Girl", Paramount can't make any achievements.
Lei Shidong's "Revival Paramount" plan, which he had painstakingly operated for four years, was completely declared a failure.
Dragged down by this, Viacom's share price continued to fall throughout the summer.
As a result, Viacom's market capitalization is only $26.5 billion!
That's only $50 more than Twentieth Century Fox!
You know, Twentieth Century Fox is nothing more than the entertainment industry owned by News Corp.
Viacom Group's position in the industry should be a notch higher than News Corporation.
Three years ago, Lei Shidong bullied others and fiercely suppressed Tang Enyi.
Since the completion of mergers and acquisitions and industrial integration of New Globe Group last year, Tang's retaliation has begun.
In the next few encounters, Tang En repeatedly took the lead, while Lei Shidong was repeatedly frustrated.
Especially this summer, Lei Shidong used almost all his resources and connections to promote a high-level MPAA meeting.
As a result, Don En actually played a hand of export to domestic sales, and pulled up the tiger skin of South Korea!
Not only did he pass the test calmly, but he also became a hero of change in Hollywood!
The negotiations between the MPAA and the Korean Film Association went very smoothly.
It is very likely that the contract will be officially signed in September.
This can be regarded as an explanation from the MPAA to President George W. Bush, after all, the MPAA is nothing in the handling of the "Fahrenheit 911" incident.
With this achievement, President George W. Bush's re-election election will be more certain.
Now Don En has a golden body and is invincible!
What can Lei Shidong do?
Viacom's stock price has to be saved, right?
Viacom Group officially announced...... The business will be split!" Ella Fisher's eyes sparkled, and she knew that in this war, Don had won a complete victory.
Lei Shidong, who was helpless, had to dismember the media empire he had worked so hard to build.
