Chapter 1199: Bringing in the Mainland?
"The Lion King" grossed $23.3 million on Sundays in North America and $66.8 million in the first three days of its opening weekend.
If you expand this number to the world, it has reached a staggering figure of 240 million US dollars!
Movie screenings in the 80s, like around 2020, generally only give you four weeks of screening time.
People usually take two months, if your movie is very good, and the distribution company is better than the cow, then many second- and third-tier small cities, movie theaters in towns, and it may be screened for more than half a year.
Now, "The Lion King" got a global super box office of $240 million in the first three days of the first weekend, and the word of mouth is overwhelming, and the bet on whether it can reach the box office of $800 million has become a joke.
Those reporters who bet with Yin Jun all thought that there was no such thing, and they didn't say a word when asked.
However, a reporter went to interview Tang Shuxuan, president of the North American branch of Kirin Group.
Tang Shuxuan said Yin Jun's attitude towards this.
"Our chairman said that at the beginning, everyone was just joking, it was no big deal, don't take it to heart. ”
Listening to Tang Shuxuan's words, those reporters who did not participate in the bet felt that Yin Jun had become sleek, and he was unwilling to offend more people when the overall situation was decided.
Even the journalists involved in the gambling game think the same way.
But they are also very grateful, after all, Yin Jun did not use the topic to play, and did not make them ugly.
So in the next few days, they reciprocated the favor and began to brag about "The Lion King" and boast about Yin Jun.
This is not common in news reports.
also took advantage of this east wind, the reputation of "The Lion King" in North America is getting better and better, and the publicity is getting higher and higher, even on the working day of the second week, it basically maintained an attendance rate of more than 70%, which is a very remarkable achievement.
Everyone said that Yin Jun played a good hand and won everyone's respect and gratitude, but in fact, in the eyes of the young man, there was nothing special at all.
At that time, when making a bet, Yin Jun just took the lead and said that his "The Lion King" would quit Hollywood for less than 800 million US dollars, and did not restrain those reporters from doing anything.
The person who takes advantage of words is usually just a small person, and at most it is only a momentary situation.
People who really do business, where do they have the kung fu to talk to others?
If it weren't for the news effect and making people pay more attention to Disney and "The Lion King", Yin Juncai would not have bothered to bet with that group of reporters.
Because the teenager knows that if you don't have the corresponding grades, no matter how beautiful your mouth is, it will be in vain.
Just like Mr. Jia, the miserable situation of LeTV being shattered by him, isn't that more lip service than actual hands-on ability?
On the contrary, as long as you have good grades, even if you don't talk much, then people will scramble to pay attention to you.
Just like SF's boss Wang.
It's just that "The Lion King" reached a global box office of $240 million in the first weekend, which also made Yin Jun very happy.
He was afraid that his script would not be good enough, and these Disney employees made it more than ten years ahead of schedule, resulting in all kinds of inappropriateness, thus leaving the classic in dust.
For people like Yin Jun, who like movies, it is natural to let good movies flourish, but if it is said that good movies become worse than in his previous life, this is what Yin Jun can't bear.
So far, every movie and TV series he has done, even the original "Goodbye Seven Days of Love", is better than in his previous life, not to mention the ones he personally took over in the future.
The "Lion King" in the previous life has been done for two or three years, and Yin Jun's version has only been done for about a year and a half, which has shortened a lot, and Yin Jun is really worried that there will be some differences.
And then there is the fact that there are still more than ten years before the version of the previous life, and whether the current people can and will accept this version is also a question.
Fortunately, the current facts tell Yin Jun that he has thought too much.
A classic is a classic.
Especially the classics that have been revised by Yin Jun, it is even more speechless.
It's no wonder that such a classic animated movie doesn't succeed!
The $240 million global box office of "The Lion King" reached Xiangjiang in the first week, and almost the entire Xiangjiang was jubilant.
Whether you like Yin Jun or not, you have to admit that in this world, the person who can best represent Xiangjiang can only be Yin Jun.
Although the previous box office No. 1 "." was Yin Jun's script, it was produced and distributed by Universal, and it had little to do with Yin Jun.
But now "The Lion King", whether it is from the original script, or the entire production, or the final edit, is all done by Yin Jun and his company.
And Yin Jun is a native of Xiangjiang.
In this way, hasn't "The Lion King" become the pride of Xiangjiang?
They are all looking forward to the fact that it won't be long before "The Lion King" will become the world's No. 1 box office movie, so that everyone will remember that this is a Hong Kong movie!
As for the artists in "The Lion King", more than half of them are from the mainland, and they have been selectively forgotten by many Xiangjiang people.
Not only did they rejoice on the surface, but they also pulled their friends along on various occasions, walked into or walked into the cinema again, and contributed to the box office of "The Lion King" again.
Even the mainland, when they heard about this great achievement, couldn't help but ask Yin Jun, can they introduce this movie to the mainland?
The person who came to contact was Zhang Hongbing.
You read that right.
It was really Zhang Hongbing who came to talk to Yin Jun.
If you put it in ten years...... No, even five years later, with Xiangjiang's ironclad return to the mainland, it is impossible for him to talk to Yin Jun about such a trivial matter.
But now it's so amazing, I thought that the deputy X-level member actually discussed with Yin Jun about the introduction of "The Lion King" to the mainland in a serious manner.
Yin Jun naturally knew the thoughts of Zhang Hongbing and the people above.
Of course, what they care about is not such a movie, but the connection between Hong Kong and the mainland in this delicate situation.
Why subtlety?
My Aunt Satcher was invincible, beating the Pampas Cowboys, and England won in a crushing position.
Originally, the Western media were commenting, thinking that it would take at least two or three years to solve this fight, but I didn't expect it to be over in only two or three months.
For a time, Britain gave everyone an illusion.
The sun doesn't set back!
The British themselves think so, and the Iron Lady has been frequently appearing on TV screens lately, giving various speeches, and the limelight is unparalleled for a while.
Her approval rating has also risen all the way, and now it has an 88% increase, setting a new high since Churchill won World War II.
In such a situation, the Iron Maiden, of course, did not forget an important thing.
She made a lot of remarks on the Xiangjiang issue, many of which were a bit intense, and in order to avoid book 404, Yin Jun will not repeat them.
Thatcher's attitude made the British excited, but in China, it was not so good.
Of course, Xiao Lao and Yun Lao are not afraid, in the face of the coalition forces of dozens of countries, Grandpa Mao and they were not afraid, let alone a sunset England.
They are mainly reluctant to cause more trouble.
Today's reform, reform, and liberalization have just made some achievements, but many aspects have not yet been straightened out, and not much of the capital that comes from abroad dares to come in.
If there is a bit of a moth now, and there is a conflict, so that everyone has a prejudice against China, it will be a very troublesome problem.
At the same time, they can also see that the recent Xiangjiang is a bit unusual, and many people are advocating the goodness of Britain, thinking that a strong and rich Britain can protect them more.
Fortunately, Yin Jun's Kirin Satellite TV and "Kirin Daily" resolutely suppressed this arrogance, and they criticized this idea from all sides.
The mainland is also fortunate to have such a person as Yin Jun who has great influence in Xiangjiang, and he also has so many media resources and so many friends, which is greatly conducive to the work of the Liaison Office in Xiangjiang.
You must know that because of Yin Jun's appearance, whether it is Qiu Degen's ATV, Shao Yifu's wireless, or Aunt Hu's "Pear News", etc., they have not joined this battle at all.
In terms of TV media, Kylin Satellite TV is even more dominant, and all kinds of complaints and criticisms in news programs can be heard by people all over Asia.
Since ancient times, emperors have not been short of hungry soldiers, let alone at such critical moments.
Since Yin Jun has made such a tough statement, it is a bit unreasonable for the mainland not to repay Yin Jun.
Thousands of dollars buy horse bones.
Yin Jun is now the example that the mainland wants to erect.
Xiao Lao and Yun Lao both thought that the rich people, including Li Chaoren, Li Sishu, Zheng Yutong, etc., could introduce their own company business to the mainland, bring more vitality to the mainland's economy, and also bring more confidence to other overseas Chinese billionaires, so that they can also enter the mainland on a large scale.
Therefore, Zhang Hongbing came to negotiate the introduction of "The Lion King".
Of course, this is also reasonable, the introduction of "The Lion King" represents the cultural exchanges between the two places, which are becoming more and more frequent, and everyone can understand each other better.
Another point is that the art production of "The Lion King" was greatly participated by artists from places such as the Shanghai Art Factory, which to a certain extent is also his own person.
As for the fact that there is no American film introduced to China yet, the question of what to review has been selectively ignored by the bigwigs.
In the face of the major rights and wrongs of the country's territorial recovery, these small problems are not problems at all, and they cannot become problems.
Those audit opinions are not enough to be an obstacle at all, it is best if there is no difficulty, and you have to overcome it for me if there is a difficulty!!
