Chapter 463: Brother Long and Brother Tiger Make a Lot of Money
In Hong Kong, "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" set a box office record of 49 million!
Overseas distributions are even more sold!
At the DreamWorks meeting, Shi Nansheng reported the good news to Wang Zifan: "At present, "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" is still being screened in Taiwan and other places, and a month later, the dividends will be counted, and according to past experience, DreamWorks will have about 80 million Hong Kong dollars in dividends in Southeast Asia!"
"Eighty million! That's it?"
Cheng Long was surprised and delighted, he couldn't help but dance with his hands, the films he directed before, the overseas dividends were only twenty or thirty million, but he didn't expect this small test, it tripled at once, and it was only in Southeast Asia, this is an unexpected joy, according to the company's share agreement, DreamWorks joint issuance, you can get seven dividends, he can get two dividends, and the remaining one bonus stays in the company, as a working capital, he can get more than 10 million.
Shi Nansheng smiled: "I was also surprised by the overseas box office, but this is good news for DreamWorks." ”
Hong Jinbao couldn't see Cheng Long's scratching of his ears and cheeks, and teased: "Ah Long, don't you understand what it means to be a tax-free movie, not only Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, I don't know how many interest groups are eyeing this piece of fat, which indirectly drove the box office of "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" to continue to increase, and "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" is a hit, of course these interest groups like to see it, so behind your "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother", I don't know how many people are supporting it. ”
Cheng Long said proudly: "It seems that I have also done a big thing for people's hearts!"
Hong Jinbao struck: "At least half of your 80 million box office is brushed out." ”
"You're jealous!" Cheng Long grinned, showing a villain's expression, and said smugly: "80 million overseas box office, plus 50 million local box office, a total of more than 130 million, I think it will definitely break the Hong Kong movie box office record, this record will last for at least two years!"
Xu Ke, Zeng Zhiwei, Mecca and others lowered their heads, their shoulders shrugged, Cheng Long looked like a three-year-old child now, as if he had gotten some fun toys.
Wang Zifan shook his head helplessly, Cheng Long really lost face for him and Hong Jinbao, he is also an important backbone of DreamWorks, why is the gap so big!
Shi Nansheng chuckled: "According to the news from Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, the box office of "Five Lucky Stars" has been counted, not counting Southeast Asian countries, only these three places, the overseas dividends have exceeded 100 million!"
Cheng Long's frantic movements stopped and smacked his lips. Although the total domestic box office of "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" won "Five Lucky Stars", the overseas box office temporarily lost, but his film was not released in Yuben, South Korea, etc., and he asked: "What is the box office of "Five Lucky Stars"?"
Shi Nansheng sighed: "It's a pity that this film can't be released in the United States and Europe, excluding a fraction, it's about 143 million." ”
Hong Jinbao's expression was sluggish, and it seemed that he had been hit hard, and then asked: "What about Malaysia, Singapore, and Thailand?"
Shi Nansheng shook his head and said, "It's already counted in it!"
"Oh!" Hong Jin replied, and soon became normal, and his movie still lost to Cheng Long.
Is it because he is not handsome?
Wang Zifan said with a smile: ""Brother and Brother" has 80 million overseas dividends, which has exceeded my expectations, Along, you can find a time to prepare the sequel to "Brother and Brother", and it is true to make a lot of money while this shareholder trend is still there." ”
If this movie wants to be released in the United States, even if no one releases it now, when he withdraws from the Plaza Agreement, he will also bring it to the big screen in the United States!
Cheng Long smiled bitterly: "Afan, I watch the sequel to "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother", it takes at least half a year to prepare, whether it is the script or the filming location, it is really troublesome, Afan, you used to be known as the screenwriter saint, why don't you write me one?"
Mai Shen feels the same way, since "Best Partner" became popular, several sequels have been filmed, and the plot is also the same, there is nothing new at all, Cheng Long wants to break through, it is very difficult.
Wang Zifan didn't have the heart to help write the script, and replied: "You can do the script yourself." ”
After all, it is a senior brother, Hong Jinbao said with a smile: "Ah Long, Ah Fan doesn't have time to write a script, you can let him write an outline!"
Cheng Long turned his sorrow into joy and said excitedly: "Afan, you can't refuse this request! Just like you said, the sooner the sequel to "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" is put on the big screen, the more money you will make!"
"You guys!" Wang Zifan couldn't cry or laugh, forget it and help him once, his memory has become more and more blurred recently, and he can't write down the script as much as before, the outline is no problem, this "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother" was filmed by Cheng Long himself, which is definitely different from the one he has seen, he can process that one, turn his head and send it to Cheng Long.
Although it is suspected of coping with errands, it can definitely be a big seller!
Cheng Long is thunderous about Wang Zifan's screenwriting ability, but he is light-hearted, and he always thinks that the script written by Wang Zifan is written by a screenwriter at DreamWorks, and he just fills in his name, but today's performance of Cheng Long makes him doubt his judgment, is Wang Zifan really like the legend?
Shi Nansheng reminded: "Mr. Wang, doesn't the company also have an adventure film to shoot recently? This has no impact on "Dragon Brother and Tiger Brother", right?"
Cheng Long also looked at Wang Zifan curiously, he had also heard of this film, the script was written by Wang Zifan himself, and the actors had already been decided, and the script was sent half a month in advance, all kinds of signs show that Wang Zifan attaches great importance to this film.
Since the establishment of DreamWorks, only two films have enjoyed this treatment, one is "Modern Bodyguard", the other is "Best Partner", both are Hong Kong milestone films, the film "Best Partner" is the first time that a Hong Kong film has won a heavyweight award at the Cannes Film Festival, and the film "Modern Bodyguard" has broken many records since the opening of Hong Kong, and even local British newspapers have reported the news.
Wang Zifan said with a smile: "The name of the film is "The True Color of Heroes", and I plan to ask Zhou Yanfa to play it, so that it will not affect your brothers' performance." ”
When Hong Jinbao heard that it was Zhou Runfa starring, he was immediately relieved, that Zhou Yanfa played Xu Wenqiang okay, let him play kung fu, and the audience would not buy it, and said with a smile: "This is no problem, if the crew has a play, I can help at any time." ”
Since Wang Zifan's business has become bigger and bigger, Hong Jinbao's social status has gradually improved, and he said to the outside world that Wang Zifan is my good brother, and he can eat anywhere, and those film dealers are even more polite!
You must know that these film studios are not good men and women, they are all black and white giants in their respective countries, and they dare to speak cruelly when they meet a tycoon like Zou Wenhuai, but they are polite in front of him!
The reason for this, he should be clear!
