Chapter 990: Hot box office

What does this mean, this means that if nothing else, the box office of "Twilight: New Moon" can guarantee 200 million US dollars in the United States alone, and as for the total box office, it depends on the overseas box office market.

Although the overseas box office market is very unstable, with the nature and characteristics of the movie "Twilight New Moon", to put it bluntly, it is the biggest feature that attracts female fans to watch, and it is estimated that the box office will not be very miserable, judging from the situation of "Twilight, Twilight", the overseas box office of "Twilight: New Moon" has reached 200 million US dollars, and if you add the box office results of "Twilight New Moon" in North America, this also means that the box office of "Twilight New Moon" has reached 500 million US dollars, which is not a big problem.

Although it's not the $600 million that Jin Yufan said, Simon doesn't care about this, and Twentieth Century Fox doesn't care about either, as long as the movie box office is good and can make money, that's fine. The box office of 500 million US dollars is really good compared to the investment of only 50 million US dollars, and the total investment of only 100 million US dollars including publicity costs.

Of course, for Jin Yufan personally, or the entire "Twilight Crescent" crew, and even Twentieth Century Fox, the box office of "Twilight: Crescent" can be better, naturally better, for which everyone can cooperate very happily to stimulate the box office of "Twilight Crescent" as much as possible, so that the box office of "Twilight New Moon" is higher.

When Kim Yu-fan returned to his home in Santa Monica and was sleeping, Kristen Stewart's phone call immediately made Kim Yu-fan depressed, but then happy.

The reason is very simple, that is, Kristen Stewart excitedly told Jin Yufan on the phone that the box office of "Twilight: New Moon" came out on the first day, and under Jin Yufan's curious inquiry, Kristen Stewart said a result that made Jin Yufan stunned.

$75 million! That's right. "Twilight: New Moon" grossed $75 million on its first day. Perhaps because of Jin Yufan's survival, coupled with the previous conflict with the American media, the American media frantically attacked Jin Yufan, and the director of the film got the benefits of publicity, and the box office performance of "Twilight: New Moon" on the first day increased by more than $3 million compared with the original version.

When Kim Yu-beom learns about the first-day box office results of "Twilight: New Moon" from Kristen Stewart. Where is there still the heart to sleep, simply and Kristen Stewart is better when the time comes to meet again at the celebration banquet, hang up the phone and start thinking carefully.

If you talk about the box office of the "Twilight" movie series, there is an obvious feature, that is, the box office crash the next day is terrifying, and it is normal to plummet by 30% and 40%, even if it is 50%.

What does that mean, if the box office on the first day is $100 million, then the box office plummets by 50% on the second day. means that there is only 50 million US dollars at the box office, so calculated, the box office collapse of the "Twilight" movie series is really terrifying, and it can even be called terrifying.

If the "Twilight" movie series is going to be released for a long time by word of mouth, and then accumulate the box office, it is estimated that I don't know how to die, word of mouth, quality. The problem is that the "Twilight" movie series really doesn't have one.

On the contrary, the "Twilight" movie series. It's a naked popcorn movie, and it's a feminine popcorn movie, which specifically attracts female movie fans, especially teenage female movie fans who are eager for love.

Therefore, this qiē also created a major feature of the box office of "Twilight", that is, the box office on the opening day was very terrifying. It's shocking, and the first week is also impressive, but in the second week, it can only be hehe.

And the box office of the "Twilight" movie series, if you really count it. Basically, it's half a month, that is, two weeks, and it's almost finalized. Although the release time has not yet ended, with the special situation of the "Twilight" movie series, it will be released for almost two weeks, and the total box office of two weeks will be able to know the box office performance of the film.

Because even if it is released for another month or two months, it is estimated that it will not increase any box office results, and at least there will be no miracle of another $100 million increase in the box office.

It is no exaggeration to say that the box office of "Twilight Crescent" on the first day of the movie reached a terrifying $75 million, which definitely broke the first-day box office results of many big-budget films, and it is no exaggeration to say that the box office results of "Twilight New Moon" on the first day of the movie reached a terrifying $75 million, which is also among the best in the first-day box office results of Hollywood movies.

"$75 million on the first day, and even if the box office plummets for the second time, it will plummet by 50% at most, or even less than 50%, which is not as tragic as "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse". ”

Thinking of this, Jin Yufan couldn't help laughing, you must know that the box office of "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse", which is the third part of the "Twilight" movie series, is called real horror when it plummets.

You must know that "Twilight: The Eclipse" reached $68.5 million at the box office on the first day, which is also a good start, and the typical first-day box office results of the "Twilight" movie series. But the next day, the box office plummeted by 65%, and the box office result of $24.2 million made everyone dumbfounded, what is the situation, can you still have a happy play, what do you want to do with "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse", give us box office problems, so that we can't predict your final box office.

In the entire "Twilight" movie series, the box office plummeted the most, that is, the third "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse", which plummeted by 65%, which is simply terrifying.

If it weren't for the horror of the box office on the first day of the "Twilight" movie series, or if it weren't for the fact that the "Twilight" movie series was not a big investment, such a terrifying plunge would probably make all the top management of the film production company have a heart attack, and they would go directly to the bottom of the loss.

Thinking of this, Jin Yufan couldn't help laughing, and then continued to focus on the first-day box office of "Twilight: New Moon".

"Even if the box office plummets the next day, it won't be as unlucky as "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse", even if it plummets by 50%, it can still have $37.5 million in revenue, not to mention that it won't really plummet by 50%, maybe 40%, maybe 30%, no one can say for sure. But anyway. The box office performance of "Twilight: New Moon" exceeded the $100 million mark in two days, which is no problem at all. If it weren't as unlucky as "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse", "Twilight: New Moon" would have exceeded $150 million at the box office in the first week, which would be appropriate. ”

Nowadays, the American movie box office. In particular, the box office of the first week often does not refer to seven days a week, but three days, starting from Friday to Saturday and Sunday.

In Jin Yufan's view, it is no problem for the box office of "Twilight: New Moon" to break through the $150 million mark in the first week, which also means that Jin Yufan is optimistic that "Twilight: New Moon" will break through the $150 million mark at the box office in three days.

Thinking of this, Jin Yufan couldn't help but get excited. It seems that he is about to have a bumper harvest again. Thinking of the movie "Twilight: New Moon", which may bring him hundreds of millions of dollars in income, Jin Yufan was not calm and called Hong Shengcheng of South Korea directly.

"Prepare for T-ara's comeback, don't be afraid of wasting money, I've made a lot of money here, you can use the fastest and most stable way you think to make T-ara come back. The money is out of the company, not enough for me to pay privately. ”

Because Kim Woo-beom is the chairman of MC Company. If the MC company is not binding on Jin Yufan at all in terms of contracts. It is still interesting for Jin Yufan to sign the Asian brokerage contract with the MC company, which also means that the MC company can also get a part of the money that Jin Yufan makes in Asia.

But it's only in Asia, on the side of the United States. The money Jin Yufan earned, then there is nothing to do with the MC company.

In this case, if it is an ordinary artist, it will not be done at all, and the agency is not allowed to agree. Let's not talk about whether it is possible for you to enter the American entertainment industry, at least just in case, no brokerage company will give up the income of its artists overseas, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, in case this artist becomes popular in the United States.

But this point doesn't work for Jin Yufan, Jin Yufan is the chairman of the MC company, and the entire MC company is Jin Yufan's, Jin Yufan can do whatever he wants, and no one can do anything about Jin Yufan.

Therefore, Jin Yufan's income in the United States, and even in Europe, is personal income, perhaps shared with overseas contracted brokerage companies, and MC companies cannot interfere.

However, Jin Yufan didn't care about this at all, in fact, this request was put forward by Hong Shengcheng on his own initiative, and its purpose was very simple, that is, he didn't want to set up any obstacles for Jin Yufan's overseas development, because Hong Shengcheng knew that with Jin Yufan's strength and potential, an Asian country would definitely not be able to tolerate it, and it would become inevitable to enter the United States.

But then again, Jin Yufan really doesn't lack money, in fact, Jin Yufan also knows about Hong Shengcheng's kindness, but he doesn't take it to heart. For Jin Yufan, there is no shortage of money at all, and the MC company is also his own hard work, as long as there is a need, he can give a steady stream of financial support.

In short, this is the tacit understanding between Jin Yufan and Hong Shengcheng, no one mentioned it, but both of them understand that when one party is in need, the other party must be unconditional, full cooperation and support.

The first day of "Twilight: New Moon" hit the box office, shocking everyone, although everyone has seen it, professional film critics still frantically accuse "Twilight: New Moon" and the previous "Twilight: Twilight", the same garbage, people can't watch it at all, an authentic bad movie.

But so what, the crazy hot box office directly slapped these professional film critics in the face, and the shiny and dominating the box office list in North America this week still made countless people speechless, not knowing what to say.

With the release of "Twilight New Moon" in North America, "Twilight New Moon" also began to be released overseas on a large scale, although the reputation is not very good, but it can't stand the female fans, and the box office results of various countries continue to fly to Twentieth Century Fox, which also makes Twentieth Century Fox executives laugh happily.

The popularity of "Twilight Crescent" continues, always occupying the top spot at the North American box office, after all, this time "Twilight: Crescent" is released, but no blockbuster can bring trouble and stop "Twilight Crescent".

There are just three films that can cause trouble for Twilight: Crescent: The Tourist, The Chronicles of Narnia: Dawn Tander, and Tron: Chronicles.

But "The Tourist" is only supported by two gods, Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp, but that's all. Because the film itself is not very good, the box office of "The Tourist" is only $17 million in the first week, which is the worst box office record since Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp starred in a commercial film.

In comparison, another highly anticipated movie, The Chronicles of Narnia, Dawn Treader, is even worse. The box office revenue was only $8.2 million on the opening day, and the results of the first three days of the film, although the box office did not plummet, barely reached $20 million.

Well, "The Chronicles of Narnia: Dawn Treader" continues the characteristics of the "Chronicles of Narnia" film series, that is, the film is more popular than declining. In general, the quality is good, which makes people look forward to it, but the box office is still not strong.

This is completely two extremes compared with the "Twilight" movie series, which has a poor reputation but is always hot at the box office.

In contrast, Tron: Chronicles is much stronger at the box office, reaching $43.6 million on the first day, which is not as good as the first-day box office of Twilight: Crescent, but overall. It's already a good score.

In the end, the global box office of "Tron: War Chronicles" reached $329 million, and in the face of the production cost of $170 million, it can barely be regarded as a bit of a return to the cost, maybe a little loss, but not a lot of loss.

Considering the good reputation of the movie, Twentieth Century Fox also plans to continue filming, hoping to rely on the good reputation of the first part. And then let the box office explode completely on the second part of the continuation.

In comparison, the $150 million Chronicles of Narnia: Dawn Tread is a pit. Twentieth Century Fox wants to recoup its roots, don't even think about it, it is estimated that this time Twentieth Century Fox will also lose money like the previous two "The Chronicles of Narnia".

In contrast, the just-released "Twilight: New Moon" is much stronger and more dazzling. Although Rotten Tomatoes only has a 29% positive rating. Not even a pitiful 30% has been reached. With an average score of 4.5 on IMDB, the reputation of "Twilight: Crescent" is as bad as it can be by all accounts, and the box office has plummeted.

But so what, with the support of a group of crazy female fans. "Twilight: New Moon" is still like a peerless master, and there are still what you outsiders say and attack, and I am in danger.

"Twilight: New Moon" grossed $160 million in its first week, 20 million more than its original $140 million. Uh~~~ This is also because there are no super blockbusters in the Christmas schedule to prevent and affect the results of "Twilight: New Moon".

At the same time, the news of the $130 million overseas box office in the first week came, surpassing the original $118 million overseas box office.

In the first week of the release of "Twilight: New Moon", strictly speaking, it was only three days, and the global box office of "Twilight: New Moon" has reached $290 million, just one step away from $300 million.

This alone has already earned back the investment in "Twilight: New Moon", plus there is a full seven-day cycle to grab the box office, it is all pure earning, how can Twentieth Century Fox not be happy.

December is the world of Twentieth Century Fox, and the few movies that attract attention are all made by Twentieth Century Fox, but "Tron: Chronicles" barely pays off, and "The Chronicles of Narnia: Dawn Tander" continues to pit Twentieth Century Fox. At this time, the box office success of "Twilight: New Moon" is definitely good news for Twentieth Century Fox, at least it can be relieved.

If the box office of "Twilight: New Moon" is also powerful, doesn't it mean that Twentieth Century Fox released three important movies in December 2010, originally intended to dominate December and grab the box office, but in the end, it was all powerful, and it was a big loss, wouldn't it make Twentieth Century Fox a joke?

"Twilight: New Moon" is, in a sense, the last face of Twentieth Century Fox in December, not only face, but also able to win glory for Twentieth Century Fox, and make money.

Therefore, when the box office of "Twilight Crescent" premiered, it reached $290 million, which also means that the movie "Twilight: Crescent" is destined to be a big profit.

Twentieth Century Fox was also very happy, with a very refreshing wave of his hand, and gave enough financial support to let the crew of "Twilight: Crescent" hold a celebration banquet to celebrate.

In short, as long as the crew of "Twilight: Crescent" has any requirements, as long as it is reasonable, or even not excessive, Twentieth Century Fox will fully support it. At this time, Twentieth Century Fox can be regarded as seeing through, the "Chronicles of Narnia" movie series is definitely a pit, and the "Twilight" movie series is the treasury, and if you want to make money, you still have to rely on the "Twilight" movie series.

Therefore, Twentieth Century Fox began to change his attitude and mind, and was very polite to the crew of "Twilight: Crescent", not only gave enough funds to hold a celebration banquet, but even wrapped a red envelope for everyone, and had a cordial conversation with everyone, hoping that everyone could make persistent efforts to continue to shoot the sequel "Twilight: Lunar Eclipse".

That's right, it's Twilight: Lunar Eclipse. With the box office success of "Twilight: New Moon", Twentieth Century Fox has become more and more confident in the "Twilight" film series, and has now begun to prepare for the third "Twilight: Eclipse", at least this plan is already on Twentieth Century Fox's 2011 film schedule.
