Whether the new generation of members of the Disney family is willing to enter Disney has nothing to do with Walter, for Walter, without them entering Disney, it is still good news, after all, without them, naturally Walter, the third generation of Disney's descendants, will be easier to get Disney's rights.

Of course, even if they don't stay at Disney and choose to start other businesses, they will still achieve a lot of success for these rich second generations who have already decided to be born. As for why, quite simply, there is no fairness in this world, and from birth they are destined to have more opportunities than others.

"Ahem, ahem......" Roy, who was eating bacon next to Leslie, didn't speak, and at this moment, after seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, he coughed at the right time, interrupted the atmosphere, and then said to Leslie: "Can you pour me a glass of lemonade?"

"Okay, dear. Seeing Roy's appearance, Leslie got up very worriedly and went to the kitchen.

Seeing his wife leave, he put down the knife and fork in his hand, Roy took a sip of red wine, and said to the nephews in front of him with a smile: "Don't care about her words, your future is in your own hands, and no one can control it for you." ”

"We understand. Everyone responded in unison, compared to Leslie, Roy is obviously more open-minded, just as he will take the initiative to propose reforms at Disney in the future, at home, he also adopts a tolerant attitude towards his children.

At the end of dinner, under the puzzled eyes of several other cousins, Walter was called into the study by Roy to talk alone, apparently, there were some more personal topics, which were inconvenient for those cousins who did not work at Disney to hear.

In the study, the layout is very special, in addition to the inconvenient books on the first floor, there are all kinds of Disney toys left, which is very conspicuous. Sometimes, Walter is very quick to see these, it is precisely because of the three generations of the Disney family, the fun of these cartoon characters is indispensable in life, which is why Disney has developed so far, and the glory of not falling in the field of cartoon and animation, and even after that, even if Disney's live-action movies rose, but cartoon animation has not fallen.

"Coffee?" Roy asked with a smile.

"No, I just drank red wine, and I'm afraid it will hurt my stomach to drink coffee again, just like you, lemonade." Walter replied respectfully.

"Okay. Roy said as he poured Walter a glass of lemonade, which Roy had brought from the table at dinner.

After doing these things, Roy took a sip of lemonade and then said, "What do you expect the final box office of "American Painting" to be after the first round of screenings?"

"I don't know. ”

"I don't know?" Roy blurted out in surprise, and then asked rhetorically, "As a producer, don't you even have a little estimate?"

"I really don't know, if you talk about the estimate, my initial mental estimate of the box office was only 100 million US dollars, but now that it has broken 100 million, I naturally don't know. ”

"So what are you guessing about?"

"Okay...... Well...... $200 million at most!"

"Is 200 million so low?" Roy obviously didn't believe it, after all, the box office momentum of the movie was so good, if Disney stepped up its promotion, it should not be a problem to get three or four hundred million.

"It's already very high, and I feel like it's lucky to have a box office of $200 million!" Vought retorted.

"How?"

"First of all, our film is completely stained with the light of 'anti-Vietnam War' propaganda, coupled with Lucas's realistic restoration of the movie scene on the eve of the Vietnam War, which has resonated with many American people who were affected by the Vietnam War and deeply hurt, so the initial results will be very good, even more shocking than the shocking box office results achieved by last year's popular "The Godfather". ”

After Walter finished speaking, he took a sip of the lemonade on the table and continued: " However, although we have achieved a double harvest at the box office and word-of-mouth in the early stage, after this month, the box office will definitely not inevitably fall off a cliff, because the first point is that many urban anti-Vietnam War films of the same type have begun to be released, which will largely squeeze out our theater production, after all, for theaters, as long as the new movies of other film companies are of online quality, it will definitely weaken our films, and most audiences will not be able to watch a movie repeatedly, "American Style Painting" The number of moviegoers will inevitably decrease, and the decrease in the number of films scheduled and the number of moviegoers will naturally lead to a decline in the box office. ”

After a pause, Walter continued: "Secondly, the second reason is that I reported to the Disney board of directors about the rampant piracy, although we have started the business of renting and selling movie tapes to recover this loss, but this result will only make more people prefer to stay at home and watch video tapes to reminisce about the movie instead of going to the cinema and adding a little bit to the box office." Therefore, with these two points, even if we continue to increase advertising investment after the first round of screenings of the film, it is difficult to guarantee that the box office of the film will be as explosive as the first month, after all, many audiences' enthusiasm for watching a new movie is only a few weeks, and even some people only have a few days of enthusiasm, and we can't control it at all. ”

Listening to Walter's words, Roy frowned slightly, obviously still a little unbelievable about this, after all, Disney has not had this kind of live-action movie with a box office hit before this, and his grasp of the live-action film market is still inaccurate, but the two points that Walter said can't help but make him agree.

For example, the first point, there are really a lot of movies of the same type like "American Style Painting", don't think that only the mainland in later generations will be addicted to the trend, when it comes to following the trend, Hollywood is too much. Of course, because of the production of the assembly line, there are a lot of Hollywood movies of the same type, relying on quantification, the emergence of high-quality products, so that they are big sellers and sweep the world, so it is natural to ignore those inferior movies that follow the trend.

And now, in the first week of the release of "American Painting", after the box office exploded, with the keen eyes of other Hollywood film companies, it is natural to study this movie that costs less than one million dollars, but can explode tens of millions or even break 100 million at the box office. After that, the result is obvious, let the screenwriter complete the script in a few days, and then, like "American Painting", select a few young actors who are not famous and can make movies quickly, with a director who can make movies, quickly produce a new movie of the same type, and then rush to "American Painting" Before the popularity of the movie went down, he quickly used the relationship to pass the review, didn't even want the premiere, entered the theater to release it strongly, quickly made money, and released it with the mentality of making a little quick money and making as much money as he could, and then went down......
