Chapter 369: A Big Investment of 100 Million Dollars
January 30, 08, the twenty-third day of the lunar calendar in the 07th year, the small year. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
On this day, "Saw 2" is still being released, but it has been more than a month, and it is almost time to draw. Especially in China, it's the New Year, who still rarely has such horror movies.
Therefore, the box office at this time is more than 1 million a day, sometimes less than 1 million, so it is supported.
It is almost similar in Asia, and the influence of thousands of years of Chinese cultural radiation is naturally small. There are also many Chinese all over Asia, and although the Chinese New Year is not as grand as the mainland, it cannot be underestimated.
However, for Europe and the United States, it is different, and such an NC-level has little impact.
Worldwide, "Saw 2" has won nearly 1.3 billion at the box office, and it is expected that there will be half a month in the world, and it is expected that even if it is less than 1.4 billion, it is not much worse.
Another 18-day "Bear Infested Treasure Raiders Bear Soldiers" is very beautiful, and the New Year is festive and happy, and many parents will take their children into the cinema.
"Bear Infested: Raiders of the Lost Ark" won nearly 50 million at the box office within half a month, and it is expected to be released for another month, and the mainland box office can reach more than 80 million or more.
It can be seen from this day that the box office has risen slightly, which is inseparable from the fact that everyone has time for the New Year.
And "Butterfly Effect" has also declined very seriously recently, as I said before, the Chinese New Year file is a festive one, you make it so deep, not many people like it.
Except in Europe and the United States, today's "Butterfly Effect" is very popular in Europe and the United States, and although the box office is not impressive, it has received rave reviews.
After entering the Internet era, many people are inseparable from the Internet, and it seems that watching news online is a habit.
So, after that [Dream Factory Year] came out, everyone was shocked.
"I didn't expect that there were so many box offices, it's incredible, but it's mostly a contribution to the foreign box office, even if some companies envy it, they can't help it, and they have the ability to release it abroad. "Netizen.
"It's really amazing, especially Brother Meng, who contributed 66% of the box office, which is too good. ”
"Unconsciously it has become the first film and television company in China, and the rise is too fast, only after reading this report did I know that DreamWorks radiates so much, and so many subsidiaries are also very powerful. ”
"Looking forward to continuing to be brilliant, so that I don't have to worry about a good movie. ”
"Oh! Brother Meng's work "Butterfly Effect" has been released, according to Brother Meng's speed and efficiency, the new film should be approved, I don't know if you have any news?"
"It's not just Brother Meng, it seems that the cartoon with special effects of the dream is going to open a new cartoon soon, I don't know what it is?"
Netizens are looking forward to DreamWorks' new work.
I don't know when it seems that the anticipation for DreamWorks' new work has become an expectation, especially for fans who like movies.
"08, a glorious year, I am more looking forward to China hosting the Olympic Games, I don't know what will happen?"
"yes, there's a lot to look forward to this year. ”
Not to mention netizens, Wang Mengdu expects that this year is not only a glorious year for China, but also a tragic year.
It is impossible for Wang Meng to be a prophet, it is unrealistic, so he can only helplessly go with the flow.
On the Internet, everyone is looking forward to Wang Meng's new work.
On this day, that is, January 30th, "Yangtze River No. 7" directed by Stephen Chow was officially released.
This step of the movie embodies everyone's accumulated expectations for "Shaolin Football" and "Kung Fu", and in terms of reason and expectation, it is more expected than Wang Meng's works.
However......
This time, many fans were disappointed, and the so-called sci-fi movie "Yangtze River No. 7" made countless fans sad.
One day after its release, the complaints continued, although it was still nonsensical, although the star was still popular, but this movie was really not that good.
It was also from this movie that Xing Ye began to withdraw from the starring role and go all out to be a director.
This is the case from the later "Journey to the West" to "The Mermaid".
And the recent turmoil is not just as simple as Wang Meng's movie being popular and Xing Ye's work being complained about.
One of Wang Meng's favorite Hollywood stars, Heath Ledger, just won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, committed suicide. The reason is very simple, it is too deep into the play.
When he participated in the Batman Black Rider, he locked himself in a hotel room alone for a long time in order to figure out the psychology of the Joker, licking his lips, brushing his hair, speaking in tone, etc., and finally created a Heath Ledger's Joker!
This news has attracted a lot of attention from all over the world, and the hard work of the actors has also been mentioned by everyone.
And Wang Meng knew that 20 days later, the famous host Shen Dianxia would also pass away, which would also cause a boom at that time.
It's going to happen.
08 is definitely a wonderful year, there are master photographers Mr. Chen was scolded, there are Jinsha and Siqingerile's 'shrew door', there are married and some have passed away, in short, it is a wonderful year.
DreamWorks also took this opportunity to announce a big plan.
As soon as the news of this big plan was released, Xing Ye's "Yangtze River No. 7" was quickly drowned.
02/03/08.
"There are DreamWorks and DreamWorks Summit Entertainment Company, and the 3D movie "Kung Fu Panda" jointly produced by DreamWorks has been officially established. ”
Summary:――
The film is set in ancient China, and its landscapes, sets, costumes and food are full of Chinese elements. The story tells the story of a clumsy panda who aspires to become a master of martial arts
The story takes place in ancient China a long time ago, and it starts with a giant panda who likes to roll around and roll around.
It is said that Panda Po is an apprentice in a noodle shop, although he is clumsy and barely able to get a job, but Po daydreams every day, dreaming that he will one day be able to have a pinnacle battle with star-level bigwigs in the world of kung fu......
The five Kung Fu masters of the Valley of Peace have a variety of attitudes towards dramatic results: the upright, brave and fearless Tiger Master sees Po as a veritable joke...... But her attitude towards this matter is like her fickle personality, which is not very clear, and Master Mantis is the smartest of several masters, and he is very helpless about Bao's current situation, and always helps secretly.
In the end, the grandmaster "Master", who is going to train Ah Bao into a "kung fu master", made a gorgeous appearance...... Top fighters who can defeat powerful enemies.
As for the big dragon that makes everyone feel like a great enemy, it is a very narcissistic snow leopard, he has been waiting for the day of revenge for 20 years, but he never dreamed that what he was waiting for was a giant panda. After a fierce battle, Po defeated the Great Dragon, saved the valley, and brought peace to the valley with his understanding of martial arts and the martial arts taught by his master.

……
When this news was released, many people short-circuited for a while.
"I'm not mistaken, it seems to say that the production cost is 100 million US dollars, what the hell does a movie cost so much money, and the production cycle is a year and a half, what the hell?"
"I can only say that I admire, everyone is optimistic, it is a big 3D animation movie, such a movie is short for a year and a half, and it is normal to make such a movie for three or four years. So it's not outrageous that the investment is so big and the production time is so long. "Netizen.
"Is DreamWorks crazy? It's too scary, the cartoon costs 100 million, and our Chinese movies don't seem to have invested in such a big movie, right? Could it be that "Bear Infested: Raiders of the Lost Ark" has succeeded, and DreamWorks is full of confidence. "Netizen.
……
For a while, everyone was not light, and investing 100 million US dollars was just a joke, which was outrageous. As for 3D animation, there is little attention or something.
Only Wang Meng knows that the name 3D in 09 will be a crazy name, so he will make 3D animation in advance, rather than ordinary 2D animation.
As for the production cycle, this is still a conservative estimate plus a lot of money, and it took three years for the original version to be released from production to release.
Of course, it took a long time to write the script in the early stage, as well as to finalize the characters, etc.
This time there is Wang Meng's experience in the previous life, and this aspect will be shortened a lot, so a year and a half is not outrageous.
