Since Xu has formed a cinema chain of 310 movie theaters in the mainland, Yindu is no longer of any use to DreamWorks. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIn addition, Yindu has deprived DreamWorks of the right to co-produce with mainland film studios. Therefore, Xu Cun didn't even hesitate to kick the silver capital away, and then asked Shi Nansheng to go north in person to form a distribution team dominated by mainlanders.

In other words, in the mainland film market, DreamWorks took over the production, distribution, and screening, forming a large-scale studio system.

In numerical terms, DreamWorks can get 82 percent of the box office share of each film, except for paying business taxes, special funds for films, and some unexplained expenses.

In addition, in view of the fact that the movie ticket prices in the mainland are too low compared with the movie tickets in Xiangjiang (in 85 years, the movie ticket prices in Xiangjiang have risen to 17 yuan and 31 yuan, which is about 5 yuan a piece), and the movie ticket prices of most state-run movie theaters in the mainland have been raised to 5 cents a piece.

There are two reasons why movie ticket prices at DreamWorks Cinemas have risen so hard – the first reason, of course, is to make a profit. The second reason is to leave room for the state-run cinema to survive (at present, the reform and opening up is still in the exploration period, and thousands of state-run cinemas in the mainland have a large number of idlers, if Xu Cun smashes the iron rice bowl of these idlers, these idlers have to hate Xu Cun to death, and then it is possible to push Xu Cun to the forefront, so Xu Cun has long made up his mind that he will never drive the state-run cinema out of the film market. ）。

Nowadays, DreamWorks has very little competition in the mainland, in such a situation, how can Xu Cun not want to take this opportunity to make a big profit?

Based on this, despite the many events at the end of the year, Xu Cun still personally selected five films to be introduced in the mainland.

After thinking about it for a long time, Xu Cun, the introduction film in the mainland in 85 years, chose "Royal Senior Sister 1" (in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xu Cun personally renamed "Royal Senior Sister" as "Iron Policewoman"). ), "The True Colors of Heroes", "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", "Five Women's Birthday", "Zhu Xian".

The reason why Xu Cun chose "Royal Sister 1", "The True Colors of Heroes", and "Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance" is not only because these three movies are rare good movies, but also because these three movies have no political color, and because Xu Cun wants to increase his influence in the mainland through these three movies.

The selection of "Five Women's Birthday" and "Zhu Xian" is Xu Cheng's "Five Women's Birthday" to please the mainland audience - the "Five Women's Birthday" of the Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe and the Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe are very influential in the mainland, and the actors in "The Five Women's Birthday" are all mainland actors, which can arouse the intimacy of the mainland audience. Although "Zhu Xian" is performed by Hong Kong and Taiwan actors, most of them are filmed in the mainland.

Speaking of "Zhu Xian", Xu Cun is really pleased!

"Zhu Xian" finally won 44 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office in Hong Kong, and successfully killed "The True Color of Heroes" to become the box office champion of Hong Kong.

In Japan, "Zhu Xian" earned 8.9 billion yen at the box office, becoming the sixth film in the Japanese box office list at present.

In the Nanyang region, "Zhu Xian" won 12 million US dollars at the box office, and the results were very good.

In South Korea, the number of viewers of "Zhu Xian" reached 950,000.

In North America, "Zhu Xian" won $79 million at the box office, ranked ninth in the North American box office list in '84, and became the box office champion of pure Chinese films in North America.

In Central and South America and Europe, "Zhu Xian" earned $54 million at the box office, breaking the box office record achieved by Chinese films in Central and South America and Europe.

Total: "Zhu Xian" made a total of $177 million at the box office.

The production cost of "Zhu Xian" is nearly 20 million US dollars.

The publicity fee for "Zhu Xian" is 30 million US dollars -- an important reason why "Zhu Xian" was able to achieve a box office of 177 million US dollars is that Xu Cunken took the risk of spending 30 million US dollars to vigorously promote "Zhu Xian". Of course, "Zhu Xian" is also worth Xu Cun's risk.

After deducting the fees paid to cinemas and co-distribution in various places, "Zhu Xian" earned Xu Cun a total of $23 million (excluding the merchandise and videotape profits). ）。

For Xu Cun, who is ready to lose money and make money, it is definitely good news that "Zhu Xian" can make a profit of 23 million US dollars!

But-

Although "Zhu Xian" made Xu Cun a profit of 23 million US dollars, "Zhu Xian" was not the movie that made the most money for Xu Cun - "Back to the Future", "The Terminator", "Ghostbusters", "Little Devil", and "The Little Mermaid" all made Xu Cun more money than "Zhu Xian".

"Back to the Future" grossed $210 million in North America and $380 million worldwide, earning Xu Cun $51 million.

"Ghostbusters" made $229 million at the box office in North America and $291.6 million worldwide, earning Xu Cun $24 million (since Xu Cun only paid half of the production and publicity costs of "Ghostbusters", Xu Cun only owns half of the revenue rights of "Ghostbusters"). ）。

"Little Devil" grossed $148 million in North America and $230 million worldwide, and Xu Cun earned $29 million excluding dividends to Jeffrey.

"The Little Mermaid" grossed $69 million in North America and $170 million worldwide, and Xu Cun earned $26 million excluding dividends to Jeffrey.

"The Terminator" grossed $38 million in dollars and $96 million worldwide (in the previous game, "The Terminator" grossed $78 million worldwide, and "The Terminator" grossed $18 million more thanks to Hsu's strong Asian distribution). Because the production cost and publicity cost of "Terminator" are very low, so much money earned by "Terminator" for Xu Cun is also half a million dollars more than the money earned by "Zhu Xian" for Xu Cun.

(None of the above movie profits include merchandise and videotape profits.) ）

In total: "Zhu Xian", "Back to the Future", "Terminator", "Ghostbusters", "Little Monster", and "The Little Mermaid" earned Xu Cun a total of 176.5 million US dollars.

Plus the part of the merchandise and the videotape that is profitable.

"Zhu Xian", "Back to the Future", "Terminator", "Ghostbusters", "Little Monster", and "The Little Mermaid" can probably earn Xu Cun $350 million.

When all this part of the money arrives, Xu Cun will return all this part of the money to the Baye Bank, and then make up some money to withdraw the Huangtu Land, and then take the Huangtu Land to Japan for a loan, so as to lay out the Hiroshima Agreement that will come next year.
