Chapter 47: Today is a Great Day

(It has been nearly 20 days since the book was uploaded, and nearly 140,000 words have been uploaded, and the results have been tepid.) Maybe the plot has not been developed, maybe there are all kinds of problems, everyone has a mouth, you say it in the book review area, and the pertinent opinion of the old donkey will be revised. Now the situation, the old donkey is eager to collect and recommend. What will happen to this book in the future, it's all up to the brothers to help, thank you!! )

At this time, "The Sixth Sense" also began to be released worldwide.

There is no news of the introduction of this film in Chinese mainland, and according to the consistent strategy of radio and television, it is really impossible to introduce a horror film, even if it is the most touching horror film.

But in addition to Chinese mainland, "The Sixth Sense" has signed 6 release contracts in 46 countries and regions around the world. It will be released within this year after 6 continuations. Judging from the release of some overseas countries and regions, the film's overseas performance seems to be even better than "Saving Private Ryan". Of course, it will take time to verify what the situation will be.

In the sixth week, as schools in North America began to reopen, the box office of the film industry plummeted, but "The Sixth Sense" still won 2.55 million at the box office in a single week, with a total of 2O, $3.16 million. officially broke 200 million, although the number of weekly box office champions ended in 5 weeks, it can still rank second this week.

And what the media said before, the box office forecast was at 210 million, which has also become a joke. Fools know that it's not on that level.

Perhaps thanks to "Titanic", American audiences seem to be accustomed to watching movies for a long time. The decline in the seventh week was not large, with almost no loss of $2o.35 million, accumulating $223.51 million, officially passing the 216 million of "Saving Private Ryan" and becoming the annual box office champion in North America. "The Soldier" is still being released in some remote areas, but the box office growth has been minimal.

The so-called dark horse is black to the end.

can be so dark that it becomes the annual box office champion, I'm afraid the only movie "The Sixth Sense" is the movie. received $18.83 million in the eighth week, 15.58 million in the ninth week, 13.24 million in the tenth week, and 1oo50,000 in the eleventh week. 7.68 million in the thirteenth week and 4.85 million in the fourteenth week.

At the end of this week's screening, the box office of "The Sixth Sense" in North America officially exceeded 300 million, reaching 3O, $2.31 million, and the position of the annual box office champion has been as stable as Mount Tai.

At this point, the potential of "The Sixth Sense" in North America is almost exhausted, and with the gradual reduction of the number of theaters screened, it will be good if it can collect another 10 million box office by the time the whole film is released in North America. But there is no doubt that the film is already a miracle, a myth.

Including publicity expenses, 30 million investment (in fact, 30 million has not been used, but DreamWorks will make a full account to achieve 30 million), and it received 3o, 2.31 million US dollars at the box office in North America!

The media is no longer able to complain, "How long will it be released?" ”

2o10,000 in the fifteenth week, 980,000 in the sixteenth week...... Although it can still be ranked within the Top2o, the North American box office market has lacked attention in the remaining days. It was finally released for eighteen weeks, and the total box office in North America was 3o, $5.68 million.

But the overseas box office has sprung up, and the good news has come back one after another.

On the Internet, fans in Europe, Japan and other Internet-reaching countries told their feelings about this movie, and the praise accounted for the vast majority. This has also contributed to a bumper harvest at the overseas box office. After a few months of accumulation, the box office successfully surpassed the results of "The Soldier", reaching $35,83o at the box office.

This overseas score is about 30 million less than the original work, which is also due to Chen Tiandu's fame not being as good as Bruce Willis. In other words, by the time "The Sixth Sense" was released worldwide, the global box office had accumulated $663.98 million.

This "supernatural event" made all the film companies and all the analysts fall through the glasses together. The investment of 3ooo million is a full 21 times the investment box office ratio, a figure that made Wall Street financial analysts sigh to the media: "The most profitable movie in 1998 was not "Titanic", but "The Sixth Sense". By the time it launches on dVd, the film's revenue ratio may even reach 4o times.

"DreamWorks has really made a lot of money, this treasure still came to the door by itself, should your luck be so good!"

The box office is indeed very high, but a topic that people care about the most can never be avoided.

Among so many profits, how much can Chen Tiandu, who single-handedly planned and personally directed and starred in this movie, get a share from it?

When the North American box office of the movie broke 300 million, some media stabbed a contract, a contract that amazed all Americans.

"I don't take a penny of remuneration, and I put all of it into the movie...... The North American box office has exceeded 200 million, and 3o% of the box office is divided into 1o% of the periphery; The North American box office is 250 million, with a 3o% box office share and a 15% share of the periphery; The North American box office exceeded 280 million, with a 3o% box office share plus 2o% of the peripherals. And if the overseas box office exceeds 200 million, Chen Tian will share one-third of the net profit of the overseas box office. ”

This is not true, could it be that before the filming of this movie started, Chen Tiandu had already aimed at a box office of 200 million? !

Is this confidence or blindness? But it's definitely a big gamble!

Believe in your own strength and gamble on your future.

If this contract is true, then Chen Tian will get a lot and calculate it.

Hollywood movies are generally screened one month after the theater chain will share the account with the company, and then the company DreamWorks will share the account with Chen Tiandu. And because Chen Tiandu signed a special contract with DreamWorks, he still couldn't share the money until the time when the benefits were the greatest.

According to the box office sharing model of "9o/1o-ith-f1oor-of-7o%", in general, "9o/1o" is only the proportion of the first three weeks of screening, and then the fourth and fifth weeks are 6o/4o, the sixth week is 5o/5o, and the seventh week is 4o/6o...... The specific changes depend on the contract.

The U.S. film industry is very good, and the various contracts are very good.

Of course, there are other schemes between theaters and film companies, but in any case, from the release of a film to the end of the film, all the total box office revenue, the share between the merchants and the cinema, is generally about 5o/5o, half to half.

After deducting the publicity fee, copy fee, shipping fee, printing fee, etc., the final profit of DreamWorks is about 145 million. The overseas box office revenue is roughly 110 million, which is slightly less than that in China. After deducting DreamWorks' investment expenses of 3ooo million, the box office income alone is as high as 225 million US dollars.

-- This is before tax.

After the accounting of the financial department of DreamWorks, it began to pay various corporate taxes to the tax office. Jews have a lot of energy in some places, and two of the Big Three of DreamWorks are Jews, and they can get a tax incentive at their fingertips. But he still paid close to 2o% in taxes, and after deducting taxes, there is only more than $180 million left, which is much more than "Saving Private Ryan".

With a 3o% share, Chen Tiandu can at least get about 6ooo US dollars.

Uh, that number......

If you use a Bgm to describe it, I'm afraid this song is very appropriate, "I planted a seed, and finally grew fruit, and today is a great day......"

Of course, the matter did not end like this, because Chen Tiandu still had to pay federal personal income tax, California personal income tax and other taxes to the tax bureau. There are too many types of taxes in the United States, and an ordinary person can't figure it out at all, let alone know how to avoid taxes reasonably. So lawyers are very important positions in the United States, and almost everyone in the rich has their own lawyer.
