The crew of "The Departed" quietly stopped work and did not attract the attention of the outside world. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoAlthough there was a piece of news about this drama when it started filming, it disappeared from everyone's sight after entering the filming period.

In fact, this is also Liu Anran's intention, he doesn't want to make the popularity of this film popular at this time, so that when it is released in the future, there will basically be no drama. Stir-fried all the way is bound to achieve counterproductive effects.

And Liu Anran was able to get out of the set and give himself a small vacation, which Edward and the others never expected. In the past, Liu Anran filmed films, but they were all done in one go, and there has never been such a "lazy" time.

"That's basically it, a week is probably enough time for Leonardo to adjust." After talking to everyone again, Liu Anran said.

"In the future, you will also think about it, for this kind of film with a lot of psychological dramas, you must pay more attention to the psychological state of the actors. Although we paid others, if we really got something wrong with our psychology, it wouldn't be good. ”

"Each actor adjusts himself in a different way, some can get in and out quickly, and some cannot. In the future, we should pay more attention, so as to maintain our company's good reputation in the industry. Edward smiled and nodded.

"I've also talked to the Weinstein brothers about working together, and when they start the company, they're going to work together in the same way as the rest of the studios. Although it is a long-term cooperation goal, it will not have much to do with equity aspects. The money they took out from Disney was enough for them to toss for a while. ”

"Actually, I think it's pretty much the same, the brothers are very shrewd. Sometimes I think it's a good thing that we didn't buy Miramax, or else these two guys might have made some kind of noise. Liu Anran nodded and said.

"However, they do have their own unique features in the selection of films, and we must also pay attention to this aspect and strive to continue this cooperation."

"Our goal this year is to crush Paramount in an all-round way, how's that, do you have any confidence? The box office war is about to start, and I can't wait. ”

"Don't worry, we'll definitely make them look good this year." Edward said confidently.

"It's just that we have some losses in doing so, and it is inevitable that some films can't maintain enough weeks between films. Even three films like "Extraordinary Human Traffickers 2", "King of War", and "Blue Sea Tracking" will be released in September. ”

"It's nothing, but "Lord of War" will try to get as many screens as possible and extend the schedule." Liu Anran thought for a while and said.

"You're not worried that someone will come looking for trouble in the future?" George asked with a smile.

"Afraid of what? If they do it, won't they let us play it? Liu Anran shook his head and said.

"The most profitable thing in this world is arms, followed by poison. products, because many of the former are involved in the state. We're not criticizing anything, this society is like this, let's just show the back side of the real society. ”

"I didn't expect this film to take home much at the box office, nor did I expect it to win back many awards. I just think it's just a matter of letting these people who live in a happy world know more about it. ”

"Okay, I'll fight with the theater chain again. Now they promised to give this film about 1,500 screens, and I'll see if I can exceed 2,000 yuan. Edward thought for a moment and said.

"But I think the box office results may be a little bad, such a film is not a commercial film that many people like. And the problem of reaction is also very acute, whether people can accept it, it's really hard to say. ”

"Hehe, as long as we don't lose money. Just like "The Shawshank Redemption", isn't it not very good at the box office, but can you say that this film is not a very good film? Liu Anran said with a smile.

"Maybe people don't have much feeling about this film now, but when more and more wars break out in the future, they will understand a truth, why there are so many wars in this world, not only because of interests, but because there are too many guns in this world."

Edward shook his head helplessly, judging from his experience, the box office of this film really won't be very good. But Liu Anran wants to make this film have a certain "educational significance", so let's manage it well.

"This year, we still have a big impact on the box office, "War of the Worlds", "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", "Fantastic Four", these four films are the films we plan to compete with the rest of the studios in the summer season." Edward continued.

"However, judging from the current situation, this year's box office results do not seem to be very ideal. Halfway through May, none of the films had a premiere box office of more than 50 million, and the best one was Columbia's "Enemy of Love," which was released on February 11 and was only $43 million. ”

"Is this Will? The quality of the film that Smith joined is also very good, but until now, the film has not exceeded 150 million dollars at the box office in North America. I always feel that this year's box office will not be as good as last year's film's results, and we must also be mentally prepared. ”

In 2003 and 2004, Dream Media's film companies made a lot of money except for Pixar. But now Pixar is not bad, with the addition of the special effects department of the movie, the small life will be very nourishing.

In fact, this is also normal, it belongs to people's tired period of watching movies. Last year was the year of cartoons, and the two cartoons really shocked all the films. Liu Anran said with a smile.

"Last year, the total box office value of North America exceeded 9.3 billion, and this year I am afraid it will be difficult to break through even 9 billion US dollars. It's okay to have less, as long as our share of the box office is not low. ”

"Starting next year, these film companies should be able to reduce their production costs and publicity expenses. There is no ideal box office return, and the more you spend, the more you lose. But we can't do that, we have to maintain our usual standards. Even in the promotion of some key films, it is necessary to increase some efforts. ”

The box office will definitely rise in the future, and it is not a dream to break through 10 billion. Anyway, the horn of this year's battle has been sounded, and I have to play with them anyway.
