0746 How Profitable Are Hollywood Studios

Yi Tianhao took a puff of cigarette, then put his arm on the director's shoulder and said: "A first-line actor can earn tens of millions of dollars a year, what if it is a first-class entertainment company?" Director Jin is well-informed, tell me about it! ”

Although Director Jin Zhuangzhi doesn't know what Yi Tianhao is asking for, but now Jin Zhuangzhi is very optimistic about Yi Tianhao, and almost Yi Tianhao will answer whatever he asks, and this is not an industry secret, there is nothing that cannot be said.

At present, there are eight major film companies in Hollywood, namely Simily Resorts Films, Paramount Pictures, Columbia Pictures, Warner Bros. Pictures, Universal Pictures, United Pictures, 20th Century Fox, and Walt Disney. Most of these studios have a very long history. ”

Yi Tianhao nodded and said: "I have also heard of several of them, such as Warner Bros. Film and Television Company, such as Simmy Bay Film Company, which seem to be very famous. ”

Jin Zhuangzhi smiled and said: "Of course, it is very, very famous, some other small companies are rising one after another, one after another collapsed, many film companies are in this cruelly competitive industry, and finally crushed, only these eight major film and television companies can really stand in Hollywood." And their annual income is also drooling. ”

Yi Tianhao's eyes lit up and asked, "How many?" ”

"Take "Avatar" as an example, the total investment of Avatar has reached more than 500 million US dollars, but the total box office of this movie has reached 2.7 billion US dollars, even if you count the publicity expenses of this movie, it has made more than 2 billion US dollars!"

Yi Tianhao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and his eyes almost fell off!

Rely on! An aircraft carrier was bought for just over two billion dollars, and the money earned from this movie is almost enough to buy an aircraft carrier???

I used to think that actors were very rich, but I didn't expect the film company to make so much money.

"Of course, not all movies can make so much money, "Avatar" is still a few movies after all, this movie has almost set a global box office record, but now every film company releases three or four high-grossing movies every year, making about 1 billion 2 billion US dollars a year, is it still not a problem? If you come across some movies that are very, very high at the box office, then there is more to the annual income than that. ”

Yi Tianhao swallowed his saliva, compared to this, it seems that his business is really a small fight.

Director Jin Zhuangzhi said with a smile: "However, each of these film companies has a heritage of decades or even nearly a hundred years, so it has developed to this extent, and other companies in the film industry cannot replace their position at all, and they also cannot reach their level." ”

Yi Tianhao snorted, in this way, his heart can be somewhat balanced.

Yi Tianhao couldn't help but ask: "If you go to Hollywood to open a company, how much will it cost?" ”

Jin Zhuangzhi looked at Yi Tianhao, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise: "Open a film company? I really haven't calculated this, and I don't know much about it, Brother Hao, you don't have this idea, right? ”

Yi Tianhao sneered: "I'm just talking casually, I'm a ** silk now, don't I still eat here with you." ”

Jin Zhuangzhi thought about it, and then smiled: "Brother Hao, no matter what, you can have this kind of thought, and I also support you, today's young people, there are too few people who dare to think and dare to do like you." ”:

Yi Tianhao laughed and said: "I don't dare to think and dare to do it, I can be regarded as cranky." ”

"Haha, but, Brother Hao, you want to start a company, you do think too much. First, it takes money to start a company. Second, to open a company, you must understand the market. The third and very important aspect is that you are Asian, and it is simply impossible for an Asian to open a film company in the United States! ”

Yi Tianhao was surprised: "Racial discrimination? ”

"Hey, sort of, but the most important reason is not racism, the real reason is that the whole of Hollywood is actually controlled by the American mafia, or more or less their shadows, and if you pass, you are grabbing that piece of cake with them, do you think the mafia bosses will agree?"

Yi Tianhao smiled bitterly: "It is estimated that not only will I not agree, but I will be immediately arrested and fed to the wolves." ”

Director Jin Zhuangzhi nodded, and then left the set with Yi Tianhao, after going out, he waved his hand with Yi Tianhao, and said: "Brother Hao, go back and have a good rest, continue tomorrow, it will be over in a few days, I really look forward to the day when it will be on the shelves!" ”

Yi Tianhao waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm also looking forward to it." ”

After the two broke up, Yi Tianhao got into a taxi, and after the taxi drove away, a sneer appeared on the corner of Yi Tianhao's mouth, Arrest me and feed the wolf? I'm afraid those mafia godfathers don't have this ability yet, right?

Yi Tianhao actually thought of going to the United States to open a film company, but this is just a random inspiration, Yi Tianhao will not really do it, although the film industry is profitable, people Bill Gates is even more profitable, people are doing Microsoft business, do you also want to do Microsoft business to make money?

Obviously this is not possible.

It is impossible to make money in any business, you just go to do whatever business, that is not realistic.

Director Jin Zhuangzhi is not wrong, he doesn't know how much money the film industry needs, and the film industry also needs to understand the market and contacts, no matter which aspect, he doesn't have it, and even as long as he has to face those mafia in the past, the American mafia is not so easy to deal with, it is an underworld organization with a history of hundreds of years, and it is the most powerful underworld in the world.

The taxi slowly drove to the hotel where Yi Tianhao stayed, and after returning to the hotel, Yi Tianhao called Shao Meidie and told Shao Meidie his thoughts, Yi Tianhao still admires Shao Meidie very much in business, so there are such things, and he is willing to discuss with Shao Meidie.

Shao Meidie's statement is really the same as what the director said, she does not agree with Yi Tianhao to break into Hollywood to start a company, if Yi Tianhao goes to Hollywood to act, she still agrees, but opening a film company is bound to invest huge capital, and may even have to invest all the money on hand, but the chance of success is very small.

Yi Tianhao saw Shao Meidie say so, so he had to give up this plan for the time being, forget it, he knows that he is cranky, and now he hasn't even acted in a play, and he is not even an actor, so he began to think about opening a film company, which is indeed too unreliable.

After hanging up the phone, Yi Tianhao washed his face and began to rest.

The next day, when I came to the set, after a night's rest, Yun'er seemed to return to normal, and began to talk and laugh again, and when filming, she was more open than before, but Yi Tianhao still felt that Yun'er always looked weird when she looked at herself, could it be that she was thinking too much?

Yi Tianhao and Yun'er are actually boyfriend and girlfriend now, and yesterday was just because they kissed in public, so it is extremely normal for Yun'er to be uncomfortable as a girl, and Yi Tianhao is also very understanding.

After filming a morning of filming, Yi Tianhao and Yuna took a walk on the set at noon, and the two of them came to the grove where there was no one, walking hand in hand, breathing the fresh air here.

Yi Tianhao smiled and asked, "Are you still thinking about yesterday?" ”

"Not really." Yun'er smiled sweetly, showing a hint of shyness on her face, and then a little gloomy, and sighed slightly, "Brother Hao, I just think that because I am still a singer, I can't casually expose my boyfriend, which makes you a little wronged." ”

Yi Tianhao said with a touched face: "Don't be afraid, Yun'er, for you, I don't care about any grievances!" ”
