Chapter 500 strongly hit the top spot

Zhou Shaoming heard George's words, his whole body was sluggish, after "Shrek 2" was released in North America at the beginning of this month, after the residual heat just dissipated, "The Incredibles" gave a shot in the arm to the film market at the beginning of this month with a box office performance of more than 70 million in the first release!

Facing the release of "League of Assassins", Zhou Shaoming was still a little worried, worried that after the release of this commercial film, which is known as the coolest commercial film of his company this year, the box office results will be affected by the box office results of "The Incredibles"!

However, apparently in fact, due to the release of "League of Assassins", the box office performance of "The Incredibles" has been declining, and from the first day of release, the box office results of "The Incredibles" have achieved 70 million box office results, and the box office results of the week have reached 150 million box office, becoming the first place in the North American box office list that week!

When "The Incredibles" sprinted to the box office of "Shrek 2" in North America with 440 million, "The League of Assassins" was released strongly, winning the favor of the audience, giving the producers of "The Incredibles" a slap in the face.

When "The Incredibles" had the confidence to fight with the box office of "Shrek 2", Zhou Shaoming's "League of Assassins" was smashed at once!

"Zhou, it's so late, and you still haven't rested?" Christina came to Zhou Shaoming's side and looked at the contemplative Zhou Shaoming!

Zhou Shaoming came back to his senses, gently hugged Christina in his arms, and said with a smile: "Do you know what day it is?" ”

Christina didn't react for a while, but looking at the smile on Zhou Shaoming's face, Christina guessed: "Today is the big day for the release of "League of Assassins", has this movie achieved good results?" ”

Zhou Shaoming nodded and said, "Very good results!" ”

Christina was stunned, she really didn't expect it, and said: "That's how much higher than the box office score of the hit "Incredibles" in the theater a while ago?" Christina was a little surprised. The box office of the premiere of the movie Superman has reached 70 million, could it be that Zhou Shaoming's assassin movie has set a box office score of 80 million after the premiere of "I Am Legend"!

Zhou Shaoming shook his head, pondered, and said: "The box office performance of Superman can't be compared with the movies we released, because our movie has refreshed the highest premiere box office mark of the year in North America!" ”

Christina was stunned, listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, thinking of the amazing hundreds of millions of premiere box office results of the movie "Shrek 2", and said in disbelief: "The first box office of the Assassin movie is hundreds of millions?" ”

Zhou Shaoming's hand couldn't help but reach out to Christina's waist, nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes." With a box office score of 110 million, it successfully surpassed the box office performance of the movie "Shrek 2"! ”

Christina didn't notice that Zhou Shaoming's hand was already roaming all over her body, and she couldn't help but put her arms around Zhou Shaoming's neck and praised: "My God, Zhou, you are amazing!" I didn't expect such a thing to happen, and I don't even know what to say now. ”

Zhou Shaoming smiled lewdly on his face, "You don't need to say anything, you just need to reward me well tonight." ”

Zhou Shaoming looked at Christina's face with an extremely ambiguous expression, and Christina suddenly felt a strong love emitting from sitting on Zhou Shaoming's lap. Christina couldn't help but blush and said, "I hate it! ”

The next day, after Zhou Shaoming came to the office, George, who had been waiting for him. After seeing Zhou Shaoming coming, he hurriedly opened the red wine to celebrate!

"Zhou, you look good today." George poured red wine and couldn't help but bring it to Zhou Shaoming!

Zhou Shaoming, who had a red face, took the red wine handed over by George. said: "Our Assassin movie has achieved such a strong box office result, how can I, as a director, not be refreshed? ”

George listened to Zhou Shaoming's words. Haha laughed and said, "Zhou, what should we do now?" ”

Zhou Shaoming hesitated, took a sip of red wine, and said, "Drink, look at the box office results!" ”

When George heard Zhou Shaoming's words, he couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Zhou, you can't be proud because of this, after all, the movie "Shrek 2" has achieved a box office score of 440 million in North America alone, such an amazing box office result, do you think our movie can surpass it?" ”

Zhou Shaoming hasn't thought of this problem yet, in Zhou Shaoming's consciousness, this movie will be OK as long as it reaches the 500 million mark in the world!

After being reminded by George, Zhou Shaoming was stunned for a moment, and after thinking, he said: "It seems that we can't just drink and watch the box office results so leisurely." ”

George's eyes lit up and said, "You also have the idea of hitting the North American box office champion this year!" ”

Zhou Shaoming was full of confidence and said: "Of course there is, don't our movies have such strength?" Until the release of the movie "League of Assassins", Zhou Shaoming did not consider such a problem! But "League of Assassins" achieved such amazing box office results on the day of its release, and even Zhou Shaoming at this time was full of confidence and challenged the champion who has been on the total box office list in the United States this year!

"Shrek 2", which was released at the end of May, became an instant hit with a box office score of more than 100 million yuan, attracting 440 million box office results in the United States, and has always ranked first in the total box office list in the United States!

"The Incredibles" began with a premiere of 70 million and accumulated 150 million box office results in a week, and I am confident that I want to surpass the box office results of the Monster 2 movie!

Unexpectedly, the box office sales of Zhou Shaoming's "League of Assassins" movie broke the confidence of the production team of Superman!

Zhou Shaoming pondered, called Benjamin into the office, and said, "You go and contact the three leading members of the movie "League of Assassins", and we will start the final promotion, mainly in North America!" You're in charge! ”

After hearing Zhou Shaoming's words, George said a little unconvinced: "Zhou, I put forward this suggestion first, and I should be responsible for it!" ”

Zhou Shaoming faced George's complaint and said, "You have more important things to do!" ”

After Benjamin left, George still didn't know in his heart, and he couldn't think of the important thing Zhou Shaoming said, "What is it?" ”

Zhou Shaoming reminded George. "Originally, we discussed the development of the movie "League of Assassins" into a game, and this proposal was rejected by you, now do you think you can consider my suggestion to adapt this movie into a game!"

After George heard Zhou Shaoming's words, he couldn't help but think about it and said, "Didn't our company have a problem with funds at that time?" Coupled with the uncertain box office results of the Assassin movie, it would be a big loss to redevelop this game! ”

Zhou Shaoming sighed and said, "What about now? ”

George hurriedly said: "Of course this game is going to be developed now, the box office is so hot, don't develop it as soon as possible!" ”

Zhou Shaoming shook his head. said: "George, as far as I know, when this assassin game is developed, it may have to wait until next year, and I hope that this kind of thing will be decided as soon as possible, similar to these commercial blockbusters with development game projects, and start construction early, so as not to miss the opportunity in the market!" ”

George listened to Zhou Shaoming's words. I couldn't help but wonder, "How do you judge if a movie is suitable for a game?" ”

Zhou Shaoming said what he thought in his heart: "First of all, based on the quality of the movie, we don't always predict the market share and box office performance of the movie, and the following is the matter of Blizzard, and they will also make a judgment." That is, whether the plot of the movie itself is suitable for development into a game! If you have both, then the film will be developed from the time of filming, and wait until the movie is released. Even if it is launched on the market, this is the purpose of our development and launch of this game! ”

Zhou Shaoming shook the red wine in his hand as he spoke, and said, "It's like an assassin game." Blizzard will not be able to postpone the game until 3 months at the earliest, and then our movie will not be as popular as it is now, which will naturally affect sales in the market. ”

Listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, George couldn't help but say, "Then why didn't you stop my behavior at that time." George didn't think about this, and now that he thinks about it, he regrets rejecting Zhou Shaoming's idea in the first place!

Zhou Shaoming shook his head and said: "Your consideration at the time was not wrong, as long as our movie is popular enough and occupies a firm position in the hearts of the audience, as long as the game comes out, are you afraid that there will be no sales?" It's just that this idea of mine, which is a bit speculative, takes a lot of risks, and once the film is not as good as we expected, all the investment in the game will not be recovered. ”

George self-examined: "No, the mall is like a battlefield, and now the debt that our company is burdened with must require us to invest high risk and high investment in order to pay off the debt as soon as possible!" ”

Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up, and he praised George: "George, you have changed a lot, it seems that you are no longer a miser?" ”

Faced with Zhou Shaoming's jokes. George glared at Zhou Shaoming and said, "Now how can we have the money for me to guard, how can we adapt to the current environment if we don't change!" ”

Zhou Shaoming laughed out loud and said, "Good brothers have to share hardships!" ”

George couldn't help but laugh and responded, "It's really unfortunate to be your partner in Zhou." George took the last sip of red wine and said, "I'll talk to Blizzard about it now!" ”

November 12th is the second day of the release of "League of Assassins", and "League of Assassins", which continues to rise at the box office, has instantly become the new darling of the media!

With the end of the premiere day of "League of Assassins", the box office results in North America came out, and 110 million successfully broke the 108 million box office results of the movie "Shrek 2"!

In North America, "League of Assassins" deservedly became the number one box office result in its premiere, while in other regions, "League of Assassins" also had a good box office result!

Especially in the Chinese film market, "League of Assassins" became a dark horse in the Chinese film market in 2004 with a box office result of 230 million, and the box office result of more than 200 million is equivalent to the box office result of 30 million in North America!

The box office results of South Korea and Japan combined also amounted to 20 million US dollars! The box office performance of the movie "League of Assassins" alone in the world has reached 160 million!

When Zhou Shaoming saw such box office results, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, for the task assigned this time, it seems that it can be easily completed!

With a box office result of more than 500 million, Zhou Shaoming smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, this is not a very difficult thing!

"Don't get complacent too soon." After the system felt the thoughts in Zhou Shaoming's heart, he ran out and hit Zhou Shaoming and said: "You must know that not everyone can achieve a box office score of more than 400 million in North America." There are so many movies in North America every year, and only one or two movies can achieve such terrifying box office results! ”

Zhou Shaoming heard the words of the system. couldn't help frowning and said, "You seem to have come out specifically to hit me!" ”

The system said mischievously: "I'm just worried about you, seeing that you are a little too proud and complacent, thinking that you can almost complete my task, you start to be complacent, you must know that the box office results you want to achieve now are a little difficult!" ”

Zhou Shaoming snorted and said, "No matter how difficult things are, can they stump me Zhou Shaoming?" In one fell swoop, it became the champion of the annual box office list in North America, and the movie "League of Assassins" still has such potential! ”

Zhou Shaoming continued: "No, I'm taking the leading members of the crew with me now. There's still hope for a lot of hype in North America, you say? ”

When the system heard Zhou Shaoming's words, he couldn't help but agree: "There is hope, then you come on, but don't forget, I chose this movie for you, and I was really lucky to achieve amazing box office results when the time comes, but don't forget my credit!" ”

Zhou Shaoming was stunned. Listening to the system's words, he laughed and said, "You still want to take credit from me?" Then do I give you money to spend or buy you a sports car and a villa! Why don't I make a promise! ”

The system listened to Zhou Shaoming's joke, snorted and said: "It's destined to be with a rotten person like you for a lifetime, so I don't want to make any promises for a lifetime." I'll tell you when I think of it! ”

The system that came and went in a hurry made Zhou Shaoming a little puzzled, just when Zhou Shaoming was planning to use the movie "League of Assassins" to start hitting the champion of the annual box office list in North America, the system suddenly appeared. I planned Zhou Shaoming's thoughts!

After the system disappeared, Zhou Shaoming opened his eyes again, and it seemed that he was connected to the system. I also have confidence in the movie "League of Assassins"!

On November 12th, "League of Assassins" continued to end with a box office score of 50 million in North America, although there was no terrifying result on the day of the premiere, but for the theater box office revenue of the day, the movie "League of Assassins" accounted for 8%.

And the movie "Looking for Neverland", which was released on the 12th, basically failed under the influence of "League of Assassins", and only had a pitiful box office score of 2 million on the day of its premiere!

"Finding Neverland" did not do as well as "League of Assassins" in North American theaters at the box office in a city!

For such a pitiful box office result, we can only blame the inappropriate choice of the movie "Looking for Neverland" when it was released! How dare you play in a game like League of Assassins? " Such a commercial blockbuster will be released later, and it is no wonder that it does not fail!

After the popularity of "League of Assassins" in North America, Blizzard also began to release good news, at this time, Blizzard began to develop games for League of Assassins, which made loyal viewers of "League of Assassins" movies happy!

While it may take three or four months for the game, a loyal group of Assassin fans will be willing to wait, as long as the game doesn't come out after a few years of development like World of Warcraft!

After being acquired by Supernova Entertainment in 2004, Blizzard began a new take-off, with the successful launch of World of Warcraft, a 3D game!

For a time, the inside of this attracted many gamers, and the 2004 Frozen Throne World Tournament also ended successfully, which made players who like Warcraft stand-alone games too addicted, watching the wonderful games of the world players, I can't help but sigh the charm of Warcraft games!

After Benjamin arranged the promotion of "League of Assassins", he came to Zhou Shaoming's office and said: "Zhou, Morgan, Jude Law, and Scarlett Johansson have been contacted, and we will start a press conference tomorrow to start the promotion in North America!" ”

Zhou Shaoming nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Although the promotion of "League of Assassins" in the early stage was very strong, but seeing the premiere results of the League of Assassins movie on the day of the premiere, Zhou Shaoming plans to make another final promotional offensive to add more box office results to this movie! This is a common occurrence in Hollywood!

When the news of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company will hold a press conference is released!

In Hollywood, director Chris Miller said in The New York Observer: "The League of Assassins is clearly a brutal film, and I can't see why it did so well at the box office!" Hmph, although it is a little more than the box office results of my "Shrek 2" premiere, it is obvious that the total box office results of the Shrek movie I shot cannot be surpassed by the League of Assassins movie! This is an indisputable fact.,I think I'm going to shoot Shrek 3 in the next part.,I don't know if the boring plot of the League of Assassins can still shoot a second part!? ”

For Chris Miller, the director of "Shrek 2", "Shrek 2" is obviously the leader in North America regardless of the first box office at the premiere box office this year or the cumulative box office results throughout the year, but when the movie "League of Assassins" is released!

After the box office performance of the premiere of "Shrek 2", which has been praised by the media, was compared to the League of Assassins, Chris Miller was really depressed! When he was interviewed by the New York Observation Room, he expressed his dissatisfaction with the movie "League of Assassins"! (To be continued......)
