Chapter 330: Annual Influence

According to the statistics of relevant departments in China, in 2007, there were more than 400 domestic feature films, and the total box office income of the domestic film market excluding the rural market was 3.934 billion yuan, almost breaking through the 4 billion mark, an increase of more than 600 million yuan over the box office in 2006, an increase of 23.12%, of which the box office income of Chinese films was 2.141 billion yuan, an increase of more than 300 million yuan over last year, accounting for 54.42% of the total box office revenue, and the share of the domestic market exceeded that of imported films for five consecutive years.

This year, a total of 39 state-owned and private distribution companies participated in the market competition, among which due to the monopoly of the distribution of imported account-sharing films by China Film and Huaxia, the distribution box office of China Film leads the major film companies with an absolute advantage, ranking second is Huaxia, the third is Shuguang Film, followed by Poly Bona and Huayi Brothers, these five major distribution companies occupy 81% of the market share.

Last year, Shuguang Film Company released a total of four films, of which "Painted Wall" and "Crazy Racing" both won the weekly box office championship, of which "Painted Wall" won three consecutive weeks, "Crazy Racing" for a week, with remarkable results, and the remaining two films, including "Love Call Transfer 2", which was released for a week, were quite good at the box office, and finally, "Painted Wall" received 172 million box office, "Crazy Racing" 142 million, "Dreams Come True" 13.1 million, "Love Call Transfer 2" 15 "200,000", plus the 3.25 million box office of "Love Call Transfer 2" on December 31, Shuguang Films received a total of 345.7 million box office with four movies in 07, with an average of 86.42 million per movie.

Such an achievement is naturally unmatched among the film companies in the three places. It deserves to be the most limelight of the year. The most dazzling Chinese film production company.

In addition, the annual box office rankings in the mainland have largely settled. The reason why it is basic is because several movies that can have a heavy impact on the charts, including "Hurricane Rescue", "Assembly Number", and "Casting the Name", are still being released, and so far, the annual box office champion is "Transformers", which has a box office of 291 million, but this result is very likely to be surpassed by the backward "Hurricane Rescue", which is currently in second place with a box office of 272 million, and the third place is "Painted Wall" with a box office of 172 million. The fourth to tenth places are "Spider-Man 3" with 156 million, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" with 149 million, "Lust and Caution" with 145 million, "Crazy Racing" with 142 million, "Pirates of the Caribbean: The End of the World" with 133 million, "The Assembly" with 104 million, "007: Casino Royale" with 94.8 million, and "Vote" ranked eleventh with 94.55 million.

According to the current trend, Lin Yuquan's film will top the annual box office in the mainland for the third consecutive year after "Red Cliff" and "Huo Yuanjia", which is almost an unprecedented achievement.

The two films entered the top 10, ranking 3rd and 7th respectively, and the outstanding performance of Dawning Films was fully revealed.

As for "Casting a Name", it should be the most disappointed Chinese film this year, with an investment of 300 million, the mainland box office is expected to be about 120 million, even if the box office in Hong Kong, Baodao and other places is added, it is a great failure. When summarizing the reasons for its failure, the two points that have to be mentioned are the wrong schedule and time, and the incomplete fight and war scenes compared with Lin Yuquan's movie.

And for North America, after breaking the all-time high in 2004. The total box office in North America last year was finally fixed at $9.67 billion, and together with "Fake Gods 2", which just broke 100 million at the box office, there are 29 films that grossed hundreds of millions of dollars at the North American box office.

With the end of the Dec. 28-Dec. 30 week, Sony Pictures was the studio with 11 top-notch weekends last year, followed by Disney and Paramount DreamWorks (10), Warner Bros. (7), Universal Pictures and 20th Century Fox (4), Lionsgate (3), New Line, MGM, Weinstein and Summit Entertainment (1).

Meanwhile, in overseas markets, Hollywood movies grossed $10.3 billion last year, up 17 percent from 2006 and also hitting a record high.

In terms of box office revenues, last year was largely a happy year for Hollywood studios, and unlike previous years, when some companies fell significantly behind at the box office due to film failures, all six major studios grossed more than $1 billion in North America last year.

Last year, the North American box office market share occupied by the six major Hollywood studios was also renamed, and the number of box office champions in a single weekend is not equal to the market share ranking, and finally Paramount jumped to the first place in 2007 with a North American box office of $1.49 billion from fifth place in 2006, with a market share of 15.41%, and a total of 16 films were released throughout the year, with an average box office of $93.12 million per film, including "Shrek 3" and "Transformers" released by it It earned $322 million and $319 million at the North American box office respectively, ranking second and third in the annual box office list in North America so far, second only to Sony's "Spider-Man 3" with 336 million.

In fact, this is entirely the acquisition of DreamWorks two years ago to fuel this jump, if it weren't for DreamWorks, Paramount Pictures' results last year can be described as a mess, the scolded bloody "Beowulf", "Stardust" and "Foresee the Future" box office miserable, but it can be worthy of 82.19 million, 38.37 million, 18.04 million US dollars at the box office, and its cost is as high as 70 million, 70 million, 80 million US dollars.

In second place is Warner Bros., with a total box office of $1.417 billion and a market share of 14.65%, and the highest-grossing film of the year is "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" at $292 million, in addition to "I Am Legend" with $198 million, "Hiding from the Sea" at $117 million, and "Why Be Happy Christmas" at $72 million, with 24 films released throughout the year, with an average of $59.04 million each. Win by numbers.

In third place is Disney-owned Broadway. The total box office is $1.35 billion. With a market share of 13.96%, 13 films were released throughout the year, with an average box office of $104 million each, quite an amazing result, the most eye-catching of the table is undoubtedly "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: The End of the World", with a box office of $309 million in North America, in addition to "Ratatouille" with $206 million, "Ride Out" with $168 million, "National Treasure 2: Treasure Hunt" with $125 million, "Enchanted Magic" with $127 million, and "Magic and Magic" with $97.82 million. Meet the Robinsons" is quite good.

In fourth place is Sony Pictures, with a total box office of $1.245 billion. The market share is 12.87%, and 20 films have been released, with an average box office of $62.25 million each, of which the highest-grossing "Spider-Man 3" topped the annual North American box office list with $336 million, compared with last year, Sony's performance this year has declined, although there are super-blockbuster films like "Spider-Man 3" and dark horse films like "Superbad" at $121 million and "Ghost Rider" with a decent $115 million to support the situation, but several box office dumb eggs are really dragging their feet, $61.58 million for "Hip-hop Boy", $58.86 million for "Surfing Penguins", $50.64 million for "Resident Evil 3: Aftermath", Bruce. Wesley and Hallie. The thriller "Perfect Strangers" starring Berry became a box office tragedy with $23.7 million. And it's also one of the worst word-of-mouth films of the year.

In fifth place is Universal Pictures, with a total box office of $1.101 billion. The market share is 11.38%, and 18 films were released throughout the year, with an average box office of $61.16 million each, the highest grossing is "Spy 3" with $227 million, a new high in the series, and four other films have a box office of more than 100 million, namely "One Night Big Belly" with $148 million, "American Gangster" with $130 million, "My Grand Gay Wedding" with $120 million, and "Impostor God 2" with $120 million, of which "One Night Big Belly" can be called one of the biggest box office dark horses this year. With an investment cost of only $30 million, there is no doubt that the poor performance of "Fake Gods 2" and "Fatal Visit" dragged down Universal's results, especially "Fatal Visit", with an investment of $80 million that only earned $11.46 million at the North American box office, which did little to help Universal Pictures compete for market share.

In sixth place is 20th Century Fox, with a total box office of $1.01 billion, a market share of 10.44%, and 16 films released annually, with an average box office of $63.12 million each, 20th Century Fox's biggest problem last year was undoubtedly the lack of pillars, its highest-grossing film was only $183 million for "The Simpsons", but fortunately there were $145 million for "Alvin and the Chipmunks", $135 million for "Die Hard 4", and $132 million for "Fantastic Four 2" The table is okay, otherwise it will be dragged down by other films, and it will be pulled down a big gap.

In addition to these six major film companies, the next turn is the major independent film companies, ranking seventh, occupying the top of the list of independent film companies is New Line Pictures, New Line Pictures has released a total of seven films this year, with a total box office of 430 million, a market share of 4.45%, and an average box office of $60 million per movie, with the highest grossing being "Rush Hour 3" at $140 million and "Hairspray" at $118 million.

In eighth place is Lionsgate, which released a total of 8 films, with a box office of $297 million, a market share of 3.07%, and an average box office of $37.12 million per movie, Lionsgate did not have too high-grossing films, the highest-grossing "Saw 4" was $63.3 million, and the other $55.2 million "Regrets" and $53.6 million "Duel Yuma Town" were all good.

In 9th place is Summit Entertainment, although Summit Entertainment has only released two movies, but who made the box office of "Hurricane Rescue" so hot, with a total box office of 288 million US dollars, a market share of 2.98%, and an average box office of 144 million US dollars per movie, the absolute number of demons, although this is due to the fact that Summit Entertainment has released fewer movies, but with such outstanding results, Summit Entertainment has completely risen and occupied a real place in Hollywood.

followed by MGM's 6 films with a total box office of $128 million, a market share of 1.29%, and an average box office of $21.33 million per movie; Dimen's five films grossed $127.4 million. The market share is 1.27%. Makubao has a market share of 1.17%; Focus Searchlight market share 1.11%; Focus market share 1.04%; Weinstein Films' market share 0.85%

If you look at the box office ranking of each film in a single film. Summit Entertainment naturally deserves to occupy the top spot, followed by Disney, Paramount, 20th Century Fox, Sony Columbia, Universal Pictures, and New Line Pictures, both groups of JÙ tables are so good, and this is only the first year that Lin Yuquan acquired Summit Entertainment, well, Lin Yuquan has once again created his own miracle, which also makes almost everyone look forward to next year's Summit Entertainment.

In the next year, Paramount will have Iron Man, Raiders of the Lost Ark IV: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and Kung Fu Panda. Warner Bros. has "The Dark Knight of Batman" and "Confused Detective", Sony Columbia has "Superman Hancock for All", Disney has "The Chronicles of Narnia 2: Prince Caspian" and "The Machine", Universal Pictures has "Wanted", "The Mummy 3", 20th Century Fox has "Horton and Anonymous", "The X-Files 2", and Summit Entertainment is also not inferior in high-profile films, "Savage: Rise of the Apes" and "Twilight: Twilight" will be released together, although "Twilight: Twilight" It's a little worrying, but it's really something to look forward to.

After the first year, Shuguang Film, which Lin Yuquan acquired, won the box office market share champion of mainland film companies investing in the production of zuò films for three consecutive years, so what kind of results can Summit Entertainment achieve in the three years after the first year? Perhaps because the competition in Hollywood is much greater than in China, it is difficult for Summit Entertainment to achieve the same feat. So is it possible to catch up with the big six studios and become the top seven studios in Hollywood? Just like the original Dream Factory.

For pinnacle entertainment. To be precise, for Lin Yuquan, who has repeatedly created the miracle of zào, people have too much to look forward to, and it is difficult not to look forward to him.

In the overseas film market, the six major studios also earned more than $1 billion at the box office last year, among which Warner Bros., which launched blockbusters such as "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", "Ocean's Thirteen" and "Blood Diamond", led the way with $2.15 billion, Disney ranked second with about $1.6 billion, followed by 20th Century Fox, Paramount, Sony Columbia and Universal Pictures, followed by Summit Entertainment, although New Line and Lionsgate both grossed more North America than Summit Entertainment, but the $440 million that "Hurricane Rescue" collected overseas alone is enough to outperform a number of independent film companies.

At the same time, a variety of other annual inventories are also emerging, such as the highest-grossing film in North America "Spider-Man 3", the sequel is the most profitable, "Spider-Man 3", "Shrek 3", "Spy 3", "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" The most expensive shots, and the New York Street Scene in "I Am Legend" set a record of burning $5 million for 6 shots;

Not many people have seen "This Man is From Earth," the most overlooked film, but the psychological shock of the $10,000 TV movie dwarfs even the combined special effects of all this year's visually bombardment films. If it weren't for the congenital deficiencies in the dissemination of TV and movies, the huge wave set off by this film with an IMDB score of 8.4 would have swept the humanities headlines of all newspapers and magazines. The most prolific star of the year, none other than the glamorous Jessica Alba, starring in as many as five films from "The Ten Commandments", "Fantastic Four 2: The Rise of the Silver Surfer", "Good Luck Chuck" to "Bill" and "Sober";

The most loss-making movies, "Dark Materials: The Golden Compass" and "Fake Gods 2", the former invested 180 million US dollars, the North American box office 70.1 million US dollars, the latter invested 175 million, and the North American box office just broke 100 million; But the total box office of this film in the final year can't even pay her salary, the best male rookie of the year, Xi'an who starred in "Transformers". LaBeouf, the best female rookie of the year, starred in "One Night's Big Belly" Catherine. Heigl

Naturally, such a most inventory, how can there be less of Lin Yuquan and the shadow of "Hurricane Rescue", the most cost-effective director of the year, Lin Yuquan, "Hurricane Rescue" won the global estimated more than 700 million with only 80 million US dollars investment, chasing 800 million US dollars at the box office, his cost performance is unmatched, followed by "One Night Belly" and "Super Bad" director Judd. Apatow, two comedy films with a total investment of $50 million, swept the global box office of 450 million, the best action film of the year, "Hurricane Rescue", Lin Yuquan's fantastic action scenes dwarfed "Transformers"; The most profitable movie of the year, "Hurricane Rescue", compared to other blockbusters, the ultra-low cost and share, so that it is undoubtedly in this position, the most profitable independent film company of the year, Summit Entertainment, although it is not comparable with the six major film companies, but who else is the independent film company, the most charming actor of the year, Lin Yuquan

Lin Yuquan handed in a dazzling report card in his first year in Hollywood, if his achievements are compared with Chinese directors, it is even more unbeatable, but not only in terms of movies, in the past year, his "Wild Story" has become the best-selling novel in North America, mainland China, Hong Kong and countless places, he won the best costume design at the Oscars, becoming the first Asian to win this award, he appeared in "Time Magazine", became the cover character of the American and Asian editions, and he appeared on "Oprah Talk Show", It is the hottest issue in recent years, he occupies a stake in Alibaba's listing, and has become a world-class billionaire In this year, he has achieved too much.

When taking stock of Lin Yuquan, the Los Angeles Times summed up Lin Yuquan's achievements in 2007 with these words, "The world's most influential entertainment figure of the year." ”

In the 2008 Hollywood Movie Power List released by the New York Daily News, Lin Yuquan occupies the top spot, and behind him is Jim Brown, chairman and CEO of Fox Film Entertainment. Gianopouros and Tom. Rothman, Walt Disney Company Chairman Richard Brown. Michael Cook, Chairman and CEO of Sony Entertainment. At the helm of a film giant like Linton, as well as Steven. Spielberg, David. Big-name directors like Finch, and Tom Brown. Hanks, Brad. A superstar actor like Pete.

Among them, Lin Yuquan's evaluation is "handsome appearance, all-round talent, amazing skills, wisdom, humility, and low-key These are typical kung fu Lin characteristics, only this one, no other semicolon, in the past year, he launched the world's popular "Hurricane Rescue", the global box office is expected to exceed 700 million US dollars, is the most cost-effective director, but also the most charismatic actor. But not only that, he is also the chairman of Summit Entertainment, relying on "Hurricane Rescue", Summit Entertainment was already the brightest independent film company last year, and this year's performance is even more exciting, the popular global novel of the same name "Wild Story: Rise of the Apes" and "Twilight: Twilight" and the sequel to the high-grossing horror movie "Fatal Bend 2", their next moves, are "Twilight: New Moon", "Fatal Bend 3", the epic war movie "Fatal Bend" with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars Spartan 300 Warriors", of course, and the most anticipated new work of Kung Fu Lin, although I don't know why, but as long as Kung Fu Lin shoots a movie, it will be the eye-catching movie of the year, just like Stevens. Pearsberg, James. Cameron. ”

Yes, even though "Hurricane Rescue" is still in theaters, everyone is already looking forward to his new movie, which is the influence and extraordinary magic of Lin today.

Lin Yuquan has undoubtedly become the hottest person in the year-end inventory, in this regard, Lin Yuquan just smiled and put himself into work, this is just the beginning, he wants to be the best. (To be continued......)

ps: Thank you for the monthly ticket support of the two friends of the book friend Hao Tianshenhuang, and I will also say that the box office of the mainland film market has been modified, and it was previously mentioned in chapter 308 that the mainland box office in early December 07 has exceeded 4 billion, changed to 3.5 billion, otherwise the mainland box office in 07 will reach more than 4.3 billion, exceeding the historical 3.3 billion billion, according to the situation written in the novel, it is impossible, at least two movies with a box office of more than 100 million need to be conjured out of thin air, hey, it is not thoughtful in the butterfly effect.
