Although "Inception" broke many film history records at the fastest speed, just like last year's "Batman: The Dark Knight". But industry insiders believe that its final North American box office will be locked at about $500 million, and it is impossible to sink the miracle of "Titanic" after all. Even the 550 million of "Batman: The Dark Knight" is not enough.

As one of the investors of "Inception", although it is less than a fifth of the investment, Warner Pictures is still very excited, and they have seized the cash cow! But in the face of reporters' inquiries about the box office estimate of "Inception", William Conner, an executive of Warner's distribution department, was a little bit of a 369: he was not afraid of any opponent and said obediently that he only expected the North American box office of "Inception" to get 500 million, and did not think that it could exceed 550 million.

No way, the "Batman" series is also a treasure of Warner! But relatively speaking, "Inception" is just a small investor, and compared with its own cash cow, "Batman" is naturally more important.

Naturally, this news has little value at all, and this reporter can only be blamed for asking the wrong person. Warner's expectations are useless, the money is all in Li Donglai's pocket, and they should ask the big boss.

In fact, the senior management of Warner has begun to regret why they didn't invest more at the beginning, but now they can only watch Li Donglai's pockets bulge and bulge.

A small independent film company. It's unimaginable that it's more profitable than a Hollywood film giant.

Many investment giants have set their sights on the Phantom Company, because this small company, less than 100 people, and almost Li Donglai's personal film studio played alone, only signed Zach this year. But compared to the assets of millions of dollars at the time of its establishment, it has increased hundreds of times!

And Li Donglai himself has almost a complete controlling stake in this company, and the development of the entire company is all determined by him. It's really 369: not afraid of any opponent is incredible, it's just too profitable! Now they still have a "Hangover" series that is destined to make a lot of money, and maybe the "Inception" series will be added in the future.

Investment giants are looking forward to the Phantom listing. It's good to get involved.

The media had mixed reviews of the striking table on the North American box office charts in the new week: "Inception is a very, very special kind of movie, and it's sure that it will be a box office hit, but it's a little early to say that it can break the global box office of 1 billion." You know. Although its reviews and opening day box office exceeded everyone's expectations, there are still many negatives, the first of which is that a blockbuster film will be released next week to grab market share. When people see a 3D movie for the first time, they must have a curious mentality, and a second 3D movie will appear next week, and in comparison, it will reflect a different mentality, maybe not as crazy as it is now.

"Also, the plot of Inception is too tight, even though the plot is not difficult to understand. is still a high-IQ movie, which indirectly isolates some audiences. Some viewers like to watch Xiaobai movies, and you can't deny this fact.

"But "Inception" also really has the qualifications of a big hit, big names, special effects, action, storytelling...... It's off to a good start at the moment, and as for how far it can go in the end. We'll see. ”

Having said that, analysts at the "New York Times" still made an assessment and predicted that the North American box office is expected to rush to 500 million, becoming the fifth film in film history, and Li Donglai will enter the 500 million club for the first time, and he is also the only foreigner in the 500 million club. He is also the first Chinese to achieve this achievement. The global box office is expected to rush to 900 million, and it is also the eighth film in film history to break 900 million.

Some authoritative media box office statistics agencies are very bullish and calm about "Inception", and analysts are conservative about whether it will become the fifth film in history to surpass the $1 billion global box office after last year's blockbuster "Batman: The Dark Knight," which of course does not take into account inflation.

The crazy weekend opening of "Inception" won an unprecedented $200 million, but the media and analysts here are still so conservative, naturally because of their concerns.

The Christmas schedule has always been a battleground for major companies, and this Christmas has not yet opened, and the war has spread.

Big-name stars and big-name directors emerge in an endless stream, and big-name productions are dazzling.

Not to mention that the blockbuster "Avatar", which has already ignited the flames of war, will be released a week before Christmas, and the Oscar hit "Unconquerable" will also be released next week, which constitutes the most intuitive confrontation with "Inception".

But experts predict that this Oscar-winning work will not be able to claim the championship.

However, after entering the Christmas schedule, 20th Century Fox's "Alvin and the Chipmunk 2" will also be released after the first film has achieved great popularity. Warner Bros. starring Iron Man Robert Downey Jr.'s blockbuster "Sherlock Holmes and Watson" with a score by Hans Zimmer, Oscar-winning Weinstein's "Nine", Sony's "If You Say Me Too", and a series of popular films such as "Love is Complicated" directed by Universal Pictures and directed by famous director Nancy Meyers and starring Meryl Streep will ignite the fire of war at Christmas.

Christmas schedule, in this battleground for soldiers, anything can happen, which is why there is such a conservative estimate.

Inception got off to a strong and intriguing start, but look at the percentage of the decline in the second weekend.

Having said that, although Lee Dong-lai has always been optimistic before the release of the movie, he calmly faced the cynicism and wishing Waterloo to most of the unfair media in North America, just like the treatment of "The Hangover" when it was released.

But now, Li Donglai took the lead in clearing up a question, and "Inception" has risen strongly!

For a while, the audience was boiling, and it also made the sluggish theater market boil!

The happiest thing about Inception right now may not be the Phantom movie, but the theater owners; The bosses, who didn't sign a screening contract with the Phantom, beat their chests. Even if you pounce on the Phantom Film Headquarters right away to scramble for the film reel, you'll miss the first week, and it's bad!

But the cinema company still has to pick up the phone.

This is a big gold mine, for cinemas and electric men's theaters, and even more so for phantom movies.

Li Donglai led a group of elite teams of Inception to travel around the world, but none of the Phantom Hundred could not be idle, and various movie peripheral products began to appear on the market. Those little toys. It's happening here because of a movie. Things like an old spinning top, a sieve with a phantom logo on it, and so on. The most anticipated thing is the soundtrack of the movie and the DVD with private work inside.

When Li Donglai was interviewed, he was asked what to expect from the DVD.

He implicitly revealed some clips that are inconvenient to show on the big screen. will be presented on DVD.

"Yes, all the bosses say that, but there's no Leonardo and Kate's bed scene in it. Or do you go into battle on your own? The journalist was not satisfied with this explanation.

Li Donglai pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe there will be a second ending in the DVD......"

And for good reason.

The audience's speculation about the ending of the movie is not a day or two, a small number of people have been speculating that this is to prepare for the sequel, and most people believe that the movie will have a different ending, but the director has not released it. Now it has finally been confirmed, and it may indeed be revealed on DVD......

As a result, DVDs that have not yet been released have also been booked in advance by merchants around the world!

Today's "Inception" is really a treasure, and it seems to form a new culture about "dreams". In fact, the impact of a blockbuster movie is even a big business. The rise of new culture is bound to be limited to movies. Comics, books, TV series, games, etc. can all be developed, and naturally there are also indispensable peripheral toys for collections......

After the box office of the movie came out on the first weekend, Li Donglai had already negotiated with several backbones of the company to develop the game "Inception", which is also the consistent method of blockbusters. The peripheral products it drives will continue to make money for film companies in a few years or more than a decade.

The greater the success achieved in the screening stage. The more post-production power is provided, the opening of "Inception" in the first weekend is satisfying, which makes Li Donglai's blacks upset. Especially some WWE fans, they can't get used to it, although they have long known that WWE is full of a group of actors, but they are still disappointed by such a neat pick.

WWE couldn't stop Lee Dong-lai. And Li Donglai insisted on stepping on the corpses of WWE strong men and walked towards the ranks of kung fu superstars, seeing that the third movie was so popular that it made WWE fans angry. As a result, there have been some calls on some forums recently, all kinds of agitation, confusion, and excitement to connect Li Donglai with UFC ultimate martial arts.

Speaking of martial arts, after all, it is the UFC that is the real fist to the flesh and the skin to the blood, and WWE is a group of actors.

They made things bigger with expectations, just like when the mourner Twitter provoked Li Donglai, he went out to fight, and wanted Li Donglai to go to the ring again. Only this time it's not WWE wrestling, it's a real fighting ring UFC.

There are three kinds of people who participate in this promotion, one is purely to show Li Donglai's true form on the UFC, and to him be beaten hard, and not to be flaunted with words such as 'powerful'. The other kind of people are fans of Li Donglai's real kung fu, and they want to see another Li Xiaolong appear. The last type of person is purely for the fun. "Li Donglai stepped into the ring again, not WWE but UFC", this topic is indeed more attractive.

But now that Li Donglai's worth has doubled, is a billionaire really willing to go into the ring again and face a scene that may be extremely embarrassing? That's a problem...... Die, clown! "Do you dare to play in the UFC, it's nothing on WWE, dare to play in the UFC ring!" "Shit, what bullshit "Inception", isn't there a media report that someone left early when they couldn't see half of the premiere, that clown-like Chinese, actually ran out to keep it, but others don't ** him. Isn't this news seen by anyone? Damn, don't mention Inception, I didn't even want to see it. ”

has a good side, and there is never a shortage of such evil words behind the scenes.

A good reporter interviewed Li Donglai, who was participating in a propaganda campaign in Paris, France, and asked him how he responded to the provocations launched by countless netizens on the Internet.

Li Donglai hasn't figured out what's going on yet, but it's about his own kung fu, so he can't ignore it at will, even if he doesn't care about it, there is still an old man in China who is always paying attention to him, maybe the next time he meets the old man, he will be beaten hard. Compared to being k in the ring, he cares more about the old man khim.

"I don't know what the situation is, or if they're noisy," he said implicitly. But I'm sorry, I haven't heard anything from the UFC, and I can't get into that ring without a martial arts license. ”

Le Monde reporter Calderón's eyes lit up and he asked: "You mean that as long as the UFC gives you the green light, you can stand in the ring of the UFC, right?" ”

Li Donglai smiled and said: "Who can say for sure, but as long as it is a reasonable, legal and fair challenge, I am not afraid of any opponent." ”

The domineering declaration of modesty made the reporters all widen their eyes, "Great, there is news again...... The old donkey has a lot of free words in each chapter, and if it is in parentheses before the chapter, it won't cost money!
