The box office of North American movies exceeded 100 million, which is a remarkable level.

Because its surroundings are scary - the average box office of the movie accounts for 30%, and the remaining 70% is peripherals!

Even for pure comedies like "Knocking on Heaven's Door", which is difficult to develop, DVD sales are very scary - the average Hollywood film DVD sales and rentals are 2 to 3 times that of the box office, and high-quality comedies are usually more powerful, such as the "Hangover" trilogy, DVD sales are five at the box office!

In addition, there are TV copyrights, network copyrights...

In fact, last year's "Truman's World", North American DVD revenue has reached $60 million...

Of course, it is not comparable to the Hong Kong films of Big Brother Cheng - Big Brother Cheng's North American DVD revenue has accumulated 2 billion US dollars!

China's No. 1 superstar, the name is really not called for nothing - the big brother is not called for nothing! Although I can't beat it anymore when I'm old! But the status is still the big brother!

The results of "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" don't say that Xiaobai didn't expect it, even Lionsgate was scared!

The last time the movie in North America broke 100 million was the "Hunger Games" series...

Lionsgate is now wondering if to adapt Kung Fu into a North American version...

……

The North American box office market is very mature, and the movies that generally hit the box office must have done market analysis before.

If you want to produce as much as you want, you have to invest a lot, and of course, there are occasional misses, but that's the case for the most part!

"Knocking on Heaven's Door", with a total investment of less than $30 million, a seven-day box office of nearly $100 million, and 3,800 theaters - more than 5,000 theaters in North America...

Most of the actors who mainly watch "Knock on the Door of Heaven" are American actors, and the Chinese movies of Big Brother Cheng have only 1,300 highest opening records in North America - Hollywood's discrimination against foreign lands has existed since ancient times, not to mention China, even British movies are the same, Guy Ritchie's "Two Big Smoking Guns" is so hanging, how much is the North American box office?

$3.75 million...

What's more, "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" has not yet been released in the mainland...

There is no need for Xiaobai to promote, and the slag wave Weibo directly pushed: "Congratulations to Bai Xiaofei's movie "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" The North American box office exceeded 100 million..."

The people who eat melons are still wondering if "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" was not a movie six years ago? Why is it only being released in North America now?

After reading the stills, I realized that this was the North American version!

A work that has been played once is brought to North America, and the old bottle is new, and it can still sell well?

What else can be said?

It's too hanging!

Hang b!

During the Spring Festival, "The Demon of the Fengshen Trilogy" was released, and the box office performance was very good - there are no opponents of any magnitude, and almost one of them monopolizes the number of films.

On the first day of release, Bai Xiaofei's box office score of 6.4 billion was refreshed, and it directly hit 6.6 billion...

Of course, because of the problem of word of mouth, the follow-up box office failed to keep up, but the special effects are really good, although the story is not very good, but the basic logic still stands - Wu Ershan movies have always been like this...

After 15 days of release, seeing that it was about to break 3 billion, the hot spot was robbed by Bai Xiaofei.

Bai Xiaofei was interviewed by Za Lang Weibo:

“… Actually, I didn't know that the box office would be so good, it was originally a task, because the "One Flew Over the Asylum" I was going to shoot was very likely to be a box office slump, but Lionsgate still invested, and they asked me to shoot "Knocking on Heaven's Door", of course I agreed..."

"Didn't hear anything? I finished filming in 22 days, edited it in two days, and Lionsgate was responsible for the soundtrack, subtitles, and so on..."

"It was November 10 last year, yes, it was taken in Hungary."

"I'm surprised..."

"Unlikely, "Knocking on the Door of Heaven", when I wrote the screenplay, I referred to the Western narrative, and the subsequent "Riding the Wind and Waves" is pure oriental humor..."

"Thank you and Happy New Year..."

Originally, there were still many people who thought that Bai Xiaofei would lose a lot of supporters if he was absent from the Spring Festival stalls, or if he switched to the United States, but now it seems that it is not like that at all, and people are now earning dollars!

……

Breaking 100 million at the North American box office is a remarkable achievement – it's true!

Don't look at Hollywood sweeping the world, but there are only about 30 films a year in North America that break 100 million, most of which are sequels or comic films...

Purely original IP, even Spielberg is not easy to make!

The Washington Post's North American box office was fixed at $817.37 million;

"Dream Giant", the North American box office is only 55.48 million US dollars;

"Bridge of Spies", North American box office $710.83 million...

The last movie of the great god that broke 100 million in North America was "Lincoln" in 2012!

What's more, the final shooting of "Knocking on Heaven's Door" is likely to reach $200 million or more...

For Bai Xiaofei, now he can be regarded as completely opening up the situation in North America!

If "The Man on the Moon" can win an Oscar, it will be proper, and it will be directly promoted to a first-line director!

Alejandro González Iñárritu won the Oscar for Best Director, but how many producers would treat him as a first-line director?

No!

Even if "The Revenant" sells for $500 million worldwide, there is still no serious big production in his hands - "The Revenant" invests $1.3 billion, plus publicity, at least 200 million starts, if there is no Xiao Lizi to join, no investor will allow him to squander it like this!

Why?

Hollywood's top 10 directors, their films are entertaining and connoisseurlike, and they combine business and art seamlessly.

Alejandro González Iñárritu's films are too serious and poorly commercial!

Everyone knows that the big hit of "The Revenant" is completely Tofo Leonardo DiCaprio!

A director who only wins awards and is difficult to create economic benefits will not be favored by the studio!

……

Los Angeles, North America.

Xiaobai was a little curious about David Wen.

"Is Lionsgate a giant now?"

"No, our distribution capacity is not enough, we have to rely on Warner Bros. and Universal!"

David shook his head.

"Kung Fu" was released, Lionsgate helped the film win 2,200 hospitals, and "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" was handed over to Universal for distribution, and the latter waved his hand and directly won 3,300 houses...

More than 1,000 directly!

The gap in the number of theaters brings about the gap in the box office!

The giants have a variety of methods to encircle and suppress the new rising companies, and the distribution channel can be said to be one of the simplest, most brutal, most direct and effective ways, just like dealing with DreamWorks in the future, there are not enough distribution channels, and no matter how strong as Spielberg and Jereif Katzenberg can produce high-quality content, they will not be able to save the fate of DreamWorks.

Not to mention that it is a pipe dream to acquire a distribution company and distribute a film on a large scale in North America and around the world!

Lionsgate has been in business for more than 20 years, and its own ability and capital are strong enough, but it still can't do this, which shows how difficult it is to solve the issuance problem...

"How much can the final box office be?"

“… It shouldn't reach 200 million! ”

"Why?"

Xiaobai was very surprised, the reputation of "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" and the favorability of changing it are not bad, why can't it reach 200 million?

David looked at him very strangely: ""Mulan" will be released next week, and "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" will be released at the end of March, you won't know it, right?" ”

“… Disney still wants to face? ”
