"Eleven million on the first day? The next day the newspaper received 13 million? Sixteen million on Friday? …… A net income of 40 million in three days? Is this how Wall Street plays? ”

When Frank, the head of the project department of Fox Films, saw the report submitted by his subordinates, the twisted facial features had already revealed his helplessness at the moment.

It's different from other movies, what Wednesday premieres, Friday all the way to play, the traditional way of promoting movies on weekends has long been abandoned by truck drivers, Monday premiere, Wednesday 0 o'clock, anyway, occupy the big summer, and I'm not afraid that no one will enter the theater at all!

"Head, the climbing increase on weekdays is the norm for summer movies, although their increase is larger than usual, but the distribution of moviegoers is what gives us a headache......

When Frank stared at the numbers on the front page of the report, as if he was about to completely ignite the amount in his hand with a fierce look, the subordinate who had already seen the high-level data sighed and pushed another piece of information in his hand in front of the other party.

"In addition to the day of the release, the full-time movie-watching crowd is relatively average, the dense movie-watching crowd on Thursday and Friday is all concentrated in the evening, according to the statistics sent by the North American Cinema Alliance, the morning movie box office, accounting for 7% of the day's total, after 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock in the evening, the movie box office is 31 on the day, and the remaining 62 are all from the night."

"According to the age group of moviegoers according to the statistics of the theater chain, the guys who can go to the theater during the day are basically college students who have been on vacation, and there are also guys dressed up as staff, but there are very few, as for children, it is even rarer, but about 60% of the audience who walk into the theater at night are all family units......

Speaking of which, the business department manager who had hoped that the box office of "Terminator 2" would not be a big hit since the first day grinded his teeth, and after a few seconds of muttering, when Frank looked up, he slowly reported the calculation data-

"In other words, out of the total box office of 40 million, 14.88 million is related to Roland Allen - or, under the operation of Ronald Perelman, Roland Allen's fan base can easily see this movie."

Fuck……

When Frank heard the figure of 14,880,000, he opened his mouth and nose with his hands clenched into fists, and opened his mouth, although it was a silent curse, but the shape of his mouth was clearly seen by his subordinates.

Thirty-seven percent of the box office is driven by Roland?

That's a staggering number, isn't it?

Although he understands that this kind of statistics must be full of all kinds of water, because no matter whether it is the North American Theater Alliance or those professional companies that specialize in data analysis, it is impossible to send people to every theater in America to count with their own eyes how many children have walked into the theater.

Moreover, this estimate definitely includes the votes of those parents who bring their children into the theater, as for whether those parents like Roland or "Terminator", this kind of question can never be tangled clearly!

But even if they dehydrate the data and deduct it according to the average population rate of a father with two children, the box office revenue affected by Roland will reach 9.92 million, plus the number of people who enter the theater during the day but are directly ignored by the theater chain and data companies, his box office influence can still climb to seven figures!

Three days, 10 million?

Compared with those movie stars who can easily tens of millions of dollars, this kind of carrying goods is still a little far behind.

Harrison Ford, 10 million a day is easier than eating and drinking.

Clint Eastwood, even though his golden age has faded away with the end of the Dart era, he can still sell 15 million tickets in three days.

Not to mention the cream little raw Tom Cruise, in the garbage book, there is a guarantee if he is there.

But!

Compared to them, Roland Allen's situation is different!

They're all adults!

Their fan base is all mature groups with a certain amount of self-purchasing power!

After seeing that their favorite movie stars have a movie released, the fans of these guys can take out a steel hammer from their wallet and go to the theater to support each other without consulting with others, purely based on their own preferences!

And Roland Allen's fan base is mostly children!

Before there is no economic independence, in the face of no stable source of livelihood, and in the face of the obstruction of R-rated movie viewing rules, this group of children can still contribute 10 million strong purchasing power in three days?

Although it is said that children's money is the best to cheat, "Harry Potter" is to capture a generation of children in order to be invincible in the box office list of film history, so that when "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is released, there will be a bunch of grown up children who pay for their childhood feelings, but-

Compared with that kind of PG-level movie, Roland's harvesting ability in the field of R-rated films is really too special!

A simple conversion of 10 million divided by the ticket price of 4 yuan 9 is equivalent to three days, 2 million children asked their parents to watch R-rated movies, and at least 1.2 million family parents agreed to the children's 'unreasonable' request......

Two million children?

1.2 million households?

What a terrifying set of numbers this special code is!

It is true that Ronald Perelman, in order to make the parents of those children feel at ease to bring their children into the theater, asked Roger Ebert to write a film review that criticized the unscientific classification method of the MPAA; Although Wall Street's M&A gods and the wolf king who adheres to the concept of violent acquisitions let Sony, which has just bought Columbia, let Panasonic, which has acquired MCA but not fully digest it, let Murdoch, an outsider who is tinkering with the Fox TV network, and let Warner and Paramount, whose shares are held by them, all remain silent this summer, for fear that their positive and tough actions will attract a bunch of private equity funds, thus giving adults and children a choice to watch the movie, clearing a path without obstacles, so that "Terminator 2" This movie has become the brightest blockbuster in this year's summer file, but these-

It can only be called a means of customer acquisition!

Even if all the channels are cleaned up by these Wall Street bigwigs, if the children don't like Roland Allen, their parents can't force them to see an R-rated movie!

Regardless of whether it is the fan economy or the benefit of movie stars, it is only if you like it first, you can consume it later!

This is also why movie cafes are inherently superior!

Because it's not the same as endorsement! If people don't like you, they won't go to your movies!

This is not the same as buying an endorsement product!

That's another need to spend money to buy yourself, and watching movies is really satisfying yourself!

As a result, this seven-figure box office gain is a headache!

There are more than two million children who are willing to pay for Roland in the first three days of the film's release?

That's not the number of fans in the Internet age! It's the guy who has already spent it out of his pocket!

Under this kind of data, they Fox ...... How to lower the price?

If Roland was just himself, even if there were the Olson sisters, Fox would dare to lower the price, but in front of the Jewish gang and the group of Wall Street jackals who don't know the depth of the relationship, they Fox ...... That's a fart!

cut most of the 10 million real box office appeal, just to save money by signing a sequel?

Family......

Is it that easy to deceive?

In Hollywood, the ground to the clouds is just the distance of a movie, and a blockbuster movie can make you the brightest star in the night sky, and from the clouds to the ground, it is just a failure.

But—

In the face of having the means to smash the plate, these common senses lose all meaning.

Chuan Jianguo's daughter is a world supermodel, which is true.

But who cares that the biggest sponsor of the event, the number one judge, is her father?

Violent layoffs at the pig farm, kicking out an employee with cancer.

But who knows all this until the parties come forward?

Not to mention that "Terminator 2" enjoys supreme treatment, how can fans who may never know the inside story delve into this? What are the numbers announced by the North American Cinema Alliance, that is, these achievements will only become a strong stroke on Roland Allen's glamorous resume! As for the rest——?

Even if these things break out many years later, it will have no impact on the parties involved.

Many people will even wonder if the so-called truth is embarrassing!

Is it necessary for Cameron, who tinkered with "Titanic" and "Avatar", to fight crazy in 91?

Is it necessary for Schwarzenegger, who has been working hard for his career, to hide all this?

Sony, Panasonic, and News Corp. are outsiders! Warner and Paramount didn't launch new movies that year! Disney, Luen America, and MGM are younger brothers again, is the summer window period abnormal? Because they can't fight at all!

When a person is mythologized, as long as the ass is right, the old accounts cannot pose a threat to them at all.

And now—

These guys have already made way for those financial jackals, and who will expose these things?

The T-800 is invincible! John Connor is handsome and charming! James Cameron has created the best sci-fi action movies for people!

These arguments are the basis of public opinion at present.

Not only that, but the appeal of the tens of millions of box office is also a chasm in front of Fox.

Fox regretted not being able to sign with Roland as soon as possible.

"Forget that!"

Troubled, Frank closed the report in his hand, these things were just a piece of waste paper to him!

What will be the box office of "Terminator 2"?

can dominate the entire summer movie, how bad can it be?

As for how much you can earn in the end?

It has nothing to do with them!

After all, that's an investment of 100 million yuan!

The global box office does not exceed 300 million, that is a net loss!

"Tell me - what is the target price for Roland Allen?"

"Don't tell me any packaging contract, at his age, at most one more "Home Alone", he can't continue, this is a purely commercial film, what 10/10 price, don't even think about it! We're not going to give a box office share! ”

10/10, naturally 10 million box office plus 10% of the North American box office share, if there is no special agreement, the global box office will generally only become the basis for the distribution of box office bonuses, because each country's dividend policy is different, and some places use the way of buying out the copyright for distribution and operation.

But even so, 10/10 is already a long time ago, and the current big names either get paid or get a low salary directly: the former is not confident in his popularity, hoping to get more guaranteed income; And the latter is a real big name, because this approach can not only help film companies reduce costs and make movie shooting smoother, but also the greatest confidence in their own popularity.

If even the actors themselves feel that their ability to attract money is not good, how many film companies dare to pull them to make movies together?

Not to mention that he has advanced and retreated with life and death, and he doesn't even have the confidence to raise the box office, so it's still a fart movie!

However, just when Frank thought that the Jewish gang that eats people and does not spit out bones will help Roland shout a sky-high salary in the name of skyrocketing box office, the subordinate who came to report brought him 'good news'......

"Ever since Roland Allen went to Steven's house and played games with him, Catherine has officially taken over his contract economy business, and I thought they would offer a sky-high price, or a zero pay, but—"

"They didn't do it."

"After yesterday's box office numbers came out, Catherine sent us an email."

"The salary of "Home Alone 2" is still 10 million as mentioned before, but they hope that we can buy the film and television shooting rights of Marvel's Hulk and Iron Man from Universal, and then buy Thor and Team America from Ronald's ......hands."

"The amount of copyright transactions is directly taken from the remuneration, and the transaction taxes generated are also deducted from the remuneration."

"They only have one requirement, these four copyrights must be delivered before the start of filming, and the remaining remuneration can be paid after filming."

What？

What the hell is this special code deal?

When Frank heard that Roland insisted on his unwavering remuneration of tens of millions, he was stunned, but when he heard that the so-called unwavering was to exchange film and television copyrights, countless black lines suddenly appeared on his head.

Film and television shooting copyright, that is the lifeblood of various film companies!

Someone is worried about the film library?

It's worth it!

However, after he thought about it for a while, he suddenly discovered that there was something strange in the whole thing!

Perelman wants to sell the rights to "X-Men" to Fox, but this matter has long been spread in their upper echelons, and everyone knows that this guy wants to raise the stock price through hype, and in this case, Roland, who benefited from him, actually wants to get the Marvel copyright through their Fox?

Isn't this a disguised hint to them to drag them in the calculations of those financial tycoons?

At this time, if they Fox make a purchase offer to Universal and Marvel, it will definitely be hyped by Perelman!

And after the scene warmed up, Cameron and Roland were announcing the news of the establishment of "Spider-Man", that ......

The effect may be better than directly hyping up the news of the project?

After all, compared with Perelman's active promotion, they take the initiative to buy, which is more attractive to investors!

'How could Roland and Perelman be so close?' ’

Over-educated, Frank feels that he has discovered a new world.

But after a second, he directly denied his thoughts-

'Not true! Perelman and Icahn were Jews in the first place! ’

Perhaps this is the conspiracy of the Jews! ’

Wasn't it reported before that Spielberg recommended Roland to "Terminator 2"? In that case, maybe the entire listing hype was already planned as early as last year? ’

The Jewish gang helped Roland get "Terminator 2", and at the same time, Cameron also got Spider-Man through the picture company, and when it was released this year, they cooperated with Marvel to pull up, and when the film companies were not interested in Marvel IP, they took advantage of our eagerness to sign "Home Alone 2" to finalize a deal first! ’

'It's ......'

Frank, who felt that he had seen through everything, almost didn't open his mouth to scold his mother!

It's no wonder that Frank would think so wildly, after all, the Jews are known to the world!

And now, Roland, who is so close to the Jewish Gang, has specially mixed into "Terminator 2", and the doorways in it are even more suspicious!

If all is well, then how do you explain that Roland Allen was chosen as the male lead of Home Alone when John Hughes boycotted the Jewish gang? So how do you explain that Spielberg recommended Roland to participate in "Terminator 2", and at the same time, Cameron won Spider-Man? And now, a year later, Catherine, who is in charge of Roland's contract, wants Fox to buy the Marvel rights first???

If all this is a coincidence, then the special code is too coincidental, right?

If it weren't for the Jews, he Frank would have dared to eat upside down!

And after knowing that everything was a calculated conspiracy, Frank felt that he should stop thinking about other!

Refuse?

Refuse to be a ball!

Not only will he not refuse, but he will report the whole matter immediately!

10 million pay?

To give!

Roland wants copyright?

Buy!

Not only that, but he also felt that since everyone had done this, then "X-Men" should be bought by the way!

We at Fox are just an honest film company!

We really can't afford to play with these things!

More than a year of layout, just to earn a few more small goals?

Even if you are powerful, can't we buy the copyright?

Uncle Roland, please come and sign the contract, right? Let those guys behind you take the magic powers! We can't afford to play this game!
