Not only Forbidden City Pictures, but also two other companies such as Lotus Pictures have also begun to restart negotiations for new films.

And compared to before, their attitude is getting better and better.

Of course, there is no love for no reason in this world, except for the achievements of everyone working together in the past, it is impossible for these film veterans not to see everything that the name Lao Bai has created in the past nearly two weeks......

Luo Cheng's new album continues to dominate the charts in Europe and the United States, and the box office of Liang Ren's "Sixth Sense" does not fall but rises!

The singer's new album may not be important to them, but "The Sixth Sense" box office is not overlooked - the film has begun to show its power as it enters its second week of release.

The domestic box office was just as predicted, and the leak of the finale on the Internet had a huge impact, especially when more and more viewers began to marvel at the big reversal of the finale, and the box office of "The Sixth Sense" almost fell off a cliff. In the second weekend, it only won 260 million at the box office, a drop of more than 60%. And even if you add the box office of the previous four working days, the total has just exceeded 1.2 billion.

When another Monday came, the box office of "The Sixth Sense" was only more than 30 million.

For Sun Peng, this result is not bad, after all, the box office of his movies was there before, and such a number is definitely not bad. But for Liang Ren, the data of 1.2 billion in ten days is more disappointing. If this trend continues, it is a fool's dream for the box office of "The Sixth Sense" to reach 2 billion, and it will be almost like burning incense to have 1.5 billion.

But overseas, the box office of "The Sixth Sense" was extremely satisfying.

$30 million in the first weekend in North America, $22 million in the second weekend, a drop of less than 30 percent, plus 19 million on four weekdays, the total box office in 10 days has reached $70 million! Europe, Japan and other places saw a slight drop at the box office, but as more countries began to release the new film in the second week, the drop was quite small......

……

"So, the overseas box office is likely to be close to $400 million!"

In the phone call to Sun Peng, Liang Ren's tone became very excited: "It may be worse in China, but now it is almost 200 million US dollars, so the final total box office is likely to be between 650 million and 700 million US dollars, and there should be about 150 million in the United States alone!" ”

"Well, that sounds pretty good!"

Compared with Liang Ren's excitement, Sun Peng's attitude was a little unhappy.

In this way, it is still the box office level of "The Sixth Sense" on the planet!

Sun Peng made another miscalculation, he overestimated the choice of Chinese audiences for movies like "The Sixth Sense", and also overestimated the acceptance of Chinese films in overseas markets...... Or to put it another way, he overestimated Liang Ren's influence and, of course, his own.

In the final analysis, this is a Chinese suspense horror film after all.

Perhaps in the world, Liang Ren is more well-known than Bruce? Willy should be about the same, but the label of Chinese movies is a congenital weakness - even if Liang Ren had the foresight to pull Hollywood Studios into the game, and a large number of white and black actors were used in it, it still couldn't change this label.

So the box office in North America is less than half of that on the planet!

What's more important is that the box office performance of local movies in China is also quite average, at least in Sun Peng's opinion, it is not very good - when he is used to seeing the domestic super blockbuster box office of more than 3 billion or 4 billion, the box office of "The Sixth Sense" is really not very good......

"Nice? Not bad? ”

Liang Renke was a little unhappy with Sun Peng's perfunctory tone, and said loudly: "I said Xiaopeng, are you blinded by "Frozen" and have too much appetite, right?" Is the global box office of six or seven billion dollars still good? You must know that not every movie can have the box office like "Frozen", and how much does "The Sixth Sense" cost to make? Can it compare to that animated blockbuster? ”

"Uh...... Ha ha. ”

After laughing dryly, Sun Peng blinked and stopped talking.

Also, even if it is a Hollywood movie, those non-sequels and non-well-known adaptations, it is a very good achievement to have six or seven billion, not to mention the "Sixth Sense" in this world? If Liang Ren hadn't created a huge reputation in the world with those costume blockbusters, and he wouldn't have made much more concessions than Brother Long on the earth, I'm afraid that tens of millions of dollars overseas would be very good.

And how much is the cost of filming "The Sixth Sense"?

After Rory said a lot, Liang Ren smiled inadvertently: "With such an achievement, we and the Americans have already begun to plan for a sequel...... Xiaopeng, do you have any ideas? ”

"A sequel? "The Sixth Sense"? ”

After being slightly stunned, Sun Peng was suddenly happy.

It seems to be a convention to make a sequel to a box office hit movie this year, after all, with the name of the first episode, the sequel can save a lot of publicity costs, and there are also a large number of fans, so it is not surprising that Liang Ren proposed to make a sequel, but it is ......

The second and third parts of "Bourne's Identity" are originally very good, "Hurricane Rescue 2" and "Hurricane Rescue 3" Sun Peng doesn't like it, and he can take out "True Lies" to make up the numbers.

But Sun Peng really can't think of which sequel to "The Sixth Sense" should be?

So he didn't give Liang Ren too many opportunities at all, Sun Peng directly shook his head and said: "I'm not interested in the sequel, if Brother Liang wants to shoot it, I can sell the copyright!" ”

"Huh? It's true? ”

"Of course it's true, as long as the price is right!"

The movie has been released, and the box office results are still great, and it is the best time to sell the rights. Sun Peng believes that the second sister will definitely be able to sell them at a good price, as for what it will be like to sell the follow-up episodes, it has something to do with him?

So after telling Liang Ren to find the second sister, Sun Peng put the matter aside.

Liang Ren knew that he basically didn't care about these miscellaneous things, and he didn't do much entanglement, so he quickly turned the topic to the new movie, and asked loudly: "Xiaopeng, how did you think about let's cooperate in another movie?" Does the script have eyebrows? ”

"Script? No, I haven't finished my own movie yet, so why don't you have to do this next year? ”

Waving his hand, Sun Peng shook his head without hesitation.

"Uh......"

was stunned by the straightforward words of others, and Liang Ren suddenly smiled bitterly.

Fortunately, Sun Peng also realized that he was speaking too straight, and hurriedly smiled: "But I heard that Brother Liang has already taken on a new film, I'm afraid there won't be much time in the second half of this year, right?" Next year, next year is just right! ”

"Well, that's right."

Taking a deep breath, Liang Ren hurriedly smiled and said, "By the way, there is one more thing, Michael?" Pitt came to Huaxia to promote his "The End of the World", and I was also invited to the premiere, are you interested in meeting him, let's sit down and talk together? ”
