A week has passed in a blink of an eye, and now the New Year's Eve has come to 2000, and many Hollywood people, many North American people, and even many global fans can't help but pay attention to the box office battle between Yi Feiyang and the Wachowski brothers.

Not surprisingly, in the third week of the box office, "Song and Dance" continued to sit firmly in the first place, with a box office of more than 47.5 million, leading the last week of the Christmas stalls; The hard-pressed "The Matrix" continues to act as a "second master" image, leading the younger brothers below to follow closely.

Up to now, "Dance Floor Battle" has been released for almost 21 days, and the total box office in North America has reached an astonishing 160 million US dollars, according to estimates, after a month of release, the box office will easily exceed 200 million, and at this time, "The Matrix 2" because of the relatively early release time, the total box office in North America has reached more than 300 million, and in the next two months, the global box office will continue to increase, and no one knows how much it will eventually reach.

Therefore, from a macro point of view, "The Matrix 2" has an advantage in accumulating the total global box office, especially Warner Pictures' distribution in overseas markets is greater than that of Dream Pictures, not to mention, American Hollywood science fiction films have always been very popular overseas, and this "Hacker 2" is no exception.

Therefore, although many critics are surprised by the box office of "Dance Floor Competition", but in terms of the total box office comparison, they sing the decline of this drama, but Yi Feiyang has long been unconcerned about this, because for him, his drama has made a lot of money, and he no longer cares about whether he can defeat the pair of bear brothers. Reputation counts as a fart. and it cannot be eaten as food.

Yi Feiyang doesn't care. The fat man Gao Jiabao, the rabbit Bill, the apprentice James Win, and even the unsmiling Dures can't help but care, for them, although honor can't be eaten, it can shine around, including the brothers who stand next to Yi Feiyang......

In fact. At this time, Yi Feiyang is concerned about another topic, that is, "Dance Floor Battle" may be shortlisted for the Oscars!

Yi Feiyang has never been a daydreamer, he has ambitions, but ambitions are very real, even if the ambitions are big, for him, there must be success factors. But he never thought much about the Oscars, because he has been immersed in one thing, making movies. And the purpose of making movies is not to win awards, but to make money!

Right now. The trophy of Oscar, like a coquettish girl, actually waved at him and threw flattery at him, which couldn't help but make him a little itchy, damn, Oscar is too tempting, if you don't get to her, I'm sorry for myself!

Therefore, Yi Feiyang secretly set a goal, not to defeat the Wachowski brothers at the box office, but to aim at the Oscars!

In fact, with the super hot viewing wave of the drama "Dance Floor Battle", the number of hits on Google.com, Angel.com, and the official website of Dream Pictures has been constantly refreshing, almost destroying the company's console.

At the same time, major media in North America are also broadcasting news related to "Dance Floor".

"Hit the Oscars, dance floor competition!" ", "Dance Floor Competition, a must-see movie this Christmas", "Dance for Dreams, Fight for Ideals", "Create Box Office Myths, Dance Floor Glory! Titles like this are all over the place. Every newspaper took this movie as a front-page headline, "Dance Floor Battle" was a great success, so that the media continued to tout, and the excellent quality of the film also attracted the attention of the American Oscar organizing committee, after several rounds of discussion, "Dance Floor Battle" with four nominations, officially announced that it was shortlisted for the Oscars!

Best Photography!

Best Soundtrack!

Best Original Music!

Best Screenplay!

Needless to say, the two most important are the best screenplay and the best original music, and this will be the decisive battle of Yi Feiyang alone. However, this time on the Orcas nomination, there are many masters, not to mention anything else, "The Matrix 2" also won four nominations, namely Best Visual Effects, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, and Best Screenplay; There are also "Miracle on the Green Mile", "American Beauty", and "Notting Hill" have also been nominated for Oscars.

It can be said that the end of February in the next 2000 will be an extremely tragic battle for the Oscars, and its cruelty will definitely not be weaker than the battle for the Christmas box office.

……

2000, 13 February.

In the conference room of the president of Dream Pictures, headed by President Yi Feiyang, Director of Publicity Department Du Lei, Director of Production Department Rabbit Bill, as well as Fat Jack, James Wing and others, all sat in danger, waiting for the great financial director Mr. Gao Jiabao to announce the final box office revenue of Dream Pictures' two dramas "Chainsaw 2" and "Dance Floor Fight", and summarized the company's profitability last year, as well as elaborated on future financial planning goals.

The fat man stood up with the financial statements in his hand, coughed twice, glanced at the crowd with his self-feeling "extremely sharp" gaze, and then began to make a report.

"Hello everyone, dear friends! Thanks to the president Mr. Yi Feiyang, I Gao Jiabao on behalf of the finance department to make a profit report, please listen carefully, if you have any questions, please ask questions after I finish...... In line with the principle of dedication, you will be meticulous and fully responsible in answering your questions...... Well, alright, now the report officially begins-"

The fat man deliberately chewed the words and made an official tone, and then he stepped into the main topic.

According to everyone's understanding of his grinding, I couldn't help but want to spray him for a long time, but when I thought of the importance of this report, everyone approached their mouths, took his nonsense as the wind in their ears, filtered it out directly, and waited for the start of the topic.

"First of all, let me first talk about the horror film "Chainsaw 2" directed by our new director Mr. James Win, thanks to Mr. Yi Feiyang's script writing, this drama is full of abusive violence and alternative script ideas like the previous one, "Chainsaw 2" was released on Halloween at the right time, and greatly satisfied the majority of fans of this type of horror film in the flesh and blood, its opening weekend revenue was 73 percent higher than the previous episode, and it grossed $31.7 million in 2,549 theaters. not only broke the record of the first part, but also changed the history of the box office crash of horror sequels since "Midnight Bell 2" and "Blair the Witch 2". ”

The fat man glanced at everyone with extremely proud eyes, giving people the feeling that this scene was not filmed by James, but the credit of his fat man.

"Okay, let's start to summarize, but since the production cycle of this movie is less than a month, and the cost is only 4 million US dollars, it is inevitable that some places will be suspected of shoddy production. So some viewers reacted, such as after watching the whole film, they couldn't remember what they had seen except for blood. And as soon as the director arrives at the bloodletting clip, he uses a lot of quick editing to make a visual impact to cover up the lack of creative tricks. Therefore, we must learn from this and improve it further! We have to show the service spirit of our Dream Pictures and serve the people wholeheartedly, what they like to watch, what we shoot......"

"All in all, Saw 2 gave fans the perfect Halloween weekend. It also brought me a total box office income of 187 million US dollars, excluding actors' expenses, shooting costs, theater sharing, and damn taxes, etc., we made a profit of 55 million US dollars for this drama, and if we add the sales of CDs at home and abroad, copyright transfer, etc., we made a profit of 78 million US dollars! ”

$78 million!

Everyone swallowed their saliva secretly, my mother, this drama is really amazing, it looks like the dividends are going to increase again, hehe, thank God for giving us such a good big boss.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Yi Feiyang, who was sitting still, as if he was touching his chin and thinking about something.

The fat man saw that the big guy reacted strongly, and smiled one by one, watching his eyes shine...... In fact, the big guy looks at the tall fat man, like he is looking at a golden pig, it is too dazzling!

The fat man raised his chin proudly and continued: "Okay, please be quiet and stop talking, the next thing I will report is about the box office revenue of our boss Mr. Yi Feiyang's filming of the drama "Dance Floor Competition......"

The fat man's voice made everyone quiet down directly, and the guys who couldn't help laughing and talking just now all became good babies.

The fat man clicked his mouth and began to report: "In recent years, song and dance films have been overshadowed in the American film industry, because such films are far from the times, fixed in mode and slow in rhythm, so they have been given a cold reception by many audiences, and even those young audiences no longer like such movies." But in the Christmas file of 1999, a song and dance film swept away the dark clouds of horror for so many years......"

"You must know that the vast majority of song and dance films are nothing more than men and women singing and dancing, and then falling in love with each other, basically selling handsome men and beautiful women, the content is relaxed and cheerful, the ending is full of light, and most films will arrange a dance clip of the hero and heroine pouring out their true feelings at the end. Normally, such a film would be a success if it grosses more than $50 million, but our company's "Dance Floor Fight" surprised connoisseurs, a miracle song and dance film that grossed $320 million in North America! Yes, you heard it right! That's $320 million! ”

Ulla! Everyone screamed.

Excited, excited!

One by one, they are overjoyed!

The fat man hurriedly said: "Please stabilize your emotions, stabilize immediately, because I haven't finished my words yet...... The North American box office is 320 million, and there is also an overseas box office, which is ...... 400 million! "The fat man has exploded another staggering number!

This time the big guys are all crazy!

Yes, all crazy!

400 million!

What a terrifying number?!

Ulla!

This time everyone shouted and applauded wildly!

The whole room is like a psychiatric hospital, and it's full of seriously ill patients! (To be continued......)
