Chapter 376: Let me go back to New York for the Spring Festival
On December 24, 1991, the new Western New Year arrived, and theaters around the world were bombarded by Jim Carrey and Courteney Cox starring (Invincible Lucky Star).
Although this movie was only proposed for filming on November 5th, at that time Jim Carrey was not completely finished in the crew of (Strange Jack in Disguise), but (Invincible Lucky Star) had no special effects, and the story was simple......
The whole process is just to see the comedian's acting power and personal performance.
In less than 40 days, it was completed and put into post-production, publicity? Mainly various TV stations, the program pushes Jim Carrey.
Jim Carrey of this plane has also become popular with the help of a (new love), which represents Xu Jinheng's Aheng's turnaround of the global box office with an investment of 200 million Hong Kong dollars on the surface.
No one said that Ah Heng was a wealthy family, and Jia Ling also became an international actress.
Jim Carrey's popularity in Europe and the United States is also a crazy circle, and Courteney Cox is also one of the heroines of the hit (Friends) in two seasons.
Therefore, the publicity and distribution have been sufficient, and it is impossible to lose money, that is, this Jim Carrey, with comedy performance, before the release of (Strange Masterpiece in Disguise), let a not very exciting (Detective Plane Head) win more than 100 million US dollars at the global box office.
After his hilarious power exploded??
From the 24th to the 29th, in six days of the first weekend, 39 million US dollars were directly bombarded in North America at the box office, and 31 million US dollars in Europa.
The 85-year-old Shao tycoon once again made the Hong Kong Island film industry look sideways, and then ...... Everyone has watched it a few times, and I feel that the script is just like that, not very exciting, no exciting plays, no big special effects.
That's ......
It's completely like a star boy who has swept the world with his personal charm!
Courteney is ecstatic, talking about qualifications, she is a 1986 Asian drama student, and which of the same class Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, and Winona Ryder in the same class is not a superstar? ?
Although she is one of the heroines of the two seasons of (Friends), and the TV industry has become a lot of popularity, there are really not many masterpieces of movies.
(Invincible Lucky Star) is a bit crazy and stupid, laughing at her aunt's route, but it is indeed a super eye-catching resume for her, with this resume, the salary has skyrocketed!
When the time entered 1992, in January, the number of cinemas in the mainland and Hong Kong Hao Wan was already overflowing.
For example, on Hong Kong Island, even if a movie starts with 20% of the film schedule, the daily box office is close to 2.6 million Hong Kong dollars, so blockbusters such as (Dragons and Phoenixes) (Taiping Wheel) (Ah Lang's Story) (Divine Calculation) all start from 30% of the film schedule, and they will be launched one after another at an interval of one week.
At its peak, a six-hall theater was showing five different blockbusters at the same time.
This belongs to the New Year stalls before the Spring Festival, and the official war is flying.
………………
Huayuan Phase I.
When Winona Ryder entered the community in the nanny car, she quickly got out of the car, breathed in the fresh air and ran back to Building 3.
Hollywood filmed for a few months (nuns are also crazy), which really made her uncomfortable, for example, some people who wanted to pursue her, even the Pan Asian bodyguards were absolutely reliable, which also caused her a certain amount of annoyance.
There are also some bigwigs who want to uncover her? is even more outrageous, it is still done by the pan-Asian bodyguards.
There was no accident, but compared with the relaxed and safe environment during the filming life on Hong Kong Island, she is no longer suitable for life in Hollywood.
On the other hand, all kinds of gossip magazines, countless newspapers, casually chase the wind and report her scandals, and many times it is still a picture at the beginning, and the content is all guided by the editor's public opinion.
It made her uncomfortable to the point of physical and mental explosion.
Although it is said that when she went to shoot (Spider-Man 1) before, she was also popular, but compared to (Spider-Man 1), after achieving a box office of more than 800 million US dollars worldwide, it was completely two eras.
When she arrived at the door, she walked all the way without encountering any harassment or obstruction, Winona still complained happily, "It's still a stable and comfortable ...... in the first phase of Huayuan."
At this moment, a figure came out of Building 3, it was Courteney Cox, and her eyes lit up when she saw Winona, "Winona? Ha, long time no see, by the way, (Spider-Man 2) is about to boot up, right? I really envy you, it's time to use the second part to brush up on influence. ”
Winona was stunned, extremely speechless, "Why do I feel a little bit like good news?" ”
If you want to shoot Spider-Man 2, don't you have to go to North America, Hollywood or New York to shoot??
Courtney said in surprise, "What's wrong?" What's wrong with you over there? ”
Winona complained with a wry smile, "Don't talk about the rest, it's not a big deal, but those unscrupulous media paparazzi, it's so hateful, I just had a dinner with many actors in the crew, and then I was hacked into a relationship with someone." ”
"I made it clear that I didn't have a relationship, and that group of people on the street actually said that I discriminated against black actors...... It also caused many people to surround me in protest. ”
"I once again publicly clarified that I got closer to some of the actresses in the crew and reported that I liked the same sex...... Nightmare-like. ”
"When I go out on Hong Kong Island, even if I am recognized in public, at most three bodyguards can maintain order, and when the police come to help, there are less than eight people around me over there, and I don't dare to go out shopping."
Courtney, "......"
She can't fix it, is this the price of fame? It seems to be mixed around Hong Kong Island, and there are not so many messy things.
The more serious gossip is nothing more than the former Wu Zhenyu's behind-the-scenes cooking, and after Li Lianjie (Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng) was released, he was sung by the media and said that Ajie hit the street, and he had no box office appeal, and was about to be eliminated by fans and fans......
What happened to Winona over there!
After being stunned for a while, she also smiled bitterly, "On December 24, 1990, (Spider-Man 1) was released worldwide, this is January 3, 1992, and the preliminary preparations for the second part, various model production, must have been arranged." ”
"It's the third part of Wanted, and it can also start filming, I heard that (Jurassic Park 3) will also start filming after the Spring Festival."
"At the beginning of 1992, three super special effects movies started at the same time, even if they were all at the end of 92 or the beginning of 93 when they were released, it was also a super audio-visual lineup."
Winona's head was big for a while, "I'm numb, wait, I'm going to beg Ah Xin, let her help me beg the boss, let me spend the Spring Festival on Hong Kong Island and then go back to New York." ”
"Let's take a break for a month, it's a big deal to shoot other people's scenes first."
When she greeted and ran into the building, Courteney Cox was also numb, you are a beautiful white girl from my sister's family, and you have a ghost Chinese New Year??
………………
February 4th, the first day of the Lunar New Year.
has been released worldwide for more than a month, Europa and North America have cut down 190 million US dollars at the box office (Invincible Lucky Star) one after another, plus the data of East Asia and Southeast Asia, this comedy movie starring Jim Carrey has a global performance of 270 million US dollars.
Jim Carrey's salary has risen from the previous Hollywood Film and Television Group, which spent 5 million US dollars to invite him to film, to 7 million US dollars.
And then......
(Strange Masterpiece in Disguise) was released on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
In the six days from the fourth to the ninth, the box office in North America was once again 41 million US dollars, and Europa was 33 million US dollars, which was stronger than (Invincible Lucky Star).
Don't forget that the lucky star is the Christmas and New Year's Day schedules, which is the annual holiday of mainstream Western countries, and February 4th to 9th is the Spring Festival holiday for Chinese, but Europe and the United States basically go to work.
At the end of the week's performance, Jim Carrey's salary rose from 7 million US dollars to 10 million US dollars again! The giants on the Hollywood side really hated it and stomped their feet and regretted it, if they could get a few film contracts before these two movies?
It's really going to make a lot of money.
It was in this situation that Zhao Donghuai said to Xiao Xian, "Arrange it, the VCD machine and disc system will be launched in Wanjia supermarket." ”
Wang Zuxian hesitated, "Really?" Hong Kong Island 3000 Hong Kong dollars a machine, which is twice or more cheaper than a video recorder and laser disc player, and 20 Hong Kong dollars a disc. More than 15 times cheaper than a laser disc......"
"It's on, the impact is coming, and it's hard to take it back?"
Zhao Donghuai laughed, "Science and technology are developing, the times are advancing, you can't stand in everyone's way, just like pharmaceutical giants control all kinds of serious diseases and diseases that are taken for life, it doesn't mean that there is really no cure." ”
"You don't go up, some people will meet, or don't be a dragon."
Stories of dragon-slaying boys eventually becoming evil dragons abound, but here, Zhao Donghuai is not so obscene, and another reason, VCD machine and disc production technology is also opening up a new cash river for him, Monica Bellucci, and Jennifer Connelly!
Xiao Xian nodded, and then excitedly pulled Li Jiaxin and said, "Let's go, let's arrange for someone to go down and make detailed statistics on which movies have been hit at the box office after the Lunar New Year." ”
"This is to open a new era in the film and television industry!"
Li Jiaxin nodded, "I'm also quite curious, but as long as the source of the film is controlled, the probability of the impact on the box office of blockbusters is not very large, and those bad movies and movies with aesthetic fatigue will be seriously affected." ”
With the development of science and technology and the progress of the times, the Hong Kong Hao bend disc is 20 Hong Kong dollars a piece, the island, South Korea and Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand are 30 Hong Kong dollars a piece, and the mainland is tentatively 15 yuan.
Price of this magnitude??
It depends on the war with the pirates, and at this price, piracy is very competitive.
How to say this kind of price, if you buy it alone, you will feel expensive and inappropriate, but the video halls that were not too many in the past will bloom tenfold, fifteen, and twenty times.
There are video halls everywhere, and you can watch seven or eight movies all night for a few dollars...... This is the real impact, the blockbuster super blockbuster, the disc came out late, and I couldn't wait to watch it after the release.
But movies such as (Tai Chi Zhang Sanfeng) (New Bi Blood Sword) (Tianlong Babu's Tianshan Tong Ma) are miserable......
When you released it yourself, because there were too many films of the same type in the previous work, you were too lazy to spend money to watch it, and you just need to watch it when you send a video tape later, and then the video hall will expand tenfold and twenty times??
What is killed is the living space of those similar films, not very brilliant, and really bad movies.
………………
February 13, the tenth day of the first lunar month.
When the pony arrived at a certain crew in a car, he smiled when he went in and greeted people one by one, the main creative team of (a comic book to the end of the world), they have also cooperated for nearly two months, that is, they will go back to their hometown for a few days off during the Spring Festival.
The reunion after the holiday is not far from the finale period.
When Xiaoma said hello to the beautiful girl Bai Annie, walked to the area surrounded by Lin Junxian, Cheng Kuian and others, and said with a smile, "Brother Xian, Brother An, what are you doing here?" Watching a videotape? ”
"Huh...... It's not a VCR. ”
Lin Junxian smiled and said, "It's a Pacific VCD player and VCD disc, good guy, a finished videotape costs more than 100 Hong Kong dollars, and now there are only 20 VCD discs, which is more than five times cheaper at once." ”
"Xiaoma, we are all insiders, you are still a top student, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing for us filmmakers and the income from the video tape after the movie is released?"
"Even the VCD machine is half cheaper, from five or six thousand to 3,000 yuan per unit."
"It was just launched on the eighth day of the first lunar month, and today is only the tenth day of the first month, and I heard that more than 5,000 machines have been sold on Hong Kong Island in two days, and all kinds of video discs are also selling well."
Cheng Kuian walked over, squeezed his eyebrows and said, "Do you know what disc sells the most?" I heard that Director Mai was made by Brother Mai Juejie (what kind of futon), and the movie only won more than 18 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office when it was released at the Golden Princess. ”
"But on the eighth and ninth days of the Lunar New Year, the Pacific VCD chain sold 100,000 discs! 2 million Hong Kong dollars in sales! , there are so many people on our Hong Kong Island watching the big album? ”
Lin Junxian also sighed, and he had a feeling that he didn't know what to say.
Wait for Liang Jiaren to come...... Just as he was about to ask everyone what they were busy with, Xiaoma suddenly slapped his head, "Director, I want to continue to take a few days off today, mainly because there was a sudden accident at home, sorry, really sorry." ”
Leung Ka Yan, "......"
Lao Liang was silent for a few seconds, "A few days, please?" ”
The pony said quickly, "It must arrive after the Lantern Festival." ”
Liang Jiaren suddenly said, "No problem, you can just make a phone call if you have something at home, why bother to come again?" We're all old acquaintances, too. ”
In the previous part (Descendants of the Dragon) and this one (a comic book to the end of the world), Liang Jiaren also had a lot of rivalry with Pony.
Pony quickly thanked him, apologized to his other partners one by one, and ran away.
Before he was on vacation at home, he really didn't pay attention to this point, he was sure that the people who bought so many DVD players and discs were definitely the ones who opened the video hall, and those were not bad for money? Just buy and play for yourself, just a few wealthy families or rich second or third generations.
He wants to go back immediately to see how the video hall market in Pengcheng is doing...... Okay, the hundreds of thousands of dollars that were originally planned to buy a house were invested in the video hall market first.
This wave of blood earnings!
Not only Pengcheng, but he is not unable to try to go to other parts of Guangdong Province outside Pengcheng, it is nothing more than that his family has more connections in Pengcheng at most, and it is easy to do things.
If it is only opened in Pengcheng, it will become a hands-off shopkeeper, and the daily business is not so busy.
………………
On February 17, tomorrow will be the Lantern Festival.
The festive atmosphere on Hong Kong Island is still strong, Li Jiaxin stood in Tsim Sha Tsui Wanjia Cinema Line, walked around with a hat, sunglasses and mask, and walked up to the manager's office on the fifth floor.
At this moment, in this office, the manager of the branch of Wanjia supermarket is already waiting for the wage earner mode, Wang Zuxian is curious, "How is it?" That detective Ma Rulong? ”
Ah Xin shrugged, "It's miserable, 20% of the film volume, I just went to see a few halls, and the attendance rate was less than 30%, and it was already afternoon." ”
Waiting for Xiaoxian to look at the theater manager, the other party smiled bitterly, "Now the main force to capture the box office is still (Strange Masterpiece in disguise), it has only been released for two weeks, Detective Ma Rulong has been released for seven days, and the box office on Hong Kong Island is only 2.1 million Hong Kong dollars." ”
Detective Ma Rulong's lineup is actually not bad, Zheng Danrui, Xiao Yingying, Liang Jiahui, Li Zhi, the four leading actors, as well as Liu Songren, Li Zixiong and so on.
2.1 million Hong Kong dollars in seven days?? The director is Chen Jiashang, a 100-year-old film general!
If it weren't for the time of Liang Jiahui, he would have finished filming last year, but Ah Hui took it first (91 Black Rose to Black Rose), and only went to shoot Ma Rulong after filming.
Li Jiaxin said speechlessly, "Cut it into 10% of the films, let's release a new film." ”
The theater manager was curious, "Which one is on?" ”
Ah Xin thought for a while, "Shang Ah Fa and Liu Jialing starred in that (I love twisted chai)." ”
The box office was so dismal after the release of Detective Ma Rulong, which also has a lot to do with the film criticism, and the first group of people to see the movie have publicly named this as a bad movie......
The role played by the actor obviously wants to be in the same comedy style as Xing Ye, but he played a bad role that is easy for people to look obscene and obscene, completely wasting the appearance of beautiful girls like Xiao Yingying and Li Zhi, and also wasting Leung Jiahui's valuable performance.
The actor was too a failure and ruined the movie.
It's not a film critic who says that, it's a lot of people who say that in a number of different newspapers, bad reviews plus a sudden attack of VCD players and VCD discs.
In just a few days, the number of video halls on Hong Kong Island has doubled, and it is still developing towards more, and many fans have found that you go to the video hall to watch movies...... The new ones are much cheaper than the old ones.
………………
March 6th.
ATV office.
Zhao Donghuai took the investigation report sent by Li Jiaxin and Xiaoxian, and immediately smiled, "It's okay, it's doing well, Ah Fa's (I love twisted chai), the Lantern Festival has been 17 days now, and the box office is 23 million Hong Kong dollars?" ”
"Because the media film critics have a good evaluation of this New Territories local love movie, the box office seems to have not been affected much."
"(Detective Ma Rulong) and (Four Detectives) are such bad movies, the former is only 3.2 million Hong Kong dollars until it is lowered? The four detectives who were released for a week also took more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars? ”
These are still movies that Zhao Donghuai has an impression of.
Let's just say that (Detective Ma Rulong) The original trajectory was more than 8 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office on Hong Kong Island, and now more than 3 million will be over.
The original trajectory of the four detectives was more than 13 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, and it exploded by more than 4 million in a week? It is estimated that you can get more than 10 million in the lower gear, and the loss is not much.
Ah Fa's (I love twisted chai), 23 million in 17 days, not too far from the original trajectory of 30 million record.
As with the estimated form, this round of VCD and disc impact, of course, has an impact, but it has a limited impact on blockbusters and movies with good film reviews, and it is less than one or two percent or two or three percent of the box office.
But the discs sold quickly, which means that the profits of the tapes were settled in advance.
In the past, there were more than 100 video tapes and more than 300 laser discs, how could too many people afford to buy them at will? Now such as (what kind of futon) movies, continue to the present, Hong Kong Hao Wan, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand and South Korea, island countries, because of the existence of retail terminals......
In more than 20 days of retail statistics, more than 300,000 tickets have been sold, which is equivalent to more than 8 million Hong Kong dollars!
It's less than a month!! If you can sell nearly 10 million Hong Kong dollars a month? His total box office on Hong Kong Island is only 18 million, and as time continues, this is several times faster than the original videotape and laser video.
After all, Hong Kong Hao Wan is 20 Hong Kong dollars a disc, and Xingma, Taihe and Island and South Korea are 30 Hong Kong dollars a disc, and the total data will be more comprehensive.
Ah Xin was curious, "This is just the beginning, right?" The big impact depends on the business war of the pirated discs in the back, if it can't be beaten, it will die faster for those less eye-catching genre films or bad movies in the future. ”
Zhao Donghuai nodded, "Ganghao Bend is the same law as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and South Korea, and it is different ......from the mainland."
So far in the mainland, (Detective Ma Rulong) is also a bad movie, with more than a week of painting, with a box office of more than 50 million yuan...... The four detectives took down more than 40 million yuan in the last week.
It belongs to the project that you have been screening for a long time, and even though it is a bad movie, you can still make a lot of money.
Obviously, compared with a 15-yuan movie ticket and a two-yuan movie ticket, the movie ticket is still full of attractiveness.
In the next few months, or even more than half a year to a year, we can see enough results!
It is appropriate for bad movies to be impacted, and they should be finished early, but Zhao Donghuai still earns the most and the most.
The retail price in the mainland is 5 yuan, and the retail price is 15 yuan, video halls are blooming everywhere, and the first few waves are all genuine videotapes.
Many VCD discs of old films are sold like cooking oil on fire, after all, if you open a video hall, you can't just put a few discs, right??
On April 1, the world successively painted (Strange Heroes in Disguise), and finally the world bombarded down 367 million US dollars, which was higher than the original 1994 version, because the film won 760 million yuan at the box office in the mainland.
At this stage, the island country does not need to sell ports, and the Wanjia cinema chain lasts for a month or two, and the island country will collect more than 95 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office, which is much higher than South Korea's 72 million.
In the box office explosions one after another, Jim Carrey took off on a rocket, and even more than a month after the screening, the DVD (Strange Jack in Disguise) appeared on the market, and the genuine version sold well...... A lot of people who didn't go to the cinema to watch a movie went to the theater after watching the disc.
is still the same sentence, the viewing experience of the small screen 480p, and the poor viewing quality of the cinema line equivalent to 4K HD, the difference is really big.
……………………
April 1st.
Shi Kip Wei had good luck to come to the private room, Li Xiuxian laughed and raised his glass, "Pony, I respect you, after eating, let's go to the night market in East Tsim Sha Tsui East, don't get drunk and don't return!" ”
"All the costs I have covered!"
(A comic book to the end of the world) the kind of small production, easy to make a movie, it was completed in early March, and it was scheduled to be released on March 26, and today it has completed the five-day process.
In five days, Hong Kong Island was more than 3 million Hong Kong dollars, and more than 4 million Hong Kong dollars were saved.
But this movie exploded in the mainland, and the data of more than 70 million yuan in five days can still make Li Xiuxian ...... No, it's more than (the descendants of the dragon).
The renminbi in the mainland is also money!
Moreover, Island, South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand, the five countries together also have a box office of more than 13 million Hong Kong dollars, or to calculate the production fee, it has already exploded in the first five days!
Li Xiuxian already plans to send another 200,000 red envelopes to Xiaoma.
Pony smiled and raised his glass, taking a sip, "Thank you Director Li, it's really a pleasure for us to work together." ”
Pony's later generations are also famous for his large amount of alcohol, drinking all over the Internet bigwig circle, and the movie has made money very quickly, and in the past two months, the chain video hall he opened in Pengcheng has also made money.
There is one thing to say, according to the original trajectory of Hong Kong Film...... The impact of VCD players and DVDs, this is still no piracy, dare to come out of an era of hammering to death, (Detective Ma Rulong) (Pony version of a comic book to the end of the world) and other movies, such a Hong Kong Island box office performance.
The box office is not as high as the salary of actors and stars.
It's the dead stuff that's getting more and more thorough.
This plane star Ma Tai, Island and Han plus Wan Province have all become box office warehouses, the integration of theaters, and the large box office in the mainland, which has made filmmakers feel strong changes in the past few months, but compared with the whole, it is still not much affected.
If piracy is not controlled, it will be much worse.
For example, Fei Jing, Hua Zai and others don't make bad movies, and a large number of employees can't afford to eat.
……………………
In an office building in Yau Ma Tei, when Li Jia's Akai hurriedly rushed into a certain company and knocked on a certain door, a moment later, Lao Wu of the Bamboo Society opened the door.
Akai was a little anxious, "Is the Thorn Tomb finished film?" ”
Lao Wu nodded, "Don't worry, Kai Shao, I just watched the movie twice, and the special effects are still very impressive, and this movie should sell well." ”
Akai wanted to cry without tears, "Why didn't you release it in the Chinese New Year?" If it was released a year ago, without VCD players and VCD DVDs, the same movie would make at least a few million more in a region, or even one or two million. ”
"If it's a bad movie, it's even more terrifying."
The impact of the new technology of the times has just emerged, and many filmmakers who have watched it are dumbfounded, Chen Jiashang, who has filmed a film (Detective Ma Rulong), has a box office of more than 3 million in Hong Kong, which is really ......
If he wasn't the director of a hundred years of films, a Xiao Yingying's salary would be more than 3 million, okay? How to talk about the salaries of Leung Jiahui and Li Zhi? You invite Liu Songren and Li Zixiong, both of whom will spend millions.
Director Chen of the 100-year film industry perfectly showed how he could make a project with tens of millions of losses if he was an external company.
Zheng Danrui, the male protagonist of the movie, was blacklisted by many directors all of a sudden.
However, the stock price of Centennial Pictures has not been affected by this bad movie, everyone knows that the core creative team of Centennial Pictures is Zhou Xingxing, Wang Jing, Liu Dehua, and Chen Jiashang is a less important role.
This kind of thing makes Akai sit on pins and needles, and he is also afraid of the loss of the box office of the Thorn Tomb, after all, in this project, the Li family accounts for 50% of the shares.
Lao Wu of the Bamboo Society was speechless, "I also want to release the New Year's file, but for this kind of thing, do you know how to make special effects in supercomputing?" ”
Akai, "......"
Akai smoked a cigarette and lit it, and then said with red eyes, "(Taiping Wheel) are all in January, and they have made a lot of money, Wang Yu, Ke Junxiong and Xiang Lao Shi have made a lot of money." ”
The (Taiping Wheel) released in the middle of Jim Carrey's two big movies is indeed a big profit, from the release to the next painting, the box office of Hong Kong Island is more than 26 million Hong Kong dollars, the province is 19 million Hong Kong dollars, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand are 41 million Hong Kong dollars, the island country is 35 million, and South Korea is 41 million.
These are equal to HK$162 million.
The key is that the mainland is strong, with a total of 490 million yuan.
One or two hundred million investment, Bo came out with such an ending?? Xiang Lao Shi couldn't stop smiling, after all, the model of the Taiping Wheel, the custom-made Taiping Wheel, and the Jianyuan Wheel were repaired......
In fact, it is equivalent to the Li family paying 38 million to help them repair.
38 million can do a lot!
Without Johnny Depp and Jennifer Aniston, the cost of remuneration has been reduced several times.
Zhou Runfa is 10 million Hong Kong dollars, Liu Xiaoli is 5 million, Bingbing is 300,000, and Yuan Yuan is 50,000.
After the release of Bend Province, the total population is more than double that of Hong Kong Island, and the box office is so much less, which is enough to witness that he is not very popular in Bend, and there is a lot of scolding, but the big brother of the Bamboo Society is afraid that you will scold them?
This disaster movie doesn't make much money in Xingmatai, Island, and South Korea.
Strictly speaking, the total accumulation of Hong Kong Hao Wan and Singapore, Matai Island and South Korea is only 162 million. Liu Dehua's big action movie (big event), a single film can break 100 million Hong Kong dollars in South Korea and Thailand, or even 200 million Hong Kong dollars.
In Europe and the United States, (Taiping Wheel) also saved more than 20 million US dollars, but 5 million dollars were smashed in the announcement...... Basically, it is a small profit after returning to the capital.
It took more than a year to get a film, and the money was not particularly much, but it must not be said that it was too little, for a group of people who saved the bureau of that project, they experienced the impact of the Wu Yusen incident, and they were happy to be able to return to their original costs.
After being busy for more than a year, Xiang Laoshi and others gave Zhao Donghuai sixty percent of the profits, and the profits were shared in their respective hands, at least thirty or forty million Hong Kong dollars or RMB profits, and the three of them each earned thirty or forty million, what else do you need?
This still refers to paying sixty percent of the protection fee, and if you don't pay the protection fee, each family can theoretically earn eighty or ninety million!
Akai sighed again at this moment, "If (Taiping Wheel) is released during this time period, there will be no profit of nearly 100 million per family." ”
Akai didn't know that Xiang Lao Shi and they started from (crazy Givenchy/big shot), and the blockbuster would pay sixty percent of the protection fee to Zhao Donghuai.
He was just watching from the sidelines, ostensibly looking at the total box office data of various places. But in fact, in Europe and the United States (Liwang), the protection fee of the Bamboo Society has not been paid less, otherwise without Zhao Donghuai's support, who in their Bamboo Club can level the theater line? ? Who can make the cinema chain transfer and settle you in time?
Without Zhao Donghuai, they wouldn't even be able to publicize it.
Under the words, Lao Wu smiled and waved his hand, "Kai Shao, don't worry, the situation is like this now, we plan to make a publicity of 15 million US dollars in Europe and the United States, which is also 117 million Hong Kong dollars, and the promotion in Asia will be calculated according to more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars, are you continuing to invest?" Take half of it out and publicize it. ”
"Or do you want to lower the share proportionally??"
Akai took a long breath, "And then take 75 million Hong Kong dollars to publicize?" You are crazy? ”
Lao Wu waved his hand, "The total investment before the project is calculated at 300 million, plus 150 million publicity, which is 450 million, and only when you do a good job can you return to your capital and make money." ”
"Are you still following? If you don't follow that 50% investment, it will slip down to 33%. ”
