At the same time as Zhang Huaimou and Zhang Jun made a decision.

On the other hand, the rest of the major cinemas in China are also in full swing to meet and study.

Which movie to invest in to maximize the benefits.

After all, this is an overseas movie, and if it is introduced to China, it is still necessary to take into account the preferences of the local market.

Of course, movies with Chinese actors are preferred.

It's just that there is competition and opposition between Spider-Man and Shadow Man.

Many people still know this, after all, Su Mu has fought with Nas many times.

So it is conceivable that if it is released in China in the future, there will inevitably be a big war.

Ole Film and Television Building.

At this time, Wang Taiming was holding his mobile phone and typing in WeChat.

He didn't listen to the suggestions made by the senior management of the conference room.

To be honest, no matter what kind of technical analysis is done at such a time, it will not help.

If the data is really so useful, then the overseas movies he introduced a few years ago would not have been lost in the sea, and he was even beaten by Su Mu's online movie once.

So sometimes, being able to see the trend and follow the trend is much stronger than those professional data.

Basically, there won't be much of a mistake.

This is also the truth that Wang Taiming realized after he met Su Mu.

At this time, he was asking Zhang Jun in the WeChat of his mobile phone.

He wanted to know how Huayi made his choice.

In fact, since the beginning of investing in the Wandering Earth, Ole has basically stood on the same front as Huayi.

Wang Taiming felt that he might be able to follow in their footsteps and save his brains.

Soon a reply came from the phone.

[Zhang Jun: Mr. Wang, do you still need to ask?] We will definitely choose Su Mu's 'Spider-Man', of course, we can't rule out the possibility that several other movies will have a super high box office, but our budget should only be enough to buy two movies, and there are not many choices, as for Shadow Man... Because it's Nas's investment, we won't touch it for the time being, and the other one may buy a 'super cop'. ]

Looking at Zhang Jun's reply.

Wang Taiming hesitated.

Then he took out his phone again and quickly replied.

[Wang Taiming: Mr. Zhang, in fact, I am also a little hesitant, mainly Nas's side, who came to me a few days ago and wanted Ole to talk about Shadow Man, and they are ready to give me a low price.

I'm also in contact with Wanmeng, Golden Harvest and Newman Pictures, and their first choice is Shadow Man, and as for Sue's side, they may have to play the same old ways. ]

[Zhang Jun: I know what you mean, let them go, it's not that I haven't experienced it, anyway, our side has already made a decision, priority Spider-Man.] ]

Looking at Zhang Jun's reply, Wang Taiming was a little helpless.

From a rational point of view, in fact, this time it should indeed be biased towards the Shadow Man.

After all, in addition to Nas, there are also more theaters in China behind him.

Although Su Mu was able to make the Wandering Earth achieve unexpected box office results in China before.

But this time is different, as a Chinese actor, I went overseas, and if I want to reproduce the domestic influence to the European and American markets, it will definitely not work.

If it is still a domestic movie in China this time, then Su Mu will not have any risks.

But in a place like Hollywood, the water is too deep and there are too many superstars.

Su Mu's current level does not have the ability to cross so far to drive the box office market over there.

If Spider-Man doesn't get good results at the box office in the United States.

When the time comes, it will be released in China, and it is likely to have an impact.

This is all his experience in the past.

Therefore, Wang Taiming is still a little worried at this time, and the variables in this are still relatively large.

As a friend, he supported Sumu.

However, he is also the CEO of Ole, so there is too much to consider.

I thought about it for a long time.

Wang Taiming still decided to go to other theater lines again.

At the moment, Wanmeng Cinemas, Newman Films, and Golden Harvest Cinemas are all on Nas's side.

So there's no need to ask.

The only thing that can be discussed now, apart from Zhang Jun, should be 'Jingsheng Oriental'.

When Su Mu released The Wandering Earth, Jingsheng Dongfang was the first to jump ship from Nass to fight against the water.

Unlike several other cinema chains, Jingsheng Oriental is a locally invested enterprise and has no foreign capital penetration.

So a lot of times, it's still more free to make decisions.

While thinking, Wang Taiming took the mobile phone and found the phone number of the boss of Jingsheng Oriental.

Then I dialed it directly.

…

Jingcheng City, Jingsheng Oriental Headquarters.

At this time, in the reception room, a middle-aged man with a rich body was warmly receiving two people.

If Wang Taiming is here, he will definitely recognize it.

These two people are the boss of Fengjun Media, Huang Wenshan, and his number one artist, Lin Haoming.

Huang Wenshan knew the boss of Jingsheng Oriental a long time ago.

The two of them got together because of their common hobbies, and they both like to learn some predictions and the like, and they believe in these.

So since Huang Wenshan calculated it for him that time, the boss of Jingsheng Oriental would ask Huang Wenshan whenever he had something.

At this moment, the voice of the phone rang.

The man took out his mobile phone and looked at it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he did not pick up the phone immediately, but turned his head to look at Huang Wenshan on the sofa opposite.

opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Huang, you see, Mr. Wang of Ole called me, presumably it is also for me to ask you today." ”

Huang Wenshan smiled after hearing this, didn't say anything, and stretched out his hand to signal that he could answer the phone first.

The man clicked on the answer, and Wang Taiming's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Mr. Jing, long time no see."

"Ouch, isn't this Mr. Wang, why did you call me at this time?"

On the phone, Wang Taiming didn't talk nonsense, and went straight to the point.

"There's nothing else to do, I just want to call you and ask, how did you decide to buy the copyright of this overseas movie in this schedule? Which ones to buy? ”

"Oh, I think it's not bad, but we should only buy two or three of them."

Wang Taiming: "Actually, I'm also here for this, I want to see your opinions, Spider-Man was shot by Su Mu, and Shadow Man has a lot of publicity and background, including several other films are also good, so I'm still a little entangled now." ”

"Hey, there's nothing to worry about, just choose Su Mu's movie, and besides, you have already had a cooperative relationship before, so this time it should naturally be full support." ”

Wang Taiming was stunned: "Mr. Jing, are you so sure?" Are you going to find someone to count on again? So you mean, Jingsheng Oriental decided to buy Spider-Man? ”

"Of course."

"Okay, I see."

The chat ends and the phone hangs up.

The boss of Jingsheng Oriental put down his mobile phone and looked at Huang Wenshan on the opposite side again: "Mr. Huang, I still listen to you this time, it shouldn't be wrong, right?" ”

Huang Wenshan laughed very deeply: "Just like I calculated for you before, your Jingsheng Dongfang and Su Mu's Five Elements Feng Shui are originally very compatible, so as long as you follow the direction of Su Mu in the future, it shouldn't be a big problem."

And this time, I also deliberately gave the movie "Spider-Man" a plate. ”

When the man heard this, his eyes lit up, as if he had talked about a topic he liked.

"Mr. Huang, you also deliberately gave this movie a plate? The result? ”

Huang Wenshan's face was serious, and then he pointed to it and said: "Su Mu is a fierce dragon crossing the river, it should be a hidden dragon in the abyss in the early stage, but the hexagram is a bit variable, Qiangua, Yuan Heng Litong, Ninety-Five, the flying dragon is in the sky." ”

Mr. Jing: "??? ”

Lin Haoming: "......"

Huang Wenshan: "The simple interpretation of the hexagram is actually ... It's like taking off, although Spider-Man's voice doesn't seem to be high abroad, but I think it may not be impossible to flip. ”

Mr. Jing: "Okay! I get it! Jingsheng Oriental also has theaters abroad, and I will notify you in a moment to fill up Spider-Man~! ”

Lin Haoming: "......"

Huang Wenshan: "......"

…

The major cinemas in China are ready.

In just a few days, they all began to promote and market the overseas movies they bought.

Domestically, the demand for Sumu is still very high.

After all, he is the absolute top class now.

On the U.S. side, it's a little different.

Relatively speaking, Spider-Man's publicity and coverage area can only be said to be decent.

If you want to say that the propaganda has an overwhelming feeling, 'Visitors from the Star Sea' is the first, followed by 'Shadow Man'.

However, it has not been officially released yet.

So many people also understand that the high prestige before watching does not mean everything.

In previous years, it was not without a plummeting after watching.

Therefore, the final word-of-mouth and box office can only be determined by the content.

…

…

End of May.

It's finally the golden cycle of movie releases.

During this time,

The film and television gossip of the United States has been exploded by netizens.

Someone actually pulled out the matter between Su Mu and Nas.

even followed the vine and analyzed that Su Mu came to play Spider-Man just to talk to the Shadow Man next door.

I can't say that all of them are right, but some of them are really guessed correctly.

It can only be said that these media in the United States are really good at collecting information.

[Nas had a few collisions with that Su Mu in Huaxia, and now Nas has invested in Shadow Man, which means that there will be a battle between them and Spider-Man!] Exciting! Fight from Asia to Europe! Hahaha! ]

[To be honest, looking at the names of these two movies, I don't think there should be much hope for Spider-Man, everyone is a relatively cool 'Shadow', 'Super Police', and 'Extra-Star', but this spider always feels a bit nondescript. ]

[I don't think the spider's ability can be good, but the movie of Shadow Man, it should be very exciting and refreshing to hear the name, but now the highest demand should be the guest from the sea of stars, right?] I feel that the background of the world should still be very large, and I don't know if I can shoot that magnificent effect. ]

On the Internet, everyone is discussing.

has not yet been released, and they have all given reviews.

And I'm very happy to see this excitement.

…

A hotel.

Zhai Hong, who did not return to China, once again opened a bottle of champagne in the hotel room.

There was a hint of a smile on his lips and an arrogant look in his eyes.

As the saying goes, people can't be unlucky all the time, and even gambling won't keep losing.

What happened to champagne at halftime?

He was not a believer.

Thinking of this, he turned to look behind him.

There were several people sitting on the couch.

There are movie directors, Will Johnson, Yu Chenghao, and Qin Yufang, who flew back again.

On the surface, she was taking Yu Chenghao back to China, but in fact, she wanted to witness the moment of defeating Su Mu with her own eyes.

Zhai Hong raised the wine glass in his hand, and then said: "On behalf of Nas, I wish this movie a big hit, with a box office of 1 billion!" ”

“！！！”

“……”

Hearing this number, everyone present was slightly quiet.

Even Wil. Johnson, who was accustomed to seeing the big world, sighed a little.

He has made so many movies, and the highest box office is only more than 800 million.

The box office of $1 billion, although it is not the highest in Hollywood history, has reached a level that is difficult to surpass.

This Huaxia's box office of two or three billion is not the same thing.

If you convert the exchange rate, that is as high as 7 billion output value.

I thought that Zhai Hong was going to say that it would be good to defeat Spider-Man next door, but now it feels a little unrealistic to set such a goal.

In fact, everyone has estimated it a long time ago.

With the cost of Shadow Man, as long as it can exceed 700 million US dollars, it will be considered a success.

So at this time,

A few people on the sofa didn't know how to answer this conversation.

Looking at the silent few people, Zhai Hong continued: "No matter how stunned, you still have to have dreams, even if it doesn't work out this time, there will be a second part, a third part, which can be achieved after all, come, have a drink." ”

Everyone raised their glasses.

On the side, Qin Yufang stepped forward and looked at Zhai Hong with a smile: "This time, I can finally win him." ”

Zhai Hong: "Don't worry, this is the United States, it's Hollywood, not in China, no matter what means he uses, he can't toss too high waves." ”

Qin Yufang smiled: "I'm really looking forward to the release." ”

"Me too."

The two looked at each other and smiled, clinking glasses confidently.

At this moment, Yu Chenghao, who was behind him, was speechless.

For his 'partner' and the film 'investor' to open champagne again, thinking that he could defeat his 'benefactor'.

All he could say was that he had really done his best.

Yu Chenghao sighed inwardly, put down his wine glass, and didn't bother to say or think about it.

Forget it, tired.

…

In June, a long time came out.

Theaters in various states and cities in the United States have been officially released!

On the first day, the release time and the number of films scheduled for each movie were similar.

is nothing more than some movies, there will be more theaters behind them, such as Nass will provide more theaters under its umbrella.

However, this gap has little impact on the attendance rate on the first day.

On the first day, most of the movie tickets were sold out and the theaters were full.

Two or three days later,

There will be a tendency to choose movies with a better reputation.

Three days before the premiere, it ended quickly.

The audience is still in the excitement period.

Even on the Internet, I can't see any evaluation trends, and it seems that the time for reviews has not yet arrived.

It's just purely from the attendance rate and the number of films.

Shadow Man and Xinghai are relatively high, so it can be guessed that the box office should also be at the top.

Spider-Man and Super Cop, on the other hand, will be a little behind.

But it was also expected by everyone.

however

The first week is not over yet, and things seem to be starting to change a bit.

The comments about Spider-Man on the Internet are overwhelming, like spreading addiction...
