Actors on Hollywood sets are also graded.

It's like there's going to be a boss in the NBA locker room.

The attitude of the boss will greatly affect the harmony and combat effectiveness of the team.

Hollywood is not so serious, but it is undeniable that since Lao Mei has this kind of culture, Hollywood will not be completely spared.

Therefore, the relationship between a big coffee like Morgan Freeman and the production team is very harmonious, and Lu Ping'an's prestige has now reached a new height, so other actors will naturally not blow up.

Batman's filming is on schedule, and "Latent" has also ushered in North American painting.

Four weeks after its release, the North American box office of "Latent" was 87 million, and the global box office was still a week away from the end, but the total box office also came to 170 million at this time.

For a horror film with a cost of only 3 million, this achievement is already extremely explosive.

Lu Ping'an is also quite satisfied with this result, the original box office is 155 million, and now it has been exceeded.

If you count the remaining week, the excess box office will add another 10 million or 20 million.

And that's without taking into account inflation.

If this factor is taken into account, the results will be even more explosive.

This is quite worthy of Wen Ziren.

Hollywood is a vanity fair, and the explosion of "Latent 1" did not unexpectedly bring Lu Ping'an various expected dividends.

One of the most direct is that his director's value has risen sharply.

Watzberg said that there were already companies bidding, saying that Lu Ping'an would direct horror films with a salary of more than $10 million.

The salary of other types of films has also increased a lot, from a base of $3 million to a base of at least $5 million.

And it's not a fixed salary, now he can already talk about dividends, although it won't be much, and it can't be compared with a real big director, but it is also a great personality improvement.

Dingfeng has also received many institutional inquiries about shareholding.

"Chainsaw" and "Latent", two films that Lu Ping An clearly said would be a series, made the valuation of the peak soar, and it has now reached about $120 million, more than double that of half a year ago.

It's just about accepting the rest of the shareholders, and the top shareholders are not in a hurry.

The company is well funded, the future prospects are promising, and there is no need to dilute the shares.

It's just that in this way, other investors must be introduced for a single project.

Hollywood is also a river and lake, your low-budget movies are big hits one after another, and people on the rivers and lakes will definitely stare at you.

If you don't let them get a piece of the pie, do you want to mix it up?

In this regard, Lu Ping An and shareholders have already made plans.

If you are in the rivers and lakes, then don't be so high, you can't go far if you eat alone.

Therefore, under the premise of reasonableness, the new project of Summit accepts cooperation.

So soon, Watzberg began to attract merchants for the projects of "Chainsaw 2", "Death Day 2" and "Latent 2".

This is not over, taking advantage of the prestige of Lu Ping An to reach a new high, the peak has also released other project plans of the company.

"Brokeback Mountain", "Kung Fu Panda" and "District 9".

In all three projects, a minimalist plot introduction was released.

"Brokeback Mountain" doesn't need much introduction, this is a local art film project in the United States, and few people in Hollywood don't know it.

"Kung Fu Panda" is a "Sino-American co-production", and the story is a very simple story of the panda protagonist learning kung fu to defeat the villain.

The introduction is only a few sentences, and the characters are only three pictures.

But that's the purpose of Lu Ping'an.

Let's take a look and tell the world that he has this project and is already working on it, so that others who have a mind will not waste their efforts.

If you want to do it, join our team.

"District 9" is the same, the original time and space project will release a short film in 05, and then there will be a feature film.

What Lu Ping'an did was to insert his eyes first, with the script and the public project, this will be his in the future.

Three new projects with different styles and themes, plus three already successful series projects, and finally "Batman" that is currently being filmed.

For a time, Summit Entertainment was in the limelight.

Investors from all over Hollywood flocked to the city.

Of these investors, Watzberg will also focus on the big companies first.

New projects are put first, and series are taken out first to replace resources.

Although he is not used to the Hollywood Big Six, he also knows the importance of having a good relationship with these people.

Hollywood is in full swing, and the domestic war of "Wonderful Night at the Museum" and "Ambush on All Sides" has also begun.

At the beginning of April, the news of the finalization of "Ambush on All Sides" came out, and the time of finalization was the same as that of the original time and space, July 16th.

And "Wonderful Night" was suggested to be placed after July 30th.

This is the result of several influences.

"Ambush on All Sides" was completed at the end of January, and the later stage has been completed, and part of the soundtrack of "Wonderful Night" has not been completed, because Zhao Jiping and Fang Wenshan are similar, and they are representatives of slow work and meticulous work in the industry, and it will take about a month to finally complete.

So the other party has the right to set the file first.

In addition, isn't Lao Mouzi now taking on a national-level task, and those who have taken this kind of task are born and die when they go out, and it is still easy for the rear to seek some dividends that are not particularly excessive.

So for at least two weeks after the release of "Ambush on All Sides", other blockbusters are not easy to release.

So "Wonderful Night" was originally scheduled for the 16th, and now it has to be moved back.

According to common sense, it's okay to move it back, after all, the summer file has more than two months.

But this year is a little special, August 13 is the Athens Olympics, in Han Sanpin's view, the film market will cool down during the Athens Olympics, because the current inertial thinking is that in the context of major events, the big screen can't grab the TV.

Of course, "Wonderful Night" can also be released in front of "Ambush on All Sides", but it will also have to be released every two weeks, and in this way, it will not be able to eat the dividends of account sharing and movie ticket price increases, unless Lu Ping'an is willing to take this lead.

However, Lu Ping'an felt that it would be fine in two weeks.

The original plan was to release "Ambush on All Sides" a week later, but now it is just postponed for another week, and there is no big problem.

Moreover, Han Sanpin thinks that the Athens Olympics will have an impact on the film market, but Lu Ping'an feels that the actual impact is not particularly large, of course, the premise is that the quality of the film is passable.

Is the quality of "Wonderful Night" acceptable?

Lu Ping'an has this confidence, especially under the premise that "Ambush on All Sides" is foreshadowed.

What's more, this time he won't just rely on the movie itself to attract the box office.

Therefore, "Wonderful Night" is finally set for July 30, and it will be officially announced at the right time.

Of course, it is also delusional for "Ambush on All Sides" to comfortably go through the two weeks of protection.

Lu Ping'an still has two movies in his hands that can be used.

The American version of "Happy Death Day" has been introduced to China this year, and is being studied to finalize, and "Hunger Platform" is also preparing to be finalized.

Then it's all put in front of "Ambush on All Sides".

He didn't have expectations for the box office or anything, anyway, the two films had already returned to their roots.

"If you play like this, "Ambush on Ten Sides" will really encounter an ambush on all sides."

Han Sanpin smiled and settled the matter.

"Happy Death Day" and "Hunger Platform" were released in late June and early July.

Lu Ping'an turned his head and called Xiang Guoqiang, asking him to speed up the renovation progress of the dozens of theaters he already owned
