Chapter 341: The global box office is 150 million

Although under the leadership of Chen Qiming, many people are polite to Liming on the surface.

But in fact, even Dawn himself could feel the perfunctory treatment of these people towards him.

He's not Jack Cheng, and he's not Jamie Chen.

In Asia, he is one of the Four Heavenly Kings and is comparable to Chen Qiming in popularity.

Even if he co-starred in a movie, he may be inferior to Chen Qiming and others in terms of coffee position, but it will not be too bad.

But when I arrived in the United States, that all changed immediately.

At the banquet, along the way, Liming saw that everyone was polite to Chen Qiming, and there were even many beautiful blondes who gave Chen Qiming a flattering eye.

And he, at this time, is like a follower.

Although everyone was smiling when Chen Qiming helped introduce him, they looked very happy to meet him.

But as soon as they turned their heads, these people became perfunctory, which can be called Sichuan's face.

The continuous neglect of others made Dawn a little discouraged.

At the same time, it also gave him a more real feeling of Chen Qiming and Jackie Chan's international prestige.

Before in Hong Kong and Taiwan, he knew that Chen Qiming was very popular in Europe and the United States.

But the newspaper description always feels a little untrue.

Until now, Dawn really felt it.

He saw with his own eyes that after seeing Chen Qiming, Hollywood A-list movie star Brad Pitt put aside the friends he was talking to, laughed and hugged Chen Qiming, and the relationship between good friends was revealed.

He also heard Time Warner's CEO Steven say that as long as Chen Qiming is free, Warner will tailor a blockbuster for him with an investment of no less than 10 million US dollars.

Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Liming really felt Chen Qiming's popularity in Europe and the United States.

It was also at this moment that the slightest thought in my heart that I still wanted to compete with Chen Qiming became weaker and weaker, until it disappeared.

"Feeling like you're in a bad mood?"

I took Dawn for a walk, met a lot of people, and the two walked to the bathroom together.

After going to the toilet, Chen Qiming washed his hands and asked Liming.

Dawn lit a cigarette for herself and took a deep breath, "I feel like I'm back in the entertainment industry."

At that time, I stood next to Andy like an ant as I do today. ”

Hearing this, Chen Qiming probably understood his feelings.

He hadn't experienced that feeling much, but he had it.

Whether it was standing like an ant at Aaron Kwok's concert at the beginning, or being a green leaf next to Lin Zhiying later......

"It's all one step at a time, and if you want to develop in Hollywood, this step will definitely have to be experienced."

Chen Qiming patted him on the shoulder and comforted.

Dawn rolled her eyes, "I'm not you!" ”

Everyone's story is unique.

Although envy Chen Qiming.

It was also because of him that he had the urge to break into Hollywood.

But Liming himself is still self-aware, and he doesn't think he can replicate Chen Qiming's path.

Smiling, Chen Qiming turned to say: "I'm still very confident in this film that the Grim Reaper is coming."

It may not be long before the film is released in Europe and the United States.

When the time comes, with the work, if you want to develop here, it will not be so difficult.

As for today, the main thing is to let you get to know these guys outside, and you should be familiar with each other. ”

As he spoke, he patted Dawn on the shoulder again.

"You're the big guy, you have the final say!"

……

The so-called strong are stronger.

Movies can also be described by this rule.

With more than 20 million at the box office in the first week, the movie "Anaconda Disaster" has officially become a hit movie.

Some experts estimate that if the film does not encounter other surprises in the second week, the box office this week may be higher than last week.

However, if there is no accident, the accident will definitely come.

On the 17th, two blockbusters "Golden Eye" and "President of the United States" by United States and Colombia entered the market menacingly.

The scale of investment in these two films is not small, and the publicity has long been hot.

Therefore, as soon as the two movies were released, they immediately took away the single-day box office champion and runner-up of the day, and "Python Disaster" was squeezed to the third place.

Among them, "Golden Eye" is a series of "007" movies, and its box office is even more unimaginable.

In the first three days of release, it directly slashed $26 million.

Although the box office of "The President of the United States" began to decline on the second day of its release, it also won a high figure of 10 million US dollars in three days.

Affected by the impact of the two films, although the box office of this week's "Anaconda Disaster" is slightly higher than last week, it is not much, just one million more, and occupies the second place in the weekly box office list of the second week with a score of 24 million US dollars.

In two weeks after its release, it slashed $47 million.

This is definitely an excellent result.

If this trend continues, no one will question "Python Disaster" even if it shouts that it wants to get 100 million at the box office in North America.

It's a pity that this is the United States, and November to December is the Christmas season in the United States, and many schedules are aimed at this schedule.

On the 22nd, the animated film "Toy Story" released by Bona was officially released.

"Toy Story" slashed $29 million in five days after its release, landing at the top of the box office charts.

All films, including GoldenEye, Anaconda, and President of the United States, have taken a hit at the box office.

"GoldenEye" is okay, although the box office in the second week has dropped compared with last week, it has also stabilized at more than 20 million, ranking second.

The third is not "Anaconda Calamity".

"Anaconda Disaster" was originally released for two weeks, and this is the third week, and many audiences have seen it.

Therefore, this week, the box office of "Anaconda Disaster" ushered in a big drop, and was beaten by the data of "President of the United States" of 15 million US dollars, ranking fourth with 13 million US dollars.

[I was very impressed by the movie "Toy Story".

Although it is a cartoon, it can penetrate people's hearts.

The storyline is so touching that each character is so vivid and interesting that you can't help but fall into it.

After watching the movie, I pondered: life is like a journey, we all need to grow and adapt to change, and find our own worth and meaning. 】

[A movie full of humor and warmth, which makes people can't help but be moved.] The movie brought me a lot of thoughts and insights, and also reminded me of my childhood, the most worthwhile movie - "Toy Story"]

[Pixar Animation's multi-year masterpiece, the best movie of the year "Toy Story"]

……

Flipping through today's movie reviews, Chen Qiming sighed helplessly.

"Anaconda Disaster" won more than $47 million in the first two weeks, which gave Chen Qiming and Warner a lot of confidence.

Even if "GoldenEye" won 25 million box office on the first Wednesday.

They also agreed that the North American box office of "Anaconda Disaster" is expected to exceed 100 million.

But the appearance of "Toy Story" shattered this illusion of theirs.

After the release of this animated film, the word of mouth was simply explosive.

Now the whole of the United States, almost all about the good reviews of this movie.

The praise from all over the United States naturally brought horror to the box office of "Toy Story".

In its second week, the film grossed $41 million at the box office.

It directly won more than 70 million US dollars at the box office in two weeks.

If this trend continues, Toy Story will surely take North America by storm in the next few weeks.

And the film market is that big.

"Toy Story" exploded at the box office, and other movies are naturally about to be impacted.

This can be seen from the fact that the box office of "Anaconda Disaster" fell directly to nine million this week.

Not only "Python Disaster", but also movies such as "GoldenEye" and "President of the United States" have also been more or less impacted.

At present, the Anaconda disaster has been in theaters for four weeks, with a total box office of 67 million, which is still more than 30 million short of 100 million.

If it was like the two weeks when it was first released, it wouldn't be long before it reached a box office of hundreds of millions.

But now, this goal has apparently become an unlikely thing.

Putting down the newspaper, Chen Qiming shook his head and no longer wanted to ask about this question.

Although I regret that the box office cannot exceed 100 million.

But the movie "Anaconda Calamity" has clearly reached a very good goal.

The total investment of "Python Disaster" is only more than 7 million US dollars.

With this investment, it can win such a high box office.

Plus the subsequent video market.

The movie is already a big profit in general.

And that's not even counting other markets such as Asia and Europe.

Currently, the film is being released in places such as Asia and Europe.

And the box office is also very good.

In addition to the North American market, the film has grossed $47 million in other markets.

According to the trend, the next other markets should still be able to harvest about 20 million, plus North America is extending the release, although 20 million cannot be reached, but 15 million should be available.

As a result, the total global box office of the movie "Anaconda Disaster" should be around 150 million.

Well, dollars.

The global box office is 150 million, which is not low.

This is the highest-grossing film produced by a Chinese film company in recent years.

is also because of this box office, the recent Chen Qiming is called a scenery in the Chinese film industry.

Some people in Hong Kong and Taiwan even shouted the slogan that Chinese films are about to go international.

At the same time, because of the big hit of "Python Disaster" in the global market, Hong Kong and Taiwan fans are full of expectations for "Death is Coming" produced by Qiming Film and Television.

Many fans said that they were ready to pay for another blockbuster film produced by Qiming Film and Television.

Well, it's a blockbuster.

The big sales of the two films "Storm and Storm Dominates the World" and "The Disaster of the Python" have ushered in a new high in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Qiming Film and Television has been established for a long time, but there are very few movies produced.

However, the two films produced were box office hits, which made the media and fans full of expectations for Qiming Film and Television.

"Prepare, let's go back to Treasure Island in two days!"

No longer thinking about the box office not exceeding 100 million, Chen Qiming stood up and explained to Li Xiaowen.

"Understood!"

Li Xiaowen nodded, and then asked, "Harvey Wingster asked you to talk about the North American release of "The Grim Reaper" at three o'clock this afternoon.

But Warners happened to have another promotional event on the fly.

Did you push Harvey or ...... first?"

Chen Qiming thought for a while and said, "Don't push, make an appointment near the event to meet the place, and don't delay!" ”

"Anaconda Disaster" was almost entirely produced by Qiming Film and Television.

The success of this movie made Qiming Film and Television successfully famous in North America.

Ha Wei was originally interested in "The Grim Reaper", and the global box office of "Anaconda Disaster" reached hundreds of millions, which stimulated him even more.

Many times in a row, this guy has been contacting Chen Qiming, and even did not hesitate to stay at the door of Chen Qiming's hotel for this reason, just to win the North American distribution rights of this movie.

Originally, Chen Qiming didn't want to cooperate with him.

But after negotiating with Warner many times in a row, the two sides did not agree on the direction of cooperation in the movie "The Grim Reaper", which made Chen Qiming agree to Harvey's interview, wanting to hear what conditions this big fool could give.

In fact, Warner is not afraid to be interested in "The Grim Reaper".

On the contrary, they were interested in the film.

Although this film obviously has more Chinese elements than "Python Disaster", the story of this film is very new.

The causal setting of the Grim Reaper or Hades is very attractive.

Therefore, Warner's interest in this film is even greater than the original "Anaconda Disaster".

But also because of the high expectations for this film and the desire to make more money, Warner's side did not even agree to Chen Qiming's conditions.

Chen Qiming means that Warner will distribute it and then divide the profits equally, whether it is at the box office or in the video tape market.

But Warner didn't quite want that.

They want to buy out the North American rights to the film all at once.

And then that's just it, as long as the money is in place, Chen Qiming is not unwilling.

But Warner's first thing is that the money is not in place, they are only willing to give eight million dollars, and they also demand that if there is a sequel, it must also be given to Warner.

Eight million dollars.

This is simply sending away the screamer, how could Chen Qiming be willing.

Although "The Grim Reaper is Coming" does have a lot less value because it does not star him.

But Chen Qiming himself thinks that this film is more than just this money.

On his side, the buyout price is less than 15 million US dollars, and he doesn't talk about it directly.

"Find a chance to tell Warner about my meeting with Harvey! Make them a little stressed! ”

Chen Qiming confessed.

Warner was intrigued by "Here Comes the Grim Reaper."

But these guys are completely sure that Chen Qiming only has one partner in Europe and the United States, so they want to lower the price.

The appearance of Ha Wei just made Chen Qiming put a little pressure on them.

Of course, if Harvey's offer satisfies Chen Qiming, he doesn't mind handing over "Death is Coming" to Harvey for distribution.

Anyway, although he and Warner have signed contracts for three film collaborations.

But that's co-financed films.

"The Grim Reaper is Coming" is not a co-investment, but an independent investment and production by Qiming Film and Television.

At noon, Chen Qiming attended a live promotion of "Python Disaster" organized by Warner in Manhattan.

After the event, Chen Qiming immediately rushed to a café not far away.

In the distance, he saw Harvey.

"Hi...... Chen, here! ”

The fat man shouted from a long distance.
