00940 Overtake Start (Second Shift, Ask for a Monthly Pass)

Tyrese is the Chairman of DSN.

In Hollywood, though, Tyrese has another title.

This title is very similar to Steven's.

Steven was the tyrant on the set.

Tyrese is the tyrant of Hollywood.

Sonenfeld completely lost the triumphant he had just now, and resigned himself to answering the phone.

"Don't ask so much, come here now. ”

"Yes, Mr. Tyrrell. "Sonenfeld has no confidence in the face of Tyrese.

In the entire Hollywood, in addition to the other six chairmen, I am afraid that only Steven's level, or other older generation of showbiz people can say no to Tyrese.

When Sonamfeld arrived at the company, he found that the conference hall was filled with the creators of God of War.

"Mr. Tyrese. ”

Sonenfeld said hello and took his seat.

At this time, the assistant picked up a document: "Mr. Sonenfeld, since it opened an hour ago, the box office of "God of War" began to plummet, and on the contrary, the box office of "Animal Supermarket" produced by PLM is steadily rising, and the current box office gap between the two is only 10 million US dollars, for the time being, "God of War" is still in the lead, but if it continues to develop according to this box office curve, it will be overtaken by "Animal Supermarket" in about two hours." ”

"This is impossible, the film schedule of "Animal Supermarket" is only 5%, and the filming budget of "Animal Supermarket" plus the publicity budget is only 40 million US dollars, and the budget of "God of War" is as high as 250 million US dollars, the two are not equivalent at all, why does "Animal Supermarket" surpass "God of War" at the box office?" said Sonenfeld excitedly.

"That's the problem. Tyrese said calmly: "Although "Animal Supermarket" was released at the same time as "God of War", it has been less than a day, but there have been super high reviews on the Internet. ”

"Mr. Tyrese, you should also know that the evaluation of professional film critics does not represent the box office, and many times low reputation will be exchanged for super high box office, I think this is PLM's strategy, buying film critics to improve word of mouth, I think this is only a temporary increase, and soon more moviegoers will pull down the score. ”

"You still don't understand, "Animal Supermarket" is not a professional film critic's evaluation, but an audience's evaluation, and "Animal Supermarket" has now appeared a lot of topics, whether it is a search engine or social media, there are a lot of positive topics. ”

Tyrese looked at Sonenfeld: "You should understand what it means for God of War if the two lose on the first day of the battle. ”

The investment amount, expectation, and even popularity of the two films are several times different.

If God of War doesn't win the first day box office on the first day, it will be disastrous for God of War.

Public opinion will completely tilt towards "Animal Supermarket", and at the same time, it will also sing "God of War".

There is a phenomenon called word-of-mouth effect in Hollywood, such as "Avatar" ten years ago, or "Detective of the Angry Sea" this year, which are all products of the word-of-mouth effect.

In fact, this word-of-mouth effect is the same as the so-called tap water in China.

It is a large number of positive reviews, which leads moviegoers into the cinema.

The theater chain will also adjust the number of films scheduled, increase the number of "Animal Supermarket", and reduce the number of other films.

What needs to be squeezed must be the amount of films in "God of War".

"I should have known that I really shouldn't have believed in your ability to be a piece of shit, not even Steven's assistant director. ”

"Mr. Tyrese, James has Mr. Steven to help with the editing. "Sonenfeld finally found an excuse.

"Steven's influence and ability cannot be denied, but if James does not have the ability to shoot good pictures and shots, Steven will not be able to edit any good things, so in the final analysis, it is a matter of ability. Tyrese said unemotionally.

At this time, the assistant's phone rang, and the assistant picked up the phone to answer.

Half a meal later, he leaned over and whispered a few words in Tyrese's ear.

Tyrese's face instantly became even more gloomy: "The real-time box office of "Animal Supermarket" has surpassed "God of War" again. ”

The investment of $40 million versus the investment of $250 million, and the 5% of the film schedule versus 60% of the film schedule, actually lost at the real-time box office.

This kind of disparity against the sky is completely unimaginable.

"Is that Animal Supermarket really that good?"

"boss, "Animal Supermarket" was originally adapted from a true story, and it itself has IP popularity. The assistant said: "Secondly, Mr. Steven's influence also played a vital role, of course, the most critical point is that this movie has 0 negative reviews in the top 100 word-of-mouth surveys, 1,000 word-of-mouth surveys, and the praise rate is more than 95%, and there are many topics, such as Mr. Steven's first big screen, as well as the requirement for the villain to show his face, as well as the play within the play, easter eggs, these are all highly discussed topics." ”

"Damn, why is there such a high degree of topic for a movie with a small investment?" Tyrese gritted his teeth and roared: "That old thing of Rasfar has really picked up a treasure...... You go and get in touch with James to see if he's willing to work with our company. ”

This year is destined to be a bumper year for PLM, and Steven's movie will not be mentioned, creating a history and a miracle.

But who would have thought that a little-known little director would become a blockbuster and drop a depth charge on the entire Hollywood at the end of the year.

"Boss, our company's stock has fluctuated and started to fall slightly. ”

Tyrese had already thought of it, but he still said calmly: "It's just speculators selling now, and after the box office comes out on the first day tomorrow, our company's stock will usher in an even bigger decline, so get ready." ”

In fact, with the size of DSN, the failure of a movie will not cause much damage to the company, and it is not even a bone injury.

However, the decline in the stock price is certain, and for some major shareholders, what they value is the value of the stake itself, and DSN's stock can make them a leader in Hollywood.

But some small shareholders, they will definitely keep an eye on the stock price, and a 1% drop in the stock price is equivalent to 1% less in their net worth, and they are most concerned about this.

At the shareholders' meeting, Tyrese will also be attacked by more shareholders, and even shake his current position, which is the biggest impact.

And the biggest trouble is that "God of War" was originally made as the vanguard of the trilogy.

But now DSN is in a very awkward situation, continuing to shoot two or three?

Whether you shoot or not, it's a huge hassle for DSN.
