1000.Family separation(1/4)
(First, stack armor, which is a bit of a slap in the face. I think 500,000 words is a lot... After calculation, it seems that it is only about 100 chapters. That's not right, 100 chapters will definitely not be completed. It should be about 200 chapters... maybe? How about 7 million words?
It can be over, right?...Probably? Why is this math so difficult...)
#XuXin lost the David Award and was accompanied by "Perfect"#
The emergence of this topic means that the news of the 57th David Award has spread to China.
In fact, to be honest, if "Perfect" had not been shortlisted for the David Award, then this award, recognized as the most valuable in Italy, might not be as popular in the country as a random piece of gossip.
But because of Xu Xin, it rarely received a lot of attention.
When people saw the movie "Perfect" losing to the other two films, they didn't mention the regrets or feelings they felt. The words "David Award" are indeed remembered by many people.
But because "The Best" and "Beautiful" were not released in China, everyone doesn't know what the story of these two movies is, or... how much better they are than "Perfect".
unknown.
Therefore, no one can figure out how "Perfect" failed.
The reporters actually called Shuang Wei and wanted to interview Xu Xin... Unfortunately, Shuang Wei didn't pay any attention to them.
Just kidding...what's your level?
Interviewing Director Xu?
If I win an award, forget it. If I don’t win, I’ll come and join in the fun... It’s good if I don’t quarrel with you.
However, that afternoon, the boss sent instructions.
"Perfect Strangers" is about to land in Hollywood, and the press release can be prepared.
…
For Xu Xin, "Perfect" is actually a story that happened a long time ago.
There used to be an unbridled inspiration, the desire to shoot, and the wonderful sparks that came out of the collaboration with friends...it was all like a gorgeous and gorgeous dream.
The second after the fireworks exploded, everything calmed down.
It's been more than a year since the filming was completed, and it's really unrealistic for him to get excited about it again.
Even though "Perfect"'s current earnings are frighteningly high.
It's not just its box office.
What’s more, it lies in its remake copyright.
Currently, under the operation of Xiying Studio, it has sold remake rights to more than 9 countries, including France, Spain, South Korea, Turkey, Germany, Russia, Denmark, etc...
And the remake rights in more countries are under negotiation.
The copyright prices for these remakes basically start at one million euros, and the prices are not ambiguous at all.
But there are so many people asking, and those who are willing to pay are even more unambiguous.
According to the most conservative estimates, this script will bring a profit of 100 million yuan to Xiying Studio in at least the next 10 years.
Because of the remake copyright, Xi Film Studio also wants a share of the box office.
Although it is not high, a little adds up to a lot.
It can even be said that this project is currently the most valuable project of Xi Film Studio in the world.
It can be called a hugely profitable transaction.
But for Xu Xin, the end is the end.
On the plane, he and Philip chatted about the profits from "Perfect" all the time.
As the most direct script creator, Philip has completely realized the freedom of wealth in his self-definition with this script.
Earned millions of euros.
Moreover, this guy is already going to buy a villa in Sicily, which he has longed for.
Seeing his excited look, Xu Xin felt a little envious for no reason.
Envy his desire to gain money.
Then, without any warning, he remembered a chat he had with the old man during the Olympic Games.
He said that his "seven emotions and six desires" are less than those of ordinary people.
It means that because I have money, I lack the concept of money.
This is his advantage and disadvantage.
At that time, I didn’t quite understand this feeling. I felt that I had been poor when I was a child and knew what it was like to have no money. But now that my family has money, it allows him to live more comfortably and be more influenced by his artistic creation.
Isn’t it a good thing to have fewer restrictions?
Why is it a disadvantage?
But think about it now...
Ginger is still spicy.
He couldn't even remember the last time he... No, it should be said that after so many years, he had no "heartbeat" emotions due to how much money he had made.
He didn't know whether this was good or bad.
But looking at Phillip looking so excited and thinking about the future, to be honest... he was quite envious.
How about...find a way to spend some money yourself?
Spend thousands of dollars looking for excitement?
But the question is, where can the money be spent? A sports car?... Say goodbye. Thinking of that kind of seat makes his back hurt.
House?...The question is why buy so many houses?
Like my father, he has houses all over the country, but he can’t remember where his own house is?
He scratched his head in distress.
Do you want to mention the grade?
Um.
Decided.
Buy a 1916 bar in two days and it will be drawn.
China is a bit tired and crooked.
Just as I was thinking about it, a reminder came from the plane.
The plane is about to enter the landing phase.
New York, here we come.
This is where the first promotional stop for "Perfect Strangers" begins.
…
"Perfect" is a movie that has been in theaters for a long time, and its promotional methods are actually quite simple.
Paramount has already sent the first batch of advertisements to major theaters and invited professional film critics to recommend the film.
These people, including Xu Xin, may be well-known in Italy, but they are all anonymous in the United States.
So this promotion is not very grand.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have waited until the movie was released on the 25th before they started promoting it.
Even the way of promotion is to attend the premiere, visit several cities in the next few days, and appear in theaters after watching the movie.
This is what imported films are like.
Under the indiscriminate bombardment of local Hollywood movies, unless there is a truly large-scale capital investment, it will be impossible to compete with others in the market.
The only thing you can rely on is word of mouth.
Not to mention...the 26th is the day when the big IP "Fast and Furious" will be released.
In front of the other party, "Perfect" is just a tiny Karami.
Therefore, Paramount's promotional goal this time is to rely on DVD resources to make long-term profits based on good theater box office, just like other films in their company.
While Xu Xin was promoting in New York, Yang Mi had already returned to China.
The most important second phase of China's promotion for "Pacific Rim" begins.
As for the box office number, many people, including the couple, are waiting to see.
…
New York, AMC Empire Theater.
Xu Xin sat in the guest waiting room specially provided behind the theater and yawned out of boredom.
At this moment, the premiere of "Perfect" has begun, but there is still nearly an hour until it ends.
Still early.
To be continued...
