Chapter five hundred and fiftieth chapters always change
Hollywood is ushering in a situation where epic blockbusters are rushing in. Time Warner has confirmed two major investments, which are undoubtedly the best among them. As for how much crazy investment can be recovered in this life, it is hard to say.
The biggest possibility is that "Alexander the Great" is terrible, and "Troy" is facing losses, just like in previous lives.
Ryan remembers it very clearly that if the promotion costs are included, the total investment in the movie can even exceed "Titanic". Such a huge expense only recovered more than $400 million in global box office.
Only by relying on subsequent TV copyright fees and long disc sales, we can slowly make back the money.
In addition to Disney, Warner Bros. is the biggest producer in recent times.
There is no secret to this circle. Ryan heard that not only did they have these two big money, but also planned to recreate the comic heroes of DC in view of the successive success of Marvel Superheroes.
With the latest news, Warner Bros. is preparing to bring Princess Diana to the big screen again. This new Wonder Woman movie is said to be preparing the script.
In addition, it’s Superman, and they have also prepared a lot of money to recreate the Superman series.
As one of the two of the Big Three of DC Comics, whether it is Princess Diana or Clark Kent, they all have wide supporters and even have a superhero who are more popular than the amazing ones, but their movies are difficult to shoot.
The simplest point is that the amazing heroes have obvious flaws, they look closer to ordinary people, and they have a stronger sense of substitution on the big screen, while Superman is a typical example of being tall and noble...
As for Princess Diana, if she was the only protagonist in the movie, she beat a bunch of men to the point of urination, what would the patriarchs react?
This society is essentially a patriarchal society.
The last person of the Big Three, Mr. Bruce Wayne, has postponed this series indefinitely since the defeat of "Batman and Robin". It is really hard to say whether the glory can be reproduced in this life.
Those from China Film Group, including China Film Group, were warmly welcomed in Hollywood, and several major companies also jointly held a cocktail party to entertain their party.
Hollywood people are not fools, and they naturally don’t mention sensitive topics in the past. The huge potential of the Chinese market and the box office numbers that have risen sharply in recent years have made them salivate. As the other party joins WTO, the market will inevitably open to a certain extent, and the moment for Hollywood to share the feast is not far away.
As long as it is profitable, Hollywood does not care whether it is black or Asian standing opposite.
As a pioneer in Hollywood, Ryan has already gained profits from the other side, although not much, but a good start.
For example, the box office of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" released in China this summer has increased significantly compared to its previous life due to its powerful publicity and other factors. The total box office is close to 80 million yuan. Although it can only get millions of dollars in accordance with the 20% share agreement, it does not require taxes or deductions for the promotion and distribution cost.
Moreover, as time goes by, the profits that movies released there can be increased significantly.
Party, work and proper leisure are the themes of Ryan's life during this period, and naturally, dates with Nicole and the others are indispensable. Although everyone is concentrated in Los Angeles, they are silently not breaking this tacit understanding.
The office in Disney's headquarters building has also become Ryan's long-term working position. In addition to understanding and mastering Disney's operations, he is also dealing with other industrial matters here, because George is changing roles and some private affairs are also moving to this side.
In late July, Garcia Rodriguez went to the San Fernando Valley and brought two upcoming DVDs from there, which were specially delivered to George.
Ryan just looked at the cover and threw it aside. He had seen too many such things in his previous life. Even if one of the starring actors was famous a few years ago, he had no interest.
The DVD comes from a famous adult video company in the San Fernando Valley, through the Cayman Islands Foundation, where Scott is the de facto owner of the company.
Last year, the company, abbreviated as ‘’, bought the relevant copyright of Gladiator from Jenkins Pictures and filmed another version, and the starring actor was Tom Cruise...
This former Hollywood superstar is now indescribable. After spending a B-level movie, it is difficult for him to make money even pay interest on huge debts. However, his past life experience has made him develop the habit of spending money big, especially with the crowds of people around him, he has cocaine. In addition, he has common problems such as alcoholism among most Hollywood stars, and his financial situation has worsened.
Although there are two B-level movies that have a good box office and have received some share of their money, it is really hard to sustain.
For the debts of that mountain, for more material enjoyment, and for money to exchange for cocaine, this man finally turned into the San Fernando Valley under the constant persuasion and temptation of his agent. He not only starred in the adult version of "Gladiator", which is known as the largest investment in history, but also shot another blockbuster with a lot of money.
Compared with this version of "Gladiator", another adult blockbuster has attracted widespread attention since it was exposed by the media.
Because the film only has two actors, all of them are former superstars, but one comes from Hollywood and the other comes from professional boxing.
Well... the person who acted opposite Tom Cruise also faced huge debts, named Michael Tyson. These two good shows performed must be very popular among heavy taste lovers.
This kind of thing didn't arouse much interest in Ryan. He just mentioned it to her when he went to Nicole and threw it behind his head.
In fact, Nicole said it very well. When dealing with enemies, he was never a big-hearted person.
There is also Michael Eisner, who lost all his positions and sold some of his Disney shares to repay a huge amount of joint and several compensation of up to $100 million. After these shares were turned, they finally fell into the hands of Ryan and Nicole.
The news was naturally spread by those who were interested. It is said that the former Disney tyrant with a bad temper had to temporarily be admitted to a nursing home due to heart and blood pressure problems.
"When you have the upper hand, never give your enemies a chance to breathe and turn over." This is what Ryan said to Taylor.
Miss Swift in this life is destined to be different from her previous life. Her family, identity and status, and the imprints of Ryan and Nicole that are indelible on her body are destined to face more complicated situations in the future.
The hot summer season continues. The "Spider-Man" theaters shrank to less than 300, and the box office in North America did not exceed $1.5 million for two consecutive weeks. After the box office in North America barely reached $411 million, the market potential was obviously exhausted.
This superhero movie is also a hit overseas. All regions that are released are basically the local weekly box office champions, except for Japan. There are never many superhero movie accounts here.
Based on market response and dynamics, several professional institutions predict that the global box office of "Spider-Man" should be between 800 million and 900 million US dollars.
Such a big-selling movie, the sequel will definitely be on the agenda, and Marvel is currently actively planning to shoot the second part.
The three-week release of "The Lord of the Rings: The Twin Towers" also exceeded $200 million in North America. It is not a problem to catch up with the first one, but it is difficult to surpass "Spider-Man".
A big-selling movie can be translated into more realistic returns at Disney. Although Disney's financial statements have not been released yet, forecasts from Wall Street show that Disney's net income in the past six months will definitely exceed the total profits of last year.
Since Ryan took over, Disney's stock has ushered in a period of rising. Although the range is not large, the overall upward trend is extremely obvious. Now the market value of the entire group company has exceeded US$67 billion, which is definitely a behemoth in the media industry.
In addition to these big productions, Touchstone has also released several low-cost series of movies for Jenkins Pictures in the past six months, such as "Scream 4" which replaced the heroine. After Charlize withdrew, the appeal of the movie has dropped significantly. In terms of box office, it only recovered a total of $35 million in cost, and profits can only depend on peripherals.
There is also "Resident Evil", a science fiction horror film produced by Jenkins Pictures, also released by Touchstone Pictures. When it was released in mid-May, despite the pressure from "Spider-Man", it only won more than 2,400 theaters, and it still received more than 31 million US dollars in the first week.
Although the movie has only been released for eight weeks and has to be completely removed because of its single-player score of $1,000, it has also swept away nearly $65 million in North America. Another big box office player of this movie comes from Japan. Because the game is also popular and popular, the overseas box office of this place alone is as high as $19.7 million.
Because of his busy work at the time, Ryan did not go to the theater. Later, he watched "Resident Evil" in his own private theater and met Alice, who had been missing for a long time.
Mira Jovovich is destined to live on this series for a lifetime.
Strangely, when filming an action scene, Mira Jovovich bizarrely injured Paul Anderson sitting in the director's chair, and then the ex-wife of Luc Besson quickly got along with the other party.
Compared with box office, "Resident Evil" has a better response in the disc and video tape markets, like all horror films. This series in the previous life can be filmed one after another, and the income from surrounding copyrights has played a huge role.
With the arrival of August, another amazing big production, "X-Men 2", is getting closer to the release date, and the publicity offensive is also launched in full swing. With the help of this craze, "Captain America" has also released concept posters of several characters. (To be continued...)
