Chapter 92 Is it okay to be tough? (3/3)

Popular Recommendations: Taming the Beast: The pet beast is just a decree of heaven to punish evil for me to bond with.

"Game of the Brave: Battle in the Jungle" has actually been released a long time ago...

Sony, Colombia’s big project!

The producers behind the scenes are all industry elites.

Sony has high hopes for this movie!

"Jumanji: The Jungle" is a new interpretation of the 1995 version of "Jumanji". This film directed by Joe Johnston grossed US$263 million at the global box office in 1995, which was considered a major success that year.

"Sweeping" the world.

What was going on with Sony Columbia in 1995?

Nobuyuki Idei went to the United States to serve as the executive CEO of Sony Colombia, and then created a series of popular works including "Jumanji", such as: "The Fifth Element", "Men in Black", "Jedi Men"

","Charlie's Angels"...

Sony certainly has high hopes!

In 2016 and 2017, Sony Pictures ranked fifth among the "Big Six" in Hollywood for two consecutive years in North American and global box office. Last year, the total box office was US$1.94 billion. It mainly produced and released 14 films, but in addition to and

Except for "Spider-Man: Homecoming," Marvel's first collaboration, the box office performance of the other films was very sluggish.

It’s okay to be left behind by the traditional five major companies, but to be squeezed under by Longwood Company, the North American branch of Changlin Film and Television...

This is a bit uncomfortable!

So, we took out this old IP, found the most popular Dwayne Johnson, and let Chinese capital enter the game, joining Liu Qianqian...

Yes, Liu Qianqian is the heroine!

After an internal test screening, everyone praised it, so we decisively decided to put it on the Christmas show to compete with "Star Wars Episode 8"!

Without any confidence, who dares to compete with "Star Wars"?

Of course, it’s not a direct confrontation, it’s okay, but it’s not necessary!

After all, where is the nationality of the "Star Wars" series...

"Star Wars: Episode VIII" grossed US$220 million in the first three days of its first weekend, strongly topping the North American weekend box office list and becoming the highest-grossing film in North America in its first weekend so far this year.

The last movies to have more than 200 million dollars in their opening weekend were "Star Wars 7" and "Avengers"...

After that, there are two "Avengers": "Avengers 3: Infinity War" and "Avengers 4: Endgame"...

By the way, the first movie to break 200 million US dollars was "Avengers".

"Avengers 2" is the only "Avengers" series whose box office did not exceed 200 million in its first weekend...

"Star Wars Episode VIII" will be released on December 15th, and "Jumanji" will be released on December 20th...

Delayed by about a week.

When the latter was released, "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" had attracted more than 365 million U.S. dollars in North America as of the 24th. Including the Christmas box office on the 25th, the North American box office revenue reached 397 million U.S. dollars.

It has earned US$380 million in the international film market outside North America, and its global box office revenue has exceeded US$745 million.

"Jumanji: The Jungle Book" performed well after its release. It earned 72 million U.S. dollars in its first six days in North America, beating out "Pitch Perfect 3" and "The Greatest Showman" and other blockbusters of the same period. It also counterattacked "The Greatest Showman" in its third week of release.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi took first place at the box office.

Yes, "Star Wars 8" was overtaken!

Currently, the North American box office of "Jumanji" has exceeded 250 million US dollars.

Anyone who knows a little bit about movies knows that the counterattack of "Jumanji" is because of the genre + Dwayne Johnson!

But Liu Qianqian’s fans don’t think so…

Coupled with the heroine of "Mulan", Liu Qianqian seems to be the third superstar to enter Hollywood after Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi on Weibo!

Shi Shi...just uninstall Weibo!

Out of sight, out of mind…



"It's overtaken...it should almost be overtaken!"

Shen Changlin received a call from Lao Guo, saying that on the fourth weekend, the box office of "The Wandering Earth" was not low, and "The Ex-Raiders 3"...

The box office of the former was 320 million, while that of "Ex Raiders 3" was 340 million!

In the original space and time, the box office of "Predecessor 3" in the second weekend was as high as 480 million.

It has already lost 100 million due to the impact of "The Wandering Earth", and "The Wandering Earth" has been released for 22 days...

Lao Guo continued: "The cumulative box office of "The Wandering Earth" is 4.6 billion, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to break 5 billion!"

"It's okay. It's already pretty good. It's good to have some regrets. The next step is to strive to break five billion."

"I just can't stand the way Huang Zhonglei behaves."

"... He has been losing money for several years, and he finally has two profitable works, so you can let him be proud of it!"

"..."Youth" is estimated to sell 600 million, and "Strategy of the Ex 3" is estimated to be around 800 million... By the way, have you heard that Huayi is preparing to make "Mobile Phone 2"!"

Shen Changlin was stunned for a moment: "So fast?"

"...What's so fast?"

"It's nothing, don't worry about him...what else is there?"

What's so fast?

Of course it’s time!

Shen Changlin hasn't done much yet, and the cold winter has arrived so soon?

The fuse of "Mobile Phone 2" directly turned the film and television industry, and probably the entertainment industry, into a synonym for stench!

Including the literary and artistic circles!

Who doesn’t know how to say beautiful words? Putting them into action is the meaning.

How many flies in the manure pit are clean?

Bringing it back, Lao Guo continued: "The promotion of "Monster Hunt 2" is very fierce. I heard that 600 million was spent on promotion!"

Indeed, the promotional campaign for "Monster Hunt 2" is truly unprecedented: from the Spring Festival Gala to crossovers with multiple brands to painting walls in rural areas...

The sky-high price of 100 million was used to contract the 60-second advertisement for the countdown to the Spring Festival Gala!

——The trailer will be released in the golden 60 seconds of the countdown to the 2018 CCTV Spring Festival Gala. This is also the first time that CCTV Spring Festival Gala has cooperated with a film producer.

Previously, this prime position has been occupied by large advertising companies with strong financial resources such as automobiles, home appliances, and the Internet.

Shen Changlin didn't take it seriously: "...the more aggressive the publicity is, once the reputation does not meet expectations, what is waiting is verbal criticism..."

"...It's too much of a gamble. "Monster Hunt 2" hired Liang Chaowei..."

"so what?"

"I'm wondering, should we grab this ad?"

"...You can grab it if you want?"

In fact, the release price of "Monster Hunt 2" is not the best among the others. CCTV's choice is probably largely due to the support of the cultural industry by the state media, and it is also an affirmation of the cultural attributes of the film.

The point is that "Monster Hunt 2" is a family-friendly movie...

What about "Chinatown 2"?

Crime + suspense genre, three versions of trailers, one of which is particularly scary!

Will CCTV choose "Chinatown 2"?

Hearing what Shen Changlin said, Lao Guo scratched his head: "It's really not appropriate...then what should we do?"

"Langzao... No, you have to ask me for advice on such a trivial matter as publicity?"

"The Spring Festival schedule is different...and many theaters charge film scheduling fees. Should we pay them?"

"Give them face? Not even a dime..."

"It's not good..."

Shen Changlin was speechless: "Lao Guo, we are the leader. Do you know what a leader is? Just tell me what I said. Not only will we not pay the film arrangement fee, but also the film arrangement of major theaters must not be less than 25%, otherwise, I will

Directly block the key after three days of direct release, and then show it to the Internet platform! I can do it!"
