Hollywood Starts with Animation

"Hollywood Begins with Animation Novel()" Find the latest chapter!

In the following days, for two consecutive days, two media, led by the "Los Angeles Entertainment News" and "California Entertainment News", launched a series of special reports.

The protagonist of the report is naturally Zhu Ke!

The reports of the two dog-licking media once again made Zucker's reputation a step further.

Wald Pictures.

"Tsk tsk tsk~"

Zucker put down a few newspapers in his hand and said with admiration: "The Los Angeles Entertainment News and the California Entertainment News are too good, I just won a Golden Lion Award, and the Golden Lion Award is in North America. The internal influence is not very big, but when it comes to their mouths, hoho~ good guy, I won the Nobel Prize."

Kevin Feige, president of Wald Pictures, immediately laughed: "Boss, Steven Soderbergh, who won the Oscar for Best Director in March this year, can't keep up with your majesty."

Gavin O'Connor, director of production at Wald Pictures, echoed: "That guy Steven, what does he compare to the boss? I think the media is right, "Boom Drummer" is a very good movie. Excellent movie."

Disgusted by the touts of the media?

of course not!

Without the touts and cheers of media such as the "Los Angeles Entertainment News" and "California Entertainment News", how can Zucker's ability be revealed?

Moreover, the large-scale exposure is also conducive to the box office performance of "Boom Drummer".

Generally speaking, films that have won the Golden Lion Award can often sell for a good price when selling film and television copyrights in various countries and regions.

Selling in several countries in Europe, selling in several countries and regions in Asia...

It doesn't take much, anyone can sell hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in a country, and even a small country in Southeast Asia can sell for tens of thousands of dollars.

All in all, it's not a small amount.

In the original time and space, "Boom Drummer" participated in the Cannes Film Festival and won the Grand Jury Award. It is a regular hand-selling operation in selling film and television copyrights in various countries and regions. Before the final film was released, it sold for 17 million US dollars. copyright fee.

Director Damien Chazelle,

Great profit.

However......

In the current time and space, will Zucker, a Hollywood boss, sell copyrights?

Just kidding!

Don't forget that Wald Pictures under Zucker's name is a company with perfect distribution channels around the world after Hollywood's Big Six.

"The Burst Drummer movie, Wald Pictures itself can be distributed worldwide, why sell it to someone else?"

In the next time, the three of Zucker talked about other things.

dong dong dong~

At this moment, A.C. Tudor, director of the announcement of Wald Pictures, walked in.

"Mr. Wald, are you there too?" Tudor was slightly surprised.

Then, he began to explain his intentions.

"Mr. Feige, this is the release schedule of the film in September and October, and you need to check again." Tudor said.

After Kevin Feige took it, he glanced at it and signed it for approval.

In fact, this is just the form of walking.

For the films produced by Wald Pictures, in the script review, film project approval, film shooting stage, finalization, test screening, release date...

Every aspect of film production, Kevin Feige, as the leader, dare not say it, but he is absolutely very clear.

[On September 15, the movie "Rage" was released. 】

The movie starring Jason Statham and Jessica Chastain, with a total production cost of $11 million, is a hot action movie;

"Although it can only be regarded as a small and medium-budget movie, I am optimistic about its box office potential."

This is the slogan issued by Kevin Feige.

At the same time, Kevin Feige is also very optimistic about Jason Statham and intends to continue cooperation in the future.

Gavin O'Connor said: "Boss, I'm the producer of 'Rage', and I don't think its box office performance in the North American market will be less than $50 million, and we should be able to make a small profit."

"..."

Zucker's mouth twitched.

"Huh? Boss, are you not optimistic about the box office expectations of "Rage"?"

Gavin O'Connor asked.

Kevin Feige followed up and said: "I think the movie is good~ Whether it is the performance of the actors, or the director's grasp of the camera, including the editing stage, it is a very aggressive style, and it will not have the possibility of hitting the street. "

Zucker: "..."

How does Zhu Ke answer this?

In the original time and space, the movie "Rage" was released in 2006 and was produced by Lionsgate Pictures. After its release, it achieved a box office of 42 million US dollars in North America.

Overseas box office is also good, more than 40 million US dollars;

In particular, the offline market of DVD and videotape has brought quite a good report to the producer Lionsgate.

On the whole, "Rage" is a profitable movie.

Zucker never denied that it wasn't a good movie.

However......

The release date chosen now is not good! ! !

September 15th movie release?

It's only been a few days since 9/11!

You are now showing such a bloody action movie, aren't you killing yourself!

Looking at the 2001 North American annual box office charts, none of the top 20 films were released in September or October.

Coinciding with the 9/11 incident, 90% of the movies released in September and October are on the street!

The film with the best score was Warner's "Training Day", starring Hollywood stars Ethan Hawke and Denzel Washington, which earned more than $70 million at the North American box office.

But......

The production cost of the film is more than 80 million US dollars, and the publicity cost is not less than 30 million US dollars.

Undoubtedly, the producer has lost blood.

Universal Pictures' "One Thought", Miramax Pictures' "A Special Love", Paramount Pictures' "Family Murderer", "Zurland"...

Including Li Lianjie's role in the movie "Cosmic Wanted", this is the first time he has played the leading role in a Hollywood movie and received a salary of more than 12 million US dollars, but the movie also hit the street.

Of these movies that were released in September and October, one of them counted as one, and without exception, they all lost money!

"Boss, the schedule in September this year, I think it's pretty good."

Gavin O'Connor said.

Classmate Zhu Ke has a black line, but he can't say anything. Do you want to tell them, man, 911 is coming?

Isn't this looking for something for yourself? !

......

The movie "The Fast and the Furious" is scheduled to be released on September 29.

Classmate Zhu Ke's expression turned gloomy again.

......

"Death is Coming 2" is scheduled to be released on October 20;

......

At this moment, after watching the release report, Zhu Ke had only one thought in his mind, and that was to immediately tear the report into pieces, and threw it on the ground and kicked it a few times.

Which genius came up with the release schedule?

Afraid that life at Wald Pictures is too good?

Withdraw!

Must withdraw immediately!

Otherwise, the performance of Wald Pictures in the second half of this year is bound to be quite ugly.

" "The first more is sent.
