The Fantasy Entertainment Empire

Chapter 422 The Road to the Top Star (Two in One)

"Night Hunter" has been screened in mainland China for a month, and has achieved a box office of 2.3 billion yuan. At the same time, this movie has also been released in major overseas box office markets.

The North American release time is more than half a month later than the Chinese release. The release time in Europe, Latin America, and other parts of Asia is basically the same as that in North America.

During half a month of screenings, the North American box office grossed more than 50 million U.S. dollars in the first weekend, and then broke through 100 million in half a month, and reached 120 million U.S. dollars; Europe, Latin America, East Asia, etc. A series of Other global markets in China also contributed 80 million US dollars in half a month.

In the global market, the achievement of 200 million US dollars in two weeks is quite good.

In the global market, "Night Hunter" is conservatively estimated to have a screen time of more than eight weeks. At that time, the total box office performance of the entire global market should reach 300 million U.S. dollars.

In this way, including the box office in mainland China, the global box office performance of "Night Hunter" is expected to reach about 750 million.

Compared with "Demacia: Glory", which is more than 1.7 billion US dollars, which is enough to rank in the top five film history, "Night Hunter" is much worse. But anyway, compared to the production cost of about 75 million US dollars, this must be a lot of money.

If the corresponding box office results can be achieved as expected by all parties, it is unlikely to be famous in film history, but during this period of this year, there is still a chance to compete for the top ten seats in the annual global box office.

...

Oona finally got some free time recently, she was too busy before.

This kind of busyness is a feeling of physical and mental exhaustion, which is completely different from the busyness during filming.

When the crew was filming, although it was very hard, it was a kind of dedication. Feel the character with your heart, sink into the heart of the character with your heart, and complete the performance. When she was in the crew, she could almost think of herself as Wei En instead of Oona.

Acting is her hobby, her belief and life, she puts effort and painstaking effort into it, and she doesn't feel it is too painful, but enjoys it.

But in the period before and after the film's release, the kind of busyness is completely different.

During the promotional period of the movie, she, the absolute number one heroine, naturally did her part. Running all kinds of pushing and doing various activities without touching the ground. Most of the time, I sleep in the sky, and I can only take a good rest when I fly. Get off the plane, arrive in a city, and then participate in various activities, and immediately get on the plane again to go to the next city.

Half a month after the film was released, domestic activities subsided a little, but soon, the film will begin to be released in North America. Other markets around the world may not be so important, but the North American market, "Dimension North America" ​​still sent a request to let Wuna participate in some promotional activities.

So, she flew to North America again, joined Eva Green again, and participated in many promotional activities.

The film has achieved fairly good results in the North American market, and the efforts of the two main actors in the promotion cannot be ignored.

After the publicity was over, Wuna returned to the country and finally had a good rest.

After a good week of rest, there were quite a few announcements from the brokerage company. There are some commercial activities in it, which are expensive; there are also some shooting notices for program invitations.

Looking at these announcements, Wu Na felt a little emotional.

A "Night Hunter" brought her a huge boost in popularity.

Before that, her status in the domestic film and television industry was roughly that of a second-tier actress. Although, there have been good works, and many of them have the status of heroines, but firstly, the number of works is still relatively small, and secondly, the works that she starred in are basically the movies of the hero, even if her acting skills are good, in the It is also difficult to come up with a particularly outstanding performance in the movie.

This is limited by the subject matter. What is needed in the movie is a vase heroine. Good acting skills can't stand up to the script of the work, and the editing doesn't take care of it. In this way, no matter how good the film's final score and word-of-mouth are, the greatest glory will still go to the real protagonists in the film, and the relationship with Wu Na is not that big.

But "Night Hunter" is very different.

She is the well-deserved first protagonist in the movie. The whole movie tells the story of the growth and changes of the character Wei En played by her.

After this work, Wu Na not only had her own masterpiece, but also became one of the few domestic actresses who can carry the box office of top-tier productions!

This point can be seen through the notice she received recently.

In the notice sent by the company, the prices of those commercial activities have at least tripled compared to before the movie was released, and even some of the more important activities have directly increased by seven or eight times.

And some program announcements are much more.

In the middle, there are also some tentative invitations for filming.

Now, the film industry must admit that after the great success of "Night Hunter", Wu Na has become a truly attractive actress who can stand alone at the box office. Moreover, her professional level in the movie must also be affirmed.

If you can invite her to shoot a movie at this time, don't say anything, the help you can get in terms of publicity will be quite huge.

After seeing these invitations, Oona also felt a little hesitant.

Before she could think it through, her manager, Dai Weidong, called.

"Did you read the things I sent you?"

"I saw it, but I feel a little unclear."

"Well, let's come to the company later. I have something to do, so I can talk about the future development."

...

Going to Dimension Brokerage, Wu Na met Dai Weidong.

The current Dai Weidong is not what it used to be.

At the beginning, when he was first recruited here, he could only be regarded as a relatively well-known agent in the entertainment industry, and he was not particularly top-notch in the industry of agents.

Then, when he came over, he first took over the management work of Chen Yu, Li Ze and Wu Na. At that time, the three of them were just fledglings.

And now, the three he initially took over have all developed in their own way, and they have all developed very well. At the same time, he himself became the helm of 'Dimension Brokerage', from an ordinary broker to a management team.

The CEO of 'Dimension Brokerage', this status is quite acceptable.

As for the income, it is quite worthy of his status as the executive president. It is not a big problem to earn two million a year and go up.

Now, his main energy is still on the management of the company, and he basically does not directly manage the artist's brokerage. However, for three people like Chen Yu, Li Ze and Wu Na, he still carried them in one hand.

After meeting Una, a secretary came over to pour two glasses of water, and then the two sat and chatted for a while.

They can be regarded as old friends, after all, they have cooperated for so many years.

Later, the topic turned to work.

"Xiao Na." He has always called Wu Na like this, and he is much older. "My opinion is that it is not recommended to have too much exposure in the near future. After the success of "Night Hunter", your reputation will be in the future." It is definitely the biggest among actresses in China, but whether this kind of enthusiasm can really settle down depends on how the road ahead is arranged. Now, there is no shortage of popularity, but maintaining fame is a more important thing."

"So, I suggest that all those business activities should be rejected. Although the income is a lot, it is not the time to look at the money. However, there are still some things that need to be treated a little bit differently. Among these invitations, one is a The endorsement of luxury goods, the company has put in a lot of effort to fight for it before, but there has been no good results. This time they took the initiative to send it up. The situation is reversed, but we don’t have to rush now. What I said before is As the spokesperson for the China region, "Night Hunter" has a good box office performance around the world, and our goal can also be enlarged to see if we can win the endorsement of the global market..."

"As for those shows, I basically pushed them. We don't need to go to those variety shows now, relying on funny and spoofs to gain popularity."

Wu Na listened more seriously, which was directly related to her career. And she can understand what Dai Weidong said. Some activities that will only consume one's reputation and bring no benefits other than money can be pushed as soon as possible. For example, some FMCG advertisements and endorsements, and some consumer-level variety shows, there is absolutely no need to accept them now.

But luxury advertising is another matter.

This kind of endorsement, after receiving it, is of great benefit to the artist, the most important of which is to improve the artist's style.

Dai Weidong's words continued: "In terms of film appointments, we have to be more cautious. However, I personally suggest that you still have to accept some works. According to the arrangement at the group headquarters, "Demacia: Dragon Blood" "You have a filming role, and the sequel of "Night Hunter" is also being planned. Your next work, the most important energy, must still be on the role of 'Vayne'."

"However, we definitely still need to consider the future development. If you don't want to become a series star and be tied to the role of Vayne forever, you must seek some other opportunities. Thinking about these now is better than thinking about it later. Transformation is much easier."

"So, I picked two films here. One is an opportunity from Dimension North America, a female lead in a medium-produced Hollywood film. The salary is average, but the role will be guaranteed. They have taken a fancy to you. Fame in the Chinese market, and at the same time, you also have a certain reputation in the global market that other Chinese stars do not have. The other one is a domestic comedy, and the quality of the film is relatively guaranteed when you cooperate with Xu Zheng."

"These two films are two of the higher quality among all the film contracts. It is a pity that the schedules of the two films have relatively large conflicts and cannot be coordinated. The right to choose is still up to you. "

"Let's go make Xu Zheng's film. Now I feel that I still need to stabilize my domestic image first, and don't have to think about overseas markets for the time being."

"You're still awake."

Oona smiled.

The two chatted for a while, and Wu Na was about to leave.

Before leaving, Dai Weidong mentioned another thing: "By the way, I also accepted a talk show for you. Next week, I may not have time to go with you, but you also have your own assistant team now. The company This way, Xiao Gu will also pass by."

"Well, just send the specific itinerary to the assistant."

"good."

...

The talk show that Dai Weidong mentioned before is an interview with a celebrity, not limited to the entertainment circle, and is relatively well-known in China.

Although not many people watched it, and the show itself was not particularly popular, it was an old show that had been running for many years, and many celebrities had been on it, so it still had some influence.

This is also a program that helps to improve the style, otherwise Dai Weidong would not make a decision for the next one.

A talk show doesn't require too much preparation and doesn't take too much time, and the studio is in Shenghai, which saves the trouble of traveling and traveling

When the time came, Wuna arrived at the scene in a car, accompanied by a team of assistants.

Makeup, preparations, and the recording of the show will start soon.

In the studio, the hostess Lu Yu, who has a big head but a thin body, reads the opening speech on the stage.

"She is a famous actress in China."

"I have starred in many popular works and contributed many wonderful performances."

"She is known as the one with the most development potential among domestic actresses."

"A "Night Hunter" not only achieved excellent box office results, but also made her fame spread from China to the whole world."

"We invite our guest today, Night Hunter Oona!"

Oona steps out of the backstage.

She is dressed very crisply today.

A baggy T-shirt, a black leather jacket, and a pair of ripped jeans.

Simple, crisp, and a little cool-girl.

Walking out of the backstage, she smiled and greeted the audience at the recording site.

This studio is not big, and the audience sitting below may add up to about a hundred people.

But these hundreds of people, when Wu Na appeared on the stage, gave out waves of cheers, mixed with shouts of 'VN, VN', and the momentum was very loud.

Lu Yu was a little surprised.

She hosts the show, and has been for a long time. There are also many celebrities interviewed, and many of them are particularly famous.

But like today, there may really not be many audiences who can have such a big reaction.

She looked at Wu Na, who was standing beside her and greeted the audience with a smile, and silently adjusted her opinion of the actress.

Might have to be treated with more caution.
