At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 696 11 million in [-] days

In fact, Huayi should be the one who is most upset with Tianmei Company!
As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

As a bridgehead in the Beijing circle, Tianmei Company is developing too fast...

In three years, Huayi was directly overtaken. Except for the inferior background, other aspects were beaten...

But in the entertainment industry, the most useless thing is actually the so-called background...

Especially overseas, after Tianmei acquired Golden Harvest, it directly has distribution channels in Southeast Asia. In the United States, Shen Xudong also has a wonderful studio, and has cooperative relations with Lionsgate and Warner.

Now it has reached a cooperation with South Korea's CJ Group...

This thing, you can't even copy the route!
Of course, at this stage, Huayi has not fallen behind, at least in China...

Last year's annual box office champion movie "Mobile Phone 2" was produced by Huayi and was responsible for publicity and distribution; this year there is "Kung Fu King"...

"The King of Kung Fu" has a good reputation, but the market performance is not bad, with a domestic box office of 1.82 million and a global box office of 1.26 million.

As for the total investment... Anyway, according to Li Lianlian's words, "The global box office has exceeded 5000 million US dollars, and the sequel will start."

In other words-as long as the box office gets 5000 million, the project can be guaranteed to be profitable.

Oh, "Yangtze River No. [-]" is co-produced by Bona, and is in charge of distribution in the Mainland...

I thought "The King of Kung Fu" would be able to overwhelm Tianmei, and it did. The box office of "The King of Kung Fu" just surpassed that of "On the Journey" and "Zhao Zilong 2"...

In addition, "Love Has an Afterlife" and "Southern Star" failed at the box office...

Especially "Southern Star Guest", which was in the same schedule as "The King of Kung Fu", was suppressed by the latter and couldn't breathe!

Yes, the two sides are not of the same type at all, and the star lineup and investment scale are not of the same order at all...

But who cares?
I only know that it was suppressed at the box office!

Then, "Back to 20" was released, with 8200 million in the first weekend, which surpassed "The King of Kung Fu" and even higher than the first-week box office of many high-profile blockbusters in the Lunar New Year file.

Hua Yi is embarrassed...

Now is the critical moment for Huayi to seek listing, and it is very important to become a leader in the mainland!

The so-called faucet cannot be achieved by bragging, you have to have real materials.

When doing statistics, I deliberately avoided "Cao Cao" and didn't talk about it...

How to do it?

What can I do, congratulations!

then…

Since Shen Xudong can cooperate with CJ Media, so can Hua Yi. Huang Zhonglei proposed to introduce the works of CJ Media and bought the mainland distribution rights of "Good Guys, Bad Guys, Weird Guys"...

Jointly invested in the production of two films starring Jang Dong Gun, "Warrior of the Yellow Sand" and "The Day of Landing"...

Real money investment.

In just one week, a lot of things were decided, and even a press conference was held...

Thinking about overwhelming the sky.

It's a pity that no one cares - the Olympics are only two months away, who cares what the entertainment companies do?
Besides, "Back to 20" was released for 4 days, and the box office exceeded 11 million, and it was released for [-] days, and the box office exceeded [-] million...

Right now, the single daily income is still above [-] million.

The theater even raised the box office forecast of "Back to 20", giving a final box office forecast of 3.2 million...

Also, "The Cloverfield Files" grossed $4200 million in the first weekend, continuing to write the wonderful studio's strong original ability...

Both news, which one is more worthy of reporting than the cooperation between Huayi and CJ!

Oh, "The Cloverfield Files" is a pseudo-documentary film about monsters attacking the earth and the end of the human race with a cost of 2500 million US dollars as the producer...

……

"This is the script we received. I think it's very interesting. In the form of a pseudo-documentary, the disaster is shown through DV, which makes people feel immersive..."

"The screenwriter Drew Godou is very capable, so we bought the script and invited him to direct another movie "See the Devil"..."

"Drew Goddard is one of the screenwriters of the American drama "Lost", and he has a good relationship with J.J. Abrams... "The Cloverfield Files" is also co-produced by us and Bad Robot..."

"Oh, Bad Robot is J.J. Abrams' production company, we each pay half, Paramount distributes..."

In the restaurant, in the box, Shen Xudong is telling Zhong Lifang about the situation of "The Cloverfield Files"...

Zhong Lifang was aggrieved - Jiahe was not in the production company of "The Cloverfield Files"!

"You should also consider Golden Harvest...you will direct "Iron Man" and "Raiders of the Lost Ark 4" to dominate the Hong Kong market one after another..."

"Wait a minute? Iron Man? That's..."

""Iron Man", the mainland translation is called "Iron Man""

Shen Xudong couldn't hold back, he burst out laughing...

Iron Man... This translation is too stupid. I laughed and asked: "Then how do you translate The Incredible Hulk in Hong Kong?"

"Transformer doctor..."

"…puff…"

"What's wrong with "Transformer Doctor"? Is Hulk a doctor? Can he transform without dying?"

"Hulk is a doctor. Although they are both Doctors, they are different..."

Zhong Lifang was speechless: "I'm telling you the truth!"

"Let me tell you the truth, investing in "Cloverfield" was not the purpose at all, our purpose was to hook up with J.J. George Lucas has a good relationship...We don't want to be on the fringes, we want to be mainstream!"

"...You want to cooperate with Spielberg? Spielberg's own dream factory can't even survive..."

Shen Xudong waved his hand: "It's okay, the business can't go on anymore, and many local tyrants in the mainland want to take over!"

While talking, the door of the box opened, and Chen Xi, Yu Feihong, and Tang Yan walked in.

Today is a small celebration, "Back to 20" broke [-] million...

Shen Xudong is going to the United States the day after tomorrow, so he helped celebrate in advance.

The Twilight Saga is coming!
"...The box office performance of "Back to 20" in Hong Kong is quite satisfactory, ranking second in the box office for two consecutive weeks, second to "Magic Kingdom", with a cumulative box office of 698 million Hong Kong dollars..."

""Magic Kingdom"?"

Chen Xi explained: "The Chronicles of Narnia 2..."

"Not bad, it shows that Hong Kong audiences are still willing to watch Chinese films..."

"The quality passes the test, and I'm sure I'd like to watch it."

"There is still a difference. The domestic box office of "Back to 20" has already exceeded [-] million!"

"I heard that the Korean version of "Back to 20" has broken 600 million viewers?"

Zhong Lifang was curious: "How much box office is that?"

"It's very simple. Multiply the ticket price. The ticket price of a Korean movie is fixed, which is 8000 won (about 40 yuan)... about 5 dollars..."

"Then why do you need to count the number of moviegoers? Can't you just use the box office to count?"

Chen Xi explained: "It seems to be for comparison with the past, and there is no need to count inflation when counting the number of moviegoers."

"Take off your pants and fart, it's unnecessary!"

"People are used to doing this!"

Zhong Lifang remembered something, and lowered her voice: "...I heard that Koreans are used to entertaining guests with female stars..."

"Ask Shen Xudong about this, he ran to Seoul last year if he had nothing to do!"

Shen Xudong corrected: "That's Seoul!"

"... Is there such a thing?"

"You know how to spread rumors about me all the time. I only went to South Korea twice in the whole of last year, and they were all to discuss business."

"Who spread rumors about you? I'm not here to answer questions for Sister Zhong. You are the only one of us who is familiar with South Korea... don't ask who you ask?"
