How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 265 The annual Oscars are here again
It may be that the appearance of "My Big Greek Wedding" has made many small and medium-sized film and television companies that are not the top six in Hollywood feel that spring is coming.

3 month 15 day.

The film and television project [Resident Evil 1] adapted from the game has been released.

Before the release of [Resident Evil 1], an invitation letter was specially sent to Zhang Nan, and it was personally sent by Julia Roberts.

Because the crew of [Resident Evil 1] was able to recruit Julia Roberts, a member of the former Hollywood 2000 million salary club, and Julia Roberts was able to find [Resident Evil 1] as a good resource from the various film appointments, It was Zhang Nan who made the bridge.

However, Zhang Nan just stabbed Julia Roberts who came alone a few times, and did not agree to participate.

One is that he didn't show up in [Resident Evil 1], so it's a bit inappropriate to go directly.

The second is that now that he attends the premiere of any movie, relying on the box office mascot and the name of the world's only movie box office insurer, he can create a lot of heat and add a certain amount of box office appeal to the movie.

Letting him attend the premiere of a certain movie is a project that can only be enjoyed by paying.

[Resident Evil 1] If you want to prostitute for nothing, or if Julia Roberts wants to be prostituted once, it is really a bit taken for granted.

Finally, [Resident Evil 1] won the single-week box office of 1002 million US dollars in North America in the first week of its release, and won the North American single-week box office champion.

only……

Julia Roberts was very dissatisfied with this result, so she called Zhang Nan directly.

"Zhang, [Resident Evil 1] is a 'good' project that you recommended to me. Now that it's doing so well at the box office, do you feel like you're just whoring for nothing?"

Julia Roberts on the phone was a little anxious.

Because of the box office success of "Ocean's Eleven", she has basically reached the threshold of Hollywood's 2000 million salary club again.

In this wave, she still wants to copy the box office success of "Ocean's Eleven", and then directly cross the threshold, and then return to the top.

But the box office performance of [Resident Evil 1] obviously failed its expectations.

"Julia, I'm not God, so there's no way I'm not going to make a mistake and make an eye shot."

Zhang Nan first eased Julia Roberts' emotions with a tone of confession, and then continued: "Besides, the box office in North America in the first week was more than 1000 million US dollars, so the box office of [Resident Evil 1] in North America is almost Four, 5000 million U.S. dollars, and counting the overseas box office excluding North America, this movie’s box office is still stable. A movie with a global box office of more than [-] million U.S. dollars, it-is it not good?

Julia, you need to know that the production fee of [Resident Evil 1] is less than 4000 million US dollars, only 3300 million US dollars, it has basically made a small profit from the box office alone, counting the copyright... What a mess, [Resident Evil 1] is at least a lucrative project.

Moreover, this is a game adaptation movie. There are so many main games, and now the first movie adaptation has a global box office of over [-] million. There is a high probability that a sequel will be made. "

Listening to Zhang Nan's confession of mistakes in the first half, Julia Roberts still thought that this wave should earn some compensation from Zhang Nan.

But after listening to the second half of Zhang Nan's words, Julia Roberts was speechless.

No one can say that a movie with a global box office of more than [-] million U.S. dollars was unsuccessful.

What's more, [Resident Evil 1] is still a small and medium-budget production with a cost of only 3300 million US dollars.

After all, the film and television industry is notoriously a high-risk industry. Many film and television projects have difficulty getting back their capital even if they want to make more than [-] million US dollars in global box office.

More importantly, as Zhang Nan said in the second half of the phone call, [Resident Evil 1] is a series with a high probability of having a sequel, and it is not a one-shot deal.

Having a series of movies on him is a strong guarantee for his acting career, at least he has a chance to stand up and recover blood.

Thinking of these, Julia Roberts was speechless for a long time.

But Zhang Nan heard no reply from Julia Roberts on the phone for a long time, and knew that he had almost persuaded the other party, and then immediately began to stiffen up.

"Why don't you talk anymore? Did you realize that you were making trouble for no reason? This phone call interrupted my rest. You owe me a slobbering meal. It's not too much!" Zhang Nan said with a slightly teasing tone.

Hearing Zhang Nan's request, Julia Roberts on the phone became 'angry'.

It's just a phone call, but it's worth a normal mouth-watering chicken set meal, and it's still hot?

Do I still need my oral health?

"Zhang, don't go too far." Julia Roberts said angrily into the phone.

Zhang Nan didn't rush when he heard the words, and shifted the topic to [Resident Evil 1], and said, "Julia, there is something I need to tell you. It has established a regional film distribution channel throughout Asia!
After two years of continuous training by me, this distribution channel has been established in Asia. The entire Asian box office is 6000 to [-] million US dollars.

你说我要是在亚洲方面卖力的给【生化危机1】搞宣传，能不能把【生化危机1】的全球票房给推到1.5亿美金啊！虽然还是1亿多的票房，但1亿出点头跟1.5亿的区别，还是不小的吧！”

Not only is it not small, it is simply a big difference.

Faced with Zhang Nan's 'threat', Julia Roberts succumbed, "I know."

"Two meals." Zhang Nan pursued the victory and continued while the iron was hot.

Then Julia Roberts on the other end of the phone didn't make a sound, but hung up.

"dududu~"

Hearing the sound of the phone being hung up, Zhang Nan smiled and shook his head, knowing that he had had these two drooling meals.

At this time, the little Jew stuck his head out from under the quilt and asked curiously, "Drool chicken? Julia Roberts also cooks Chinese food? Is it delicious?"

Facing the three repeated questions from the little Jew, Zhang Nan's smile changed a bit, "Actually, you will do it too."

Little Jew: "???"

Facing the puzzled eyes of the little Jew, Zhang Nan pulled Li Jiaxin from the other side over, "Axin, you come to teach the little Jew."
-
2002 3 Month 25 Day.

The 74th Academy Awards ceremony has started again.

As in the past, Zhang Nan has multiple crews to choose from.

[Lord of the Rings 1], [Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone], [Artificial Intelligence], and his own [Neon Martial Arts].

If you want more shots, Zhang Nan's best choice is [Lord of the Rings 1].

After all, for [Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone] and [Artificial Intelligence], the number of nominated awards is too small.

But this wave of "Lord of the Rings 1" has won more than a dozen nominations.

Although [Lord of the Rings 1] only got four or five statuettes with low gold content in the end, it looks a bit anticlimactic.

But... no matter how many awards there are in [Lord of the Rings 1], it has little to do with Zhang Nan.

Therefore, Zhang Nan intends to mix into the [Lord of the Rings 1] team.

But unexpectedly came.

Before Zhang Nan got into the [Lord of the Rings 1] team, he was grabbed by Spielberg.
