How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 358 [Jurassic World 1] is here

"Cruise, to be honest, your conditions are not high, but in the current situation, after all, you are going to go to Paramount first, so if we talk about it in detail, I will try my best!"

Zhang Nan's face was full of embarrassment, but in his heart he was already thinking about how to maximize his benefits by eating both ends.

When Tom Cruise heard Zhang Nan's words, he didn't know what he was thinking, but the gratitude on the surface was so full that it almost overflowed.

"Zhang, I know this. As long as we can negotiate a reboot of [Mission: Impossible 3], I can accept any further withdrawals, such as the bottom line."

Hearing Tom Cruise say this, Zhang Nan knew that Tom Cruise was a little anxious.

But after thinking about it for a moment, Zhang Nan also understood why Tom Cruise was anxious.

Because the emergence of the [Mission: Impossible] series can be said to have created a new style of spy films.

The two "Mission: Impossible 1.2" movies put Tom Cruise in the top position of Hollywood, but the subsequent collapse of negotiations with Paramount made "Mission: Impossible 3" difficult to produce.

Then [The Bourne Supremacy 1.2] followed suit, causing Matt Damon to follow the path he opened and move forward bravely, almost leaving him as a pioneer behind.

This summer there is also a movie like "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" with a bit of an alternative spy movie style.

Coupled with the fact that Tom Cruise has had a troubled acting career in recent years, Tom Cruise cannot help but not be anxious.

"I understand the general situation, let's talk about rewards!"

The change in Zhang Nan's voice made Tom Cruise stunned. Seeing this, Zhang Nan joked: "Cruise, you don't want me to help you contact Paramount for nothing, do you? I’ve already contacted Spielberg’s [Minority Report] for a while, and there’s no charge for it, so you shouldn’t let me continue to help you in vain this time!”

Tom Cruise was stunned when he heard this and wanted to say something, but the meaning of Zhang Nan's words was irrefutable.

At last……

People have to bow their heads under the eaves.

Tom Cruise and Zhang Nan have signed a contract. If the filming of "Mission: Impossible 3" is facilitated, Zhang Nan will charge a fixed fee of 5.00% of the film remuneration.

And in the follow-up "Mission: Impossible" series, Tom Cruise's starring share contract will be given priority to Longbow Film and Television Fund for operation.

……

The next day.

5 month 20 day.

It has to be said that the [Star Wars] series has accumulated a reputation since 1977, coupled with its consistent performance.

The release of [Star Wars Episode 3] was very huge.

The scale of screening has reached 115 countries and regions around the world, which is a terrifying range.

On the day of its premiere, [Star Wars: Episode III] broke three box office records——

突破了【指环王3】800万美金的午夜首映票房纪录，突破了【蜘蛛侠2】4040万美金的首映日总票房纪录，突破了【怪物史莱克2】4480万美金的单日票房纪录。

[Star Wars Episode 3] This continuous breaking of past records has caused many Hollywood media to exclaim.

Even an executive within Twentieth Century Fox has had some changes in attitude and wants to change the previously determined strategy of focusing on box office harvesting 20 days before release.

After all, as far as the current momentum of [Star Wars Episode 3] is concerned, the situation is not great, but great.

But it was ultimately rejected by the president of [-]th Century Fox.

Without it.

If [Star Wars Episode 3] can maintain this momentum, then there is no need to adjust. When [Jurassic World 1] is released, just crush it. After all, this plan is already maximizing the power of [Star Wars Episode 3]. The early box office promotion method.

then……

On the first Thursday, [Star Wars: Episode III] grossed US$3 million in North America, US$5001.3 million the next day, US$3352.9 million on Saturday, and US$4069.3 million over the weekend.

In its first four days, [Star Wars: Episode III] grossed US$3 million at the box office in North America in a single week.

The box office performance was explosive.

The box office for the second week was US$9719.5 million, with a decline of 30.00%, which is also impressive.

However, in two weeks in North America, the cumulative box office of "Star Wars: Episode III" exceeded US$2 million, reaching US$2.55 million, and the decline has already begun.However, many box office forecasting agencies in Hollywood still don’t look at the monk’s face and the Buddha’s face. They set the final box office of "Star Wars: Episode III" in North America at 3 million U.S. dollars, and the final global box office at 3 million U.S. dollars.

Put together a somewhat artificially high prediction indicator.

Of course, this is actually not too high.

After all, the North American box office of [Star Wars Episode 3] in the original time and space was as high as 3.8 million, and the global box office was 8.7 million, which is not much different from 4 million and 9 million.

Even if [Star Wars Episode 3] is given a stable enough schedule, it is not impossible to achieve the indicators given by many box office forecasting agencies.

but--

Twentieth Century Fox, as the producer of Star Wars Episode 3, can think so, but Universal Pictures, the producer of Jurassic World 1, will not agree.

and--

Just like Moscow, which is too cold, there are no tears.

The North American summer vacation schedule is too hot, and there has never been a stable schedule - unless you are strong enough to make a name for yourself, you can scare people away and use your strength to create a stable schedule.

But the current "Star Wars Episode 3" obviously has not developed into such a big star yet, and it will take another ten years to develop.

Waiting for 2015's [Star Wars: Episode VII: The Force Awakens], with the expectations of many Star Wars fans for more than ten years, then [Star Wars: Episode VII] will be fully developed and can be released in the summer vacation, so it will be scared off. With one movie, you get a strong presence with a stable schedule - but in 7, [Star Wars: Episode VII] finally chose to be released on the Christmas schedule in December.

Compared with [Star Wars 7], which had to wait ten years to develop successfully.

At this time, behind [Star Wars: Episode III], the upcoming [Jurassic World 3] has become such a big hit.
-
6 month 9 day.

Globe Theater in Hollywood.

The reason why the premiere of "Jurassic World 1" was not held at the Hua Guo Grand Theater this time was mainly due to equipment problems.

Universal Pictures followed Zhang Nan's suggestion and transformed its own Universal Cinemas into 1D theaters in order to increase the box office of "Jurassic World 3".

Of course, there is a lot of trouble in transforming all of this.

After all, a complete renovation would be too expensive.

Many Universal Cinemas movie theaters have multiple large screens, but only one has been renovated.

And Universal Pictures has a lot of theater chains, but there are really not many that carry the name of Universal Cinema, only a small part.

The Universal Theater in Hollywood is the one that Universal Pictures has put the most effort into during this wave of renovations and has the best results.

The day of the premiere.

on the red carpet.

George Lucas came, and when he met Zhang Nan, he even said coquettishly: "I want to see how awesome you are in [Jurassic World 1]."

But although the words were harsh, George Lucas's emotions were full of energy.

Because the box office of [Star Wars: Episode III] has passed its explosive period and entered a stable period.

The release of "Jurassic World 1" will not have any impact on "Star Wars Episode 3".

This time, George Lucas has inherited a little bit of Zhang Nan's affection.

Tom Cruise is here.

Compared to George Lucas' nagging, Tom Cruise didn't say much. He just nodded to Zhang Nan and signaled with his eyes, don't forget what they talked about before about [Mission: Impossible 3]. 】Restart matters.

Zhang Nan naturally shrugged and gave him a Tom Cruise: I'll do the work, you're relieved look.

Then came Will Smith, Roland Emmerich, Nicolas Cage...

In short, basically all Zhang Nan’s relatives and friends in Hollywood came.

The only thing that makes Zhang Nan feel a little regretful is that Chenglong, Wu Baige, Li An and Li Lianlian... these artists with Chinese labels who are familiar with him in Hollywood, because they are currently developing in the mainland, Couldn't show up.
