Entertainment tycoon since 83

With this kind of reaction, the box office will definitely be good.

With 2,500 theaters opening at the same time and it being the Halloween season, horror movies are naturally popular.

Even if due to various reasons such as time, its box office cannot reach the same heights as in the previous life, it should not be difficult to get 70 million.

If only it could break 100 million.

That would be even better.

A horror movie that grossed over $100 million, just imagine how famous "Ocean of Stars" will be in the horror movie industry.

When we launch DVD packages in the future, maybe there will be a Star Ocean horror film series.

If we make a few more horror movies, we can eventually form a horror movie universe.

Just thinking about it makes me happy!

"Get ready for flowers and applause." Huang Ze smiled and patted Zhang Jianya's knee.

"Conquer the American horror film market?" Zhang Jianya laughed and couldn't help but glance at his wife on the right. "How is it?"

"It's quite impressive, isn't it?"

"Hmph, the final box office figures haven't come out yet, don't be happy yet." Zhang Yu snorted, but she was happy in her heart. She felt that this seemed to be a much better choice than what she originally wanted to do, so she immediately added, "You are awesome! You are the best."

"Hey, hey, hey, I don't deserve it." Zhang Jianya waved his hand and pointed at Huang Ze standing beside him.

"I don't deserve it either."

There are thousands of talented people in the world.

Huang Ze knew very well that he was just one of them. Even with the halo of time travel, there were still a group of people who were more powerful than him.

It's not about how much money you make.

"Hahaha, anyway, if this movie can make over 60 million and set a new box office record for me, you and Gong Xian can come to my house with the kids, and I'll let Zhang Yu cook for you."

"Okay, it's settled then!"

……

The premiere is over.

A large number of viewers filled in their own ratings on the questionnaire.

"A, a very good horror film, more restrained than Final Destination, without those bloody scenes, but the horror atmosphere is very well created. I found that I still like this kind of Eastern horror film that gives people psychological pressure."

"B, I've seen the original version of The Ring. The movie that just came out is not bad either, but it's too similar to the original and didn't bring me too many surprises. I can only give it a B."

"B+, I think. Although I prefer horror movies with more ketchup, I have to say this kind of movie is pretty scary and well made."

"B+. It's a pleasant surprise to me. If there were more scenes of broken arms and legs, I would give it an A."

The preliminary score compiled by Warner reached B+.

For a commercial blockbuster, this is a very average rating.

But if it were a horror movie, the box office would be high enough.

After all, most people wouldn't give it an A+ rating no matter how much they like horror movies.

It can get a B+ rating, which makes it a high-quality horror film.

And the box office performance is also quite good!
He got $4 million the day before Halloween, $6.2 million on Halloween which was Friday, $6.5 million on Saturday, and $5.6 million on Sunday.

The total box office in four days was $22.3 million.

More importantly, the box office revenue on the following Monday reached three million.

It doesn't look like the drop is that high.

The weekday revenue is almost maintained at over two million US dollars.

By the next weekend, the box office had reached just over 10 million, a drop of only over 40%.

In eleven days, it grossed more than 42 million U.S. dollars.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Even though this is a horror movie, it is a horror movie with the potential to gross over 100 million yuan!

"I feel that this time, the box office of the movie I star in will exceed 100 million!" Uma Thurman was reminiscing while lying on the bed in the hotel.

I don't know if he was thinking about the battle just now, or thinking about his popularity in Hollywood these days. Many horror movies have already invited him.

Mistress!

This is a treatment that I haven’t enjoyed since “Final Destination 2”.

But she rejected them all.

I also promised Huang Ze to star in a movie.

Besides, if I make another horror movie, wouldn't that shape everyone's opinion of me? They would think I can only make horror movies.

She wants to climb higher!
Try other commercial films first, and if they fail, it won’t be too late to return to horror films to make money and recover the losses.

"Hey, Huang, do you think The Ring can make over 100 million?"

"Didn't you ask me before if I could break 70 million? How come it's already 100 million?"

After teasing the other party, Huang Ze nodded.

"It depends on the situation."

Then he changed the subject, "Of course, as you know, horror movies are a small category in the audience group, which caused the subsequent box office decline to be quite exaggerated."

“It’s possible that we won’t be able to make it.”

"But don't worry, as long as the box office data can break 95 million, it will break 100 million!"

Even if the distribution company buys the movie, it will definitely get 100 million at the box office.

Many companies do this.

If Huang Ze remembered correctly, in the previous year, there were fifteen films with box office revenue of over 100 million US dollars in the North American market.

Among them, there are six films with a budget ranging between 100 million and 110 million US dollars.

The figures following the five films are all below six million.

I don’t know if it was a coincidence or not.

It just happened to be like that.

Everyone is doing this.

"I hope so." Uma Thurman put her hands together and prayed, "If the two movies I star in make over 100 million yuan in a row, wouldn't that mean I'll be on the rise?"

“No need to wait for the box office to come out, just sit tight, it will take off soon!”

……

Zhang Jianya is also a director from the mainland.

Even though it's a horror film that isn't considered high-end in many mainstream film circles, it could potentially gross over $100 million in North America.

This can be said to be the best achievement achieved by domestic directors except Huang Ze.

The key is that everyone in the domestic circle knows it.

It can be said that all the films Zhang Jianya has shot along the way were based on scripts written by Huang Ze.

"Even Zhang Jianya..."

In Beijing, when Brother Chen Kai heard the news, he felt very angry.

Why?
I don't know what level Zhang is at. He can make over 100 million in North America and make it in Hollywood?
Why is it that those who follow Huang Ze either win the Big Three or make over 100 million in North America?
Although he knew that Huang Ze didn't owe him anything, Brother Chen Kai still felt uncomfortable.

Originally, his mentality was still firm.

After all, Huang Ze cannot be considered an ordinary person. He is numb to any achievements.

But Zhang Jianya's move really broke his defense.

If I had been his assistant director and accompanied him in filming "Farewell My Concubine", would I have been able to achieve such success?

"Should I try again?"

Picking up the phone, Brother Chen Kai was in a dilemma.

Looking at the phone, looking at the ceiling, my throat kept moving. (End of this chapter)
