Chapter 128 Trivia before joining the group
The reason why the lunch broke up was entirely because everyone felt that all these years had been wasted.
A teenager worth hundreds of millions? This is really more popular than people!
Of course, leaving angrily was just a way for them to end the topic. After returning to the courtyard and having a small chat, Roland was still dragged to skydive by them.
Since he hadn't had much contact with it before, the helicopter pilot beca the operator George Lucas kept at ho all the year round, and Harrison Ford, the ace pilot, was tied to Roland and took him at high airspeed. Falling, the feeling of falling, which is more exciting than bungee jumping, made Roland very addicted, and the sense of overriding floating in the sky overlooking the earth made Roland understand why many Hollywood stars like to fly their own planes.
Is it because you have to rush to work like Kobe Bryant?
No, it's because of the feeling of looking down on the common people, it's so cool...
However, no matter how cool he is, he has no plans to buy a plane.
Airplanes are too common, right?
Feeling the charm of the blue sky, Roland is ready to write Musk on the list of his future must invest.
Skydiving?
No!
I want to blow up the rocket! I want to fire the rocket as a firecracker!
...
The celebration banquet will only take one day if it is full.
Big guys basically have projects, and it is impossible to celebrate endlessly.
In addition, Lucas and the others did not arrange a banquet, so after the big guys had an open-air barbecue that night, those who had a schedule set off on their way ho. planes flying around.
Roland was of course the one who left the next day, not only because he had nothing to do, he didn’t have to worry about clothing sales, and Blizzard was busy tinkering with his ga engine, but also because…
He wants to rub Spielberg's private jet!
Okay, pretend to beep for a while, and call the crematorium.
Even if Roland wants to ss with the zoo or blow up rockets, that will be sothing later, and now...
He had to act like a normal person, patted his butt, and got into the old man's plane.
...
After two days of refreshnt, when I co back to Los Angeles, of course I have to return to life.
After entering the second week, although the box office of "Jurassic Park" has dropped, the unrivaled montum of "one man is one man, ten thousand n are not open" is still unstoppable. The 600 million sky-defying result makes the public feel numb, but there is no way, if there is no second movie with the sa effect on the market, the high number will only inject life into the guessing record. , and those new releases...
Sorry, I originally wanted to watch the movie just a week after "Jurassic Park" was released, but all special codes are over!
And the retreat of the peers as if they were fleeing from a disaster made Disney laugh from ear to ear. If it wasn't for fear of causing public anger, they would even want to give Roland a lifeti free mbership card!
As long as it is our Disney site, you can book it!
No way, who can beat Disney in the field of live-action movies these days?
After seeing their colleagues who were originally bullies being beaten to death by the guy who bullied them, the idea that I would be happy to see you worse than is the source of their happiness.
If Roland knows the joy of Disney, he will definitely be even happier!
because…
Marvel, it is impossible for you Disney to take it!
This is really a pleasant thing!
...
Of course, after two consecutive weeks of box office smashes, there are still new movies released in the third week.
But the na of that movie is called "Sleepless in Seattle".
That’s right, isn’t it just ‘one of your own beats your own’!
Other films are afraid to release, but Sony with the Olsen sisters is not afraid!
In "Jurassic Park", they are not as stupid as the children in the original book, they are responsible for advancing the plot, but they cry pear blossoms with rain. I feel sorry for them. After watching the movie, all mother fans Sister fans want to hold them in their arms, rub them into their bodies, and when they are engraved in their bones, the little guy who has attracted a wave of fans by being cute is naturally a box office guarantee.
While lowering the schedule of "Jurassic Park", the North Arican Theater Alliance also increased the number of screenings of "Sleepless in Seattle" to 32. Although there was no premiere ceremony, Sony's announcent did not have the aftermath of Universal It was loud, but the box office on the first day still reached 8 million, and according to the report from the statistics company, the ratio of male and female audiences reached an astonishing seven to four!
What does this an?
Is Tom Hanks a friend of won?
How can it be…
Those audiences who go to eat dog food in pairs are the fans of Hanks and Sister Tian. Those single parties, or mother parties who go to the movies with friends of the sa sex, a large part of them are Austrian fans. Yangou of the Ersen sisters, and with the blessing of these people, the movie box office is the best data for clothing sales. When the box office of 22 million in the first week was freshly released, in the major Wal-Mart supermarkets in Arica, Branded clothing from sisters Rowland and Olsen are also on the shelves.
The sales volu on the first day was as high as 5.2 million!
If there are three hundred and sixty-five days, and every day can explode like this, the flow of water in that year will be 1.898 billion!
And the gross profit of fifty and the net profit of thirty-two that David gave, that's 600 million!
If you co here for decades, you can acquire LVMH, replace Jeff Bezos, and beco the new richest man in the world!
Well, this is thinking about peaches...
The vast majority of guys, that is impulsive consumption, it is the aftermath bonus brought by "Jurassic Park" and "Sleepless in Seattle". After this wave of free publicity is over, the daily sales will drop to 100 It is a normal thing to have less than 10,000 yuan, and the annual net profit, David's estimate is about 100 million to 110 million yuan per year, which is only 11.2 billion yuan, and how much profit is in it? Want to split half with Roland? Even if the manager hired by David has a good eye, he can't figure it out...
However, the benefits of bundling sales are obvious. If a person's clothing sales plumted, Wal-Mart would not imdiately drive the person out of its store. After all, the Olsen sisters' "Full House" It is still being fild, and Roland's movie is a project that all film companies are rushing to bet on.
"This kind of business can be built much faster than our house..."
Looking at the report in front of him, David smiled with emotion.
"Oh, honey, I've told you many tis before that popularity managent is the only way to make money." Ganetti rested his chin on one hand, keeping his gaze focused on her husband's face, "But you Just refuse, tell what you say every day, Mary and Ashley have to go to school, they have to rest, they have to enjoy their childhood..."
"Isn't this right?" Although the report figures are very tempting, David still looked up and asked back.
"Yes! Of course! What you said makes sense!" That still insisted on his own gaze, but Ganetti had seen a lot, so he didn't take it seriously, and said directly according to the other party's intention: "Honey, they are also My children, of course I will take care of their feelings, and isn't it good now? The tutor is giving them lessons, and they go to filming..."
However, before Canetti finished speaking, David interrupted her, "Really? Are you sure it's not because of Roland?"
"The project you recently received was from Robin Williams? Do you think that under normal circumstances people would call to let us know when the project was first established. In the fall of 1994, our daughter had ti to go to Filming?"
The irrefutable rhetorical question made Ganetti smile brighter than Hua'er. She, who was lying on the opposite side, got up now, walked behind her husband, leaned down and lay on his shoulder, "Oh, big Wei, isn't that good?"
“We love Ashley, Mary, Jas, Lizzie, and we love Roland too.”
"Since they are willing to look at Roland's face and give us the project, why don't we accept it?"
“And wouldn’t Ashley and Mary have more ti to study and play when we don’t have to go find projects? We’ll just have to wait for the ti to co and get on set now…”
"I know what you want to say. You want to say that I was eager for quick success before. Yes, I admit that my ideas were indeed radical before Roland beca popular, but I have changed now, so don't hold on to it okay?"
"If you still say the sa thing about next ti, then I'll report to Roland, and I told him that your Uncle David still thinks that Ashley and Mary are too busy, and he wants to divorce ... "
"Oh, No..." When his wife leaned on him and confessed his mistake with soft words, David, who was already lifeless, was quite happy, but when he heard that his wife wanted to make a small report, then Feeling helpless, he imdiately turned around and pulled the other person into his arms, "Ok, I'm just emphasizing a fact that happened in the past, okay?"
"But you did complain to Roland before that we wanted a divorce." Ganetti objected.
"But hasn't this matter been resolved? There is no conflict between the two of us!" David glared at his wife.
"But I'm just emphasizing a fact that happened in the past..." Ganetti repeated her husband's previous words.
Before the words fell, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly cooled down.
Four eyes t, stared for a mont, and they laughed at the sa ti.
David leaned forward, and Garnett threw his arms around his neck.
The unhappiness that happened before is all gone now.
Life is made up of little things, but now, my daughter can not only stabilize her popularity, but also study with peace of mind, and play freely. So what do parents need to argue about this?
The Robin Williams that the Olsen couple ntioned before and the new project that will accept the Olsen sisters is "Ga of the Brave". With the victory of "Jurassic Park", Industrial Light The devil has already started research on "Ga of the Brave", and the little girl who promotes the plot in the movie was eaten by Roland as it should be.
Or, before Roland thought of this, the Jewish gang had already digested it.
And this is actually a very normal thing, they need Roland, and they will not forget what Roland needs.
...
Of course, even if Roland knew that the cake of "Jumanji" was in the hands of the Olsen sisters, he would not be surprised.
No way, he's used to it.
When you think that five of the ten projects on the annual box office list are your own bureaus, what else do you feel?
And when "Jurassic Park" was released for four weeks and earned 250 million at the box office, and "Sleepless in Seattle" was released for two weeks and earned more than 70 million at the box office, Sony released another work by the Jewish gang.
Mr. Dongmu's "Fire Line Sniper".
Roland has almost forgotten the content of the entire movie, but there is one thing that he knows very well.
That is Renee Russell, the heroine in "The Line of Fire", who is Thor's mother in "Thor".
Many people think she is good-looking, and more people think she is a typical example of a model turning into Hollywood, but...
The so-called **** luck was not picked by a famous director at all.
Because of her, she is a classmate of Ron Howard.
Acting as the heroine as soon as she hits the big screen?
Hollywood has never been short of beautiful flesh and blood.
But those pure flesh and blood can't directly cooperate with Dongmu at all.
...
The release of "Fire Line Sniper" ans the arrival of July. According to common sense, Roland should read the script before joining the group, but since he doesn't have to play any roles, the so-called biography and characterization will also be With Hanks teaching along the way, he has nothing to do during this hot vacation.
In addition, fitness and oral English have reached the stage of self-practice and maintenance, so he has a small follower beside him without going to Universal. Elizabeth wants to go to the zoo, so he took the three sisters to the Los Angeles Zoo. Elizabeth Wanting to see Yuyu, he hurriedly took the three sisters to Sea World San Diego. As for Jas?
Roland actually asked him, "Why, you won't go with us?"
"Yes, I want to study, I love to study..." Jas sat at the desk without looking up, staring at the textbook intently.
"Co on! Ollie!" Roland patted the other party's shoulder as a sign of encouragent, then, looking down at the three little lolis beside him, he said helplessly, "Jas wants to study, so the four of us go to Bar."
The three little lolis nodded in confusion, and walked out of the bedroom under Roland's leadership.
Look!
It's not that Roland is reluctant to take him with the money!
It's Jas himself who doesn't want to go!
However, before Roland closed the door, he turned his head impatiently and said, "Can you return the manga to ?"
Hearing these words, Roland, who was particular about speaking with facts, didn't even look back, "I'll talk about it when I co back."
...
As a guy who kept his promise, after taking the three lolis out for a week, he naturally returned the comics to the other party. Of course, this is also related to Jas not letting go of David Fincher's contact information. .
Yes, after he casually said that day, he forgot about him, but David Finch didn't forget him, and when the other party packed up his things and pressed the doorbell of Roland's house in high spirits, Roland went out Picking up the girl, ah, that's not right, he was taken aback by the news of taking the girl out, but when he left, he left his business card behind.
To be honest, Roland has never felt much about movies with dark pictures like "Seven Deadly Sins", especially the saying that people are inherently evil. Well, he always rembers the "Lord moves in mysterious ways" in the opening title.
But compared to that, what impressed him the most was—
Brad Pitt is really handso.
Especially with a gun pointed at Kevin Spacey.
That's right, he is such a 'superficial' person. Although the teacher told the film all kinds of techniques and analyzed the whole film when he was in school, the film is a visual art after all, and the impact of the picture is better than the plot. It is easier to impress people.
Just like Tom Hanks smashing his teeth with ice skates and stones in "The Rest of a Deserted Island", the visual impact is more painful than any narration plot.
But, that doesn't an he hates or likes The Seven.
If "The Wedding Banquet" was intervened to satisfy oneself, then "Seven Deadly Sins" was actually to support Xuanfa.
He clearly rembered that if "Spider-Man" was not fild, they would not have to bear the loss of the distribution company, but once the filming started and the contract was signed, he would have to plug the hole...
So, for Roland, it is more cost-effective to block with movies than real money.
Although he can boast that he is eting the needs of different groups of people...
But that sounds fake.
He respects every movie that can satisfy a certain group, but now it is really considered to plug loopholes.
He lives clearly, so he doesn't have to whitewash the peace.
Because of this, after calling David Fincher to his ho and reading the book, he told the other party very bluntly that he was interested in this story, and if the other party could not find an investor, he could wait. After he got the box office split of "Jurassic Park", he voted for the other party; and after hearing Roland's affirmative answer, David Fincher, who was not at all planning to go to the top seven, nodded imdiately and said: "Okay, then I'm going to find soone..."
The clean answer is the greatest trust in Roland.
This guy didn't even ask Roland how much money he planned to invest, and he didn't even think about telling Roland who his targets were.
Because David Fincher understands that even if Roland is ready to invest, he will hand over the script to Catherine Kennedy and let the other party prepare, and Roland also understands that after David Fincher has determined his goal, his first reaction is Call Kathleen Kennedy, give her the list, and tell her to find soone.
As for why?
It's purely to save trouble.
...
After throwing out the "Seven Deadly Sins" used to plug the loophole, Sony also told him the release ti of "The Wedding Banquet".
"We set it up in August. Since it couldn't pass the review, it was a small-scale regional screening."
"You decide, I don't care about this."
"Oh my god, you've already made money, okay?"
"How much did you earn?"
"Remove what we should take, you have earned more than three million yuan..."
Yes, don’t look at the movie “The Wedding Banquet” with a total box office of 30 million US dollars, surpassing “Jurassic Park” and becoming the movie with the highest investnt return in 1993, but the problem is that the box office does not equal profit.
"Jurassic Park" can be regarded as a share if you make global announcents, but most of the movies like "The Wedding Banquet" are copyright buyouts. For example, if a company in Germany wants to introduce it, it is a one-ti price Not divided.
As for why this happened, it is actually related to the type of film.
For a non-comrcial film, if you lobby various departnts and connect theaters, the labor cost and ti cost may not be as high as that of a small country’s box office after deducting fees, which is purely a net loss.
In this way, it beca a matter of course to sell the copyright and let those local organizations operate.
After all, businessn are all profit-seeking.
To put it bluntly, in this day and age, only those movies that are sold in Arica, they will work hard to make global announcents. Besides, selling copyrights to get quick money is the first choice.
Based on his non-North Arican inco, after the release in North Arica, his final share should be around six or seven million.
Roland understood all these things, so after telling him to rember to pay the money on ti, he wanted to hang up the phone.
However, before he put down the receiver, the other party said: "AngLee is very grateful to you for buying his movie. If possible, he hopes to et you..."
AngLee wants to et him?
sure!
But now...
is not suitable.
"You tell him for that I'm going to film with the crew soon."
"I'm looking forward to his next movie. If he finishes filming, he can co to again, and then we can et."
Note: ① Few of the sumr movies in 1993 had their premiere. "Jurassic" had a huge impact, and the premiere was so hyped that it couldn't be overwheld. ②"Seven Deadly Sins" can only be voted by yourself, because in reality this movie has a bumpy beep: After "Alien 3" hit the street, Fincher and Fox tore up, scolded each other for being stupid, and refused to admit that it was his own work. It also broke out that the filming had to be finished in thirteen weeks, and after that, he saw the book "The Seven Deadly Sins", which could not be sold at all at the ti. Finch liked it, so he got it. Fox's unpleasant experience, he wanted to shoot and edit by himself, but where did he get the final editing rights for a director who just hit the street? The Jewish gang couldn't help him, they all cooperated with the Big Seven, and then Fincher found Oliver Stone, and Oliver Stone introduced Arnold Copelsen (Columbia director) to him, but Sony was I don’t vote for this kind of bad-tempered new director, so I helped him find a new line. Brad Pitt and Oliver Stone are both from the Troma ntioned before. Kevin Spacey and Morgan- Freeman and Chili Pepper all ca to press the new line, but it was torn up after the filming. The people in the new line publicity team couldn't understand his ending, so he made it simple and clear. If he didn't change it, the Jewish gang Big, no change. ③The global publicity and release of low-cost movies like "The Wedding Banquet" is like this. The copyright is sold to big companies, and the big companies act as second-hand dealers and sell them to film companies in various countries. The five are definitely at a loss.
