Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

v1 Chapter 117: The gateway to the global film world

The role played by Lin Zhiling is the female classmate who is slightly ambiguous with the protagonist Elliott.

In the play, the two characters originally had a direct kiss scene.

but--

Although Henry Thomas, who played Elliott, was only a child, Xu Cun did not hesitate to change the scene into a dislocation.

By the way, in order to film this anatomy class scene, Jeffrey spent a lot of effort to help Xu Cun buy thousands of frogs.

After the filming of this scene, Lin Zhiling's scene in "ET" was finished.

Xu Cun asked a DreamWorks employee who was familiar with Hollywood to take Lin Zhiling's family of three to play in Hollywood for a few days at public expense. After that, Xu Cun personally sent Lin Zhiling and her parents to the airport.

At the time of parting, Lin Zhiling hugged Xu Cun's neck and cried so hard that she didn't want to be separated from Xu Cun at all!

At this moment, a trace of fatherly love appeared in Xu Cun's heart!

However, Xu Cun snuffed out this undeserved affection as soon as it appeared - what he wanted was the number one beauty in Taiwan, not being a father! Besides, even if he really wants to be a father, he can let his woman give birth to him, so why make a fake?

……

On the day Lin Zhiling's family left Hollywood, Jeffrey brought Xu Cun a piece of good news - 20th Century Fox is willing to release "Sister Royal".

Speaking of which, I have to thank Zou Wenhuai for this.

When Zou Wenhuai came to Hollywood, he also brought "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" to Hollywood.

Afterwards, Zou Wenhuai used his connections in Hollywood to find Alan Ryder Jr., the general manager of the 20th Century Fox Film Company, to watch the demo of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao".

Alan Ryder Jr. is not only the general manager of Twentieth Century Fox, he is also the head of Twentieth Century Fox. Ten years ago, when Twentieth Century Fox was in crisis, Alan Ryder Jr. was ordered in a critical situation, and he was promoted from production manager to the helm of the company. He immediately changed his style and set the company's audience to young people, producing "Star Wars" and "Patton". General" and a series of blockbuster films brought Fox back to life.

The kung fu scenes, gunfight scenes, and large-scale stunt scenes in "Lucky Star" all made little Alan Ryder's eyes shine. Although, due to cultural differences, little Alan Ryder is not too interested in the comedy part in "Fu Xing Gao Zhao", but after watching "Fu Xing Gao Zhao", Little Alan Ryder agreed to release "Fu Xing Gao Zhao". Photo", and Alan Ryder Jr. shot a hundred theaters.

During the show.

The advanced shooting techniques and beautiful and mature action scenes of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" brought unexpected joy to American audiences - Hollywood action films, until a large number of Hong Kong martial arts instructors went to Hollywood in the 1990s, their action scenes It is truly pleasing to the eye. At this time, when I first saw a gorgeous Chinese kung fu different from Li Xiaolong, I almost felt the shock of seeing an American watching "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" for the first time or a Chinese watching "Jurassic Park".

Moreover, the fights in "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" can also be counted in Xiangjiang.

Therefore, Mei G audiences are naturally attracted by the gorgeous fights in "Fu Xing Gao Zhao".

There is also a scene of a speeding car in "Lucky Star Gaozhao", and the scene of the fatal speeding car really stunned the audience of the United States.

All of this subverts the usual impression of American audiences on Chinese movies. The Chinese people in the film no longer wear robes and short coats, but live modern people. It is full of modern urban elements and satisfies the curiosity of American G audience about Hong Kong and Japan.

Therefore, although the average attendance rate of "Fu Xing Gaozhao" for the first week of five screenings per day in 100 theaters was only a measly 30%, on the second week, the average attendance rate for the five screenings of 100 theaters per day rose to 50%. By the third week, the average attendance rate of 100 theaters showing five shows a day had risen to 80%.

The 20th Century Fox Film Company saw the good momentum of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao", increased the publicity of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao", and increased the number of theaters showing "Fu Xing Gao Zhao".

By the fourth week, there are already 150 theaters showing "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" five times a day, and the average attendance rate of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" has become a little more than 60%.

This situation continued for two weeks, and then the average attendance rate of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" suddenly plunged, jumping to 35%.

In the seventh week, the average attendance rate of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" dropped below 30%. Before the seventh week ended, "Fu Xing Gaozhao" was finished.

In total, "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" grossed $29.8 million at the North American box office.

Zou Wenhuai's booking with Alan Ryder Jr. is 19% of the box office.

In other words, Golden Harvest and DreamWorks can share a total of US$5.6 million at the North American box office of "Fu Xing Gao Zhao".

After 21 and 5, Xu Cun was able to receive 2.8 million US dollars, which is 21 million Hong Kong dollars when converted into Hong Kong dollars.

This result is quite good, second only to the results achieved by Li Xiaolong's film in the United States.

Little Alan Ryder did not expect an Asian film to achieve such good results~lightnovelpub.net~ Therefore, when he learned that Jeffrey was holding the "Royal Sisters" directed by the same director as "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" , after finding the distribution department at Twentieth Century Fox, he met Jeffrey in person.

After watching the demo of "Sister Royal", little Alan Ryder is a delight!

Compared with "Fu Xing Gao Zhao", which included a lot of funny scenes that Westerners can't understand, "Royal Sister", a purely commercial film, should be more suitable for North American audiences. Little Alan Ryder is even sure that "Sister Royal" will definitely surpass "Lucky Star".

The only thing that little Alan Ryder regrets is that "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" was released first - in this way, the shock brought by "Royal Senior Sister" must be much smaller, otherwise "Royal Senior Sister" will be very exciting. May be the box office dark horse this year.

However, despite this, "Sister Royal" should be enough to make 20th Century Fox a decent income.

Based on this, Alan Ryder Jr also gave DreamWorks 19% of the fixed box office share. Moreover, because "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" has already tested the water, little Alan Ryder arranged for "Royal Sister" to be screened in 200 theaters as soon as he came up.

In addition, Alan Ryder Jr also promised that if the box office of "The Royal Sister" in North America can exceed 40 million US dollars, then 20th Century Fox Film Company will cover the "Royal Sister" in Central and South America and Europe at the market price. issued.

In other words, as long as "The Royal Sister" can earn more than 40 million US dollars at the box office in North America, then Xu Cun may open the door to the global film world with "Fu Xing Gao Zhao" and "The Royal Sister"~www.mtlnovel. com~Welcome all book lovers to come and read.
