How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 100
The reason why Hollywood giants like series films is because the box office of series films still has some rules to follow, and the risks are not as erratic as original films.

However, the box office of [Modu Wuguan] plummeted in the third week, which not only lowered its own box office ceiling, but also lowered the box office expectations of the third film in the series.

But this contract was signed before the box office plummeted.

Let's put it this way, based on the box office data of the first two weeks of [Martial Art Museum], the box office of the third part of the [Martial Art Museum] series is expected to be at the level of 5-7 million.

Based on the minimum of 5 million, if the investment in the third part remains unchanged at 5000 million.

Then according to the contract, Zhang Nan will invest 250 million US dollars, get 1.75 million US dollars in box office dividends, and make a profit of 1.725 million US dollars.

They will invest 4750 million US dollars and get 0.75 million US dollars in box office dividends.

In addition to the profits from the movie peripherals, it is still possible to have a total profit of over [-] million.

Although Zhang Nan took the bulk of the profits from this project in the end, they did not take the small profits.

And Zhang Nan's position in the series is indeed indispensable, so if it is such a result, they can still accept it.

But now it seems that the box office expectation of the third part of the "Wuguan" series is at most around 4 million.

So according to this expectation, Zhang Nan will get 1.4 million, and they will get 6000 million.

And of the 6000 million, there is still a production cost of 4750 million US dollars.

Even with the addition of movie peripherals, it is only a small profit of tens of millions.

But they are also responsible for the promotion of the movie, surrounding operations and other expenses.

In general, it can basically be said that there is no profit.

But the contract has already been signed, and it may be difficult to go back on it. The executives of Disney and [-]th Century Fox can only hold their noses and admit it.
-
Compared to the irritable and distressed Disney and Twentieth Century Fox executives.

Now Zhang Nan is in Hollywood, and it can be said that he is doing well.

Because the box office in the third week of [Modu Martial Arts] has plummeted.

But it has no effect on Zhang Nan's status in Hollywood.

After all, it's not easy for movies these days to break through [-] million at the box office.

With an investment of 5000 million, the global box office broke [-] million in three weeks.

And in the fourth week, the box office of [Modu Martial Arts] did not continue to plunge, but stabilized. The global single-week box office reported 2500 million US dollars, pushing the total box office to 3.55 million US dollars.

It is estimated that it will continue until the end of the painting, and [Modu Wuguan] will eventually have a global box office of nearly 4 million U.S. dollars.

No one can say that such a box office result is a failure.

And this success once again allowed Zhang Nan to stay in Hollywood again, maintaining a 100% probability that as long as a movie with his participation will break through [-] million at the box office and make a lot of money.

Hollywood is very superstitious, plus Zhang Nan's current status and popularity.

This has led to a phenomenon - the number and types of projects that come to Zhang Nan to star in have once again experienced exponential growth.

And not only the starring role, but also many supporting roles were handed over to Zhang Nan.

You must know that with Zhang Nan's current status, let alone a supporting role, the producers behind the starring project with a smaller investment may not dare to give it to Zhang Nan.

And the main reason why these supporting roles dared to hand over to Zhang Nan was that they gave too much, the amount was too generous, and the requirements were too low.

For the movie, the salary is over a million dollars, but Zhang Nan only needs one day, or half a day's schedule.

It can be said that it is a waste of money to treat Zhang Nan as a mascot instead of an actor.

To be honest, Zhang Nan can understand the thoughts of the producers and investors behind these crews.

It's not that they are ignorant and superstitious.

In fact, in the film industry, it would be better if you are superstitious, and you can feel a little bit of comfort in your heart.

But if you are not superstitious, science can't help you much, and it can't relieve your inner pressure.

Because the box office after the movie is released, it is really impossible to calculate it in advance.

And the production cost of a movie can easily be several million, tens of millions of dollars, or even an investment of nearly [-] million dollars, which is not uncommon in Hollywood now.

With this level of investment, even Hollywood giants will go bankrupt within a few times of losses. Before the film is released, even if the investor is a Hollywood giant, the person in charge is still in suspense.

If you can spend a million to buy some comfort, no one will be unwilling.

We must know that when many entrepreneurs are working on new projects, they will go to the master for fortune-telling.

They are all called entrepreneurs. Can they not know that superstition is unscientific?
Just looking for comfort.

It is also the same idea that these crews hired Zhang Nan.

And Zhang Nan is different from the master.

Gurus are just pure metaphysics.

But Zhang Nan is not only superstitious, he also has a lot of fame and traffic, which really has an effect on the movie box office.

However, the one-day salary of one million dollars is very attractive.

But for the already worth billions of dollars.

It even appeared on the books that Zhang Nanlai had a gold balance worth more than 20 tons.

A daily salary of one million US dollars is really limited.

Most of the film appointments were pushed by Zhang Nan, and only a few major directors were selected to invite guest appearances.

Such as Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan", George Lucas's "Star Wars Episode One".

The purpose is not for the million-dollar daily salary.

It's about taking advantage of the box office of these two, and at the same time establishing friendship with these two great directors, so that they can use the box office and discuss cooperation in the future.

Especially George Lucas.

At the [Star Wars] series box office, Zhang Nan missed the first three movies, but he was very greedy for the next few movies.
-
end of september.

[Magic City Martial Arts] was withdrawn due to the continuous weakening of the box office, but the cumulative global box office has reached [-] million.

[-] million box office points were invested, and now it has returned intact.

Put Zhang Nan lying on the sofa in the living room of Hollywood Dabieye.

Looking at the value on the gold finger that increased and decreased almost unchanged, I was speechless, and felt Wang Duoyu's helpless feeling.

"I can't finish the flowers, I really can't finish the flowers." Zhang Nanchang sighed.

As a result, just after he finished sighing, he heard the door being pushed open, and Old Luke's voice came, "Zhang, what can't be spent?"

Zhang Nan: "..." How come your ears are good and bad.

At the beginning of September, the old Luke finished the cooperation between the Longbow special effects and the mainland universities, and then returned to Hollywood.

Recently, I have been helping him deal with the contract of "I'm Crazy About Mary".

Because although Zhang Nan has agreed to act, the specific remuneration still needs to be discussed.

Although the relationship between Zhang Nan and Cameron Diaz is not shallow, both emotionally and physically, especially physically, it can be regarded as a deep friendship.

But the brothers all know how to settle accounts, and the interests of cooperation cannot be careless.

"How are the terms going?" Zhang Nan asked, changing the subject.

Old Luke didn't take Zhang Nan's self-talk seriously. After hearing the words, he directly took out a contract from his bag and said, "It's still a basic salary of 100 million US dollars, but I've talked to you about the total box office dividend. 30.00%."

Zhang Nan frowned after hearing this.

He really didn't expect that old Luke could talk to [-]th Century Fox about the box office dividend ratio to this extent.

Yes, the producer of "Mad Mary" is Twentieth Century Fox.
