How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 498: Return to the Mainland at the end of June
Mid to late June.

[Iron Man 2] was released in North America for more than 20 days, basically releasing its box office potential.

It has already earned more than 3 million U.S. dollars at the box office.

In terms of global box office, at this time [Iron Man 2] has completely surpassed [Iron Man 5.85] with a box office of 1 million US dollars, reaching [-] million US dollars.

This outstanding box office performance once again proves the box office mascot effect above Zhang Nan's head.

Marvel Studios, which paid a large sum of money to invite Zhang Nan to make a cameo, felt that the money was well spent.

The only thing that makes Marvel Studios feel a little bit uncomfortable is that [Iron Man 2]'s box office performance in the mainland was relatively average.

It only received 1.75 million yuan, which is almost more than 400 million US dollars at the box office.

Not to mention it is compared with the box office of "Transformers 2" of more than 20 billion yuan and more than 3 million US dollars.

Even compared to the box office of "Transformers 1", which was released a few years ago, with a box office of more than [-] billion yuan, there is still an order of magnitude gap.

So secretly, Marvel Studios is starting to brew some new ideas.

But these still need some time to ferment, and Zhang Nan currently has no way of knowing.

……

end of june.

Summit Entertainment has once again brought its masterpiece - [The Twilight Saga 3] to the North American movie market.

As a member of the North American film industry, Hollywood professionals are quite disgusted with the entire "Twilight" series.

but……

What Dingfeng Entertainment is interested in is fandom and fan traffic, and they don't care about these at all.

And fans of [Twilight Saga] in North America are quite generous.

So even the media here in North America are full of all kinds of slanderous reports about [Twilight Saga 3].

But "The Twilight Saga" still took in a single-day box office of 3 million, or nearly 6853.3 million US dollars, on Wednesday, the first day, and it was a working day.

However, fans complained that the movie had a box office failure on the first day and lacked stamina.

This is true.

The day after its release, the single-day box office of "The Twilight Saga" plummeted by more than 3%, with a single-day box office of only US$60.00 million.

However, after two days, it was only three days into the weekend, and the box office of "Twilight Saga 3" began to rise again against the backdrop of the broader market.

US$2815.3 million, US$2342 million, US$1325.8 million.

In the first five days, [The Twilight Saga] directly took in a box office of US$3 million.

Although the box office dropped significantly on the last day, and the film's follow-up momentum is bound to be weak.

But overall, [The Twilight Saga]'s first week box office performance was quite successful.

Without it.

For one thing, the production cost of "The Twilight Saga" was only $3 million.

According to the efforts of the producers and theaters in North America, [The Twilight Saga 3] has already made back its money and made a small profit just by relying on the box office in the first week.

However, the success of [Twilight Saga 3] did not make Summit Entertainment happy for long.

the reason is simple.

There are only four novels in the "Twilight Saga". The third one has been filmed now, and only the finale of the last one is left.

It’s gone as soon as the photo is taken.

Therefore, after Summit Entertainment successfully harvested the movie ticket money from fans in this wave of [Twilight Saga 3], it set its sights on Warner Pictures’ upcoming Christmas release [Harry Potter 7: The Deathly Hallows] superior】.

I want to see whether it is feasible for Warner Pictures to split this movie into two releases.

If possible.Needless to say, [Twilight Saga 4] must also operate in this way.

Because Summit Entertainment usually prepares the next one immediately after one is released, but now Summit Entertainment's preparations for "Twilight Saga 4" have stalled.

……

Early July.

Zhang Nan returned to the mainland from North America.

Along with Zhang Nan, there was also the preparatory working group for [Inception].

Just within a month of Zhang Nan leaving.

Compared with May's "Transformers 2" that dominated the film market, the mainland movie market has become a place where many rookies are pecking at each other.

Xu Zheng's "Unfortunate Journey 1", Li Lianlian's "Ocean Paradise" and Sun Heizi and Haibo Huang's "Battle of Shama Town", and Zhang Nan's weak "Transformers 2" , compete with each other.

But overall, Xu Zheng's "People on the Road 1" is more powerful.

Because Li Lianlian's "Ocean Paradise" is an art film after all.

The comedy style of Sun Heizi and Haibo Huang's "Battle of Shama Town" is a bit too exaggerated, but it doesn't have the feeling of Zhou Xingxing's comedy, and it seems a bit loose.

Then Xu Zheng's "People on the Road 1", which is more in line with the mainland's national conditions, relied on quality to succeed.

Coupled with the channel support of Longbow Distribution, "Embarrassed 1", which has been released for more than half a month, now has a box office of over 8000 million yuan.

If nothing unexpected happens, breaking [-] million should be no problem, but going any further is unlikely.

Because Feng Xiaogang’s [Big Earthquake] has already begun to warm up and is about to land in mid-to-late July.

……

a few days later.

Zhang Nan after a quick break from Xiangjiang.

With exhaustion all over his body, he returned to his office in Longbow Film and Television City and called Hu Ge and Yu Entai.

Compared with Zhou Jie, who is half-retired in the mainland and immersed in farming, Wu Jin, who works from [-] to [-] in Hollywood, Liu Tianwang, who has just hit Hollywood, and Cheng Long, who has made a successful comeback.

Zhang Nan's resources towards Hu Ge and Yu Entai are relatively small.

Of course.

It's not that Zhang Nan didn't give the two of them resources, but that one of them was studying hard and working on acupuncture points, and the other was playing to stretch his crotch.

It's really not easy to send to Hollywood.

So Zhang Nan has always been in a free-range state.

But now that the mainland film and television industry is booming, since the two of them can't go to Hollywood, Zhang Nan plans to let the two of them help him reap a wave of capital that is rushing into the mainland.

So it is very necessary to gild the two people in the mainland film and television industry.

This was also one of the important considerations behind Zhang Nan's previous request for casting rights from Warner Pictures.

"Please free up your schedule for me. The movie will start shooting in August." Zhang Nan pushed the "Inception" project in front of the two of them.

Hu Ge and Yu Entai took the document pushed over by Zhang Nan, briefly looked through the contents, and signed their names neatly.

Produced by Hollywood giant Warner, directed by Christopher Nolan, starring Zhang Nan, there are also guest appearances by Cheng Long, Wu Jin, Zhou Jie and Liu Tianwang.

Not even the top stars in Hollywood would refuse such a project, let alone them.

"Director Zhang, we will study the script carefully." After Hu Ge and Yu Entai signed, they began to express their attitude.

Zhang Nan waved his hand when he heard this and said: "After this movie, coupled with the accumulation over the years, you can be considered to be above the top in the mainland. Now that the mainland's film and television industry is so hot, I hope you can get more movies."
