Chapter 301 Three consecutive championships and preparation for financing (please subscribe)

The box office of "The Tomb Raider" and "The Storm 2" continued to decline amid criticism. Although "Three Guns" was guaranteed by Lao Mouzi, the box office still experienced a significant decline the next day.

12 month 11 number.

The Disney animated film "The Princess and the Frog" opened on a large scale in 3434 theaters. At a time when 3D animation is becoming popular, Disney is going retro.

"The Princess and the Frog" is not only a 2D animation, the protagonist princess is also the first black princess in Disney history.

Political correctness is full of attributes.

Moreover, he can also quietly flatter Ao Guanhai.

It's hard not to think about Disney introducing the company's first black princess during the first black president's term.

Disney's political flattery has also led to a large number of black brothers and sisters to donate generously and go to movie theaters to support black princesses.

This week, the number of theaters showing "Source Code" continued to increase by more than 400, bringing the number of theaters open to 3890, covering basically all of North America.

According to the statistics of the survey agency, the attendance rate of "Source Code" in North America during the three days of the weekend was pretty good, although it could not be compared with the previous two weeks.

But compared to other movies, it is still significantly higher.

Even compared to the Disney animated movie, which opened on Friday, it's hard to tell the difference based on just rough statistics.

on Monday.

Weekly box office data for North America is released.

"Source Code" took in $2500 million at the box office, narrowly beating out "The Princess and the Frog" with $2430 million, and won the weekly box office title for the third consecutive week.

(PS: The real figure of "The Princess and the Frog" is 2500 million U.S. dollars. The article only lowers it by a few hundred thousand, because the audience for cartoons and science fiction films are not the same type of people)

"Source Code" conquered three cities in a row. Although it is a bit surprising, it is not incomprehensible.

After all, there were really no big hits during the same period.

"New Moon", the only dark horse at the box office, was avoided by "Source Code" from its absolute strong period.

As of Monday, "Source Code" has grossed $1.43 million at the North American box office.

Look back to the country.

"Source Code" performed equally well, just like North America, achieving three consecutive championships, achieved!

First place: "Source Code", with a single-week box office of 9300 million and a cumulative box office of 3.53 million.

Second place: "Three Guns", 7200 million, 7200 million

Third place: "Assassin's Tomb", 3760 million, 3760 million

Fourth place: "The Storm 2", 3380 million, 3380 million

Fifth place: "2012", 2300 million, 3.6 million

The top five movies accounted for 99% of the box office of the entire market, sucking up almost all the box office. The remaining more than ten movies released during the same period basically became cannon fodder.

The single-week box office of "Mulan" was only a miserable 480 million.

If "The Golden Guard" is released next year and still fails at the box office, Feite Zhao will probably be labeled as a box office poison.

Movie pay will also have to drop a lot.

In fact, Wei Zhentian really didn't like the millions in salary. After inheriting that person's 'legacy', she was not short of money.

The blow to her reputation was what hurt her the most.

Once you wear the title of box office poison, it's not that easy to take it off.

Seeing the box office data for the new week, Feite Zhao even thought about whether he should take a stab at Lu Yuan's villain?

This person and her are naturally at odds with each other!
  By the way, Lu Yuan seems to be very close to Pony Ma. Although the backer she lost is from Pengcheng, she herself has no friendship with Pony Ma.

On the contrary, it was Jack Ma. She was with Master Wang and had met him several times.

The relationship between the two of them is relatively normal at the moment. When they get acquainted with each other in the future, they will find an opportunity to flirt with each other and have a secret relationship.

the other side.

Three weeks after the movie was released, Lu Yuan and Zeng Li were finally able to take a break.

America's widowed sister and director can also take a break. Boss Lu couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling when he thought about the upcoming movie "Xiu Chun Dao" in February.

Publicity is indeed the most intuitive way to boost box office.

The box office of "Source Code" in its third week dropped only 34% from last week.

The road show is indispensable.

Lu Yuan works so hard not only to make money, but also to challenge for the top spot in film history.

The most intuitive impact of the release of "Source Code" is that it sniped "2012". Based on last week's box office trend, the box office of "2012" is at most just over 4 million.

It is possible to surpass "The Founding of a Republic", and it is almost impossible to hit the 2 million box office of "Transformers 4.3".

"Source Code" still has a chance to hit the number one spot in film history.

Although this title of No. [-] only lasts for a month at most, don’t use bean bags as dry food.

Even if it’s just a ‘first’ for one day, it’s still a first!

With or without this title, Star Media’s valuation could differ by hundreds of millions.

Yes.

Lu Yuan is preparing to start the first round of financing for Xingchen Media. The financing time will be around the middle of next year or the end of the year.

In the first round of financing, he expects to release about 10% of the equity. From the financing ratio, it can be seen that the focus of this round of financing is not money.

Lu Yuan is not short of money. Even if his cash flow is insufficient, he can quench his thirst through bank loans.

The main purpose of open financing is for resources, or strategic cooperation.

These things cannot be bought with money.

Today, the box office of "Source Code" in North America and Mainland China is close to US$2 million. If you include the box office in other regions of Asia, Europe, Oceania and other regions next year, as well as subsequent DVD and other copyright income.

The film's cumulative revenue will be between $3 million and $4 million.

Compared with the cost of less than 5000 million, the profit is more than three times.

It's just a movie.

If we include other movies and TV series produced by Xingchen Media, and only in terms of money-making efficiency, leaving aside China Film and Television, Xingchen Media is the undisputed number one.

The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it.

Lu Yuan was worried that he could not withstand the pressure from certain aspects. Recently, he had noticed some discordant voices.

Therefore, opening up financing is just a means to protect yourself.

of course.

Before financing, Lu Yuan will first separate "The Voice" and "Running Man".

In the future, the variety shows produced by the company will be taken over by the new company [Canxing Culture].

There are three shareholders of Canxing Culture, namely old friends Morningstar Fund and Xinghai Fund, and the other one is new friend [Crescent Culture].

The boss behind Crescent Culture is Zeng Li.

This company was Lu Yuan's wedding gift to her.

灿星文化的股权比例是4：3：3，曾梨的新月文化持有4成的股份，两家基金占6成。

Subsequently, the three major shareholders will each take out 5%, and a total of 15% of the options will be distributed to the company's executives and core producer team.

As for the Xingchen Cinema Line, there is no need to forcibly split it up.

After all, in the equity structure of Xingchen Cinemas, Xingchen Media is not the major shareholder to begin with. The real major shareholder is Morningstar Fund.

The second largest shareholder is Xinghai Fund.

Star Media can only be ranked third.

Even if it is not split, Star Media cannot interfere with the operation of the theater chain.
