Three days in the first weekend, 12.45 million dollars at the box office?
"OK, I see. You can send me the information later. Well, that's it." Jack hung up.
At the moment, Zhuke is half lying on the bed of his villa. Hearing that the box office of fatal bend is good, he is in a good mood.
Meanwhile, Jessica chastan, also lying on the bed, inquired: "is it the box office results of the first weekend of fatal curve?"
"That's right."
Zhuke nodded: "the total box office in three days is 12.45 million US dollars, second only to" bad hearted man "produced by zenith and" Exorcist expert "produced by touchstone, ranking third in this weekend's box office list."
Hearing this, Jessica exclaimed: "there are so many!"
"Oh, of course."
Zucker was elated at the moment.
The box office results of the first weekend of "fatal curve" really exceeded Zhuke's expectation.
Before the release of the film, Victor and Zucker and others judged that the three-day box office of the first weekend was between $6 million and $7 million.
However, because the audience has been tired of seeing supernatural and Exorcism horror films for a long time, it's certainly fresh to see an excellent plasma horror film occasionally; Secondly, most of the films released this weekend are bad films, and the audience naturally chose "fatal curve". Thanks to this, the cinemas also adjusted the film layout and expanded the number of screening of "fatal curve".
Otherwise, with more than 800 screens, how can we reap more than 10 million box office in the first weekend?
"According to what you said, it seems that the score of the film is not bad?" Asked Jessica.
"That's right," Juk nodded. The score of the film on IMDB is 7.5 at present; The popcorn index was 81%; The fresh index of rotten tomatoes was 83%
"That's a good start. Even if the score will drop over time, it won't be less than 7 points." Jessica is beautiful.
"Sure, you don't see who wrote the script?"
For a moment, Zucker was very angry.
No matter what the future results are, thanks to the box office results of "fatal bend", Zhuke can add the title of "gifted screenwriter" to his name in the future.
In the original space-time series, except for the first one, which scored as high as 6.5, none of the subsequent series scored more than 6 points, and one scored lower than the other.
But you, who cares?
As long as the film makes money, the series will continue to be made!
After all, "fatal bend" is a low-cost series. Even if the maximum cost of a single film in the future will not exceed $5 million, why can't it be shot all the time?
"Oh, by the way, Jessica, the Juno movie will be closed soon. What's your next plan?" Asked Zucker.
plan?
Jessica's current choices are just two!
Or continue to be an actor;
Or go back to school.
"I haven't thought about it yet," thought Jessica chastan
Smell speech, Zhuke said: "well, anyway," Juno "has not been released, you have time to continue to consider. However, I still suggest that when you become an actor, you should find a performance college to learn acting skills, which is absolutely not harmful. "
"Well, I'll think about it." Jessica nodded.
It has to be said that Jessica chastan started well because of Juno, which is much higher than her original time and space.
After graduating from college in 1998, she chose Julia college, an art school, to study acting; Then, in 2004, he got a supporting role with lines and started the road of film and television;
It was not until 2011 that the film tree of life became famous.
That year, although she was still bright, she was 34 years old.
The age of 34 is no big deal for Hollywood men, and most of them are at their peak.
However, 34 is not very friendly for women.
Acting as a young heroine, it seems older;
It's too young to play the role of mother;
Therefore, even after becoming famous, Jessica chastan is in a very embarrassing situation in Hollywood.
So in the next few years, she accepted the invitation crazily and made movies crazily. At the peak, she took part in as many as eight films in a row in a short year of 2015.
The title of "model worker sister" also comes from this.
She is famous for her hard work, but the truth is cruel.
She has no good choice!
Just a few years of peak!
"In this life, since you choose to roll the sheets with me, whether it's out of love or interest exchange, I must make you famous as soon as possible." Juke looked at Jessica and thought.
"Why?"
Suddenly, a name appeared in Zhuke's mind.
——Ellen Peggy!
"The trough! My operation seems to have brought down Ellen Peggy ahead of time. "
No, I don't think so.
It's really because hard candy and Juno are both famous works of Ellen Peggy. Now that Zhuke has shot and shown them in advance, isn't Ellen Peggy ruined?
For a moment, Zucker turned his mouth.
Of course, Zucker was soon relieved.
If you don't do it for yourself, heaven will destroy the earth!
Besides, I don't know her. If I rob her, I will.
Can we talk about the crossing?
Ha ha ~!
Now, relieved, Zhuke looks at the naked Jessica again.
"Honey, since we wake up, let's do some exercise."
Please call me jock.
.......
A few days later.
"Fatal bend" benefited from a good reputation, even in the weekdays, also won a good box office.
On Monday, the box office was $2.15 million;
On Tuesday, the box office was $2.03 million;
On Wednesday, the box office was $1.78 million;
On Thursday, the box office was $1.42 million;
The next weekend, three days later, the company reported $6 million again.
"Fatal bend" has been released for 10 days, with a total box office of $25.83 million!
Of course, because the film is a horror film, its first disadvantage is still unavoidable, that is, the box office will quickly decline. The final box office of the film is between $30 million and $32 million. But even so, Zhuke's Wald film industry is also a big profit!
Low cost!
.......
meanwhile.
Richard Kidman's office in Time Warner's Overseas Distribution Department.
Richard Kidman looked at his young assistant and said with a smile, "Rhett, you've seen the box office of fatal bend for ten days."
"Yes, boss. As you might expect, Wald pictures is a film company with unlimited potential. " Red sighs.
He can't help but sigh that his boss is too powerful.
A few months ago, they took the overseas copyright of hard candy with a price of several hundred thousand US dollars higher than the market price and paid 2 million US dollars. They contacted Wald pictures in advance.
Richard Kidman continued: "so we can't just look at the present, we have to look at the long term. Well, well, you don't have to sigh. After a while, you'll contact Wald pictures and strive to win the overseas copyright of fatal bend. "
"OK, I'll do it right away."
Big company is big company, the routine is still so pleasant!
Then they inadvertently deepened the connection between the two companies. With the passage of time, the entanglement between the small companies and the big companies became more intense. Finally, they were acquired by the big companies.
It's impossible to prevent!
Of course, Zhuke doesn't care at all. After all, who let himself go!
