August 1.
On this day, Zhuke successfully took a day off for himself.
But even so, Zucker didn't have time.
"Boss, this is the business report of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group in the first half of the year. Well, there are many documents that need your signature."
Alexander, director of the president's office and chief assistant to the chairman of Jin Shuguang entertainment group, came to Zhuke's villa early in the morning.
“Oh! NO~!”
With a despairing slap on the forehead, Zhuke immediately collapsed in the sofa.
"My rare holiday is ruined by you, Alexander." Zucker was full of bitterness.
Alexander said with a smile: "boss, you should understand that entrepreneurs don't have a real vacation!"
What can Zhuke do?
He's desperate!
With the development and growth of the enterprise to the present height, this huge ship is no longer what Zhuke wants to stop. Thousands of employees of the whole golden dawn entertainment group are eating with Zhuke. They can't make the company stagnate. Even if he didn't want to move, others would push him forward.
"Come on, come on, I'll fight for it too!"
Zucker reluctantly took over a thick stack of documents and began to read them.
First of all, we can see the business statements of the subsidiaries of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group in the first half of the year.
Wald pictures:
As an important part of Golden Dawn entertainment group, it occupies a crucial position in the group.
From the beginning of January this year to the end of July this year, it took nearly eight months.
Wald film has produced and released three films: "My grand Greek Wedding", "Spartan 300 warriors" and "the witch Blair"; Of course, it also undertakes the films of other film and television companies and distributes them. There are as many as seven films in this part.
"My grand Greek Wedding": the box office in North America was 259 million US dollars, the overseas market was 138 million US dollars, and the global cumulative box office was 397 million US dollars;
Moreover, the film broke the box office record of romantic love movies in North America.
"Sparta 300 warriors": won 210 million US dollars in North American box office; The box office in overseas markets is even more impressive, with a total of 207 million US dollars.
Global box office: 417 million US dollars.
At present, there are still a small number of cinemas in North America showing in the long term, and it is estimated that they can still earn millions of dollars at the box office.
"Boss, with the box office revenue of these two films alone, our performance in the first half of the year was higher than that of the second tier top DreamWorks."
Alexander said with a smile: "of course, if you add in the revenue of" the witch Blair ", even compared with the six, it's not too bad."
Zucker nodded.
Immediately, I opened the income statement of the witch Blair.
As of June 30, "the witch Blair" has already made us $140 million in North America and US $56 million overseas, with a total global box office of nearly US $200 million.
The lowest cost movie ever made at $60000 has really surprised many people.
"The domestic and foreign box office of only three films is as high as US $430 million."
As for the other seven films, they are produced by other films and distributed by Wald pictures, taking 9% - 15% of the North American box office revenue.
The overall profit is also considerable.
There are tens of millions of dollars in profits.
Although this profit is insignificant compared with the profits of the six major issuers, it is 42% higher than the profits of the same period last year.
This is progress.
The revenue of offline market and that of Wald film also increased a lot compared with the same period last year.
The DVD and video market, as well as the surrounding games, costumes, portrait rights, dolls, books and so on, are all profitable.
In the box office market, excluding various film costs, publicity expenses, cinema line sharing, material expenses such as copying, taxes and so on, Wald pictures made a total net profit of 240 million US dollars in the first half of this year.
Of course, if we add in the profits of the surrounding areas and copyright operation, the overall net profit will exceed 320 million US dollars.
"Boss, this $320 million is the result of pure profit. Compared with the second half of this year, the company will no longer worry about the lack of cash. " Alexander laughed.
"Ha ha!"
"It's too early to mention that," Chuck said. You don't know the urination of the cinema. If we don't delay for a few months, can we expect all the profits to be recorded? It would be nice to have the second batch and the second batch of box office split up. "
Alexandre: --
All right, Junker's a loser now. He's just cheap and good.
It's true that the film and television market is to make money, but as Zhuke said, film is an investment with high risk, high return and long payback cycle.
Had it not been for Zhuke, Wald pictures would not have made such a high profit in the first half of this year.
In the first half of this year, Wald pictures was indeed a big hit.
"Where is that?"
"Laozi is waiting for the release of" Nemo ". Once it is released, even if it can't break the monopoly of Pixar and DreamWorks on 3D computer animation, it is bound to make water world animation company occupy a place in the animation field."
In addition to the strong performance of Wald pictures, other subsidiaries of Golden Dawn entertainment group are also outstanding.
Compared with the same period last year, the overall revenue of TV group, Jin Shuguang music, water world animation, SpongeBob house, Jin Shuguang publishing, andema sporting goods company and Manchester City Club also increased correspondingly.
Especially the TV group, the performance is extremely amazing!
Under its jurisdiction, UPN, which ranks third in the limited payment field in the United States, and WB, which ranks eighth in the public television field in the United States.
In the "prison break", "walking dead", "Big Bang", "sisters in bankruptcy" and other TV series hit;
"Talent show", "millionaire", "WWE real Wrestling Entertainment", "I'm a celebrity" and other popular variety shows;
In addition, it has won the strong support of more than 3000 films from Wald film library, attracting a large audience.
In the first half of this year, Jin Shuguang TV Group's turnover exceeded 3.2 billion US dollars and its profit reached 510 million US dollars.
This performance, in the field of American television, ranks seventh, next only to ABC, fox, NBC, CBS, paramount online and Comcast.
This achievement is really impressive. After all, which of the other six TV groups has decades of history, has been working hard for a long time, and has a very wide coverage.
There is still a big gap in the size of Jin Shuguang TV group.
But even so, Zhuke's name of "little TV emperor" is completely recognized!
.......
August 3.
With one day to go before the premiere of "Nemo" and three days to go before the film officially opens in the United States, Zhuke came to McAfee.
