Chapter 503

The next day.

That is, the day after the 73rd Academy Awards ceremony, the front page headlines of entertainment news media in the United States, of course, are the big winners of this year's Oscars.

"Gladiator", "drug network", "Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon" three films, occupied 13 Oscar winners.

Almost attracted all the traffic!

This is not the first time the cinema side made a statement.

After all, it's all money!

The movie "Gladiator" was released in the United States on May 5, 2000. Eight months later, it was already off the shelves in theaters. At the same time, the DVD of "Gladiator" actually went online in November 2000.

But... Now?

With the title of best picture in the 73rd Academy Awards, it was once again promoted to the cinema, and was screened in 670 theaters at one stroke.

As the film producer, DreamWorks pictures: "winning the 73rd best picture Oscar not only won the honor, but also brought huge economic benefits《 Gladiator's North American box office will increase by tens of millions of dollars, which is quite easy. "

As the distributor of the film, Universal Pictures: "the box office in North America, overseas countries and regions, including the sales of offline DVD and video tapes, is bound to usher in a wave of growth. That's the economic value of Oscars! "

Film "Gladiator" so, the film "drug network" is not much to let!

On December 27, 2000, the movie "drug network" officially landed in all major theaters in the United States. So far, it has achieved a total of $112 million at the box office in North America, and there are less than 220 theaters in North America.

But what about the day after the Oscars?

720 theaters!

That's right. The number of theaters on display has increased by 500 at one stroke!

Many companies in the same industry are dying of jealousy.

"My eyes are red, but I can't help it!"

"Who said no《 "Drug network" film, but won the 73rd Oscar Best Director, best supporting actor, best film editing, best adapted screenplay, a total of four awards

"The reaction of the cinema side was fast enough to adjust the film arrangement at the first time. Tut tut ~"

Jealousy and jealousy are worthless in front of the traffic brought by Oscar!

The head of AMC entertainment, one of the three major theaters in the United States, said in an interview with the media: "it can be predicted that the North American box office of drug network will increase by $800, and there is no problem at all."

Box office?

The increase in box office is certain.

Other related interests of the film will also grow a lot.

The huge economic benefits brought by the Oscars are the core reason why the Oscars are always sought after by many film companies!

The number of cinemas showing gladiator and drug network has soared, and crouching tiger, hidden dragon, the big winner of this year's Oscar, is not to be outdone.

By the eve of the Oscars, "Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon" had already reached $93 million at the box office in North America, becoming the most popular "foreign language film" in American film history.

Kevin Fitch made a statement for the first time: "the first foreign language film in American film history, which has a box office of over 100 million, will be born soon. It is crouching tiger, hidden dragon!"

With the flow of Oscars, the reports from various media, and the efforts of Wald film, which is one of the producers and distributors, the box office growth of films is inevitable.

The first foreign language film in the history of American film with a box office exceeding 100 million

This stunt alone is enough to attract a large number of old American audiences into the cinema.

meanwhile.

California entertainment and Los Angeles entertainment, two influential media newspapers in the entertainment field across the United States, have spared no effort and almost flattered to open a large coverage with the financial support of Wald pictures.

The key content of the report is only Zhuke himself and the movie crouching tiger, hidden dragon.

Best picture Oscar: Gladiator;

Oscar best director's film: drug network;

These two movies are just taken by one stroke!

"Ryder Stanley, the boss of California entertainment, and Andre, the editor in chief of Los Angeles entertainment, were shameless enough to be on the red carpet yesterday, but now it seems that I seriously underestimated their offline status."

Global Times asked its editor in chief, Miyang andeqi, and said to himself contemptuously.

A lot of media colleagues, in fact, are also very envious.

Go away with the media's moral integrity!

"What is integrity and offline? Don't forget, we're just entertainment media. "《 Andre, editor in chief of the Los Angeles entertainment, is smug.

.......

After a week.

The film Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon, which won four Oscars, finally broke through the $100 million box office mark in North America at 2 pm today.

The first foreign language film in the history of American film, whose box office exceeded 100 million, was born.

"Boss, thanks to the gimmicks of the Oscar Awards," Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon "has not only achieved great success in the North American market, but also has a significant adverse growth in the box office of overseas markets such as Europe, Asia and Australia in the near future."

"According to our prediction, when crouching tiger, hidden dragon goes offline, the cumulative global box office will be no less than $200 million."

"15 million dollars in production costs, 17 million dollars in film promotion costs, and 11 million dollars in Oscars operating costs."

"The total cost does not exceed 50 million US dollars, in exchange for less than 200 million US dollars of global box office."

"I have to say that the profit of this film is far beyond our imagination!"

As the president of Wald pictures, Kevin Fitch is full of joy while reporting to Zhuke.

No way, brilliant results!

Pa Pa Pa~

"Well done," he applauded. The crouching tiger, Hidden Dragon brought by Ang Lee makes us make money, so we can't treat him badly. At least we can't default on the director's remuneration and the share of the box office. "

"Don't worry, in terms of economic issues, the reputation of Wald pictures is well-known." Said Kevin Fitch.

Speaking of this topic, Zhuke can't help thinking of Shea, the boss of new line pictures.

Shay, that's a famous death dig.

With the completion of the trilogy of the Lord of the rings, new line film, as the producer, has had a lot of trouble with its director Peter Jackson. Just because it has been in court for several years, new line film's reputation has been ruined.

On the one hand, Zhuke regards money as his life, on the other hand, he is very particular about reputation and honesty.

For the rest of the time~

Zucker and Kevin Fitch talked again about TV and movies, and the appointment of teenage actors aged 12 to 20.

"Boss, young people's Performing Arts Department of Wald pictures, I have completed the establishment, and carried out the first phase of recruitment and training in California and other places."

"It is estimated that the first phase of enrollment will be completed in another 3-5 days."

"In the next three to six months, we will carry out systematic training for these young actors, mainly in acting skills. At the same time, we will package them as idols of youth groups one by one."

"The TV movie" song and dance youth "is already ready to go."

"In the movie" dancing out of my life ", as long as they are qualified, they may also play in it!"

Kevin Fitch talks, and plans come out of his mouth.

"Tut tut ~"

Zhuke can't help but say: "packaged as a youth group idol? Because of this, Disney makes a lot of money every year. "

For Disney's profit in this area, Zhuke is very envious.

"I don't know if there are any future demons I am familiar with in the list of the first phase of recruiting and training young actors?" Zhuke thought.

The second watch is on.
