Chapter 247

Warner CEO Jeff bicks was delighted.

Henry then said with a smile, "it happens that I have a script here that I want to shoot. If you want to, you can invest it!"

When they heard this, their hearts moved.

Jeff Bix first asked, "Oh, what kind of script?"

Henry laughed and said, "it's a shipwreck. A big ship hit a glacier and then sank... Huh? The investment budget is about $200 million! "

"200 million dollars, that's so much!"?!! Oh, Mr. Williams, does that include publicity? " Asked Jeff Bix in surprise.

"Not included,"

Henry said, "it's just that the cost of production costs 200 million dollars, maybe more, maybe 300 million dollars... You know, the works of Galaxy movies must be excellent!"

"How much is the production cost of Jurassic Park?" Jeff bikes asked curiously

"About 120 million dollars..." Henry thought.

As soon as Henry finished speaking, everyone was silent. The investment of this film is so much more than Jurassic Park. In the end, it may not even get the capital back《 The reason why Jurassic Park is successful, in their view, is that the theme has a great advantage.

People are curious about dinosaurs, so they are willing to pay for them. If they change to other subjects, they may not succeed!

Shipwreck movies appear frequently in American movies, and the theme is not new

"Well, are you willing to invest?" Henry asked faintly.

"Mr. Williams, which director are you going to invite to make this film?" asked longmeyer, CEO of universal

"James Cameron!"

Henry said with a smile, "James Cameron once made Terminator 2 for Galaxy film company, and I really approve of his ability! I think it's the best choice for him to direct this film! "

"Well, James Cameron is a good choice indeed!" Adam Ferguson nodded.

Henry joked: "yes, he is a good money spender. This film just needs a director who will spend money to make it! What's up? Do you have a plan? It's a rare opportunity, I tell you! "

They all laughed awkwardly, "Mr. Williams, it's too risky to invest $200 million or $300 million!"

"High risk, high return!" Henry shrugged and said, "if you don't want to, forget it. Galaxy film company will invest in shooting alone!"

In fact, Henry also knows that they will not invest. After all, it's crazy to invest so $200 million or $300 million to make a movie! However, after the movie "Titanic" was released, it's time for them to be envious again. The box office is close to two billion dollars, which is almost crazy!

Henry quietly smile, holding up a glass of red wine slowly taste up!

Compared with the six major Hollywood film companies, Galaxy film company is far from enough. Therefore, the time for Henry to acquire Time Warner is not very good! After the reception, Henry and kellina stayed in the Chinese Theater for one night. This evening, Henry is thinking about speeding up the development of Galaxy film company. In the past, the number of films produced by Galaxy film company was very small, and the film copyright library was seriously insufficient. But fortunately, the distribution capacity of Galaxy films has increased a lot during this period. Needless to say, there are IMDB cinemas in the United States, and there are no problems in distribution. Many film companies come to the door to seek distribution. It is commendable that galaxy film company has also made rapid progress in overseas distribution capacity, and has established good cooperative relations with film distribution companies all over the world!

In the future, movies may be released all over the world!

Henry is pleased with the development of Galaxy film company, but this time, Henry decided to invest in making multiple films a year at the same time, so that galaxy film company can become a Hollywood film giant as soon as possible! What kind of movie is not only a hit, but also has a good reputation and can be shot with the current technology?

Henry thought about it and came up with a lot of movies!

James Cameron is shooting "true lies" now. I'm afraid he can't shoot "Titanic" for the time being. Henry has decided to make another film next year. At present, he can make other films first. Then, Henry first came up with four movies!

The first is Forrest Gump, which was released in 1994. In 1995, it won six awards, including the best picture award, best actor award and best director award. The global box office is 670 million US dollars and the production cost is 55 million US dollars! If you don't hurry up, you will be shot by other companies!

The second is Shawshank Redemption, which was released in 1994 and won seven nominations at the Academy Awards. Although the box office is not high, it is a great success in the home theater market and rental market! Just like Stephen Chow's "journey to the west", the box office is not good, but it's too hot on VCD rental and network! It's a classic!

The third is the spy series, which was originally released in 1996, with Tom Cruise as one of the stars.

Fourth, independence day, with a total box office of $810 million and a production cost of $75 million!

After a long night with Karina, Henry began to act the next day《 Forrest Gump is adapted from the novel of the same name published by American writer Winston glum in 1986, Shawshank Redemption is adapted from the redemption of Rita Hayworth and Shawshank prison included in Stephen King's different seasons, and mission impossible is adapted from the TV series of the same name broadcast on CBS from 1968 to 1973!

These three films are adapted, which shows the importance of copyright! If after he gets the right to adapt these three films, Henry only needs to make an oral statement, and then let the screenwriter write according to what Henry said, and the content of the script is similar to what he saw in his previous life. Finally, he will find a former director and leading actor to shoot, and that will be sure!

It's safe to find Roland Emmerich for independence day. He's both a director and a screenwriter. He's a master director of disaster films. He's shot independence day, Godzilla, the day after tomorrow, 2012 and the great crisis successively!

In independence day, the scene of the destruction of the White House in the film is really exciting, it's so cool! Henry is also fond of this scene, looking forward to the moment when the White House is destroyed!

Henry then sent an e-mail to Bob Robin, in which he wrote in great detail what he had to say.

After receiving the e-mail, Bob robin was surprised that galaxy film company had to make four films, even the director and actor were confirmed! Bob robin was surprised by the chairman's independent style, but he always made the right decisions, which surprised him most!

As for the chairman's decision, Bob Robin did not dare to disobey it. He rushed to act according to the plan and bought the right of adaptation first!

At this time, "Jurassic Park" has been fully released in the United States. After watching the film, countless people are excited and inexplicable, saying that the film is too good, and they want to see it for a second time, especially the dinosaurs in the film, which are lifelike and real, are absolutely frightening!

According to the rating of IMDB website, "Jurassic Park" has a high score of 9.3, and few people criticize the film in the comments!

Even if there is, it has been inundated by praise!

Many film analysts believe that the box office of Jurassic Park is over 100 million on the first day, and the seating rate is 100%. Then the next day, it will drop sharply to below 60%, but the fact is hitting them in the face《 The occupancy rate of Jurassic Park was as high as 75% on the second day. It took two or three days for the occupancy rate to drop significantly. By the 7th, the occupancy rate dropped to below 30%! Until then, IMDB cinema began to rearrange films, reducing the number of screening times and screens of Jurassic Park, improving the film's seating rate and reducing waste, while the surplus screen can be used to show other films!

After the first week, naturally, the box office of the first week also came out. Jurassic Park's box office in the first week totaled 280 million US dollars, ranking first in the box office of the first week!

On the same day, the box office of "big ambition" was $14 million, 20 times less than that of "Jurassic Park" in the first week!!!

Although "great ambition" ranked second at the box office in the first week, it's really... Well, it's not very good-looking. The box office difference is 20 times. It's embarrassing!

Hollywood Daily: "this week's box office is finally coming out, but the result is really shocking《 The first week box office of Jurassic Park broke through 280 million US dollars, once again breaking the world record, becoming the highest box office in the history of film history! On the same day, big ambition, starring Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise, took a dim $14 million box office! The difference between the two is 20 times. It's a world of difference! Maybe, at this moment, someone has already fainted in the toilet... "
