Chapter 798：

Peter Rich thought for a moment and said: "There are not many other Hollywood film companies that have made public statements about this, but Global has publicly stated this morning that it will hold a celebration feast for the professor of fatness on the weekend. In addition, the media has shown this performance. Very active, this is the first time in three years that we have lost the dominant position in the June schedule."

Starting from the Jurassic Park in 1993, the fireflies, with their fixed summer trilogy strategy, almost firmly held the most popular month of June in North America. During this period, the films produced by other film companies barely got the film. Pass any week at the box office championship.

Because of the continuous strong box office performance of the Firefly summer file, Hollywood has even used the June schedule as a firefly's reserve. Other major movie companies will almost subconsciously transfer their own main film from the June schedule.

But this year, because the Titanic and Firefly's 3 animated films missed the summer file at the same time, there were only two films released by the Firefly mains. Movie companies such as Universal and Paramount also began to try to land in the golden period of the fireflies.

Although there is a film in the absence of fireflies, the strength of fireflies in the past few years has left a deep shadow on other film companies. Therefore, it is conceivable that when the global black comedy professor Fei Jie accidentally suppressed the fireflies, the courageous island won the summer box office championship in June, how happy the executives of several other major movie companies in Hollywood would be. Although they will not rashly publicly express their views, but with the close ties between Hollywood and the media, these people will certainly use the media channels to express the remaining stagnation in the last few years.

In the media's accustomed to seeing the character of the rudder, Eric can almost imagine how much entertainment news in American newspapers will be live in recent days.

Eric didn't pay much attention to this, just as the conversation between Carlsenberg and Frank Wells in Los Angeles was a few days ago. On the one hand, fireflies are not listed companies, and Eric has the absolute company. The controlling stake does not have to worry about the martyrdom from the capital market and the shareholder level. On the other hand, with its strong financial strength, the firefly film production and distribution system's capital chain is completely self-sufficient and does not need to rely on external financing. Therefore, the fact that the movie box office is not up to expectations does not have any substantial impact on the fireflies. At most, the annual film business revenue will shrink compared to the past, and the film market is extremely uncertain. The ups and downs are hard to avoid by any big movie company. It’s not a bad thing to happen to the fireflies. At the very least, the Hollywood counterparts who have been suppressed for a few years can breathe a sigh of relief and reduce some The hostility and wariness of fireflies.

Talk to Peter Ridge for a while, Eric signed the necessary documents and sent the assistant to leave.

Leaving the study and coming downstairs to the living room, Miranda saw Eric coming downstairs and immediately got up and greeted him. A white woman who was sitting next to the single sofa also stood up. The woman wore a white blouse and black. Knee-length skirt, about one meter seven feet tall, with a brown hair, looks like a general appearance, but the eyes are faintly savvy.

"Eric, this is Claire Weitzman," Miranda said with a close relative to Eric's arm.

Eric nodded to the other side to sit down again and asked, "Are you an intern?"

"Yes, Mr. Williams, I dropped out of the South University last year and just entered the year."

The proportion of American college students dropping out of school is nearly 50%. Claire said frankly, Eric is not surprised. He only guessed that she might be a child from Clare’s college. Nangao is a famous rich school in North America. Claire was sent to serve as an assistant to Miranda. It is certainly not a pure accident. After all, the layer must know that through Miranda, you can get the opportunity to contact with yourself. This is estimated to be the resources of any broker who dreams of.

Eric was too lazy to pay attention to the twists and turns in this, saying: "Miranda has nothing to do here, you will accompany her to Florida to turn around, then go back to Los Angeles."

Claire smiled and nodded. "Of course, no problem, Mr. Williams, this is my job."

Miranda, who was attached to Eric’s face, showed a happy expression on his face, and turned into pitifulness. He gently shook Eric’s arm and said: “Eric, I, I will meet now. Los Angeles ticket money can't afford it."

Eric smiled and reached out and pinched the poor face of the girl, pulled out the wallet, and wanted to write a check to the girl. Miranda had already curious about the kitten, and probed her into the Eric wallet.

"Wow, this, black, black, I heard that, Eric, can I use this black credit card?"

Although the famous Yunjin Black Gold Card was not released until 1999, in fact, many banks' top credit cards are black.

Eric is not collecting cockroaches. There are only three or four major US bank credit cards in the wallet. Seeing the girl’s look at the small head, Eric smiled and inserted the pen back and took out the Citi black card. To the girl, said: "Hey, don't let the flowers go, go back to Los Angeles after playing for a while."

"I know," Miranda took the credit card with joy and licked his lips and kissed him. He realized that it was not right, and quickly grabbed Eric’s neck and kissed him on his face. Road: "Eric, you are a good person."

Eric was full of black lines, and did not expect that an infinite black card would have changed a good card, which was too bad.

Reaching out and almost riding Miranda on his legs, Eric said: "Go to Peter, let him call my accountant to authorize it. Also, don't be so exaggerated in the future."

Eric continued to devote himself to the shooting of the Royal Casino.

However, in Hollywood, because of the media discussion caused by the failure of the box office of the island, it did not slow down because of the loss of time, but it became the beginning of a wind.

After the news that the first weekend of the island’s box office was lost to Professor Fei Wei, most of the media in North America was boiling, although they realized that this kind of celebration was not unreasonable, but the fireflies continued to occupy the sixth. Three years after the monthly schedule, the news of the first box office defeat is, after all, a big news. The appeal to the ordinary people is no less than the news that a large consortium in the United States suddenly went bankrupt. Therefore, whether it is to win the eyeball or the power behind it. I really want to celebrate. In short, most of the media have shown gloating attitudes to the news of the loss of the box office.

So noisy for a week, on June 21st, Universal produced two years of heavyweight film Mummy 2 officially launched on the 3,300 screens in the United States, and also released Sony's first Hollywood 20 million movie revenue star Kim Kerry. Starring the ace commissioner.

With the accumulated popularity of the previous game and the overwhelming publicity, the mummies 2 were able to harvest a total of 84.29 million US dollars at the box office in North America in just one week. They easily won the box office championship of the week and also got all the current positions in 1996. The film has the best results in painting.

At the same time, the brave life-threatening island, as the fireflies expected, although the youth audience is not many, but because of the excellent film quality, only the box office decline in the next week, once again harvested 32.17 million US dollars at the box office, ranking the week at the box office rankings Two.

Sony’s high-profile ace commissioner’s box office is far below industry expectations. The first week’s more than 2,600 screens were released, only harvesting $29.96 million at the box office, ranking third, as Kim Kerry’s $20 million payroll boosted the film. The production budget, the total cost of the film reached 60 million US dollars, but in the film's downturn, Jim Carrey got rid of the first movie after the original contract, and may be the first North American after he became the film actor. The box office is hard to break the 100 million film.

Subsequent professors of fat 也不 did not unexpectedly fall to the box office of 39, with a weekly box office of $27.45 million, ranking fourth.

In the fourth week of the show, the box office of the hacker fell 46, with the $20.18 million weekly box office squeezed into the fifth position of the weekly box office. At the same time, after four weeks of release, the hacker North American box office easily broke through 200 million US dollars, reaching 200 million. $540,000 location.

Because of the congenital insufficiency of the island, although it showed its due strength in the following week, the total box office of this film will eventually be fixed in the range of about 130 million US dollars.

Therefore, although the box office of the Matrix has exceeded $200 million, the media has not missed the opportunity of fireflies, but has compared the box office results of the fireflies this year with last year.

The three films of Firefly last summer, Jurassic Park 2, Independent Day and Toy Story 2, only North American box office, accumulated more than 811 million US dollars. In the past few years, the box office of the Firefly summer file has also maintained this level.

But this year, everything seems to have turned sharply.

Although the hacker box office broke through 200 million US dollars, the expected box office of the courageous island is also destined to bring good profits to the fireflies in the later period.

But with the boxing horror expecting 240 million, the courageous island is expected to have a box office of 130 million US dollars. The total box office of these two films this summer is only 370 million, compared with the summer 8.1 million last year, the firefly this year. Box office results fell sharply by 54.

Heavyweight movies have always had a locomotive effect in big movie companies, because the power of the hacker and the brave island is not enough, you can imagine that the firefly will shrink more than 50 in the next year compared to last year's various profit data. Coupled with the expected losses caused by the Titanic, which is almost stepping into the future of the water world, it will be completely unknown that the fireflies will be able to achieve annual operating profits of more than $2 billion this year.

Even some media that are more pessimistic about fireflies, the firefly's box office defeat in this summer's summer file is a sign that the fireflies will surely decline.

In this case, in the last week of June, Paramount issued a singularity, once again giving the firefly a perfect complement.

On June 28th, Paramount Pictures launched its first 2 hand-painted animated film in the Disney Hand-Drawing Animation Studio, which was acquired from Firefly for $2.5 billion. .

Although the production cost of this 2 animated film almost doubled compared to the firefly period, because the Paramount animation wants to give the old owner a perfect revenge, several studio leaders are responsible for this animation. The film has invested a lot of energy, and the quality of the film in the wind is much stronger than in the original time and space. The film was only a box office in the early stage, and it has accumulated a total of 5.9 million US dollars.

Although the first week of the singularity of the wind failed to replicate the box office miracle of the Lion King of $66 million, the first week’s $51 million, with a cumulative box office score of $56.9 million, still exceeded most box office expectations and would even be the first Zhou Mouyi's incomparable mummies turned to the ground, and the mummies dropped by 49 at the second week's box office, with a cumulative box office of only $41.72 million.

As we all know, the box office curve of animated films has always been good at long-term, the first week of the wind in the box office reached $ 51 million, as long as the box office decline within 30 weeks in the next few weeks, the total box office can even hit the $ 200 million mark. Subsequently, the box office decline of the second week of the wind in the second week of 26, no doubt confirmed this.

In this case, everyone completely ignored the death of the new line movie company of Firefly and the same week in the wind. This style of **** horror film was obtained in the first week of the summer of the strong. More than 13 million US dollars at the box office, the next week's decline is only 24, the cumulative box office may even be close to 60 million US dollars, with its cost of 20 million US dollars, plus overseas box office, death is undoubtedly the new line This year, after another seven sins, another big profit movie.

Of course, most of these media are selectively ignored. Because of the success of the box office in the wind, the media began to shift their fingertips directly to the firefly's abandonment of hand-drawn animation.

The fact that the fireflies were originally sold in the hand-painted animation studio has only been known to a small extent, and the fireflies are certainly not possible to explain at this time.

Seeing that the outside is getting more and more lively, the group has to start to fight back.

It happened that the hacking box office broke through 200 million US dollars, it is worth celebrating, and in order to make this film a higher North American box office, the firefly arranged the talk show of the Wachowski brothers to land on b.

This talk show, it really brought a problem to the fireflies.
