After the new box office briefing was released, Duke took the lead to leave England. David and Penny Kelly stayed here temporarily to continue their scandals with Manchester United. They will try their best to save this issue with the assistance of Warner’s UK branch. Prolong the negotiation a little longer, and strive to attract more attention.
For Manchester United, Duke is not very interested. If the opponent is really willing to sell for about 300 million pounds, he does not mind the next. After all, the future Premier League is the era of the golden dollar. In the future, it will be sold to the local tyrants in the Arab world. A profitable business.
However, this price may not be able to impress the shareholders of the Manchester United club, and as the news continues to come out, the Glazer family, also from North America, has also joined the game.
Doing so will inevitably cause dissatisfaction with some of England's Manchester United fans, but Manchester United fans in England are not many. Who cares about the owner of the acquisition club from outside the United Kingdom?
Compared to the chain reaction that can be triggered by fans and the media around the world, the dissatisfaction of the local die-hards in England is nothing.
At the same time, as they will face Pixar’s masterpiece "Finding Nemo" on a new weekend, even if there is a huge difference in the audience between the two sides, the Lord of the Rings Studios has increased its promotional efforts in North America to make the film 6, The film's North American box office could break through the $500 million mark as soon as possible.
"The Return of the King" once again made the headline of the cover of "Premier". At the end of the trilogy, news reports were entirely based on memories and remembrances, inspiring audiences to enter the theater again.
"Remember three years ago, when I first encountered the movie "Lord of the Rings: Fellowship Expedition"? Is there a feeling of being taken into a magical world? Is it with the Fellowship Expedition, It seems that I have also taken a long but ups and downs adventure?"
"Whether it's the bright and serene green fields of the Shire, the sad but unsullied Pina Konoha of Rivendell, or the simple and elegant white tower of Minas Tirith, the beauty exuded from the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy series. The worries about the world, the firmness in the victory of light over evil, and the persistence in love for life after life, are so tempting!"
"A series of movies has won a masterpiece, created a fan community, and left a movie world's immortal legend-the shooting process of the entire "Lord of the Rings" trilogy. The details, the exquisite pictures and The scenes can allow fans to appreciate and comment time and time again, and walk into the theater time and time again, looking forward to more fresh content. Three years later, the "Lord of the Rings" series seems to have never ended. It is as if the Fellowship Expedition Team in the book is disbanded, but it is always like a courageous team that will never disappear from our lives!
"The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy brings us far more than just the audio-visual enjoyment provided by superb technology. It is worthy of our repeated recollection."
"Dream back to Middle-earth, the legend will last forever!"
Not only professional media such as "Premier", Duke was also selected as the cover character of "Time" published this week!
The cover uses a photo of Duke sitting in front of the bottom of the bag as the background, with a particularly eye-catching title-a dream of a dream in the earth for seven years!
"Duke Rosenberg shares with the audience his journey of making dreams in China in the past seven years!"
Sitting on the terrace of the villa facing the sea, Ivanka opened the Time Magazine in her hand and looked at Duke dissatisfiedly. Duke quickly withdrew his gaze from the sea. A big smile appeared at Ivanka, "Honey. Go on, I'm listening."
All the comments and reports praising Duke are the most beautiful enjoyment for Ivanka. Her voice is not high, but she has a hint of pride.
"From the moment of preparing the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy to the final chapter of "Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King". Duke Rosenberg and his team have gone through an incredible seven-year journey, using three This movie brought the magnificent and magnificent Middle-earth magical world described by Professor Tolkien to the screen."
"It has always been Duke Rosenberg’s dream to bring favorite works and endless fantasies in his mind to the screen, and the Middle-Earth Dream, which was created in seven years, has an unknown entanglement behind its glorious glory. And bumpy. It’s hard to believe. Every time Duke Rosenberg begins to take over a new film project, the top Hollywood director has serious anxiety."
"From the first day of filming, I have had the same nightmare every night-when I was interviewed in Los Angeles in early January this year, Duke started to vomit as soon as I opened my mouth. "I dreamed that I was lying on the bed. The members of the film crew gathered around the bed, waiting for me to tell them what to do. But I don’t know exactly what I want to make the movie. I’m not sure, I don’t think the plan is finalized yet, but they all stood there waiting. My commander. I'm so tired, exhausted, hard to think.'"
"I won't lie to you, I will have nightmares every night, from the first day of shooting, until the day when the mirror is closed. Then the nightmare disappears. This is simply purgatory, but it disappeared after all-although " The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was finally completed and was a huge success, but Duke Rosenberg also endured countless sleepless nights."
"Now Duke can finally breathe a sigh of relief-every filming is burdened with responsibility, because you spend a huge amount of money, it is not destined to be easy, you must bear the pressure to move forward, and This is responsible."
After reading this, Ivanka suddenly put down the magazine, leaned in and kissed Duke lightly on the cheek, and said distressedly, "Dear..."
"It's all over, Evie." Duke grabbed her hand and kissed it. "I'm under a little pressure, but it's not as exaggerated as above. It's just for publicity."
But Ivanka had worked as an assistant to Duke and knew that the pressure he was under was actually greater than described in the magazine.
However, Duke obviously did not want to mention it again, and she did not continue to explore. Instead, she followed Duke's words and asked, "For publicity?"
"The film's box office will not be a big problem." Duke stood up, walked to the fence on the edge of the terrace, propped his hands on it, and looked at the endless Pacific Ocean. "This is preparing for next year."
Ivanka understood what Duke was talking about and walked over to stand here with him, "Is it going to start so early?"
"We are already late," Duke turned his head and looked at Ivanka. "Do you know Sofia's new film?"
"The one with Scarlett?"
Hearing the name, Ivanka frowned slightly, then let go, "I remember it was called "Lost in Tokyo"?"
"Well, it's "Lost in Tokyo"." Duke said briefly, "Since the beginning of the year, Sophia has taken "Lost in Tokyo" to various film festivals, accumulating professional reputation and targeting next year's Oscars.
Strictly speaking, the award-winning plan of "The Return of the King" has fallen behind a lot. Looking at Hollywood's award-winning films in recent years, it is not difficult to find that most of the films will spend about a year dedicated to award-winning. They will not be absent from the major art film festivals in Europe. They work hard to scream for the film and win professional praise. Large amounts of publicity and public relations funds will also be thrown out.
By the time the North American awards season arrives, many award-winning films often have thrown out millions of dollars in public relations expenses at various film festivals.
Of course, after the Weinstein brothers joined this fame and fortune game, million dollars is not even a starting level for Oscars.
Oscars and the film industry are actually the same. If you don't have enough investment, you can't expect satisfactory returns.
Footsteps sounded at the door of the terrace, Duke turned his head to look, and the butler Emma walked in with Nancy Josephson.
"Sit down, Nancy."
Ivanka greeted her warmly to sit down, and Emma sent a cup of coffee.
"How's it going?" She was called by Duke.
"I met Frank Pearson when I attended an event last week." Nancy said while adding sugar to the coffee. "Although he didn't say anything clearly, what he meant was already clear."
Duke nodded lightly. The old academics, even if they were inclined in their hearts, would not easily express their attitude to the outside world.
"The Royal Albert Company of the UK has completed our order," Nancy continued, "Before November, all the Lord of the Ring porcelains we ordered will be shipped to Los Angeles. Apple has also accepted the order. To make a batch of players specifically for us, the cost announced by the other party will be controlled within $100. Sony Electronics’ latest version of DVD player has also been completed, and it is estimated that it will be delivered to you next week."
"Where are our stamped luxury DVD sets?" Duke asked.
Nancy thought for a moment, and said, "No later than the end of July, 100,000 sets of commemorative DVD sets will be in place."
"Good job, Nancy." Duke still approves of her work.
"This is my job." Nancy couldn't help laughing. "I'm also very happy that my client can produce an Oscar for best director."
"What about Warner?" he asked again.
"Warner fully supports you." Nancy Josephson made a call gesture. "Doug Walter said that the resources of Warner Bros. will cooperate with us fully. If you need anything, you can just hang up."
The Weinstein brothers are good at Oscars, but other companies are not bad. It’s just that the operating policies of each company have created differences in the Oscars. Milan Max’s main business was originally around the award season and Oscars. The companies are different. The business route determines their different attitudes towards winning prizes.
The six major companies do not have an Oscar, and they still live very well. The Weinstein brothers’ film lacks an Oscar, not to mention it will definitely hit the street, and it will also reduce a lot of income.
Therefore, the six major companies often treat the Oscars in a simple way, and the Weinstein brothers almost put the company's wealth on it. It is only natural that they have become a major winner of the Oscars in recent years. (To be continued...)
