Chapter 800： Hasbro's price code

Entering the office, jr? Jones handed the briefcase to the assistant casually, turned to the back of the desk, took a sip of a good-temperature coffee, and then turned on the laptop.

"Black." He looked at the female assistant, "Is what I want ready?"

"Ready, in the folder on your right."

After answering, the female assistant hurriedly left the office. She understood that her boss’s vision was very high, almost on top of her head. In the past so many years, any movie he didn’t watch had a high box office and would always lose her temper. "Transformers 2 "The box office will definitely make him runaway, she doesn't want to be a punching bag.

Although knowing that he could only escape for a while, Blake did not hesitate to hide in his seat. Since the beginning of the new century, the boss's temper has become more and more frequent, because he is not optimistic about Disney commercial movies and is always relaxed. He won a high box office, and his film reviews are almost no one pays attention.

Thinking of the miserable income of the boss in the past year, Bo? no? wrong? Lake can't help lamenting that his welfare is getting worse and worse, maybe it's time for another industry.

In the office, jr? Jones found a thin piece of printing paper on the first day of the North American box office and the world's first day of "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen King".

The North American box office was $69.05 million! The global box office is 185.66 million US dollars!

This is the 24-hour record of "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen King".

His hands shook slightly, and jr Jones patted the table again, swearing a few words starting with ”, his whole face was almost distorted, as if this could not vent his anger and unwillingness, his hands exerted force. , Tore the printing paper into two halves, and threw it on the ground severely.

"!..."

He felt anger burning in his chest, that movie was so bad. Obviously there is no connotation and depth, why do those idiots still buy tickets to see it?

Is it true that all people in this world have fallen?

Under the pressure of anger, jr? Jones opened his own online column. It was an article he published immediately after the premiere. It seemed to have no effect. If it was ten years ago, with their popularity, they would affect hundreds of people. Tens of thousands or even tens of millions of dollars in the box office is not too difficult.

He remembered the treatment last night, movie tickets, round-trip air tickets and other expenses. It was all his own pockets. In the past, this was a necessary expense for the producer and distributor, and there was no way to talk about gifts. In the past, when a film of this size was released, he always received a minimum of five-figure. Checks, now these are all gone...

"!"

"Damn Disney! Damn Ryan Jenkins! Damn Transformers and Michael Bay!"

In the curse in his heart, jr Jones entered the column. Although his influence is not as good as before, there are always some supporters. Every time a film appears, someone will reply below, whether it is to echo or counter the abuse, it always makes him feel that he has not been completely forgotten.

"Although this year has not passed, I can say with certainty. As far as the movies that have been released now, "Transformers" 2 is definitely the worst and most disgusting. There is no one. It won the first place! This film Disgusting. What do you want in the summer file. He just packs and throws it out. Michael Bay doesn't care about the quality and theme of the film at all, so I am very disappointed."

"If you are worried about being late and missing the beginning of the story line-don't worry. "Transformers" has no storyline, nothing at all; you can look at your watch and wait twenty-five minutes before you enter the venue."

"Of course, if you are interested in summer has arrived and human beings are still in the estrus period of the primitive society in the spring, then you can still hurry in the first twenty-five minutes."

"If you are going to see Alexandra Ambrosio, and you are a man, I have nothing to say. She has a very hot body, her face is not bad, and her pouting and kissing gestures are growing. It’s really annoying to show off his **** and buttocks in front of the camera. I would rather watch a bulldog in heat-at least the bulldog is not concealing real needs, not fakes. climax……"

Eyes follow his comments all the way down. Jr Jones is still very satisfied with his film reviews. This can always bring some trouble to the movie, even if it affects thousands of people not entering the theater, it is also to Ryan Jenkins. Fight back.

Last year, his agent had contacted Disney and expressed his desire to cooperate, but was strictly rejected by Disney’s management. The reason Disney gave was simply unbearable—the critics were not worth it. The price paid.

Jones pulled down the film reviews to the end and wanted to see the following netizens' replies. Only when he saw that there were still people paying attention to his column, could he regain the feeling of the past, the feeling that film reviews determine the life and death of a movie.

"What?"

His eyes widened suddenly, as if seeing an incredible scene.

The number of responses under the film reviews is zero, and the number of browses is a poor twenty-three, this...this is simply...

Jones rubbed his eyes, as if he couldn't believe what he saw. This film review has been published for more than 24 hours. Why is there lack of attention?

However, the truth of the matter lies here, even if he shattered his eyes, those two vivid figures remind him-you are not interested!

"boom!"

The sound of a coffee cup smashing on the floor was heard in the room, and Black remembered it happened after "Iron Man 2" was released.

Poor professional film critic...

Not knowing why, this thought suddenly appeared in her mind.

How much professional film critics hate "Transformers 2," and audiences like "Transformers 2". In just two days, the freshness of "Transformers 2" on the Rotten Tomatoes website that best reflects the tastes of film critics has been It's down to 22%, but inversely proportional to the film's box office numbers.

After winning the North American box office of 69.05 million US dollars on the day of the holiday, "Transformers 2" won 45.68 million US dollars and 40.95 million US dollars on the following Saturday and Sunday, respectively. The first Wednesday in North America took 15568 million dollars. Ten thousand dollars, sitting on the throne of the North American box office leaderboard without any suspense.

Although "Transformers 2" is not as crazy as last year's "Hunger Games 2: Catching Fire" at the North American box office, it has shown a strong enough momentum.

Five days at 235.88 million U.S. dollars, one week at 268.75 million U.S. dollars, 10 days to exceed 300 million U.S. dollars...

In terms of global box office, in just five days, the global box office surpassed 400 million U.S. dollars. When the film was released all over the world for a week, the box office figure of 525.66 million U.S. dollars, announced to the world another super hit. The video appeared.

It is almost inevitable that the film's global box office will exceed 1 billion US dollars.

In addition, various products related to Transformers are once again selling big, especially Hasbro's Transformers toys. During the film's hit period, sales increased by 440% compared to the same period last year.

North America is the well-deserved first ticket store for "Transformers 2", and the renewed enthusiasm in China across the ocean has also surprised Disney and Hollywood.

Although all the text related to Shang Hai in the film was clicked off by a certain big scissors, a considerable part of the plot of the film has already been fired up in China. In the Chinese trailer, the scenes of the Chinese actress are from beginning to end. It has appeared, which to some extent aroused the enthusiasm of Chinese audiences.

The film was released simultaneously in China, and the zero-point attendance rate was close to 95%, which is enough to see the popularity of "Transformers 2" in China.

Although many of them complained about "U.S. soldiers attacking aliens with weapons, and China using advertisements to conquer Hollywood", in subsequent releases, the 3d and imax versions of "Transformers 2" were hard to find.

The box office of 38.9 million RMB on the first day of "Transformers 2" also easily surpassed the China's single-day box office record of 32.41 million RMB created by "Transformers".

This film set off a hotter movie-watching frenzy in China than the first one. The first three days of the first three days were 129.55 million RMB, and the subsequent films exceeded 200 million in five days and over 300 million in eight days, both of which created the Chinese film market. new record.

Seventeen days after its release, "Transformers 2" broke the Chinese box office record of 430.05 million RMB, which was only maintained for two years, and successfully topped the historical box office championship in China.

However, even though Disney has made a lot of efforts, "Transformers 2" still did not get the postponed ‘key’ of a certain game. After just 30 days, it was the first to be released from the Chinese market.

565.78 million RMB, this is a brand new Chinese movie box office record, which belongs to "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen King".

Entering August, the North American box office of "Transformers 2" is steadily moving towards the $400 million mark. The film's another great success has also made Hasbro full of confidence in its own toy-based film After they bought back the adaptation rights of "Special Forces" from Jenkins Pictures, they are working with Stephen Sommers to produce a live-action movie.

With a successful precedent, Hasbro raised the production budget of "Special Forces: The Rise of Cobra" to $170 million.

In order to get this series back, they not only paid three times the original adaptation transfer fee, but also sold 2% of the peripheral share of "Transformers", naturally wanting to make it into a super-sale series.

Most importantly, Hasbro issued an invitation to Ryan, offering a price tag of 30 million US dollars plus 30% of the global box office share, and inviting him to play the absolute protagonist Duke-that is, the Duke-and this price. There is still room for negotiation.

Of course, they know that Ryan is not bad for money, but such a rare price is a symbol of his status as an actor in Hollywood.

After simple thinking, Ryan still declined Hasbro's invitation. His next job was already full and there was no suitable schedule. (To be continued...)
