Chapter 1373: 1380

Scarlett Johnson has just had a brief confrontation with Li Youhu. Wearing a silver low cut dress, Vanessa Johnson, who is tall and hot, hugs Simon gently and holds the man's other arm. Seeing that her sister is still angry and coaxing children, she casually points to the side: "Scarlett, don't make trouble here, go there and play."

Scarlett saw her sister's tone of speaking to a child, especially the corner of someone's mouth, which made her smile a little more. She almost burst into tears. She couldn't bear to drop her juice on her sister's enviable dress, but she didn't know what to do for a moment. With a little scream, she turned and ran away.

Simon, who watched the whole process, only found it interesting.

I was so excited that I thought about what would happen if Johnson's sister became famous this time.

Although her younger sister is more famous now, Vanessa's "the clash of heaven and earth" won't be released until the end of the year. But it's fun for Simon to show a little bit of preference on purpose. And the foundation is much better than little Scarlett. Vanessa was raised by Simon for two years, and now she is more and more colorful.

After the short episode, Simon and two goblins continued to socialize in the crowd, and finally sat on the terrace sofa overlooking Los Angeles with Amy Pascal, Denny Morris, Nancy Brill and other senior danilis entertainment executives.

Even though following Simon has created enough miracles over the years, Amy Pascal still feels a little unreal about the sweeping posture of Denise entertainment in this summer camp. She can't help but half jokingly ask her boss how to do all this now?

Simon can't give the right answer as usual.

However, if we have to say another reason, in Simon's view, the key lies in that Hollywood is actually a big workshop.

When outsiders look at Hollywood, they often look up to it. As a result, all kinds of "Hollywood film industry" and "perfect film production system" Balabala are extremely tall.

In fact, if you know enough about this circle, you will find that Hollywood is far from as high-end as the outside world thinks.

The key point is that Hollywood, whether it was, is, or will be, a system of human governance.

rely on others for success in work.

As a result, if you meet the right person, a studio can prosper quickly. On the contrary, if you find the wrong person, just like Sony just took over Colombia in those years, the result is disastrous.

This is one aspect.

On the other hand, the reason why it is said to be a "big workshop" rather than a "film industry" lies in the extremely low risk resistance of major studios.

If the so-called perfect film industry is true, it will not affect the whole industrial system because of the success or failure of one or two film projects. In fact, the major Hollywood studios have almost closed down more than once because of the failure of one or two film projects.

Because these big studios, which look like scenery, are actually big workshops.

Concentrate on betting on a big project. If it fails, the whole workshop will be close to collapse. The next step is to find investors to inject capital, continue to save the next project, and fight again.

Originally, Hollywood's major workshops were at the same level.

It all depends on luck.

Film investment is a gamble.

Therefore, in the past, the pattern of Hollywood did not change significantly until Dibao and Warner, which have stable super British series, coexist and make other workshops gradually wither.

This time, Simon broke the balance of Hollywood 20 years in advance.

Because Simon doesn't rely on luck.

It's just because it's not luck and he knows that he has a great chance of success. Simon can make more achievements in some fields in advance, such as 3D animation and CG special effects, which further widens the gap between danilisi entertainment, a super big studio, and other studios.

Finally, it's now.

Just like Denise entertainment has produced special effects blockbusters such as DC movie universe series or Jurassic Park series, why don't other studios follow up and stick to the old Hollywood action movies?

Because I can't keep up.

Many people have the impression that special effects are very common in Hollywood, but they are not.

In the past, after the rise of CG special effects in Hollywood, the industrial light magic is really a special effects giant. Peter Jackson's Vita digital is another one. Finally, James Cameron's lightstorm studio is only half.

Others, can only be said to be CG studio, not special effects giant.

Just like there are a lot of people who know kung fu, but they can't just pull out one at random to be an action guide.

It's two different things.

Therefore, Hollywood's top special effects movies actually come from CG special effects of a few other studios... Well, the simplest comparison is that Disney's Marvel movie universe series and special effects are basically in the charge of industrial light and magic studios after taking over Lucas pictures. Then, let's see what kind of special effects are in the Avengers series, and next door, DC's Alliance for justice and so on. What special effects is that.

Why do DC's superhero movies always have so many night plays? Black, grey, even like CG?

To save money?

This is the most common saying.

However, is super baton or Justice League cheap to make?

It's not low.

Well, the result could be another one.

It's not that I don't want to do it, but that I can't do it.

So again, special effects studio is special effects studio, CG studio is CG studio. It doesn't mean that you can make the top special effects if you know CG, just like you can't become an action director if you know kung fu.

Now Hollywood.

The reality is that even if daenerys entertainment has opened the Maya series special effects software, up to now, daenerys entertainment is the only one that can produce the top special effects such as DC movie universe and Jurassic Park series. Other studios want to follow up. First, can they make up their minds to spend hundreds of millions of dollars for the team to practice, Even if it is such a sum of money, what is the probability of success?

The result is now.

And the root cause of all this, back to Simon's previous conclusion, Hollywood is not a film industrialization at all, in the final analysis, it is a big workshop. The reason why Hollywood is able to capture the world is not because of film industrialization, but because of the globalization after the end of the cold war.

After all, it's very obvious that Hollywood films have been developing for more than half a century since the end of the 19th century. Why didn't they capture the world before, but only started in the 1990s?

In a word, it is very difficult to subvert a perfect industrial system.

However, for Simon, who can see the results of most of the investment bets, it's very difficult to destroy a large factory which is actually quite primitive.

After the weekend, it's August 3.

Monday.

Chen Qing returned from China that day and brought Cheng Taixi with her.

Simon invited Cheng Taixi to complete the summer film release last time. Later, he played in North America, and the woman didn't come with Chen Qing until now.

At the same time, I also handed in a pretty good report card.

Needless to say, this film adapted from Korean folk script has been released since June. As expected, the number of people watching the film in Seoul has exceeded one million, with about 3 million people watching the film in South Korea, and the cumulative box office has reached about 10 billion won.

Although the total cost of production of 3 billion won and publicity of 1 billion won makes the project slightly lose in the stage of cinema line, it is easy for the follow-up channels to make profits.

And then there's the July 10 release of "strange talk about women.".

The production cost of this original campus horror film is only one-third of that of "red lotus", but the performance after its release is better than many people's expectations. In the first week of the project, 193000 people watched the film in Seoul. As of the end of July, the number of people who watched the film in Seoul, South Korea has exceeded 500000, and it is expected that the number of people watching the film in Seoul will be about 700000, There may be more than 2 million people in Korea.

That means about 7 billion won at the box office.

Even if South Korea's box office share is low, only about 37%, showbox team can recover about 2.6 billion won. Only in the stage of cinema, the net profit is more than 1 billion won.

Anyway, it's a good start.

Simon is also considering whether to make a Hollywood version of "Strange Tales of women.".

After all, the Korean side is just a small plate. Although it has entered August, Simon's more attention is still on the Hollywood side.

After the painting started on July 29, relying on excellent word-of-mouth and early publicity, hero finally made a box office of $32.16 million in the first week in North America, which is expected to be within the expected range.

With this achievement, Zhang Guoshi returned to China contentedly and began to prepare the long bumpy trilogy of Chu Han.

When everyone thought "hero" was a perfect ending for Denise's entertainment summer program, on August 7, Steven Soderberg quietly released "magic Mike", which had attracted much attention and had been silent for many years with "sex, lies and videotape", quite unexpectedly, it gave many people a big surprise again.

For this low-cost movie, which costs only $7 million to make, many people don't pay much attention to it even inside danielis entertainment.

If we set the deadline for the summer program to the end of August, this is not the last movie of danielis entertainment summer program. After all, the release frequency of danielis entertainment is 52 weeks, which is definitely more than the average weekly new movie.

And, at first glance, the plot of magic Mike is not brilliant at all.

Because of an accident, the frustrated construction worker Mike entered the circle of male dancers, and then began to indulge, degenerate, and finally wake up.

That's the story.

Even if Simon himself made the schedule, the new world film team only gave 1635 opening screens in the first week, and all aspects of publicity were in line.

Not even the premiere.

After the release of the film, the only bright spot is probably the comprehensive media score of 7.9, but this is definitely not the reason why the film has become a black horse at the box office. After all, the film with a score of 7.9 is barely excellent, but this summer season is also a big catch.

However, it exploded like that.

Three days after the first weekend, "magic Mike" made a lot of people unexpectedly earn $15.46 million, which is close to the average of more than ten thousand compared with 1635 open painting screens.

Outstanding.

Then, in the first full week, the production cost of this small film was only $7 million, and the box office in seven days finally reached $27.32 million, which directly became another black horse in the summer of 1998.

Different from another PG grade song and dance youth, the first week data of this R-grade song and dance film is worth mentioning, that is, the three-day box office of the first weekend only accounts for 56% of the whole first week, which is far lower than the level of 60% to 70% of most film weekends, indirectly indicating that the popularity of the first week of the film has been rising, So many people go to watch the film on weekdays.

It doesn't make sense.

Frankly speaking, Simon himself is not sure why the movie will make the audience like it?

Dancer?

forget it.

Scale?

Paul van Hoven's the dancer two years ago, that's the scale.

music?

It's not brilliant.

Steve Soderberg?

Many people have forgotten about sex, lies and video. After all, this film didn't get the golden palm, so Soderberg didn't get the title of Hollywood golden boy.

Anyway, it just doesn't make sense.

This unreasonable 7 million production cost small film, which grossed 27.32 million US dollars, unexpectedly won a weekly box office champion at the end of the summer season in early August, which gradually began to turn cold. Therefore, the film attracted more people's attention.

Anyway, to be sure, a large number of similar films will follow suit.

On the other hand, "magic Mike" is booming, while "hero" maintains a fairly stable trend, with a decline of 34% in the next week. For a Chinese film, it is in line with the rules, with another $21.23 million and a cumulative box office of $53.39 million. As a result, the total box office in North America is expected to move to the back of the forecast range of 60 million to 80 million.

Besides the movie, another thing that attracted Simon's attention during this period came from China.

On August 11, 1998, the Chinese authorities issued the notice on further deepening the reform of urban housing system and speeding up housing construction, declaring that China began to carry out comprehensive and thorough housing commercialization reform.

Several years in advance has begun to layout, really wait until this day, Simon inevitably still some emotion.

Because such a document will not only affect the development trend of China's economy in the next 20 years, but also affect a whole generation of Chinese people. As for whether the result is good or bad, maybe a generation can't judge it, and can only wait for a longer historical scale to look back.
