Chapter 1663: 1671

Simon took off with girl a in the afternoon and went back to Los Angeles. It was Thursday, July 27. The next day, a large-scale painting ceremony was held in Los Angeles. Simon didn't attend.

After all, it's not a blockbuster.

In other words, the original new world film team also considered whether to carry out some pre screening of Kung Fu in order to accumulate public praise.

It was not implemented in the end.

Because it's not necessary.

Since the premiere of Cannes in May, the news of Kung Fu has been spreading in the entertainment circles in North America. Even if starring Zhou Xingxing is not as famous as Jack Cheng and Jett Lee in the United States, the continuous information scouring over the past few months, from the film itself to the starring stars, they are very familiar with the screens that pay a little attention to Chinese films.

In addition, Kung Fu has frequently created box office records in the Chinese speaking area on the other side of the ocean recently, which has created a very low-cost but very effective publicity topic here.

Even the premiere on July 27.

Although Simon did not attend, the premiere was not only attended by a large group of Chinese faces familiar in North America, but also by many local Hollywood stars. The last batch of auxiliary publicity on the online platform was even more powerful.

In short, the popularity and word-of-mouth accumulation of a film before its release are enough. There is even the popularity foundation laid by Chinese language films in previous years. Next, what we need to see is the market performance of the film itself.

Friday, July 28.

In the new box office week, Kung Fu officially opened in North America on the scale of 2509 screens. For a Chinese film, this scale is also enough.

At the same time, there is a box office week that has just ended.

The Black Dahlia directed by Brian De Palma reached the top unexpectedly. However, it is obviously because the summer season has entered the second half. Coupled with its own subject matter restrictions, the performance of the black dahlia is far from the strength of a series of blockbusters in June and even early July. Finally, the box office in the first week was $43.91 million.

Within expectations.

The final North American box office of the film is about 100 million. Compared with the production cost of 50 million US dollars of Black Dahlia, only the early production investment can be recovered in the North American local cinema stage, and the overseas can enter the profit cycle in the same period.

As the second project of the "Los Angeles Quartet", it is expected that it is unlikely to hit the Oscar this time. At most, it is Mia koshna's nomination for Best Supporting Actress plus one or two technical awards, but it is still commercially successful. Of course, it is also a regular success. The dark horse is not a success, but there is nothing unsatisfactory.

Then, danilis Entertainment's own hangover 2 is worth mentioning. In the fourth week of release, it received another US $16.43 million, and the cumulative box office reached US $166.19 million.

Because of a deep drop of 55% in the previous week, there is no hope that the hangover 2 will hit 200 million. However, with the current trend, the local box office will eventually be between 180 million and 190 million US dollars.

Moreover, according to overseas feedback in recent weeks, hangover 2's overseas box office is expected to reach between $300 million and $400 million, eventually pushing the film's global box office to more than $500 million.

With a total investment of US $80 million in production and publicity, the global revenue is more than 500 million. It is expected that only in the cinema stage, it is expected to reap a net profit of US $150 million, which is a great success.

With the big sale of hangover 2, as expected, Ukraine has become a very popular tourist destination in this summer, especially Livni in Rovno state. The recent increase of tourists has increased by more than 300% compared with the same period last year, and some people can't receive it for a time.

At the same time, the success of the film itself also makes the third film the focus of many people's attention.

Not only the main creator of the project and danilis's internal team, but also the outside world is paying close attention to the establishment of the next sequel of this series, because Atlantic City in the first film and Livni in Ukraine in the second film have received good publicity because of their appearance in it. Some cities have also taken the initiative to contact and hope to become a shooting spot for hangover 3.

Simon is not very interested in it.

It's not just the postponement of sequel development strategy set before. The first two films are so successful. It's inevitable that the production cost of hangover 3 will further increase to more than 70 million. It's regarded as publicity and distribution, and the final investment is likely to reach more than 100 million US dollars.

Although as long as there is no big difference, even if the cost increases significantly, it is still not difficult to make profits. Moreover, compared with various original projects, the risk is quite small, but it gives people a sense of tasteless food and pity to abandon it.

In short, Simon doesn't plan to start a sequel in the short term without other better options.

Followed by thunderbolt doll 2.

In the fifth week of release, the box office of thunderbolt doll 2 fell to US $13.49 million in a single week. However, compared with hangover 2, it is regrettable to stop within the threshold of US $200 million. It is also the first week of the 90 million level. Thunderbolt doll 2 has successfully broken through the local 200 million mark last week, and the box office this week has further reached US $220.22 million.

It is expected that there will be about 20 million box office potential in the follow-up, and the final box office will be around 240 million US dollars.

In addition, the overseas performance of thunderbolt doll 2 is also better than hangover 2. According to the overseas feedback in recent weeks, the final overseas revenue is expected to be more than US $400 million. All cinemas have been released, and the final global box office will reach US $600 million to US $700 million.

Finally, it is worth mentioning that submarine mobilization.

The 3D animated film, which opened in early June, has just earned $10.01 million in the past week and will slide into the box office range of $10 million this week.

Within eight weeks of release, the cumulative total box office of NEMO has reached 332.66 million US dollars, and it is expected to close another 20 million US dollars, pushing the total local box office of the film to 350 million US dollars.

In addition, in nearly two months, the overseas box office of underwater mobilization has also exceeded US $400 million. It is expected that there will be another revenue range of US $200 million, and finally the overseas box office can reach the level of US $600 million.

It is obvious whether we can finally break the threshold of $1 billion, which is expected by many, but we have to admit that it seems that the door is in front of us. In fact, it is not easy to cross it.

In any case, Nemo has been the most successful film of 2000.

It's a little pity.

During this time, clownfish around the world were sold to the extent that animal protection organizations jumped out to protest, but danilis entertainment could not do the live fish business after all.

With the release of Kung Fu, the North American summer program in 2000 entered the follow-up and closing stage. At the same time, the time soon came to August.

In the new month, Simon's first concern is another G8 summit from July 31 to August 2.

This year's G8 summit was held in Okinawa, Japan. There are two main topics, one is still globalization, the other is new technology.

Simon joined the G8 in the UK and Germany two years ago. It is reasonable to say that this year's topic is new technology, and he should attend.

However, I didn't go.

Okinawa has nothing to pay attention to except the U.S. military base. What's more, it hasn't been to Asia long before, so it's too lazy to run again.

Of course, on the other hand, Japan does not want Simon to appear.

The westero effect is terrible.

In fact, I've thought about it. I'm afraid of you. But let's forget that we are all adults and so busy.

Although Simon did not attend, the three-day meeting was quite lively.

In addition to the last round of foreign affairs visits to Asia, which will soon arrive in Vietnam, where the Westeros system is more concerned, and the heads of state of the other seven countries, leaders of many regional countries have also been invited.

Then, a group of small countries such as the Philippines and Malaysia also worked out a communique before the G8 communique was published.

The main content is condemnation.

Condemning the failure of developed countries to fulfil their commitments to help reduce the debt of developing countries.

In fact, this is a topic that will be covered in G8 meetings for several consecutive years after the Asian financial crisis. However, of course, we are just talking. In this regard, the spokesman of the G8 meeting also said publicly that developed countries can only provide assistance and reduce their debts, mainly relying on the efforts of developing countries themselves.

Saying is not saying.

Then, Okinawa residents protested against the stationing of the US military in Okinawa as usual. Recently, another worry happened. A US military in Okinawa, uh, according to the official words, forcibly had a relationship with a local middle school girl. It should not wear something, otherwise it certainly doesn't count.

In short, it has provoked public resentment again.

Not only that, South Korea, which has always been at odds with Japan, echoed far away.

Seoul residents protested that the local garrison damaged the environment and directly discharged untreated formaldehyde and other toxic substances into the Han River.

Speaking of this, Simon saw this kind of news and immediately understood the inspiration source of the Han river monster in the original time and space.

It's exactly the same.

In addition, in fact, there are details. The formaldehyde and other substances emitted by the U.S. military seem to be used to preserve corpses. As we all know, high concentration formaldehyde is formalin. Simon didn't inquire deeply about why to preserve corpses and what corpses to preserve. After all, it's a matter that affects appetite too much.

Two things happened at the same time, and finally had a good result.

Apologize.

Local U.S. military representatives in Okinawa and Seoul apologized before and after, and said they would investigate and strictly deal with the relevant responsible persons.

Balabala.

Speaking of it, it is a habit for the US military stationed in Japan to apologize. Anyway, it will certainly not change.

However, in Seoul, according to the news, this is the first public apology for its behavior after the U.S. military entered South Korea in 1945.

for the first time!

The treatment is clear at a glance.

For my own son, I'm not doing very well at home. I'll show you more or less.

Yes, well, Simon doesn't know how to describe it. In short, he apologized for the first time in half a century.

However, as the largest country in the universe, the U.S. military, which has been stationed in South Korea for half a human century, must have won a great victory by extending the time to the life span of 20 billion years.

Therefore, local newspapers in South Korea generally reported the matter in a victory tone.

After paying close attention to the excitement on the other side of the ocean, Simon's attention turned back to North America again.

The box office week from July 28 to August 3 will soon end.

Kung Fu, which has attracted much attention, did not disappoint people. In the first week of its release in North America, it successfully scored $37.93 million at the box office, and the number of pavilions reached $13000, which is quite a big success.

Speaking of it, both Simon and the publicity team were worried that North American audiences would not adapt to Zhou Xingxing's performance style. Even in this film, Zhou has quite restrained his personal characteristics. Fortunately, the worry did not happen.

37.93 million in the first week, it may be a little difficult to break the 100 million, but it won't be a problem to rush $80 million.

Equal to a hero.

After all, the production cost of kungfu is only $25 million. Before, it was only mainland China. It is estimated that the box office of 500 million yuan has recovered most of the cost. In North America, how much it gets is profit.

Of course, Simon's personal satisfaction does not mean that everyone is satisfied.

Compared with the regrets of Yigan, including Zhou, and other relevant parties, Simon has never been sober.

After all, it's just a "Kung Fu" label in North America.

Although Simon is not like some people on the original timeline, Westerners have seen several films and lost interest, which led to the loss of the market of Chinese films in Hollywood. In fact, it is only the Chinese filmmakers themselves who can no longer make good films and make good publicity, but if they can't get rid of this label, they can't last too long after all.

On the other hand, Simon was very excited about it at first.

However, gradually, it is inevitable to struggle.

After all, it is a fish that has landed.

In any case, future events will be discussed in the future.

One thing after another.

For example, this weekend, I didn't leave Los Angeles and worked as usual. In the morning, I decided to see the documentary Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, which has entered the final publicity stage.

After last year's Mount Everest, this is the next project.

In a word, if it can succeed, even if it is slightly worse than last year's Everest, as long as it causes enough response, it can open up a small label that is not too mainstream for Chinese films.

The main creative team of the film obviously worked hard for this goal.

At the previous Kung Fu premiere, Jiang MI, who starred in the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, not only surprised the audience, but even for the first time, as the premiere film, he also brought a pre trailer, which is the trailer of this documentary.

In short, the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, which is scheduled to be released on August 18, has attracted a lot of attention with the gimmick of last year's Mount Everest and a series of recent small-scale publicity.

Although it is close to the release, it must be too late to change, Simon plans to see it himself.

Unexpectedly, in a small screening room in danilis studios, Simon was suddenly knocked on the door by a woman shortly after the broadcast of the documentary.
