For the distributor of Pixar Animation Studios, a group of Hollywood film companies are very interested.
Including Sony Pictures, Universal Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox, Paramount, Warner Bros., several Hollywood giants, as well as a number of second-tier film companies.
The same goes for Orion Pictures.
It is said that when Michael Eisner knew about it, he was furious and even publicly accused Steve Jobs.
The conflict between the two became more acute.
Hearing the news, Ryan just smiled and didn't pay much attention.
Whether it's Michael Eisner or Steve Jobs' character and behavior, they are all very strong.
If nothing else, it's almost impossible for Steve Jobs to renew his contract with Disney.
Of course, Sony Pictures, Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, Paramount, Warner Bros. and other Hollywood giants may not be easy to obtain the distribution rights of Pixar Animation Studios for a long time.
According to the development trajectory of the previous life, until 2006, Pixar Animation Studios had not confirmed a new distributor.
In other words, Ryan and Orion Pictures don't need to worry at all.
Besides, there's no use in worrying.
Before the agreement between Pixar Animation Studios and Disney expired, Steve Jobs would not easily sign a long-term distribution cooperation agreement with any film company.
When Hollywood film companies set their sights on Pixar Animation Studios, Ryan and the "Spider-Man 3" crew arrived in Wellington, New Zealand, and came to check into the hotel.
Accompanying them are several members of the crew of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King".
On Friday, Orion Films will hold an overseas premiere in Wellington, New Zealand.
"Honorary citizen!"
Looking at Peter Jackson in front of him, Ryan sat on the sofa, touched his chin with his hand, and asked, "I'm an honorary citizen of New Zealand!"
"Yes." Peter Jackson nodded seriously, and said, "This is an invitation personally sent by Governor Sylvia Ross Cartwright, and she hopes you can agree."
New Zealand has no president, only a governor-general and a prime minister.
Among them, the prime minister is the head of the entire country, and the governor has no real power.
New Zealand is a country of the Commonwealth of Nations, and the queen is still nominally the supreme head of the country. The queen will appoint a governor to represent her position in New Zealand. Both the queen and the governor are symbolic and do not hold real power.
The Governor-General of New Zealand is often seen as the nominal head of state.
"Ryan, I think you can agree."
After listening for a while, Sofia Coppola suddenly interrupted and said, "Although the Governor-General has no real power in New Zealand, Sylvia Ross Cartwright herself is very influential in the New Zealand judicial system."
Sylvia Ross-Cartwright is a judge by training, and she was New Zealand's first female judge.
In 1981 she became New Zealand's first female judge.
In 1989, she was appointed the first female Chief Judge of the District Court in New Zealand history.
In 1993 she became the first female High Court judge.
In 1995, she became Chief Justice of New Zealand.
It can be said that her connections are all over the New Zealand judicial system.
"This is of great help to Orion Films' investment in New Zealand." She reminded.
As an outsider, Orion Pictures often needs to learn to compromise and cooperate.
Facing Sylvia Rose Cartwright's invitation, do it well and agree.
"This matter can be regarded as one of the publicity topics of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King." Peter Jackson also hoped that Ryan would agree.
What's more, this matter itself is a matter of mutual benefit.
"Okay, I can agree." Ryan only hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed.
There's no downside for him to be an honorary citizen of New Zealand, and there's even some unexpected perks for him.
Besides, this is also a way of publicity and a cooperative attitude in the future.
With the big sales of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" and "The Lord of the Rings: The Knight of the Two Towers", a large number of tourists have been brought to New Zealand.
The tourism project that Orion Films has cooperated with the New Zealand government has directly become a popular attraction and can bring a steady stream of income.
The success of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" will once again bring more overseas tourists to New Zealand.
Even, from the release of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", "The Lord of the Rings: The Rider of the Two Towers", and "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King".
New Zealand has become a world-renowned tourist resort from an ordinary South Pacific country.
These are the credits of the above three films.
In less than three years, tourism has become one of New Zealand's main development directions, and Orion Films has played an important role.
There is also a studio built in Wellington, which will become the main shooting location of Orion Films, which will undoubtedly drive the economic development of New Zealand.
Sylvia Ross-Cartwright's invitation to Ryan to become an honorary citizen of New Zealand is a manifestation of deepening cooperation between the two parties.
However, "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" released in North America ushered in the first working day.
On Monday, the box office of the film began to decline, with a single-day box office of 18.56 million US dollars.
Even on a weekday, the film grossed nearly $20 million.
It again earned $16.57 million at the box office on Tuesday, $13.52 million on Wednesday, and $12.21 million on Friday.
After four working days, a total of 60.86 million US dollars was earned at the box office.
The North American box office of the film has accumulated as much as 17.8 billion U.S. dollars.
On Friday, Orion Films hosted a grand premiere in Wellington, New Zealand.
For a while, Wellington, the capital of New Zealand, was filled with thousands of people, with more than 100,000 people participating, which was even more sensational than North America.
Including hundreds of media reporters from North America, Qiqi pointed the photographic equipment at Ryan and New Zealand Governor Sylvia Ross Cartwright on the stage.
"It is a great honor that Mr. Ryan Gosling can lead the crew to New Zealand again."
Sylvia Ross Cartwright stood in front of the microphone and said excitedly: "From the filming of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", to the landing of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy in New Zealand, to the completion of the studio of Orion Pictures, .”
"New Zealand has become the main shooting location of Orion Films, and at the same time, it has attracted a large number of overseas film crews to film and shoot, as well as countless tourists from overseas."
"Today, he came to New Zealand again with "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King."
Having said that, Sylvia Ross Cartwright focused on Ryan and continued, "On behalf of the New Zealand government, I have decided that Mr. Ryan Gosling will officially become an honorary citizen of New Zealand from now on..."
In an instant, there was applause from below.
Many people had excited expressions on their faces and couldn't help shouting loudly.
Obviously, I strongly agree with the decision of the New Zealand government and Governor Sylvia Ross Cartwright.
Even, sincerely happy.
Although the director of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is Peter Jackson, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is the one who shot "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", "The Lord of the Rings: The Knight of the Two Towers", "The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King" three classic films.
However, the entire project was originally planned by Ryan himself. First, he bought the copyright of the original book adaptation and the distribution rights of the film, and then decided to direct Peter-Jackson, take a stake in Weta Studios, set the shooting location in New Zealand, and cooperate with the New Zealand government. Develop tourism projects.
As a result, a large number of jobs and overseas tourists have been brought.
Since the release of the first "Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring", the number of inbound tourists to New Zealand has grown at a rate of 3.5% every year for more than two years.
About 10 per cent of those tourists said they were influenced by the movie to travel to New Zealand.
Tourism New Zealand estimates that there will be three films: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The Lord of the Rings: The Rider of the Two Towers, and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Over a three-year global run, it could boost New Zealand's tourism industry by NZ$1.8 billion ($11.5 billion).
