MTL - You Made Me a Superstar-Chapter 587 A battlefield without gunpowder (3)
Probably, "King Kong Tiger" is about to end its curtain call in a very unwilling but helpless way in China.
Although Tony Auman had already prepared himself, when the ending was really presented to him, he still found it very difficult to accept.
This is a DV company and a superhero movie carefully prepared by him.
It carries the hopes of too many DV companies, hoping that it can become a movie that saves the decline of superhero movies and aspires to the top of the world.
However…
Failure always runs through life, followed by blows of disappointment.
Since the "Lizardman" or "Righteous Man", the entire Chinese market's interest in "superhero" movies has dropped to a freezing point, especially after the release of "Spiderman", "King Kong Tiger" seems to be Lost competitiveness for no apparent reason...
""Spider-Man" has completely dominated the Chinese region, and even surpassed our "King Kong" at the daily box office in North America, God! Could it be that under the same schedule, our film is not as good as that made by a layman? Superhero movie? Damn it, Tony Allman, did you eat shit?"
"Our DV company has countless comic fans, resources and connections that can never be explained. Why is this happening? Tell me, Mr. Tony Auman, we have become a joke, a joke of the entire Hollywood!"
"You know what Chloe Paige, the **** who did Lizardman, what did he say about his new movie, Wolverine? He said he made a real superhero movie ! Said we don't understand superhero movies, let alone fans! Damn..."
"I thought "Lizardman" was the biggest failure, but I didn't expect that "King Kong" was the real failure of the movie, a pile of rubbish!"
"..."
Late at night.
Tony Auman came out of the meeting room.
In the previous conference room, new projects were discussed, and the company's future decisions and future arrangements were discussed.
But in today's conference room, it was uncharacteristically full of curses. The chairman of the DV company sent Missy to come to the conference room in person and lashed out at everyone, and Tony Auman became even more Pai Missy's key care recipient scolded from the moment he was seated to the end, and it was very vulgar and unpleasant. When Tony Auman came out, he felt as if he was soaked in feces, and the stench was unbearable.
Tony Auman adjusted his clothes. Although he was a little angry, he didn't show any anger.
He understands Pai Missi's anger, and understands that the form of "King Kong Tiger" has become more and more severe!
"Spider-Man", which was once inconspicuous and no one cared about, has now become the new favorite of the box office. Since the four major theaters have completely released the introduction of this film, the daily box office of "Spider-Man" has been climbing crazily, except for the daily box office. In addition to catching up with "King Kong Tiger", the heat and popularity on the Internet, including the sales of Laomei's peripherals, are all soaring crazily...
Even though "King Kong Tiger" resorted to various means to suppress it, they couldn't suppress the increasingly crazy popularity of "Spider-Man".
Everyone knows that "Spider-Man" has become a "phenomenal" superhero movie. According to the analysis of DV company's internal analysts, the global box office of "Spider-Man" may break through the astonishing box office data of 800 million US dollars!
Tony Auman naturally felt heavy, but he was helpless.
Hollywood movies have tried to suppress Zhou Yang...
They expelled Zhou Yang, they dug up the actors of "Spider-Man", and even suppressed it in major media, preventing "Spider-Man" from being released in the mainstream media and the four major theaters...
Even Tony Auman felt that it was impossible for Zhou Yang to be turned over in this situation!
But "Spider-Man" just took advantage of the financial crisis to rise strongly when everyone was in danger, so what can he do?
Tony Auman sighed.
Then he returned to the office and looked at today's European and American movie circles.
"King Kong" not only has to face the impact of "Spider-Man", but also has to face the menacing premiere of "Alteration"...
Under the attack of the two films, Tony Auman has no idea how much box office "King Kong" can get in Europe and America!
"Mr. Tony Auman, Huaxing's two films have also entered the premiere of the four major cinemas. Due to the relationship between the promotion and their own themes, the schedule and occupancy rate of these two films in the four major cinemas are not very good. , but they have a lot of resources in Xingyang Cinemas, and the premiere is also very lively..."
"Star Ocean Cinemas?"
"Yes, Xingyang Cinemas has become the exclusive theater for Huaxing Movies, and only plays their own movies..."
"Oh!"
"Although, but... does he really think that their company's own movies can be compared to Hollywood movies? Damn, I don't believe there will be such a day!"
The assistant looked at the information of Xingyang Cinemas, and the corners of his mouth were slightly twitched, obviously feeling that what he said was a bit fanciful.
Tony Auman shook his head silently.
Tony Auman had to admire Zhou Yang's courage and vision.
At the moment when the financial crisis was extremely severe, everyone was reducing their industries and trying every means to tide over the difficulties. Instead, the Chinese went against the trend and carried out various crazy expansions.
How many people ridicule, how many people doubt, how many people think he is a fool...
However!
He succeeded!
He can succeed once, so, will he succeed the second time?
Or…
Time passed little by little.
Tony Auman felt that he was caught in a huge vortex. In this vortex, Zhou Yang's name kept popping up.
One by one, like science fiction, almost impossible pictures flashed in his mind...
After an unknown amount of time, he heard the knock on the door again.
Then the assistant pushed the door and entered with a heavy expression on his face.
"Director, the box office is out!"
"How many?"
"The total box office of the premiere of "Alteration" is 53 million U.S. dollars!"
"Fifty-three million dollars?"
"yes!"
"Didn't break 60 million?"
"No."
"How many movies do we have?"
"Nine million dollars..."
"How many?"
“Only $9 million left!”
"What about Spider-Man?"
"Fourteen million dollars, but the combined box office of the two films "Liao Zhai Painted Skin 2" and "Jin Yiwei 2" is actually 10 million dollars...The movie produced by Huaxing really kept them alive..."
"..."
Tony Auman looked at the total box office on the 20th.
He suddenly became more and more heavy in his heart. Just as he thought, under the attack of "Mutation" and "Spiderman", "King Kong Tiger" did not look good at the box office on the 20th.
Not only is China ugly, but the box office outside of China is even worse!
But Tony Auman no longer cared about the situation of "King Kong Tiger". He frowned and stared at the box office of "Alteration".
This movie, which was carefully crafted by Hollywood sci-fi master Daleson for five years, has a terrifying box office dominance. The daily box office of 53 million US dollars is amazing enough.
but…
It seems that it still has not reached the box office expectations!
He had privately heard that Dilson's forecast for the movie was $60 million, or more!
Delson almost treats this movie as a sci-fi milestone movie!
However…
……………
Backing back to Laomei, Dyerson received the global box office report of "Alteration" just after getting off the plane.
After reading the report, Dilson had a flash of disbelief on his face.
Although the box office of the world premiere of "Alteration" broke records, it was far below expectations.
Not enough!
Fifty-three million dollars, far from enough!
Although it was still a very impressive result, Dilson still felt an indescribable gap deep in his heart.
There was no gunpowder in this war, and it was supposed to be a one-sided war, but from the very beginning, there were a few more bad omens.
He looked up, feeling a little haze hanging over his head.
After returning to Paramount, Delson didn't feel much depression, including the main creative team of "Alteration" were very excited about the box office.
The premiere of "Alteration" is actually very good for them. Although the premiere did not break Dyerson's expectations, it is still a big hit movie. If the follow-up box office is stronger, it will break the global historical record. , it's not a problem...
But Dilson's mood became more and more heavy. In two days, a movie called "Klein the Magician" will be released.
This is a movie produced by Warner Bros. After this movie entered the market, it is impossible for the "Alteration" family to dominate. It really broke the historical record.
And Huaxia Market...
After thinking about the two movies that will be released in Huaxia, Delson felt full of crisis again in an instant!
He never thought that one day, Huaxia movies would make him nervous.
"The Grandmaster 2", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"...
The screenwriters of the two films are written by Zhou Yang...
The word-of-mouth and box office of "The Grandmaster 1" in the world is very good, and "The Grandmaster 2" will naturally not be too bad. As for "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", although there is no rumor about this movie, the director of this movie is Shen Changwei. Over the past few years, his "Hero" has exploded in popularity in Europe and the United States...
Perhaps, in Europe, America and overseas regions, there is no pressure on these movies, but in China, the release of these movies is destined to lower the upper limit of his "Change". If there is another blockbuster in these movies, then...
The lifespan of "Change" in China may have to be suppressed again.
The more Dilson thought about it, the more he frowned, and the more he thought about it, the heavier it became...
Vaguely, he actually felt that the road to the top of China in "Change" was about to go bankrupt!
He suddenly thought of that Chinese man!
"It's obviously a different director, but why, why does it feel like he's singled out our Hollywood movies?"
"..."
