At first, I just wanted to make money

Hasbro is a toy maker. Back then, in order to sell Transformers toys, it made the "Transformers" animation...

Later, he tinkered with the live-action version of the "Transformers" trilogy, which was a big hit.

Then, ambitious to create a movie universe, the first "Super Battleship"...

Hasbro, including the publisher Paramount, is very satisfied with "Super Battleship"-otherwise, it would not be released on the same schedule as "Avengers"!

The cost is as high as $[-] million.

It was supposed to be released on April 4th, but since "Search" was released, it was postponed for two weeks, and it will be released on May 18nd...

According to the forecast of the introduction Fang Zhongying, the box office of "Super Battleship" should be around 5 million - after all, the "Transformers" series is too fierce...

As for "Avengers", about 3 million...

This prediction is normal. The box office predictions in the industry are usually based on historical works, current period and genre...

After all, the Marvel superhero movie, the highest-grossing "Iron Man 2" is only 1.75 million...

The box office of "Thor", "The Incredible Hulk", and "Captain America" ​​didn't even exceed [-] million!

The prediction of [-] million is already considered an overestimate.

Therefore, Chen Xi doesn't quite understand why Shen Xudong is worried about "The Avengers" and rarely mentions "Super Battleship"...

Shen Xudong is not easy to explain...

But he also thinks there should be a movie on May [-]st!
Tianmei is the leader in the mainland. Five or six domestic films are released at the same time to fight against Hollywood. As a leader, shouldn't it be a style?
The problem is... a game of death!
The current number of screens is 1.08, and the upper limit of the market is less than 1.5 million. According to Shen Xudong's prediction, the total box office in May is at most 18 billion...

"Reunion" took 6 million, "Men in Black 3" took 5 million, "Super Battleship" took 3 million...

The remaining movies combined together took [-] million...

You must know that the movies released in May are not only domestic films, but also many approved films, such as "Wolf War", "Three Musketeers", "Soul Chariot 2"...

This is not as simple as a dead end...

After thinking about it, Shen Xudong asked, "What does the company think?"

"The company wants to release an approved film..."

"Is there something wrong? We have agreed to fight against Hollywood, and we must use Chinese films... What other options are there?"

"Why don't we play the restored version of "New Dragon Inn" or the restored version of "Huang Feihong"?"

"...What's the point? If you want to fight, fight hard. The opponent has a bomb. You say a pair of 3?"

"You can't take out Ning Hao's "One Mirror to the End", can you?"

"... "

Shen Xudong glared at her, what are you kidding, "One Mirror to the End" is a movie with a box office of one billion, you use it to PK "Reunion"?
Even if you win, it's still a miserable victory...

This is the surprise weapon Shen Xudong prepared for the Lunar New Year...

After pondering for a while, Shen Xudong said: "How about this? Su Lun asked me about the schedule in the first two rounds. I guess one of their youth film plans is almost finished. You go to her and ask her to work overtime and finish it quickly." Post-production, and release!"

Chen Xi was stunned for a while, and then asked, "Youth movie?"

"What's wrong with youth movies? Youth movies are currently the genre that best meets the needs of mainstream moviegoers. Last year, "A Little Thing of First Love" has proved the potential of this genre..."

"...Okay, let me ask!"

"Hmm..." Shen Xudong nodded, ready to continue reading the documents, when he looked up, Chen Xi was still in the office...

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"Nazha came to me two days ago... said you were indifferent to her... asked me if I..."

"Bullshit!"

Shen Xudong immediately interrupted her: "I haven't contacted her at all, how can I talk about indifference?"

"...How do I explain to her?"

"Explain what?"

"Explain that you are a ruthless scumbag!"

"What unplugs Ruthless..."

Shen Xudong explained righteously: "The first day you met me...I just don't want to delay the girls' search for true love...I can be sure that I am definitely not true love, so why delay their youth? I do this for their own good !"

"...It's a pity that you don't want to be an actor...You are too thick-skinned..." Chen Xi couldn't help but marvel: "You are so shameless, you can definitely do a speech!"

"Those who betray me, I will give him 100 million, and those who are loyal to me will be hundreds of millions in the future..."

Chen Xi looked puzzled: "What?"

"Forgot, there is one more sentence: I understand! Applause!"

"…Neuropathy…"

……

Tianmei specially allocated [-] million yuan for the shooting of youth films, and approved four films, "The Year in a Hurry", "The Left Ear", "The Best of Us", and "To Youth"...

The heroine must be her own.

However, these are not the ones that have been finalized, but the movie version of "Why Shengxiaomo"!

This movie version uses the same actors as the TV series version, the heroine Tang Yan, the male protagonist Zhong Hanliang, and even the second female lead is Wang Likun... The director is replaced by the Olympic bid...

This movie is a bit of a twist. Originally, this project should have been approved directly after the TV series was broadcast, but the copyright of the movie was taken away by Song Ge, who wanted to invite Zhang Ziyi to act...

Fortunately, Zhang Ziyi met the triple door...

Oh, Zhang Ziyi and Song Ge are old acquaintances. Yuan Shikong and Song Ge established Perfect Pictures, and the first investment was given to Zhang Ziyi's "Perfect"...

In fact, Song Ge was able to become the general manager of Wanda Films, and Zhang Ziyi contributed a lot!
She has a good relationship with a boss named Ding Mingshan, who is a shareholder of Wanda.

Make new friends and remember old ones.

Zhang Ziyi, who fell in love with Ding Mingshan at first sight, introduced her old acquaintance Song Ge to join Wanda Films... Therefore, when Wanda Films went public, many people were surprised to find that Zhang Ziyi's mother was actually a shareholder of Wanda Films, holding 1800 million original shares. Let's say it's worth 10 billion!

Oh, later, after Brother Song found Dajin Zhangjun, he did not forget Zhang Ziyi.Zhang Jun invested 90 billion to establish the Houde Qianhai Fund. Song Ge, as the fund manager, immediately used the money to help several celebrity friends establish Star VC.

This company is very famous, its partners include Ren Quan, Li Lianhua, Huang Xiaoming, Huang Bo, and of course Zhang Ziyi!
Pull it back.Zhang Ziyi met the triple door, Wanda Films had no interest in developing "Why Shengxiaomo", until the middle of last year, the company took back the film adaptation rights of "Why Shengxiaomo"...

In fact, it's quite complicated-in short, Wanda Films is also one of the producers now.

The cost is 3500 million, of which the advertising placement is close to 3000 million, which means that as long as it is released, it will basically be profitable!
According to the popularity of the "Why Shengxiaomo" TV series, as long as the movie of the same name doesn't pull your hips, it's easy to break [-] million at the box office...

It's up to you!

But Tang Yan's management team is quite depressed - why should it be released on the same schedule as the Hollywood blockbuster?
Shouldn't such a movie be released on Valentine's Day or Lunar New Year?
Then Chen Xi said directly: "It's useless, don't look at the schedule with old eyes anymore, let me tell you, no matter which schedule has Hollywood blockbusters!"
