Director of Rebirth of Xiangjiang

Chapter 770 There is a thing called ambition (for subscription)

Zhao Hong spent a lot of effort to keep Qingxia from crying, and the two of them were at ease with each other.

Lin's mother in the distance shook her head when she saw it. Her daughter was really hopeless. She couldn't say anything as a mother now. Just crying gave her a headache.

This trick made her not know what to say. Father Lin couldn't stand this tune and rarely came here, and it was Mother Lin who stayed here directly.

This is already a basic operation.

"That red, why do you want to write such a novel? It's too academic! It gives me a headache."

Zhao Hong and Qingxia chatted about their own novels, and she shook her head. She was not interested in this kind of affairs between big countries. She liked that kind of love novels, preferably with a little bourgeois sentiment.

It would be best if the hero can tolerate some hypocrisy of the heroine.

"It's very interesting. It's just that you don't like big countries."

Zhao Hong shook her head and said, women just like to be lingering and sentimental, but their men like to lie on the knees of drunken beauties, wake up and take power in the world, the appreciation point is different.

When he was writing "The Rise of a Great Power", he would follow the development of the great country he was writing about, and his mood would change accordingly. Sometimes he was excited and hard to understand, and sometimes he showed disappointment, regretting some stupid actions of this country.

"Hong, do you think the child in my stomach is really a boy?"

"Yes, I am 80.00% sure of this."

"Isn't there 20.00% uncertain!"

"Hey, I'm talking about my daughter-in-law. I'm saying this modestly. Do you understand? Just put your heart in your stomach! Boys can't run away."

"Well, you said boy, what should we name him?"

"It is too early!"

"How early? It's May [-]st now, and the baby in my stomach is already six months old, and it will be born in another four months!"

"Here, let me think about it."

……

Zhao Hong, who has difficulty naming, was once again struggling to think of a name. This thing really tested her wisdom!

The last name is Xiaohu, which is a bit random!
But he couldn't bear it and he didn't like many Qingxias, but this one was more pleasing to his eyes.

Zhao Hong also learned about her own movie on May [-]st. The global box office of "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" is basically over now.

The box office of this movie in Xiangjiang is not too high, that is, more than 100 million. This is still filmed by Zhao Hong, and it will be lower if it is someone else.In the current Xiangjiang annual top ten are not counted.

After the operation of DreamWorks these years, there are too many good films in Xiangjiang.

Basically, one or two or three blockbuster movies are released every month. There are more than a dozen powerful film companies, plus many small companies. It’s all yours and I’ll be on stage. It’s so lively!

So far, the number of people in Xiangjiang has been approaching 900 million. This number is 600 times that of [-] million in [-]. With the increase of JDP per capita, the consumption level of Xiangjiang is really impressive.

In a city with the highest movie box office in Asia, of course part of the box office is contributed by tourists, and these people come from all over the world.

Especially during the film festival, the box office of Hong Kong movies is 2000 million Hong Kong dollars more than usual. This cake is still very delicious for many film companies.

So every April is a time when gods fight.

The box office of "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" in other Asian countries totaled more than 4000 million US dollars. Overall, the box office is not bad, especially in Japan, and even South Korea.

What I want to talk about is the box office in Europe. This time it directly exploded, reaching nearly 7000 million US dollars. This figure is the best box office here among all his films.

This can be regarded as expanding a new market.

It has more than 5000 million US dollars in the United States. This movie itself is a Hollywood movie, which is considered a good box office among literary and artistic films. What I want to say is that this movie won the Oscar for Best Newcomer this year, and this crown was won by DiCaprio.

Zhao Hong is too embarrassed to talk about this, but this movie won the best foreign language film award in the original time and space, and his award is much smaller.

Of course, there are reasons for this. The main reason is that the film's promotion time is relatively short, and it also has to premiere in Berlin. This leads to the fact that few people have seen this film before the Oscars. Winning this award is considered a success. I'm relatively lucky.

But it's not nothing, it won five awards including best film nomination, best director nomination, best actress nomination and so on.

Zhao Hong added another halo, the best director nomination, which can be regarded as breaking the record of the Chinese in the Oscars, and the media also carried out large-scale reports.

In addition to the above, there are tens of millions of dollars in other places, including from Africa and Lao Maozi. DreamWorks excavated these places.

Especially in Lao Maozi, this year DreamWorks Cinemas has set up a construction model here again, but it is still under construction. It is hard to say when this cinema will be scaled up.

It can be said that as long as there is a little developed place in the world, there will be DreamWorks theaters. This is already a paranoia engraved in the bones.

Zhao Hong is also so happy. There are some places that make money or not, regardless of whether they make money or not. They must let them see their own company's movies, or Xiangjiang's movies.

In fact, there is nothing that does not make money, it is only the length of time for cost recovery.

This is really not a problem for DreamWorks, which is currently rich and powerful.

Besides, as long as the channels are established, it is not only movies that make money for DreamWorks, but products from other places.

The movie "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" has a global box office of [-] million US dollars, which directly caught the attention of many people.

Can literary films make money like this?
In fact, they don't know that this is still an exposed part, and they don't know much about other places where they make money. It can be said that this time DreamWorks Clothing Company has made a lot of money.

Several styles of the same style of Marlena's clothing have aroused the interest of many people once they were put on sale.

The popularity is unimaginable. In just two months, tens of millions of sets were sold. Each set of these clothes can earn about 30 Hong Kong dollars, which means that this is a net income of [-] billion.

Dreamworks Clothing also made a big face in Europe, so the rewards are really amazing. The actual benefits are not counted, and the invisible wealth is also visible.

It can be said that in this wave, the clothing companies under DreamWorks have made the most money!
The profit made by other companies in this movie is not less than one billion yuan, among which video tapes, peripherals, audio and video, etc. are all places to make money.

Zhao Hong discovered a problem, that is, it is most profitable for him to shoot modern movies, especially peripheral ones.

Many departments in DreamWorks now want him to shoot several movies a year, so that the performance will increase by at least a few percentage points.

They all had the feeling that when Xi Meng was at the publishing house, they wished they could lock up Zhao Hong and do more writing, but they just thought about it.

At present, Xi Meng is very impressive in running a hotel, and this woman is very ambitious.

A year is basically spent at work, 360 days, and [-] days are spent on the plane.

At present, the scale of the Peninsula Hotel is increasing continuously. In addition to the cultural characteristic hotels in the mainland, there are about ten hotels in Europe and the United States.

There are three such hotels in the United States, one in Los Angeles, one in New York, and the last one in Hollywood.

It's also luxurious enough.

As for the other seven, they are located in world-famous metropolises, such as London, Paris, Berlin, Venice and so on.

These hotels are all top-notch, and it is not an exaggeration to say that each of them is a seven-star hotel.

I am currently planning to build such a hotel in Moscow, and this matter has been put on the agenda.

It can be said that since Xi Meng took over as the general manager of DreamWorks Hotel, he has been aggressively encircling the area, spending a huge amount of money.

Now it is slowly starting to make a profit, but it is really far away to recover the cost, mainly because Ximeng has to keep building hotels.

It's still the kind of hotel that belongs to your own house.

That's a lot of money to start with.

Fortunately, DreamWorks made a fortune in Japan last year, and the company's profits are also amazing, so the company will not have loans or anything.

Although DreamWorks has been given the impression of low-key development in the past few years, in fact it has been investing heavily in investments, including billions to tens of billions in hotels, electricity, shipping, automobiles, etc. No wait.

In addition to the money earned from investing in the Japanese market, DreamWorks Investment Company also earned not a small amount, plus DreamWorks' other relatively mature industries.

This makes it easier to maintain the current situation.

At present, the various subsidiaries of DreamWorks are developing quite rapidly. Among them, the subsidiaries that rely on channels are steadily advancing rapidly around the world, following the company's footsteps.

Every company's annual profit is growing at a rate of more than [-]%.

Up to now, there are no big agents in the world, and they are basically replaced by the direct sales of DreamWorks. The effect of this is amazing. There is no middleman to make the difference.

Take the toy company of DreamWorks as an example. In the past, it was an agent in large and small regions all over the world. This person basically took 30.00% of the profits, but now this part belongs to DreamWorks itself, and the profits are directly reflected. up.

Of course, DreamWorks still has agents, but they are places that DreamWorks itself is unwilling to dabble in. Where the market is not mature at all, we will wait for some people to open up the market first.

If you enter again then, the effect will be better.

For her own company, Zhao Hong only needs to know what she knows, and generally doesn't care about some small details, and the old lady handles them very well.

Over the years, his elder sister is very good at the company's affairs, and in the past year, he has recruited or promoted a large number of outstanding employees of the company from all over the world to take up important positions.

This caused the company's affairs to be handled more smoothly. Except for major decisions, everything can be executed well, which made Zhao Hong feel more at ease.

"Chairman, we have almost finished the film preparations in the early stage, and it is estimated that it will be completed in half a month, and we will be able to start the film by then."

"How are the actors preparing?"

"Zhou Xingxing has been studying the script every day for more than a month. As for other people, they have also rejected all commercial activities or other movies, and they are all focused on this movie."

"Yeah, this movie Supreme Treasure is very important, no amount of preparation is too much."

"All our shooting equipment has to be transported to Beibao Film and Television City in Yinchuan Town early. You know this movie, and it took a long time to shoot there."

"Don't worry, we are equipped with the best shooting equipment in Beibao, Yinchuan Town..."

……

Zhao Hong and Li Huiming chatted about the preparations for "A Chinese Journey to the West". In the professional field, Limei is still a bit lacking. She is responsible for the financial budget and the matching of personnel.

Li Huiming is responsible for more professional matters. The two of them divide the work and cooperate. After a few months, the early stage of "Westward Journey" is almost completed.

Zhao Hong was also quite happy to hear that, he was at home or in Xiangjiang during this time, and he also wanted to go out for a walk, or shoot a movie.

The movie "A Chinese Journey to the West" really condensed a lot of his hard work. He didn't plagiarize the novel alone. He recreated it on the basis of "The Legend of Wukong" and the original space-time movie.

After more than ten years, this novel has become a classic in many people's minds. It is a model for contemporary interpretation of "Journey to the West", and it is also a manifestation of modern culture's reconstruction of Journey to the West.

The novel has been published many times, and the sales volume has reached more than 3000 million copies in more than ten years, a figure that Zhao Hong never thought of before.

At present, book fans have spread all over Southeast Asia, the Mainland, Xiangjiang, Wanwan, Japan, and South Korea. There are also many fans in Europe and the United States.

Zhao Hong believes that after making this movie, she will not be treated coldly like Yuan Shikong.

The appearance of this movie in the original time and space was very abrupt, and the thinking was very advanced. Many people could not understand the meaning of it, and it has been a few years since they understood it.

The appearance of this movie in the original time and space is entirely the genius conception of Zhou Xingxing and Liu Zhenwei. This kind of inspiration is not universal.

There is a saying that goes half a step beyond others is a genius, and one step beyond is a madman.

Advanced products are generally not immediately understood by the public. It takes time for their value to be truly understood.

In order to face this advance, Zhao Hong had made arrangements more than ten years ago.

Therefore, he is not at all worried that the box office of this movie will be poor!

It even has big plans for its box office, hoping to break through the 7000 million mark at the local box office in Hong Kong next year.

Therefore, he plans to make a large-scale production of this movie, and the shooting cost will be HK$[-] million.

Moreover, the total salary of the actors is only 1000 million Hong Kong dollars, which is only a small part.
