The refugee camp on the Thai-Myanmar border is the largest of nine in Thailand, where people usually flee to Thailand because of instability in Myanmar. ( . . M)
Visiting the refugee camps was a strange feeling for Daniel, and it became more and more strange.
When he first visited the Dadaab refugee camp in Kenya, he really felt sympathy for the refugees and was willing to provide them with some help, but he knew that more often, he just hoped to use these actions to shape Personal image and company image. Becoming a goodwill ambassador of UNHCR is not because he intends to devote himself to solving this problem, but this title adds a layer of sacred light to him.
However, as the Technology Benefits All Beings Foundation has more and more projects around the world, and it receives more and more donations and spends more money, Daniel gradually changed his mind.
Although his life is not extravagant compared to some big stars and rich people, he owns a mansion, a luxury car, can go to Hawaii or the Caribbean for vacation at any time, and can charter a plane to China... This makes him face some problems. When praying for a little clean water to drink and a refugee with a shelter from the wind, I really felt a sense of guilt.
Maybe he's getting older and softer.
On the second day after arriving in the refugee camp, Daniel visited a family of Karen people who walked for several weeks to escape the corvee and atrocities in Myanmar - a little girl with big eyes, Chinma, whose legs are still not very sharp , There is a lack of adequate medical conditions in the refugee camp, and she cannot bear such a long walk, and her parents do not have the energy to help their three children.
Daniel sent her some pictures, and more supplies will be distributed by the refugee camp.
Chinma’s eyes were still bright, and she couldn’t see the sadness on her parents’ faces. She happily flipped through the pictures above—some fairy tales written in Karen script, from Denmark, China, and India.
Maybe we should provide them with some educational help.
That's a big field. Sana from France, the manager accompanying the foundation, said with a heavy expression.
For a foundation, every expansion decision is critical. After all, it is an organization that accepts donations, and all expenditures must wait for verification and approval. Previously, Plutos injected additional funds to make the foundation agree to launch the Giant Panda Survival Project, which was just a separate project, and It is in line with the foundation's development plan extending to the direction of climate and environmental protection—but education is not,
Education is a powerful subject. UNESCO has always been committed to doing this, but it has high requirements for foundations—it is not like an endowment program. An educational program requires human input, and it is difficult to ensure continuity.
Sana understands Daniel's feelings, but as a professional, she must let Daniel restrain his kindness.
...
12.24 million.
Daniel waited until the numbers in Los Angeles.
Bad Teacher was officially launched on the 24th, with 3,249 screens. For a work with an investment of 20 million, the salary is not low. Cameron Diaz and Daniel's charisma were fully displayed. This is the first time that MGM Pictures has been online since it was acquired by the film industry. It can be said that it has attracted the attention of countless people. Those inside Hollywood, outside Hollywood, and even MGM's own people are all observing whether MGM under Daniel's rule can be reborn from the ashes.
from this angle. Bad Teacher was indeed entrusted with an important task.
In fact, many people are quite confused as to why MGM insisted on releasing Bad Teacher before High School Musical, because at present, due to the success of the High School Musical Cup, the film High School Musical has been regarded as a summer movie. The low-cost film that is most likely to break through. so. If MGM takes High School Musical as its first shot, it may be more beneficial to boost the confidence of all parties.
Daniel did get specific advice, but he ultimately dismissed the idea.
Both Lon Meyer and Helen Deller were present at the time, and it was a deputy from the publishing department who made this opinion.
Yes, we have 'High School Musical' now, and we know it's going to make money, so we have this opportunity to make sure that MGM's first reorganized movie is profitable. But. I don't think MGM really needs to Do this.” Daniel looked at the new and old executives of MGM sincerely, “We should not be afraid of failure, let alone adjust the plan for a start that has no practical meaning. After MGM has experienced so many setbacks, It should be stronger, not timid. Bad Teacher could fail, but so what? Who hasn't failed in these Hollywood studios?
No. Meyer added.
Daniel laughed with everyone, Yeah, but only so many films have been made, so it has no chance of failing, and with more and more projects, failure is inevitable. No one can always succeed, Daniel Sandler is also impossible. So, I can understand the idea of adjusting the schedule, but I am not willing to do it, because I hope that MGM will say goodbye to fear and become really strong—so strong that it ignores the possibility of failure.”
The numbers Mayer gave him can basically show that Bad Teacher has succeeded. As for how far it can reach, it depends on the next results.
But soon, three days later, the box office of the first weekend was released. Bad Teacher ranked first this week with 43.33 million, only 30,000 US dollars more than Life Remote Control, which was also released in the first week. The Remote Control of Life starring comedy king Adam Sandler and Pearl Harbor actress Kate Beckinsale scored 43.3 million in the first weekend, with more than 500 more screens. Still got cut down by Bad Teacher. As for the third place Cars, it received 34.64 million U.S. dollars, which helped it to accumulate a total box office of 100 million 60 thousand. For Pixar, the result of three weeks of release is not satisfactory—it is absolutely impossible to surpass Wall-E.
Strength + luck, scored a weekly championship for Bad Teacher.
Hollywood Reporter reported this week's box office list with Bad Teachers Are Cuter Than Remote Controls. On the other hand, Entertainment Weekly deliberately provoked controversy with the title Daniel killed Adam Sandler off the court without any bottom line.
After the news that Bad Teacher and Life Remote Control were released on the same day, the dispute between the two Sandlers was caught by the media.
Although Daniel has never had a chance to respond, and Adam also expressed I hope everyone will have good grades to calm the situation, but the comedy king and the almighty king fought against each other in the field of comedy-although Daniel did not appear in Bad Teacher at all, it was still Excited a lot of people. Adam is a rare top actor in the field of comedy in recent years. He is also a member of the 20 million club and a frequent visitor to the top ten earning stars on the Forbes list. Such an opponent can basically be compared with Daniel.
You know, as Daniel becomes stronger and stronger, there are fewer and fewer people who can fight against him. After all, if it was something like the new Superman Braden Rose, no one would think that he and Daniel were qualified to be put together—then there was nothing to see.
Entertainment Weekly did its best to provocateur in its report.
Although, we can't ignore the advantage of Cameron Diaz over Kate Beckinsale, but considering that Daniel Sandler didn't go off the field himself, he just stood behind and manipulated the situation. Maybe Adam Sandler The advantage is even greater, and the original theaters obviously saw it this way before—they gave 3,700 yuan to the screen of Life Remote Control, but only 3,200 yuan to Bad Teacher. Daniel's shadow is against Adam himself, Everyone seemed willing to side with Adam.
When the box office data was announced, Bad Teacher beat Life Remote Control by a narrow margin of $30,000. I think this group of people should understand that Daniel is not so easy to deal with even if he is just a shadow. They need to pay a little price for their contempt. Taking over from Christopher Reeve who has passed away, Braden Ross will play the role of the new Superman. Although it has not yet been fully released, the gap of nearly 10 million may not explain the problem.
Now, Hollywood may need to refresh its own concept again: when calculating the box office potential of a movie that Daniel produces but does not act in, an extra member of the 20 million club should be added, or in other words, Daniel’s shadow is a new 20 million club member. In addition, everyone should also admit that Daniel's undefeated legend is not a legend at all, but because his influence is strong enough to cover the works he invested in, which helped those works succeed.
The exaggerated report of Entertainment Weekly certainly does not represent the mainstream thinking in Hollywood. No one thinks that the movies made by Daniel should be treated differently. The success of Bad Teacher is more due to the subject matter and Cameron's credit. But to say that this has not touched some people in the slightest would be an understatement.
Especially some people who are swinging.
For example, Fox, they are negotiating with the film industry to shoot the sequel of Night at the Museum. Now, they may hope that they can get back as much investment as possible.
Even though Fantastic Nights isn't out yet, that has no bearing on Fox's decision not to. If the first film fails, then the second film will not start filming, and the agreement is useless paper. If the first film succeeds, a larger investment ratio means more income. And in the third case, when it becomes a chicken rib, presumably the film industry will not take advantage of the investment ratio to consume Fox's cash flow-there is no obvious benefit, is there?
In addition to Wonderful Night, Fox's masterpiece Avatar has also reached the moment when it needs to make a final decision.
It is a difficult problem for Murdoch whether to do it himself or pull in to do it together. (To be continued.)
