Entertainment Empire System
Chapter 1005: Ice and Fire
Disney's style of doing things is too arbitrary.
Eisner is also relying on Disney's status in cartoons to not take Hollywood seriously. Therefore, at this time, people in the entertainment industry don't mind watching Disney's jokes. The defeat of Pearl Harbor is a sure thing. .
As for belittling Disney, this is what many reporters and film critics want to see. How to better belittle Disney? There is only one opponent, and Ye Ming's "Slumdog Millionaire" is the best choice. .
Eisner looked down upon Ye Ming at all beforehand and clamored to teach Ye Ming a lesson. As a result, he ended up in the current situation and Pearl Harbor was completely lost. No one mentions the box office of Pearl Harbor anymore. In terms of artistry, Pearl Harbor has not become a classic. Michael Bay wants to make a classic, but in fact it proves that his directorial skills still need to be improved.
Therefore, under such a situation, even if it is to disparage Pearl Harbor, everyone will still praise Ye Ming's "Slumdog Millionaire". What's more, Ye Ming's movie has indeed brought everyone a a unique perspective.
The myth of getting rich overnight has been very popular from ancient times to the present.
What's more, Ye Ming used this method to shoot a comedy movie, but he actually shot a tragedy. The result is that Ye Ming's movie has a box office of 140 million US dollars in the United States, while Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon has a box office of 180 million US dollars in the United States, and a global box office of 222 million US dollars. However, the sale price of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is confidential, and people in the industry finally estimated the price at more than 10 million US dollars.
It won't exceed 20 million. Some people even say that the overseas rights of this film were sold by Columbia Pictures for 6 million US dollars. I don't know the details of this, and it is a commercial secret. Anyway, the director of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon didn't make much money, that's for sure.
However, Ye Ming's movie is different. For Ye Ming's movie, 20 million US dollars of the 140 million US dollars were given to Time Warner. After all, Time Warner also took a stake in it. This is what Time Warner should get.
If it weren't for the help of Time Warner, the movie would not have been released so smoothly in the United States.
There are also 20 million in film distribution fees, and Ye Ming's income is 100 million U.S. dollars. From this movie alone, Ye Ming made a lot of money.
Ye Ming's company is also registered in the Cayman Islands, so it does not have to pay huge taxes.
This made the U.S. government very unhappy, so it stepped up its monopoly prosecution against Ye Ming's Huihuang.com, and this lawsuit was fought quite a bit. The final domestic box office of "Slumdog Millionaire" was 190 million, which is quite good in China.
After all, the investment in this movie is only 30 million.
Even at the domestic box office, Ye Ming still gets a share of 60 to 70 million, which is a lot of money.
When Ye Ming returned from overseas, more than 300 reporters surrounded Ye Ming at the airport. Everyone knew that Ye Ming's movie had made a huge profit, 100 million US dollars. It made 100 million US dollars at the box office in the United States. At the global box office, Ye Ming earned 128 million, a figure that has never appeared before. In other words, what everyone knows now is that Ye Ming is a billionaire.
Even if everyone knew that Ye Ming made money before, and knew that Ye Ming must be a billionaire, there was no intuitive numerical expression of how much money Ye Ming made. But this time, reporters easily calculated that Ye Ming's movie earned US$120 million.
This number can only be described as terrifying, there is no other adjective. Everyone surrounded Ye Ming and conducted an impromptu interview. What Ye Ming really expressed was his inner world.
He hopes that there will be fewer poor children begging and that the tragedy in the movie will not happen again in real life. This is what Ye Ming has been asking for. As for the reporter's question about what Ye Ming's next movie will be, Ye Mingxiang said without even thinking about it, it will be Zhou Xingxing's Shaolin football player.
This has already been agreed upon with Zhou Xingxing, so there is nothing that cannot be disclosed. This is more or less a promotion for Zhou Xingxing.
Then, the director of Mango Terrace directly picked up Ye Ming. At this time, Mr. Ou Yangyang said very politely in the car: "Mr. Ye, I came to you this time because I hope you can participate in our TV station's Happy Camp. This is something that movie fans have been waiting for. I hope you can think about it."
Ye Ming pondered for a while and said, "I'm afraid it won't work. At this time, I will quickly participate in the Olympic bid activities when I come back. I guess I may not have time to go to Mango Terrace."
Ye Ming is a busy man. Everyone knows this. Therefore, Ouyang Balcony is naturally prepared. He said sincerely: "This is not a problem. I have already asked both hosts to come to the capital." I have temporarily found a studio where I will record a special episode of Happy Camp.
At a time like this, just to not waste your time. We packed and transported the stage directly by train. "
The cooperation between Mango Channel and Ye Ming does not last for a day or two. Therefore, they still know Ye Ming very well. After all, in such a situation, they know very well what kind of person Ye Ming is. Emotional, Ye Ming is an emotional person.
If you want to use money to treat Ye Ming, is Ye Ming short of money? There is no shortage of money at all. Therefore, for three to five million yuan, there is no way to ask Ye Ming to come out. But if it's about playing the emotional card, then in a situation like this, Ye Ming is indeed an easier person to talk to.
Especially at this time, Mango TV also showed great sincerity. You're not saying you don't have time, it's okay, our host is here and the stage has been transported. I'm just waiting for you to come over. This place is vacant.
However, this method is indeed useful. Although Ye Ming's time is relatively tight, under such a situation, Ouyang Balcony did a very good job and directly hit Ye Ming's weakness.
Therefore, in such a situation, Ye Ming thought about it, nodded and said: "There is no problem with this. If this is the case, I will have time tonight, but I can't guarantee anything else. Even tonight, in fact, It’s also a time when I’m jetlagged. Someone from the Olympic Bid Committee will definitely come to see me tomorrow. Then Brother Cheng Long and I will have to promote this, so we probably won’t have time.”
This period is definitely a key time to promote the capital's bid for the Olympics. Therefore, under such circumstances, it is impossible for Ye Ming, as the ambassador of the Olympic bid, to have any other free time.
Ou Balcony patted his chest and said, "No problem, there is absolutely no problem with this matter. For such an event, we have already set up the stage ourselves, and the host is ready. We are just waiting for you to arrive." What’s more, in a situation like this, if you decide on your lines and want to go on stage at any time, you can do it at any time, we have plenty of time over there.”
Since it was Ye Ming who agreed, under such a situation, Mr. Ouyang Yang would naturally give Ye Ming full respect.
There is simply nothing to say about this matter. Ye Ming is very familiar with lines. In fact, any movie, TV series, or variety show is all about lines. In movies and TV shows, it is generally best for your co-actors to deliver the lines.
Why is it that if an actor collaborates with another actor in a play, they may become good friends. Even getting married in the end is not impossible.
That's because everyone is familiar with each other, and it's easy to get familiar with each other's lines and so on. If you are not a rival actor, your own agent or even assistant is also a good choice.
In variety shows, generally speaking, for such a thing, the most correct thing is actually the director. Note that it is not the director, but the director. Variety shows often have a director with power second only to the director. For such a thing The person is at the assistant director level, he is responsible for the lines, as well as the actors. Whether it's a host, an editor writes the lines, and a specific choreographer or director edits the lines.
The director wants to find the explosive points in the lines. If there are few explosive points, then this program will be poor, and more explosive points must be added. As a person in the entertainment industry, Ye Ming is very familiar with such a thing. When we arrived at the show, He Jiong came over with his notebook. There was a big difference between the young and handsome guy and the stable and mature Mr. He who looked like a big shot in the future.
He Jiong said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, we said we are eagerly waiting for your arrival. Now let's review the lines."
This line is generally not performed by the host, because the host has his own job, and they are responsible for handling problems that may occur in the entire program after the show.
But if there are big names coming, then if the host wants to take action personally at this time, it is not impossible. For example, it's the same this time.
Ye Ming is here, and He Jiong himself comes over to review the lines, which is a very special example. Therefore, in such a situation, it also expresses Mango TV's respect for Ye Ming.
He Jiong handed over a notebook and said: "Mr. Ye, this is the draft for this time. Of course, it is a rough draft. If there are any problems that you think are inappropriate, then we can delete them."
This is the right of a big shot, and it is the kind of super big shot. Only big shots at the level of emperors and superstars are qualified to get this right. In the entire entertainment industry, there are only a handful of kings and queens who have such power.
But as long as you have it, it means that the artist is qualified to make all the changes in the entertainment industry.
Ye Ming happens to be such a person. He only started to enjoy such rights last year.
Starting from last year, if any variety show wants to invite Ye Ming to the stage, the first thing to do is to ask Ye Ming if he has any taboos. For example, if there are topics that he does not want to talk about, the host will not Able to ask questions.
Ye Ming took a look. After all, he had been working with Mango Channel for a long time, so he knew himself very well. The questions he asked were quite sharp, but they did not exceed his bottom line.
Therefore, in such a situation, Ye Ming looked at it and said, "There are no other issues, but Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I think we are all on our own, and Director Ang Lee and I are relatively familiar with each other." Yes, in comparison, it is somewhat embarrassing.
I can tell you that the selling price of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon will not exceed 15 million US dollars. It is a form of buying out the copyright. The overseas copyright belongs to Hollywood. I can't say anything else.
Ziyi's salary would not be as low as outsiders had guessed, nor would it be as high as advertised, but it was indeed one of the best salaries for mainland actresses at the time.
Therefore, you just need to know the answers to these two questions yourself, and don’t ask them in front of the TV. "
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is the pride of the Chinese people. Ye Ming also liked this movie very much and suffered a lot during the filming. Therefore, seeing the comparison with Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Ye Ming directly banned it. .
Some things can be asked casually, but some things cannot be asked casually.
On such a question, Ye Ming directly revealed some issues about Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and also expressed the gap between himself and the millionaire in the slums in one matter.
This gap means that the two movies are not comparable, and Ye Ming is not willing to use this issue to create hype. I just want to promote my own movie and there is no need to offend others because of this.
He Jiong may have a different perspective on the problem. He believes that these problems can improve the ratings at this time. In fact, these two problems can indeed improve the resolution. However, if Ye Ming is not willing to do this, there is no way. , after all, Ye Ming is a big shot and the center of this show.
Therefore, if Ye Ming doesn't want to ask questions, he can just answer them directly. He Jiong directly crossed out these two questions, saying that he would not ask them on the show.
Ye Ming did not continue reading at all, but nodded and said: "I am very happy to cooperate with Mango Channel. There is no need to read the rest. Basically, there is no problem. Even my girlfriend Chen Xi, I have this problem." I’ve never shied away from it, let alone other people’s business;”
Ye Ming has a girlfriend named Chen Xi. Many people know this. Chen Xi of the Chen family is not afraid of asking questions about this personal issue, let alone other issues that he has nothing to say. (To be continued)
