Hollywood: Great Directors Starting with Saw
Chapter 189
In Hollywood, even if a big director messes up a big production, the consequences are equally serious.
Light needs to prove themselves through small productions again.
Seriously, it is possible to fall directly into the TV drama market or even have no drama to film.
After seeing the enthusiastic feedback from the audience, the president of Fox left with peace of mind.
On the other hand, other film companies that paid attention to the situation on the first day of the Matrix were not very happy.
Steve Kevin, to this day, is simply a god-like existence among directors.
Even Spielberg has had moments when movies don't have a good box office.
But Steve Kevin, never failed.
Just this first-day feedback, if nothing else, The Matrix will create a legend again.
And this also means that Steve Kevin has to occupy this small number of prime time every year, at least for a month.
For other big studios, this is undoubtedly a huge loss.
Unfortunately, in the face of a hard-power player like Steve Kevin, others really have nothing to do.
.........
The day passed quickly.
The Matrix, directed by Kevin, reduced some information that was too obscure.
It becomes more understandable.
It may not be as thick as the classic Hollywood movie citizen Kane or as grand as the movie godfather, but it is more entertaining than them.
And this is exactly the result that Steve Kevin needs.
...
Inside Sunrise Films.
Kevin is handling the company's business.
As president, Dawson has significant authority over the day-to-day management of the company and personnel.
However, in some large fund transfers, Kevin's signature is required.
The current Sunrise Film Company, in addition to film investment, does not have much to spend money, and there is a lot of cash on the books.
It's not that Kevin doesn't want the funds to move, there really aren't many suitable projects.
Even if Kevin wants to establish an ecological chain, it must revolve around the film-related industry.
Netflix is the only giant video website in the future Internet era.
This one, Kevin definitely has to start.
And next year, it will be the time when Netflix is officially established.
To swallow Netflix, a lot of cash is essential, and at the same time, MGM's shares, he also wants.
If you think about it this way, in fact, Kevin's money is not enough.
As for what to finance with external money.
To be honest, it's not the time yet.
Once outside capital is poured in, Kevin's control over the company will gradually weaken.
You don't see, Brother Dong of a certain east, such a strong person.
In the end, it was not almost out by capital.
For Kevin, the two companies of Sunrise Studios and Marvel will never go public.
This is Kevin's basic plate, and as for the future Netflix, it is the best capital for him to absorb free capital.
As for why he is not afraid of Netflix overturning, Kevin also has his own ideas.
Netflix's foundation is actually a large number of movie DVD licenses.
As long as Kevin pinches this well, he is not afraid of Netflix going to the sky.
Kevin was unhurriedly dealing with some accumulated things, and Dawson was much more eager than him.
From time to time, I wandered around the office, and from time to time I went to the employee's office area to make a round.
"What's the rush, Dawson."
Disgusted with Dawson's dangling and affecting the mood, Kevin said directly.
Dawson smiled and touched the back of his head:
"I'm also anxious to know the Matrix's first-day box office."
Kevin shook his head, after all, there was still a huge gap between the president of Dawson and the presidents of those large companies.
This concentration alone is far from it.
Fortunately, Chenxi's development route is in his own hands, and Dawson is just a tool man.
"Don't worry, with our publicity, the Matrix's first-day box office will not be bad..."
"Kevin!"
Before Kevin finished speaking, Fox's president Davis came to this office.
Davis had a happy look on his face, holding a piece of data in his hand, it was the Matrix first-day box office.
With Fox's connections, it's not difficult to get this report quickly.
Fox was too eager to know the Matrix's first-day box office, so he didn't wait for the cinema to deliver it and went to get it early.
As for why you are in such a hurry, it is naturally because of the pressure of funds.
Titanic, under several additional investments, the total investment has reached more than 200 million US dollars in production costs.
According to the simplest three-fold box office principle, it can be seen back.
If the global box office of Titanic is less than $700 million, Fox and Paramount will lose a lot.
Even in terms of their size, this amount of investment is not a small amount.
And the loss of the Titanic, in the eyes of Paramount and Fox, is a high probability thing, after all, this is not a sci-fi blockbuster.
It's a romance movie.
Their thinking now is, how much cost can be recovered, how much cost.
The remaining losses have to be recovered from elsewhere.
Paramount's choice was to shoot a sequel to Mission Impossible, and under the huge financial pressure caused by the Titanic, Paramount paid a huge price in order to renew Tom Cruise's contract.
Fox, on the other hand, paid the price of Marvel's copyright and got the opportunity to cooperate with Steve Kevin.
Today, it's time for them to harvest.
Looking at Davis' expression, Kevin also smiled.
The cooperation with Fox is quite pleasant, and they have not interfered in making movies except for the money, which makes Kevin very happy.
Warner's side, from time to time, will give some opinions, although Kevin did not listen, but for them like to give opinions, Kevin is very disliked.
It can only be said that this is an old tradition of Warner Bros.
In the future, the DC Universe was destroyed by this group of executives who like to point fingers.
"The box office is out?"
Dawson leaned over and stared at the information on the table and asked.
Davis smiled and said
, "I didn't see it, didn't I come to you to share this joy together."
"Anyway, the theater told me that if it is a record, the box office on the first day must not be low."
Kevin just nodded calmly.
"Then open it and take a look."
Compared with the Wachowski brothers, he is a famous Hollywood director, and the protagonist used is also the famous Nicolas Cage.
Production costs, publicity efforts, schedules, and all aspects of the Wachowski brothers filmed the Matrix.
If this situation is not as good as the original, Kevin Zhenjue himself should find a murderous woman and crash into her mountain.
With this confidence, Kevin directly asked Davis to open this data to see how much the Matrix's first-day box office was.
Light needs to prove themselves through small productions again.
Seriously, it is possible to fall directly into the TV drama market or even have no drama to film.
After seeing the enthusiastic feedback from the audience, the president of Fox left with peace of mind.
