Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

Even Xiao Yunhai couldn't believe it, let alone other people, that a cartoon had won such a high box office after only being screened for four times.

The most important thing is that the word-of-mouth of "Kung Fu Panda" is so good that the scores of movie websites in various countries are not lower than [-] points, and it is suitable for all ages.Even those fans who have never been interested in animated movies can't help being fascinated by it while watching it with their children.

On October 7.36, "Kung Fu Panda" made everyone's astonishing $[-] million, breaking the daily box office record for an animated film.

Disney's "Robot Wars" was directly underwhelmed, earning only 2.46 million U.S. dollars, and "Spider-Man 2" was also hit hard. The box office dropped to 2.56 million U.S. dollars, but the total box office has reached several billion.

As for "Future Soldier", it didn't even reach [-] million U.S. dollars, and Paramount and Disney's plan to jointly attack "Kung Fu Panda" directly became a joke.

Kestel looked at the dazzling 7.36 million US dollars on the report form, with a lonely face, shook his head and sighed: "I can't stop it."

As Kestel, who has created countless classic animations, he knows very well that after "Transformers", Marvel once again created a series of cartoons "Kung Fu Panda" that are popular all over the world, and there will definitely be "Kung Fu Panda 2", "Kung Fu Panda" and "Kung Fu Panda". "Kung Fu Panda 3", together with related peripherals, is estimated to be no worse than "Transformers", or even worse.

"I lost, I lost again. Could it be that Kung Fu Xiao is really my nemesis?" Hanks looked decadent.

Losing three times in a row, "Kung Fu Panda" was in a mess. Two days later, "Spaceship" wanted to do it, probably there is no way.

What worries him the most is the battle between "Resident Evil" and "2012" next month, which involves a gamble of 200 billion US dollars. Once he loses, the consequences will be disastrous.

Thinking of this, Hanks' complexion was ferocious, his eyes flickered coldly, and he said, "Since you can't fight on the bright side, don't blame me for using other means."

Hanks took out his mobile phone and dialed a foreign number.

"Ito, I need your help......."

"Kung Fu Panda" swept the world in one day. Marvel struck while the iron was hot, and launched a comprehensive publicity regardless of the cost. The promotional expenses alone cost [-] million US dollars, which can be said to have cost a fortune.

And the effect is very obvious. From its premiere on October 38.7 to October [-], in just ten days, "Kung Fu Panda" earned [-] billion US dollars and entered the top [-] box office of the world's movies.In its current state, it is impossible to break into the top ten, but there is still hope for the top twenty.

The box office of "Spider-Man 2" has been weak. It has only received tens of millions of dollars for several days in a row. It is estimated that it will be released in a short time. The box office is very good. It has received 39.58 billion US dollars, and there is no problem breaking 40 billion. .

Plancico was very satisfied with this result, but when he learned from Raul that "Kung Fu Panda" would definitely surpass him, Plancico was dumbfounded.

"No way. The "Spiderman" I worked so hard to make is not as good as an animated panda. God, this is too shocking."

Raul smiled and said: "Director Plancico, you have to work hard. Mr. Xiao judged that the 3D superhero series of the other four directors will break through 100 billion US dollars. If you can't go head-on, you will be left behind." .”

Plancico nodded, and said solemnly: "When the post-production of "Spider-Man 2" was completed, I had already started preparing for the second film. This time I will also use 3D technology."

Lauer asked, "What movie?"

Prancico said: "Superhero Wolverine. But before that, I'm going to a training session with Visionary Visual Effects."

The next day, Plancico flew to Yanjing. After watching Xiao Yunhai's "2012" at the Dream Special Effects Company, Plancico became more confident in 3D movies.

Chapter 1090 Interview

On October 2, "Battle of the Red Cliff [-]" starring Xiao Yunhai was released globally.

Because of the super high word-of-mouth and box office of the first film, "Battle of the Red Cliff 2" won a good score of 2.48 million US dollars on the night of its premiere, and the word-of-mouth was even more overwhelming.

At this time, the major film companies and the media have become numb. Looking at the situation of "Battle of the Red Cliff 2", it will definitely be no problem to break 40 billion.

Three consecutive movies broke through 40 billion in one month, which almost broke the record of the film company.

Since Xiao Yunhai owns a screen worth 7000 yuan, plus the 30.00% shares of New China Cinemas, with just these three movies, the profits reached a terrifying 78.4 billion US dollars.

You know, this has not yet calculated network income and peripheral income.

Not to mention anything else, just for the toy sets of "Kung Fu Panda", Marvel Toys Factory has sold more than 200 million sets, making a profit of more than [-] million.

On October 25th, Xiao Yunhai's manor villa welcomed several special guests. They were the reporter Kate Dailins of the American "Time" and his team.

The reason why he chose to be in Los Angeles is because Xiao Yunhai has been traveling all over the world in the past ten days, taking Liang Hui, Yu Yuexian and others to promote "2012".

When he received the call, Xiao Yunhai was holding a publicity conference in New York, and the next stop was the BBC TV station in Los Angeles.Therefore, Xiao Yunhai chose the manor villa.

Before the interview, Xiao Yunhai smiled and said to Kat Dennings: "Miss Dailins, during the interview later, can you mention my "2012"? You know, there are still six days left. The film is about to meet the fans."

Kat Dennings smiled: "Of course. That's the point of my interview."

Soon, the preparations were completed, and the interview officially started.

After a few opening remarks, Kat Dennings said: "The guest of our exclusive interview with Time Magazine today is Yunhai Xiao. In October, the movies he produced can be said to be popular all over the world. Marvel's cartoons "Kung Fu Panda" earned 42.58 billion U.S. dollars, and the superhero "Spider-Man 2" made 40.81 billion U.S. dollars. Now "Chibi War 2", which is currently being screened, has a box office of 28.38 billion U.S. dollars, which is likely to break through 50 million dollars. Billion mark. Three consecutive movies made Xiao and Marvel popular all over the world. Mr. Xiao, let’s say hello to the audience friends of our monthly magazine.”

Xiao Yunhai waved his hand towards the camera, and said, "Hello everyone, I am director Xiao Yunhai."

Kat Dennings asked: "Mr. Shaw, did you think that the box office results of the three films this month would be so good?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "I have always been very confident in my films. "Kung Fu Panda" was carefully produced by more than 100 staff members in eight months. Needless to say, "Battle of Chibi 2" is the first The quality of the whole part is there. "Spider-Man 2" has put a lot of effort into the visual effects. In order to be able to finish it on November 40st, Magic Special Effects can be said to have exhausted. After paying so much, I'm not surprised that three films have grossed over $[-] billion at the box office."

Kat Dennings said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao seems very confident. Can you tell me how much income your three movies can bring you?"

Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said: "I really don't know very well. You know, it's too troublesome to calculate these things. I have my own economic team now, and they are responsible for all these matters. It can be around 70 billion U.S. dollars."

"It's amazing. The three films earned more than 70 billion yuan in profits, which is comparable to the annual income of a large film company. Since the film industry is so profitable, why did you sell the North American film company before?"

"This is the proposal of my economic advisor, and of course I agree with it. The main reason is that the competition in theaters is too fierce. Take North America as an example. In the past, only the theaters of the eight major film companies could cover the entire North America. Now, except In addition to them, there are two more theaters, Yanhuang and Paramount, and the screen has been improved by more than three times. Therefore, I sold the theater and invested in other industries that can bring me more benefits. "

"Mr. Xiao, after careful investigation by our "Time Magazine", the various industries you invest in do have great potential for development, and compared with cinemas, the competition is much smaller. You know that your current assets are on the list of the world's richest people Where is it ranked?"

"What number? Do you mean I'm in the top ten?"

"That's right. After our detailed investigation, you rank eighth on the rich list with a wealth of 920 billion US dollars. The youngest of the other nine people are all over 40 years old. It can be said that you have created a miracle. Hear How do you feel about this news?"

"To be honest, I really don't have much interest in your rich list. Even if I become the richest man in the world, I won't feel so proud. For me, I am an artist first, and then I am the richest man in the world. A businessman. It is mainly due to the employees of the company that I can achieve such achievements in business, and I sometimes feel a little ashamed.”

"So, the salaries you give to the employees of your companies are generally several times higher than those of outsiders."

Xiao Yunhai said: "I don't know how much higher. I only know one thing, that is, if the company makes profits, the employees should also benefit. When the company achieves great development, the employees should also get rich returns. Only in this way can we give They have a sense of responsibility as the masters, and employees will work hard for the company. Last time, the magic company spent 20 million US dollars on the half-year award alone, and each person can get at least [-]."

"Don't you feel distressed?"

"Why should I be distressed? They have earned so much money for me, and it is normal for me to reward some of them. I think these salaries are what they deserve. Magic can still run without me It’s great, but without them, it’s really doomed.”

"No wonder everyone is saying that you are the most generous boss in Hollywood. What have you been up to lately?"

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "With my creative team, I will promote "2012" all over the world."

Kat Dennings asked: "I heard that this is the first 3D movie, which can give movie fans an immersive feeling. Do you really think that the future of movies will be 3D?"

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said: "Of course. Take my "2012" as an example. When volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, mudslides, floods, tsunamis and other catastrophes happened in front of you, you How would it feel?"

"I could be very terrified and shocked."

"So my movie only got an R rating because it was too real. If you are a fan with a bad heart, I am afraid that something bad will happen. So I remind everyone again that any movie fan with heart disease or high blood pressure is the best. It is best not to watch "2012" to avoid health problems."
