Legendary Hollywood Director

A few days later, in Firefly, Editing Room No. 1, the first cut of Wen Ziren's new film Lost was completed.

The filming of this film, as always, saves money, and the cycle is very fast. For Lao Wen, he is good at spending small money to do big things. Ten thousand.

Horror movies are different from many types of movies. The most important thing is the most basic movement of the mirror, the adjustment of light and shadow, and no requirements for the venue. Many times, they rent a country loft to start work. This is the case with Hidden. The location is all in the countryside of Ohio, and the most expensive and troublesome filming location involved is only a private clinic. The whole film took only 2.5 months from the stage of preparation to the end, costing 9.5 million yuan. The reason why there are so many dollars is that Lehmann included his own director's salary when the project was established. He didn't want to count it, and a 2-part account of the box office was enough.

After finishing the process, Wen Ziren took a week to recuperate before starting to cut the material.

The atmosphere is just right, and after a little polishing, the screening version can be confirmed. After finishing it, Lehman praised with satisfaction.

As a director, he believes that he does not have the imagination of Lao Wen in the field of horror. The red-faced devils, the black-clothed old ladies, the ghosts from all walks of life, and Mary-Shaw who appeared for linkage, etc., have been created. They are all ruthless characters who can make people's heart clench for a moment just by staring at you. Only in terms of creating a horror image, this film is not inferior to any horror movie of the same type.

Yes, in terms of excessive rhythm, we have to find a way to refine it and control the duration. Wen Ziren nodded in approval.

This kind of linkage should be very effective, and the concept of the spiritual world has been defined. On the side, Liam made a pertinent comment from the perspective of the market.

From Dead Silence, Death to Hidden, after the foreshadowing of the first two films and the inspiration of Lyman, to the third film, we finally see the prototype of the Wen-style ghost universe.

Here, it is the rule that only the soul can seduce the undead;

It is more difficult for the spiritual world and the human world to communicate with each other, but there are also special ones;

In addition to the human body, the undead can also be used as an attached vehicle such as a doll, that is, Billy in Dead Silence;

Exorcism is to drive away the dead, not to kill...

The gradual emergence of these rules and settings is precisely the filling of details under a large framework, which enhances the audience's familiarity with this type of film.

We have burned a lot of brain cells for this, but just like this idea, the network narrative does not affect the development of a single story, and if necessary, it can increase the depth and interest of the story through linkage. Ray Warner is a little bit. He is proud of himself, being able to come up with such a script also gives him a sense of accomplishment, and getting the approval of other professionals makes him a little excited.

The connection node that the exorcist used Mary-Shaw to help the male protagonist enter the undead world is very clever.

Dead Silence seems to have a score of 7.7 in the IMDB horror category. Since its release, more than 60,000 people have voted. These audiences who have watched the movie or accumulated through DVD and TV viewing will be the audience target we can win through publicity. .

The 9.5 million filming funds will not exceed 15 million even with the initial publicity expenses. Wow, maybe we have to run a small and broad market classic.

The publishers, who also came over to check the progress expectations, had a lively discussion.

When is the schedule? Lyman looked away from the screen and looked at Liam.

It's late October, it's mid-year, and it's just the Halloween time. Liam added: By the way, BOSS, Thor 2 has begun to be drawn, and I've already had someone put the bill on you. on the desk.

Um.

Back in the office, Lehmann looked at the recorded income of this financial resource with a little pleasure.

This year, the group has continued to move, and all parts are actively expanding. The expenditure is huge, and he feels a little short of money.

Only to say that in the first half of the year, the large-scale warehouses, flagship stores, and freight forwarding channels under the Marvel sales system, plus the expansion of the film library, the construction of Amber Video, the re-upgrade of the traditional distribution site model and the continuous expansion of the event platform, the first phase of the project. After that, it spent 520 million yuan, and the total expenditure in the next two years will even be around 1.6 billion yuan, plus the expansion of staff compensation and operating costs brought about by business expansion, from the basic expenditure of 437 million yuan in 2009 to 624 million in 10 years, This year at least in this area will rise to about 800 million.

Last year, for Mann Media, the film and television sector, as the largest main business, had a total revenue of US$11.423 billion, a year-on-year increase of 47.8% (mainly from the top-ranked Avatar, Marvel film and television dramas and copyright operation income), with a net profit of 3.749 billion, including the previous capital precipitation, the book is about 4.226 billion...

Back to Thor 2.

North America 323 million, accounting for 47%, international 362 million, accounting for 53%, the global box office is roughly around 685 million, although the screening cycle in some regions will be longer, but the overall increase very weak.

In terms of accounting, it is still the same ladder-type accounting. As such a strong brand film, in the first week of the film's screening, the photo film side will take the big first, that is, 80% of the box office, and so on, gradually reduce the proportion, and some marginal In cities and towns, at the request of the Cinema Alliance, the producers subsidize and promote them, giving them an internal discount rate to reduce the marketing costs of the academies. After all, the United States is a country on wheels, and many places have incomplete infrastructure, making it difficult to watch movies. I can only watch the second round, it is too much not to give discounts.

In this way, North America, as the most cost-effective ticket warehouse for Hollywood studios, as a whole, the theater chain will take 132.4 million, and the producer will take 190.6 million; overseas, the theater will take 197.3 million, and the producer will take it. 164.7 million, after deducting channel fees, taxes, etc., there will be about 117.4 million left, minus costs, publicity expenses, and the commission and remuneration of Fox, director behind the scenes, trade unions, etc., only less than can enter the Marvel account 44.55 million.

Derivatives and sales share are basically the same model. The profit created in North America does not need to go through a few more steps, the operating cost is lower, and it is easier to make money. After deducting all aspects of the share, Marvel's Thor character image plus part of the establishment of warehousing , to enhance their own sales performance and other factors, it is about more than 52 million, minus the miscellaneous handling fees, there are still more than 48 million that can enter the account.

For the producer, the most valuable and stable income is the operation of copyright. If the 600 million-level market hits are placed offline, the profit will naturally be considerable. , earning 116 million yuan, even if it can’t be sold in the future, it can bring reliable funds in the film library. In addition to the overseas part, although the marketing cost is high, the agency commission is also high, and the audit is complicated, but Liam The income given is at least about 40 million, and the copyright is 156 million.

In addition to the large amount of income from these businesses, some scattered small money, such as licensing fees and advertising fees, roughly speaking, Thor 2 can bring 248 million to the company - the copyright operation after three years is not counted In addition, the appreciation of brand image is an intangible asset.

Putting down the summary report, while Lehmann continued to focus on the operation of other projects here, the Netflix film purchaser, who is the head of the streaming media field, was routinely purchasing works in theaters. Industry has hit a wall here.

He was stunned, but immediately reported the news or the news that Mann Media had no longer concealed it to the headquarters. To sum it up, there was one sentence: Your Majesty, Firefly has also started to engage in streaming media, and their film sources are no longer available to us.
