Save the Bachelor of Heaven
Chapter 1943: 1945【Giant Pit】
Chapter 1943 1945 [Giant Pit]
In September, Universal Pictures released the movie "Dawn of the Dead" directed by Robert Rodriguez and starring George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino.
It tells the story of two robbers fleeing all the way to Mexico. They wanted to relax in the bar, but they didn't expect that the whole bar was full of zombies. In order to save their lives, they had to start a **** fight with zombies.
This is a movie whose subject matter is difficult to distinguish. The first half is a police movie, and the second half becomes a fantasy horror movie, which is really strange.
But strange is strange, this is still an adrenaline-soaring movie after watching it. Therefore, the box office response was quite good. In the end, it successfully won the box office of more than 70 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was nearly 120 million U.S. dollars, which is a very good result.
You must know that the cost of this movie is only 19 million, which can only be regarded as a medium-cost production. But its box office performance is much stronger than many blockbusters.
…
It is worth mentioning that in the same month, Sylvester Stallone's masterpiece "Future Water World" was finally released.
This film took nearly two years to produce, with a total investment of more than 200 million US dollars. It is the largest investment in Hollywood so far, and it is much larger than the investment in "Jurassic Park".
In fact, the original investment involved was only 60 million U.S. dollars, but in order to save money, the production team chose to shoot in Hawaii, which agreed to tax relief.
As a result, they ignored the harsh climate in Hawaii, and the set built on the sea sank three times in the sea and was forced to rebuild. Therefore, the amount of work was huge, and the steel in Hawaii was out of stock at one point, and it was forced to ship steel at high prices from the mainland of the United States.
After the scenery is damaged, it will take time to rebuild it. Over time, labor costs will naturally increase. In addition, many crew members were not acclimatized, frequently had diarrhea, fever, and even contracted typhoid fever, which also increased the difficulty of filming.
Therefore, the filming was not completed until March this year. Also because the filming process was too difficult, Stallone also accumulated a lot of grievances, and broke the news to the media many times, saying that he has lived in **** this year. It is said that for this reason, there was a conflict with the director in the crew,
Also because of such negative news, "Future Water World" left a very bad impression on the audience before it was released.
After the film was released, Stallone refused to share the same stage with director Kevin Reynolds. This further consolidated the news of the discord between the two, which in turn led to substantial media coverage.
After all, for the media, the news that the crew members are brothers and sisters, and they are friendly together, is not as attractive as the news of fighting openly and secretly.
Under the overwhelming coverage of the media, the audience's impression of this movie is even worse.
In addition, in order to express the decadence of the future world in "Future Water World", the people in the film are not only dressed in rags, but also have dirty faces... This kind of wasteland style, the audience is not used to it, so they don't buy it .
In the end, "Future Water World" only won a box office of more than 50 million US dollars in North America, and the global box office did not exceed 100 million US dollars.
Compared with the investment of 200 million US dollars, it can be said that the loss went to grandma's house.
So Sony was furious and directly fired the two CEOs. And Sylvester Stallone, also because of the fiasco of this movie at the box office, finally turned salted fish over, but turned back again, which made him very depressed.
While some people are depressed, others are happy.
Kevin Costner was very glad that he had accepted "The Bridge of Madison County" instead of this "Water World". Otherwise, he is the one who is helpless now.
…
In October, Universal Pictures released the movie "Heat" directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
Don't look at the plot, just look at the lineup, this movie is not to be missed. In fact, this is also the case. A large number of movie fans have heard of the cooperation between the two and can't wait.
So as soon as the movie was released, I immediately went to the theater to watch it. And after watching it, they all felt that the trip was worthwhile and definitely worth the fare.
The storyline of "The Wire" is full of twists and turns, and the scenes are hot, especially the struggle of human nature, which is cruel and realistic, which greatly satisfies the appetite of the audience.
Therefore, "Heat" finally won a box office of 67 million U.S. dollars in North America, and the global box office is as high as 180 million U.S. dollars.
Such achievements are not in vain for the duo cooperation between Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
…
Entering November, "Vapor Secret Order" is officially completed.
Xiang Nan then took Cong Shan and Ning Jing back to the mainland, visited their parents, and then came to Xiangjiang again.
Xiang Nan went to see Shanshan first. She has now entered the School of Professional and Continuing Education of Hong Kong University to study financial management. To be honest, it is difficult.
After all, her foundation is too poor. Four years ago, she was still in elementary school, and she didn't even finish junior high school. Now let her go to university, the difficulty can be imagined.
However, Shanshan did not retreat in fear of difficulties, but faced them up. If you don't understand in class, you can find a tutor after class. If you don't understand once, listen twice, and if you don't understand twice, listen three times. Under such hard work, her grades have improved a lot.
In response to the "10,000-hour Law" by the writer Gladwell, through uninterrupted learning and hard work, even a mediocre person can become an expert in a certain field.
And there is poetry and calligraphy in the belly. With the enrichment of knowledge, Shanshan's temperament is also very different from before.
In the past, she was somewhat frivolous, not talking about manners, but just talking about clothing. A few years ago, she liked to dress colorfully, dressing herself like a moth.
Now she is mature and steady, dressed in light-colored clothes, elegant and generous, and everyone believes that she is a high-level white-collar worker in the company.
Xiang Nan is naturally very satisfied with her transformation. The better Shanshan became, the better it was for him.
"Okay, Shanshan keep working hard, I always knew you could do it." Xiang Nan laughed.
"Thank you, brother." Shanshan nodded, "I will definitely work hard, and don't forget to make that bet with me."
Xiang Nan smiled, "Don't worry, I won't forget it. After you get your diploma, I will definitely grant you one wish."
"Yes." Shanshan smiled and nodded.
…
Xiang Nan then went to see Wang Jing again.
"Mr. Ning, I have good news for you. I bought the film library of Debao and New Art City." Wang Jing smiled.
"Oh?! That's not bad, it's good news." Xiang Nan nodded upon hearing this.
Debao and New Art City were considered to be one of the two hottest companies in Hong Kong in the 1980s, producing countless classic movies.
For example, New Art City's "I Love Evening Fragrance", "Ghost Horse Zhi Duo Xing", "Happy Man", "Eight Star Annunciation" and so on, Debao's "Wealth is Overwhelming" series, "Three Worlds" series, "Little "Man's Weekly Diary" series and so on.
Taking over the film libraries of these two companies, the strength of Real Kung Fu Pictures has increased a bit.
