The Best Entertainment Era

Chapter 1131: The Beginning

The plan to acquire 20th Century Fox has not officially surfaced, and it remains within the scope of a very small community of interests. Apart from quietly preparing for this work, Relativity Entertainment's normal business operations have not been affected in any way.

Especially in terms of movies, filming, production, publicity and distribution are proceeding according to plan.

In late January, Uwe Bauer's masterpiece was released again as Relativity Entertainment's opening film.

The premiere of The Witcher Washington was held in Richmond, the capital of Virginia. Legend has it that in this state, Washington achieved the feat of cutting down the cherry tree demon, thus embarking on the road to save America with other founding fathers .

This film is not only the adventure of Washington alone, but also leads like-minded Franklin and Jefferson in the film.

The phrase Man will never be a slave, Washington also shouted sonorously.

Last year's Vampire Hunter Lincoln aroused good market response, and it also did enough warm-up for Witcher Washington. Coupled with the attraction of Uwe Ball's Internet celebrity director, many viewers are willing to pay attention to this movie. pay for this video.

The Witcher Washington was released in North America in the first week. Although it lost to the US$32 million produced and distributed by Sony Columbia Pictures in the same period, it only ranked second in the box office list, but it was still in 3,750 theaters. Got $22.66 million.

That's close to three movies costing $8 million to produce.

Although the word-of-mouth of the film is still a mess, it does not prevent Uwe Ball from achieving another commercial success as a director.

Brother Bao's career as a director is far from over.

Perhaps after filming so many rotten and invincible video game adaptation movies, and being a licking dog for Blizzard and World of Warcraft for several years, but in the end, there was still nothing left after licking, Uwe Ball had some experience and found his own film road.

In addition to its own problems, Uwe Ball's filmmaking was so bad, the source of film funding is also a reason that cannot be ignored.

Germany's film tax rebate policy has caused too many people to work on films instead of making good films.

Just like super-standard horror movies such as Reaper and Saw, Uwe Ball also has a group of audiences that belong to him.

Reflected in the movie, The Witcher Washington took just ten days, and the North American box office exceeded 40 million US dollars.

Easy and big profits for relativity entertainment.

The last Vampire Hunter Lincoln earned 152.68 million US dollars worldwide, and only the box office share brought tens of millions of dollars of profit to Relativity Entertainment.

The film will then be screened on a large scale in the global market.

The first weekend in February belongs to football, which is the largest sport in the United States. The influence of the NFL is estimated to be comparable to the combination of the next three sports leagues.

The Super Bowl is basically held on the first weekend of February every year.

As the American Spring Festival Gala, its influence and ratings can only be described as amazing, and even the movies released on the Super Bowl weekend will be greatly affected.

Movies with a slightly larger investment in Hollywood will basically focus on the next weekend, which is also the weekend before Valentine's Day, and many movies are preparing to squeeze the Valentine's Day schedule in order to get a satisfactory income.

Among them, there are two most eye-catching films: one is the third film Eclipse of the Twilight Saga series under Relativity Entertainment, and the other is the sci-fi film released by Twentieth Century Fox, which is almost wholly-owned. The giant production Terminator 2018.

Both films are sequels to the hit series, the former of which set a series of miraculous records last year, which can be called the miracle of fan movies.

The latter cost as much as $200 million to produce, and Twentieth Century Fox invested $150 million in global promotion and distribution.

Twentieth Century Fox has high hopes for this super giant.

Likewise, Relativity Entertainment expects The Twilight Saga: Eclipse to match the revenue and profits of New Moon.

One year after New Moon was released, the film's one-year settlement report data was also calculated and sent to Ronan's office.

New Moon finally had a North American box office of 315.04 million US dollars, an overseas box office of more than 413.06 million US dollars, and a final global box office of 728.1 million US dollars.

At present, the global box office share has been fully accounted for, and Relativity Entertainment has earned a total of 276.5 million US dollars.

In home entertainment, led by DVD, New Moon grossed $185.69 million worldwide.

The film grossed $151.25 million worldwide in TV rights and on-demand.

Due to the separate calculation of peripheral products and copyrights, the total income of the film only counts these three projects, totaling 613.44 million US dollars.

In terms of cost, the production cost of New Moon was US$45 million, global publicity and distribution costs were US$84.5 million, and home entertainment and TV copyright costs totaled US$26.5 million. The crew involved Lindsay Bill and director Catherine Hardwick and The union of other main creators stipulated a total of 16.2 million U.S. dollars in the later stage, the investment interest of the Pacific Foundation was 15.7 million U.S. dollars, and the daily management expenses and other expenses of Relativity Entertainment were 32.1 million U.S. dollars.

According to Hollywood's usual calculation method, the total expenditure cost of this film is as high as 220 million US dollars, and the net profit is an exaggerated 393.44 million US dollars.

Of course, some of these calculation methods have Hollywood tricks, such as the daily management expenses of the film company and other expenses.

This is the income of the three major categories of movies in the past year. Counting other peripheral income, New Moon brought Relativity Entertainment a net profit of more than 450 million US dollars.

The film will continue to shine in the future, and within the last three years, it will bring in hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue every year.

According to the expectations of Relativity Entertainment, the profit of Eclipse in one year's release will not be lower than that of New Moon, even if there are behemoths like Terminator 2018 in the movies released at the same time.

Twentieth Century Fox encountered financial difficulties and was eager to recoup the funds. Terminator 2018 also deliberately chose the release time period between the New Year and the summer period, which is the most enthusiastic audience between the New Year and the summer period, during Valentine's Day in February.

Even Rupert Murdoch personally invited James Cameron from the South Pacific to attend the premiere of Terminator 2018 to promote the movie.

Compared with Twentieth Century Fox’s big investment, Embassy Pictures’ promotion of “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse” is still based on last year’s policy, and the promotion center mainly revolves around Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart The couple file unfolds.

The promotional plot of this one has been pushed by Embassy Pictures to the stage where Robert Pattinson proposes to Kristen Stewart.

The pair attended last weekend's Super Bowl together, and Kristen Stewart's diamond ring on her finger was extraordinarily dazzling, and even stole a lot of the limelight from the Super Bowl winner Pittsburgh Steelers, driven by Relativity Entertainment.

In the next two years, we can break up, make public proposals and even get engaged, and there are still many eye-catching articles to do.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have already signed an agreement under the impetus of the brokerage company and Embassy Pictures. Regardless of the true or false relationship between the two, before the end of the Twilight series Don't cheat or break up.

As for whether Robert Pattinson broke up or cheated on Kristen Stewart after the entire series of Twilight ended, it has nothing to do with Relativity Entertainment.

This pair of true and false couples played an extremely important role in the promotion of the Twilight Saga series. Whether it was in the hands of Lionsgate Films or now under the contract of Relativity Entertainment, it can be called The successful model of Hollywood couple marketing can be used as a classic case in the textbook of movie marketing.

Eclipse, as a film that is entirely aimed at female audiences, has successfully continued the success of New Moon. It set a record for the series on the first day of its release in North America, earning US$66.83 million, easily surpassing those of the same period. The super giant Terminator 2018 stood at the top of the North American box office chart on the day it was released!

Terminator 2018 finally collected the seventh Dragon Ball for Twentieth Century Fox!

This super masterpiece earned 11.4 million US dollars on the first day of its release, and the audience's response was extremely mediocre.

The series of negative effects brought about by the third part finally affected the fourth part. It seems that the film also proves that without the governor as the main character, the audience is not willing to pay for the film.

In fact, even if the governor returns, the audience will no longer pay for the film.

Is Judgment Day over? Will robots go back to the past in the future? The constant time travel may be tiresome.

The Terminator series started out as a great idea, and now it's gone horribly wrong.

In the next three days, although both Eclipse and Terminator 2018 showed a trend of continuous sharp drop in the box office, and even the latter's decline was smaller, the overall audience of Terminator 2018 was too low.

During the three-day opening weekend in North America, this major sci-fi production only received $26.62 million. Compared with the huge investment, it can only be described as extremely tragic.

Although Eclipse has attracted a lot of criticism, and its overall word-of-mouth has hit a new low in the series, it is still the favorite of young women. In three days, it earned 157.77 million US dollars. Realize large profits!

The filming of the next two films in this series has been completed and will continue to be released on Valentine's Day in the next two years.

Twentieth Century Fox originally planned to develop Terminator 5, but canceled the sequel plan on the first day of Terminator 2018 release.

The seven shining dragon balls were finally collected by 20th Century Fox, and the dragon was successfully summoned!

The disastrous failure of Terminator 2018 was first reflected in the stock market. The stock price of 20th Century Fox plummeted. On the first trading day after the opening box office in North America was released, the market value evaporated by more than one billion US dollars.

This is just the beginning of a series of bad events.
