Legendary Hollywood Director - Chapter 1161
The original “Godzilla” plot was so protracted that it won nearly 1.8 billion yen in Japan and 524 million US dollars worldwide.
And now it’s 2011, Godzilla has more scenes, and in the fighting scenes, the top has also taken out the heavy texture that was carried over from the first part, and the taste is pure.
In addition, the background view of the script also follows the previous work, and further improves the concept of the wormhole world. It cannot be said that this work has no shortcomings, but the shortcomings are definitely not as many as those of the Legendary Films version, and the overall look and feel is even worse.
Therefore, when the audience’s word of mouth on the first day began to spread, the attendance rate of each theater line increased slightly compared with the first day.
The day after the release, in front of a certain theater.
The audience who heard the news crowded the ticket hall, and the schedule was endorsed by their achievements. In order to make money, other exhibitors are also helping Dongbao push.
The consequence of this is that even the second-year juniors are noisily watching the live-action movie “Godzilla”.
Just like at that time, a group of half-sized boys gathered around the ticket window and slapped a handful of banknotes on the counter.
“I want a 3d hall, I want a 3d hall.”
“Mita Wen, hall 3d.”
The people behind him reminded loudly, and the tall and thin teenager headed slightly raised his chin to look at the uncle of the conductor, “If you want tickets for “Godzilla”, choose Hall 3d.”
The conductor was very calm, “The 3d hall is only 10% off, you are one, two, three, four… Eight or eight people, the total is 15,600 yen, are you sure?”
The young man named Wentai struggled for a while, and seemed to feel quite aching to spend so much money, but he quickly pretended to be bold and said: “I said please watch the movie, do you want to choose the best theater? I need a ticket for Hall 3d.”
The boys of different ages behind him suddenly cheered.
…
“How’s the discussion with those anime clubs?”
On the other hand, Lehman didn’t pay much attention to the hot scene of “Godzilla” screening, but stayed at the Tokyo station every day, asking about the previously explained, Riman’s grant to the Amber Film Library, “Have you found someone to re-dub it? “
The representative of Blue Butterfly in Japan replied respectfully, “I have asked the Japanese staff in the agency to communicate. Jingani and other manufacturers are also more interested in the introduction of animation business, but in terms of price, it may not be very cheap. .We temporarily talked to those anime clubs about 70 animes, including “Fullmetal Alchemist”, “Eyes Burning Shana”, “Blue Exorcist”, “Swaying Lily”, “Daily”… probably The price is 26 million yen.”
“Is it a long-term contract in an exclusive area?”
“Yes. Most for 10 years, some for 20 years.”
“That’s good. If you can sign an exclusive long-term contract, the more expensive it is. You continue to buy more high-quality anime content, especially the hot blood, and then find someone to repackage it. Remember, there are more translations.”
“I see.”
“Okay, then go get busy.” Lyman nodded with satisfaction, feeling a little pity in his heart.
There is a place for Japanese comics in Europe and the United States, but the Japanese are not stupid. Some heads that can definitely go abroad, such as “Dragon Ball”, “One Piece” and so on, can’t be bought with money.
Of course, this transaction is not a loss, and the cost may be difficult to recover. It is not as wide as a popular movie, but as long as Amber Video can attract more users from the youth group, it will be convenient for the platform to cultivate Dependence of the younger generation on Mann Media.
Besides, he didn’t do nothing these days. He caught up with “Giant” producer Fang Bo Li Jiayin and Kodansha through Dongbao’s contacts.
Just like in the previous life, the “Giant” project is very short of money. Kodansha will not talk about it. It is just to gather popularity with the animation serialized publications for them. As for Polly Jiayin, a second-tier small factory with an annual profit of only 3 billion, yen.
It can be said that it is not mixed well.
It was too late to be held by the gold owner’s father, and they didn’t care about the exclusive licensing requirements. Anyway, they were not able to promote it in the United States and Europe.
As an extra mention, “Giant” is also a typical take-off in the later period. It was almost cut in half when it was broadcast in the third season. The reason is that the profit of the production committee has been very low for several consecutive years – the output quota of Giant Animation and its entire video-related industry It is not high. Although the commercialization is a small success, the investment is also large, and it will not make much profit for a long time. In addition, the speed of the return of funds in this industry is also the same. It is easy to make a decision to shelve the money.
However, for its accumulated influence, Lehmann doesn’t care about throwing this money into it. What he wants is exclusive authorization, and he can lay a foundation for entering the Japanese streaming media field in the future and gain more favor from the corresponding circles.
After all, the Japanese comic circle still respects the gold owners who don’t care about ki and invest money boldly.
“Oss, yesterday’s box office results came out. President Dongbao invited you to come over.” The employee next to him informed him.
“Ok.”
It took ten minutes.
When I went to the conference room of Dongbao Films, there were already some people sitting in it, and Perlman was also there.
“Grumbling, quack, quack.”
When President Dongbao saw him, he chatted enthusiastically.
“What did you say?” Lyman looked at the translator.
“Well, our president said that “Godzilla” has a good box office situation, and he is very grateful to Firefly for the development of Godzilla’s image.”
Soon, more specific news about the movie market came out.
“Godzilla” mobilized 420,000 people on the first day, with a box office revenue of 556 million yen, and is expected to mobilize 450,000 people on the next day, with an estimated two-day box office total of 1.141 billion yen.
According to Dongbao, this curve will definitely hit the top three positions in Japan’s annual box office.
Ask him again, what is the level of the top three in Japan?
The answer is only 10 billion, and the top three will definitely not get in.
That is to say, Toho’s assessment of “Godzilla” is that it can get 70 to 80 million US dollars in Japan.
In terms of the size of Japan, this is not bad. You must know that the final chapter of “Harry Potter” also took more than 100 million US dollars in Japan.
Compared with the two, Godzilla still has weight in the hearts of the Japanese people.
What’s more, there are still so many regions that have not been released, and there are many ways to make money. Thinking of this, the producers of the project all laughed.
“Come on, let’s pop champagne to celebrate.”
“cheers.”
When Lehman returned to Los Angeles, Perlman went to the mainland.
For the mainland market, there has always been a hunger for blockbuster visual effects, and “Godzilla” is difficult to pull across.
Perlman thought so too, so he went to contact the distributor over there to arrange more films, and gave a good example of the real-time feedback of the film’s release in Japan.
China Film is not blind, the two areas are so far apart that they can’t hear anything.
In this way, “Godzilla” is stable in the Asian region.
…
New Line Studios.
On the road where the autumn wind was bleak and the weather turned cooler, a Mercedes-Benz SUV drove far away and stopped within the white line.
A man came down, carrying a bag and helping to open the door.
“It’s just a small role, do you need so much preparation~www.mtlnovel.com~ and join the group ahead of time.”
Lily Koslin, the little flower who has been in the limelight recently, complained of dissatisfaction.
“Please, this is a scene filmed by Director Lehman himself. How many ways have I asked to let you in? You must not have this kind of emotion.” The agent comforted: “The scene is a little less, but I can appear on the scene and take part in it. The relationship is already very good. Not to mention that he is in the same frame with Nicolas Cage and Jake Gyllenhaal, both of whom are the top people in Hollywood.”
“Okay, okay, I know, don’t be long-winded.”
The two chatted, and when they entered the shooting base, the agent called and a crew member was dispatched.
“Come upstairs, the script meeting at 3 pm.”
Followed upstairs, except for a few behind-the-scenes personnel, not a single one in front of the stage.
“I said you don’t have to come so early.” Lily was upset again.
“The few of you who are playing against you are on the front line, do you dare to make them wait?”
After about an hour, people slowly gathered.
So far, the main cast of “Big Shot” is as follows:
Male No. 1, a middle-aged old policeman: Cage;
The rich man’s villain, Jake Gyllenhaal;
The group field manager, that is, the role of Liu Haizhen in the original play, is responsible for helping the son-in-law to wipe his ass, Bob Odenkirk (the role of Goodman who played the “Fashionable Lawyer”);
Police Captain, Woody Harrelson (played in “Happy Hotel” and “Three Billboards”, he is harmonious, upright, and powerful);
The villain’s girlfriend, Lily Cosling;
Wife of the old policeman, Betsy Brandt (played in “Testimony of the Dead”, also the sister of the old white wife in “Breaking Bad”, recommended by Woody Harrelson);
The leader of the party, with a cameo by Tommy Lee-Jones, and a friendly starring…
