Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire - Chapter 639

…

September 17, 1988.

The 24th Seoul Summer Olympic Games will be held as scheduled.

Meanwhile, “My Sassy Girl” is almost entirely out of print in Asia outside of Japan, which has only just begun to hit theaters.

“My Sassy Girl” earned HK$53.87 million in Hong Kong, second only to “Spider-Man”‘s HK$55.43 million and “Captain America”‘s HK$5,400 With a box office of 1.22 million Hong Kong dollars, it ranks third in the total box office of Hong Kong.

“My Sassy Girlfriend” has also achieved astonishing box office as Hong Kong in the Mainland and Nanyang countries.

but–

The craziest movie viewing area for “My Sassy Girl” is South Korea – in South Korea, “My Sassy Girl” actually won 1.03 million movie viewers, and the original highest viewing audience was just over one million. The box office performance increased tenfold at once, and a small South Korea even contributed nearly 20 million US dollars to the box office of “My Sassy Girl”.

“My Sassy Girl” is so crazy in South Korea, Xu Cundu did not expect it! Later, DreamWorks organized market researchers to study and analyze the following conclusions:

First of all, “My Sassy Girl” itself is of excellent quality and is a very rare good movie.

Secondly, and most importantly, because the Imperial Cinema Line has established a branch with 21 multiplex cinemas in South Korea in cooperation with King Map Land, so that “My Sassy Girl” can be screened on a large scale across the board. Like the movies that were released in Korea in the past, they were only released in one or two at most a dozen old theaters.

(PS: In the past, Hong Kong films that came to South Korea were generally shown in no more than three cinemas in Seoul.)

Again, Koreans are really crazy – in fact, “My Sassy Girl” was already in decline after more than 7 million viewers, but some Koreans with various reasons spontaneously Flocking to the cinema to watch it for the second time, the third time…the Nth time, the number of viewers of “My Sassy Girl” has reached more than 10 million. If it weren’t for the major Korean media, it would have The results of “My Sassy Girl”, which has exceeded 10 million viewers, have been announced. Maybe “My Sassy Girl” can achieve even more crazy results.

Are Koreans the craziest?

The answer is – no.

In terms of word of mouth, “Love Letter” is actually not inferior to “My Sassy Girl” at all, and even slightly better than “My Sassy Girl”.

In terms of box office, “Love Letter” was completely defeated by “My Sassy Girl” in regions other than Japan.

In fact, this is also normal – after all, “My Sassy Girl”, which is full of jokes, is more commercial, and “Love Letter” with a touch of sadness is more literary.

But–

Although “My Sassy Girl” won the box office in all regions except Japan, it still lost the total box office to “Love Letter”.

There is only one reason for this completely unreasonable result – the Japanese are more crazy than the Koreans, um… It should be added that the Japanese are more powerful than the Koreans!

With the Japanese rushing to the theaters to watch “Love Letter” over and over again, “Love Letter” actually earned 12.7 billion yen (equivalent to about 100 million US dollars) in Japan, making people all over the world feel The astonishing box office results are second only to the box office results of 16.35 billion yen achieved by “ET” in Japan, and have become the box office runner-up in the history of Japanese films so far.

In addition, “Love Letter” was not as dazzling as “My Sassy Girl” in other parts of Asia, but it was also a huge box-office movie.

Therefore, in terms of the total box office, “Love Letter” effortlessly overwhelmed “My Sassy Girl”!

“Love Letter” and “My Sassy Girl”, two low-cost films with a production cost of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, made DreamWorks at least 100 million dollars, which made the world see the world’s number one director Xu Xu once again At the same time of saving strength, it also makes people who are interested in paying attention to the two major movie markets of Japan and South Korea!

Xu Cun didn’t pay too much attention to the amazing achievements of “Love Letter” and “My Sassy Girlfriend” – now, the profit of 200 million US dollars can no longer attract Xu Cun’s attention.

Recently, only two can attract Xu Cun’s attention – Mitsubishi Oil and Nikkei Co., Ltd.

After the unremitting efforts of Iwasaki Masakazu, Xu Cun got his wish and reached an agreement with Mitsubishi Oil that ‘after the ‘Canada-Pacific’ oil and gas pipeline is fully completed, Mitsubishi Oil will only use this oil and natural gas highway to import Canadian oil’. And Xu Cun also got a 49% stake in Mitsubishi Oil as he wished.

The result seems simple, but in fact the process is extremely tortuous-Iwasaki Masakazu paid a lot of money to make Xu Cun satisfied, no, it should be said that Iwasaki Masakazu paid a lot of money to let Xu Cun play with him in the next stock market crash. . Of course, Xu Cun didn’t care how much Iwasaki Masakazu paid, he just wanted the result anyway.

On the other hand, after Xu Cun’s heavy investment fell, the Sanada family, the largest shareholder of Nikkei, resolutely abandoned MGM, and sold all the shares of Nikkei held by their family to Huangtu Land.

After obtaining the shares of Nikkei, He Chaoqiong immediately convened a shareholders’ meeting of Nikkei, and then proposed the division of Nikkei at the shareholders’ meeting.

After quarreling and arguing for more than a month, Huangtu Land dropped 2.5 billion yen and all the shares of Nikkei, and then left Nikkei with all the theaters and cinemas of Nikkei.

After that ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Huangtu Land carried out a comprehensive reform of the Nikkei cinema chain, demolished and rebuilt all the original small theaters and small cinemas, and built the most advanced multiplex cinema in the world.

Later, Huangtu Land leased all these multiplex cinemas to the Emperor Cinemas in the United States, forming the Imperial Cinemas (Japanese branch cinema).

In other words, Xu Cun’s purpose of this trip to Japan has been achieved.

Coinciding with the opening of the Seoul Olympic Games, Xu Cun took all the girls (including the girls who had toured in the Mainland for several months and Michelle Wan who had traveled around the world) to Seoul to watch the Olympic Games, and by the way, participated in the world-class competition for the first time. Cheering on Ma Yanli – Actually, Xu Cun mainly went to cheer on He Meitian, who was also participating in a world-class competition for the first time.

By the way, neither Ma Yanli nor He Meitian originally had the qualifications to participate in this Olympic Games.

But who made Xu Cun stand behind Ma Yanli and He Meitian? Even if Xu Cun didn’t say a word, Wu Shaozu and others also approved Ma Yanli and He Meitian to participate in the Olympic Games.
