The dark night sky enveloped the entire Los Angeles, and the road was very quiet, with only a few cars passing by at a fast speed.

At the end of the charity dinner, Ryan sat in a black stretched Bentley and slowly drove into the gate of Bel Air's mansion.

Since the security environment in Los Angeles is not very good recently, Ryan asked Daniel Green to increase the number of security personnel. In addition to the two guards at the gate, there are also security personnel patrolling inside.

Without exception, every security personnel has experienced the baptism of war and has a secret gun license.

In the future, the public security environment in the United States will become worse and worse, so we can only do security defense in advance.

The security personnel came out to verify their identity, slowly opened the iron gate, and the black extended Bentley drove in and parked in front of a building.

Ryan and his party got out of the car, walked into the living room, took off their coats and handed them to the maids, and sat down in a master bedroom on the second floor.

The maid put down several cups of coffee, pastries, and fruit, turned around and exited the room and closed the door.

Ryan looked at the time, it was only half past one, "You can go to rest first, it is estimated that the Sunday box office of "Blade Warrior" will be calculated in the early morning."

The three-day box office data of the first weekend of each film is of extraordinary significance, and it can even be said to be very critical.

The release time of a large number of films in theaters has gradually become shorter and shorter, and the proportion of the box office in the first weekend is also getting heavier and heavier.

The box office of many films in the first weekend can account for one-third of the total box office.

Cindy Crawford leaned on the bed, took off her high heels casually, and put a pair of slender and straight thighs on the other side, "The box office of "Blade Warrior" in the first weekend will not be less than 20 million US dollars."

"You don't have to worry about anything."

"Blade Warrior" has already earned a box office of 14.17 million US dollars in North America. As long as the box office reaches more than 6 million US dollars on Sunday, the box office of the film can exceed 20 million US dollars in the first three days of the weekend.

For an R-rated movie, a three-day opening weekend of $20 million is definitely a feat worth celebrating.

Ryan's eyes stayed on Cindy Crawford's legs, and he calmly admired, "I'm not worried."

"For me, "Blade Runner" has been considered a success. Even if the box office cannot reach 20 million US dollars in the first weekend, there is nothing to be disappointed about."

The production cost of the film is only 35 million US dollars. With the box office trend of "Blade Warrior", there is almost no possibility of losing money, at most it can bring much profit.

"I'm just used to it, knowing the box office data of the film's first weekend at the first time."

As he spoke, Ryan shifted his gaze to Charlize Theron who also took off her high heels and lay side by side on the bed.

He suddenly remembered something and asked, "Disney intends to invite you to star in a sci-fi movie!"

Charlize Theron nodded lightly, "To be precise, it is a project of Miramax Films and New Line Films, and it seems that there is also Michael Ovitz."

Project of Miramax Films and New Line Cinema!

Ryan thought for a while, as if he had never heard of it in his previous life, what project the two had collaborated on.

Except Lord of the Rings.

Charlize-Theron sat up, and said seriously: "The project budget investment is as high as 200 million US dollars, and it is adapted from a famous science fiction book "Mars Princess."

"When George Lucas was filming "Star Wars", he used to draw on the content of this science fiction book."

As for the grievances between Miramax Films, New Line Films and Orion Films, compared to a project with an investment of up to 200 million US dollars, it is only a trivial matter.

Otherwise, neither would invite Charlize Theron.

"Princess of Mars!"

Ryan suddenly remembered, "I've heard about this project."

"Since the 1970s, the "Princess of Mars" project has been mentioned several times. However, until now there has been no real preparation for the crew."

Every veteran Hollywood film company has a lot of scripts in its script library, and "Princess Mars" is just one of them.

Cindy Crawford was a little surprised, the investment budget was as high as 200 million US dollars, and she seemed to have heard of "Martian Princess", "a very familiar name."

"It's a classic science fiction work."

Charlize Theron said: "The author is Edgar Rice Burroughs. There are 11 original books in total. This time I am only going to adapt the first book."

Cindy Crawford dragged her chin with both hands, looked up at Charlize Theron, and asked, "Charlie, are you going to accept the invitation!"

A sci-fi film with a budget of 200 million US dollars is hard to refuse.

However, Charlize-Theron shook her head, "I'm not very optimistic about this project. "Star Wars" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and "Martian Princess" is difficult to shoot new ideas."

"Besides, until now, I haven't even read the script."

"It is said that the script is still being revised."

A project that hasn't even been finalized for the script is a little unreliable no matter how you look at it.

There are many projects in Hollywood that have died halfway. Unless the crew has finished preparations, no one can guarantee that the "Martian Princess" project can continue.

After all, the project has been stuck on schedule since the 1970s.

"Charlie, well said."

Ryan picked up the coffee and took a sip, "If it was thirty years ago, I would be very optimistic about this project, and it would even become another Star Wars series."

Recalling the "Princess Mars" project in his previous life, Ryan's tone changed, and he said lightly: "But the era of "Princess Mars" has passed."

"Since the first "Star Wars" was released, the era of "Princess Martian" has come to an end. It is impossible for Hollywood to have a film similar to the Star Wars series."

"Princess of Mars" has missed its best era, and no matter who directs it, this film will hardly succeed.

"The era of "Princess Mars" is over!"

Cindy Crawford was stunned for a moment, a little confused, "I don't quite understand, anyway, this is a famous science fiction work."

Without waiting for Ryan to speak, Charlize-Theron explained: ""Martian Princess" has been published for too long, so long that no readers remember its existence, and the investment of the entire film is as high as 200 million US dollars. For an adaptation that doesn't have a large readership, the stakes are very high."

It's not that "Princess Mars" is not well-known, but that it was published too early.

Those readers and fans back then have gradually disappeared, and few of the new generation have heard of the name "Princess Mars".

There are very few people who have read the original.

In addition, the "Star Wars" franchise is also a key factor.

George Lucas and the "Star Wars" series of movies have been deeply imprinted in the minds of every American, and it is difficult for them to accept the appearance of "Martian Princess".

If it was thirty years ago, or thirty years later, you can still try.

But not now.

Ryan couldn't help but regret that the times had ruined a film that was comparable to "Star Wars".

Now the main moviegoers in the North American film market are those born in the 1970s and 1980s, who almost grew up watching "Star Wars".

For them, the "Star Wars" series is a childhood memory, and there will never be a second similar film.

Cindy Crawford thought for a while, then asked again: "What about The Lord of the Rings?"

"The Lord of the Rings is different."

Ryan looked at Cindy Crawford and asked, "Aside from The Lord of the Rings, how many Western epics can you name?"

"It seems that there is only "Wheel of Time." Cindy Crawford thought for a long time, but only one "Wheel of Time" came to mind.

As for A Song of Ice and Fire!

It has only been published for less than three years, and the scope of its influence has not yet been fully demonstrated.

Cindy Crawford is definitely not stupid, and the next moment, she understood what Ryan meant.

"There are many famous science fiction works in the United States, but the entire Western epic is only "Lord of the Rings". The publication time of "Wheel of Time" is too short, and this work is not yet finished." Ryan said it directly.

Cindy Crawford couldn't help looking at Ryan, she was fascinated by her confident look, "That's why you spent a lot of money to shoot "The Lord of the Rings."

With an investment of up to 300 million US dollars, shooting three series of films at one time is enough to be recorded in the annals of Hollywood legends.

"My elf queen, when the time comes, you will see the birth of an unprecedented epic masterpiece."

Ryan's tone changed, and he began to tease Cindy Crawford, "The next few years of summer vacation will belong to the era of "Lord of the Rings", and countless movie fans will surrender under your throne."

"Really?" Cindy Crawford looked at Ryan charmingly, "Why don't you try to conquer the elf queen."

Next, the atmosphere in the room gradually became ambiguous.

In fact, with the release of "The Lord of the Rings", "Harry-Potter", "X-Men" and other series of films, Orion Pictures will face unprecedented pressure.

Otherwise, Ryan would not be in a hurry to let Jon Felthammer contact MGM.

Only by becoming a member of the Film Association and having the qualifications to be on an equal footing with several Hollywood giants can one avoid the disadvantages of film ratings.

Of course, just try to avoid ~ www.novelhall.com ~ can not be eliminated.

For example, "The Matrix 2: Reloaded" produced by Warner Bros. in the previous life turned out to be an R-rated film.

There must be competition among Hollywood giants.

The three of them lay on the bed and chatted for a while about the topic of "Lord of the Rings" and "Princess Mars".

During the period, Cindy Crawford played the elf queen herself.

It wasn't until the sky gradually brightened outside that Ryan received a call from Orion Films.

"Blade" earned $6.15 million at the box office on Sunday, including the $14.17 million it earned on Friday and Saturday.

In the first three days of the weekend, it earned a box office of 20.32 million US dollars.
