Chapter 271： Good spirit
In the six major Hollywood studios, "The Bourne" is an ordinary medium-scale production, but for Relativity Entertainment, this is the top super A project.
The resources for publicity and distribution are naturally closer to "The Bourne".
In the "Vanity Fair" interview with Jason Byrne as the cover character, a passage from Ronan as the producer was also published.
"Matt Damon and Jason Byrne are integrated. His wonderfulness, the kind of calmness, the kind of helplessness, the kind of perseverance, the kind of swearing to stop until he fails to reach his goal, are moving."
Ronan also praised the role of Byrne and the starring role of Matt Damon: "Byrne never waits passively, but takes the initiative to attack and firmly controls the chess game in his own hands; he uses one person to fight against a large group. And an unshakable system, even if the power is weak, but being able to play this system in the palm of the hand, people have to make a case for him. This is the charm of "The Bourne", this is Matt Damon Charm!"
It is impossible for the producer to blow himself up, and few people pay attention to it. They still have to blow the stars and movies before the curtain.
Undoubtedly, as soon as "The Bourne" was released, it stood out from a series of bizarre, equipment competition, and extreme spectacle spy films.
There is also a very important point. The previously huge publicity and screening scale of "Pearl Harbor" has suffered from all aspects of word-of-mouth, and the box office has fallen sharply. Now, the only thing that can really compete head-on with "The Bourne" in theaters is actually "The Tomb." "Li Ying" is a film.
After the beginning of the working day, the box office of "The Bourne" began to decline normally, but the trend was relatively stable. From Monday to Thursday, four working days won 19.93 million US dollars.
Then, the film ushered in its second weekend in North America.
This weekend, the film with the largest scale was "Strange Doctor Dolittle 2" released by Twentieth Century Fox.
This is a typical black comedy starring Eddie Murphy.
Films similar to "Strange Doctor Dolittle 2" have always been more marketable in North America, and black comedy can be regarded as a relatively large category of commercial films.
Strictly speaking, Jack-Chen’s "Peak Hour" should also be included in the ranks of black comedies.
After the film was released, it quickly seized the market, earning US$25.03 million in North American theaters for three days on weekends, and won the North American box office chart in one fell swoop.
"The Bourneman" only spent a weekend in the top spot of the North American box office and slipped to second place. However, Ronan was quite satisfied with the $23.56 million box office.
Ten days after its release, the North American box office of "The Bourne" has reached 93.34 million U.S. dollars.
The weekend box office of "Tomb Raider", ranked third, has fallen to $10 million.
The rate at which the popularity of "Pearl Harbor" decays is not proportional to the investment in the film. After only five weekends of release, the North American weekend box office plummeted to about $6 million.
Disney's ambitious war epic masterpiece, of course, is not a failure, but it is far from meeting expectations.
In the past two years, Ronan has conducted in-depth analysis and synthesis based on the top 20 movies in the North American and global box office charts, combined with the production cost and publicity and distribution investment of each film, to compare the actual box office revenue at home and abroad. Basically come to a conclusion.
For films with good box office and relatively high investment, the global box office must be at least three times the production cost to ensure that the film company may recover the cost through the box office.
Of course, this is just an average calculation, and there must be different cases.
Not surprisingly, the final box office number of "Pearl Harbor" is estimated to be a gap of more than $100 million from Disney's psychological expectations.
But this did not affect the cooperation between Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer. It is said that Disney is preparing to cooperate with Jerry Bruckheimer on a new film project.
Ronan is very curious, what will the two cooperate?
Although Jeff Kasenberg left Disney, the relevant information channels have been open, and he soon told Ronan that Bruckheimer Pictures was preparing to cooperate with Disney on a treasure hunt movie.
A treasure hunt movie? Ronan was a little confused, because strictly speaking, "Pirates of the Caribbean" is also a treasure hunt theme.
More accurate news, temporarily unable to inquire, Ronan is also cautious, maybe "Pirates of the Caribbean" should also be daily.
Although the copyrights of related stories and characters have been registered with the Copyright Bureau, and they have even been specially filed with the screenwriters’ union, Di Baobao and Bruckheimer Pictures will film according to the stories of their previous lives. 100% of them will infringe copyrights, but Hollywood’s specious stories It’s not uncommon for it to be filmed.
Of course, under normal circumstances, genuine film companies will not deliberately infringe copyright, not to mention reputation issues, the follow-up troubles alone are too numerous to count, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Ronan, however, believes that in the second half of this year, to be precise, he will officially put "Pirates of the Caribbean" on the agenda after September 11th.
For such a top-notch production, just preparing and shooting, it takes about one and a half years to reserve.
The only good news is that Ronan not only knows who the three protagonists are, because he was extremely impressed with this series, even the director is vaguely impressed.
In the office, Ronan wrote the director, the lead actor and the capital in three big characters in his notebook.
The director's words can be found by people. He is not an unknown person himself, and should be easy to find.
In terms of starring, the first movie is undoubtedly the structure of the Iron Triangle. Of course, Johnny Depp is not a captain.
The current Johnny Depp is still a weird actor, far from the first line of Hollywood, let alone the so-called four kings of Hollywood in the future, it is estimated that up to 10 million US dollars can be paid.
The other two actors do not need to invite stars. It seems that they were just a little famous little actors before shooting "Pirates of the Caribbean" for Miss A. They are not much better than Kate Beckinsale of "Pearl Harbor".
For the little blacksmith, choose the fairy prince? It seems that finding a strong man is more suitable for a blacksmith, right? The fairy prince is of course not bad. In the Hollywood aesthetic, even the beautiful figure of a man is quite predictable, not really like a lady...
These can be carefully considered after the establishment of the crew.
The most critical issue is funding.
Ronan has continuously participated in and produced multiple film projects. He knows that making movies in Hollywood is actually burning money. For a fantasy blockbuster like "Pirates of the Caribbean", if you want to shoot ideal effects, the cost of special effects alone may be Around $40 million, or even more.
There are basically no speculations in special effects, and the amount of money invested is displayed most directly on the screen.
According to Ronan's estimation, the production cost of this film could not be less than 120 million US dollars.
Although this money does not require a one-time investment and can be credited to the account one after another, only relying on internal financing can break the capital chain of Relativity Entertainment.
Once the company's liquidity is tight, it will definitely affect Ronan's subsequent series of plans.
It often takes more than two years for movies to go from investment to real gains.
External financing is still the best option.
I wonder if Koch Films in Germany and Mountain Foundation in India can raise such a huge amount of funds.
Ronan also thought of the foundation he was planning to establish, which should be able to play a role by then.
With the success of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series and the "Bourne Bourne" series, Relativity Entertainment will be able to gain a foothold in the commercial film market and will be able to launch more first-line productions at that time.
The premise is that there will be no inexplicable suppression.
Outside of the movie, it is still necessary to be appropriately low-key, anyway, there is still DreamWorks in front, acting as the best shield.
It is not difficult for Ronan to find that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. For many years to come, Relativity Entertainment will not find a more suitable development opportunity than now.
Now DreamWorks seems to be very powerful. It took the Oscar for the best picture for two consecutive years. It looks like it may become the seventh largest in Hollywood at any time, attracting the attention of the six major companies, but hiding behind DreamWorks. The company provides a rare development space.
In previous lives, Lionsgate and Summit Entertainment developed rapidly at the beginning of the century, which is not unrelated to this.
From the beginning to the present, DreamWorks has always assumed the attitude of Lao Tzu to take the lead every day. It is strange that the Big Six companies do not give priority to combating DreamWorks.
According to Ronan's memory, the good days of DreamWorks can last two more years, and these two years can fully play the role of mt.
So Steven Spielberg is actually a good man, and even a kind-hearted old Jewish man.
Sacrifice me, a lot of happiness in the circle...
The old man insisted on supporting DreamWorks until it was completely disintegrated. It is estimated that he also has a heart for mt.
"My name is mt, a body with a copper wall and iron wall, I parry, I dodge, I use my body to guard you..."
Infected by this kind of good spirit, Ronan also decided to be a good person for the time being not to encourage Jeff Katzenberg’s DreamWorks animation studio to break up with Spielberg.
A dream factory that looks powerful enough from the outside meets the development needs of relativistic entertainment.
Nowadays, Lionsgate is in obscurity and Pinnacle Entertainment has developed awkwardly. Once DreamWorks falls, Relativity Entertainment will soon become a very eye-catching presence among Hollywood second- and third-tier film companies.
At that time, Relativity Entertainment will inevitably usher in acquisitions or other commercial treatments.
Before its own strength is not strong enough, this will make a lot of variables in the future development out of thin air.
Soon, the overseas first-round screening results of "The Bourne" also spread to Los Angeles. The film's first weekend in more than 30 countries and regions won the overseas box office of 45.6 million US dollars.
In the coming weeks, the film's release range will rapidly expand to all parts of the world, including the eastern market across the Pacific.
The excellent box office performance and word-of-mouth of "The Bourne" also attracted the attention of many people, some of whom focused on the company behind the film.
The resources for publicity and distribution are naturally closer to "The Bourne".
In the "Vanity Fair" interview with Jason Byrne as the cover character, a passage from Ronan as the producer was also published.
