Chapter 1131: beginning

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

In particular, the filming, production and promotion and distribution of the film are proceeding as planned.

In late January, the masterpiece directed by Uvi-Bauer was released again as the first film of Relativity Entertainment.

"The Demon Hunter Washington" held its premiere in Richmond, the capital of Virginia. It is said that it was in this state that Washington achieved the feat of cutting down the cherry tree demon, thus embarking on the road of saving the United States with other founding fathers. .

This movie is not just the adventure of a person in Washington, but also the like-minded Franklin and Jefferson in the movie.

The phrase "human beings will never be slaves," Washington also shouted sonorously.

Last year’s "Vampire Hunter Lincoln" caused a good market response, and it also made enough warm-up for "The Witch Hunter Washington". Coupled with the attraction of Uvi-Bauer's internet celebrity director, many audiences are willing to do this. Pay for the movie.

"The Demon Hunter Washington" was released in North America in its first week. Although it lost to the US$32 million "Department Cop" produced and released by Sony Columbia Pictures, which was released at the same time, it only ranked second on the box office list, but it was still in 3750 theaters. Received $22.66 million.

This achievement is about to reach the production cost of three of 8 million US dollars.

Although the reputation of the film is still a mess, it does not prevent Uvi-Bauer from achieving another commercial success as a director.

Brother Bao's road of directing is far from the end.

Perhaps after shooting so many invincible video game adaptation movies, and being a licking dog for Blizzard and World of Warcraft for several years, but at the end of the lick and still nothing, Uvi-Bauer has learned something and found his own Film road.

Once Uvi-Bauer's film was so bad, in addition to its own problems, 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 run films instead of making them well.

Just like the super-patterned horror movies like "Reaper Is Here" and "Saw Cry", Uvi-Bauer also has a group of audiences that belong to him.

Reflected in the movie, "The Witch Hunter Washington" only took ten days and the North American box office exceeded 40 million US dollars, which easily brought huge profits to Relativity Entertainment.

The last "Vampire Hunter Lincoln" earned US$152.68 million worldwide, but the box office share alone brought tens of millions of dollars in profits to Relativity Entertainment.

The film will also be shown 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 following three sports leagues.

The Super Bowl is basically placed 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 Super Bowl weekend will be greatly affected.

Hollywood movies with a slightly larger investment will basically focus on the next weekend, which is also the weekend before Valentine's Day. Many movies are planning to squeeze the Valentine's Day schedule to get a satisfactory income.

Among them, there are two most eye-catching movies: One is the third "Lunar Eclipse" of the "Twilight" series under Relativity Entertainment, and the other is a science fiction produced and released by Twentieth Century Fox almost exclusively. The huge production "Terminator 2018".

Both of these films are the sequels of the big hit series. The former created a series of magical records last year, which can be called the miracle of fan movies.

The production cost of the latter is as high as US$200 million, and 20th Century Fox has invested US$150 million in global promotion and distribution.

Twentieth Century Fox had high hopes for this super giant.

Similarly, Relativity Entertainment is also looking forward to "Twilight Saga: Lunar Eclipse" to get the same revenue and profits as "New Moon".

One year after the release of "New Moon", the one-year financial report data of this film was also collected and passed to Ronan's office.

The final North American box office of "New Moon" was US$315.04 million, the overseas box office exceeded US$413.06 million, and the final global box office was US$728.1 million.

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

In terms of home entertainment, led by DVD, "New Moon" has global revenues of US$185.69 million.

On global television rights and online on-demand broadcasts, the film received US$151.25 million.

Since peripheral products and copyrights are separately accounted for, the total revenue of the film only counts these three items, totaling US$613.44 million.

In terms of cost, the production cost of "New Moon" is US$45 million, the global promotion and distribution costs are US$84.5 million, and the cost of home entertainment and television rights totals US$26.5 million. The crew involves Lindsay Bill and director Catherine Hardwick and The other main creators’ union stipulated that the subsequent share was 16.2 million US dollars, the Pacific Foundation’s investment interest was 15.7 million US dollars, the daily management expenses of Relativity Entertainment and other expenses were 32.1 million US 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 some tricks that belong to Hollywood, such as the daily management fees of film companies and other expenses.

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

The film will continue to shine, and in 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 "Lunar Eclipse" for one year will not be lower than that of "New Moon", even if there are behemoths like "Terminator 2018" in the movies released in the same period.

Twentieth Century Fox encountered financial difficulties and was eager to recover funds. "Terminator 2018" was also specially selected for the February Valentine's Day schedule, a time period when audience enthusiasm was highest between the New Year and the summer.

Even Rupert Murdoch personally invited James Cameron back from the South Pacific to attend the premiere of "Terminator 2018" to create momentum for the film's publicity.

Compared with the big investment by Fox in the 20th century, Embassy Pictures’ promotion of "Twilight Saga: Lunar Eclipse" is still based on last year’s policy. The publicity center mainly centers on Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. The couple files unfold.

This propaganda plot has been pushed by Embassy Pictures to the stage where Robert Pattinson proposes to Christine Stewart.

The two attended the Super Bowl last weekend together. The diamond ring on Kristen Stewart's finger was extremely dazzling. Under the impetus of Relativity Entertainment, they even stole a lot of the limelight from the Super Bowl winner Pittsburgh Steelers.

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

Robert Pattinson and Christine Stewart signed an agreement long ago under the impetus of the agency and Embassy Pictures. Regardless of whether their relationship is true or false, they will both be before the end of the "Twilight" series. Don't derail or break up.

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

This couple, both true and false, played an extremely important role in the promotion of the "Twilight" series. Whether it was in the hands of Lionsgate, 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 film marketing.

"Lunar Eclipse", as a film with a completely female audience as its audience, successfully continued the successful momentum of "New Moon". On the first day of its release in North America, it broke the series record and received US$66.83 million, easily overwhelming the same period. The super giant "Terminator 2018" stood at the top of the North American box office rankings on the day it was released!

"Terminator 2018" finally collected the seventh dragon ball for 20th Century Fox!

This super masterpiece received 11.4 million US dollars on its first day, and the audience's response was extremely average.

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

In fact, even if the governor returns, the audience will not pay for this film.

Is Judgment Day over? Will there be robots going back to the past in the future? The constant shuttle of time may be tiresome.

The "Terminator" series originated from a great idea, but now it has evolved into a terrible mistake.

In the following three days, although both "Lunar Eclipse" and "Terminator 2018" showed a trend of continuous sharp declines in the box office, and even the latter fell even smaller, the overall audience of "Terminator 2018" was too low.

Three days after the opening weekend in North America This sci-fi production only received 26.62 million US dollars. Compared with the huge investment, it can only be described by the super tragic flutter.

Although "Lunar Eclipse" attracted a lot of scolding, and its overall reputation hit a new low in the series, it was still the treasure of young women. It collected US$157.77 million in three days. Not only did it win the box office chart, it was easy to draw on the weekend. Achieve large profits!

The latter two parts of this series have all been filmed 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".

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

The fiasco of "Terminator 2018" was the first to be reflected in the stock market. The stock price of Fox in the twentieth century plummeted. On the first trading day after the opening of the box office in North America, the market value evaporated by more than one billion US dollars.

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