Chapter 1963： Good film like tide (below)
"Resident Evil", which has carried the comic fans' expectations for so many years, after the investigation and the trial meeting, the major theaters have given great support.
In North America alone, a total of 3,550 screens participated in the premiere, which also included 1,000 IMAX screens from Yishan in the United States.
At first glance, this is not as much as when the "Life and Death Speed" and "Superman 2" hit the ring. After all, about 4,000 shares have been mentioned at that time.
But now it has been more than 5 years since then, and the situation is completely different.
First of all, the seven major groups in Hollywood, as well as those small and medium-sized production companies, have produced more movies than before.
If the total number of movies increases, then the number of screens obtained per movie will decrease.
No matter how hot your movie is, without good feedback from the box office, the number of 3000 is a very insurmountable goal.
This time, if there were n’t so many comic fan enthusiasts, it would have been popular fans like Alice, Johnny Depp and Keanu Reeves. The guarantee is that the number of 3550 screens is absolutely unavailable.
Last year's popular "Mission Impossible" was only more than 2,600 premiere screens.
Then look next, if more than 1,000 IMAX screens are calculated based on the fare of 15-20 US dollars, they are already about 5 times that of ordinary movie tickets.
Such calculations are equivalent to the release of more than 7,000 ordinary screens, which far exceeds the "Life and Death Speed" and "Superman 2".
In fact, the number of premiere screens for "Resident Evil" has already caused a sensation in the United States.
Many experts at the movie box office market have begun to predict whether the third movie with a box office of more than $ 1 billion is about to be born?
"Resident Evil" did not disappoint the expected people.
It broke the US $ 25 million box office on the first day. It broke the single-day North American box office record set by Mission Impossible and broke 20 million US dollars. It also became the first North American box office to exceed 20 million US dollars on the first day. the film.
Not only has the box office achieved a great harvest, it has also been praised by many comic fans on the word of mouth, and it has restored the scenes in the comics, whether it is Alice, Matt, Rene, etc. People were quickly substituted into the movie without any discomfort and drama.
And that cost a lot
With such word of mouth, many manga fans who are watching are also pouring into the cinema to watch the classics in their minds on Saturday.
So the following weekend, with the support of so many movie fans and comic fans, the box office of "Resident Evil" climbed again, reaching 31 million US dollars, and immediately broke the North American single-day box office record yesterday.
The box office on Sunday was also very good, only falling by about 13%, to close at 26 million US dollars.
At the box office in the first three days of the weekend, the score was $ 82 million, which created a box office history and made everyone stunned.
This is how many people have reacted. Perhaps the total box office revenue of $ 1 billion is not a dream!
But only Yin Jun knew that the $ 1 billion box office in the first episode of "Resident Evil" should not break the $ 1 billion box office.
The two movies with more than 1 billion US dollars at the box office-"." And "The Lion King", are big movies for the whole family, and they appeared very early. At that time, the movies were not as many as they are now, not so big. Competition, so we can create a box office of 1 billion US dollars.
It's not that there will be no more $ 1 billion in movies in the future, there are actually many, but it should not belong to the present.
Even "Jurassic Park" was barely able to break the $ 1 billion box office, let alone the "Resident Evil" with a smaller audience.
Of course, after continuous accumulation, "Resident Evil 2" or "Resident Evil 3", up to "Resident Evil 4", a single movie box office should also be able to exceed 1 billion US dollars.
But that is also the case where the market is constantly being cultivated, and the people's enthusiasm for watching movies continues to increase.
Today's "Resident Evil" can not be said badly, nor can it be said that the audience does not support it. According to Yin Jun's observation of the global box office, if there is no breakthrough of 100 million in the first weekend in North America today, then according to North American box office and other The proportion of the global box office, 1 billion US dollars is really unlikely.
It's a pity to think about it.
"Resident Evil" is by far the most expensive movie in the world.
Its production cost alone reached 150 million US dollars, including special effects of 80 million US dollars, which also created a record in history.
Then, the global publicity costs of "Resident Evil" are as high as 100 million US dollars, which adds up to 250 million US dollars.
In the history of human cinema, there has never been such a high-cost movie.
This is also thanks to the three male and female protagonists of "Resident Evil"-Zhong Chuhong, Johnny Depp and Keanu Reeves, who are all actors of Kirin Culture. The latter two also signed 30 films with Kirin Culture for 20 years. Contract, so the basic pay is only 1 million US dollars.
Although they will also participate in the subsequent profit dividends, on the whole, they have pressed down the film rewards.
If at ordinary prices, based on Johnny Depp's consecutive good performances in "Rainman" and "Jackson Jack", in terms of the popularity of Keanu Reeves' "Dragon Island", at least It should start at $ 5 million.
If so, the pay will increase a lot again.
Even Spielberg didn't get much guaranteed pay. He took 2 million dollars plus 5% of the global box office share.
no way.
Spielberg was no longer the popular director of "The Treasure Hunt", he was the super director who made a super blockbuster like ".", So the score was also different from others.
People only take the North American box office share, even Keanu Reeves and Johnny Depp only take the box office profit share, but Spielberg directly takes the box office share.
How much money is sold, whether it is profit or cost, then there is his share.
This is only the first part, Spielberg looked at Yin Jun's face, not very demanding.
If Spielberg is also the director and producer of the second and third parts, his agent will definitely demand a share of the profit of derivative products.
This includes profits from TV copyrights, video tapes, and comics peripheral products.
In the case of super blockbusters such as "Resident Evil", with the support of comic fans and the bonus of the movie, it will definitely be a big sale in the peripheral products of the comic. The profit is definitely much higher than the box office profit of the movie. .
Now the production and distribution costs of Resident Evil are US $ 250 million, and the global box office needs at least US $ 650 million to pay back.
"Resident Evil" of course can reach 650 million US dollars at the box office, but even if it is a total of 1 billion US dollars at the box office, the maximum box office share you can get is only 400 million US dollars-the largest box office in North America is divided according to 50%.
The pre-tax profit of 400 million US dollars, minus the cost of producing and issuing 250 million US dollars, is only a profit of 150 million US dollars.
Then after removing the dividends to Spielberg and Zhong Chuhong, and then removing the tax payment fees, how many tens of millions will be left?
A movie with a box office of US $ 1 billion actually earns only tens of millions of US dollars, and the input cost is as high as US $ 250 million. This shows how big a film production cost is for a film company, what a big risk!
Normally, many film companies have failed because of the failure of one or two major productions.
Even a super-large group like Kirin Group will suffer a lot of losses if it fights on "Resident Evil"-a loss of 120 million US dollars, how many movies have to be made to earn it?
Fortunately, the Hollywood giants definitely have more than the income of the movie box office. In order to make the best use of their resources, they develop the surrounding profits at all costs to increase their income.
For example, the revenues of TV copyrights and video tapes are very high, and should account for 20% of the box office.
If it is specifically placed on "Resident Evil", this ratio will have to increase a lot.
Because many fans of "Resident Evil" comics definitely want to collect a set of movie versions of "Resident Evil" as their collection ~ www.novelhall.com ~ So, on this piece, the net profit of 300 million US dollars There is.
Then the larger income is still on the peripheral products of the comics of "Resident Evil".
Whether it is the dolls of Alice and others, the authorization of clothes, shoes and jewelry, or the income of advertising games, etc., it is a long-term profit.
According to the statistics of Lianyi Film Company, this 5-year revenue and profit will at least reach 500 million US dollars!
When the second and third parts are released, with the participation and support of global comic fans, the profits of these peripheral products will be higher.
Think about it, if Spielberg asked for the share of these profits, the income of his movie was not properly over 100 million US dollars?
You can directly obtain such a high profit without taking any risks, so it is really a gold-absorbing machine for this super director!
But Yin Jun did not have so many ideas.
Spielberg can take so much, it means that he shoots well and his performance is very good.
You earn more, so the actors who participated in the overall production should naturally receive more rewards. This is the normal market law.
If you want to make "Resident Evil" into a long-lasting super classic, and energy sources continue to exert their influence and become a signboard of the Kirin Group, these costs are nothing.
Don't forget, "Resident Evil" can also be made into a very large area in the theme park!
Just like the performances of "Harry Potter", "Spider-Man" and other special zones in Universal Studios, countless people every day will contribute their own money!
...
(The friends who have squeezed through Universal Studios are really heroes. I heard that it ’s much harder to wait in line than Disney ^ _ ^)
In North America alone, a total of 3,550 screens participated in the premiere, which also included 1,000 IMAX screens from Yishan in the United States.
