Chapter 562

"The horror movie "Dead Silence" screened last Friday earned more than 97.5 million in North America, just one step away from the $100 million in North America."

"The screening of "Dead Silence" continues to decline, and the attendance rate is barely maintained at 40%, but it still tops the North American weekly box office championship with US$45.56 million."

"Wen Ziren is still strong. Will he be the next terror master?"

...

Early in the morning, Wen Ziren was in a very good mood. After having breakfast and reading the newspaper, he rushed to the Firefly Building with satisfaction.

By the way, after his second directing work continued to succeed, his position in the Hollywood director circle was obviously bullish.

Many film studios have sent invitations to work with him.

Of course, Wan Ziren knew very well how all this came about. Without Lehman's support, his career would not have been so steady.

Therefore, he did not think of breaking away from Firefly Pictures' embrace, which was also the profits of Lehmann's willingness to share the film's production.

He knew very well that temporary emotions could not match the same interests.

No matter what, as long as Wan Ziren can understand that other studios cannot give more than too much film revenue and voice, he will naturally have a good impression of Firefly Pictures.

After meeting, Lehman first congratulated him a few words, his tone was full of praise.

Wen Ziren waved his hand and said, "Lyman, you are too polite. Don't be like this."

By the way, Wen Ziren has now embarked on a different path from his previous life, and even his film career is smoother. His existence has proved to some extent Lyman's vision of cultivating.

Therefore, he is really happy for Wan Ziren, not just for profit.

After a greeting, Lehman asked Wen Ziren to sit down and asked the assistant to serve a cup of coffee.

In fact, he asked Wen Ziren to come today for the box office bonus.

After all, seeing that "Dead Silence" has exceeded 100 million, the main creator, Lehman, wanted to send a red envelope to show his win.

This is actually a monetization and encourages production staff to make more movies that sell out.

As soon as he said that, Wen Ziren refused and said, "I have already obtained a lot, so let's forget about the bonus."

He is not a very greedy person, and he can even be said to be very conscious of the times.

In my previous life, except for a little bit of dirty work with Lions Gate, I worked very happily with Global and Warner.

"Don't worry, it's just an incentive. There's not much money, it's just a form. If you don't take it, will the crew members be embarrassed to take it?"

This statement has a sense of changing the concept. Although the director is a brain-level figure in the crew, it does not mean that his hands, feet and torso are not important. Moreover, the director generally receives a lot, which is far higher than the salary of the producers.

Of course, it is also a fact that the money is low. Lehman only plans to pay 0.3% of the box office revenue, which is about 400,000 or 500,000 yuan to follow the project.

This money, when it comes to so many people, is actually about a month's salary.

Moreover, this is still the biggest hit in "Dead Silence". If the movie is not very profitable, Firefly Pictures will definitely not give any bonuses.

But since you want to publish it, you can't be too special. After all, those production teams are also the foundation of a studio.

Lehman said this, and of course Wen Ziren will no longer insist.

Although, he didn't think it was necessary.

After chatting for a while, Wan Ziren suddenly asked: "The new film released by Bowei International is released? Will it have a great impact on "Dead Silence"?"

Lehman laughed and said, "Don't worry, the audiences of the two movies do not overlap. Those who like to watch horror movies will not like to watch "Dead Silence" just because of a suspense movie. The opponents of "Dead Silence" only have market restrictions and no competition restrictions. At least, there will be no such restrictions in this September."

Wen Ziren nodded, "I have always believed in your judgment, this is true in the past and the future."

"So, we have to do a big career together," Lehman said in a joke.

...

Thursday night, September 23.

The suspense movie "Air Crisis" held its North American premiere.

The producer of this film is quite complicated. The project itself is provided by a second-rate media company such as Relativity, but it was found Global, and the three investors jointly produced it. Then, for the sake of more reasonable distribution of interests, the distribution business was taken over by Bowei International - of course, this is actually the mainstream production model in Hollywood, and it is about risk operation and regulating capital.

But obviously, if the project is really profitable, no one will be so stupid as to share the cake in vain.

Therefore, the prospects of this project are actually not very optimistic about a group of people, but they think that it may be profitable to operate, so they got together.

The protagonists of this film are found in Judy Foster and Sean Bin.

By the way, the powerful actress Judy plays the roles of the resolute and courageous type, from "The Silence of the Lambs" to "The Shivering Space" to "The Insider", all have the same role settings.

In fact, Judy's face is clear and angular, and her facial features are straight, so she looks like she is not a weak woman.

As for the plot of this film, of course it is not that excellent, and the rhythm is extremely slow. Anyway, Lehman doesn't feel any tension or substitution when he sees it.

A suspense film cannot attract audiences in terms of mystery and revealing, and is obviously not a high-quality work.

In fact, Lehman also attended the premiere of Bowei International for the film.

After all, Bowei International is the distribution channel of the Disney faction. It has a high status in Hollywood and has many resources.

At the venue, Disney executives also tested Lehman whether he would like to cooperate with Disney.

But how is this possible?

If Firefly Pictures wants to rise, the one that needs the most limitation is Disney.

Otherwise, when the six majors become five majors, or even ones top four, there will be opportunities for Firefly Pictures to be available.

It is probably like the lion gate who likes to jump blindly in the future. It is suppressed and will be depressed.

After all, if you don’t give good schedules or schedule good films, which studio can compete with Disney?

Isn't this a joke?

Of course, Lehman didn't say anything. He is now used to not making promises easily and not offend such Hollywood giants easily.

Lehman finally eased his relationship with Paramount and grabbed Warner and Lions Gate. In the future, he would not get enemies everywhere when he entered a wider distribution and production business.

As the saying goes, unite the majority and hit a small group. Warner seems to be the most powerful one here, but Warner lacks foundation and seems to be growing at an average rate in Disney's film business, but they have the most comprehensive peripheral promotion and killer - supporting animation production, as well as a lot of character images, such as Donald Duck, the Lion King and other classic authorizations.

It can be said that no one has ever been able to compete with Disney for his old job.

Moreover, this is still the potential has not been fully released, otherwise it will be even more terrifying.
