Close the script and put it in the drawer. Come to the company today, there are still important things to do. Chen Dong informed his secretary to ask Li Rixin to come over and lie down. A few minutes later, Li Rixin knocked on the door and walked in, "Mr. Chen, do you have anything to do with me?" "Sit down, how is the screening of "‡å" going?" Chen Dong asked Li Rixin. Li Rixin was already prepared. He took out a piece of paper from the folder in his hand and handed it to Chen Dong. He said, "Mr. Chen, the total box office of "‡å‡å" is 1.25 billion. The domestic box office has exceeded 1.2 billion, reaching 1.22 billion." However, overseas, the box office is not very satisfactory, only Thailand¡¯s box office is considered acceptable.¡± Chen Dong took the form and looked at it. It was released in the mainland for 68 days and received a box office of 1.22 billion. As a medium-cost comedy with an investment of only more than 40 million yuan, this achievement is already difficult to surpass. However, overseas, Thailand is not embarrassing. Except for Thailand, the box office Ranked 6th in the first week, it is considered a pass. This result is also thanks to the movie being shot in Thailand. After "Thailand" was released in the mainland, it became very famous in Thailand, because this movie was shot in Thailand, Thailand People feel very proud and spread the word spontaneously. Secondly, "Thailand" contains Thai culture, religion, customs, scenery and other things, which is more in line with Thailand's atmosphere. It was a hit elsewhere. The film was released in Xiangjiang, earning only RMB 590,000 in four days of release. It disappeared from the rankings in the second week and faded out of the film schedules of various theaters. In North America, 29 theaters affiliated with AMC Theaters conducted screenings, and the box office on the first day was only a dismal $9,000+. About 700 people came to watch it, and it only earned $32,200 over the weekend. Even during prime time, only 15 people were seated in one theater. For. Chen Dong had already expected this result. It is normal to encounter Waterloo overseas. It¡¯s not that Thailand is not good-looking or ¡®embarrassing¡¯. There is an unspoken rule in Hollywood called ¡®Comedies don¡¯t move away¡¯. That is, it is difficult for comedy-themed films to satisfy the tastes of audiences in multiple markets at the same time. Even American comedy stars usually do not do well in other countries. The same goes for comedies from other countries. Chen Dong put down the form and said to Li Rixin, "Thank you for your hard work! Next, the company plans to shoot 2~3 movies and 1~2 TV series within a year." After saying that, Chen Dong took out "Love Comes" from the drawer. Li Rixin wrote the script for "Left". Li Rixin took the script and took a rough look at it. Said to Chen Dong. "This is an urban sitcom. Urban sitcoms are very popular in the United States, such as "Friends" and "Broke Sisters", which are popular TV series. However, there are very few such TV series in China. It is very risky to start filming rashly. Let¡¯s not talk about whether the audience can accept it. Moreover, if this is the company¡¯s first drama, it will have a great negative impact on the company. I think it will be another subject, such as the Qing Palace, which is the most popular one nowadays. Dramas, urban fashion dramas, and youth dramas are better. There are some popular novels on the Internet that are very suitable for adaptation into TV dramas. " Li Rixin did not agree with the filming of "Love Is Coming", an urban sitcom, and expressed his thoughts. Filming the most popular Qing palace dramas, urban fashion dramas, and youth dramas is low risk, and you can make a lot of money by following the trend. Chen Dong can understand Li Rixin¡¯s thoughts. There are very few TV dramas of this type in the Mainland, urban sitcoms, and I am worried that the audience will not accept it. In addition, this TV series is the company's first drama. If it fails, it will have a great negative impact on the company. ??It is a safe idea to choose to film the most popular types of TV series such as Qing Dynasty dramas, youth dramas, and bitter love dramas. These types of TV series have a large audience group, the risk is small, and you can also make a fortune by following the trend. Chen Dong smiled and said, "Don't you think that Qing palace dramas have been overpopulated? As soon as the audience turned on the TV, they heard, "Cha, Princess, Huang Ama, Minions,", and the filming was nothing new, the same bitterness + abuse, filming It¡¯s so bad that it¡¯s so bad that the audience will vomit after seeing it. It¡¯s no longer interesting to film anymore. The key to whether a TV series can attract the audience is not what type of TV series it is, but what it uses to attract the audience. For example, the use of sad dramas. All kinds of "abuse" are used to attract the audience. The selling point of youth dramas is "youth", the selling point of the movie "Love Is Coming" is comedy, love, romance, and love. These things are used to attract the audience, so I believe "Love Is Coming" will definitely become a hit after hearing what Chen Dong said, Li Rixin was convinced. "You will be the director of "Love Is Coming"," Li Rixin said to Chen Dong. "No, I am not good at this type of TV series. I plan to find a director who is good at making this type of comedy TV series." Chen Dong said. Li Rixin nodded. ??"Love Is Coming" comes to an end. Next, there are two more things. First, the company¡¯s first movie. Second, regarding the preparation of the concert. Chen Dong took out a novel from the drawer and handed it to Li Rixin. The dark red cover shows a little boy riding a broomstick and wearing wide-rimmed glasses. On the side is the name and publishing company of the novel, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", Habery Publishing Company, of course. The English, mainland version of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has not yet been released. ""Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone"!" Li Rixin took the novel and said in surprise. "Yes, this is the company's first movie, and the script has been adapted." Chen Dong said. "The Philosopher's Stone, the first part of "Harry Potter" has been distributed all over the world and has cultivated countless Harry Potter fans. They are definitely looking forward to the movie version of "Harry Potter". "It's the perfect time to shoot it now." The original time and space, the "Harry Potter" film series, was produced by Warner Bros. Pictures in the United States. The 7 episodes of the novel were made into 8 films. It is the best-selling film series in the history of the world, with a total box office revenue of 7.8 billion US dollars. Around "Harry Potter", a huge industrial chain including publishing, movies, derivatives, peripheral products, etc. has been indirectly formed. Aspi: Just relying on a series of "Harry Potter" movie versions can make Starlight Entertainment become the world's top film company. "Boss, how much do you plan to invest in "Harry Potter"?" Li Rixin asked. Chen Dong said, "800 million, which is equivalent to about 130 million U.S. dollars." Chen Dong remembers that the original investment of Warner Bros. Pictures in the production of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" was 125 million U.S. dollars. Of course, the investment budget is not just 130 million U.S. dollars, it requires Chen Dong to provide 130 million U.S. dollars, and it also includes various sponsorships. With the popularity of the physical novel version of "Harry Potter" around the world, the number of sponsors that can be attracted Quite a few. (To be continued)
