Chapter 1797 Horror Film Market

In the United States, it is naturally impossible for Yin Jun to accompany his two wives and two daughters all day long.

When people are in the arena, they can't help themselves.

But if it wasn't something very urgent, the boy would work while they were resting every day.

This made Ye Linqinwa next to her feel inexplicably distressed.

He is already the richest man in the world, and he is still a rare genius. He spends the day with his wife and children, but he still has to stay up late at night to handle official duties. He often goes to bed at two or three o'clock, and has to get up again at five or six o'clock the next day.

All day long, Yin Jun never had time to himself.

In Ye Linqinwa's mind, the kind of wealthy people who play golf all day long, leisurely discuss business in cafes, and go to bars to pick up girls at night... This kind of upper-class life is really not seen in Yin Jun.

correct.

The world's richest man basically doesn't drink. He only drinks some fruit wine or wine when he can't escape.

Apart from the shortcoming of having too many women, he is really flawless.

But that’s fine too.

If Yin Jun doesn't even have this shortcoming, then Ye Linqinwa has to worry about whether this guy is an alien.

Speaking of Yin Jun's women, Ye Linqinwa has already become numb.

Sophie Marceau is nothing, Weng Meiling is nothing, and Wen Bixia is nothing.

But the two women in front of them, these two women who have no status but gave birth to Yin Jun's daughter, one is an Oscar-winning actress and the other is the world's number one singing queen.

Even Ye Linqinwa, who has never been in a relationship, would not believe it if they said they followed Yin Jun because they loved money.

In the final analysis, it can only be said that Yin Jun's charm is great.

It's so big that Ye Linqinwa is a little obsessed. She even thinks about whether she should go to work somewhere else next year and stay away from this boss?

She wasn't afraid that Yin Jun would use force or anything, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to resist him and would throw herself into his arms... Well, this is almost like Jiewa!

Not to mention Ye Linqinwa’s little thoughts.

Yin Jun himself is quite busy, but he has not given up caring about his film career.

The recent frequent release of movies in November and December has given Yin Jun some illusions, thinking that it is the summer season, or that it has entered the Christmas season in advance.

Of course, in fact, November is also a very important period.

Horror thriller schedule.

Around Halloween on November 1st, it’s a good time for horror movies to make money.

United Artists Pictures has featured two horror thrillers this year.

The first one is of course the number one horror series in the United States - "Saw".

The second part of "Saw" directly took in a global box office of 560 million U.S. dollars. Among them, in Japan, South Korea and Australia, it took in a box office of 250 million U.S. dollars. It was really shocking. People were impressed.

This must be due to Kirin Cinema's large-scale promotion and publicity, and also because American films have been cultivating the inherent market for these horror films for many years.

This is nothing. What’s even more exaggerated is that in just one year, the global video sales of “Saw 2” were 20 million!

The price of video tapes in 1984 was the same as in previous years, with a video tape selling for $30.

20 million plates is 600 million US dollars.

Even after excluding all expenses, the net profit the "Saw 2" video brought to the North American branch of Kirin Group exceeded US$200 million!

Then there is the broadcasting rights for cable television, with a five-year package price, and the global rights were sold to the same company, ABC, for US$20 million.

Tsk tsk, look at it!

No wonder people say that the box office in North America is actually not a profitable point at all, and it is the peripherals that make the big money!

"Saw 2" earned US$220 million from these two items. How lucrative is this?

In such a situation, how could United Artists Film Company not release a third film immediately?

Even if they know that releasing it so frequently will definitely reduce the value of "Saw".

But how can money attract people's hearts?

Even if the profit is half less, that is still a profit of two to three billion US dollars. Isn’t that enough?

Yin Jun did not pursue these matters. Hollywood has its own most mature operating model.

If it really doesn't work, they will put the series down for a few years, or even more than ten years, and then wait until the time is right to come back again.

It's not their fault to strike while the iron is hot.

Anyway, "Saw" has been proven by facts, it is a very long-lived horror movie series.

After more than a month, the results of "Saw 3" are naturally not bad. The global box office has reached 400 million U.S. dollars, which cannot reach the peak of 560 million U.S. dollars in the second episode, but 450 million U.S. dollars can still be expected. .

With the original production team of producer Chen Xunqi and director Yu Yunchang, it is natural that many people will buy into the movie.

They seem to be a golden couple in the eyes of Americans. They are very popular and many people have already identified them.

Even many people who used to look down on horror movies came to support "Saw 3" because of "The Sixth Sense" and "The X-Files".

On the other hand, this year's second season of "The X-Files" and "The Sixth Sense" also attracted many fans of "Saw 2" to support them. It can be regarded as a courtesy and affectionate relationship.

Yu Yungang and Chen Xunqi were really busy.

After finishing filming "The Sixth Sense", they were preparing for "Saw 3". The post-production of "Saw 3" was completed in August, and they immediately devoted themselves to the third season of "The X-Files".

Fortunately, neither of them are people with strong needs. Otherwise, they would not even have time to applaud for love, and they might both be driven crazy.

And Yin Jun also promised them that besides "Saw 4" and "X-Files", he will not arrange any other work next year, so they can finally have about half a year to breathe.

Thanks to the fact that they are shooting horror movies and seasonal TV series, they don't have much time to shoot. Otherwise, if they work on two projects a year, there won't be much time to rest.

The success of "Saw 3" was expected by everyone.

However, after "Saw 3", another horror movie produced by United Artists in mid-November, called "The Haunted Bride", unexpectedly rose to prominence, raking in US$110 million in North American box office in one month. , which is a bit shocking.

Many people don’t understand the horror film market in North America.

In fact, horror films are a very good category among Hollywood's top seven.

Why?

Because horror movies don’t need big-name stars to line up, as long as the plot is exciting and exciting, who cares if they are stars?

Saving the millions and millions of stars' salaries and dividends, the production cost of horror films is usually between 1 million and 3 million.

Generally speaking, 5 million US dollars is already a top dollar!

The box office results of horror movies are generally pretty good.

As long as it goes to theaters, it's no problem to get 10 to 20 million.

In terms of cost, this has already started to make money, and then there are video tapes and TV broadcasts, etc., which are also hundreds of millions in profits, and good ones can reach tens of millions.

Therefore, the investment and return ratio of horror movies is higher than that of commercial blockbusters!

Half of the US$20 million production cost of "Saw 3" was paid to the director and producer. Chen Xunqi and Yu Yunchang received much more, but this is what they should receive.

"Saw 2" created a net profit of more than 400 million for the company. What's wrong with getting a salary of more than 10 million?

Yin Jun had already signed two checks for 20 million US dollars for "Saw 2", and now it seems that he has to give them again.

But "The Ghost Bride" was not a movie that people were very optimistic about before, even though it was also written by Yin Jun.

But its director is also a director from Hong Kong.

Everyone laughed secretly, Yin Jun was too superstitious about his own people, did he think that every director could be as lucky as Yu Yungang and Chen Xunqi?

However, when the results came out, a group of people looked at each other, feeling surprised and panicked.

In the North American market, it is not unusual for a horror film to gross over 30 million U.S. dollars. There are also many films that gross 50 million U.S. dollars, and some that earn 70 to 80 million U.S. dollars.

But movies like "The Ghost Bride", which took in a box office of US$110 million in about a month, are definitely rare.

Historically, horror films like this have been developed into successful film series and made a lot of money.

For example, the previous "Saw" was!

Doggy!

It's not enough that your Kirin Group has a "Saw", but you have another "Ghost Bride". Is this going to dominate the Halloween schedule again?

Yin Jun burst into laughter when he heard this rumor.

Everyone knows horror movies make money, don’t I?

Are these two movies too many?

When my third horror movie "Human Purge" is released next year, you will know what colorful and colorful colors are!

In fact, no one could see that Yin Jun's choice was very smart.

"Saw" is mainly a plasma film that stimulates violence and horror.

"The Ghost Bride" mainly focuses on psychological horror, which belongs to the cold category.

The main attraction of the third "Human Purge Plan" is horror, a kind of disorderly chaos.

The three movies each have their own categories, and there will definitely be no conflict. Instead, they will bring more people who like horror movies together under the banner of Kirin Group.

Based on these movies, United Artists Film Company naturally has a major weapon.

Apart from Disney's own brand, other film companies are not afraid of making horror films, but they are afraid that they have no characteristics. There is nothing wrong with being famous for horror films.

In fact, did the subsidiaries under Disney in the previous life still make horror films?

Of course, horror movies cannot represent the company's image.

If a company wants to truly dominate Hollywood, it really needs to produce several movies like "Titanic", "Lord of the Rings", "Harry Potter", and "Avatar"!

Therefore, even though the North American branch of Kirin Group is at its peak now, it is still early for it to truly dominate the world!
