Chapter 2021 Keep Moving Forward
Ridley Scott is a very good director. Although he is not as famous as Spielberg, his achievements in movies are not much worse than Spielberg.
In his previous life, Spielberg had super hit films such as "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Jurassic Park", but Ridley Scott also made "Alien", "Black Hawk Down" and "Gladiator" Such a super classic.
Although after 2000, like many old directors, he was gradually no longer popular in the market, but now it is the 1980s, and Ridley Scott, who is about 50 years old, happens to be the time when his creative energy is the most vigorous.
What's more, the successive filming of "Alien" and "Blade Runner" has allowed him to accumulate a lot of experience. Making films with tense, terrifying and depressing atmosphere like "I Am Legend" happens to be what he is best at.
Yin Jun is not as "harsh" on directors as actors. The reason is not that he is unwilling, but that directors are more uncontrollable factors than actors.
First of all, their identities are not easy to control. The director has a lot of autonomy in what movie he wants to make and how he wants to do it. Unlike actors, they have to do what you want them to do.
The status of other directors is also much higher.
And more importantly, there is not much money to be made in signing a long-term contract or a feature contract with a director.
After all, compared to big stars who have a good exposure rate and have additional benefits such as sponsorship, advertisements, and endorsements, behind-the-scenes workers like directors don't earn much money for the company.
What's more, Yin Jun has the world's best-selling movie in the next 30 years, and he basically relies on the director's own ability to make movies.
He just had to pick the right director for the movie.
Everyone signs a contract, cooperates according to the agreement, and finally makes money and shares, it's as simple as that.
Moreover, Yin Jun has a movie script, a production company, and a special effects company in his hands, so the director's role is not the most important, and the share of what he gives can be less, so that the company can make more money.
Like Spielberg, a movie earns more than 200 million U.S. dollars, which is hated by every company.
Of course, like Nicholson played the role of the Joker in "Batman", relying on the progressive contract, he took more than 60 million dividends in one go, which also made the production company want to cry without tears.
Yin Jun does not deny the role of directors and producers, nor will he be stingy in giving them dividends, but this is not the kind of thing that makes the production company lose money, but makes actors, directors and producers a lot of money.
Therefore, Yin Jun will be more stringent in controlling costs in the future.
Speaking of the directors we can often cooperate with, Robert Zemeckis, who was a rookie director the year before last, has now directed the second part of "Back to the Future", and he came in this summer in early August.
Summer vacation is the most tragic period in the film market in North America and even in the world.
Compared with the Christmas and New Year stalls in December, the competition is even fiercer.
Rao is a super movie country with more than 10,000 screens like North America, and it can only accommodate about 4 super blockbusters a month at most. They have to be screened separately, and they cannot all be released in a rush.
"Back to the Future 2" has good results in the first part, so everyone is very optimistic about it. Shirley Lansing decisively made it the main feature in this year's summer file.
Facts have proved that Shirley Lansing's vision is very correct. After "Toy Story" on August 2, "Back to the Future 2" continued to carry the banner, raking in 210 million US dollars in box office in North America in 6 weeks , won the second place in the summer file.
The first place is "Toy Story", which won 300 million US dollars, and for the first time in the name of a cartoon, it ruled this year's summer vacation.
As the heroine, Sophie Marceau, in "Back to the Future 2", played the most important role in acting and appearance.
This French Rose, who has been nominated for two Oscars, has already become one of the most famous female stars in the United States, so her box office appeal is also very strong.
Just like Liang Chaowei, Zhou Runfa and Cheng Long's appeal in Asia, Sophie Marceau's box office appeal in Europe has become the number one in Europe.
Even the British support this French girl, because she represents another example of Europeans breaking into Hollywood and becoming famous at a young age.
However, the most important reason is that Sophie Marceau is beautiful.
Yes.
She is so pretty.
Even Ye Linqinwa, who feels that she will not lose to anyone in terms of appearance, will still lament that God has given her too many gifts when facing Sophie Marceau.
Therefore, it is reasonable for "Back to the Future 2" to have a box office of 170 million US dollars in Europe.
However, Asia and South America are a little weaker. When it was released for 6 weeks, it was only 80 million U.S. dollars when it was offline.
Now that it has been released for 6 weeks, there will be another two weeks. When it is released in mainstream theaters, the global box office of "Back to the Future 2" will exceed 500 million US dollars, which is also a breeze.
Two films released in August dominated the entire summer schedule, leaving other major Hollywood companies in the dust. This is also the norm for the North American branch of Kirin Group.
But in the past year, the biggest surprise of Kirin Group's North American branch was not the movie aspect.
The biggest surprise came from "Sports and Entertainment News".
As of August, this national comprehensive sports and entertainment newspaper, which has just been established for the first year, has been successfully launched in 50 major cities across the United States under the development regardless of cost.
The daily sales volume of 1.5 million newspapers is the third best in the United States, after the New York Times and the Washington Post.
To this end, the total funds spent by the "Sports and Entertainment News" have exceeded 600 million US dollars.
That's right.
You really read that right.
In just one year, "Sports and Entertainment News" has already burned a huge sum of 600 million US dollars.
That's why they stood out from the thousands of newspapers in the United States, jumped to the third place directly, and shocked the entire United States.
You know, the "New York Times" and "Washington Post" that are ahead of them are one of the oldest newspapers in the United States, and they are far superior to other newspapers in terms of history and various backgrounds.
A newspaper that has only been published for one year, although it is distributed nationwide, is so vigorous that it is really impressive.
After seeing this achievement, many newspapers said sourly that if they had such a boss, they would have already ranked first in the United States if they smashed it regardless of the cost.
In fact, what they said was actually pretty good.
"Sports and Entertainment News" has never been stingy in spending in all aspects.
They spent $300 million just to establish distribution channels across the United States.
In these 50 large cities, the original competition is already fierce enough, and a new newspaper is forced to enter, which will definitely trigger many reactions.
In order to settle these things, in order to create its own distribution network, 300 million US dollars was spent cleanly.
Although there were a lot of twists and turns and difficulties, but after spending so much money, it finally achieved the most basic effect, allowing the "Sports and Entertainment News" to be published unimpeded in these 50 cities .
Then there is the most important content of a newspaper.
If you want to have good content, then there is no need to be opportunistic.
"Sports and Entertainment News" has set up more than 100 news gathering points throughout North America, employing more than 500 reporters and cameramen, and more than 200 behind-the-scenes processing staff, including editors.
This will ensure that the "Sports and Entertainment News" can get the news in the first time, the fastest and the best, and typeset and print it for readers all over the United States.
These are not the most important, the most important thing is that "Sports and Entertainment News" gave the highest news bonus in the United States.
The so-called news bonus, as the name suggests, is the reward fee for giving various news.
This will not only motivate the company's own reporters to dig up all the news, but also stimulate many free paparazzi and even ordinary people.
Once they find explosive news about entertainment and sports in North America and have proof that it's true, they'll be rewarded handsomely.
Generally speaking, small newspapers, magazines, and TV stations are not highly reputable, but large newspapers, magazines, and TV stations are very reputable, and they can spend a lot of money to buy enough shocking news!
For example, in May of this year, the top pitcher of the baseball league, Martin Coster, went to a bar late at night and brought three women back to his vacation villa. published in the newspaper.
Martin Coster is a well-known Mr. Nice Man, a man who claims to value his family. He has maintained this personality for 13 years and has almost become a model for the American people.
When many people criticize the various bad habits and bad habits of rugby players, people can always find the example of Martin Coster to refute, saying, look, there are still good people here, and you can't knock everyone down with one shot.
Unexpectedly, he was photographed in such a scandalous photo, which is really surprising and disgusting.
Americans don't care whether celebrities are good people or not, but the prerequisite is that you don't deceive them, and don't use fake persona to deceive people, so that they will be angry.
This incident triggered a tearful apology from Martin Constant, and the sponsor demanded $2 million in compensation, which was a huge loss.
But in fact, another piece of news at the same time was even more eye-catching than the Martin Constant scandal.
This is why "Sports and Entertainment News" spent a full 500,000 US dollars to buy these news and photos from insiders.
A piece of information and a few photos are worth 500,000 US dollars! ?
After such news spread, the reputation of "Sports and Entertainment News" was greatly improved, and many famous freelance journalists and writers turned their attention to them.
These people in the United States are very practical. I write newspaper articles and take photos to disclose what I do, all for money, for my own life, and for my own fame.
Whoever can give me more money and more benefits, of course I will favor him and give him more manuscripts and photos.
It was because of the huge amount of attention, as well as the continuous appearance of news and manuscripts, that the "Sports and Entertainment News" suddenly developed by leaps and bounds, and the sales volume quickly exceeded 1 million, reaching 1.5 million copies.
Therefore, they spent the remaining 300 million US dollars on this aspect, leaving Tang Shuxuan speechless.
Yin Jun was very happy when he heard the news.
In this era when newspapers and magazines have been severely stereotyped, if you want to succeed in a short period of time, the model of "Sports and Entertainment News" is the most correct.
Even if you spend a little more money, you must first gain a firm foothold.
When the "Sports and Entertainment News" develops, the Qilin Group will have another heavy weapon to settle down!
If the "Sports and Entertainment News" can be built to the size of the "Washington Post" and "New York Times", it will really be a very powerful weapon with great influence. How much does it cost? Effects that money can't buy! !
