Thank you, toilet placement﹫POSE, Zhang Tom, extravagance and other fellow Taoists for giving rewards. I wish all fellow Taoists a happy day and always happy! ! !

…

After all, Xiangjiang is just a small island with a population of more than 5 million. Its box office performance is more representative of the potential of a movie. If you want to make money, especially if you want to make a lot of money, you have to look at the overseas box office performance of the movie.

After a lot of Hong Kong films fought in Hong Kong, they turned to overseas markets one after another.

In this way, a new round of competition began:

"Happy Ghosts on Summer Vacation"

Overseas box office: 62 million Hong Kong dollars.

Total box office: 85 million Hong Kong dollars.

DreamWorks profit: 28 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Dragon Ninja"

Total box office: 48.5 million Hong Kong dollars.

Profit for DreamWorks: 11 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Chasing Girls"

Overseas box office: 43 million Hong Kong dollars.

Total box office: 62.7 million Hong Kong dollars.

Profit for DreamWorks: 17 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Bad List"

Overseas box office: 27 million Hong Kong dollars.

Total box office: 34.3 million Hong Kong dollars.

Profit for DreamWorks: HK$7.5 million.

In Central and South America and Europe, "Zombie Family" achieved an excellent box office score of 32 million US dollars.

Total: $150 million at the global box office for "The Dead"

What went to DreamWorks was: 39 million US dollars.

The filming cost of "Zombie Family" is: $9 million.

Publicity costs paid by DreamWorks: $300,000.

Zombies ended up making $29.7 million for DreamWorks.

"Interstellar blunt tire"

In the Taiwan bend area, "Interstellar Blunt Tires" achieved a good box office result of 58 million Taiwan dollars.

In the Nanyang region, "Interstellar Blunts" achieved a good box office score of 28 million US dollars.

In Japan, "Interstellar Blunt Tires" achieved a good box office result of 2.8 billion yen.

In South Korea, "Interstellar Blunt" achieved a good box office result of 720,000 viewers.

In North America, "Interstellar Blunts" achieved a good box office result of 32 million US dollars.

In Central and South America and Europe, "Interstellar" achieved a good box office score of 17 million US dollars.

TOTAL: The worldwide box office total of "Blunt Boys" is: $108 million.

The amount allocated to DreamWorks and Shaw Brothers is: 31 million US dollars.

The production cost of "Interstellar Blur" is: 12 million US dollars.

The publicity fee paid by DreamWorks and Shaw Brothers was: $500,000.

"Star Wars" earned DreamWorks and Shaw Brothers: $18.5 million.

After 21 additions to 5, "Interstellar" made a profit for DreamWorks: 9.25 million US dollars.

Shaw Brothers, which owns Xiangjiang and Nanyang cinema chains, earns a little more than DreamWorks. Shaw Brothers earned at least 12 million US dollars with "Interstellar Blunt".

Afterwards, Shao Yifu discussed with Xu Cun, and Shao bought all the copyrights of "Interstellar Blunt Tires" from Xu Cun for 10 million US dollars.

"Summer Lucky Star"

In the Taiwan bend area, "Summer Lucky Stars" achieved a box office of 46 million Taiwan dollars.

In the Nanyang region, "Summer Lucky Star" achieved a box office record of 14 million US dollars.

In Japan, "Summer Lucky Star" has achieved box office results of 1.6 billion yen.

In South Korea, "Summer Lucky Star" achieved a box office record of 410,000 viewers.

In North America, "Summer Lucky Star" has achieved a box office score of 5.5 million US dollars.

Due to the poor box office performance of "Summer Lucky Stars" in North America, "Summer Lucky Stars" missed the release in Central, South America and Europe.

Judging from the three films "Zombie Family", "Interstellar Blunt", and "Summer Lucky Star", Golden Harvest is undoubtedly a disastrous failure.

but--

The real situation is that Golden Harvest not only did not lose, but judging from the current situation, Golden Harvest is still the biggest winner among the three.

Why do you say that?

Because, Golden Harvest also has a Hollywood blockbuster starring Jackie Chan and Xu Guanwen-"Cannonball Run".

"Cannonball Run" made $72 million in North America alone and ranked sixth on the North American box office list.

Plus the box office in Central and South America, Europe, and Asia.

At this stage, "Cannonball Run" absolutely beats "Zombie Family" and "Interstellar Blunt Tires" to become the most violent movie in Hong Kong.

In 1981, the three major film companies in Xiangjiang all chose to go west.

Although the methods used by the three major film companies are different, they have all achieved good results.

For the little Xiangjiang, 1981 is definitely a year that can be recorded in history.

This year, Shao Yifu, Zou Wenhuai, and Xu Cun have become existences that other filmmakers have to look up to because of their contributions to Xiangjiang's film industry, and they have become the pride of many Jiangxiang people.

...

Mid October.

"The Love between Humans and Ghosts" is finished.

but--

The finalization does not mean that the production of "The Love of Ghosts" is finished-because there is still a huge post-production of "The Love of Ghosts" that has not been completed.

Xu Cun has extremely high requirements for the special effects in "The Love of Ghosts" - for this reason, Xu Cun even made preparations for the production of "The Love of Ghosts" after "Home Alone".

Xu Cun stared at the post-production of "The Love of Ghosts" and auditioned for the little protagonist in "Home Alone".

To be honest, it is not easy to find a young boy with spirituality like Kevin McAllister—Xu Cun has interviewed more than seven hundred children, but he has not been able to find a boy who satisfies him. .

However, Xu Cun did not have a white sea selection—at least, he found other young actors in "Home Alone" among the more than 700 children.

One day, when Xu Cun and Bai Anni went out to relax, they were surprised to see a ghostly and beautiful nine-year-old white boy.

After that, the problem that had troubled Xu Cun for several months was completely solved.

end of october.

"Home Alone" officially launched.

Except for the change of the protagonist from Kevin McAllister to a boy named Chris Brown and the change of other actors, most of the other actors in "Home Alone" have not changed.

In other words, Xu Cun's "Home Alone" is not much different from the original version.

Xu Cun is preparing to release "Home Alone" this Christmas. In other words, Xu Cun had to complete the production of "Home Alone" in less than two months.

Time is tight and tasks are heavy!

Therefore, Xu Cun only gave Chris Brown two days to familiarize himself with the script, and "Home Alone" started!

PS: I hope that fellow Taoists will not feel that these two chapters are watery, these movies cannot be avoided - I have to explain that Da Fei has tried to compress the word count of them as much as possible. In this situation, if you still feel the water, then Da Fei can only say, you... just jump and watch...
