The beach not far from the residence.

Ryan pulled up the fishing rod, took a large grouper off the hook, put it in the bucket, put the bait on it, and threw it into the sea again.

"Another one?"

On Scarlett Johansson's pretty face, there was a hint of envy, "It seems that you are lucky today."

"It has nothing to do with luck, it's because your skills are too poor." Ryan looked sideways at Scarlett Johansson next to her. After an afternoon, her fish bucket was still empty.

In contrast, in Ryan's fish bucket, there are already three or four fish, large and small, which look very beautiful together.

Scarlett Johansson quickly pulled up her fishing rod, looked at the fishhook with no harvest on it, curled her lips, and threw the fishing rod aside, "I'm not suitable for fishing."

She looked at Ryan's fish bucket, and suddenly came up with an idea, "Ryan, how about I help you carry the fish bucket when I get back later!"

Hearing her words, Ryan glanced at her with a half-smile, "Getting something for nothing is not what a good girl should do."

"Fishing requires patience, as long as you calm down, there will always be something to gain."

Scarlett Johansson pouted, she didn't think she would gain anything.

Immediately stood up, walked towards Daniel Green not far away, staring at Daniel Green's fish bucket inadvertently, as if thinking of something else.

Regarding Scarlett Johansson's little move, Ryan just glanced at it, then shook his head and looked away, expressing a moment of silence for Daniel Green in his heart.

Poor Daniel Green, one afternoon's gain is about to become nothing.

"When I see Scarlett, I always think of when I was young." Cindy Crawford was lying under a big parasol with huge sunglasses on her face, looking at Scarlett- Johnson's back, there seems to be a hint of memory in his eyes.

"That's the other side of her that you haven't seen." Ryan couldn't help but get a headache when he thought of the quarrel between Scarlett Johansson and Natalie Portman.

Scarlett Johansson is not a good girl, and Natalie Portman is not a bully.

Cindy Crawford nodded thoughtfully. She knew better than Ryan what most underage girls were like.

After chatting for a while, she suddenly asked, "When will "The Sixth Sense" be released?"

"On the eve of the summer vacation? It's still July!"

It is now the beginning of March, and there are less than two months before the summer vacation. The release date of "The Sixth Sense" will be around the summer vacation without accident.

"Probably early April."

Ryan took a sip of a drink and said, "In the next day or two, Paramount and Orion Pictures will start the pre-film promotion plan."

"Cindy, you'll get busy sometime later."

Every summer, the competition is extremely fierce, so Paramount does not want to release "The Sixth Sense" in the highly competitive summer file.

So now April is just a good time.

From April to the first weekend of May, it is a deserted spring file, and few big-investment commercial films are released.

But there are occasional exceptions, such as this year's spring file is particularly lively.

A film "Liar Liar" released by Universal Pictures is expected to be released at the end of March. The director of the film is Tom Sadiak, and the starring role is the famous Kim Carrey.

At the beginning of April, "The Sixth Sense" was invested and released by Paramount and Orion Pictures. The investment of the film was 35 million US dollars, which can be regarded as a medium-scale commercial film.

Ryan spent 3 million US dollars to buy the script at the beginning, which caused some media's ideas before the promotion of the film started.

On April 11, there will be Sony Pictures' "The Plague of Python," starring cousin Jennifer Lopez, with a budget of $45 million.

It can be said that this year's Spring Festival stalls are not deserted at all.

"I'd rather be busy than be idle all day like I am now." There was a trace of expectation on Cindy Crawford's face, and she seemed a little nervous.

The failure of the last film made her almost leave Hollywood completely, and her career fell into a trough.

Once the box office of "The Sixth Sense" is not satisfactory, then she may really only have to choose to leave Hollywood. Apart from this, there is no other way to choose.

On the sea level, the sun gradually began to set, reflecting a piece of red sea water, Ryan and the others began to pack their things and prepare to leave.

Scarlett Johansson got her wish and carried a large fish bucket. It could be clearly seen that there were at least four or five sea fish in it.

It can be predicted that a war will 100% break out between her and Natalie Portman tonight.

So Ryan simply left her to eat, so as not to cause Helen to complain.

For fishing, Ryan is just a way to relax, and then he also needs to get busy.

The promotion and distribution of "The Sixth Sense" can rely on Paramount's channels, but another film "A Basket of Little Ghosts" by Knight-Shyamalan has to rely entirely on Orion Pictures' own promotion and distribution channels.

This film is also the first film officially released since Ryan bought Orion Films.

The rest of the films bought from major film festivals, even if they can be shown in cinemas, will only be screened in a sporadic dozen or so theaters in the final scale.

On the bright side, Orion Pictures isn't out of luck.

In the morning, Orion Films is still negotiating with Paramount and theater companies about the release scale of "The Sixth Sense".

In the afternoon, Orion Films began to discuss with the theater company alone about the release plan of "A Basket of Little Ghosts".

Regarding the behavior of Orion Pictures, some staff members of Paramount were quite dissatisfied, but they didn't say much in the end.

After all, this is just a normal business behavior.

In addition, Ryan has to pay attention to the preparations of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", and this time he also put forward a new cooperation request.

In principle, Ryan agreed to continue the cooperation with 20th Century Fox, on the premise that the method of cooperation should be changed, and both parties should share the investment in the film.

Orion Films is responsible for the promotion and distribution of the film in North America, and 20th Century Fox is responsible for the promotion and distribution of the film overseas.

This is not an unusual way of collaborating.

It's just that very few second-tier film companies propose this kind of cooperation, and most of them are cooperation among the seven major film companies.

Of course, at least for now, Ryan has the capital to come up with this kind of cooperation.

Looking at the entire Hollywood film company, none of them can ignore the income brought by the huge sales of "Terminator 3".

In terms of the North American box office alone, Orion Pictures has already received the first share of up to 66 million U.S. dollars.

According to the distribution agreement signed with the theater company, two weeks before the film's release, the theater company can only get 10% of the box office cut, so the North American box office share is the first to get the most.

It is expected that there will be more than 44 million US dollars in box office revenue.

(Including film distribution fees.)

This is not the end yet, all the North American copyrights of the film have been sold, and another 39 million US dollars can be reaped.

The overseas box office share will be lower, and 20th Century Fox will exclusively enjoy the overseas distribution of the film, but Orion Pictures can still reap more than 50 million US dollars.

In addition to the TV adaptation copyright, video tapes, discs and other peripheral income in some countries, overseas income can also earn more than 35 million US dollars.

In addition to the previous advertising revenue, peripheral product sharing, etc.~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even if the film investment cost, publicity budget, guild sharing, etc. need to be excluded, Orion Films can eventually share nearly 200 million US dollars income.

As for Twentieth Century Fox!

The income of Twentieth Century Fox is much higher than that of Orion Pictures.

So even though Twentieth Century Fox felt that Ryan's proposed cooperation method was a little difficult to accept, they still didn't say no.

In Hollywood, 20th Century Fox is not the only film company that has overseas distribution channels, such as Paramount, which has been eyeing it, and Sony Pictures, which is ambitious.

There are also Universal Pictures and Disney.
