The next day.
That is, the day after the 73rd Oscars was over, the headlines of the national entertainment news media, of course, were the big winners of this year's Oscars.
The three films "Gladiator", "Drug Network" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" accounted for 13 Oscar statuettes.
Almost all the traffic is attracted!
No, the theater team made a statement immediately.
After all, this is all money!
The "Gladiator" movie was released in the United States on May 5, 2000. After 8 months, it was already off the theaters. At the same time, the DVD of "Gladiator" was actually released in November 2000.
But... now?
With the title of Best Picture at the 73rd Oscars, it was once again promoted to the theaters, and in one fell swoop it won 670 theaters for screenings.
As the producer of the film, DreamWorks Pictures: "Won the 73rd Oscar for Best Picture, not only won the honor, but also brought huge economic benefits. "Gladiator" North American box office increased by tens of millions of dollars, It was pretty easy."
Universal Pictures as the distributor of the movie: "The North American box office, the box office of overseas countries and regions, including offline DVD and video tape sales, will surely usher in a wave of growth. This is the economic value brought by Oscars!"
The movie "Gladiator" is like this, and the movie "Drug Network" is not too swaying!
On December 27, 2000, the "Drug Network" film officially landed in major theaters across the United States. Up to now, it has received a total of US$112 million in the North American box office. There are less than 220 theaters in North America.
But what about the day after the Oscars ceremony?
720 movie theaters!
That's right, the number of theaters has soared by 500!
Many companies in the same industry are dying of jealousy.
"Jealous, but I can't help it!"
"Who said no? The "Drug Network" film won the 73rd Oscar for Best Director, Best Supporting Actor, Best Film Editor, and Best Adapted Screenplay, a total of 4 awards."
"The theaters reacted fast enough and adjusted the film arrangement in the first place, tusk tusk~"
Envy and jealousy are worthless in front of the traffic that Oscar brings!
When facing the media interview, AMC Entertainment, one of the three major theaters in the United States, said: "It is foreseeable that the North American box office of "Drug Network" will increase by 800 US dollars. There is no problem at all. "
box office?
The increase in the box office is certain.
Other related interests of the film will also grow a lot.
The huge economic benefits brought by the Oscar awards are the core reason why Oscars are always sought after by many film companies!
The number of films "Gladiator" and "Drug Network" has surged in theaters, and the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" movie, which is also the big winner of this year's Oscar, is not to be outdone.
As of the eve of the Oscars, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" had a box office of $93 million in North America, making it the most popular "foreign language film" in American film history.
Kevin Fitch's first timeline: "The first foreign language film in American film history with a box office of over 100 million is about to be born. It is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"!"
The traffic that comes with the Oscars, the reports of various media, and the promotion of Wald Films, which is the producer and distributor, make the film's box office growth inevitable.
[The first foreign language film in American film history with a box office of over 100 million! 】
With this gimmick alone, it is enough to attract a large number of old and American audiences into the cinema.
at the same time.
"California Entertainment" and "Los Angeles Entertainment", two media newspapers that are influential in the entertainment field across the United States, and supported by financial sponsorship provided by Wald Pictures, spare no effort and almost flattery Opened a large-scale report.
The focus of the report is Zhu Ke himself and the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
Oscar Best Picture: "Gladiator";
Oscar-level best director's film: "Drug Network";
These two movies have only been taken in one stroke!
"The owner of "California Entertainment" Ryder Stanley and the editor-in-chief of "Los Angeles Entertainment" Andre, on the red carpet yesterday, was shameless enough, but now it seems that I still seriously underestimate their downline. what!"
"Global Times" asked Miyang Andech, the editor-in-chief of the section, and muttered to himself very contemptuously.
The media colleagues are actually very envious.
Let the media's morals go aside!
"What are the morals and offline? Don't forget, we are just entertainment media." Andre, the editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Entertainment News, was complacent.
.......
One week later.
The movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which won 4 Oscars, finally broke the $100 million mark at the North American box office at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
The first foreign language film in American film history with a box office of over 100 million was born.
"Boss, thanks to the gimmick of the Oscars, the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" movie has not only achieved good results in the North American market, but also the box office in overseas markets such as Europe, Asia, Australia, etc., has also seen significant reverse growth in the near future."
"According to our forecast, when "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" goes offline, the global box office will be no less than 200 million U.S. dollars.
"The production cost of 15 million U.S. dollars, the film announcement cost of 17 million U.S. dollars, the operating cost of Oscar awards of 11 million U.S. dollars."
"The total cost does not exceed 50 million U.S. dollars, and the exchange rate is less than 200 million U.S. dollars at the global box office."
"I have to say that the benefits of this movie are far beyond our imagination!"
As the president of Wald Pictures, Kevin Fitch was full of joy while reporting to Zhuke.
No way, the results are brilliant!
Bang bang bang~
Zhu Ke applauded and exclaimed: "Good job. The "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" brought by Director Ang Lee made us money, so we can't treat him badly. At least in terms of director's remuneration and movie box office share, we can Can't be in arrears."
"Don't worry, in terms of economic issues, our Wald Pictures' credibility is well-known." Kevin Fitch said.
Speaking of this topic, Zhu Ke couldn't help thinking of Shay, the boss of New Line Pictures.
Shay, that was notoriously stubborn.
With the completion of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, Xin Xian Films, as the producer, had a lot of trouble with director Peter Jackson. Just a few years of court proceedings has given Xin Xian Films its reputation. Stinks the street.
On the one hand, Zhu Ke regards money as fate, but on the other hand he is very particular about credibility and integrity.
In the next time~
Zhu Ke and Kevin Fitch also talked about TV movies and the agency appointments of 12 to 20-year-old young actors.
"Boss, the youth performing arts department under Wald Pictures, I have established and completed the first phase of recruitment and training in California and other places."
"It is estimated that in 3 to 5 days, the first period of enrollment will be completed."
"The next 3 months~6 months~www.wuxiaspot.com~ will carry out systematic training for these young actors, mainly in acting. At the same time, we will also package them into one young man after another. Group idol."
"The TV movie "High School Musical" is already ready to go."
"The movie "Dancing Out of My Life", as long as they perform well, they may also appear in it!"
Kevin Fitch talked eloquently, and projects blurted out of his mouth.
"Tsk tut~"
Zhu Ke couldn't help but utterly said: "Packed as a youth idol? Disney earns little money from minors every year because of this."
Zhuke is still very jealous of Disney's profitability in this area.
"I don't know if there are any future little demons I am familiar with in the list of recruiting young actors in the first period?" Zhu Ke thought.
"" The second update is sent.
