You don't understand the happiness of the director

Han Sanping pricked up his ears, and since he knew a little English, he could barely hear the conversation clearly.

Good guy, The Dragon Headed Up has topped the box office in North America again. Is this the last craziness before its decline?

Listening to those numbers, Han Sanping's heart beat faster.

In 2010, The Dragon Head Raised a total of US$2.386 billion in box office in North America. Without any doubt, it once again crushed the so-called Big Six. It exceeded the total box office of The Dragon Head Head in 2009 and occupied more than one-fifth of North America's share. !

Han Sanping: It also exceeds the total annual box office in the mainland!

Of course, the reason for such good results is also because several of Summit Entertainment's projects, such as "Red Flame Battlefield" and "Scandal Project", have performed reasonably well. In the future, Summit Entertainment can also finance the production of movies, but the distribution will be handed over to Long Tiantou. Head-up also released small dark horses such as "The Expendables".

Because of its high-quality content, Longtou has now become the most popular company among young audiences in North America.

This result leaves the second place Paramount far behind with 1.765 billion. As the distribution contracts between DreamWorks, Marvel and Paramount are about to expire, there will be no "Iron Man" or "Shrek" in the future. Waiting for the movie, Paramount may not have an easy time.

Warner's total box office is 1.648 billion, ranking third. This year's main focus is "Harry Potter". This sentimental meal can be eaten again next year, but it is a pity that their leading actors are not only young but also very healthy, and they don't feel very easy to kill. It seems that it will be difficult for next year's "Finale Part 2" to surpass "Twilight 5".

The fourth place is Disney, with 1.327 billion. The third-largest North American box office "Toy Story 3" and the fourth-largest "Alice in Wonderland" are both owned by his family. The acquisition of Pixar was indeed the right decision. I feel that the Toy Story series can still be Eat it a few more times, and the revenue from the derivatives is much higher than the box office.

It’s just that this year they encountered a big competitor, Illumination Entertainment, which is owned by Long Toutou. Minions are also selling like crazy. It seems that next year they can only release "Cars 2". Although this series has average box office, the toy sales Very fierce.

The fifth place is Sony Columbia, with 1.27 billion. Without Spider-Man, Sony is a piece of junk. This year's best-grossing movie turned out to be Cheng Long's "Kung Fu Dream". In North America, it barely exceeded 100 million, and it didn't even make the top ten.

But even more useless than Sony is 20th Century Fox, which ranked sixth.

Relying on "Avatar", the company received a total of more than 700 million last year and this year, almost half from last year and half from this year. But even so, Fox's total revenue this year is still only 1.08 billion, the highest-grossing movie "The Chronicles of Narnia 3", which just exceeded 100 million and was a huge hit at the box office, is not even ranked in the top 30 of the year. I don't know if Ms. Wendy Deng is in a hurry to get angry.

Fox is ruined, but Universal still can't compare, so Universal is also rubbish to a certain extent. Illumination Entertainment was snatched away by Dragon Head. Universal's highest-grossing "True Grit" barely ranked 20th in the year, but the company's total box office Only 890 million.

Now Long Toutou is as famous as the Big Six. 90% of the box office in North America is owned by these seven companies. Lionsgate's top-grossing movie can't even crack the top 60. Dorothy even boasts that she wants to put it in the top 60. Lionsgate, which was once the closest to the Big Six, was annexed!

Wang Quan cooled her down, "Don't be so anxious. If the company has money, it can buy a more naive company."

Dorothy: "What about?"

Wang Quan glanced at Han Sanping, who was eavesdropping openly, "Haha, let's talk about this after I get back."

"Are you going back to Oscar?" Dorothy asked.

She definitely hopes that Wang Quan can return. Because of the company's better performance this year, Long Toutou's stock price has risen a bit. If Wang Quan can participate in the Oscars and send out a signal that he may return to Hollywood to film at any time, then the company's stock price will still be high. It will rise again, and then she plans to sell some of it and buy an airplane, and then buy it back at a low price next year when the price drops.

She believes that there is a high probability that it will drop next year. This year has been so successful. The few films next year will be released, tsk tsk.

Wang Quan said, "I will definitely go back. I heard that Oscar is planning to hold a session to commemorate the Little Werewolf. If it happens, our entire crew will attend."

Even if it doesn't, King Power will most likely be nominated for Best Original Song.

Because there was an old man next to him, Wang Quan did not chat with Tao Zi and quickly hung up the phone.

Han Sanping smiled and said, "Congratulations, Director Wang, Long Toutou achieved such good results last year thanks to your two "Twilight" films."

Wang Quan hurriedly said a few words of humility.

Then Han Sanping asked, "What is the market value of "The Dragon Heads Up" now?"

Wang Quan took a look at it a few days ago. The difference is pretty good, "It should be 33 billion dollars."

Han Sanping was suddenly shocked, "Ah, it has increased so much! I remember it was less than 20 billion before, right?"

Wang Quan nodded, "In addition to Twilight 5 winning the global box office title and Twilight 4 winning the global box office title, another important reason is that the U.S. stock market has gradually recovered from the subprime mortgage crisis, so the market has also As the market value of the company increases, so does the company’s market value.”

For example, Netflix's market value has exceeded 10 billion, and it was only 3 billion when it was acquired.

Han Sanping asked again, "Then what is this market value in Hollywood?"

Wang Quan thought for a while, "Well, it's probably half of Disney."

In fact, it’s less than half. Disney’s current market value is more than 70 billion.

However, Han Sanping was shocked to have nearly half of the behemoth Disney. Disney has been established for decades, and there are many physical industries. There is also a huge copyright library accumulated over decades, and various holdings of large and small subsidiaries. company.

And Dragon Head has only been established for a few years, but it is half as big as Disneyland. It’s so scary, so scary!

Han Sanping suddenly thought of another question. The market value of Long Toutou is so high now. How much is Wang Quan's net worth?

Of course, he just thought about this question and did not ask it out loud, which would be somewhat rude, but anyway, he would be able to see it from Forbes, Hurun and other rich rankings in a while.

Maoyan also has an account on Weibo. It not only released a lot of its own data about the mainland box office last year, but also forwarded the box office data in North America, including the good news that Long Toutou topped the box office of North American film companies.

There is also the shocking news that King Power won the global box office title and second place in the same year for the first time in history!

Although some of last year's movies are still in theaters, this is an irreversible fact. The closest "Toy Story 3" only cost 1.06 billion, while "Harry Potter Finale Part 1" can't exceed 10 100 million.

Maoyan: "...and this achievement is not only unprecedented, but it may also be unprecedented!"

This news about royal power was forwarded and commented by many people in the industry, and then it accidentally fell into Wu Yusen's eyes.

He regretted why he opened Weibo today and received this stimulation for nothing.

He has also won the annual global box office crown. He was once the only Chinese. His impressive achievements allowed him to leave his name on the Avenue of Stars. Now he is no longer the only one, and all his box office records have been broken by Wang Quan. .

Oh, and one more thing, one movie brought down a giant Hollywood company. This record is definitely beyond the reach of the king.

But I don’t bully him either. Not to mention the hero’s bravery, his achievements in Hollywood will be over for the time being!

Next, my focus will be on Chinese-language films. Wang Quan has also returned to Chinese-language films, so let’s see whose Chinese-language films are more popular.

After experiencing a small trial in "Red Cliff", he will continue to work on large-scale productions and give full play to his ability to shoot blockbusters.

When he returned to Wanwan, Director Wu participated in a program of Cai Kangyong and heard the story of his family. Cai's ancestors were once shipping tycoons, but their family fortunes fell due to a maritime accident. That accident was known as Huaxia Titanic's crash event.

Now Wu Yusen has decided to bring this theme to the screen, and both Galloping Pony and Wanda are willing to fund it.

Of course, Yusen Wu wants their funds. After all, this is a large-scale production that requires at least 400 million, and even one family cannot afford it.

Humph, just wait, I’m going crazy as a teenager, but I, Wu, can still fight!

Wang Quan didn't know that he had stimulated Director Wu's fighting spirit. If Director Wu could really learn from his shame and be courageous, and produce more masterpieces like "A Better Tomorrow" with both box office and word-of-mouth success, he would still be happy to see the results.

After all, he is also a movie lover. He has basically watched all the best-selling Chinese films in the next 15 years. He really hopes that his pair of butterfly wings can stimulate more directors to produce works that do not exist in the film and television library.

For example, Ning Hao's "Crazy Nian Beast", which you can't watch until he completes the production, doesn't it give you a sense of anticipation? There is also "Qian Xuesen" that director Zhang Yimou promised.

In order to encourage more directors to create, Wang Quan carefully filled out his Directors Association Award Form.

Now that the preliminary results have come out, more than 100 members of the Guidance Association need to select the final winner.

Huang Jianxin, Yu Feihong, Chen Zhengdao, Yang Qing, Li Weiran and others in the company are all members of the Directors Association, but Wang Quan did not interfere with who they voted for, or even mentioned it.

Although he recognized the quality of "Human Fireworks", last year's Chinese films, "Let the Bullets Fly", "Tangshan Earthquake" and "Rizhao Chongqing" are also excellent in their own way.

Wang Quan solemnly cast his vote, hoping that this award will be fair and convincing, until it replaces the golden rooster in the hearts of movie fans.

Although Golden Rooster has a long history and has enough endorsement units, if it continues to mess around like this, it will be replaced sooner or later.

It would be great if the Directors Association Award could give the Golden Rooster some awareness of the crisis and initiate reforms and changes from within.

"Oh ho, you didn't vote for Sissi, if she knew this..."

Yang Mi suddenly appeared behind Wang Quan and began to threaten him with words.

Wang Quan chuckled: "Go ahead, Sissy won't be angry with me because of such a trivial matter."

Yang Mi habitually sat in Wang Quan's arms, holding Wang Quan's hand and letting him run around, "So do you really think that Sissi is not the best acting among the candidates?"

Wang Quan shook his head: "You can't say that. The acting styles of several candidates are different, and I like them all. I don't vote for Sissi because I hope she can be more low-key. She has already won two heavyweight awards ( Venice, Hundreds of Flowers), a tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind, don't you think this is different?"

"Understood, I understand so well!" Yang Mi held Wang Quan's face, "Do you know how popular Shishi is now?"

"Um?"

Yang Mi: "Now she and Tang Ren have agreed not to renew the contract, but the contract has not yet arrived, and she has not yet come out to open a studio alone, so no one is running her now, but "Bu Bu Jing Xin" After the broadcast, my dear, my Weibo account has gained 1 million followers! Now her Weibo post has more likes and retweets than mine. I heard that she has been approached by more than a dozen endorsements, and the five major women’s magazines have also reserved cover positions for her. There is also her fan group Little Lions. It used to be just a few groups, but now there are hundreds of thousands of people, all of them are diehard fans, and they are particularly good at fighting..."

Mimi talked non-stop for half an hour, allowing Wang Quan, who didn't use the Internet much, to intuitively understand how popular Liu Shishi is now. To put it simply, he is a "popular fried chicken".

"Bu Bu Jing Xin" has become a super hit, with a lot of topics online and offline. The male protagonists Yu Bo and Luo Jin have finally become popular, and the male supporting actors have also become popular, but they can't compete with Liu Shishi. Big heroine comparison.

People used to call her the "little Liu Yifei", but now they no longer say that, but they think she is expected to catch up with Xian Mi and become another super popular 85 little actress!

Another reason for saying this is that Liu Shishi starred in the second female lead in "Ghost Blowing the Lamp".

The second female lead in the King Power movie is also a resource that is elusive for popular actresses.

But after Mimi said so much, Wang Quan blinked, "So?"

"You don't want Sissi to win the award, just like I worry about Shishi being too popular. I'm afraid that she's young and won't be able to control it!"

Wang Quan sighed: "If I don't say that I have to make friends like you, Mimi, not only do I give her resources to film movies to make her popular, but I also worry about the negative impact of her being too popular. Really, Shishi will cry to death if he finds out." "

Yang Mi couldn't hear the ridicule in it at all and nodded, "That's it, I'm a very nice person!"

A few days later, Yang Mi came over and said, "No, Tangtang is going to be popular too!"

"what is wrong?"

"Didn't you hear that the song "Love Offering" is everywhere in the outside world now?"

Wang Quan shook his head. He had not been out of the company during this time, "But you sang this song, so you should be the one who became popular."

Yang Mi, "You are so stupid. If the TV series is not popular, how can the theme song be so popular? Good guy, the ratings of "Palace" are not much worse than "Bu Bu Jing Xin". It has only been a few days. Sugar Tang’s Weibo has gained 200,000 followers!”

Wang Quan smiled and saw that Mi Mi was really anxious this time. "Bu Bu Jing Xin" was a big hit. At least this drama was a masterpiece. Master Liu would set up a studio in the future and Yang Mi would also be a shareholder.

But as for Tangtang, "Palace" has nothing to do with Mishi. She is also owned by Wang Jingcheng, and it has nothing to do with herself. Her super hit song "Love Offering" is purely a wedding dress for others!

What's more, Tangtang's popularity is now soaring, almost rivaling that of Liu Liu and Yang, which makes Yang Mi very depressed. It was only her brother Quan who became like this. How could the two of them be so popular without the help of brother Quan?

Wang Quan mentioned a possibility: "Could it be because their best friend is you."

"Um?"

Wang Quan: "Think about it, you invested in "Bu Bu Jing Xin", and you didn't want to film "Palace" at that time and gave it to Tang Yan, so it's not about how good they are, it's just that they are lucky to have you like Yang Mi. My bestie, you have such a good bestie physique!"

"Ah, I, am I like this?" Yang Mi was a little dizzy.

Wang Quan nodded, "Definitely!"

Yang Mi was very happy to be affirmed by Wang Quan. Forget it, they would be popular if they became popular. Anyway, they would definitely not be as popular as herself.

She was indifferent at first, then worried.

In a few months, Yaya's drama "Beijing Love Story" will be aired. It is also a drama produced by my company, and the heroine is Yaya, who is also designated by me. Could it be possible that she would become popular too? ?

In Yang Mi's mixed emotions of anticipation and worry, Liu Yifei came back from the Northeast. Wang Quan thought she would have a big gold chain and a small watch, and she would be wearing a mink.

Fortunately, Sissi is still the same Sissi. Although her clothing quality is poor, it is not that bad. Although her accent was a little off at first, she soon corrected herself.

The two of them only stayed at home for one night, and then they were going to Sanya, their spiritual hometown of Northeastern people~
