Light Media.
"Congratulations to Director Su! It's really amazing! We didn't expect that this time it could surpass the box office of Titanic! This is almost everyone's surprise."
Chairman Guangguang held Su Yi's hand with shock in his eyes.
When Dragon Kingdom had a box office of 3.1 billion, he expected it. Although it was shocking, it was also a matter of course.
But this time the box office is number one in the world!
"The movie's box office is really great. I didn't expect it to be the first movie shot with 3D cameras from beginning to end. And that's because many 3D cinemas have been built around the world in the past few years, and the ticket prices are very high. Reason."
Su Yi was not modest. After learning the news, he also carefully analyzed the reasons why the box office was so high.
First of all, the plot is awesome, the actors' acting skills are online, and it is also a classic IP, especially in the North American market. It has directly detonated the North American market. Dragon Kingdom's efforts are far inferior. After all, this is the childhood of many people. .
When the classic clown character appeared on the screen, the subsequent success exceeded many people's guesses.
The second is that the special effects are also very sincere. In Su Yi's own opinion, they have even surpassed "Avatar" in his world.
US$300 million in this era is still valuable.
Even if it is burned with fire, it will take a long time.
So there is definitely nothing to say about the special effects, although there was some suppression of the film's promotion in North America and the West.
But the previous negative comments from those directors even had the opposite effect! Instead, it vigorously promoted the film.
Especially those fans, they firmly resisted it before watching it, so the box office on the first day was not very good.
But fans after watching it: It smells so good!
Especially Su Yi had a large number of ‘black fans’ before.
They didn’t care that the previous movie was about racial discrimination.
Many black people have a simple idea, because previous movies triggered zero-dollar purchases, so this makes them very excited.
I am even looking forward to this movie very much, but anyone who can watch the movie has noticed it.
Half of the gangsters inside were black and the other half were 'probably' Moxican.
Whether it was an innuendo or something else, not only did it not make people unhappy, it actually attracted many imitators.
The chaotic Gotham City even makes many people think it is a ‘paradise’.
Especially these restless people.
No matter what the purpose is, it can increase the total number of box office, and it also attracts many people to do second or third visit.
It can be regarded as a cut-out of Cameron's "Avatar"!
This was shot in keeping with the times, so it is an exaggeration, but if you think about it carefully, with such a box office, it will not become an 'unsolved mystery'.
"2.23 billion U.S. dollars! Nearly 19 billion yuan! I almost want to curse. Director Su Yi, one of your movies has exceeded our total market value!"
Light The chairman of the media sighed. When he first heard the news, he was still a little shaken.
Because it’s incredible.
In 2024, Enlight Media's market value will be more than 20 billion.
Now it is only more than 10 billion.
So this is no exaggeration. One movie exceeds the market value of most domestic companies.
“You are exaggerating, and this is the box office of the world. Although this is a Sino-US joint venture, the character copyright and film copyright belong to Warner Brothers. China Film only has the right to share dividends, and the film belongs to The country is still the Star Flag Country. It’s just that I am the director.”
Su Yi felt it was a pity, which was why he didn’t pay much attention to it at first. After all, this is a Star Flag Country movie, even if it is the first. , and it is not counted as the achievement of Dragon Kingdom.
The key is, if China Film Group knew from the beginning that it could be No. 1 at the box office, he would invest an estimated US$300 million and become the largest shareholder!
Anyway, it’s a guaranteed profit and a good reputation.
"Yes. It's a pity. But it's already very profitable - Director Su Yi, in a while, "Nezha: The Devil Boy Arrives" will be released, and then it will still have to be named. "
Chairman Guangguang said cautiously.
Although Su Yi agreed to them before, now Su Yi is very famous.
Even people outside the industry know that no matter what kind of garbage movie, with Su Yi in the name, it will have a box office of one billion!
However, reputation is not unlimited. After all, movie tickets are also very expensive.
So anyone who has some sense will cherish his feathers.
Like Cameron, he is a classic as soon as he makes a movie, and he often shoots a movie for several years, slowly polishing it.
Spielberg has some classics and some flops at the box office, but overall it's still very good.
Only Chen Kaige in China has repeatedly used his fame to deceive the domestic audience.
A Palme d'Or at that time indeed brought great hope to the domestic film industry.
Everyone thought this was the rise of the literary and art industry!
It has even caused many domestic directors to specialize in making literary films, and many directors and screenwriters have been affected.
And some people even say that no one can shake this movie in terms of literature and art.
Just like Su Yi now, he simply responds to a hundred calls.
Su Yi suggested making a movie about superheroes. China Film, Shanghai Film, West Film, and Bayi Film Studio all fully supported it, as did private enterprises, including Enlight, Tang Dynasty, and even Huayi Brothers. .
With such a great reputation, people will cherish their feathers.
Chen Kaige can be regarded as a different kind of person if he is pulled out one by one, because he may have reached the end of his talent.
But Su Yi is different. Now this rising star is emitting a dazzling light like the sun.
"I am a screenwriter in my name, and the best director is one of yours. I also hope that there will be more famous and talented directors in Longguo. Animated movies are a key step in promoting live-action movies, and they must be done well. Before, we were influenced by foreign movies. It’s too big. Many Chinese people prefer to watch English movies. If they want to change, it’s not to change the audience’s preferences, but to change the quality of our movies.”
Chairman Guangguang nodded after hearing this, feeling a little moved in his heart. He has passed the age where his blood boils just by listening to something.
But Su Yi's sincerity and ambition still moved him.
"Although this animated movie is not fully 3D, the effect is still good. I have already watched the trial version at the General Administration."
Su Yi sat on the sofa and said with a smile .
"That's great. It's a pleasure to work with Director Su. From review to production, you helped a lot. 10% of the box office this time will be given to you."
Chairman of Guangguang Said sincerely.
The script was basically decided by Su Yi, and the same was true for Kung Fu Panda half a year later.
During the filming, the technical staff for the guidance and post-production were all found in Hollywood. It is only Su Yi who has such a reputation - even though they are all related to interests.
Previously, the technical support of Changjin Lake, Earthshaking, and animated films, as well as the decision on Sharon Stone, made other companies feel that Warner Bros. was a little too licking Su Yi.
It’s even out of touch with the ‘demeanor’ of a Hollywood studio.
But this time, almost all doubts disappeared.
The box office of 2.23 billion US dollars was divided into more than half, leaving 1 billion US dollars.
China Film Group accounts for one-third, leaving US$700 million!
Invest 200 million, get back 700 million, and make a net profit of 500 million US dollars!
In the film industry, this is a miracle!
And it broke the miracle jointly created by Paramount and Fox, "Titanic" ranked first in the world!
"Actually, this is not important to me. The quality of the animated film is the most important."
Su Yi did not refuse. At this time, he felt unsure about rejecting the other party.
Also, the script and technology are almost all my own. Although the 10% share is slightly more, considering Su Yi's reputation, giving him 15% is not too much.
Seeing that Su Yi did not refuse, the chairman of Enlight Media breathed a sigh of relief.
“Buzz!”
The phone was still vibrating. Su Yi took a look and felt a little helpless.
The phone calls have been overwhelming these days.
"Director Su, go get busy! Recently I heard that another movie is being prepared"
The chairman of Enlight Media didn't dare to stay. Su Yi was a 'hot cake' wherever he went. The reason why he stayed here for such a long time was not because of his face, but because of domestic animation.
Su Yi knows that animated movies are very important. The first step needs to be relying on animated movies, and in the future, the box office of animated movies will be even more amazing!
"Then I'll leave first. It's probably about the press conference. Don't worry, it will be fine. Even if the box office is not that exaggerated, you will never lose money."
Su Yi gave the other party a reassurance.
····
China Film Group.
China Film Group is very busy today.
After investing in the world’s number one box office movie, Warner has held a media conference.
With Heath Ledger, it was natural to return with a full load, but Su Yi did not come to the scene.
For this press conference, China Film Group has also prepared in advance. This time, not only domestic media are coming.
Reporters from Xiangjiang, Haidao, Bangzi Country, Xiaori, and Star Flag Country have all arrived at Long Country in advance, waiting for today's press conference.
Let’s talk about the filming of The Dark Knight and promote the new movie.
This is a prosperous time for the film industry, and even many actors who participated in "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" will come!
In fact, the person in charge of Enlight Media also wanted to come, but the publicity was not enough. After all, the founding of the nation was the theme this time.
Although his box office is only in the Longguo market, this time Su Yi is invited to be the director. Maybe a miracle will happen in overseas markets!
The words 17.8 billion are written on the huge customized cake. This number represents the final box office!
Many photographers immediately took pictures of the cake, which looked very dazzling.
The huge red carpet outside has been laid out, and reporters on both sides are ready.
The reason why I chose to work with China Film this time is because of China Film’s investment, and when it comes to external affairs, China Film is responsible for all business.
The purpose of today is to celebrate Su Yi, and also to promote the new movie. Many actors have been appointed for the founding of the People's Republic of China, and almost all of them are here.
The red carpet this time has a much higher gold content.
Some people suggested that Han Sanping could let foreign stars sign up. After all, many people are very interested.
But under Han Sanping’s suggestion, we only invited the Batman crew.
Basically everyone is here, including Rachel, Batman, Two-Face, the Joker and other characters from the show.
With the emergence of Su Yi, Long Guo's status in the film industry seems to have increased.
Of course, what capital values is profit.
The people on the Batman crew are no exception. When Su Yi started filming, some people were quite critical. Some DC writers even criticized Su Yi.
But in the blink of an eye, the movie became the number one box office in the world!
Christian Bale has directly become the most valuable Batman and the most valuable superhero!
The entire cast of actors was sublimated.
But this time they were very humble and came to the scene early.
Before Su Yi rushed over, he was also ‘held down’ by the China Film staff and put on makeup.
This time it was all arranged by China Film Group, even the female companions on the red carpet.
It also gave Han Sanping a headache before, and even hired a ‘director’ to plan this kind of event.
Su Yi has always been a director, and has only starred in one movie.
This is my second time becoming an ‘actor’.
The director this time is also Han Sanping’s classmate, Huang Jianxin.
This famous director also has many works. Although he is not as famous as Feng Xiaogang and others, he is still very powerful.
He also has a headache. Su Yi's female companion is very important.
It can't be Rachel.
Liu Shishi? Liu Yifei?
These two people, together with Yang Mi, all played a role in the founding of the country.
Although they are all small roles, for example Liu Shishi is the announcer, and Liu Yifei and Yang Mi are female soldiers in the army.
But in this masterpiece, except for a few leading actors, most of them are guest stars.
Including international superstar Cheng Long, there are only a few lines and no more scenes.
Even in a flash!
At first, many people expected the King of Kung Fu and the two superstars to have a showdown. Unexpectedly, with the establishment of the Jianguo Daye project, the two appeared in the same movie again.
Huang Jianxin was worried about losing his hair and didn’t know how to arrange Su Yi’s female companion.
He also laughed at himself: If director Su Yi's relationship is determined by his own hands, there will be many people blessing Su Yi, and he will definitely be scolded!
Because attending the red carpet together, in the eyes of industry insiders, it must be very normal.
But in the eyes of the people who eat melons, it seems as if it has been officially announced.
So Huang Jianxin was under great pressure, and Han Sanping was surprised, even helpless.
Because many directors dare not take even this ‘small’ job.
Finally, Huang Jianxin looked through Su Yi's blog. This director, who is about the same age as Han Sanping, even learned to "surf the Internet" now, and found the few photos of actresses that Su Yi had posted.
In fact, it was also for tourism promotion needs that Su Yi sent Liu Shishi's photo.
His blog is not a private 'territory' at the beginning. It is a blog where he shares photos of his life. It is even a place that represents some trends!
Huang Jianxin felt like he had found a treasure. After asking the people who knew him, he found out about their relationship and directly settled on Liu Shishi.
When Liu Shishi heard that he was walking on the red carpet with Su Yi, he was surprised, but even more happy.
This time I dressed up and put on makeup.
However, Huang Jianxin is indeed a well-known director. Why should he be given such a difficult problem?
Finally Liu Yifei was also invited.
It’s hard to pick out such a combination, right?
Su Yi was a little surprised when he saw the two of them.
However, many stars have passed before, and the last one is Su Yi.
The flashlight not far away made people unable to open their eyes, as if it was as dazzling as an operating room.
Reporters and photographers from various countries came, and the whole scene was very grand.
To put it bluntly, although the actor has not been completely decided yet, basically half of the entertainment industry is here.
Many actors were applauding, including the powerful Tang Guoqiang and others, as well as the new generation of "niche" Chen Kun, Huang Xiaoming and others.
Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei on both sides are also competing for beauty, one is dignified and majestic, the other is icy and jade.
Somewhat similar looks, but completely different temperaments.
Han Sanping and others were on the stage at the end of the red carpet, looking at them with smiles.
The scene this time was too big.
Su Yi looked around, but he could see that Liu Yifei and Liu Shishi seemed to have no intention of leaving first.
He took a step.
And the two arms were held one on the left and the other on the right!
The scene was quiet. They were all actors or directors. They were surprised, but they could still maintain their superficial skills.
But the most important thing is that
Sweat dripped from Huang Jianxin’s forehead after seeing it!
It stands to reason that Liu Shishi and Liu Shishi can hold hands and walk behind or in front.
If you walk in front, you respect women, if you walk behind, you respect Director Su Yi, it doesn't matter.
But holding hands on the left and right, this is a bit... not nothing.
Click!
Click!
Countless flash lights lit up.
The dazzling light can make people blind in an instant. Even Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei have walked on countless red carpets, but they were surprised by today's show.
Because of the reporters around, there are more foreigners!
The two of them know that women are different from men, and their appearance is more important.
This time the two of them walked the red carpet in this way, so they couldn't be embarrassed.
Su Yi also didn’t expect such an ‘arrangement’.
But there were goddesses on both sides, and the warmth from his arms made him feel high-spirited.
Although I have been a human being for two lifetimes and have made great achievements in this world, I still have the same youthful feelings as in my previous life. He straightened his back and had a natural smile on his face.
In this kind of environment, if two girls hold hands, there won’t be any scandal. I guess so!
“Wow!”
The Batman crew took the lead in applauding.
The red carpet is not too long, but the journey is very long.
After all, there are flashing lights all around.
This is not a live broadcast, and photos to be published must be approved.
But Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei still work hard to maintain elegance.
Su Yi's smile almost froze on his face. He was always the director, so he really wasn't used to the camera.
Especially since the first performance was three years ago, I have already forgotten about it.
"Welcome. The director of the world's number one box office movie: The Dark Knight! Director Su Yi!"
The host is even a famous host from CCTV.
It can be seen that Su Yi's performance this time is also very important to the superiors.
Such a specification was also given to celebrate Su Yi's achievements. If he were a national teacher, he would not have this treatment! (End of chapter)
