Chapter 754 Thirteen thousand times(1/2)
[The author's new book: [The Rise of the Heavens from the Siheyuan], officially launched, everyone is welcome to collect and support. 】
Early July.
Hilton Hotel.
In a huge banquet hall...
On the podium...
An ice sculpture made of ice cubes in the shape of the number 350,000,000 made people who walked into the banquet hall involuntarily take a few more glances.
Downstairs in the hotel, the red carpet was laid out.
On both sides of the red carpet, reporters were ready.
"This Chinese director is so amazing. Movies not made by him, but movies written by him, do well at the box office and make money every time."
"Yeah, I really have to be convinced, even if I don't like his skin color."
"Shh...you have a lot of money? Stop saying this, otherwise...you will become a homeless person."
"Three grams of oil, mine, I drank fake wine."
"The cost was US$5 million, and the global box office was as high as 350 million. This box office alone has earned N times the cost."
"Some experts have calculated that it will earn 100 million at the box office alone."
"If you add in the subsequent copyright, the income from offline disc lights is estimated to be more than 300 million."
"Actually, this is not the most important thing. Do you know? I heard that this [Human Purge Plan] is a series and it was decided before it was released."
"A series? That would be even more profitable. Anyway, based on the cost and reputation of the first part, the second part will still make money no matter how bad it is."
The reporters who were waiting to take photos of the celebrities started chatting among themselves.
The words were full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Perfect as always...Qin."
"A toast to your genius."
Upstairs in the hotel, in a certain room.
Martin held two red wine glasses, handed one to Qin Dong, and said so.
"Shred."
Qin Dong, who was standing in front of the window without moving, just reached out to take the red wine, touched it, and took a small sip.
"I think more celebration banquets like this should be held. For example, [Divergent 2] is waiting to be released in a few days. I bet it will do well at the box office. We can also hold it after it is released."
When he came to the window, Martin, who accompanied Qin Dong and looked at the red carpet below, suddenly made a suggestion.
"Well, they are all artists signed by your CAA, Martin, of course you did."
Qin Dong, who did not turn his head, looked down and said casually.
I didn’t agree directly, but I didn’t refuse directly either.
Let’s talk about the next thing later.
If Qin Dong hadn't just finished filming his first movie with Warner DC, the crew had been disbanded, and a wrap-up banquet had to be held for the crew, Qin Dong wouldn't have appeared here at all.
It just so happens that Heishui Longqi's summer vacation this year blocks the release of the first movie "Human Purge", and the global release has officially ended for one month.
Achieving global box office figures of 353 million made everyone in the company happy. The manager, Caesar, called Qin Dong to consult Qin Dong’s opinion and asked whether a celebration banquet would be held.
Qin Dong happened to have finished filming and also needed to hold a wrapping party for the DC superhero crew, so the two teamed up to organize it together, saving money and trouble.
"Haha... Speaking of which, China's movie market is getting bigger and bigger, and its growth rate is getting faster and faster. I didn't expect that this time, this movie would have the largest box office in the world in China..."
Martin smiled. Since Qin Dong didn't answer, he couldn't continue talking.
So he changed the subject and started praising her.
"Everything is being estimated..."
Qin Dong was not surprised. China was his base, and no one knew it better than him.
[Purge], this movie has a global box office of 353 million.
However, North America only has 81 million U.S. dollars, and the rest of the world has only more than 90 million U.S. dollars, neither of which has exceeded 100 million U.S. dollars.
Only China's box office has exceeded US$100 million, and is almost reaching US$200 million.
This is the reason why the global box office has reached 353 million.
"The box office is 70 times the cost, which is almost breaking the record in Hollywood's history."
When Martin saw Qin Dong's expression, he was also convinced.
As a foreigner, he was surprised. He was a native of China, so it was normal for him to know more.
"Refresh it quickly, but it hasn't been refreshed. In fact, it is difficult to refresh it. Let's check again in a hundred years."
When Qin Dong heard this, he thought of a certain DV movie at the beginning of the millennium, its cost, and its unexpected box office data.
If you want to refresh this record, it may never be possible again.
There is nothing wrong with saying that there is no one before or after.
That [movie], let’s call it a movie.
That movie cost $15,000, yes, you read that right, only $15,000, but it made a global box office of $200 million.
With a box office of US$200 million and a cost of US$15,000, it is really difficult for others to break through this multiple.
The box office was 13,000 times the cost, thirteen thousand times.
Disappointing record numbers.
"See you again in a hundred years?"
"Perhaps, it is really necessary..."
Martin was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then after thinking about the cost and box office of certain movies, he silently agreed.
There are some weird records that really make it hard for people to have the desire to catch up.
Because the gap is wider than the Pacific Ocean.
...
Kyoto, morning.
within a certain neighborhood.
"What's wrong with this kid Tongtong? He's so angry so early in the morning?"
After Guan Ma made breakfast, she served it on the table and looked at the family cooking around the table.
The look on the second daughter's face made Guan Ma couldn't help but ask about her husband.
"What else could be the reason? Isn't it because I didn't go to Los Angeles to attend the celebration party of [Human Purge Plan] in which she starred..."
Guan's father, who had closed the newspaper and was about to have breakfast, heard this and looked at his second daughter angrily.
He didn't agree with this at all.
No matter how old the child is, he is still a child and wants to run around, even abroad.
"It's too far. Besides, Tongtong is not the protagonist. Why are you running there? There's no need."
Guan Ma heard this and agreed with this point.
Not going is the right decision.
"Dad, Mom...you..."
It's a pity that the second elder's attitude offended a certain angry little girl.
The little girl was wearing kawaii pajamas, but she still couldn't hide her long legs, which were more than one meter long.
Xiaohe has exposed her sharp corners...
"Eat honestly, and hurry up and write your summer homework after dinner. Don't wait for the day when your company will have a role again. Then you will have to rush to write before school starts."
Dad Guan made a serious request.
Children should not be too spoiled.
It must be taught from an early age.
"Tongtong, there is no need to worry. You are still young. Besides, you signed a thirty-year contract with Daqin. Your future is already guaranteed. You just need to follow the company's requirements and follow the steps."
Guan Ma still said a few words.
Nowadays, children are not the same as before. We cannot implement stick education, but must be enlightened properly.
"Yes, what your mother said is right. Your company didn't ask you to go, otherwise you would have already booked the flight. Since the company didn't ask, it means it's not necessary. Don't make your own calculations.
Hurry up and eat."
Dad Guan also said a few words casually.
