Hollywood Hunter

End the trip to South Korea, Simon returned to North America, and time is March 2.

First pay attention to the During the Valentine's Day, North America has passed.

Danieli's first master of 1999, the US version of Tom Hank, "Love Call Transfer", released on February 12th, ending on February 12 to February 18th The first week, I won the $ 41.95 million box office.

Open the door.

Subsequently, from February 19th to February 25th, the decline in "Love Call Transfer" is well controlled to 36%, and then charges $ 26.83 million, accumulating 68.78 million US dollars.

Simon returned to North America. Time is Tuesday, the third week weekend of the film has also been released, continued to pay 12.89 million US dollars, and the accumulated box office broke through 80 million points, reaching 81.67 million US dollars.

Obviously, this US version of "Love Call Transfer" local box office is only a time problem. Moreover, referring to the present box room curve prediction, the North American local box office of this movie is also expected to be between 120 million to $ 130 million.

Also said that overseas, although some core tickets countries have not realized Valentine's Day synchronization, they are currently basically open.

As of Simon returning to North America, the US version of "Love Call Transfer" Overseas Box Office has also broken through 70 million US dollars, comprehensive data, total film overseas rooms are expected to be between 150 million US $ 200 million.

The global box office is expected to reach $ 300 million.

The production cost of the film is 40 million US dollars, Xuanfeng spending 20 million, the world is calculated in accordance with 300 million US dollars, just the stage of the hospital, this movie can achieve a profit of about 70 million US dollars, obviously a great success.

Feel the most intuitive first is China.

The original "Love Call Transfer" is a domestic ah. After all, most people don't know the insider of this project, so a project adaptation, I can realize the box office in Hollywood, and I am proud of life.

The first is that the project all the green light passes the review of the Chinese mainland, and the schedule is scheduled for the end of March, which is definitely a speed in the introduction of the film.

Second, the New Year's Film "Party B" released in China, because it is the principal of "love" last year, after overseas, everyone can't see the "love" last year, I will pin up. "Party A Party B".

As the US version of the news of "Love" is spread in China, "Party B" box office curve has an unexpected earnings, which is expected to be 50 million box office volume, and it has increased by about 30 million in one fell swoop. The point is expected to reach 180 million yuan.

The book is also planned, and I plan to "love" China's "Love" China in March, I will re-push my own original re-enter the courtyard.

No matter how much earning, it is sure to earn.

In the case of North America, the industry is inevitably interpreted, and the situation is intended to stand with the wind.

However, there are some people, especially in the Hollywood circle, in fact, it has seen more.

In February during the cold door, even if there is a Valentine's Day, in the past, it is possible to break through the threshold of the billion box office club. It is basically an annual black horse.

Now, the US version "Love" is a black horse?

Not countless.

The main characteristics of the black horse film are to sell unexpectedly when everyone is expected.

The US version of "Love", the production and Xuanfa has invested 60 million US dollars. It can be said to be a heavy bomb level. The production company is willing to invest so much funds for a project. It is obviously a quite expectation for business prospects, so this is It is not an unexpected success.

However, the US version of "Love" is undoubtedly a quite successful project, especially in February.

So, why is it so successful?

Because the current Hollywood, it is no longer a Hollywood that has started to stand and shoulder.

Danieli, which has been born, has more and more resources, splitting a growing market, the strength of the strength is getting deeper, squeezing other peers living space is getting smaller, ultimately, thorough Changed everything.

Besides, in the traditional concept, it is difficult to have a billion yuan box office film in February.

Because this time, the first movement of the movie is sharply lowered, and the market volume is naturally narrowed. Second, even if the ticket is as big, you still have to compete with each other, and you have a smaller cake that is not big. Therefore, it is difficult to sell a large piece of seller of the billion box office level.

Now, Danieli entertainment broke the rules.

With its powerful Xuanfeng network, Daniel is first stimulated that more public entered the theater at this time, expanded the market volume.

Second, because Danieli is more and more strong, the Hollywood Other Factory Factory has been constantly compressing the production and investment volume, resulting in a significant reduction in the competition in the same period with Danieli.

The cake is bigger, the competition is reduced, and the US version of "Love" itself is enough good quality, so it is easy to break the volume limit of the traditional February of the cold-fashioned box office in February, which is not surprising.

Speaking, in the original time, this is also a trend in Hollywood.

Once history, when other popular stages could not satisfy their own movie displacement, the strong Di Bao began to open up the February.

The more typical is "Black Leopard", released in February, some extent show that Di Bao is less unconfident in this Moi and pure black hero film, the result is that this film actually in the beginning of the cold door, Just sell $ 700 million.

This completely breaking the market performance of the scheduled limit, the inherent cause, and the "love" "Love" at this time. One is that Di Bao at that time is too strong, and the other is that other competitors are weaker and weaker.

The big production plant at the time, except for Disney, Warner and Global, all other empty shelves were left.

And this time-time Hollywood, Danieli started to force until the beginning of reservation last year, next, in addition to the 'competitors', other production plants plans to stay in Simon, will also come to the empty shelf.

Simon returned to Hollywood, some of the mergers have been quietly promoted.

About MGM and Fox.

There is also the old Murdoque to try to pick up the little action of the Lucas film. Simon actually heard the news, but there is no meant, anyway, it is finally in his own pocket.

Because Simon did not intervene, Murdoch finally talked into this business with a total price of $ 1.7 billion in cash. 1.7 billion US dollars, acquired Lucas shadow, including in recent years, in the development of Dannie, in the development of the CG field, and the "Star Wars", "Racing Baobao" and other popular series copyright.

It is to know that the trend of Disney spends $ 70 billion, hits Fox, in addition to the copyright that I want to recover the X-war series, there is a reason, I hope to completely join the Qi Xing series.

The top six global issues in the first six weeks of the Star War, including many surrounding rights, and have always been in the hands of Fox before Disney acquisition.

Now, Fox won the Lucas shadow, although Simon felt a little higher, after all, after more than ten years, this price was only $ 4 billion, but it was also acceptable, after all, Lucas continued to ensure the right to speak, A shares that have been required to $ 1.2 billion equivalent to 70% share.

In short, next, MGM will merge with Fox, Simon Basic is completely mastering the super large IP of the Star War.

In addition, it is worth mentioning, as well as the industrial light magic and "winning treasures".

Even if these years, the West Mongolia is far less than that of the industrial light magic technology, but it is also a fish far away from the Vistrando system. When you caught in your hand, Simon's control of Hollywood special effects will be A step.

Or that sentence, it is not the same as CG and the special effects, just like the people who will do not necessarily do martial arts guidance.

It is "Raising the Baoying".

This is also a gold mine series, but unfortunately the issuance of the issuance is in the hand of the Paramount, and there are still some insecure of the old people. However, as long as the project is started, it is exactly sent to the Lao Student to shoot "Treasures 4", in short, when it comes, the interest of this is certainly will not be less.

I won the Lucusian shadow, and then who combined who had a problem.

Murdo can take the Star War series in advance, in fact, in order to fight for more active in this regard.

Simon did not force this.

After all, the news group is also a cooperative object of Simon, so returns to North America, and the two have eaten breakfast together, and things will be finalized.

MGM was incorporated into Fox.

However, as a retreat, the new Fox film team after integration will serve as the CEO of Snowy Lansin.

Again the specific merger size.

Due to the goodness of the Vistrando system, in addition to a series of seller projects in recent years, MGM's market value has been in a high state, and the recent market value reaches $ 4.3 billion. Fox, the entire 20th century Fox's Parent Company News Group current market value is $ 16.5 billion.

Obviously big fish eat small fish.

However, according to the agreement reached by Simon and Murdoch, the news group will make a split, cut into a unique 20th century Fox and News Group for two parts from the market.

Even if the paper media industry declines, but count the news group in Australia, Europe and Asia's paper media and TV assets, stripped, mainly based on paper media and the United States, which will take about 7 billion US dollars. City value, the remaining 20th century Fox company, including Fox TV, Fox Cable, Fox Film and other assets, with a discount of about $ 9.5 billion.

Both sides have not required premium or discounts, with the current stock price.

Also consider the Lucas shadow.

Therefore, after the merger, the new 20th century Fox company, the original Focus holds the shareholding ratio of 63%, George Lucas holds 8%, and the original rice mime is held 29%.

Just look at this shareholding ratio, it seems like Shimon's lack of words, but in fact, in the 63% shares of the original Fox, only 17% of the Murdoch family, although the subdivision is also the largest shareholder But the absolute control is a lot.

To put it bluntly, the new company has basically inclined to a mass hold company.

However, the actual situation is that small shareholders must be on the side.

As for the major shareholders, it is also necessary to rely on the board of directors to implement control.

This is also the one hand of Simon and the old Mumetk comparison.

Of course, an agreement is reached.

The nine-person plans for the plan, except George Lucas to maintain one of their own rights requirements, and half of the two sides.

After all, if you really want to strive for the control of the new company through the public shareholders, Simon and Murdo can stand on the stage, those shareholders will choose, there is no suspense.

In addition, compared to the company's power, the company's power can be revengened, Murdoch is not so extreme in the company's control. Moreover, Murdo can also be clear, and there is not much choice.

If you refuse this transaction?

Can.

It is also possible to continue to control the company in your hand.

However, with the style of Hollywood, basics also means that this company will go up.

On the day of the breakfast, Simon directly clarified the guess of Murdoch.

Therefore, this is a chance to give the Murdoch family, rather than the Simon to the Murdoch family promise this transaction.

The next Hollywood, Simon only plans to keep two competitors that can be slightly compete with Danieli.

One of the places has given Warner.

Another one, in fact, it has also been determined, it is expanding based on MGM's team.

Fox didn't get on the bus this time, and wanted to get on the train later, it would be difficult. Even the initial idea of ​​Simon, there is no chance to Fox.

Simon also wanted to discure the disney that Wanti, France.

Even if the big butterfly in Simon has taken too much air transport, owns the theme park business and the large number of animated IP accumulation, or a slightly smashing, you can re-recover. Therefore, even if this consumption is completed, Simon has not given up Disney's intend.

As for others, including Fox, it is to look at the fate.

Simon initial mind, but also to see the "Star Wars Prequel" series is about to go online, and, with the Murdoch family reached a deeper alliance, further consolidating the voice of the Vistrai system in the global public opinion.

However, if this is not willing, then it is.

The result is that only the transaction volume, the seemingly 20th century Fox accounts for the big head, but the control is as good as Fox sells to Disney, it is obviously impossible to win too much control, this time. It is possible to continue to serve as the chairman of the new company.

The basic transaction framework is reached, and the two sides will release news from the day on March 5th.

Again again.

Obviously, Fox, MGM, plus a Lucas film, which can only be counted in the seven bottoms or in the second line, together, and suddenly show a giant meteor. The current Hollywood, in addition to the high tall Danieli entertainment and back to the GE Times Warner, the new 20th century Fox company, as long as the merger, it is directly chasing the third position.
