Chapter 217 slaps the entire industry in the face and shows you who the real king is
The most playful person was Miss Catherine, who directly chartered the repaired model ship of the Titanic for a day.
Then he forced Wang Lei to play with the classic scene in the movie of Jack holding the shredded meat.
Holding Catherine with her eyes tightly closed, Wang Lei's eyes were a little blurry, thinking that it would be a good choice to turn the Titanic into an attraction.
It can also be regarded as a secondary use of waste.
After the box office results for Titanic's second week were released, the entire industry was in an uproar.
This movie, which they regarded as destined to become the worst movie in history, unexpectedly grossed US$2 million at the box office.
No one would question Paramount and theater chain data fraud. For a whole week, no matter how many films were scheduled for Titanic, it was always overcrowded and the attendance rate was astonishing.
People had to re-evaluate Titanic's box office estimates.
But this time all institutions hesitated, having experienced being slapped in the face for the first time.
They dare not jump to conclusions.
Some people have given a box office estimate of 12 billion. They feel that this movie-going trend will stop sooner or later. Once the popularity is over, the box office growth will slow down.
Someone gave a box office estimate of 15 billion, because after their statistics, many elderly people showed up in the cinema with their wives. Titanic broke the age barrier, and the movie-going crowd almost consisted of young, middle-aged and old people.
What scares the Big Four in Hollywood is that theaters are reducing their movie schedules, and all the movie schedules in the new week are tilted towards Titanic.
Even their newly released movie was greatly affected.
Protests are definitely necessary, but the reasons given by the hospital are also very good. The attendance rate of Titanic is very high, and it would be really stupid not to make money if you have money.
This result made several minor league players angry.
Kembauer was so angry that he smashed things up in the club, scaring the service staff so much that they dared not speak out.
Looking at the box office of Titanic which is still growing in reverse, Crombauer's mentality is indeed broken at this moment.
He didn't know where he was wrong.
Obviously everyone thought that the Titanic would be a serious loss-making project, but in the hands of Wang Lei, it was reborn.
Seeing Shirley's announcement that the Titanic had begun to make a profit, Krombauer's heart began to ache.
He should have had a share of these applause and income.
Now Fox has become synonymous with idiots, and has become the subject of after-dinner jokes among the greedy public.
As for the clan elders, they all became angry and began to ask him and Guy why they transferred such a profitable project to Wang Lei at a low price.
Their little league has also become a talking point among peers in the family.
Some people who didn't deal with them called specifically to ridicule them for being so blind that they let such a big project go.
The most vicious thing is that the Rockefeller family actually publicly mocked the Ross family. A group of people joined forces to deal with Wang Lei, and they suffered such a big loss.
Although the Rockefeller family has kept a low profile now, their influence in the beautiful country is unmatched by them, so they can only bite the bullet and accept the other party's ridicule.
The Minor League Baseball team kept silent about the incident during meetings. They had a tacit understanding that they did not want to mention it again.
But seeing the box office of Titanic constantly breaking the box office record set by Jurassic Park, they all gritted their molars in envy.
The most terrible thing is that some organizations predict that Titanic will not have any rivals for a long time (Beautiful Country will not withdraw the film as long as it still makes money), and the global box office is likely to exceed 18 billion US dollars!
Men and women who are moved will go into the cinema again and again to watch it again and again.
Paramount certainly made a killing on this project.
The minor league's desire to cause Paramount to suffer huge losses has become an almost impossible task.
They counted the series of movies that Paramount had in their hands, and all they were left with was deep despair.
Even Guy felt a little regretful as to why he chose such a track to arm-wrestle with Wang Lei, who had accumulated a lot of experience in the entertainment industry in Hong Kong City and Sakura Island.
Perhaps it’s because Hollywood is a vanity fair, and any slightest move will be amplified by entertainment reporters.
But he didn't expect that he would be the one injured.
Just when the minor leagues kept silent about the things that caused Paramount to lose money, things unexpectedly turned around.
The TV is playing an interview with Paramount President Shirley by a TV reporter.
When asked about Paramount’s new initiatives, Shirley said proudly:
"We are going to spend a lot of money to build Paramount Television and enter the TV drama business!"
Before everyone could recover from this heavy news.
Shirley announced another big project:
"We plan to bring the entire Marvel system to the big screen, and will successively start filming individual movies for heroes such as Iron Man, Hulk, and Thor. Accordingly, we will build Paramount theme parks around the world."
Whether it is setting up your own TV station or bringing the Marvel world system to the big screen, it is a particularly expensive project.
The most important thing is that Paramount wants to imitate Disney and build a new theme park!
This thing first requires large-scale land sales. Although land is very cheap in some states of the beautiful country, it still costs hundreds of millions of dollars in investment. The most critical thing is the operating expenses, which is a bottomless pit.
Guy looked at Shirley, who was chatting and ready to roll up her sleeves and do something big. He vaguely realized that this was the real business behind Wang Lei's entry into Hollywood.
They don't even care about how much money they can earn from making a movie, let alone investment tycoon Wang Lei.
TV stations can produce on-demand TV series and place advertisements. This is the real money-making business.
The purpose of filming the Marvel Universe is to sell derivative toys, enrich Paramount’s copyright library, and create Paramount theme parks around the world!
When the park built by Disney in California opened in 1955, it attracted 300 million visitors six months later, and attracted a total of 5000 million visitors ten years after its opening!
What it brings to Disney is a steady stream of cash flow.
There has indeed been a park trend in Hollywood recently. Not only is Disney building a new park, Lianhuanqiu is also gearing up to build a new park in Dongzhou.
Guy couldn't help but glance at Akhben, who was doing postpartum recovery training, and couldn't help but envy his sister. Universal also has amusement park business.
But Guy soon felt that this was a new opportunity.
Paramount is looking for death by expanding so many new businesses all at once, and it seems that Wang Lei has no intention of listing Paramount.
And he could personally feel that Paramount was getting a little carried away with its small success, and even wanted to enter the TV station industry and the amusement park industry at the same time.
Even the most inconspicuous Marvel Universe movie, Guy is not very optimistic about it.
"Spider-Man has just become a hit, and he is thinking about creating a Marvel universe. Does Wang Lei think hero movies can be mass-produced?"
