Chapter 1652: Finding Nemo
Simon stayed in South Korea for two days until the morning of June 15th and flew back to North America.
Arriving in Los Angeles, due to the time difference, it was still on the morning of June 15th.
It's Thursday.
Even though I have been away for more than half a month, the country is still there.
Of course, Janet was complained about it, too ignorant of the family, Balabara and Simon were doing good and started a period of nine to five.
In fact, Simon spent most of his years in Los Angeles, but his ordinary family life often seemed like a gurgling water, as if it would flow quietly in a blink of an eye.
Since I’m back, I will first pay attention to the summer season that has already started.
The film that played in May is worth mentioning "Hurricane Rescue 2" starring Jeter Lee. This action movie, which was the opening of Daenerys' 2000 summer season, started with the popularity accumulated and good reputation of the sequel. It started on May 19 and successfully won a box office of US$45.36 million in the first week.
Then, in the next week, the film's decline was controlled to a good 37%, and it collected another $28.61 million, with a cumulative box office of $73.97 million, basically locking in another 100 million box office club film that locked Daenerys.
The day after Simon returned to Los Angeles, the box office in the fourth week of "Hurricane Rescue 2" was announced, with an additional $7.98 million. Including the $14.01 million in the third week, the cumulative box office has reached $95.96 million.
In the following week from June 16 to June 23, with a net income of $5.16 million, "Hurricane Rescue 2" successfully exceeded 100 million, with a total of $101.12 million.
Considering the subsequent box office potential, the total box office volume of the film in North America is expected to be around 110 million US dollars. Although it is not as heavy as those DC movie universe projects, the North American local score of over 100 million is still successfully pushed Jet Lee to the position of Hollywood's first-line male star.
Another Chinese superstar was born, and the news came back to the other side of the ocean, and it was inevitable that it would be another lively.
Of course, as for the fact that Jeter Lee has quietly become a US citizen, of course no one will mention it in dismay, as it is all the pride of the Chinese.
After "Hurricane Rescue 2", what I want to talk about is the new Pixar 3D animated film "Finding Nemo" that will be painted on June 1.
Speaking of which, Friday of that week was June 2, one day ahead of schedule, so of course it was to catch up with the Children's Day period. After all, although Pixar's animated movies are all ages, they are more friendly to children in the end.
In addition, the schedule in early June is often the day when Daenerys's most important project was launched. Simon has pushed the animated film "Finding Nemo" to this position this year, rather than a live-action blockbuster. Although it is understandable with the historical achievements of Pixar animation, it is always confusing.
Only Simon knows that if you only talk about box office, "Finding Nemo" can be said to be Pixar's most successful animated film at that time, with a global box office of nearly $1 billion.
Of course, it is limited to box office.
Compared with Toy Story, "Racing Story"'s huge peripheral income, the former "Finding Nemo" seems a bit embarrassing. The most popular peripheral is the clown fish in the film.
This is alive.
This time, the same is true.
Fortunately, the box office of the film did not disappoint Simon. The painting started on June 1st, and the first week was 8 days. This animated film that inherited Pixar's reputation as outstanding as ever quickly won a box office of US$107.22 million, becoming the first week of the first episode of 2000... Although there was one more day, it finally achieved a rare film that exceeded 100 million. After all, it only talked about Daenerys's own "Hurricane Rescue 2", and the total local box office was probably only so many.
After the first week opened high, immediately after the second week, the 32% drop was still a huge amount of $72.91 million, indicating that the film's local box office in North America will easily exceed the $300 million mark, and even 350 million is not impossible to make a move.
When Simon saw the data, he had just returned from South Korea, so he couldn't help but compare it.
"Find Nemo" has been synchronized in South Korea, and it will be painted on June 1, while "My Savage Girlfriend" is on June 2, a serious Friday.
Although the number of viewers in this cartoon in the first week in South Korea was only 690,000, and the total number of viewers of about 2 million is far less than the total number of "My Savage Girlfriend" 5 million to 6 million, but... well, it's too bullying, forget it.
Then again, it is another film in the "2" series of this summer season, "Singing and Dance 2".
After the first song was a success, two years later, "Singing and Dance 2" returned. As the heroine Christina Aguilera became more and more popular in her singing career, it was still in the publicity stage, the film had already gained widespread expectations from countless teenagers.
After the premiere in advance, the reputation was released, and the critics also gave excellent media ratings of up to 8.1.
Finally, the paintings started on June 16, with 2,763 screens. In the first seven days, this youth music and dance film with a very accurate audience quickly won a box office of US$5,361, an increase of 31% compared to the 41.09 million yuan earned in the seven-day play of the first song. It is expected that the total box office will also rise to a higher level. It is conservatively estimated that it will be up to US$150 million, and the world is basically locked in a 300 million scale.
Although the sequel budget doubled compared to the production cost of the first song to $15 million, the global box office volume of 30 million can still bring rich profits to Daenerys only in the theater stage.
It was June 23rd in a blink of an eye.
Another Friday.
Simon only worked overtime for less than an hour today, finished his week of work and returned home at six o'clock in the evening.
After dinner with the family, we watched TV together for a while. Simon set off at about 9 o'clock.
As usual at night, it is a party.
The location is still in the mansion on the hillside of Palisade, officially hosted by Daenerys, mainly to celebrate the success of a series of recent films. The main creators of a series of crews such as "Find Nemo", "Hurricane Rescue 2", "Singing and Dance Youth 2" were all invited. Of course, if others can get invitation letters, they can also come.
Simon returned to Los Angeles last week and has not gone out to socialize much. Today is the first time.
When we arrived at the party scene, the excitement here has lasted for more than two hours. It is probably confirmed that Simon will appear. Many guests who often leave early after communicating at the party did not leave early tonight.
Chapter completed!
