Chapter 167: The annual huge loss ranks third
She passed the news to Bai Xiaofei through Chen Baolian.
Maybe I think this is a normal thing?
Use the most promising director in China to promote an outdated Hollywood actor...
That's right, it's better than holding a stick!
Chen Baolian didn't mean to ask Bai Xiaofei at all, so she refused directly!
No one knows better what kind of person Xiaobai is than Chen Baolian. A typical angry young man asked him to support foreigners. Why?
Of course, out of friendship with colleagues, Director Bai Xiaofei's official Weibo still promoted "Quick Rogue" - both China and the United States were released at the same time!
Tips: In the future, whenever you see a domestic film that says "China-US" and "global" on the poster, don't believe it. Generally, you can definitely find this movie in North American theaters, but at most it is the case - people have a theater chain in a place in the United States that no one can find, and then choose the screening time to synchronize with the country. In this way, even if China-US paintings are started at the same time!
Anyone who knows it knows that December is the largest schedule in the North American market except for the summer season - the Christmas season.
There are also a bunch of Ao movies that will be released in December...
Even if they can’t even schedule their own movies to be screened in theaters, how can they have time to schedule films for the other side of the ocean?
At most, that's it.

"The most important thing is to do one thing seriously. As for the box office to be handed over to the audience, I don't care!"
"The Raider" was released for three days and had a box office of less than 40 million. Keanu Levi, who came to Beijing to promote, responded to the reporter's topic of unsatisfactory box office.
It’s right to think about it. They are already past the age of pursuing box office!
Keanu Reeves at his peak was a 20 million club member!
Not to mention anything else, the "Matrix" series not only established the Wachowski brothers' status in the field of science fiction films, but it is wrong. It should be said that the Wachowski sisters also made Keanu Reeves one of the richest superstars in Hollywood!
Before the first episode of "The Matrix" was released, Reeves only received a share of 10 million US dollars and 10% of the box office. As a result, the global box office of the film of 463 million yuan made him profit of 56 million. However, compared with the sequel, this figure is still inferior. Reeves' share of the two sequels contracts increased to 15%, with a total revenue of 175 million yuan.
However, he gave a large portion of his pay to the clothing and special effects department, making many people millionaires.
I paid out of my own pocket and bought an expensive Harley motorcycle for my 12 action stand-ins in the movie.
The remaining 70% of the pay was donated to the hospital...
This is a good person!
The promotion on that day happened to be the birthday of producer Li Shaohong. The main creators celebrated his birthday together on the spot. The atmosphere on the scene was very warm...
It seems that the box office failure is not taken seriously at all...
Calm and calm, this is the look of the king after seeing through everything!
Keanu Reeves, a very charming person!
When he was young, Keanu Reeves, Johnny Depp, Revan Phoenix, the famous Hollywood drug abuse trio. Later, he witnessed his friend Revan Phoenix's death from excessive drug use. He quit drugs with Johnny Depp...
He has good character and is very willing to do so. In order to accompany his sister who suffers from leukemia, he also spent a lot of time and money to help with charity related to it. At the same time, he took the initiative to reduce his pay for the actors he liked.
In addition, this person has no bodyguards, does not buy a luxury house, lives in a hotel for a long time, and lives a wandering life;
Don’t buy a luxury car, just drive your favorite motorcycle;
Although he has been filming bad movies in recent years, he even made a movie "Tai Chi Hero" that lost a huge year last year. Wanda lost so much, so he directly lost the original sequel "Kung Fu Hero"...
But it can't stand the Chinese being rich!
Who knows where Yongsheng got the courage to find him to star in a movie and paid $8 million in film...
Although many movie fans left messages on Douban: "I went to watch this movie for Keanu Reeves!"
"I hope everyone supports this movie more, so that Lao Ji will continue to develop in China..."
"How is the movie? It doesn't matter. Keanu Reeves is still very handsome. My pants are falling off!"
"The work starring Keanu Reeves has an unparalleled sense of smoothness. Those who give low scores casually don't taste this movie with great care. It's highly recommended!"
...
In recent years, the mainland film market has been popular year by year. "Lost in Thailand" and "Journey to the West" have successively exceeded 1.2 billion yuan in box office, while "To Youth", "Seattle", "Chinese Partners", "Di Renjie's God Capital Dragon King" have also exceeded 500 million yuan, and "Macau Storm 2" and "Taking Tiger Mountain in Strategy" have all exceeded 800 million yuan, making major film companies willing to make blockbusters.
However, there is no fixed number of things like movies, and no one knows the audience's taste!
"1942", which has a box office of 200 million yuan, cannot be recovered even if it reaches 360 million yuan, and "One Step Away" has a box office of 500 million yuan, which is even more costly!
However, compared with the Yongsheng masterpiece "The Legend of Chu and Han", these two movies are still a big witch.
300 million investment, 120 million box office...
Although the loss of the entire movie has been reduced to 200 million through overseas copyrights and peripheral marketing, it is still ranked first in the year without any controversy!
By the way, in recent years, "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" and "The King's Feast" have all lost money. It's no wonder that everyone has been filming Qinggong dramas...
This year's Yongsheng is a bit like Anle a few years ago. The boss of Anle Film and Television has been very famous in recent years. The movie "Monster Hunt" has completely put him on the altar and the number one producer in Asia - of course, it was also very famous before. The producer of "Hero" is Lao Jiang...
However, the works produced by Anle Film and Television in the past few years are "Su Qi'er", "The Wolf Disaster", "Murderer", "Huang Feihong's Heroes Have Dreams"...
It can be said that a miracle was lost!
Now that they have made it, with the IP "Monster Hunt", the box office of "Just Paipai" can also be 2 billion - even if you scold me, the box office is low, I will be counted as if it is low!
"The Raider" also lost money, of course, it was far from reaching the level of "The Legend of Chu and Han", which firmly locked in the throne of the year!
Moreover, Chen Laoba is planning to add a special project of "Chu Han" in the theme park - although the movie has lost money, it has gained some popularity and is just to spend money to promote it...
I believe that in a few years, through the theme park project, we should be able to make back the money lost by "The Legend of Chu and Han"...
"Rogue" overseas copyright sells well. Keanu Reeves is a former Hollywood superstar after all. She sells movies in his name, and her sales are pretty good...
I guess this is also the reason why Wanda is willing to smash "Tai Chi Hero".
But no matter what, "The Thunderbolt" still lost, with a loss of nearly $8 million...
The huge annual loss ranks third.
As for the second-ranked one, who almost surpassed "The Legend of Chu and Han" was Wu Baige's masterpiece "Taiping Wheel"!
The production cost of 400 million yuan, the final box office, the two films combined did not exceed 250 million yuan...
Chapter completed!
