Chapter 1565

In the relaxed atmosphere of talking and laughing, a story about three bodies was born unconsciously. When several classical theories about the three body novel were constructed by Simon, Sylvia only felt wonderful.

So simple?

Of course, it's not simple. However, only a bright eyed little girl can understand what happened. Although the little girl is very interested in some statements in the story, she can't help thinking about others, she doesn't care. Including where my father came from and where he will go.

Because of a special brain, the world in the eyes of a little girl is different from ordinary people.

Sylvia is Anthony's second child. Compared with Rebecca, the youngest sister who is only 6 years old, she was actually born in 1971. She is 28 years old this year. When she was in college, she did not go to Britain and the United States to study like most upper class children in Australia. Instead, she studied history directly at the University of Melbourne. The discipline is in line with her class, and then she entered Johnston holdings, At present, he has been engaged to his boyfriend who is a good match in the upper class of Australia and plans to complete the wedding this summer.

A step-by-step life.

After such a chat, the girl unexpectedly aroused her literary hobby that had been shelved for a long time. She also talked about running a literary magazine in college, and then volunteered to complete the story, hoping that uncle Simon, who was only three years older than her, could make a film.

Simon doesn't care.

Just think, this story seems to be more suitable to be shot as a TV play. Sylvia obviously doesn't mind. It's just a TV play. Just what DHO needs most is all kinds of weights. In that case, things will be roughly settled.

In fact, Hollywood is like this. Although there are tens of millions of billions of dollars of investment, the emergence of many old classics is often just a flash in life, not as tall as ordinary people think. The most typical is terminator, just a dream.

Simon is also curious. He just refers to some structures given by his memory. This new three bodies will be written by Sylvia.

Like, the beginning has changed.

In the chat, the beginning time of the story was set as World War II. The heroine witnessed the war and killing between humans and lost her close relatives, so she lost hope for the world. The time entered the cold war, the United States and the Soviet Union competed for hegemony, and the secret alien research found that there were aliens on the Centaurus Samsung closest to mankind. Therefore, the story began.

……

After staying in Australia for a week, Simon returned to North America on January 21, because this Sunday is the award ceremony of the 57th American film and television Golden Globe Award.

No intention of attending.

Too much work has been accumulated here and it is impossible to stay in Melbourne. Instead, Jenny and them will still wait until February this time.

After such a long vacation, I went back to work on the weekend.

First of all, we should pay attention to the past schedule at the end of 1999.

In late January, Simon paid more attention to the specific trend of the film. At present, there are only two films left, one is Chicago and the other is the Lord of the rings: the guardian of the rings.

In the past box office week, from January 14 to January 20, "Chicago" was released for the fourth week. Since the third week, it has been the one week box office champion for two consecutive weeks. With excellent reputation and continued high popularity, after the slightly deepened 31% decline in the week after new year's day, the decline in the fourth week narrowed again to 19% and earned US $22.65 million.

Four weeks after its release, the cumulative box office of this song and dance film quickly reached 140.92 million US dollars.

Although looking at the current trend, it is unlikely to rush 300 million as expected after the first week's box office, it is still worth looking forward to how far it can go after a stable 200 million. Therefore, the performance of Chicago in this award season is very important. Gaomen film's attitude is not to lose.

The second place is the Lord of the rings: the guardian of the rings.

In the sixth week of release, the first song of the Lord of the rings decreased by 29% in a single week, continued to earn US $19.15 million, and the cumulative box office reached US $286.56 million.

In the next two weeks at most, the local box office of the Lord of the rings: the messenger of the ring will exceed 300 million. It is expected that the total volume will not change much, but will still be equivalent to steel bone 2, about 330 million to 350 million US dollars.

However, the overseas performance of this fantastic epic is unexpectedly stronger than that of steel bone 2. Judging from the overseas data accumulated recently, the overseas box office of the Lord of the rings: the guardian of the rings is likely to reach the level of $600 million, so it will promote the global total box office to reach the level of $900 million, or even close to $1 billion.

In addition to the two films, steel skeleton 2, the film has entered the closing stage of less than $10 million a week, and the total local box office volume is more obvious, and the landing point will be between $330 million and $340 million.

Overseas, from the current trend, the overseas revenue of this DC Super masterpiece is about $500 million to $600 million, which means that the global box office is between $800 million and $900 million, which can break the threshold of $900 million at most, not as good as the potential of $1 billion of the first song of the Lord of the rings.

After the two local 300 million level super heavyweights, there are "game of the brave 2" and "racing story". The trend of the two films is basically determined, both with a volume of 200 million US dollars. Among them, "racing story" is slightly ahead, and the local volume is expected to be between $220 million and $230 million, while "game of the brave 2" is slightly better, between $210 million and $220 million.

Overseas, racing story is not as good as braver's game 2. The overseas volume of the former is still about US $200 million, and the global box office is between us $400 million and US $500 million. While braver's game 2 is easy to break 300 million overseas, so the global expectation is also more than US $500 million.

Of course, in terms of box office, "motor racing" is not only incomparable with the super works of the same period, but also lags behind in the Pixar Animation Series. But speaking of the surrounding areas, it was only two months at the end of the year, just in the United States. By the end of December, the surrounding sales brought by this 3D animation had quickly exceeded US $1 billion, reaching US $1.17 billion. Outside Shanghai, the total sales of the film in less than two months at the end of 1999 exceeded US $1.6 billion.

In short, if so, other projects in the same period can only call dad.

Because of the super sales around motorsport, of course, we can't ignore the success of films such as the Lord of the rings: the guardian at the end of 1999. Previously, danilis entertainment, which has only been able to catch up with igrit company, has stabilized the market value of the former in recent months, becoming the super giant with the highest market value of Listed Companies in the world.

Later, for MGM's 007 Casino Royale, the total domestic box office has been fixed at US $161 million, overseas is expected to exceed US $300 million, and the global box office is about US $500 million, which is a good performance.

Finally, there are "alien 3" and "genius Ripley". Both projects regret to stop outside the threshold of 100 million yuan box office club. The local box office of "alien 3" is expected to be about 93 million, and "genius Ripley" will stay around 88 million. However, in the same way, the overseas performance of the two projects is stronger than that of the local projects, which is expected to be a global volume of US $200 million.

In addition to a series of films scheduled for the end of 1999, we have to say that the documentary "Mount Everest" in September last year has been basically completed recently, including China. The domestic box office of this documentary was US $106 million, and overseas, including China's 114 million yuan, totaled about US $137 million. The total global box office was US $243 million.

With a total investment of more than $10 million, the global box office was $243 million, with a return on investment of more than 20 times, higher than the ghost 2, which invested a total of $25 million last summer and a global investment of $276 million. Therefore, it became the film with the highest return in 1999.

Most importantly, this is a documentary, which makes people speechless and amazing.

Finally, as of December 31, 1999, the total box office of the North American film market in the past year was US $6.73 billion, of which only the films directly distributed by danilis entertainment, excluding the cooperative projects such as brave man's game 2, the total box office finally reached US $3.46 billion, accounting for 51%.

The response of other Hollywood studios to this is just powerlessness and numbness. Unconsciously, everyone has become more and more accustomed to the strength of danilis entertainment.

After all, you can't get used to it.
