Chapter 874： "District 9" Summary

Lehman knew about Chris Weitz's strength. When Ryan returned to convey his verbal wishes, he immediately asked Johnson to talk to Chris's agent.

There is nothing to say in this regard. The golden compass will definitely have an impact on the career. After two rounds of negotiations, Chris Weitz’s director salary is set at 6.5 million. Without any sharing of accounts, he enjoys the offline benefits of the project in the American pie. The treatment of the staffing of the crew means that the team of his studio can enter the Crescent Studio.

Mainly, he felt that the behind-the-scenes personnel he was familiar with could be competent, so he determined the salary position. Of course, Firefly would also dispatch finance and production, and it was impossible for them to be formed at will.

This kind of trust is nothing to Firefly, but after experiencing Warner's strong production team, Chris Weitz was even more useful, and he also encouraged himself not to fail again and to shoot seriously.

Another day, after the new moon project was approved, Chris made a small request, but the Twilight series also attracted his older brother Paul Weitz, who wanted to be one of the producers.

This is a trivial matter, and this person's experience is there, Lehmann agreed.

Chris was overjoyed and thanked his brother.

Lehmann smiled, "I still need him to help me with the trivia of the crew and to deal with the fire insurance review. You just need to feel at ease to direct and transfer to the later stage before next summer. Is there any problem?"

"Enough is enough, I have the confidence to complete it."

It took more than 5 months to make a Mary Sue movie, and there were not many transitions. In fact, it was very comfortable.

......

The time comes to December 26th. As the ninth district enters the last few days of the countdown, the new moon heroine Stuart joins the crew with a salary of 6 million, and the male lead Pattinson has risen to 7.5 million. Up, also more than 4.5 million.

As a result, the difficulty of shooting the second part is not high, the special effects scenes are only a little more, and the production cost has been raised from 35 million to 51 million. This is within reason.

However, both Lionsgate and Firefly are optimistic about the profit potential of Crescent Moon.

After all, the first book has a solid foundation, and it has swept more than 400 million. With the bonus of the Firefly label and the novel author Stephanie, relying on the lunar eclipse to accumulate more book fans, when the series is more popular, Qian Jing is very optimism.

Liam is reporting on the offline operation of the ninth district, "The North American score of the film should be fixed at 277 million, overseas 295 million, and global 572 million. Starting from January 5th, the first 2 million sets of hardcover DVDs will be sold by Blockbuster, Channel stores such as Netflix are expected to sell out within 30 days, and the number of people who rent and watch movies online will only increase.”

In the office, several officers of Blue Butterfly Pictures waited for the boss to finish speaking, and then explained in more detail on the side, and the atmosphere was slightly relaxed.

No way, the reputation of the ninth district is very good, and it is still in the upper reaches of the imdbtop250 list. Many fans have expressed their willingness to buy a collection.

Even in 2008, due to the continuous development of streaming media and the Internet, DVD sales were actually affected, because more and more fashionable young people like to pay for on-demand on Netflix, and when they want to watch, they can watch it with a computer, but this power Not enough to change the offline landscape.

"Over at Lions Gate, have you talked to them?"

"Well. There are a few areas overseas that have already finished, and they are also very busy now, but overall, the operation of the ninth district is going smoothly."

"What about splitting the account?"

Liam took out the project income statement, "The copyright part is not easy to develop, and it is a little pity that it is difficult to find a point of value for discussion in the ninth district. Although the follow-up trend is smooth, it is only 30 million short. It can break the box office record of the R-rated film, otherwise, it will be able to hype it in the end.”

"We can't deliberately touch porcelain. It can only be said that the work itself is limited. The ninth district is not liked by female audiences." Lehmann replied casually, and took over the company's preliminary income from the ninth district.

North American theaters took 110.8 million, overseas theaters took 147.5 million, and the producer took 313.7 million, of which Lionsgate took another 29.5 million, deducted 130 million for production expenses, 47 million for publicity, and 107.2 million for Firefly.

Anyway, it is expected that this ticket will bring a profit of no less than 88.5 million US dollars to Lionsgate, and Firefly will be able to reap another 240.75 million in the next three years by relying on the ninth district under the box office split.

It can only be said that such a return did not disappoint Lehmann.

As Jon Feilermei said, I can spend the end of the year in a better mood.

Lehman put the report aside, pondered for a while, and asked, "Is there a plan for the bonus arrangement for the main creator and the distribution team? Those who perform well can calculate the year-end bonus together."

"President Joseph and the financial department have discussed this for a while, and he has a better grasp of these personnel rewards or job transfers," Liam replied. Genius one second to remember 噺バ一Chinese m.x/8/1/z/w.c/o/m/

"Your distribution department will sort it out by yourself, and then hand over the list to Joseph. The various branches of the company should still look at their own income and expenditure." Skip this topic that is not easy to elaborate on~www.novelhall. com~ Lehman said again: "How about Night at the Museum 2?"

"It will be released in mid-January next year, and there will be a base for the first film. The audience should not be small, as long as the quality and jokes are guaranteed."

"It's good that you are in charge of contacting the people from Mubao and Lionsgate." Lehmann sighed inwardly: There will be more production projects next year, and I hope that the performance can be greatly improved again.

2009 was a great year for Mann Media.

The projects that have been confirmed include Museum 2, Twilight 2, Captain America, Thor, I am Legend, and TV series that complement the Marvel worldview can also be put on the agenda.

For example, Hell's Kitchen has always performed well in previous lives. Although the Roaring Squadron is a bit stretched and not eye-catching, at least the director of SHIELD has deepened the character design. Maja Fake is initially known and liked by more audiences. While the movie series is still very small, it is no longer so insignificant.

After all, when Team America is released next year, Agent Carter can also connect to S.H.I.E.L.D. and the sequel to Hell's Kitchen, continuing to deepen the background on the basis of Daredevil...

There are more than 5,000 characters in Marvel, not all characters are suitable for the main universe movie, but it does not mean that they have no development value.

After all, Marvel's strongest **** ability is the ability to expand its popularity beyond everyone's imagination, Lehmann guarantees.

"Museums need high-intensity and large-scale publicity more than District 9, and they must not be slack."

"Don't worry, starting next week, we will change the publicity model and continue to bombard with higher exposure."

"Yeah." Lyman rubbed his brows in affirmation.
