After the factory manager Han went to the bottom of his doubts, the conversation was even more cheerful, and he chatted with Laiman for a long time before ending the meeting.

But what Lehmann didn't know was that the moment he walked into the China Film Building, it spread to the ears of those who were interested.

Inside the Huayi Building.

Liu Tao, the co-general manager of the artist department, received an order from the big boss, Comrade Wang, in the past two days, asking him to coordinate the schedules of his artists. The purpose is to focus on the participating roles of "Pacific Rim".

Yes, whether participating in the investment or not, the artist resources are still quite rich.

Huayi, which has just been listed for a few months, has directly reached the peak of its influence. It has recruited a large number of powerful and famous actors in the circle, and it is full of talents.

This morning, Liu Taogang greeted several internal brokers Shantou, and went to Comrade Lao Wang's office to report his work.

"Everything has been ordered, but who should our Lord push?"

"What advice do you have?"

"Li Bingbing, she is more suitable."

"Well, you take her to do more activities. How to do it? You have to take a fancy to the ideas of Shadow and Firefly. We can try our best."

As a first-tier actress in mainland China, she has experience in Hollywood productions, and is also the top artist in Huayi. In all these aspects, she has the best chance of winning.

"Boss, I heard that there has been an official talk with China Film?"

"Well, tonight there will be a reception for the creator of "Avatar", and there will be there too. When the time comes, I will take you with Li Bingbing. How to get in touch and leave a good impression is up to you."

......

At night, the casual communication made Lehman, who had adapted to this kind of place, still felt a little tired.

Except for China Film, almost all of the powerful entertainment companies in the mainland came. On the contrary, it was those actresses who were dressed up and showed off. Lehmann did not pay much attention. After staying in Hollywood for a long time, this pink attack had no effect on Lehman. He On the contrary, he had a great chat with Comrade Da Wang and Mr. Bernard Yu Dong.

No problem, Director Han also mentioned that in the Chinese funds, Bernard and Huayi Association jointly invested, but they did not occupy the copyright, and participated in the project as a regional co-producer.

The next day, with the vigorous promotion of China Film and theaters around the world, the smooth screening of "Avatar" caused great momentum.

......

In the hotel, Lehmann was chatting with the top of the shoot.

This product has now entered the working state. Holding the script in his hand, he is conceiving the specific imaging effect in his mind. Because it is a co-production, the formulation of the storyboard needs to be more detailed so that the shooting staff can understand.

Sitting on the sofa, he was discussing something with the theater manager in his studio, and Lehmann also made some comments from time to time.

"...Mr. Rust, how do you arrange staffing? How do you manage those Chinese film crews?"

"Don't worry, you can take care of the people on our side, and China Film is responsible for them."

Lehmann's opinion is very simple, separate management, so as to avoid conflicts caused by different shooting habits.

If nothing else, the Hollywood staff are much more lazy, overtime is considered overtime, and they are not necessarily happy. Moreover, the eating habits of the two parties are also different, and the food must also be differentiated. There are always a lot of trivial matters. Everyone is in charge of their own, anyway, when shooting, everyone can reasonably divide the labor and do what they should do well, and the rest doesn't matter.

On this basis, Lehman held several meetings with the China Film Party, and soon set up the crew framework.

However, in this process, the energy that "Avatar" exploded in the mainland still exceeded the expectations of too many people.

In the early morning of January 7th.

The box office after the first day of release was quickly aggregated into the hands of many media people - 35 million in a single day, which directly drove the single-day box office record in the mainland film market. What's even more terrifying is that other films were compressed so that the cumulative box office total was 35 million. Less than 1 million, so that it can be ignored in statistical reports.

Yes, if I really want to explain, it seems that all the cinema audiences in China are watching a movie on this day, and its name is "Avatar".

"With such a performance, "October Siege" is over." Someone in the film section of a news editorial department shook his head, "The decline of over 80% is unbearable."

Although Firefly reached a cooperation deal with Bernard a few days ago and bought out the US distribution rights of the film, but after the release of "Avatar", "October Siege" became a schedule cannon fodder, and there are still profitable ones. May be sentenced to death, but also old and unlucky.

When the news of the mainland and Japan's explosion came back to the United States, it deeply stimulated the studio bosses there.

There is no way, the decline of "Avatar" is small, and there are often zero declines and reverse declines. After 100 million, someone suddenly told them that China and Japan jointly contributed a single-day box office of 8.6 million US dollars. Add exaggeration.

More importantly, the information revealed from it is surprising - the Chinese film market has doubled for several years in a row, and such market potential has exploded since the beginning of the decade, and it is quite a snowball. The big trend, it's really hard to say where the upper limit of "Avatar" is...

But there is one thing that the film media in the U.S. knows. In less than four weeks after the screening, the box office of "Avatar" has approached the 1.5 billion mark, and the suspense is suddenly not that high for breaking the record of "Titanic"~www .novelhall.com~ After all, according to this trend - it has been so many days, 3D shows are still full, and it is hard to get a ticket. It is conceivable how strong the audience's desire to watch movies is. For example, the UK, France, Germany, Italy, China, Japan, South Korea and other regions each contribute 100 million US dollars at the box office seems very likely, especially France, optimistic, 150 million has a great probability.

Based on such an estimate, these places add up to a box office market of at least 700 million. It is not a problem to calculate 600 million in the other 80 places, and North America and Canada have now won 360 million. According to the decline trend, breaking the 600 million is easy, 700 million is not difficult...

In other words, the outbreak of China and Japan directly pushed "Avatar" to the target of more than 2 billion.

What is the concept of 2 billion?

The threshold for the first place, the case that the box office market is destined to be recorded in film history, and the offline market and peripheral development that means more than 6 billion behind the box office mean that there is a gold mine in the film library of Firefly Pictures - don't forget , "Avatar" has a sequel plan.

The same is true. Under the unpredictable fiery results of China Film Metropolis, some people became more and more enthusiastic about the so-called co-production special effects blockbuster "Pacific Rim", and fell into an indescribable fantasy——

Exciting, deeply exciting, the stimulation of 35 million per day, a record that is even more outrageous than the big ship, whoever changes it will have to re-evaluate it.

Lehmann is busier, but the pace of new projects is accelerating...
