Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    A good movie and a good reputation have made "Avatar" a huge success since its release.

    Someone was originally laughing, but Cameron no longer had confidence. He did not follow the rules of blockbusters and premiere at 12 o'clock on Friday night, but put it on Monday at 12 o'clock on the night.

    As a result, the dazzling results of "Avatar" made their faces swollen.

    On the first day, the global box office reached 1. There was a lot of discussion on the Internet, almost overwhelming all news.

    And the investors and the theaters that screened it naturally made a lot of money as a result.

    With a box office of US$970 million in the first week, excluding box office share, taxes, etc., 2 Century Fox can get at least US$300 million, and their production cost is only US$230 million.

    This means that not only did they get their money back in the first week, but they also made a net profit of US$70,000!

    Don¡¯t look at a movie that can easily make two to three hundred million or three to five hundred million US dollars at the box office. In fact, a blockbuster movie with a box office profit of US$7 is considered pretty good!  More blockbusters even lose money when they are screened. In the end, they rely on making money from peripheral rights such as DVDs to be considered profitable.

    ??Now in just the first week, 2 Century Fox has already made 70,000, and every day from now on will be pure profit. Why don't they be happy?

    Today¡¯s most conservative estimates suggest that the global box office of ¡°Avatar¡± will exceed US$200 million. Calculated, 2 Century Fox¡¯s profits will definitely exceed US$300 million!  Coupled with peripheral rights and interests, etc., the profit should be at least between 600 million US dollars.

    So.  After the first week's box office results came out, 2 Century Fox directly sent Cameron a cash check of US$50,000 as a reward for his hard work.

    This is just a reward, Cameron¡¯s director and producer¡¯s share.  Then it will have to be settled slowly.

    Of course, there is also a reason for 2nd Century Fox to repair the relationship.

    After all, when Cameron was running for the number of screens for "Avatar" before, 2 Century Fox didn't do much to help, and generally was not very optimistic about "Avatar".

    The results now prove that "Avatar" is a super money-attracting tool, and Cameron is still the "King of the Movie World."  For the future "Avatar" trilogy, in order to have the title of the world's number one box office record, 2 Century Fox will of course spend a lot of money to express its apology.

    Cameron naturally likes money, and he also knows what 2 Century Fox means, so he naturally accepts it.

    But at the same time, he also lamented that Xiao Qi was not only unmatched in his talent in finance, but also had an outstanding vision in the film industry.

    ¡°You only have to look at the $10,000 he spent to buy out the rights to the Kiwi Huaguo Cinema Line to know what a bargain this was.

    Based on the collected information.  In one week, the box office of the Kiwi Cinema Line exceeded US$40,000, accounting for 70% of the box office of "Avatar" in Chinese theaters during the same period.

    The main reason is of course that 3D and IMAX screens of Huaguo Cinema are in the Kiwi Cinema Line. Of course, the largest part of the revenue goes to them.

    Thinking about it, they bought out the copyright for US$10,000, which doubled their profits in the first week, which is even more exaggerated than 2 Century Fox.

    Similarly, their reaction in the future can last as long as two or three months, and this profit may exceed 200 million US dollars!

    Before the release of "Avatar", who would have thought that the Kiwi Cinema Line would have so much revenue in China?  At the time, 2 Century Fox thought that the $10,000 copyright fee was a good deal!

    This is just the Kiwi Huaguo Cinema Line.  Because of its full support for "Avatar", Kiwi's North American and European theaters also had frighteningly high attendance rates during this week.

    According to statistics from a research company, if the box office of "Avatar" can exceed 200 million US dollars.  This time, the global theater chain's revenue from "Avatar" is at least more than 1.2 billion US dollars, and at least one-third of this belongs to the Kiwi theater chain.

    A movie can earn 400 million U.S. dollars, which really makes people feel that the movie money is so profitable!

    ¡°But others are not envious of visiting the Kiwi Cinema Line.

    ¡°Because firstly, it gave ¡°Avatar¡± the greatest support for filming, and secondly, they have the most 3D and IMAX screens in the world. They are the most prepared, and of course they earn the most.

    "Avatar" is making great progress.  The U.S. Department of Commerce, the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, and the Nasdaq Exchange jointly issued a communiqu¨¦. Fairyland's acquisition of Disney's business activities complied with U.S. laws and regulations, and the privatization plan has been approved by 9% of minority shareholders.  Agree, so it is allowed that from now on, the Fairy Company will officially implement Disney'sPrivatization and delisting.

    This announcement caused a strong response all over the world, and the Chinese people were celebrating it like a holiday. Major newspapers praised Xiao Qi's power.

    The Japanese media is a bit sour, because from now on, among the six giants in Hollywood, they are not only an Asian company, but also a more powerful Fairy Company.

    Moreover, Disney is much larger in terms of profitability and influence than Columbia and MGM, especially it also owns Disneyland, one of the three major theme parks in the world, which is something that no child can resist.  Paradise, with this, you have a treasure that will never be exhausted!

    Since the government announcement, Disney has officially begun various privatization and delisting efforts.

    From a legal sense, Fairy Company is not the sole owner of Disney, but in fact, Disney is already Xiao Qi¡¯s private property.

    So, Disney¡¯s management directly gave several big gifts to fans.

    "Disney has reached an agreement with Marvel to launch at least ten hero movies in the next five years, including Thor, Captain America, Ant-Man, Black Panther, Hawkeye, The Flash, The Avengers, etc.  The heroes and team will appear on the big screen!¡±

    ¡°Disney Pictures has reached a preliminary agreement with director James Cameron, who will direct a trilogy of youth science fiction action movies, with a total initial budget of US$500 million!¡±

    "Disneyland has been actively negotiating with China and plans to open four Disney theme parks in China in the next ten years, so that fans in the East can better experience Disney's animation culture!"

    As soon as such news was released, it spread all over the world, second only to the recent popularity of "Avatar".

    Comic fans are naturally excited and running to tell each other.

    Seeing characters such as "Spider-Man", "Superman", "Fantastic Four", "Iron Man" and so on being put on the screen, but more and better heroes are still far away, which makes comic fans  I felt indescribably anxious.

    Having grown up watching these comics, who wouldn¡¯t want their idols to appear on the big screen?

    But before, due to various technologies, there was no way to make live-action movies of these comic characters, and Marvel didn¡¯t have that much power, spending hundreds of millions of dollars to shoot these movies.

    Now, with the investment of a super rich man like Xiao Qi, these heroes can finally meet everyone on the big screen as soon as possible. Just thinking about it makes me feel happy.

    If the first news is good news to many comic book fans, then the second news will cause even greater waves among movie fans around the world.

    After "Titanic", Cameron almost stopped making movies. Everyone thought he had entered semi-retirement. Unexpectedly, suddenly such a "Avatar" came out, making everyone interested in it.  The movie king is full of expectations again.

    It's just that Cameron's efficiency is too low. He only filmed one "Avatar" in one year, and he doesn't know if he will have to wait ten years for the next one.

    Now that Disney and Cameron have reached an agreement, since it is a trilogy, one can be released in two or three years at most, so the wait won¡¯t be too long!

    As for the question of whether the film is good or not, would it be bad if the script impressed Cameron?  How could Cameron destroy his own brand?  !

    The third piece of good news is more targeted. Of course, most of the people who are happy are only Chinese people.

    There were only five Disney parks in total before, two in the United States, one in Japan, one in Paris, and one in Hong Kong.

    Leaving aside other places, if fans in China want to go to Disneyland, they have to go to Hong Kong. This consumes a lot of energy, money and time, and it feels like a waste of people and money.

    And the reception capacity of Hong Kong Disneyland is too small. It is only 126 hectares, which is basically only one percent of the size of Disneyland in Florida. The overcrowded Disneyland makes many people feel unhappy when they go there.

    Now that four Disney parks are being built in China at one go, Disney fans in China are in luck. And although there are four, China has a population of 1.5 billion and can completely digest them!

    Thinking about being able to go to Disneyland every once in a while, the satisfaction in the hearts of Chinese fans cannot be mentioned!  (To be continued.)
