MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 210

Seeing that the two people in front of them agreed, the middle-aged investigator quickly took out a booklet. First, he learned about the ages of the two people in front of him and made a record.

This is where the formal questioning begins.

"May I ask what level of speed and passion do you think can be achieved in commercial films?"

In layman's terms, there are generally four levels of ABCD.

However, when the audience feels that a movie is too bad and D is not enough to describe it, they will give an evaluation of the lower limit of E-level.

Same thing.

When the audience feels that a movie has given them an unexpected surprise, they will give the movie an S rating.

But in general, there are not many movies that can be rated as S-level masterpieces.

Steve Kevin's films, also known as Batman The Dark Knight and The Matrix, are barely S-rank.

The man who was asked, immediately responded:

"A-level, this is definitely an A-level, a film directed by Steve Kevin, still as good as ever."

"I knew it was right to watch a movie directed by Kevin, and most importantly, I could draw a lottery with movie tickets."

Having said that, the man took out his and his girlfriend's movie tickets from his pocket and waved it, indicating that he was looking forward to winning the lottery.

"Would you recommend it to a friend or family member?"

The investigator continued to ask.

"Of course, I'd love to recommend it to my friends, but family members..."

The man hesitated for a moment. Obviously, for Fast and Furious, he prefers to recommend it to his friends, rather than recommending it to his family.

Generally speaking, the ones that can be recommended to family members are actually more inclined to family movies.

The Fast and the Furious is obviously not a family movie.

Kevin also added a slight yellow storm element.

However, it is only a slight adjustment, not much. Even so, the rating has been put on the R level, that is, it is recommended for people over 17 to watch.

Of course, this was what Kevin expected.

An action crime movie, is it for children?

This is not the audience of this movie in the first place, and if you give up, you will give up.

Although family-friendly movies have the largest market, they are also the subjects that are most likely to get good grades.

However, young people are actually the biggest main force in the film market.

To be able to win this part of the audience is enough to achieve a beautiful result.

･･･

Time flickered to noon the next day.

Kevin shook his head with a bit of a hangover headache, and arrived at the company safely under the **** of the bodyguards.

These eight bodyguards had to take a salary of two million dollars a year from Kevin, and the content was a super-demanding contract that included a series of content such as blocking guns and killing people.

Of course, not a killer.

The premise is that all means can be taken to protect Kevin's safety.

When something went wrong, a team of top lawyers hired by Kevin came to extricate himself from the crime. He blocked the gun and died, and Kevin directly raised his family.

In this kind of top treatment, plus protective measures, blocking the gun is not necessarily dead.

These bodyguards are still willing to work hard for Kevin.

With such a terrifying wealth, Kevin naturally wouldn't save this little money and put himself in danger.

Shootout America, Freedom Every Day is no joke.

When Kevin was sitting in the car, he could often see some black people pulling in some people passing by the alley.

As for the consequences, the male has a high probability of losing money.

Women are losing money and losing their looks.

Needless to say, gunshots are often heard.

To this end, Kevin has added bulletproof measures to all his travel cars.

to ensure your own safety.

Chapter 310 The Next Step Business Plan and Fast First Day Box Office

Going straight to his office, Kevin lay on his side on the sofa, closing his eyes and resting.

In these twenty days, he basically participated in the promotion of Fast and Furious.

From TV shows, to helping each other out like Lucas.

It's been a lot of work, and it's finally time to get the reward.

However, Kevin knows that the results of Fast and Furious cannot surpass that of Harry Potter.

Family-friendly movies are not comparable to ordinary movies.

However, the long-term profitability of Fast and Furious is terrible.

Moreover, as a movie with an urban background, it can be shot at almost zero cost. It can be said that the box office that falls is pure profit.

Although the box office looks less scary than Harry Potter.

But the real profit situation is not too bad.

After all, the cost compression is too low, and the cost has been recovered from the beginning.

Of course, not only can't surpass Harry Potter, but also can't surpass the Star Wars prequels.

The premiere on May 19, coupled with the fame of Star Wars, directly grabbed most of the films of the same period, and then the Star Wars prequels directly won the first-day box office results of 65 million US dollars.

Although not as good as Harry Potter's first day results.

But it was also able to rank in the top ten of the box office charts on the first day.

In all the schedules this year, even Kevin has no confidence that any movie can surpass this achievement of Star Wars Prequel.

It can be expected that this year's box office champion has been pre-booked by Star Wars.

But Kevin has never cared about this false name.

What he wants is actual profit.

At present, all kinds of messy profits of Chenxi Film Company add up, and the company already has nearly one billion US dollars in cash flow on its books.

And there is a steady stream of various copyrights, even if Kevin does nothing, he will earn more than 100 million US dollars in revenue every year.

Of course, it would be a waste to leave it like this.

After Kevin is ready to wait for Fast and Furious to finish his work, he will start various investments, the most important of which is the construction of theme parks.

In the United States, Kevin is not prepared to hand over the authorization of the Hogwarts theme park to others, he is prepared to enjoy the profits alone.

Preliminary estimates are that two or three more Hogwarts theme parks will be built.

There is no way, Hogwarts is so hot that in just half a year, it has made a profit of 30 million US dollars for Kevin.

That's it, it's not the limit.

Because of the Hogwarts theme park, it was more popular than Kevin expected.

It operates at full capacity almost every day, but unfortunately the reception volume is too low to fully utilize the power of this IP.

Kevin is already working on a new Hogwarts theme park.

But this time, he wants someone else to come to the door.

The location of the Hogwarts theme park has a huge impact on the economy of any place. He asked the major states in the United States to take the initiative to invite him.

At that time, he will choose two or three more to build this theme park.

Take the initiative to deliver to the door, and invite others, he prefers to be invited, so that he can take the initiative.

Crunch!

Dawson knocked on the door, and after getting Kevin's permission, he pushed open the door and walked in.

Entering together, there is also Zhang Yimou, who is the assistant director.

After finishing Fast and Furious, Zhang Yimou, accompanied Tsui Hark and Zach Snyder, and learned about how they filmed.

Crazy learning all kinds of shooting knowledge, as well as Hollywood's cognition of movies.

It was also in the past few days that everything was done, and post-production started, and he temporarily entered a short vacation.

Zhang Yimou also told Kevin that he already had some ideas. He would return to the mainland in a few days, and after preparing the script and some key members of the crew, he would bring people to the United States to start filming.

If the goal is to directly specify the summer vacation of the year.

Theoretically speaking, in fact, the summer holidays are generally the exclusive slots of big film companies. Even if a small film company is forcibly released in the summer season, it will be difficult to obtain enough films and a good date.

As for Chenxi Film Company, if it is purely based on its own size, it is actually a medium-sized and large-scale film company.

Compared with MGM, Warner, etc.

But helpless Chenxi Film Company, there is Steve Kevin.

This is different.

With Steve Kevin here, Chenxi Films is naturally overestimated, and is directly regarded as a top film company, qualified to compete with big film companies.

Therefore, even if it is a film by a cutting-edge director, under the operation of Chenxi Film, it can also enter the summer file.

Of course, don't expect too much on the layout.

With good data and high attendance, cinemas will naturally increase their schedules according to the contract.

If the data is not good, then it may not even be released for half a month, and it will be drawn in a few days.

Dawson looked at Kevin and said directly:

"The data for the first day of Fast and Furious has come out."

"Put it there."

Kevin lowered his head, rubbed himself, and motioned Dawson to put the data on the table.

From Dawson's reaction, Kevin knew that the box office of Fast and Furious seemed to have no surprises.

Then there is a high probability of a first-day box office result of 30 to 50 million US dollars.

However, Kevin was also satisfied with this achievement.

After all, the production cost of $120 million has been recovered through sponsors.

Putting this at the box office is equivalent to saying that the movie has not yet been released, and it has a box office of 240 million US dollars.

Most of them are purely earned, which is why Kevin has repeatedly emphasized that the data of some movies is not just as simple as the box office.

Fast and Furious, it can add more than 200 million US dollars at the box office on top of its total box office in the future. This is its real achievement.

Dawson nodded, put down the data, and turned to leave.

In fact, this kind of data sending thing does not need him anymore.

However, in order to show his status as the number one general in Kevin's hands, he chose to do some things himself, including the filming for Kevin himself and sending data.

There are only two people in the office.

Kevin then picked up the data in his hand and looked at it.

Zhang Yimou on the side said curiously:

"Kevin, how much was the movie's first-day box office?"

During these times of getting along, Zhang Yimou also learned that Kevin is actually a very easy-going person in daily life, and when he gets along, he is more or less like a friend.

"52 million US dollars, but the reputation is not bad, the overall results should not be too bad."

Leaving the data in his hands, Kevin said casually.
