Ryan briefly introduced the investment scale and planning blueprint of the entire project.

The hostess did not continue to ask, but quickly changed the subject.

The duration of the entire talk show is not very long, and it is impossible to focus on only one topic.

Although many people are very concerned about this topic.

"Mr. Gosling!"

"As a famous Hollywood director and owner of a film company, do you have any suggestions for the development of Chinese-language films!" the hostess asked an expected topic.

Since the 1990s, Chinese-language films have declined as a whole, and even the Hong Kong films, which were at their peak, have changed drastically.

Compared with the 1970s and 1980s, the difference is not a little bit.

In the past, Chinese-language films continued to conquer the film markets of Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, and Europe.

Now it's time for Hollywood to take over the box office on the other side of the Pacific.

The most worrying thing is that in recent years, Japanese and Korean commercial films have gradually increased, faintly catching up with Chinese-language films.

"Whether it's a Chinese film or a Hollywood film, you have to be clear first."

"That is to have a huge box office market to rely on."

Ryan glanced at the audience, "Take Hollywood as an example. It is precisely because of the support of the North American film market that Hollywood film companies dare to keep trying to make big-budget films."

"Do you think Chinese films should focus on the domestic market right now?" The hostess showed a look of surprise. In the past, domestic experts and scholars all developed abroad.

"Yes." Ryan nodded and said, "Films from any country rely first on the local box office market, and relying too much on the overseas box office market will only bring disaster."

Many people don't agree with Ryan's point of view, after all, the current box office market capacity on the other side of the Pacific Ocean is pitifully small.

But someone below thought of the decline of Xiangjiang Films, and couldn't help but subconsciously nodded.

The main reason for the decline of Xiangjiang movies is because of the loss of the box office market in Wanwan and Nanyang, and relying solely on the local box office market of Xiangjiang cannot support it at all.

Plus, the box office market on the other side of the Pacific was immature, causing a massive brain drain that eventually turned into a slump.

"Then what about the overseas box office market!" The hostess continued to ask immediately.

Overseas box office market!

Ryan smiled and did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "The overseas box office market you mentioned is North America? Or Europe!"

"Or other box office markets!"

"I think many people will directly think of the box office markets in North America and Europe." He added without saying a word.

The hostess said very cooperatively: "It seems that Mr. Gosling knows Chinese movies very well."

Ryan shrugged and said, "Orion Films releases several Chinese-language films every year."

"It's just that the vast majority of Chinese-language films will not be released on a large scale in North America and Europe."

"Can you tell me why!" The hostess was somewhat puzzled.

The audience was even more puzzled.

Since Orion Films releases several Chinese-language films every year, they are not on the large scale of the major box office markets in North America and Europe.

It seems very contradictory.

"Not every film is suitable for mass distribution around the world."

"The box office market for Chinese-language films is mainly concentrated in Southeast Asian countries such as Southeast Asia, South Korea, Japan, and Thailand, as well as the Chinatowns in European and American countries."

Ryan didn't hold back, and said very directly: "So instead of focusing on the North American and European box office markets, it's better to just focus on the Southeast Asian market."

"Moreover, compared to the North American box office market, the European box office market is more inclusive."

To put it bluntly, the main overseas box office markets for Chinese-language films are Southeast Asian countries, followed by Europe, followed by North America, Latin America, and so on.

The North American film market is very exclusive. Not to mention Chinese films, even European films have little room for survival.

The hostess couldn't help admiring. As an entertainment host, she very much agrees with Ryan's point of view.

However, she is very clear that many domestic film companies do not pay much attention to the box office market in Southeast Asian countries.

In addition, domestic film companies have almost no overseas distribution channels, and often sell overseas copyrights of films.

This is very different from Hollywood.

Ryan continued: "The biggest difference between Hollywood and Chinese-language movies is that the box office revenue of a Hollywood movie only accounts for 30% of the total revenue, while the box-office revenue of Chinese-language movies is 100%. Over eighty percent."

"I can give a simple example, the production cost of "Spider-Man" is 1.4 billion US dollars, and the film promotion budget is 75 million US dollars."

"However, you can guess how much income Orion Pictures can bring just for the copyright of the TV adaptation of "Spider-Man"!"

All the people below listened intently, and even couldn't help but guess.

Before the hostess could speak, Ryan said again, "It's $61.2 million."

"In addition, there are about 1.3 billion US dollars in peripheral merchandise sales, and tens of millions of dollars in royalties from copyright licensing, etc."

"I can say very clearly that Orion Films can recover production costs only from the income brought by the above items, and the main income of "Spider-Man" is DVD discs, North American box office, and overseas box office."

Many Hollywood movies rely on DVD discs to make profits, even higher than the box office.

There was another exclamation from the audience.

"US$61.2 million? It's just the income from the copyright of the film and television adaptation."

"I'll go. No wonder the foreign devils are so rich. The copyright of a movie adaptation was sold for 61.2 million US dollars."

"The main profit of Hollywood movies is actually DVD discs!"

"Damn it, I really want to go back and smash those bootleg DVDs."

However, many people shook their heads secretly. This is where Hollywood has an advantage, and Chinese-language movies cannot be compared at all.

Even in Ryan's previous life, the issue of piracy still cannot be completely changed.

After the whole interview, almost Ryan talked about it alone.

During this period, no topics related to political race were involved.

With the interview over, Ryan walked into the lounge for a while before returning to the hotel.

Along the way, Daniel Green looked very nervous, as if he was facing an enemy.

Daniel Green has not let down his vigilance these days, and he even proposed to carry the necessary self-defense weapons.

In this regard, Ryan did not explain too much, but refused to carry self-defense weapons.

There is no need for self-defense weapons in the magic city, let alone safety.

The law and order environment in the Magic City can completely crush Los Angeles.

"Sophia!"

In the evening, I just had dinner at the hotel and went back to the hotel room.

Ryan said with a very serious expression: "I don't care what other films do, but any large-scale commercial film produced by Orion Films must not do this."

Sofia Coppola didn't say much~www.novelbuddy.com~ immediately picked up the phone and called the person in charge of the branch on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Ryan can agree to any kind of publicity and marketing, even gossip hype.

But similar to many big-selling Chinese-language movies, it is absolutely forbidden to sell them by buying a lot of box office on the eve of the movie's release.

In fact, whether it is the box office market across the Pacific Ocean or the North American box office market, it is not uncommon for film crews or distribution companies to secretly buy box office.

However, the North American box office market is very cautious, while the box office market on the other side of the Pacific Ocean is an open unspoken rule.

The problem is, "Spider-Man", as a foreign film, is not suitable for this.

If it is exposed by the media, it will affect the brand image of Orion Films.

What's more, the purpose of Ryan's coming here in person was not for the box office of "Spider-Man", but for the Marvel Studios project.
