Time slips into a new January, May 1.
It's Friday.
In Los Angeles, Simon arrived at the office of danelis studios early in the morning, looking through the box office report of the past box office week, while listening to girl a's report on some of today's work schedule and important issues.
Just in the past box office week from April 24 to April 30, Denise's Easter movie "Truman's world" still held the champion position. It started on April 10. After the first week's $37.69 million and the next week's $28.31 million, in the third week, Truman's world again won $17.82 million, with a total box office of $83.82 million in three weeks.
As the last film of the cooperation between Denise entertainment and Kim Carey, both sides have not been very happy, Denise did not expect this film too much.
Now, the box office performance of the film has obviously exceeded expectations.
With a total box office of 83.82 million US dollars in three weeks and the current box office trend, "Truman's world" can easily surpass 100 million in the future, becoming the second local film of danielis entertainment in 1998.
Even Simon himself was initially expected to make only about $80 million at the local box office.
Anyway, it's a good thing that the box office exceeds expectations.
As for the reaction of Kim Carey and his family, Simon doesn't care. It is also conceivable that the film companies that will cooperate with Kim Carey will basically make a lot of money by taking advantage of small profits, and daenerys entertainment will definitely not accept this kind of cooperation.
Another major film in the Easter season, extreme cold, has just finished its fourth week.
After 30.79 million in the first week, 15.31 million in the second week and 7.72 million in the third week, the box office revenue in the fourth week was 4.15 million US dollars, and the cumulative box office revenue was 57.97 million US dollars after nearly one month's release. There is still about 5 million US dollars of box office potential in the follow-up, which can ensure that the film will break through 60 million domestic market. This trend is completely expected.
Also worth mentioning is Titanic.
Just in the past, it happened to be the 20th box office week of the big ship's domestic release in North America. The data of a single week of the film even still suppressed the release of "extreme cold" in the fourth week. It continued to earn $4.23 million. After breaking the threshold of $600 million in the 18th week, the cumulative box office in North America continued to soar to $611.39 million.
With the arrival of the summer season, the speed of Titanic's withdrawal from the big screen will certainly accelerate. However, it will earn at least 10 million US dollars in the future, pushing the North American data of this phenomenal super blockbuster to more than 620 million.
Unfortunately, Titanic this time can only rank second in the history of North America. Maybe it will be more than the 702 million box office figures of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" three years ago after several remakes in the future. It is unlikely that the global side will catch up with the $1.938 billion of "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice" at present.
What's more, breakthrough films such as super Batman war can be shown again in the future. No one can predict what will happen in the end.
However, on the other hand, the super baton war is a shared benefit between danielis and Warner Brothers, while Titanic belongs to danielis entertainment alone, so it can also be said that it is danielis's most successful film. Even if it's just the box office, the more than 400 million revenue from the release of Titanic in 1998 has directly made daenerys' North American box office share this year easily outstrip other major studios.
Simon wrote a note in the blank of the report, asking the relevant team to study the feasibility of Titanic's Australian film tour and the global tour of ship props as soon as possible. After hearing a report from girl a, he stopped for a moment.
Russia.
Yeltsin and the Russian parliament saw each other for nearly two months. After three rounds of voting, this morning local time, Yeltsin finally passed the acceptance of Sergei Kiriyenko as the new prime minister.
It was expected.
A 36 year old young prime minister with no roots and no bottom is not easy to accept in any way.
It is also doomed that Kiriyenko can not stay in this position for too long.
In contrast, another appointment that Simon is more concerned about, the new director of the Russian federal security service, has been approved long ago.
Noticing the pause of her boss, a girl added: "Russia is facing a very serious economic problem. At present, Russia only owes 4.5 billion rubles a month to civil servants' salaries and pensions, which is about 720 million US dollars according to the official exchange rate of 6.2. With a large amount of money still escaping from Russia, Kiriyenko came to power. Unless he took extreme measures to break the rules, it would be very difficult to solve these problems. He had to step down. He took extreme measures to anger a large number of vested interests, but he still stepped down. "
Simon just nodded a little and thought of one thing. After a pause, he still didn't speak.
Simon originally wanted to ask girl a to tell cersei capital to collect data on the positions of various countries' bonds in the hedging field, because he thought that this year, another hedge fund named long-term capital management company on Wall Street almost burst its positions with hundreds of billions of dollars, which caused a large-scale financial disaster, because of the default of Russian national bonds.
However, this is too obvious.
Or wait and see.
After all, there is a real crisis. The federal government will pay for it, whether it is active or forced, and it was the same in history.
A girl saw her boss's desire to talk and stopped. She waited for a moment, but she didn't get orders, so she continued: "also, boss, Miss Chen sent a piece of information about Korean online games. She said it was part of the boss's explanation, that's it."
Simon raised his eyes to see a girl in front of a pile of folders in the next sign, nodded to show awareness.
Last weekend Simon asked Chen Qing to sort out and prepare some information about role-playing online games for the Chinese market, but he didn't expect nanizi to list South Korea.
A girl glanced at the memo, continued to finish some things, and finally said: "9:30 is the summer film promotion meeting, I'll remind the boss later."
"OK, by the way, take this and show it to Nancy."
Girl a takes over the box office report with comments written by her boss, looks at it, nods, confirms nothing, and turns to leave.
When the female assistant went out, Simon looked at the following table. There were still 10 minutes to go before 9:30, so he picked out the copy Chen Qing sent to him from a pile of documents at hand and opened it to read.
I soon picked up my spirits.
Everyone's energy is limited, so cognition is bound to be limited.
In Simon's memory, the strength of online games in South Korea started from the legendary legend, and until many years later, it is still a game content provider in Asia's major markets, including China. It makes a lot of money through this strong industry. However, of course, all this can not come out of thin air.
Before seeing this information, Simon's limitations on online games in South Korea are roughly after the millennium.
However, this is not the case.
In short, South Korea's video games, from the beginning, have developed an industry trend that is quite different from the mainstream of the world.
As we all know, before the millennium, the mainstream of the world's game industry was stand-alone games.
Of course, South Korea is also the main export place of stand-alone games from North America and Japan. For example, StarCraft, which was once a big fire in South Korea in history, however, in terms of its own development, South Korea has started to point out a technology tree that is inclined to online games for itself since the early 1990s.
And it's directly in favor of MMORPG.
According to the information provided by Chen Qing, four years ago, in 1994, when the Internet in this time and space was just emerging, a graphical MMORPG with the highest number of online users exceeding 10000 appeared in South Korea. It was called "the country of wind", and it was also a Western Fantasy type.
Of course, Simon can easily feel the Japanese style in both the name and the related settings of the Chinese and Western Fantasy continents. He can also guess that this is inspired by some Japanese stand-alone games. However, both the positioning of the game and the background of the story are basically the same as the later mainstream online games in South Korea.
Japan has developed its own comic industry from the American comic culture, while South Korea has developed its online game industry from the Japanese single machine.
This is a digression.
With the population base of South Korea and the number of Internet users in 1994, the number of online users has exceeded 10000, which has been quite successful.
On the other hand, it also proves how small the local online game market in South Korea is. If we want to develop, we must rely on output.
The information in hand is very detailed. There is also a CD attached. Simon put it into the computer and quickly found the electronic documents of the country of the wind. He didn't have time to open the attached client. He just opened some pictures. From the perspective of four years later, it's very rough. However, according to the standard of four years ago, it's equivalent to the image quality of a 32-bit game console, and it's already quite brilliant.
It is also mentioned in the materials that the wind country is developing the second generation. It originally planned to launch an IPO in the second half of last year, but it will launch the second generation in the first half of this year. Because of the sudden outbreak of economic crisis in South Korea last year, the IPO plan failed, and the developer named tdsoft also has problems in its capital chain. In recent months, it has been seeking financing.
Simon opens the electronic file about the second generation of wind country.
Looking at the picture directly, it is as good as the picture quality of legend in memory.
If you look at the financial data, the game's planned budget is 6 billion won. According to the current US dollar exchange rate of about 1800, it's about 3.3 million US dollars, which is six times of the 1 billion won development cost of the first generation of wind country. Because the current game industry in South Korea is not obvious. Even if one generation succeeds, tdsoft still can't raise follow-up funds, At present, most of the employees have been eliminated, and 70% of the project development has been completed, almost stagnating.
Just about to continue watching, girl a knocked on the door to remind her boss that the publicity conference of summer film is about to start.
Simon picked up the thick print and rushed to the next conference room, where he continued to use it.
In May, it's summer vacation.
Apart from some minor films, Denise entertainment will launch a total of 10 key projects this summer. Starting from May 15, they are "secrets of Los Angeles", "rush hour 2", "Jurassic Park 3", "morgue haunted event 2", "youth of song and dance", "Saving Private Ryan", "hangover", "Horse Whisperer", "hero" in chronological order Magic Mike.
One of the heaviest is Jurassic Park 3. According to the plan, this is the end of the dinosaur trilogy. After the completion of this trilogy, the Jurassic series will be suspended for some years. The production budget of the project will eventually reach 150 million US dollars. With the publicity of 70 million US dollars, if the local box office is less than 300 million US dollars, it will be a failure.
The project was completely completed in early April, and the schedule is still the best. On June 5, Simon saw the sample film in advance. The current explosion is very reliable, and he has no worries about the box office.
After the heaviest Jurassic Park 3, the second is rush hour 2, morgue haunted 3 and Saving Private Ryan.
If the box office of these three films is less than $100 million, they will also fail.
Among them, "rush hour 2" and "Saving Private Ryan", Simon's expectation is that the local 200 million starts. In addition, "the morgue haunted event 3" was included in the second priority because last year's success of "evocation 3: Blood Moon" made the universal popularity of the evocation film recover. This "the morgue haunted event 3" is also the end of a trilogy, 150 million should be relatively easy. If you're lucky, with the popularity of last year's "evocation 3: Blood Moon", it's very hopeful that you can hit 200 million in the mainland.
After that, hangover is special.
In history, this film set an R-rated box office record. Simon used the once famous rotten boy Gang as the main creator this time. In order to promote his own Atlantic City Casino, he moved the shooting place from Las Vegas to Atlantic City, and the time was advanced for so many years, so the variables were too big.
The production cost of the film is US $25 million, and the publicity investment has also reached US $25 million, of which 15 million comes from the implantation of Atlantic City and other aspects. The new world film industry, which is responsible for the distribution, has only paid US $10 million. The expectation of the publicity team is that as long as the film can exceed 50 million, it will be successful.
Simon's personal expectation is to break the local billion yuan. Otherwise, it would be a pity to come up with this idea in advance.
In addition, "Los Angeles secret" and "Horse Whisperer" can be regarded as one. They are both created by veteran filmmakers, and they are also relatively less mainstream art oriented films, with box office expectations ranging from 50 million to 100 million.
And then there's youth of song and dance and magic Mike.
These are the two films that cost less to make during the summer season, one of which ended up at $15 million and the other at $7 million.
Simon himself made the decision to put it in the summer file, because the story of "song and dance youth" is more suitable for the summer, and it can not be delayed until next year, so he has to catch up with some time. The latter is Simon's special expectation of film director Steven Soderberg.
In general, the danilisi entertainment film business, which has entered the most powerful track, does not need Simon to worry too much. Throughout the meeting, Simon put more attention on the Korean game industry information in his hands.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

After hearing a report from girl a, he stopped for a moment.Russia.Yeltsin and the Russian parliament saw each other for nearly two months. After three rounds of voting, this morning local time, Yeltsin finally passed the acceptance of Sergei Kiriyenko as the new prime minister.It was expected.A 36 year old young prime minister with no roots and no bottom is not easy to accept in any way.It is also doomed that Kiriyenko can not stay in this position for too long.In contrast, another appointment that Simon is more concerned about, the new director of the Russian federal security service, has been approved long ago.Noticing the pause of her boss, a girl added: "Russia is facing a very serious economic problem. At present, Russia only owes 4.5 billion rubles a month to civil servants' salaries and pensions, which is about 720 million US dollars according to the official exchange rate of 6.2. With a large amount of money still escaping from Russia, Kiriyenko came to power. Unless he took extreme measures to break the rules, it would be very difficult to solve these problems. He had to step down. He took extreme measures to anger a large number of vested interests, but he still stepped down. "Simon just nodded a little and thought of one thing. After a pause, he still didn't speak.Simon originally wanted to ask girl a to tell cersei capital to collect data on the positions of various countries' bonds in the hedging field, because he thought that this year, another hedge fund named long-term capital management company on Wall Street almost burst its positions with hundreds of billions of dollars, which caused a large-scale financial disaster, because of the default of Russian national bonds.However, this is too obvious.Or wait and see.After all, there is a real crisis. The federal government will pay for it, whether it is active or forced, and it was the same in history.A girl saw her boss's desire to talk and stopped. She waited for a moment, but she didn't get orders, so she continued: "also, boss, Miss Chen sent a piece of information about Korean online games. She said it was part of the boss's explanation, that's it."Simon raised his eyes to see a girl in front of a pile of folders in the next sign, nodded to show awareness.Last weekend Simon asked Chen Qing to sort out and prepare some information about role-playing online games for the Chinese market, but he didn't expect nanizi to list South Korea.A girl glanced at the memo, continued to finish some things, and finally said: "9:30 is the summer film promotion meeting, I'll remind the boss later.""OK, by the way, take this and show it to Nancy."Girl a takes over the box office report with comments written by her boss, looks at it, nods, confirms nothing, and turns to leave.When the female assistant went out, Simon looked at the following table. There were still 10 minutes to go before 9:30, so he picked out the copy Chen Qing sent to him from a pile of documents at hand and opened it to read.I soon picked up my spirits.Everyone's energy is limited, so cognition is bound to be limited.In Simon's memory, the strength of online games in South Korea started from the legendary legend, and until many years later, it is still a game content provider in Asia's major markets, including China. It makes a lot of money through this strong industry. However, of course, all this can not come out of thin air.Before seeing this information, Simon's limitations on online games in South Korea are roughly after the millennium.However, this is not the case.In short, South Korea's video games, from the beginning, have developed an industry trend that is quite different from the mainstream of the world.As we all know, before the millennium, the mainstream of the world's game industry was stand-alone games.Of course, South Korea is also the main export place of stand-alone games from North America and Japan. For example, StarCraft, which was once a big fire in South Korea in history, however, in terms of its own development, South Korea has started to point out a technology tree that is inclined to online games for itself since the early 1990s.And it's directly in favor of MMORPG.According to the information provided by Chen Qing, four years ago, in 1994, when the Internet in this time and space was just emerging, a graphical MMORPG with the highest number of online users exceeding 10000 appeared in South Korea. It was called "the country of wind", and it was also a Western Fantasy type.Of course, Simon can easily feel the Japanese style in both the name and the related settings of the Chinese and Western Fantasy continents. He can also guess that this is inspired by some Japanese stand-alone games. However, both the positioning of the game and the background of the story are basically the same as the later mainstream online games in South Korea.Japan has developed its own comic industry from the American comic culture, while South Korea has developed its online game industry from the Japanese single machine.This is a digression.With the population base of South Korea and the number of Internet users in 1994, the number of online users has exceeded 10000, which has been quite successful.On the other hand, it also proves how small the local online game market in South Korea is. If we want to develop, we must rely on output.The information in hand is very detailed. There is also a CD attached. Simon put it into the computer and quickly found the electronic documents of the country of the wind. He didn't have time to open the attached client. He just opened some pictures. From the perspective of four years later, it's very rough. However, according to the standard of four years ago, it's equivalent to the image quality of a 32-bit game console, and it's already quite brilliant.It is also mentioned in the materials that the wind country is developing the second generation. It originally planned to launch an IPO in the second half of last year, but it will launch the second generation in the first half of this year. Because of the sudden outbreak of economic crisis in South Korea last year, the IPO plan failed, and the developer named tdsoft also has problems in its capital chain. In recent months, it has been seeking financing.Simon opens the electronic file about the second generation of wind country.Looking at the picture directly, it is as good as the picture quality of legend in memory.If you look at the financial data, the game's planned budget is 6 billion won. According to the current US dollar exchange rate of about 1800, it's about 3.3 million US dollars, which is six times of the 1 billion won development cost of the first generation of wind country. Because the current game industry in South Korea is not obvious. Even if one generation succeeds, tdsoft still can't raise follow-up funds, At present, most of the employees have been eliminated, and 70% of the project development has been completed, almost stagnating.Just about to continue watching, girl a knocked on the door to remind her boss that the publicity conference of summer film is about to start.Simon picked up the thick print and rushed to the next conference room, where he continued to use it.In May, it's summer vacation.Apart from some minor films, Denise entertainment will launch a total of 10 key projects this summer. Starting from May 15, they are "secrets of Los Angeles", "rush hour 2", "Jurassic Park 3", "morgue haunted event 2", "youth of song and dance", "Saving Private Ryan", "hangover", "Horse Whisperer", "hero" in chronological order Magic Mike.One of the heaviest is Jurassic Park 3. According to the plan, this is the end of the dinosaur trilogy. After the completion of this trilogy, the Jurassic series will be suspended for some years. The production budget of the project will eventually reach 150 million US dollars. With the publicity of 70 million US dollars, if the local box office is less than 300 million US dollars, it will be a failure.The project was completely completed in early April, and the schedule is still the best. On June 5, Simon saw the sample film in advance. The current explosion is very reliable, and he has no worries about the box office.After the heaviest Jurassic Park 3, the second is rush hour 2, morgue haunted 3 and Saving Private Ryan.If the box office of these three films is less than $100 million, they will also fail.Among them, "rush hour 2" and "Saving Private Ryan", Simon's expectation is that the local 200 million starts. In addition, "the morgue haunted event 3" was included in the second priority because last year's success of "evocation 3: Blood Moon" made the universal popularity of the evocation film recover. This "the morgue haunted event 3" is also the end of a trilogy, 150 million should be relatively easy. If you're lucky, with the popularity of last year's "evocation 3: Blood Moon", it's very hopeful that you can hit 200 million in the mainland.After that, hangover is special.In history, this film set an R-rated box office record. Simon used the once famous rotten boy Gang as the main creator this time. In order to promote his own Atlantic City Casino, he moved the shooting place from Las Vegas to Atlantic City, and the time was advanced for so many years, so the variables were too big.The production cost of the film is US $25 million, and the publicity investment has also reached US $25 million, of which 15 million comes from the implantation of Atlantic City and other aspects. The new world film industry, which is responsible for the distribution, has only paid US $10 million. The expectation of the publicity team is that as long as the film can exceed 50 million, it will be successful.Simon's personal expectation is to break the local billion yuan. Otherwise, it would be a pity to come up with this idea in advance.In addition, "Los Angeles secret" and "Horse Whisperer" can be regarded as one. They are both created by veteran filmmakers, and they are also relatively less mainstream art oriented films, with box office expectations ranging from 50 million to 100 million.And then there's youth of song and dance and magic Mike.These are the two films that cost less to make during the summer season, one of which ended up at $15 million and the other at $7 million.Simon himself made the decision to put it in the summer file, because the story of "song and dance youth" is more suitable for the summer, and it can not be delayed until next year, so he has to catch up with some time. The latter is Simon's special expectation of film director Steven Soderberg.In general, the danilisi entertainment film business, which has entered the most powerful track, does not need Simon to worry too much. Throughout the meeting, Simon put more attention on the Korean game industry information in his hands.
