The box office sales of DC movie universe's five consecutive projects have strengthened Denise Entertainment's control over the series.
Terry Semel didn't plan to fight for control here today, but he didn't just accompany Simon to check the production progress of Batman: the rise of the dark knight and suicide squad.
"Don't you think, Simon, that the universe of DC movies can be speeded up?" Terry Semel said at the end of his talk about the hero of suicide squad
It's a question of the same old tune.
Besides the DC movie universe project, danilisi entertainment has also created super blockbusters such as Jurassic Park and Lion King, but Warner is not so lucky. In recent years, its movie business has largely relied on the profits generated by DC movie universe.
This year's two Superman and steel, next year's two Batman: the rise of the dark knight and the suicide squad have made Simon feel a little hasty. In history, Warner only released four big Batman movies ten years before the millennium, starting with Tim Burton's first Batman.
Simon can't agree with Warner's proposal to speed up the universe of DC movies again, and Terry Semel knows Simon can't agree.
It's five o'clock in the afternoon.
Seeing off Terry Semel, Simon didn't leave work as usual, and rushed to the district office to continue to discuss with Amy about the end of the year employee compensation scheme of danielis entertainment.
After the merger of MCA, although there was a big layoff at the beginning, after the expansion in the last two years, the total staff size of the entire danilisi entertainment group, not counting the subsidiary with a shareholding ratio of less than 50%, such as blockbuster, has rapidly expanded to 21000.
With the coming year, the group's revenue and profits continue to reach new highs. Danielis entertainment once again plans a big year-end bonus plan this year. Only for employees below the non core management level, the total bonus scale will reach US $500 million. On average, each employee will get an additional salary reward of up to half a year.
In addition, Amy Pascal, Robert egger, Nancy Brill and other core management pay plans have another calculation, which is naturally more generous.
The average salary of Denise Entertainment's employees is the highest in Hollywood. With the news of the big dividend plan, the resumes received by the recruitment positions of the group's departments have soared several times in a short time.
In Simon's office in district one.
Amy Pascal and Simon are discussing the initial dividend plan of the personnel department, but they can't help thinking about their own affairs.
Starting from March 1987, the initial four-year term to the extended three-year contract, a total of seven years, has witnessed the rise of Denise entertainment group step by step, and Amy herself will get a very terrible return.
Not to mention the past six years, but this year, according to the preliminary statistics of the financial department, even if the employees are given a large amount of cash dividends, the net profit scale of danilisi entertainment group this year will reach a terrible level of $2 billion.
Just at the end of last year, the Jurassic Park brought more than 600 million US dollars of pre tax net income to Denise entertainment in terms of local release, overseas distribution and peripheral sales in 1993. The film, television, games, music, publishing, cinema, retail, theme park and other businesses of the whole group are the powerful locomotive of the film department They are all in a state of prosperity.
Based on a net profit of $2 billion, Amy Pascal can get 5% of the net profit dividend and the equivalent stock future, which means an annual income of up to $200 million.
In the whole world, there is probably no professional manager with a higher salary than her.
Moreover, this is only one year's income in 1993.
Amy's stock awards have not been cashed in the past six years.
Her boss has personally promised that she can cash in her stock award at 30% of the IPO valuation of Denise entertainment. By the end of next year's contract, all the seven-year stock awards will be realized, and Denise entertainment has successfully completed its IPO. Amy feels that she will certainly be able to occupy a very good position in next year's Forbes rich list as a $1 billion rich person.
A billion dollars.
Every time she thought about it, Amy felt like she was in a dream.
The leaders of traditional Hollywood film companies, such as Steve Ross, who has passed away, or Lou wassalman, who retired after selling MCA, have been struggling in Hollywood all their lives and have not been able to accumulate such wealth. At this stage, the executives of the same level as her in Hollywood may not earn as much as her in this year .
It took more than an hour to get a general understanding of the reward schemes of various departments under the collective. Simon remembered one thing and said to Amy, "when cashing in the dividend, please remind us that this money is best used to subscribe for the company's shares. After the IPO, we can definitely get good profits."The internal subscription before the listing is also a convention.
Now almost no one is not optimistic about the IPO prospect of danielis entertainment. The internal subscription price is certainly lower than the issue price. As long as you can get the stock, it will be an additional income directly after the listing.
Amy nodded with a smile and joked, "boss, can I subscribe, too?"
Simon turned his pencil around and said, "as long as you have spare money after paying taxes, of course you can."
Amy needs to pay personal income tax for the stock dividends she cashes next year. According to the scale of her income, it is estimated that it is not enough to drain all the cash in her hands, and it may need to be made up by loans.
Amy, of course, knew her problem. She shrugged regretfully and said, "I don't think I have a chance."
It's really just a joke.
Although there will be a certain amount of shares that can be subscribed by all the executives and employees, Amy has no plan to take advantage of the shares worth millions of dollars at most. After all, there is a certain amount of internal subscription at that time. Instead of taking up all the benefits through loans, it's better to distribute your subscription share to the company's employees, so that you can get more potential benefits.
With this in mind, Simon just inadvertently turned his pen so that Amy noticed a string of pencil letters on the paper in front of him and said curiously, "what's that?"
Simon didn't hide it. He held up the folder and showed it to Amy.
Amy said subconsciously, "westerosian."
"Yes, the Westeros," Simon nodded, flattening the file, and said, "I've been thinking about it lately."
When it comes to the annual bonus plan of danielis entertainment, Amy quickly understands the meaning of Simon.
Over the years, the westero system has risen like a miracle, and now it is at the level of a plutocrat empire. However, at present, this young man is not satisfied. He even plans to build a new economy. All the people in this economy form a class of their own, a class called "westerosian".
Amy couldn't help getting excited at the thought.
Because she is also one of the important creators of this new economy, a typical westero.
"Got it?" Simon looked at Amy's eyes with a smile, asked softly, and then said: "so, this dividend plan is just the beginning. Next, all companies in the westero system will promote higher salary and welfare plans. I want all employees working for westero system to live the best life. Of course, this is only the most basic. The key lies in the construction of cultural cognition in the whole system. I hope that in the future, any member of the westerlow system will be proud of becoming a "westersian". I hope that everyone outside the westerlow system will take becoming a "westersian" as their personal goal. I hope that "westersian" will eventually become a strong existence that can control the world. "
Many days later, Amy kept the word "western" in her mind and Simon's words that day, and became a witness of Simon's words in more distant days.
The week before Christmas is flying by in a more and more festive atmosphere.
From December 10 to December 16, "the lion king" remained strong. The box office decline narrowed to 23% in the fourth week of its release, with revenue of $25.63 million and cumulative box office of $181.29 million, ranking second only to Superman in the summer season.
Mission impossible, which was released in the third week, ranked second in the weekly box office list. The weekly decline also narrowed to 25%, with a revenue of $21.99 million and a cumulative box office of $97.68 million.
The box office of my fair dad, which ranked third in the list, fell to $8.23 million in a single week, down 27%, with a total of $56.22 million.
Clint Eastwood and Kevin Costner's new film "the perfect world" ranked fourth, down 21% in a week, earning $5.39 million and grossing $22.31 million.
The fourth place is basically some old movies before Thanksgiving.
Among them, "gronemo", released by Columbia Pictures and "the lion king" at the same time, has only $1.62 million left at the box office in a single week, ranking seventh on the list.
Schindler's list, which opened on December 10, earned $1.19 million on 25 screens, ranking ninth on the list, with a weekly average of $47600.
December 17, the new week.
in order to avoid the "steel bone" on December 24, North American Theaters gathered together to release seven new films this week, three of which are commercial films with large-scale painting.
Disney's "nuns are crazy 2" can be said to be the most popular one, with 1938 screens.
Warner Bros. produced the comedy "forget your friends when you see sex" starring Jack Lemont, with 1672 screens.MGM produced the Philadelphia story, starring Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington, with 1317 screens.
In the other four small-scale spot films, there is also a film "in the name of my father" by gaomen film company. The feature film starring Daniel Day Lewis has 13 screens.
As the main theme of Disney's end of the year schedule, "nuns are crazy 2" has high hopes.
It's a pity that things don't work out.
"Nun crazy 2" failed to show the potential of the first film in terms of word-of-mouth and box office after it was painted. The blockbuster with a budget of $38 million made only $7.56 million in three days in the first weekend, even less than half of Disney's expectation.
Considering that "steel bone" is the real blockbuster next, the total box office potential of the film in North America is probably only about $30 million, which is not enough for Disney to recover the cost.
Moreover, the overseas box office potential of black comedy is limited, and the North American box office of "sister is crazy 2" has failed, so there will be little profit overseas. Disney's total budget for the production and promotion of this project has reached 55 million US dollars, and now it is doomed to end up in a loss.
Warner Bros' comedy "forget your friends when you see sex" is destined to be just a foil to the end of the year.
On the contrary, MGM's "Philadelphia Story" has become the only one of the new films on Monday with a revenue of more than $10 million over the weekend due to its excellent media reputation and the joining of Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington.
Because of the weak market performance of a number of new films, the benefits of increasing the box office volume after entering the Christmas season almost all fall on several heavyweight films in the Thanksgiving season.
Thus, from December 17 to December 23, "the lion king" continued to occupy the top position in the box office list with an 11% weekly box office decline. In the fifth week of its release, it again earned $28.39 million, with a cumulative box office of $209.68 million, officially breaking the $200 million mark. It also became the second local box office movie in 1993 to break $200 million, and steadily pushed forward to $300 million.
Denise and Paramount's "mission impossible" also fell 16% this week, rebounding to $25.53 million in the fourth week, breaking through the $100 million mark and reaching $123.21 million.
MGM's Philadelphia story came in third with $13.67 million in the first seven days of the week.
Considering the long-term nature of the film's award-winning nature and a budget of $26 million, the first week box office of $13.67 million was also excellent.
Disney's "nuns are crazy 2" earned $11.21 million in the first seven days of the week, ranking fourth, and it is doomed.
My fair dad, starring Robin Williams from Fox pictures, fell the most this week, reaching 25%. The box office rebounded to US $10 million, reaching US $10.32 million, and the cumulative box office rose to US $66.54 million. Considering that there will be a good harvest in the Christmas week next week, the possibility of the film entering the billion yuan club will increase again.
In other new films, Warner Bros.'s forget your friends when you see sex 'earned only $4.61 million in the first week, which is basically the end of the next two weeks.
Although gaomen film's "in the name of my father" has once again been attacked by the traditional print media, the comprehensive score of the media is still as high as 8.6.
Moreover, with six nominations for best film, best director, best actor, best supporting actress and best screenwriter in the new Golden Globe Awards on December 20, the fame of "in the name of my father" has greatly increased. Relying on the skilled publicity strategy of the gaomen film team, the first week of the film has successfully reached 29000 US dollars and earned 380000 US dollars.
It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the "Schindler's list", which is almost a set award season, danelis Entertainment's "Lion King" has also been nominated as an animated film for the best film of musical comedy category in the new Golden Globe Award.

She shrugged regretfully and said, "I don't think I have a chance." It's really just a joke. Although there will be a certain amount of shares that can be subscribed by all the executives and employees, Amy has no plan to take advantage of the shares worth millions of dollars at most. After all, there is a certain amount of internal subscription at that time. Instead of taking up all the benefits through loans, it's better to distribute your subscription share to the company's employees, so that you can get more potential benefits. With this in mind, Simon just inadvertently turned his pen so that Amy noticed a string of pencil letters on the paper in front of him and said curiously, "what's that?" Simon didn't hide it. He held up the folder and showed it to Amy. Amy said subconsciously, "westerosian." "Yes, the Westeros," Simon nodded, flattening the file, and said, "I've been thinking about it lately." When it comes to the annual bonus plan of danielis entertainment, Amy quickly understands the meaning of Simon. Over the years, the westero system has risen like a miracle, and now it is at the level of a plutocrat empire. However, at present, this young man is not satisfied. He even plans to build a new economy. All the people in this economy form a class of their own, a class called "westerosian". Amy couldn't help getting excited at the thought. Because she is also one of the important creators of this new economy, a typical westero. "Got it?" Simon looked at Amy's eyes with a smile, asked softly, and then said: "so, this dividend plan is just the beginning. Next, all companies in the westero system will promote higher salary and welfare plans. I want all employees working for westero system to live the best life. Of course, this is only the most basic. The key lies in the construction of cultural cognition in the whole system. I hope that in the future, any member of the westerlow system will be proud of becoming a "westersian". I hope that everyone outside the westerlow system will take becoming a "westersian" as their personal goal. I hope that "westersian" will eventually become a strong existence that can control the world. " Many days later, Amy kept the word "western" in her mind and Simon's words that day, and became a witness of Simon's words in more distant days. The week before Christmas is flying by in a more and more festive atmosphere. From December 10 to December 16, "the lion king" remained strong. The box office decline narrowed to 23% in the fourth week of its release, with revenue of $25.63 million and cumulative box office of $181.29 million, ranking second only to Superman in the summer season. Mission impossible, which was released in the third week, ranked second in the weekly box office list. The weekly decline also narrowed to 25%, with a revenue of $21.99 million and a cumulative box office of $97.68 million. The box office of my fair dad, which ranked third in the list, fell to $8.23 million in a single week, down 27%, with a total of $56.22 million. Clint Eastwood and Kevin Costner's new film "the perfect world" ranked fourth, down 21% in a week, earning $5.39 million and grossing $22.31 million. The fourth place is basically some old movies before Thanksgiving. Among them, "gronemo", released by Columbia Pictures and "the lion king" at the same time, has only $1.62 million left at the box office in a single week, ranking seventh on the list. Schindler's list, which opened on December 10, earned $1.19 million on 25 screens, ranking ninth on the list, with a weekly average of $47600. December 17, the new week. in order to avoid the "steel bone" on December 24, North American Theaters gathered together to release seven new films this week, three of which are commercial films with large-scale painting. Disney's "nuns are crazy 2" can be said to be the most popular one, with 1938 screens. Warner Bros. produced the comedy "forget your friends when you see sex" starring Jack Lemont, with 1672 screens.MGM produced the Philadelphia story, starring Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington, with 1317 screens. In the other four small-scale spot films, there is also a film "in the name of my father" by gaomen film company. The feature film starring Daniel Day Lewis has 13 screens. As the main theme of Disney's end of the year schedule, "nuns are crazy 2" has high hopes. It's a pity that things don't work out. "Nun crazy 2" failed to show the potential of the first film in terms of word-of-mouth and box office after it was painted. The blockbuster with a budget of $38 million made only $7.56 million in three days in the first weekend, even less than half of Disney's expectation. Considering that "steel bone" is the real blockbuster next, the total box office potential of the film in North America is probably only about $30 million, which is not enough for Disney to recover the cost. Moreover, the overseas box office potential of black comedy is limited, and the North American box office of "sister is crazy 2" has failed, so there will be little profit overseas. Disney's total budget for the production and promotion of this project has reached 55 million US dollars, and now it is doomed to end up in a loss. Warner Bros' comedy "forget your friends when you see sex" is destined to be just a foil to the end of the year. On the contrary, MGM's "Philadelphia Story" has become the only one of the new films on Monday with a revenue of more than $10 million over the weekend due to its excellent media reputation and the joining of Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington. Because of the weak market performance of a number of new films, the benefits of increasing the box office volume after entering the Christmas season almost all fall on several heavyweight films in the Thanksgiving season. Thus, from December 17 to December 23, "the lion king" continued to occupy the top position in the box office list with an 11% weekly box office decline. In the fifth week of its release, it again earned $28.39 million, with a cumulative box office of $209.68 million, officially breaking the $200 million mark. It also became the second local box office movie in 1993 to break $200 million, and steadily pushed forward to $300 million. Denise and Paramount's "mission impossible" also fell 16% this week, rebounding to $25.53 million in the fourth week, breaking through the $100 million mark and reaching $123.21 million. MGM's Philadelphia story came in third with $13.67 million in the first seven days of the week. Considering the long-term nature of the film's award-winning nature and a budget of $26 million, the first week box office of $13.67 million was also excellent. Disney's "nuns are crazy 2" earned $11.21 million in the first seven days of the week, ranking fourth, and it is doomed. My fair dad, starring Robin Williams from Fox pictures, fell the most this week, reaching 25%. The box office rebounded to US $10 million, reaching US $10.32 million, and the cumulative box office rose to US $66.54 million. Considering that there will be a good harvest in the Christmas week next week, the possibility of the film entering the billion yuan club will increase again. In other new films, Warner Bros.'s forget your friends when you see sex 'earned only $4.61 million in the first week, which is basically the end of the next two weeks. Although gaomen film's "in the name of my father" has once again been attacked by the traditional print media, the comprehensive score of the media is still as high as 8.6. Moreover, with six nominations for best film, best director, best actor, best supporting actress and best screenwriter in the new Golden Globe Awards on December 20, the fame of "in the name of my father" has greatly increased. Relying on the skilled publicity strategy of the gaomen film team, the first week of the film has successfully reached 29000 US dollars and earned 380000 US dollars. It is worth mentioning that, in addition to the "Schindler's list", which is almost a set award season, danelis Entertainment's "Lion King" has also been nominated as an animated film for the best film of musical comedy category in the new Golden Globe Award.
