Chen Hao climbed out of the pile of powders of Fan Wenfang and Zhang Ziyi in the morning and went directly to the office building of MGM Film Company. He checked the latest global box office data of "Quick Chase". It has reached US$8.5 billion. In addition to China, the Asian market should also provide at least US$15 million. As for whether it can exceed US$900 million in the end, China, the second largest box office market in Asia.
That's right, it's still 2003. The largest box office market in Asia is still Japan, but it won't take long to get behind, which is just a few years.
Chen Hao called Corinthian, the manager of the Propaganda Department, and asked: Colin, has the specific date for "Quick Chase" been released in China been set?
BOSS has been practiced with Chinese theater dealers. "Quick Chase" will be released at the end of May. It will start for half a month from mid-May. The subsequent promotion of the movie will follow up.Corinthian continued: The publisher is looking for China Film.
It's a pity that even if the box office of "Quick Chase" was sold well in China, the box office of the movie we MGM could only get 13%, which is really a bit pity.Corinthian complained.
We should look at it for the long term. China's future box office potential is still very considerable. If we invest earlier, we will enter the Chinese market one step earlier than other American companies.Chen Hao smiled and said: And it is not impossible to increase the box office share. I have a film company in China. In the future, we plan to put movies released in China, so that domestic companies can also participate in part of the investment. The box office share that can be obtained by co-production can reach 29%, or even more than 30%.
BSS, it's really awesome, far longer than those of us think.Corinthian said with a thumbs up.
Stop flattering, is the box office share in North America paid?Chen Hao asked.
Corinthian smiled and didn't agree at all, and continued: The box office in North America has been paid in succession, about 200 million US dollars. The specific amount will only be calculated by the financial department. As for the overseas box office market, it can also be paid in succession next month.
BOSS, I have to admire your wisdom Ah. The big sale of "Quick Chase" in the global box office market has brought us at least US$400 million in profits, which is the total profits of our company in the past few years.Corinthian sighed.
Haha…MGM Film Company’s development will get better and better in the future.Chen Hao smiled.
That's of course, under the leadership of the boss, I can already foresee that MGM will soon recreate its former glory as one of the eight major Hollywood film companies.Corinthian continued to flatter.
Chen Hao said with a righteous expression: What do you think of Howard?
When Corinthian heard Chen Hao mention Howard, he was guessing that the boss was not trying to promote Howard. He turned his head and said calmly: BOSS, I have no personal opinion on Howard, but for consideration of the company's development, I think it is necessary for me to put forward my own opinions.
You just say it.Chen Hao sat on the boss's chair and looked as usual.
Not to mention the distance, let’s talk about the "Wind Whisperer" released last year. This was completely caused by Howard. He believed in the Hong Kong director, but in the end, our company suffered heavy losses and directly entered the auction process. If it weren’t for your appearance of the boss, we would have been afraid that they would all become unemployed vagrants.
In my opinion, Howard is barely competent as department manager. If he wants to go further, he does not have the ability.Corinthian carefully observed the expression on Chen Hao's face.
As you say, who among these department managers is suitable to go further?Chen Hao asked with a smile.
Of course, Corinthian wanted to talk about himself, and he knew that if he became CEO, that is, the executive president, a lot of department managers would definitely not be convinced, so he could only retreat and say secondly: I think Miss Alamuddin is very suitable for the position of executive president.
Yes, beyond my expectations, I didn't expect you to recommend Aimo. Don't you know that she is studying law major and is not proficient in the film industry.Chen Hao said.
Of course I know this, so I think Miss Alamudin still needs someone to assist her.This is Corinthian's true thought.
So you want to be the vice president?Chen Hao thought through people's hearts.
I don't know if the boss can give me this opportunity.It's up to this point, Corinthian is not hiding it.
Howard proposed a new film investment project at yesterday's celebration banquet. Since you want to compete for the position of vice president, you will never have any performance at all, right?Chen Hao asked.
Don't worry about this, I'm certainly prepared. Moreover, the movie projects I prepared for the company are much better than those prepared by Howard, and the investment value is much higher. BOSS, wait a moment, and I'll bring you the script.Corinthian came back shortly after leaving Chen Hao's office, holding a stack of paper in his hand.
BOSS, this is the new project our company prepares, which is definitely much better than Howard's "Dawn of the Living Dead".Corinthian put the script on Chen Hao's desk and said confidently.
Chen Hao picked up the script and saw that the name on the cover was a bit strange. He came tonight, and it looked like the name of a romantic romance film.
Continuing to read the script, Corinthian briefly introduced: This script has been in Hollywood for more than ten years and has been in the script library of many film companies. The screenwriters of that year hope to become famous in Hollywood with this script. Unexpectedly, more than ten years have passed, no company is willing to invest in the shooting. I can say this is our opportunity.
Chen Hao nodded, and Corinthian continued: I think this script is very interesting. It is about Superman, not a traditional Superman, but a Superman with various shortcomings. It will definitely be interesting when filmed.
This script has been circulated in many film companies, so it is not difficult for Corinthian to find a complete script to put it on Chen Hao's desk.
Seeing Chen Hao reading the script carefully, Corinthian stopped talking and quietly waited for Chen Hao's decision. After all, the highest decision-maker of MGM Film Company is Chen Hao, who is just a department manager. He is still very clear about this. If he wants to have more rights in MGM Film Company, he has to look at the young but already in charge of MGM.
That's right, it's still 2003. The largest box office market in Asia is still Japan, but it won't take long to get behind, which is just a few years.
