King of Hollywood Chapter 165: A miracle box office

Chapter 165 The Miracle Box Office

The little fact of arranging Ayumi Hamasaki to study in Los Angeles is insignificant. Her dim sum machine-well, the same is possible-Adrian still has a lot to do. It was already mid-August, and the early stage of "Shakespeare in Love" was almost ready. After arranging the things to be done, he also took Gwyneth and Blanchett to England.

It’s easier said than done. Although there are not many of these things, it takes a lot of effort to sort out. For example, in the summer vacation, various film companies have launched a lot of productions that can be regarded as good, and also earned a lot of box office, and DreamWorks and Bosworth co-produced, starring Harrison Ford, crazy shooting politics fǔFart's Air Force One is at the forefront. For Americans with unprecedented expansion in confidence over the past few years, it is undoubtedly pleasant for the President to fight against terrorists on his own landline.

Since Adrian found Spielberg and invited him to direct and produce "Jurassic Park", DreamWorks is destined to stand aside with the media. After all, everyone is ambitious and wants to be part of the film industry. New company for big cakes. It’s just that they didn’t realize that they were put in front by the media. That’s why, even though the box office of “Sky One” was pretty good, Adrian took it out and shared it with DreamWorks. Choosing to cooperate with DreamWorks, Spielberg is now stepping up the production system. Although the production of "Saving Private Ryan" has been delayed until now, it is expected that it will be released next summer at the latest.

"It's just a little bit of interest," Adrian doesn't care about this. For an already successful person, how to share is the most important thing. "This summer's "Titanic" is enough."

Yes, although various film companies have launched good movies in the summer vacation, and they have won a lot of box office, they are still so small in front of the behemoth "Titanic", just like the big ship set sail in the movie The comparison chart at that time is the same. Except for the week when there is a little insufficient publicity due to a powerful hit and the third week of falling after suddenly climbing to the peak, it has been released for almost two months so far. "Titanic" week and week all occupy the North American box office list.

And according to the current hot situation, I am afraid that this situation will continue to be maintained. Although the kind of team that has been waiting for a long time does not appear to be unable to buy a movie ticket, but every weekend, all over the United States Outside the large theaters, there will still be a long queue for buying tickets. The North American box office has even rocketed past the 400 million box office mark, as is the overseas box office. If it is not slightly delayed in North America, it may be nearly 500 million.

So, the total box office in the world has passed 800 million. This is an absolutely shocking number. If inflation is not counted, the highest box office in the world is only 600 million. "Titanic" easily passed this number, and With the current hot trend, maybe it will break through the billion gods, which is terrible. What kind of heads does Cameron and Adrian have?

Hollywood film companies may beat their feet or gritt their teeth or envy, and Cameron will not say it. Everyone knows that this guy is a madman and a tyrant. As long as he shoots "Terminator 2" and "True Lies", he can burn it. 100 million, it is understandable to burn nearly 300 million US dollars to make a movie, but Adrian is amazing.

Although the name of Director Miracle is already known, and although everyone admits his unique vision, his time in this circle is relatively short. Cameron was amazing, but he also spent a few years in the circle to get investment to shoot "Terminator", and then it took another 1a for more than ten years to have its current status. But Adrian has made a lot of success since the beginning of the film, but in just 7 years, it has hardly failed, and the movies related to him have basically achieved good results. One after another actors and directors have He became famous or fulfilled his wish.

In addition, he also established his own media company with his friends. Up to now, he is already a newcomer in Hollywood and one of the most potential media groups. Now he even takes out his brows without frowning. Nearly 300 million US dollars let Cameron use it to make movies. God, even the seven major companies dare not be so generous and bold. What's more frustrating is that he actually succeeded again. He actually succeeded again. This large-scale production that has burned out has broken the record to become the world's most popular movie, and it is still rising, making those who want to watch his jokes. People seem to be slapped **** their faces, hell, how did he do it?

Among these film companies, only Century Fox is snickering. They took charge of the work and won the pg-13 level. The travel expenses are all tens of millions, which is too good to make. But they also have some pity in their hearts, if they can join the investment, they can make more than that. But then again, the 200 million investment of Adrian was directly taken out of the Throne of the Immortals. Only Wancai was added later. Even if someone wants to invest, he will refuse it if it is not bad.

In short, in the summer vacation of 1997, no movie can straighten up in front of "Titanic", even the critics in Europe who are eager to pick out, in front of this huge and still increasing box office Can only give up this plan. But for someone, this is nothing.

"Wait until it is doubled." Adrian said so lightly after knowing that "Titanic" global box office broke through 800 million. Claude, who was drinking on the left, almost squirted out, and Laffern on the right hand Shimmer almost dropped his eyes to the ground, and even Charliez, who was used to recording the main points of the meeting and was used to his style, could not help raising his eyebrows.

But no one questioned his statement. After the unprecedented success of Titanic, no matter what Adrian said, they would probably believe it-at least in this movie. Therefore, the company did not stop the promotion work for a moment at his command.

"It's still early, but I specifically chose the summer vacation file." Looking at the data, Adrian said to himself.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that he has written ten checks for Cameron so far, each of which is ten thousand. Originally, he planned to wait until the direct throne of the Immortal Throne opened a hundred million later, and then slowly appreciate Cameron's shocked face to see if he opened his mouth like a goose egg as described in the work.

Because Cameron’s studio is currently low in morale, Adrian also wrote a cheque for Zhang Wan to encourage his employees, so he simply wrote a cheque.

"Thank you very much for your emotions, Ed, but if you can, please give it one time at a time?" Cameron was crying and laughing because of a snowy cheque, but it was not good to show. To know that he had voluntarily given up his salary and dividends at the beginning, Adrian was willing to pay dividends, so he had no choice but to speak quietly on the phone.

"You might as well guess, can I drown you with a check." Adrian replied with a smile.

"...Okay, can I use a credit card? There will be a lot of discounts." After a long silence, Cameron said so, and then changed to Adrian.

In addition to this, there are also many things on the record company side. The production of Britney’s v album and Christina’s theme song are all he has to ask. He has prepared for so many years and will be successful anyway. . With the acquisition and integration of Claude, and the promotion of Adrian, the new songs and new combinations have achieved fairly good results, and the record companies under the media also have a foothold in the industry.

Even so, it can only be regarded as a record company between first-class and second-rate record companies, and it is not far away from those top record companies. Although Adrian also has a strategic layout, his familiarity with music is not as good as movies, TV and the Internet, etc., so the arrangements in this area are at the end, and if you want to implement it, you have to wait a few years. So during this time, if you want to progress one step further, you have to rely on some other means, such as the blockbuster Britney and Christina.

Although the newcomers or new groups that were launched before are not particularly popular, they also have a good popularity among teenagers, and the company has accumulated considerable experience. This time coupled with Eric Hutton’s full play, and Adrian points out from the memory, “reproduces” Britney’s glory at least with certainty.

Another thing is that when I go to the UK, because I want to start shooting two movies at the same time, although there are people who are very convenient to fly, the time in Los Angeles will become very small. Therefore, how to schedule dating with V people is also an important thing. It cannot be neglected and it should be as fair as possible. Fortunately, Charlize is here. It seems very troublesome, but in fact it is relatively simple to solve.

"Because I feel that I can get a deeper understanding of their personalities based on these." Charliez replied when Adrian asked why he showed such great enthusiasm. Then she smiled slightly: "So I can think Put them out in a targeted way, and then monopolize you."

Adrian couldn’t help laughing, and responded by pressing Charlize onto the thick floor glass in the office and repaired it.

However, these are not the most important things. After entering August, Adrian has been waiting for a news. What he should do is almost the same. He still has no intention of leaving until he hears the news-already Steve Jobs, who returned to Apple, announced that he was once again on Apple Netbsp; but this time is not the same as last time. The last time Jobs served as Apple ce, this IT company that pioneered the personal computer was booming, and this time Apple is already on the edge of the cliff, and not long ago, Apple's stock plunged again due to a wrong strategy. But it is precisely because of this plunge that the original Ce Gil Amelio finally left in dismay, and then Jobs, who served as an adviser to the board of directors, took over, as for this one of which is greasy...

Many people are not optimistic about this genius or madman who founded Apple and was swept away. Some IT magazines also ridiculed that "even Jobs can’t save Apple", but Adrian knows that he got it from Jobs and ī The total amount of apples that will be absorbed will start to increase in value in the last year at most. In the future, it will probably continue to be diluted, but as long as it is still in the hands after five years, it is also an amazing wealth.

There are almost 18 apples from Jobs. Of course, this is not held by Jobs, but it was obtained through media injection of 150 million.

Almost three weeks ago, Jobs came to visit Adrian’s office, and after a few moments of greeting, he started to discuss the topic: pulling investment. Adrian had said at the White House's regular dinner that he was optimistic about returning to Apple's Jobs and hinted that if there were conditions that could impress him, he might be able to invest in it, so Jobs is now looking for it.

But it didn’t take long for Adrian to be a little absent-minded. Those who talked about Jobs talked about things that had been heard many times before, and repeated listening would inevitably make people feel tired. This kind of emotion shows that after coming out, Jobston became slightly unhappy.

"Are you listening, Ed?" he asked suddenly.

"Almost," Adrian nodded lazily, but with a smile, there was no lightness in his eyes, "Well, tell me, how much money do you need, Steve."

"Although there are 100 million assets in the financial statements, there is not much liquidity, there is probably a gap of about 150 million." Steve Jobs replied hardly for a person like him who is proud and narcissistic. The attitude shown by Adrian is really not friendly, so there is no room for turning around.

"150 million?" Adrian thought over his head, and agreed without waiting for the other party to speak again: "Okay, no problem, I can make this funding."

"Really?" Jobs raised an eyebrow, some could not believe it.

"Really," Adrian nodded, "but not my capital, but my company's capital, and there is a condition."

Jobs frowned, but he still made a gesture of invitation.

"It's very simple," Adrian smiled slightly, "I want you to be Apple's netbsp; "Me? "Jobs was slightly surprised, and the eyes behind the lens flickered suddenly, "How is it possible, to know that Amelio is now..."

"Then oust him and step out those who might obstruct you," Adrian said bluntly. "It's not Apple that deserves my investment, but Steve, who can be said in Apple. Husband? Jobs"

Jobs finally moved. He flattered him a lot, but flattering like this was the first time. I have to say, this feeling... quite pleasant.

"Should I say I am honored?" he asked after moving his fingers together.

"No, I am honored that not everyone will witness the birth of a miracle." The smile of Adrian has not changed, "Get rid of those enemies, and then lead Apple out of the trough to climb higher peaks, where If you fall, just get up where you are, don’t you?"

After he paused, he said again: "Those people at Pixar still miss you very much. Although you tried to force them to give up their options, John always said that even if the funds are tight, you will animate them. The funds needed are responsive. Although I dug them, Pixar will not have today without your support. So, I know, I believe, you deserve my investment."

"Hah, this is... really moving." Jobs took a deep breath, even with his arrogant style, he couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"And you can rest assured," Adrian continued, "We will not compete with you for Apple’s control, as long as you are in that position for a day, we will fully support you for a day."

"So," Steve Jobs took a deep breath, and opened the disguise neatly, "What the **** do you want?"

"Money, and cooperation." Adrian smiled slightly, "I said that Apple will take off again in your hands, I have this hunch, and I believe you see the future exhibition trends, we will definitely be in a few years. With episode a, then we will have a broader future."

Although the other party always maintains a calm God, from the beginning, he carefully observed that his Adrian still caught Steve Jobs’ pupil and shrinked instantly.

"Thank you for your proposal, I will seriously consider it, please give me some time." He said so in the end.

Despite the answer, Jobs agreed after a few days, especially when the contract was in front of him. Although the written things may also be overturned, they are always more reliable than the verbal agreement. Of course, this contract will wait for him to become Apple netbsp again; "Wait and see, Crow." After Melio stepped down~IndoMTL.com~Adrian said this to Claude, who shrugged and said nothing.

As before, he initially opposed capital injection to Apple. After all, Apple’s embarrassment is obvious to everyone, but Adrian started his unique statement: "Very good, then I will invest myself. Anyway, "Titanic" earned me enough funds."

It was really an answer that made people want to vomit blood. Claude rolled his eyes, hesitated for a while, and recalled his previous achievements, and finally agreed.

Apple’s affairs are basically settled. How did Adrian plan for a long time and allow some mistakes? In his previous life, he still knew Jobs to a certain extent, and after collecting capital in this life, he collected a lot of information about this madman after setting the goal on Apple, and then formulated a series of plans, such as in the office and Jobs a The absent-mindedness of the conversation is pretended.

It’s just that he still looked down on Steve Jobs after all-this is certainly not to say that he was counted, in fact, his goal was successfully achieved, but on the other hand, Jobs’ actions made him abnormal be surprised. F
