This girl is not happy to have children, but she likes children.
During the period when Zhao Hong was at home, the animated film "Kung Fu Panda" screened in DreamWorks theaters was very rewarding. It sold for 3300 million Hong Kong dollars in one month in Hong Kong. This figure directly surprised many film companies.
More than 3000 million yuan is not a lot at all. Although there are now films with 4000 million yuan in the box office of Xiangjiang movies from time to time, there are only a few movies a year.
Most companies would laugh out of their dreams as long as their movies can sell more than 3000 million yuan.
This movie is not only a big hit in China, it is also very popular in other places besides Xiangjiang.
There were more than 200 million people in South Korea, the box office in Japan was US$3500, the other Southeast Asian countries combined were US$4100 million, and the box office in Taiwan was NT$7800.
The total box office in Asia is about 1000 million U.S. dollars, and it can still be screened for about two weeks, at least [-] million U.S. dollars.
It can be said that the box office in Asia alone allowed DreamWorks to recoup its costs at the box office, plus it made a lot of money.
The total revenue in Oceania is 1550 million U.S. dollars. This movie can be regarded as opening up cultural barriers. People here found it very enjoyable after watching it.
They can understand it completely, and it is dubbed in English, so it means that it is a Hollywood animation and they all believe it.
In fact, many Westerners really want to understand Eastern culture, but because of their different races, they actually see that people of yellow race have face blindness.
There are still many movies without dubbing and they are not used to it. Some people say that Hollywood movies enter China without dubbing. What about doing this?
Chinese-language films are originally at a disadvantage in this area, and dubbing is necessary at this time. Zhao Hong has always believed that it is difficult for Chinese-language films to open up the global market.
But animated movies are different. There is no racial barrier. In this case, it is the easiest to open the cultural barriers in Western countries.
Therefore, Zhao Hong attaches great importance to animated film companies. For example, they have already started filming an animated film, which is "The Lion King". This film can be said to be a hurdle that cannot be avoided when it comes to animated films. It is the pinnacle of 2D animation.
Also, this movie is very profitable, with a total global box office of over one billion US dollars. This figure would scare anyone to death!
Zhao Hong has been coveting this movie for a long time. The pre-production of this movie started a year ago, and the animation company even sent a team to the African savannah to get material.
There are also some people who go to other animation companies in the United States to learn advanced animation knowledge, and the script polishing is also carried out at the same time. It can be said that this movie will be available to everyone at the Spring Festival next year at the latest.
In addition to its box office performance, Zhao Hong also values peripheral income, which is at least a billion-dollar pie. This is a steady stream of gold mines for DreamWorks.
The current DreamWorks has completed its layout in Asia, Oceania and Europe. If this year's plan is realized, the United States will not be afraid. Under this situation, as long as it takes another three years, it can be said that except for the mainland and polar bears, it will not be included in the territory. Everywhere else is filled with DreamWorks flags.
Just think about it!
Zhao Hong also discovered a phenomenon, that is, the box office of DreamWorks films in other Southeast Asian countries is gradually rising. Previously, the box office of other Southeast Asian countries was similar to that of Japan, but now the gap is gradually widening.
This is mainly due to the fact that DreamWorks has been digging deep into these small Southeast Asian countries. These theaters all belong to DreamWorks. Now the buildings of DreamWorks belong to local prosperous areas, as well as the current economic development of other Southeast Asian countries. It is also relatively fast.
Their consumption levels are skyrocketing, and urbanization is increasing.
In addition, the brand of DreamWorks Theaters is slowly spreading, and its popularity in the local area is getting wider and wider.
The release of the "Kung Fu Panda" movie is global, and Europe has also reaped a lot during this month. The box office in Europe is not inferior to that in Asia, and it is also a good result of over [-] million US dollars.
It can be said that the popularity of DreamWorks Cinemas in Europe has been rapidly increasing, and the DreamWorks brand is also well-known by everyone.
In the United States, this movie has been released for a week now, and it is also very popular. The story is not too complicated, and the quality of this movie is very high. They did not have any adverse reactions when watching it.
It should also be said that DreamWorks Films is not unknown in the United States, and many of DreamWorks' films have been released in the United States.
Many DreamWorks films have already sold tens of millions of dollars in the United States. Most of the films shot by Zhao Hong are released here, and the videotapes of DreamWorks movies are very popular here.
Therefore, the release of "Kung Fu Panda" here is also highly anticipated, mainly because this movie was first released in Europe. After media reports, many people also know the situation of this movie. Of course, publicity is indispensable.
Real money was spent on the film when it was released, and after two or three weeks of bombardment the film aroused the curiosity of the audience.
Besides, "Kung Fu Panda" is a comic first. In the United States, the comics and toys are selling well. DreamWorks is now updating the comics all the time.
In order to write the comic "Kung Fu Panda", the people in the editorial department worked hard. Zhao Hong attached great importance to this, but he himself had no inspiration to write outstanding plots.
But this is not a big deal. This person is short-witted, but a group of people is different. As long as their welfare can keep up, their imagination can be described as unlimited.
Zhao Hong was amazed by many flashy ideas. Now it can be said that the editorial department of DreamWorks is a large group. They are divided into many groups, each responsible for different things, and all members are authentic.
Zhao Hong has discovered a lot of talents in the process. Now many students at the Chinese University of Hong Kong want to work here. It is a paradise for literati.
As long as you are selected, it will give you a great benefit, that is, the company will sell you a house at half price, and you can also get a low-interest loan from Meisheng Bank. This condition alone has attracted many people!
It is not easy for young people in Xiangjiang to buy a house without relying on their parents. Maybe you will live in a public house built by the Hong Kong government all your life. Pigeon houses are the shadow of most Xiangjiang people.
Even if Zhao Hong's fund helps one or two hundred people with special difficulties to have houses to live in each year, it will only be a drop in the bucket. It is impossible to close the gap between the rich and the poor, and the gap will only get wider and wider.
Under such circumstances, working in DreamWorks saves young people from struggling for more than 20 years. What Zhao Hong wants is for employees to work with peace of mind. He still can't do it as a black-hearted capitalist.
Now many film companies in Xiangjiang want DreamWorks to write scripts for them, but this is impossible. Zhao Hong has a screenwriter selection rule, only the top screenwriters, the company will not restrict their creative freedom, that is to say They may be able to write scripts for other companies, but they must also write high-quality scripts for the company within the specified time.
As for the other screenwriters, they should just work for DreamWorks honestly!
Although Zhao Hong is kind to the employees, he will not be merciless if he violates the company's regulations. The kindness of a woman is not to be tolerated!
It can be said that the originality of DreamWorks is so powerful, it is inseparable from the good treatment and good management of the screenwriters. This incident directly reversed the lack of importance that Xiangjiang filmmakers paid to screenwriters.
Now many Xiangjiang film companies have begun to pay attention to this matter, and the era of writing scripts during on-site shooting is gone forever.
No matter how blind investors are, they need the director to have a script, so that they can have the confidence to invest. Of course, they will know the money laundering movies themselves!
Anyway, Zhao Hong is determined not to let a movie like this be shown in his own cinema. Now the film market in Xiangjiang is much better than in the original time and space.
Every year, several small companies get a lot out of making movies with sincerity. For such movies, Zhao Hong’s instructions are to promote them well. He just wants to kill those unhealthy tendencies, so that those who make movies seriously will be rewarded. Turn this market around.
