Paramount Pictures.

"This is really shocking!"

Shirley Lansing, President of Paramount Pictures, put down the newspaper in her hand and said in astonishment: "Without the participation of AOL, with the power of the Golden Dawn Entertainment Group alone, it was actually able to shake the Warner Group, and the box office on the first day was still strong. Press Warner?!"

Jordan on the side said: "Look at what is said in the newspaper?"

"The Matrix" is known as the best sci-fi action movie in Hollywood in recent years, and "Spartan 300" is known as the best historical epic film in Hollywood in recent years. Undoubtedly, they are all excellent movies !"

For a while, Paramount Pictures was shocked, but also stressed.

Why?

Because in mid-April, which is less than 10 days, Paramount’s film "The Secret of West Point" will be released soon.

"Humph!"

At this time, Summer Redstone, the chairman of Viacom Group, the parent company of Paramount Pictures, sitting on the office sofa, let out a cold snort and looked gloomy.

"Shirley, Jordan, you can arrange to postpone the release date of "The Secret of West Point"." Lei Shidong said solemnly.

Immediately, Shirley Lansing and Jordan were taken aback.

Jordan looked at Lei Shidong with an expression full of astonishment. After all, no one in the entire United States knows how unconvincing Lei Shidong he is and does not admit defeat.

Postponing the release date means giving up on Warner and Wald Pictures and starting a head-on fight;

Means that it can't be beaten.

"Boss, the production cost of "The Secret of West Point" movie alone is as high as 95 million U.S. dollars, and the promotion expenses are currently spent millions of dollars. Now that the release date is postponed, it means that our millions of dollars in promotion expenses have all been paid, you Is it really decided?" Shirley Lansing looked at Redstone with solemn expression.

The same goes for Jordan.

"Humph!"

Redstone snorted coldly: "Although I don't want to admit it, our "West Point Secret", simply from the excellent level of the film, really can't do "The Matrix" and "Spartan 300 Warriors". I don't want to. In order to stop the loss in time and become cannon fodder, is it possible to rush up and do it recklessly?"

"Yes, boss!"

Shirley Lansing and Jordan took a deep breath.

Paramount is capable and can interfere with the movie's film set-up and adjust the release date in time.

but!

Many small and medium-sized film companies in Hollywood are not so lucky.

"Adjust the date?"

"What do we use to adjust the release date?"

"We are not Paramount, not Colombia, we are just a small film company with less than 100 people, and the theaters will not compromise."

"What can I do?"

"The gods fight, we are reduced to cannon fodder!"

"April is a low-season schedule in previous years, but this year is so hot, but the audience's eyes are on "The Matrix" and "Spartan 300". Our movies don't have much attention at all. , This is still making money!"

Each of the small and medium-sized film companies gritted their teeth at the thought of their own films released in April and the fate of being about to become cannon fodder.

There is no way!

.......

On April 7, "Sparta" won the box office champion of the day again;

On April 8, "The Matrix" relied on Warner's efforts to increase its box office by 5%, but it still failed to beat "Sparta";

April 9th ​​enters Monday.

In the first three days of the first weekend of "300 Spartan", the cumulative box office in North America was as high as 61 million US dollars;

In the next three days of the weekend, "The Matrix" once again harvested 32 million U.S. dollars in the box office. It was released for 10 days and the cumulative box office reached 102 million U.S. dollars.

however......

When the time passed again two weeks later, the difference between the North American box office results of the two films was less than 5 million U.S. dollars.

The film "300 Warriors of Sparta" has a cumulative North American box office of 143 million US dollars;

The film "The Matrix" has a cumulative North American box office of 148 million US dollars;

"Hey, I can't suppress it~"

Time Warner Group Chairman Steve Rose sighed: "Go ahead and tell Barry Meyer to give up the attack on Wald Pictures."

"Yes, boss."

Things have developed to this point. As long as the eyes are not blind and the head is not confused, you can be sure that "300 Spartan" is a success, and it is no longer the media force that can suppress it.

It is a helpless behavior to give up attacking Wald Pictures and adjust its propaganda strategy!

After all, no one can have trouble with money!

Not long.

Barry Meyer, the vice president of Warner Bros. Pictures, received instructions from his superiors.

"Forget it!"

"Spartan 300 Warriors, Wald Pictures, Golden Dawn Entertainment Group? Unexpectedly, in just a few years, they have grown to this point? Spielberg's DreamWorks, right?"

Barry Meyer, his face full of sorrow.

In the North American schedule in April, "Sparta" and "The Matrix" are both R-rated films, and the production costs are also the same, and the box office data is also almost the same. The topic heat is also high, and the reputation of the two is quite high. It can be said that the limelight is on the rise, and it is the existence that goes hand in hand.

As for other movies released in the same period, ha ha~

Gu is reduced to cannon fodder!

The tough Sony Columbia still clings to the six faces, does not withdraw the file, and brazenly insists on it. As a result, they do not believe in evil, and the new film can only be hit for nothing.

Lost at the box office!

"Our "Best Lover" has a production cost of US$67 million and a promotional cost of US$50 million. However, within one week of its release, the North American box office was only US$13 million? A big loss!!!"

Sony Columbia is heartbroken.

.......

April 20.

"300 Spartan" was released in 12 European countries overseas, including Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Portugal, and Spain.

This time, the number of countries that are released overseas is much more eye-catching than there are only 3 countries in "My Grand Wedding in Greece" a few months ago.

The overseas distribution channel of Wald Pictures has not been completed yet, but whoever lets Wald Pictures make movies, it's hot!

Capital is profit-seeking!

There was "My Grand Wedding in Greece~www.novelmtl.com~ Now there is "300 Spartan", and there will be "Harry Potter" and "Spiderman" in the future. The film market has been actively or passively opened up to Wald Pictures.

In the words of the GGL cinema line, the third largest cinema chain in the UK, "No one will have trouble making money, not to mention that Wald Pictures took the initiative to lower the film share. We have no reason to refuse."

In the next week, Warner's "The Matrix" and Wald Pictures' "Spartan 300 Warriors" frantically swept across Europe with high-quality quality. This wave of tornadoes appeared in Asia, Australia, etc. They have broken the box office records of R-rated films in some countries.

For a time, the limelight was in full swing!

The overseas distribution power of Wald Pictures is also directly displayed in front of many Hollywood studios.
