"Dark, violent! But it's true, only the Lord can save..." This was filled in by an older lady, and she gave "B".

"I like the gangster boss so much. He is the young version of Vito Corleon!" The young man who wrote this sentence gave "A".

"Do I only think Edward is charming?" The lady who spoke this sentence also gave "A".

"It is the inaction of these bureaucrats that have made the public security in Milwaukee worse and worse!" One audience member left a "F" after venting his dissatisfaction.

"In a video of all evil people, only Mira Sorvino is the light of the right way." Maybe it was the guy who gave "A" to Mira fans.

"The gunfight is great! It's just too few!" The man who left this sentence only gave "B".

I casually browsed the collected questionnaire, mainly "A" and "B", which further strengthened Ronnie's determination to watch the movie on Tuesday.

...

On Monday afternoon, CinemaSore finally gave its own rating:

"Romeo and Juliet", the theater audience's live score is only "B-", and the audience's reputation is poor, and the box office in North America will be between $40 million and $50 million.

"The Legend of the Wicked", the theater audience scored "A" on the spot, and the audience's reputation is good. The box office in North America will be between $110 million and $120 million.

Seeing this review, Bai Quinn excitedly made an in-place somersault. Fortunately, Chris's office was big enough, otherwise he would definitely crash something.

The box office of 120 million yuan is deducted from production costs, and various promotional costs are calculated, plus the gradual increase in the cinema's share every week, the theoretical distributable profit is about 40 million.

The expected revenue of Wademark Image, which accounts for 17% of the investment, is $6.8 million, 3% of Wes Anderson will receive 1.2 million, and 20% of the National Italian Civil Rights Association's expected revenue is $8 million.

The biggest winner is still Miramax. In addition to the profit sharing of 24 million yuan, Miramax also took a lot of money on the promotion and distribution expenses.

There is no way to do this. If you don’t cooperate with Miramax, who is backed by Disney, you will not be able to get distribution channels based on the Wademark image alone, and you will not get all kinds of conveniences during production. The final box office will not reach this level.

In the mature market of American movies, it is impossible for new players to make a fortune by relying on themselves, because the sky is full of "gods".

...

That night, Harvey led the representatives of Bowei Pictures, Chris and Bai Quinn, brothers gathered to discuss the subsequent promotional and promotion plan.

As Roy Disney-led "Old Minister" challenged the authority of "Emperor Eisner" and Katzenberg's departure, Bowei Pictures will face major changes. It is rumored that it may divest domestic business to Walt Disney Film Studios and only retain overseas distribution business.

Now the inside of Bowei Pictures is panicking, so the meeting that should have been led by Bowei Pictures for the next round of publicity and development has become Harvey's home court.

The main purpose of Harvey's meeting was naturally to add icing on the cake. Since "The Legend of the Wicked" has great potential, why not continue to work hard and expand the results of the battle?

Are you satisfied with the expected box office of 120 million?

Do you dare to rise against the trend?

Generally speaking, the box office in the second week will drop compared to the first weekend. According to the influence of quality, reputation, moviegoers, etc., the normal range is 25%-35%. There are really few films that rise against the market.

Hot films that have done this in the past two years include: "The Elf", "Modern Primitive", "Toy Story", "Forrest Gump" and "Apollo 13".

The one that is often compared with "The Legend of the Wicked" in recent days is last year's classic crime movie "Seven Deadly Sins", which has a good reputation, with a 10% drop in the first week and a total box office of 110 million.

When CinemaSore estimated the box office of "The Legend of the Wicked", he probably referred to "The Seven Deadly Sins".

But this benchmark is really hard to surpass.

As newcomers to the film industry, Chris and Bai Quinn couldn't come up with any good ideas.

The two had already agreed that as long as there was a plan to not increase the promotional and distribution costs, they would say, "Yes, Harvey."

As long as Harvey offers to add money, it is: "No, Harvey."

Although the two are not experienced enough, they also have professionals like Joe Drake, and they still know some common "money-trap tricks" in Hollywood.

They don’t know how much money invested can increase in the box office, but what is certain is that most of them must have been made away by media and public relations companies related to Disney and Miramax.

This is grabbing money from their pockets!

The budget of about 9 million yuan was only half spent, and there was still more than 4 million yuan in the next few weeks, so there would be no extra money!

There is no door!

Without the support of the brothers and the National Italian Civil Rights Association, they represented, Harvey could not do anything but insist on maintaining the status quo.

Sure enough, Harvey came up with a plan to increase the publicity and distribution costs by 10 million and compete with the upcoming "Ransoft".

He also mysteriously stated that some big shots don’t like Mel Gibson, and attacking him was also accumulating points for the two brothers.

You can make money and points, why not do it?

"I believe you, you are so bad old man!"

Bai Quinn cursed in her heart, but her mind was working quickly, trying to find loopholes in Harvey's plan and argue him.

But Harvey's plan does look attractive, at least it seems to be able to be implemented, and it will definitely have a big blow to the popularity of "Ransday". The small box office there will be at least mostly flowing into the "The Legend of the Wicked" with a good reputation.

Spend 10 million and make 20 million, no matter how you calculate it, you won’t lose money...

Mel Gibson is a famous big mouth in Hollywood, and there are countless mistakes. Harvey listed seven sins, each of which is fatal.

It seems, the more I want to argue, the more I feel that Harvey is right.

Bai Quinn fell into deep self-doubt and gradually lost her mind...

"QB, what do you think?"

After being pushed by Chris, Bai Quinn came back from his lost state, "What? What am I looking at?"

"Harvey's other plan!"

Although Christ deliberately emphasized "another set", Bai Quinn was obsessed with the question of whether it was feasible to deal with Mel Gibson and blurted out: "I don't think it's possible. Everyone knows that Mel's character will not reduce the audience that he originally planned to watch the movie. I don't think the money is worth spending, and..."

Chris pushed him again and said anxiously: "It's not Mel Gibson's one, but the new one..."

Only then did Bai Quinn notice a few lines of text that the projector typed, and a few eye-catching words came into view:

"Crazy!"

"separate!"

"Repay!"

"Proposal!"

"got engaged!"

Harvey laughed and said, "Little QB, this is not expensive, the media across the United States will promote it for us for free..."

After reading carefully, a set of procedures is: first the rumors about Bai Quinn and Mira Sorvino came out, and then Sarah and Bai Quinn staged a breakup scene. Next, Bai Quinn admitted his mistake and regained his marriage and proposed on the spot, and the two ended up getting engaged.

The whole drama lasts about ten days, covering just two weekends. As a lively breakup and proposal drama, it just happened to happen in the next two weekends, seducing passers-by to watch "The Legend of the Wicked" starring Bai Quinn and Mira Sorvino.

"Don't worry, we will release some news in the future to prove that cheating is a misunderstanding and has little impact on your personality." Harvey comforted.

Bai Quinn wondered: "But is Mira Sorvino willing? And her boyfriend Quentin..."

Harvey laughed and said, "Why don't you want to? They will cooperate with my plan!"

However, Harvey's tone made Bai Quinn, who was originally a little moved, feel that like Quentin and Mira, he must rotate around Harvey's baton, and only his horse's lead is on his side.

Although this is what the outside world thinks of him at the moment, Bai Quinn doesn't think so. He feels that he and Harvey have a mutually beneficial cooperative relationship.

Without Harvey and without Miramax, can’t I, Bai Quinn, make some name in Hollywood?

Although Bai Quinn thought so, it was impossible to break up about this little thing.

Harvey's plan is uncomfortable no matter how you look at it, you must think of another way!
