The 2013 summer season is coming to an end, and "Interstellar" is getting closer and closer to the 2 billion box office.
"Wolf Warrior" has also been in theaters for four weeks, taking in a box office of RMB 645 million in 25 days, ranking second in the summer box office.
The domestic hit "Pacific Rim" also had a box office of 640 million US dollars in one month of release, and the box office in the mainland alone was close to 100 million US dollars.
At the same time, this is also the first A-level production in the mainland film market whose domestic box office exceeds the North American box office!
In a historic moment, a major production with an investment of nearly 200 million, the domestic box office is higher than the North American box office!
"Pacific Rim", which originally failed miserably at the box office in North America, turned out to be a profitable film due to its domestic box office success. It can be said that the domestic market saved this A-level production!
"Iron Man 3" exceeded 700 million, and "Pacific Rim" exceeded 600 million. The domestic market has produced two Hollywood movies worth 100 million US dollars within one year. It is already a market that cannot be ignored for Hollywood studios.
In addition to two films with a box office of 600 million, the domestic adventure blockbuster "Tomb Raiders" took in a box office of 569 million after more than a month of screening.
Thanks to the higher two-point share, even though the trend of "Tomb Raiders" is not very good, it has maintained a lot of film schedules.
The higher the share, the less box office money will be stolen.
The box office of the Hollywood blockbuster "Vegetarian 6" failed to exceed 400 million, while "Man of Steel" took in 350 million.
There are only a few films that have exceeded 300 million, including "Back to Earth" with 180 million and "White House Down" with 145 million.
Fan Binbin's "One Night of Surprise" has a box office of 151 million yuan in its three weeks of release, which is a good performance.
Originally, it was 40 million in three days in the first week, and it was 90 million in a single week in the second week. The trend was so good, I thought there was another hit, and Fan Binbin's monoclonal antibody ability was about to explode.
As a result, in the third week, it only had 21 million in a single week. It was immediately discouraged and the box office was like this.
During the early stage of publicity, there were all kinds of "revealing the deleted version of Fan Binbin's large-scale sex scene in "One Night Surprise" and exposing Fan Binbin's passionate clips".
It was somewhat useful in the first two weeks and attracted a lot of viewers, but it stopped working after that.
There is some use in attracting the audience through passionate scenes, but Guang Xian is the worst at it. Several small and medium-budget movies were supported by the selling of female stars.
There are only a few summer movies that have exceeded 100 million yuan, but movies such as "The Great War", "Big Brother", and "Monsters University" still have the potential to exceed 100 million yuan.
"Jurassic Park", which was released for 6 days, took in 200 million at the box office in 6 days. It is certain to break 300 million. As for how far it can go, it depends on the next trend.
.
This summer's summer release saw "Interstellar," a hit with a box office of nearly 2 billion. In the three months from June to August, the domestic market generated a huge box office of more than 8 billion.
8 billion, it has successively refreshed the first-day, single-day, single-week, and single-month box office records in the domestic market, and is truly the most popular period.
It's the end of August, and the bustling summer vacation is coming to an end, and it's time for major companies to accept the fruits of the harvest.
Tang An was jet lagged after returning to China and returned to work the next day.
In the group's large conference room, all major branch companies, group directors and above were all present.
"Thank you for your hard work. After a busy summer vacation, all companies have achieved great results. Thank you for your hard work during this time."
Let’s exchange a few words and get straight to the point. There’s a lot to do today.
Tang An first looked at the distribution director Cheng Hai and asked, "Mr. Cheng, when will the share of "Interstellar" be released?"
Generally, if a movie is slow to receive a share, it will take three or four months to come out. However, Hantang Media is the distributor, and it is a very strong distributor. It has been released for a month and a half, and it is already the end of August, so it can settle part of it first.
Cheng Hai replied, "As of Sunday, August 4th, the box office is already being settled, and it is estimated that it will be settled within the next two days."
"Please urge me to send the money as soon as possible."
It seemed to be 1.785 billion before August 4th. Tang An proposed a two-point share and received 803 million. In addition, there is a 50 million subsidy for 3D or giant-screen movies with a box office of more than 500 million, which makes it 853 million.
The previous acquisition of three companies cost more than 1 billion, and the overseas copyright income was 300 million. In addition to the money on the group's account, there is still nearly 5 billion in cash.
Overseas box office revenue should be more than 400 million and nearly 500 million
However, there are still 3.3 billion loans. How should we spend this money carefully?
However, the primary goal was to acquire Weibo. Tang An looked at Wu Feng.
"Mr. Wu, what's going on over there at Xinlang?"
"Chairman, there are still some details left. Overall, we have acquired Weibo 7's shares for 1.477 billion to become the second largest shareholder, and then in the next few years we can expand our shares to up to 15."
Based on the acquisition price, Weibo’s valuation is about 21 billion, which is not as good as a UC.
A year ago, Weibo was at this price. Over the past year or so, Weibo has taken many detours.
If you get 7, you will be the third largest shareholder. There are many more than the management team headed by Cao Guowei, which is enough.
Specific details will be reported separately later, and each of its companies has made new progress.
The first is Nuomi.com, a lifestyle service platform. When it was originally acquired from Renren, its valuation was less than one billion. After nearly a year of development, it invested 150 million yuan. Even if the ticketing business was divested, its current valuation has been
Soared to nearly 3 billion yuan.
It seems quite high. In fact, if there is no deviation, Meituan’s valuation will be as high as US$3 billion when it raises Series C financing in May next year.
There is also Dianping, which is now valued higher than Nuomi.com.
As for Are you hungry, there is no comparison yet.
But everyone is in the initial stage. Even if Meituan is leading now, no one knows when it will fall behind.
Emerging industries are developing the fastest. As long as you have money, channels and traffic, it is not difficult to catch up.
The three major Internet giants have already focused on this area. Ahli has already led the investment in Meituan. Although Meituan later fell into the arms of Tengxun, Ahli switched to Ele.me.
But now that Meituan and Ahli have not broken up, Tengxun has naturally set its sights on Nuomi.com.
The same goes for Baidu. They also fell in love with Nuomi.com, but as for Ele.me, who was still a junior, he was disliked.
"Accepting investment from Tengxun and idg Capital, the Series B financing was US$80 million."
Looking at the top domestic VCs on the list, Tang An finally chose IDG Capital and Tencent Capital instead of Sequoia Capital and Baidu, which seemed more sincere.
80 million, based on a valuation of 3 billion yuan, it will directly give up nearly 15% of the shares. This time the B round accepted a 300 million investment from China Resources, one of the top ten real estate companies in the country, giving away 9.68 shares, and the theater valuation was 3.1 billion
RMB already has 180 directly-operated and franchised theaters, about ten more than Wanda.
However, Wandana is a luxury cinema with an average of 8.7 screens per cinema, while the Han and Tang Cinemas have an average of 5.5 screens per cinema.
Star America has more than 360 theaters, with an average of only 4.7 screens per theater.
China Resources Real Estate is not as good as Vanke, Hengda, and Greenland, but it will build Vientiane City commercial centers in every city across the country and promises to give priority to the introduction of Han and Tang Cinemas.
There are far more things to deal with than this, and the major companies under the group and the management structure of the group itself need to be reorganized.
Finally, the distribution department reported some subsequent business.
"Chairman, in addition to these movies, for "Gardenia Blooms" directed by He Jiong, Drama Pictures has quoted a guaranteed amount of 450 million, which is 1.5 billion higher than ours. The investors are still waiting for us. Reply, do you want a quote?"
"No, let Jujiao Pictures take the 450 million." Tang An shook his head.
Distribution director Cheng Hai added, "In addition, Galloping Pony failed to win the distribution rights of "The Wheel", a tripartite cooperation between China Film, Pony, and Lay's, due to a shortage of funds. Lay's took it away for 800 million."
Damn it, Xiaoma escaped. If this was a guarantee of 800 million, then the investment would have been a loss. If the publisher loses a lot more, it will be over.
"'The Wheel' is a two-part movie, right? Lay's guarantees a minimum of 800 million for two parts?" Tang An asked.
Cheng Hai nodded, "It's two parts."
Tsk tsk tsk, China Film and Pony have to thank Layshi this time.
It seems that the investment in the two parts of "Taiping Wheel" is 300 million yuan.
With a guarantee of 800 million, if you can defraud a little money in Southeast Asia, you won’t lose too much.
Moreover, this money can be obtained one year in advance now, and if you invest in something else within a year, you might be able to earn it back.
The entertainment industry is getting crazier and crazier. Bernard's guarantee of 400 million for "See You Again" is considered reliable, but these two are a bit outrageous.
However, without the advantage of foresight, it is reasonable to say that the 450 million guarantee for "Gardenia Blooms" is a bit too high. That's not what gambling is.
The two parts of "Taipei" cost 800 million in total, and the first part of "Red Cliff" cost 300 million five years ago. There is nothing wrong with the two parts costing 800 million, not to mention the Titanic of the East!
