Chapter 214 10 million

"It's so fucking horrible, so bloody, I like movies like this!"

"As far as the last word is concerned, I will continue to watch the movie when it is released. I will buy it home after the DVD. Such a movie is worth watching countless times."

"I think it's not just a horror movie. It seems that it's not as simple as a horror movie. It seems that it's not a killer from beginning to end."

...

A group of film professionals all had similar opinions as they listened to the discussions of the audience.

One by one, I looked at Tom Thorneberg and almost didn't have to think that "Saw" would definitely bring a considerable income to Lionsgate.

Tom Thorneberg's face was filled with a faint smile, and he enjoyed such envious eyes.

Soon, the people who could cause a gust of storm in the film industry turned their attention to Chen Tian, ​​although Chen Tian was not a screenwriter or a director, but was just an investor.

But they believe that Chen Tian must have participated in it a little bit, and the investment in horror films has always been smaller than that of other films.

However, the possibility of getting almost the box office revenue is no less than that of a big investment, but now horror movies have fallen into a bottleneck, and "Saw" undoubtedly gives them new ideas.

"Justin, we're meeting again, Nicky Rocco, you won't know each other anymore, right?" Nicky Rocco said with a smile.

"Why didn't you know me? You helped me add a singer's label. I heard that the sales are pretty good." Chen Tian said with a smile.

Although he didn't have much contact with Nicky Rocco, the songs he sang and the two rap records of Scarlett Natalie Portman were released by Universal Music.

Now it has been released less than half a month ago, and the album sales volume of Universal told him last week that it had exceeded 100,000 copies.

"This means that your work is good enough. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many fools who would like to buy it. Isn't it?

Why don’t Justin go and have a look today? I heard that there are also good movies in this year.” Nicky Rocco offered an invitation.

Tom Thorneberg walked up from his side: "Nicky, it seems that our team is very large. We Lions Gate, MGM, and Warner are all staring at Justin, plus you guys."

Nicki Rocco didn't expect that so many people would follow Chen Tian. He laughed in surprise: "Can I say Justin is very popular?"

"Obviously," Dan Fehrman said.

He was about to ask Chen Tian about Superman and Batman, to see if Chen Tian had specific ideas, and then to make it public.

The reporters looked at such a vast group of teams, holding up the cameras in their hands and pressing the shutter.

Today is the first day of the St. Dennis International Film Festival. Ten feature films and five short films will be released.

Chen Tian sat on a chair and looked at the brochure introduction of the film participating in this film festival in his hand. The first page was a film "The Big Man Napoleon" with some influence on Chen Tian.

Just by looking at the name, it is easy to think of Napoleon, who is in power in the European continent, but the film is not about Napoleon.

It is about a common high school student living in Princeton, Idaho. This ordinary high school student was called Napoleon.

With fluffy red hair, clumsy hiking boots, and some special skills that are not appreciated, he also has the same troubles as other boys in this confused adolescence.

Napoleon lives with his grandmother and his unemployed brother Cape. The 30-year-old brother is still idle and is nostalgic in the online chat room for his love.

One day, grandma fell and injured herself in the sand dune. So an uncle from their distance appeared for some reason. He came to this remote town to take care of the two brothers. But unexpectedly, he almost ruined their lives.

Napoleon hit it off with his newly-met alumnus Pedro. When he learned that Pedro was participating in the school's student union presidential election and he was facing a very powerful opponent and Whitley he hated, he decided to temporarily put down his work and do his best to help his friends.

At the same time, Napoleon also remembers to feed his grandmother's alpaca, and try to avoid getting in touch with his bad uncle and the breast augmentation herbs he recommended from door to door.

Troubled by these troubles, Napoleon and Pedro, who had only a few small art skills, finally won with their enthusiasm and efforts.

This film is a comedy, with only two professional actors.

The other actors are non-professional actors in the town, and this is the most popular film at this St. Dennis International Film Festival.

The score on ibdm also has 6.8 points. Although this score is not high, it is not bad.

Chen Tian was not very clear about who bought the film, but the film was screened for three months after it was released in later generations.

There are only 6 theaters released, and the release scale only reached 1,000 yuan in three months, and the highest was 1,025.

With the screening time of up to 8 months, North America received 44.5 million yuan.

This is undoubtedly a big profit for a movie that invests only $400,000.

Moreover, the release scale of this film is not large, if the screening scale is increased.

It is not impossible for North America to reach 50 million yuan. In this case, you can make some money by spending 10 million yuan to buy this video.

"Justin, you are also watching this "Big Man Napoleon". I heard that he is very popular. Let's go in and see it later?" Eric Lomis said with a smile.

"I don't know, maybe I'll know what it will be like later, but I think it won't be too bad since I can get the key recommendations."

"What do you think of other things except this one? This one is said to have a good review, and I'm going to check it out, and it's just this afternoon."

Chen Tian looked at Eric Lomis' fingers. Eric Lomis deserves a movie called "Temptation Louis".

This film is a French romantic comedy, and the characteristics of French films give Chen Tian a good feeling.

The memory of this video soon appeared in my mind, and the scenes of the video were quickly replayed in front of Chen Tian's eyes.

Due to the decline of the fishing industry on a beautiful island, the beautiful island cannot be self-sufficient, and residents rely on government relief funds to live.

In order to improve the status quo, residents of the town decided to open a factory, but the investor required a resident doctor here.

In order to retain Louis, a young doctor from Montreal, the residents tried their best to cater to his preferences and weaved one kind-hearted lie after another, some even reaching a ridiculous level.

Finally, Louis knew the secret, but he was moved by the simplicity, enthusiasm, self-esteem, tenacity of the residents of the town, and their persistence in changing their destiny, and stayed in this beautiful and quiet place.

The film scored 7.2 on IMDB, and was released in North America on a small scale. The highest number of theaters released does not exceed 80.

In the end, it was released in North America and won nearly 10 million yuan in box office. Chen Tian was not sure about the cost of this film. The manual only stated that the cost was less than 500,000 US dollars.

If you have a good reputation, then you can increase it to a certain scale and the box office exceeds 20 million.

"Let's go and have a look, it should be pretty good, but there should be many competitors."

"Of course, videos without competitors are definitely not good ones. The specific box office and value evaluation will have to wait until you have watched the video before you can make a decision.

Justin, you have a good view of watching the video, then..."

"Eric, we are old friends. I know what you think, don't worry I can do it." Chen Tian said with a smile.

The news that "The Big Man Napoleon" announced the opening came from the radio, and the group stood up and walked towards the small cinema of 300 people.

Chen Tian set a bottom line for himself. If it does not exceed 10 million in the end, he will be ready to buy it and try it. (To be continued...)
