Chapter 277 Emergency Release(2/2)
In short, these three movies have achieved small success at the box office in a manner that mainstream Hollywood manufacturers do not understand.
Taking advantage of the end of the summer season, the traditional gap period lacked time for masterpieces, and coupled with the confrontation between the Star-Spangled Banner Act and the First Amendment, the first weekend trend was very good.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Ronald feels that it is not a big problem for these three movies to recover their costs through domestic box office. If they release the video tapes while they are hot, they will be a net profit.
…
It just so happened that Ronald's new house in Beverly Park had also been completed. The windows were opened for ventilation for two months, and people were hired to use instruments to test it every day. Finally, there were no harmful substances exceeding the standard.
Ronald sought Diane's advice and decided to live in it first, and then slowly buy things. Then he moved some of their personal collections and things in and sorted them out.
Diane's pregnancy gradually became longer and she always felt tired. She couldn't control the things and internal furniture purchases for a few times, and she would easily get emotional and lose her temper.
Ronald only spent six hours a day in the post-production visual effects studio and went home on time to be with his pregnant woman.
"I understand that Angie was also very worried when Angie and I's first child was born. It's best to spend more time with her." Walter Murch, who was responsible for the entire image and sound editing, understood Ronald very well and reminded Ronald.
Don't ignore Diane's psychological needs.
There was a lot of visual effects work to be done. The three special effects directors all had their own studio teams, and they lacked a unified talent. Ronald asked Walter Murch to pay attention to the daily work progress of each studio and see if there were any problems.
If there is any conflict, notify Ronald to go to a meeting.
…
"Hey, here's your call!" Diane, who was next to the phone, stretched out the phone to Ronald and glanced at him.
Today, Diane wanted to eat blueberries again. The blueberries that were about to go out of season were not particularly good in supermarkets and markets. Ronald had no choice but to ask Richard to settle the matter.
When Diane heard the call, she thought Blueberry was coming...
"Ah, Niceta, I thought it was Richard. Oh, what?"
Ronald listened to Niceta's words for more than a minute, his brows frowning more and more.
Jim Cameron's new film "The Abyss" performed well in the box office market, but there were some discordant voices among the executives of 20th Century Fox. They accused Cameron of using Fox's money to experiment for himself.
Bathyscaphe and visual effects, and executives vaguely pointed the finger at Ronald, who originally advocated for Cameron to invest more and edit a longer version.
"I know, I'll call Mr. Barry Diller." Ronald didn't feel very good. How could every movie be a hit? Jim's box office was worthy of his investment. At most, it wasn't as good as his.
His first few movies only made so much money.
The video tape market is so hot now, Fox will not make any less money.
"It's yours again..." Diane received a second call, and it was not Blueberry again, and pointed the receiver at Ronald again.
"It's me, Ronald." The person on the phone was Joel Silver, the producer of Die Hard.
"Twentieth Century Fox started complaining that our crew spent too much money. This is a sequel to a hit action movie. What did they mean when they said this in the middle of filming?"
"You didn't invest more, did you? Did you? Okay, I'll call them."
Joel Silver's hands and feet are not too clean. This time Fox accused him of spending too much money. I wonder if it is related to Cameron's matter? More importantly, whether it is related to himself.
Ronald was thinking about something when the phone at his hand rang again.
"Diane?" Ronald pointed to the phone.
"It must be your job again..." Diane pouted and didn't want to answer the phone anymore. She said she was going home, but in fact it wasn't a lot of work.
"Aha, thank you, please keep me in mind. That's what I said. Mr. Dahe even flew in the best Nordic blueberries himself."
Richard made a call to Sony's President Ohga's office, and the freshest blueberries flown from Northern Europe were immediately sent to their new home.
