Chapter 1099 - End of Year Trivia II

Among the three movies to be released, Wu Chen's most bottomless heart is "Myth", he played a big game this time, invested 120 million US dollars, and directly soared the film to the level of a commercial production, and in terms of computer special effects, he used the special effects team of Weta Company.

The Lord of the Rings series of movies was filmed by director Jackson, and Wu Chen also took the opportunity to acquire this digital special effects company, he knew that in the future, film production would be inseparable from the addition of computer special effects. The company's headquarters has now moved to the Golden Triangle City, where he is the absolute majority shareholder of 80 percent.

An unknown small company in New Zealand, after four years of development, it has become a leading giant in the global digital special effects industry.

The movies shot by Atlantis International Film and Television Group every year alone are enough for special effects artists to be busy, and rarely take on external business.

"Mr. Super Director, I seem to be a little worried about tonight's premiere, and this is the first time I've seen the lack of confidence in your eyes." Wang Jixian walked out of the room, she had just changed into an evening dress to attend the premiere in the theater.

Although she did not participate in the performance of this movie, according to the company's habits, all signed artists who can participate in this kind of occasion must participate, and Wu Chen's movies have never lacked entertainment media interviews and reports, which is also a shortcut to accumulate popularity.

"I have never doubted the box office in Asia, China, Japan, South Korea, India, Southeast Asian countries, and even the only thing that cannot be predicted is the European and American box office, foreigners and Chinese people have different cultures, whether they can understand the artistic conception contained in it, this is also unpredictable." Wu Chen said with a smile.

"So how much do you predict this movie will reach at the box office?" Zhou Huimin, who came out of the other room, asked.

"The global data should not be less than seven or eight billion US dollars, and the data of Huaxia should be around 100 million US dollars. Wu Chenyun said lightly.

"My dear, the annual data of mainland movies this year adds up, that is, eight or nine billion, and you will need 820 million for one movie, this data is too rebellious, right?" Zhou Huimin felt that Wu Chen was exaggerating.

"You are wrong, the potential of the mainland box office is far from being brought into play, it has something to do with movies, it has something to do with habits, and it has something to do with the number of theaters, according to statistics, there are only 30 theaters in total, more than 1,800 screens, can the box office figures look good?"

"But what about my Huaxin Vision Cinema Line, there are 30 theaters in first-tier cities with 180 screens, 60 theaters in second-tier cities with 300 screens, and 120 in third- and fourth-tier cities with 600 screens, a total of 1,080 screens, how much can this increase the box office?"

"In the future, I want to develop ten times the scale, at least more than 10,000 theaters, to become the largest theater chain in China, of course, this is a gradual process, I plan to spend ten years to complete this goal." Wu Chen said.

"I know that the total investment in cinemas in first-tier cities is 40 million US dollars, and each theater is 1.5 million US dollars, and you build 180 theaters, oh my God, how much does it cost?" Wang was amazed by this number.

"Fool, your calculation is not right, the cinemas in the second-tier cities only invest $800,000 each, a total of $48 million, and the movie theaters in the third- and fourth-tier cities invest $500,000 each, a total of $60 million, which is really cheap, they are all prime locations, do you know how much the land of these movie theaters is worth now? And how much will it be worth ten years from now? Wu Chen said with a smile.

"My dear, this afternoon I was in Xidan, Kyoto, and saw that the Atlantis Mall was under construction, and the billboard on the side of the road said that it included a commercial center, a pedestrian street, a style street, a five-star hotel, a business hotel, an office building, a high-end apartment and other buildings, integrating shopping, leisure, catering, entertainment and other functions. Zhou Huimin said.

"This is a new project launched by Atlantis International Group Huaxia Real Estate Group at the beginning of the century, and it is not an innovation, learning from the practice of a mainland real estate giant, but they are not positioned to fail. According to the project brochure, it is expected to build more than 300 shopping malls in first, second and third-tier cities, which is also a 10-year plan. Wu Chen stood up and said.

Kyoto Huaxin Vision Cinema Line Xidan IMAX Cinema is the ace cinema of the cinema chain, and the investment in a single theater has reached 10 million US dollars, which is the beginning of the new century!

The theater has six screening halls, the largest one is 2,000 people, with the world's premier projection equipment and the largest screen, 35.7 times 29.7, and it is also the largest IMAX theater in China at present.

The first stop of the premiere of "Mythology" kicked off here, and the red carpet began at half past four, because it was dark at five o'clock.

Wu Chen is an outlier in the mainland film industry, he basically doesn't deal with mainland film companies, there is no communication in this circle and that circle, everyone is well water and does not violate river water, and each makes money with his ability.

The fame and status of this product in the film industry is too high, the world's only super director, the owner of the world's largest film company, Guinness World Records has four records, the Academy Award for Best Director, Best Picture and Best Original Screenplay Record Winner, the global box office record holder of 10 billion US dollars, normal people can't afford to provoke him.

Look at his current treatment, he has the right to independently produce and distribute films, the right to independently build cinemas and the right to independently introduce foreign films, and has a film branch, TV drama production company, record company, brokerage company, model agency and cinema chain in Huaxia, which is a super giant in the cultural and entertainment industry.

"Mr. Wang came quite early!" This is the boss of the light greeting the boss of Huayi.

"Mr. Wang, you're not too late! Mr. Ma also came. "This is the boss of Huayi greeting the boss of the light.

"You both have arrived, how dare I be late? Mr. Zhao is here. This is Ciwen's boss greeting Mr. Zhao of Xin Baoyuan again.

"No one dares to delay this premiere, the task under the bureau, Mr. Li is here." Mr. Zhao of Xin Baoyuan greeted the boss of Rong Xinda.

"I saw that the boss's car had arrived, and Liu Dong was here." Rong Xinda's boss greets Hairun's boss.

Although Wu Chen has no popularity in the mainland, many film company bosses and their actors participated in the premiere of "Myth" tonight, because the boss of the Radio and Television Bureau personally watched the scene, who dared not come to cheer?
