In the twinkling of an eye, it was July 22.

    "Fruit candy" has been released in theaters for the first weekend. Although Zhuke and others have made great efforts and invested a lot of money in publicity, they can''t make bricks without straw. With only 300 screens, they can''t make a big box office.

    At the top of this weekend''s box office list is the movie "killing time", produced by Time Warner and released at the same time as "fruit candy", with a box office of $28.5 million at the first weekend;

    Even though "Independence Day" has been released in theaters for nearly 20 days, as the North American box office champion this year, it still has great box office potential. This weekend, it won $27.35 million again, ranking second;

    Courage in war, produced and released by 20th century fox, is the third highest grossing $25 million this weekend;

    "A different miracle", "Professor fat man", "secret order of evaporation", "strange man of the clock tower" and other films ranked fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth respectively. Their box office this weekend was more than 15 million US dollars; Other films, such as "bad ghost informer", "big wave" and "Sunset Park", also made a good box office this weekend.

    "Lying trough!"

    "NIMA''s films are all the top 40 in North America box office this year. I''ll take my head to them!"

    Zhuke looked at the box office data and bit his teeth.

    $1327000!

    Yes, this is the box office result of the first weekend of hard candy!

    "Boss, there are a lot of blockbusters at the moment, and our" fruit candy "has no advantage, which is also expected." Said Victor.

    Zhuke nodded and said with a smile, "it''s all right. I''m just talking about it. Anyway, we''ll be back soon."

    Director Zach Schneider also breathed a sigh of relief: "as long as the film does not lose money, I have an account."

    "Ha ha ha!"

    Hearing the speech, Zhuke patted Zach on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Zach, Congratulations, your first movie is a success. Well, apart from the box office, I can still make a fortune in DVD and video copyright. "

    "Fruit candy" box office is not high, but think about it is not small.

    Man, it''s a big summer camp now!

    Even though many blockbusters have been shown in theaters for more than a week, or even two weeks, their appeal to the audience is still far greater than that of niche films such as hard candy. It''s quite amazing that they can make millions of dollars at the box office.

    No way, "fruit hard candy" cost is low!

    Cost plus publicity, plus copies of the film, doesn''t exceed $1.6 million. The box office of this film is estimated to be around us $5 million. Only a share of the box office will be enough to recover the original. In addition, the licensing and copyright selling expenses will be earned.

    Even if you don''t make a lot of money, it''s money.

    Three films started to be prepared at the same time, now "fruit candy" has been released, leaving only "fatal bend" and "Juno" two films.

    "Fatal bend" is a kind of plasma horror film, which should be released in the Halloween schedule of course;

    "Juno" is a youth comedy, a family type film. At present, the film has not been finished, and is expected to be released in Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    "Boss, I have another piece of good news for you." Victor said suddenly.

    "Oh? What is it? Say it quickly Zhuke urged.

    Zach Schneider also showed interest.

    Victor continued: "boss, we won the online peripheral authorization of independence day some time ago, and this is the good news I want to say."

    Hearing this, Zhuke immediately said, "of course, I remember that the 20th Century Fox vampires charged me $1 million. Ha ha, I guess they must regret it now. "

    "That''s right!" Victor said with a smile: "they must regret it. In less than 20 days, we have sold more than $5.5 million of Independence Day products on Amazon mall."

    Pa Pa ~!

    Zhuke couldn''t help patting his thigh and said in a loud voice, "fox, these kids are stupid. It''s not so easy to take advantage of Laozi."

    Zach can''t help but ask: "in that case, I''m sure I can make a lot of money."

    Victor nodded and said with a smile, "it''s not how much money you make, but how much money you can make. It''s expected that by the end of this month, independence day''s online peripherals will bring at least $2 million to the company."

    Even if Zach didn''t understand, he knew that Wald was going to make a fortune!

    The first month''s profit can be as high as $2 million. In the next few years, although the popularity of independence day will gradually decline, Wald pictures will definitely reap a lot of dollars within two years of licensing.

    Jack''s going to be rich!

    The ancients said: "no double blessing, no single disaster", Zhuke thought it was reasonable.

    Because "talent show" global copyright, finally registered successfully!

    It will also mean that Zucker has dug a gold mine again.

    "Victor, you immediately arrange for someone to go to the UK, to the BBC, and talk to them about the copyright of the talent show." He said immediately.

    "OK, boss."

    Victor answered and left the office to arrange for someone to go to England.

    Zach asked curiously, "Mr. ward, what does the copyright of the talent show mean? A new movie? "

    Chuck shook his head and said with a smile, "Zach, how many times have you said that, just call me chuck. As for the talent show, it''s not a movie. It''s a variety show that I''m planning to sell to the BBC. "

    "Oh..."

    Zach said he knew, but he didn''t ask again.

    damn!

    He didn''t ask any more, but he choked the blood out of Zhuke.

    Elder brother, why don''t you ask me any more? I haven''t shown it yet!

    If you do this, how can I pretend to be forced!

    Obviously, Zach Schneider can''t imagine how much benefit "the talent show" will bring to him.

    Hundreds of millions of dollars!

    .......

    meanwhile.

    In a fox office in the 20th century, there are two people gritting their teeth and yelling at Zhuke for being unkind.

    "Independence day''s online peripherals sold nearly $6 million in 20 days?"

    "According to the revenue ratio, Wald pictures will make at least $2 million this month."

    "Damn it! We''ve lost a lot of money! "

    "Yes, we shouldn''t have only charged $1 million for licensing fees at the beginning. We should have doubled it. No, or we shouldn''t have sold licensing. We''re 20th century fox. If we run it, then the sales of independence day''s online peripherals will definitely exceed $6 million! "

    They regret it!

    But it''s too late to wake up!

    As much as $30 million in liquidated damages, they are unable to default at all. Seeing his big fat meat eaten by Zhuke, the feeling was not to mention how oppressive.

    They hate Zucker in their hearts!

    If Zhuke were here, he would tell them to stop it, man, because it''s independence day. It''s the box office champion in North America this year. If you switch to other films, can you see if it can sell well online?

    I want to fart!

    It''s impossible to switch to another film.

    Of course, they don''t think so at the moment. What they thought was that Zhuke took advantage of his family!

    Time goes by.

    In the twinkling of an eye, a week passed.

    The staff who went to the UK to negotiate the copyright of "talent show" returned to Los Angeles, bringing bad news.

    "You mean BBC people are interested in our talent show, but they don''t want to pay much?" Said Zhuk, looking at Martha in front of him.

    Sister Martha nodded and said, "yes, they have a firm attitude. It''s impossible for them to share advertising. Even if they buy copyright, they can''t exceed 3 million pounds."

    Three million pounds?!

    Send the beggar away!

    "If I remember correctly, the British sold the copyright fee of" talent show "to NBC TV station in the United States for as much as $70 million." Zucker couldn''t help cursing the BBC for being shameless.

    How to break the game?

    Zucker was immediately lost in thought.

    "The first watch" is presented.
