Ace Hollywood

Daniel did not expect that there would be a chance to meet this high-ranking official. In fact, when he shook hands, he was quite excited. After all, this person would be the number one person in this huge country a few years ago, even if Daniel is now on the phone. If you hit the White House directly, you will still be in awe of the mysterious high-level world.

The other party said that he had read a lot of his works, especially "The Pianist". He lamented the dazzling war and the harm to ordinary people. He said that China felt the same way. During World War II, China also suffered from it. The conversation between the two sides spanned a lot, from Hollywood movies, to the work of UNHCR, to cooperation with Chinese companies, etc. His understanding of Daniel was quite surprising, whether he read the material temporarily or not, it was enough. Careful.

Of course, the meeting between Daniel and him was not just a small talk, not to mention this one, even Daniel had no time for small talk.

This time, Daniel is here to help Disney. Of course, Disney also has its own channels in China, but when it comes to heavyweights, Daniel is not as good as Daniel. After all, he has made several appearances at high-level Chinese officials because of "technology benefits all living beings". So, this time Robert Iger asked him to come forward to match.

Discuss Disney's project to build a Disneyland in Shanghai.

Daniel is happy to accept the commission, of course, because both parties have a positive attitude towards this cooperation. It is imperative for Disney to explore the Chinese market. Compared with the movie box office market, the mainland tourism market with 1.3 billion people is even more coveted by Disney. The park makes a lot of money, but the land port still has a pass. Many people are trapped in this condition, so they give up going to Disneyland. If there is a Disneyland in mainland China, the profit prospects can be expected.

From Shanghai, owning a Disneyland is good for shaping its reputation as a global metropolis. Disney has only five Disneyland parks in the world so far, not to mention California in the United States and Orlando, Florida. Tokyo, Paris, and Hong Kong are all world-class cities in the true sense, and Shanghai is among them, which is of course extremely attractive.

so. In terms of willingness, there is no problem between the two sides, but there are more details to be discussed in the specific advancement process. Hence, Daniel's matchmaking. Strictly speaking, I just hope that the senior officials in Shanghai can cooperate more in the specific work later, and the meeting itself is more symbolic.

When he was parting, the senior official invited Daniel to come to China to watch the Olympic Games in August next year. Daniel readily agreed. The meeting between the two sides was quite pleasant.

……

Daniel returned to Los Angeles directly from Shanghai, and did not go to Europe to meet with the creators of "Transformers", because the later work of "Avatar" began. James Cameron is not someone who can be put on pigeons. "Avatar" itself is a waste of time. All the later stages will be completed, at least until next year and the next year, so James is not allowed to be delayed - because he has to give it to him. It was almost inevitable that he would leave room for delayed completion, with his habit of striving for perfection.

However, the global trend of "Transformers" has been ignited.

Especially in mainland China, where Daniel went out personally, it broke 100 million in three days and 200 million in a week. Abuse "Spider-Man 3" into scum.

Both the mainland media and international news agencies have begun to compare it with "Titanic", which has a box office of 360 million. Up to now, it is the holder of the domestic box office record. However, it should be noted that "Titanic" is the first film in the history of the world with a billion-dollar movie, and the box office capacity of mainland China was much smaller than today.

"In the fast-growing Chinese film market, it is long overdue that there will be more works than "Titanic". Unfortunately, domestic productions such as "Hero" have not been able to achieve this goal, and Hollywood blockbusters such as "Lord of the Rings" have also Failed to replace its predecessors. "Transformers", with Daniel Sandler's three Oscars, plus the nostalgic thoughts of a generation of Chinese, currently seems to be the most promising film to achieve this goal. However, We still expect a domestic film to break this record."

——"Jingcheng Daily".

After the 20th, France, Germany, Denmark, Japan, the United Kingdom and many other traditional ticket warehouse countries will be released one after another.

"Transformers" will be released in North America for nearly 20 days, and the box office will exceed 330 million. The possibility of it becoming the box office champion this year is greatly increased. According to the curve, it is a sure thing to continue to harvest 20 million. In the next period of time, 27 No. Fox's The Simpsons is the only competitive film, followed by The Bourne 3 on August 3rd and Marvel Studios' The Incredible Hulk, but that's ten days In the future, it will have no impact on the box office of "Transformers".

So, in the comments of observers, what needs to be paid attention to now is whether "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" will suddenly throw off "Transformers", which was released a week earlier than it, although the latter is only a single day. Second, but the gap between the two sides is not that big. On Monday, the 23rd, "Order of the Phoenix" scored about 4.5 million, and "Transformers" also reached 3.3 million. Such a curve will allow "Transformers" to still be in fourth place under the impact of "The Simpsons". This weekend, it won at least 15 million or more, helping it to hit the number of "Spider-Man"~www.readwn.com~ or even higher 400 million-that is, Daniel's previous target number.

On the 23rd, on the account of box office statistics website -b, while publishing last weekend's box office, he also talked about this with a smile.

"We should wake up and question Daniel's predictions. The final result is always slapped in the face. 400 million, this astonishing number, is very likely to appear. The first big production of DD Pictures will receive an unprecedented amount of money. Success, even we are beginning to look forward to whether "Transformers" will change this ranking again after "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" rushed to the second place in film history. Daniel, still has not stopped his own pace of creating legends, which is both satisfying , and disappointing.”

Compared with the outside world's grand attention to "Transformers", Daniel paid more attention to "The Incredible Hulk" and "The Bourne 3" after his work in "Avatar". The two blockbusters were released on the same day, which is a bit rare, but in Summer time, this is nothing new. In particular, the previous "Transformers" and "Order of the Phoenix" will be exhausted, and the box office space is still expected.

Daniel is concerned, of course, with the results of "The Incredible Hulk" - will it usher in a rout as expected.

The acquisition intention of dd Pictures is ready. Once Marvel starts to bear the pressure, the efforts here will be in the real implementation stage. Winning this treasure trove of materials will be the best way to maintain the competitiveness of dd Pictures for the next ten years. important. And Plutos, which has strong financial resources, will also provide a solid guarantee for this acquisition.

Daniel is confident! (To be continued.)
