Chapter 170: Dividing


The film's share is after various promotional cuts in theaters and Universal.What fell into Zhao Yuan's hands may not be as many as it seems on the surface, but it is at least tens of millions.Not to mention, in the subsequent DVD release, there is also a dividend income waiting for him.And, if you want to compare it with the film market.Smart: The performance of the ghost movie in the DVD market made Zhao Yuan look forward to it even more, because the key factor for the success of this movie in the original world is the hot sales revenue of the DVD market.In the United States, movie theater and offline DVDs are two completely different audiences, and many people may not go to the theater to watch a movie, but they will take time out of the video store to buy their favorite DVDs or videos to take home.Even, according to statistics, Hollywood's major film companies currently release DVDs and home videotapes with an annual revenue of $25 billion, which is almost three times the total box office revenue of theaters.Some time ago, the winner of the Oscar for Best Picture crash is the best example of this.The film didn't make much of a splash when it was released in theaters that year, but it long held the top spot in the DVD market for the most popular DVDs in the audio and video rental stores.To date, the film's total revenue from DVD sales and rentals has approached $140 million, far exceeding its $55 million theatrical box office receipts.From this, it is enough to see the vigorous development of the DVD market in the United States, which is why some time ago, the Hollywood Writers Guild put forward a request to change the DVD copyright share in the strike demand.The home video market has become one of the important industries supporting Hollywood.San Marino, on the other end of the phone.Zhao Yuan's thinking was moved: the follow-up division of the ghost record was pulled away.He thought about it, and based on the current revenue from the box office, he believed that it would not be long before he could move from the small Beverly Hills, where he now lives, to the real Beverly Hills.On the other hand, Ron Meyer was constantly courting Zhao Yuan on the phone.The success of many consecutive movies and TV series has proved Zhao Yuan's value.It can be said that at the moment he is one of the hottest existences in the whole of Hollywood.As far as Ron Mayer knows, many Hollywood film production companies have already taken a fancy to Zhao Yuan.Warner even threw out the intention of inviting Zhao Yuan to be the screenwriter of the last part of Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy.Although, inviting a screenwriter of a horror movie to create a superhero movie is a bit unreliable to look at it this way.However, this also shows Zhao Yuan's current popularity in Hollywood.In fact, one of the reporters who were squatting outside came because of Warner's news.As the hero of Batman, who rebooted the superhero movie, director Christopher Nolan obviously brought a satisfactory answer to Warner, and the first two parts caused more heat than imagined.However, the death of the previous work, Heath Ledger, casts a shadow over the third part of the film.Warners desperately needed a shot in the arm to bring life to the Batman franchise, and the horror-oriented Batman seemed to be a good choice.In some ways, Warner is worthy of the title of DC's enemy.Of course, it was not only Warner, Paramount, and Columbia who threw an olive branch to Zhao Yuan, but also invited him, promising that as long as he nodded, movies with an investment of less than 50 million could be shot at will.Among these studios, Disney is the only one that has not shown too much enthusiasm, or because it is clear that Zhao Yuan's horror genre itself does not match Disney's style.In short, after learning about the actions of these film companies, it is natural for Ron Mayer to express his due concern for Zhao Yuan, a great hero.It was even revealed on the phone that the screenwriter of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 will come down soon, you must know that Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 has not been released for a few weeks, and if Hollywood's normal sharing rate is used, this money will need to wait for several months of review before it will reach Zhao Yuan's hands."

In terms of filmmaking, I've always felt that working with Universal is very pleasant, so I don't have any other ideas at the moment, let alone Smart: Ghost Movie is still in theaters, and I don't want to put my energy into the idea of the next movie so quickly, ABC's Modern Family Script still needs me to check it" vaguely expressed to Ron Mayer that he has no plans to leave Universal at least for now.After ending the call, Zhao Yuan turned his head to look at the media reporters outside the house.With such a group of people following, although it has something to do with the popularity brought by recent movies.But it has also had a certain degree of impact on Zhao Yuan's daily life.At the very least, in this case, it is impossible for him to go jogging or go to the gym to exercise.Therefore, he shook his head and did not pay any more attention to the reporters who were squatting outside.Zhao Yuan flipped through his laptop and began to browse the comments on the Internet about Smart: Ghost Shadow.After a week or so of precipitation, the evaluation of Smart: Ghost Shadow Record on the Internet has basically not changed much.Sweeping over these comments, most of them are discussions on the plot of the movie, and many viewers have discovered various details left by Zhao Yuan in the movie, and some people have even deduced that the sequel after the ghost record may also be related to the haunted ghosts in the house.Obviously, more than a week after the movie was released, many viewers who watched the movie at the beginning also came back and knew that the ghost was in fact the same as the witch Blair, a pseudo-documentary type of movie, not a real story.However, in addition to these people, there are also many people on the Internet who believe that the existence of the ghost record is real.Eyes fall on one of the comments, insisting that everything about the film is true.Zhao Yuan's brows furrowed, and a vague script appeared in his heart.As a religious country, the United States has always been rife with various legends, and even some of its people do not believe in the existence of science until now, and these people, if you change to the past, may have been just one of the many skepticism on the Internet.However, this is no longer the case.Since they are so unwavering in their belief in the authenticity of this movie, how can Zhao Yuan, as their supporter, disappoint them.They are so eager for supernatural existence, it is natural to satisfy them.
