Ace Hollywood

Daniel did not expect that there would be an opportunity to meet this high-ranking official. In fact, he was quite excited when shaking hands. After all, this person would have been the number one person in this huge country a few years ago, even if Daniel can call now. If you go straight to the White House, you will still be in awe of the mysterious high-level world.

The other party said that he had seen many of his works, especially The Pianist, and lamented the chaos of war and the harm to ordinary people. He said that China felt the same way. The conversation between the two sides spanned a wide range, from Hollywood movies, to the work of the UNHCR, to cooperation with Chinese companies, etc. His understanding of Daniel is quite surprising, whether he read the material temporarily or not, it is enough Be careful.

Of course, the meeting between Daniel and him was not just for small talk, not to mention this one, even Daniel didn't have time for small talk.

This time, Daniel came to make connections for Disney. Of course, Disney also has its own channels in China, but in terms of heavyweights, Daniel is not as good as him. So, this time Robert Iger asked him to come forward to make a connection.

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

Daniel is willing to take over the commission, of course, because both parties actually have a positive attitude towards this cooperation. It is imperative for Disney to develop 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. Hong Kong’s The park earns a lot of money, but the land port still has a pass after all. Many people are trapped by this condition and give up going to Disneyland. If there is a Disneyland in mainland China, the profit prospect can be expected.

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

so. In terms of willingness, there is no problem between the two parties, but more details need to be discussed during the specific progress process. Hence, Daniel's matchmaking. Strictly speaking, I just hope that the senior officials in Shanghai can cooperate more in the specific work in the future, and the meeting itself has a greater symbolic meaning.

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

...

Daniel returned to Los Angeles directly from Shanghai, and did not go to Europe to join the main creators of Transformers, because the later work on Avatar started. James Cameron is not someone who can be let go. Avatar itself is enough to waste time. It will be completed in the post-production stage, at least until next year or two years, so James is not allowed to be delayed-because he has to give him He left room for delaying the completion of the project, which was almost inevitable with his practice of striving for perfection.

However, the global trend of Transformers has been ignited.

Especially in mainland China, where Daniel personally participated, breaking through 100 million in three days and 200 million in a week. Abuse Spider-Man 3 into scum.

Both the mainland media and the international news agencies began to compare it with Titanic, which had a box office of 360 million. So far it is the box office record holder in the Mainland. However, it should be noted that Titanic was the first movie with a global billion-level film history, and the box office capacity of mainland China that year was

Much smaller than today.

In the fast-growing Chinese film market, there should have been works that surpassed Titanic. Unfortunately, domestic productions such as Hero failed to achieve this goal, and Hollywood blockbusters such as Lord of the Rings did not. It has failed to replace its predecessors. Transformers carries the aftermath of Daniel Sandler's three Oscars and the nostalgic thoughts of a generation of Chinese people. At present, it seems that it is the most promising film to achieve this goal. However, We still expect domestic films to break this record.

——Beijing Daily.

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

Transformers has been 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 of the year has greatly increased. According to the curve, it is a sure thing to continue to harvest 20 million. In the next period of time, 27 Fox's The Simpsons is the only contender, followed by Bourne Bourne 3 on August 3 and Marvel Studios' The Incredible Hulk, but that's 10 days away In the future, it will have no effect on the box office of Transformers ending.

So, in observers' comments, what needs attention now is whether Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix will suddenly throw off Transformers, which was released a week earlier than it, so far, although the latter is only in the single-day Second, but the gap between the two sides is not that big. On Monday, 23rd, Order of the Phoenix cut about 4.5 million, and Transformers also reached 3.3 million. This weekend, it won at least 15 million or more, helping it hit the number of Spider-Man, or even a higher 400 million-that is, Daniel's previous target number.

On the 23rd, the box office statistics website -b account, while publishing last weekend's box office, also talked about this point jokingly.

We should wake up and question Daniel's predictions. The final result is always to slap ourselves in the face. 400 million, this astonishing number, is very likely to appear. The first big production of DD Films will receive unprecedented Success, we even began 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 pace of creating legends, which is both happy , making people lose again.”

Compared with the outside world's grand attention to Transformers, Daniel paid more attention to The Incredible Hulk and Bourne Shadow 3 when he was not working on Avatar. Summer time, this is nothing new. In particular, the previous Transformers and Order of the Phoenix are almost exhausted, and the box office space is still expected.

What Daniel is concerned about, of course, is the results of Invincible Hulk-whether it will usher in a defeat as expected.

The acquisition intention of DD Films is ready. Once Marvel starts to bear the pressure, the efforts here will be truly implemented. Winning this treasure trove of material is crucial to maintaining the competitiveness of DD Films in the next ten years. important. The Plutos company with strong financial resources will also provide a solid guarantee for this acquisition.

Daniel is confident! (To be continued.)
