Thirteen million dollars?
Zou Wenhuai’s office
When he heard this number, Zou Wenhuai’s whole person was confused.
“Jingwumen” landed in North America and directly cut down the box office of 13 million US dollars.
In Midi, this is already a work that can be regarded as quite a sale.
As soon as Robert saw Bruce Lee and Lin Li, the whole person directly gave Bruce Lee a big hug.
“Bruce, Lin!” Robert said excitedly: “Congratulations, the box office of “Jingwumen” in North America is out!” ”
Lin Li and Bruce Lee were slightly stunned at the same time, and then, Bruce Lee couldn’t help but speak: “How much is the North American box office?” ”
“Thirteen million!” Robert spoke excitedly, “How, Bruce? Am I right? Your kung fu movies really caused the trend of kung fu! ”
“Great!” Bruce Lee couldn’t help but shout: “Thirteen million US dollars at the box office, how many Hong Kong dollars does this have to be?” ”
On June 23, 1972, due to the impact of the violent turmoil in the international monetary system (the dollar and gold were effectively decoupled, and the Bretton Woods system centered on the dollar began to collapse), the Ying government announced that the pound sterling was decoupled from the dollar, and the exchange rate was free to float, free-floating the exchange rate, and got rid of the shackles of the fixed exchange rate system.
Yingguo’s actions directly affect Hong Kong, as the Hong Kong dollar has always been anchored by the pound sterling. The British government announced on July 6, 1972 that the Hong Kong dollar was decoupled from the pound sterling and changed to be directly linked to the US dollar, and the official fixed exchange rate was set at 1 US dollar = 5.65 Hong Kong dollars.
According to the current exchange ratio of US dollars and Hong Kong dollars, this is a box office of 74 million Hong Kong dollars! ”
Zou Wenhuai saw it in his eyes, but his heart was full of mixed tastes.
Of the 74 million Hong Kong dollars, Warner Bros. will take 37 million, and the remaining 37 million, 18.5 million will be Bruce Lee’s, and he will take out more than 3 million to Lin Li at that time.
Only 15 million actually got it.
It’s almost Ip Man’s box office.
If it weren’t for Lin Li, it wasn’t Bruce Lee, it would be a wonderful thing to get 40 million directly.
However, Zou Wenhuai still suppressed the unhappiness in his heart and said with a smile: “Ali, Xiaolong, I really want to congratulate you, Jingwumen is now a big sale in North America!” ”
Lin Li glanced at Zou Wenhuai, but in his heart he pondered, if Jiahe did not directly give himself a piece of the pie, 20 million, wouldn’t this be a good thing.
In any case, he finally made two million.
On the other side, Robert was still speaking, “Bruce, frankly speaking, I have also pinched a cold sweat at the beginning, at first Warner Bros. did not intend to give you too many pieces, but, what we didn’t expect was that it soon attracted the attention of a large number of Chinese, and then Warner increased the amount of films!” ”
“Hahaha!” Speaking of this, Robert couldn’t help but laugh: “This group of stupid guys, if they listen to my advice early and increase the number of films, the actual box office will be higher!” ”
“In any case, thank you, Robert, for letting more people see my Jeet Kune Do and see the kung fu that belongs to our Huaxia!” Bruce Lee also looked at Robert sincerely.
North American box office, this is a bonus.
I am fortunate to gain it, but I am to lose my life!
Bruce Lee can naturally see it, he also has this mind and temperament, otherwise he would not have lowered his head and let Lin Li write the script for himself.
Lin Li was a little calm, and then slowly spoke: “Then what about my ‘This Killer’ is not too cold?” ”
“Just about to say yours, Lin!” Robert’s opening said, “About you, “This Killer is Not Too Cold” is currently ranked after “Jingwumen”! ”
“Placed after Jingwumen?” Lin Li nodded: “So, it’s about to be released?” ”
“Actually, after Warner’s executives have seen your movie, Lin, your movie, they should appreciate it more!” Robert looked at Lin Li and smiled and said, “Compared with the action of martial arts, they should appreciate the story of “This Killer Is Not Too Cold” more!” ”
“Very, attractive!” Robert slowly spoke: “So, we think that your movie will be even better, so it is ranked behind “Jingwumen”, on the other hand, we are also carrying out certain publicity!” ”
Lin Li was slightly stunned, but he didn’t expect his treatment to be so good.
In fact, this is also a normal “This killer is not too cold”, in fact, the core is still a Western story, and it is also a movie shot from a Western perspective.
In this way, it is also more appreciated by Warner’s top management.
However, the popularity of Jingwumen was absolutely unexpected, and before it became popular, no one would have thought that Kung Fu would have such a great influence.
You know, even Hollywood, in Hollywood in the seventies and eighties, their fights can only be described by these four words.
It was not until the nineties, after the end of Xiangjiang’s film industry, a large number of Xiangjiang’s behind-the-scenes staff left Hollywood, which allowed Hollywood to quickly absorb the essence of kung fu films.
In this era, seeing the transformed “Jingwumen” is definitely a great visual feast for the Americans.
“So, I’m coming over this time!” Robert slowly spoke: “Mainly on behalf of Warner Bros.: “Invite the two to Midi, if you can, Warner Bros. wants to cooperate with the two in depth!” ”
Zou Wenhuai couldn’t help but frown.
The two Robert said were Lin Li and Bruce Lee, but did not include Jiahe, he had thought that Lin Li and Bruce Lee were not things in the pool, but he never expected that the two of them actually flew so fast.
If this really allowed the two generals under his command to leave like this, wouldn’t he have to lose a lot?
In particular, now, Zou Wenhuai suddenly realized that perhaps, it is still a big box office in North America, and Xiangjiang’s films may not be able to land in North America, and once the box office is a big hit.
The money earned may be more than that of Xiangjiang.
“In addition to Lin Li and Bruce Lee, we must cultivate some new talents!” Zou Wenhuai said in his heart.
Lin Li and Bruce Lee looked at each other.
Then Lin Li slowly spoke, “I have no opinion, Brother Xiaolong, what about you?” ”
“Me too!” Bruce Lee also nodded.
Robert dissipated: “That’s great, two, if you can, how about we go to Midi in three days?” ”
“Of course you can!” Lin Li nodded: “Exactly, in these three days, I will also prepare!” ”
