After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

Judging from the quality of the film they have experienced, as long as the film has a good schedule and the number of big screens, 100% will not lose money.

Jeff Robinoff came to Kevin's side with a smile.

"Congratulations, you have successfully produced another excellent work."

Shay also leaned over and said:

"Director Kevin, the total box office of the chainsaw has been released. I just take this opportunity to settle the bill for you today?"

The quality of Kevin's new movie has been recognized during their internal review. In this case, Kevin, who can continuously produce high-quality movies, naturally has a different status in their eyes.

Normally, if the box office share of a movie can be settled within one year after the movie is released, it is considered that the film company has no intention of cheating them.

In the face of Kevin, only three months after it was released, New Line Films took the initiative to hand over the box office share to him.

It has to be said that this represents the importance New Line Films attaches to him.

At the same time, it also represents the importance that New Line Films attaches to the cooperation with him.

Facing Xinxian's kindness, Kevin naturally would not refuse.

It was released in North America for three months, which also means that the global box office has come out. The total global box office score of 600 million US dollars is the total score achieved by the chainsaw.

The 5.00% box office share means about 800 million US dollars in share, which is also a considerable amount. Of course, this amount is far from enough for New Line Films to turn against him.

With Kevin's ability, continuing to cooperate will only help them earn an unknown number of 800 million.

Therefore, not only did not do any tricks, but the speed of the account was also fast enough.

Otherwise, this amount will be stranded for one or two years, and there will also be a lot of interest.

After New Line Film Company got the share of the money, Kevin also had no free time in the next days. Under Kevin's insistence, the schedule was chosen to be released on May [-]st.

After investigation, no blockbuster movies were released at this point in time.

Or maybe there is, but it’s coming to an end, and theaters are gradually reducing the number of their films.

Throughout North America, there are probably less than 2 movie theaters, and the number of big screens exceeds [-] yuan.

At the beginning of its release, Chainsaw was directly qualified to be screened in 800 movie theaters. In fact, the scale is already very large.

The follow-up film schedule is the cinema's own adjustments based on the chainsaw.

Being able to obtain such a large scale of release is naturally because of the major investments at that time and the sequel movies have already been released.

There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey himself is king.

Of course, this is inseparable from the channels of New Line Films in North America.

It is not possible for any film company to show it in so many theaters at the same time. Having this kind of channel means that the scale of the company is at least a medium-to-large scale in Hollywood.

As for the Big Five in Hollywood, the biggest difference between them and other film companies is actually their overseas distribution. Of course, their own theaters are also their advantage.

The Big Five have complete overseas distribution capabilities. If a film is a big hit in North America, if you want to earn profits overseas, you must cooperate with them.

Otherwise, at most they can only make as much money as North America.

This is the reason why the Big Five can be called the Big Five.

......

"In three days, there will be a screening meeting for Escape from Deadly Town?"

Harvey Weinstein's face darkened when he received the news, and he still vividly remembered what happened at the party in Beverly Hills.

Since founding Miramax, Steve Kevin was the first person who made him feel so uncomfortable.

Rubbing his chin, he stood on the tall building of the company and looked out from the glass.

Harvey Weinstein is thinking about tripping up Steve Kevin.

At least he can't make him so proud, there is no one who dares to reject Harvey Weinstein without paying any price.

But to be more specific, we still have to wait for the screenings to find specific questions based on his movies.

In this regard, Harvey Weinstein is very relieved, he still knows a lot of film critics.

-------------------------------------

Three days later, Warner Bros. headquarters.

Some middle-aged white people who were very formally dressed and looked like elites walked into the building one after another.

These people are famous film critics with a certain reputation throughout the United States, and each of them has a certain influence on movie fans' choice of movies.

A total of forty or fifty film critics will cost millions of public relations fees.

From this investment, it is enough to know Warner Bros.'s confidence in escaping from Deadly Town. Of course, the cost of publicity and distribution is also shared by Kevin and New Line Films.

In addition to film critics, some media reporters are also being invited.

The normal film screening process is usually a trial screening, that is, an internal viewing meeting.

Used to make a preliminary quality assessment of the movie.

When the quality of the film is sufficient, the second screening is on-demand. At this time, all professionals who are helpful to the promotion of the film are invited.

After the screening is over, create a good reputation for the film.

Then came the premiere and the official screening.

The screening does not require Kevin's participation, just when the film critics participate in the screening of the film, after getting a share of the box office of 800 US dollars from New Line Films.

Kevin came to the headquarters of a comic publisher.

...

The boss of Marvel, Perelman, heard that a well-known director came to ask for an interview, and agreed curiously.

Inside the office of the boss of Marvel Comics.

With a Mediterranean hairstyle, wearing a standard suit, and smoking a cigar, Kevin's first impression was that the person in front of him was a very successful rich man.

In fact it is.

身家超过十亿美元的罗纳德·佩雷尔曼，在未来的2020年4月6日，将会以1000亿元人民币财富名列《胡润全球百强企业家》第83位。

There is no doubt that a rich man of his level is not always in a certain industry.

Marvel Comics was acquired by him two years ago. After two years of operation, he finally listed the successful operation of Marvel Comics.

Chapter 31

And he spent close to 9000 million US dollars to acquire more than 70% of the shares, which undoubtedly brought him several times the benefits.

He is very optimistic about Marvel, and at this time he is ambitiously seeking a better development for Marvel.

The sudden arrival of a well-known director gave him a little more inspiration.

...

"Hi, I'm Steve Kevin."

Ronald Perelman nodded with a proud smile, which was the confidence and confidence that wealth brought him.

"You are looking for me, what's the matter?"

"I want to buy a part of the shares of Marvel Comics."

Ronald Perelman was a little stunned, and a little dumbfounded.

"For things like shares, you can go directly to the stock exchange to buy them. Why are you looking for me here?"

Kevin smiled lightly:

"Sorry, I took the liberty."

After all, Kevin left.

Ronald Perelman looked dazed, completely unaware of the reason for Kevin's sudden move.

But the director and Marvel...

Ronald Perelman had the idea for a Marvel movie.

...

Walking out of Marvel Comics, Kevin recalled the eyeliner he had just installed in Marvel Comics.

He found an ordinary employee and asked her to convey the news of Marvel to him on time at the cost of an additional $2000 a month.

Marvel Corporation went bankrupt in 1996, but Marvel Corporation's performance began to decline, which actually started with the development of Internet and TV media in 1993.

Kevin, who had the appetite to swallow Marvel in one bite, just set up the next round in advance.

But with the understanding just now, Kevin also became anxious.

After Marvel Entertainment went public under Ronald Perelman's operation, its value at this time was at least around [-] million U.S. dollars, which can be regarded as a behemoth.

Even if it goes bankrupt, without 2 million or 3 million US dollars, he can't get involved.

Of course, part of the copyright IP is naturally fine, but this is not what Kevin wants.

What he wants is the Marvel Universe worth tens of billions in the future, not a single IP.

This is the biggest piece of cake that Kevin knows.

There is a saying that Kevin has always kept firmly in mind, don’t make money beyond what you know, because Kevin can’t win others in finance.

As for what bitcoin is, it's just a game for the rich to beat the drums and pass the flowers.

If the bankers who create bitcoins cannot maximize their profits, they can destroy bitcoins in minutes, making them worthless.

Kevin doesn't even want to touch these things.

There are also stocks, which are also a rich man's game.

Most of those who do not have enough network resources to participate in the stock game will only become leeks harvested by the dealer.

Kevin, who suffered a lot from stock trading in his previous life, is also not interested in stock trading at all.

Unless he is the banker himself.

So in the field of movies, the biggest cake Kevin knows is Marvel.

No one knows the power of Marvel IP better than him.

He who has mastered the successful route of Marvel, as long as he obtains Marvel, everything can be reproduced perfectly.

...

In the Warner Bros. screening room.

The screening of Escape from Deadly Town has ended. Judging from the expressions of film critics, as a commercial film, Escape from Deadly Town is already above the pass line.

At least these middle-aged white people did not feel too much discomfort because of the black male lead.

Instead, he was attracted into the plot, followed the protagonist to discover the horror hidden in Jueming Town, and finally escaped from Jueming Town.

..

The next day, countless newspapers uniformly published countless praise movie reviews.

"Escape from Deadly Town, a rare low-cost masterpiece, director Steve Kevin continues his unique and special style that makes people think. If the chainsaw is to make people cherish life, then escape from The town of life completely reflects the arrogance and discrimination hidden in the hearts of white Americans."

"There is God's thought in his mind, and this is Steve Kevin. In my opinion, Escape from Deadly Town is definitely not just a commercial film. It contains director Kevin's vision for this land. A reflection on the injustice of the fate of black people.”

"Cool, this is a must-see movie for black people. White people don't have to watch it, but if black people don't watch it, then I can say that if you deviate from your race and speak out for black people, black people will definitely support you. Come on." , Director Kevin."

"A thriller mixed with black humor and a horror plot. The plot hints at white people's unintentional discrimination against black people. It is not a prejudice to think that black people should be physically strong. Woolen cloth."

"..."

In Kevin's villa, Angelina Jolie was lying beside Kevin happily, reading the movie reviews in the newspaper for Kevin.

Touching Julie's body, feeling the tender touch, Kevin's sage state is slowly receding.

This young body possesses endless energy, coupled with the stronger needs of white women in this regard, so that both Kevin and Julie can be satisfied.

Salma Hayek is busy among the various crews.

With Salma Hayek's looks, it's easy to get some mid-to-lower female second roles. As for the first female lead, she still needs a masterpiece.

In this regard, Kevin also planned for her.

But now is not the time.
