Chapter 495 (1/2)

Simon's last song ”bad romance” left to Madonna helped queen McGregor create another album with sales exceeding 10 million in North America.

So whenever she had a chance, Madonna would try to ask Simon for a song.

As one of the top singers of this era, after listening to paradise, Queen Mai immediately realized the gold content of the song. Although it's not suitable for her style, it's enough for any singer to make a hot album.

Later, she learned that Simon would write several theme songs for the show. Madonna immediately pestered the man to listen to other songs.

Simon has no choice but to let Queen Mai do what he wants.

Of course, although there are also songs that are more suitable for Madonna's style, Simon still insists on keeping the fat and water out of the field.

With the continuous rehearsal of the Weimi show, news about several songs will inevitably appear in the media.

Danielis entertainment is just noncommittal about this. This show, which lasts for several months, will continue to release all kinds of revelations, such as who joined the team, who became the spokesperson of the show, the release of angel wings, background music information of the t-channel, potential guests, tickets of the show, etc.

Through a series of continuous exposure lasting for half a year, before the big show officially opened, the brand awareness of Weimi will go up to a higher level.

This is also the fundamental purpose of this marketing operation.

July 31, the last day of July, another Friday.

Summer season is coming to an end. On this day, a total of two films have been registered in North American Theaters, namely, Paramount Pictures' fantasy space, which combines real people with animation, and fox's Vampire Horror Film Buffy the vampire hunter.

Paramount's ”illusory world” tells a series of ironic stories about the hero in order to stop the fusion of the real world and the cartoon world. The film is obviously following the original ”Who Framed Roger Rabbit”.

Simon pays more attention to Fox's Buffy the vampire hunter.

This vampire movie written by Jos waden is the origin of the later TV series ”Buffy the Vampire Hunter”. Joyce weden is also one of the important directors of Marvel movie universe on the original time line, directing two ”Avengers”.

Although he pays attention to Witten, Simon only regards him as a potential talent reserve for danielis entertainment for the time being.

In August, the summer archives are basically settled.

”Wonder Woman” is undoubtedly the winner of this summer camp.

As of July 30, the ninth week of release, wonder woman continued to earn $11.53 million, with a cumulative box office of $333.69 million.

Taking into account the decline curve of wonder woman in recent weeks and the box office base still reaching tens of millions in a single week, this superhero movie will earn at least $30 million in the future, and the cumulative box office in North America is expected to be between $360 million and $370 million.

”Wonder Woman” is followed by ”lethal weapon 3” starring Mel Gibson. The box office in North America has exceeded $140 million, and it is approaching the next stage.

Later, Disney's Aladdin gradually attracted the attention of the industry.

This 2D animated film is not brilliant at the beginning, but it is full of stamina, and the box office curve is very strong.

During the six weeks from June 19 to July 30, the cumulative box office of Aladdin has reached 128 million US dollars unconsciously. Although there is a big gap between Aladdin and wonder woman, its box office performance in this summer season is also second only to Lethal Weapon 3.

Disney's other reality comedy ”nuns are crazy” has become the studio's second summer blockbuster.

After careful calculation, in addition to danielis entertainment, Disney, which has two domestic movies with a box office of over 100 million, also has a good harvest in this summer season.

Denise Entertainment's ”peach trade”, ”time to kill” and ”the last Mohican” are also popular, but to be fair, the box office of all three films are about 100 million yuan, which are lower than Simon's expectation. What's more, the box office performance of the three films is largely due to the fact that they occupy too much resources for summer programs.

Of course, for a few collaborators, all three films have sold well enough.

Now, in the early 1990s, a film with a box office of 100 million yuan in North America is not so common.

In addition to the three cooperative films that have not yet reached their goals, only four films, magic woman, Lethal Weapon 3, Aladdin and nun madness, have really achieved more than $100 million.

Other films, such as Columbia Pictures' great ambition, fox's alien 3, Paramount's game of patriots and Disney's honey, I've made my kids big, are not cheap, but they can only be regarded as the accompaniment of other blockbusters.

In August, Simon went to Australia again.Another superhero film ”steel bone” under DC movie universe started shooting on August 3.

”Steel bone” is scheduled for the end of next year. It should not be so urgent, but Warner insists on starting shooting at this time, which can reserve enough time for the later stage and publicity of the film.

Simon, on the other hand, understands Warner's considerations.

Superman is still in the process of production. The shooting schedule of steel and Superman is two months away. Simon went to Australia during this period to follow up Superman. At the same time, he can't turn a blind eye to steel again.

Warner was right about Simon's integrity.

For a week to Australia, Simon's time is basically half of Superman and steel.

Janet came along as usual to see the little guy and keep an eye on her man.

Back in Los Angeles on August 10, Simon's last summer movie, unforgivable, has also sold at the box office in the first weekend.

Clint Eastwood's old-fashioned Western surprised Warner Bros. at the beginning. It earned $15.01 million three days in the first weekend, which exceeded the production cost of $14 million.

Moreover, considering the excellent reputation of the film and the not fierce competition in the late summer season, ”unforgivable” will easily make a beautiful long-term box office.

In my memory, ”unforgivable” is still the biggest winner of next year's Oscar, winning many awards such as best picture, best director and so on.

Of course, this year the Oscars have been handed over to Warner Bros., and Denise entertainment will not continue to hibernate next year.

Barbara Streisand, who won the award in the controversy by relying on ”the waves of time”, also consumed part of Warner's luck in the awards. In the voting process this year, the Oscar judges will obviously avoid Warner's works a little.

In a word, there are gains and losses.

Back in Los Angeles, David finch also handed Simon the budget for seven crimes.

As a director who has just finished a film work under many restrictions, Simon knows very well that the plan with the star recommendation list should be planned by the behind the scenes agency of finch, but he has not studied it deeply.
