Chapter 1182 (1/2)
In a residential apartment in the mountains of Santa Monica, north of daenerys studios.
In the twinkling of an eye, it was October 3.
Amy, who entered October, certainly knew.
Because it's an ultra-low-cost small film, what she signed at the beginning was not a fixed salary, but a weekly salary contract at the lowest level. It was only $1000 a week, and only $8000 after the film was finished.
Jessica is paid less as a supporting role.
So, just before the premiere in Toronto last month, the two women were still working as waiters in Santa Monica to earn money.
Amy was a little sour at the thought.
A few days ago, they had quietly checked the contract, and neither of them had any sharing terms.
In private, Lin Yibin also asked.
Because it's an ultra-low cost experimental project, it's not covered by the labor union's stipulation that it must be attached with a sharing clause. What's more, they didn't join the labor union at that time, and the brokerage company is handling this matter recently.
Now, danelis entertainment can net hundreds of millions of dollars only by relying on the box office in North America. Is it not too much to give yourself a million dollars?
Unfortunately, there is not a word.
Jessica noticed Amy's expression, understood something, and said, ”actually, everyone is like this. Schwarzenegger had a box office week from September 26 to October 2.
First place, ghost record has no suspense, with $59.63 million, which directly broke the box office record in September in Hollywood history.
Then, DreamWorks pictures' doomsday alert ranked second, with a box office of $13.67 million in the first week.
Although it's the runner up, considering the $50 million blockbuster production cost of ”doomsday alert”, it made $13.67 million in the first week. It's also a commercial film with poor reputation. It's impossible to go out for a long time, and the final box office may only be about 25 million. Obviously, it's strongly impacted by ”ghost movie”, and doomsday alert's total box office is expected to be the largest in China than DreamWorks The initial 40 million box office fell a lot.
The third place came back to Denise entertainment.
”The six heroes of the light pig”, which set a 15 + box office record in the UK in August, started painting in North America on September 12. After $22.96 million in the first week, it continued to earn $16.3 million in the next week.
In the past three weeks, the production budget of this small film was only 2 million pounds. In the face of the impact of ”ghost record”, the box office dropped by 36%. However, the box office still made $10.43 million a week, ranking third on the list.
In the past three weeks, the box office of ”six heroes of the pig” in North America has totaled 49.69 million US dollars, and it is estimated that the total box office in North America will be about 70 million US dollars. Although it's not as good as the 62 million pounds that the UK has finished with 95 million US dollars, considering the cost, it's also a real black horse at the box office.
Fourth place, also from Daniels entertainment.
This is a remake of Ang Lee's ”eating men and women”, a pure black film called ”food for the soul”. It tells the story of black culture through a black family's weekend dinner. The director George Tillman Jr. is black, and one of the heroines is the famous ”steel bone” girlfriend Harry berry.
The film, produced by gaomen film, was released a week before ghost record, with 1336 screens and a media comprehensive score of 8.1. With the help of Ang Lee, who became more famous after crouching tiger, hidden dragon, to promote the film on the platform, the box office of the film in the first week was more than ten thousand, with a revenue of 14.32 million US dollars.
The production cost of the film was only $7.5 million, compared with the initial expectation of $20 million. The revenue of 14.32 million in the first week not only directly recovered the production investment, but also directly doubled the initial expectation of gaomen film. Relying on the long-term reputation, it is expected to hit the threshold of 50 million.
It's a pity that ”food for the soul” met ”ghost record” the next week.
In the face of the strength of ghost record, the team of gaomen film originally predicted that the next week's slight decline might be about 20%, and eventually expanded to 37%. The next week's revenue from September 26 to October 2 would eventually be $9.02 million.
In two weeks, ”food for the soul” grossed $23.34 million.
Of course, it is still quite outstanding, but in the face of the continuous pressure of ghost, the North American box office of soul food is likely to stop at less than 40 million.
