"Coconut shreds!" Chen Hao couldn't help but feel excited when he saw "Inception" finally surpassing the box office of "Avatar" and being crowned the box office champion of mainland film history.

The excited Chen Hao picked up Sister Shi in the waist and walked around again and again.

"Ah..." Sister Shi was scared and screamed, and at the same time she could clearly feel the excitement of the men around her.

"The box office champion in film history has finally won it!" Chen Hao laughed.

Sister Shi hugged Chen Hao tightly and said with a smile, "Congratulations, everything I want is fulfilled!"

Chen Hao laughed at the sound of this, "Congratulations, you have to take some practical actions!"

After hearing this, Sister Shi looked at Chen Hao's handsome face and changed her face, "No, I can't... Um..."

...

Another week passed, and December was coming.

In the past half a month, Sister Shi personally felt Chen Hao's strength. Whenever she fainted, she couldn't help thinking, it would be great if someone came to help.

She also completely understood that the man on her body could not belong to only one woman!

Because Chen Hao was going to leave North America and return to China, the annual meeting of Ryotianchi Film could only be advanced.

In the company's small office, Chen Hao, Smart, Kevin Feige and Benjamin were all present.

"Let me talk about Lynn Film first!" Smart said, "The company participated in the investment and production of 4 films in 2010, namely "Thor", "Captain America", "Fast and Furious 5" and "Twilight 3"!

There are also three company movies released this year, namely "Iron Man 2", "Dance from My Life 3" and "Twilight 3"!

"Iron Man 2" has an investment cost of US$200 million and a box office of US$312 million in North America, ranking third in North America's 2010 annual box office rankings, second only to "Toy Story 3" and "Alice in Wonderland"!

The box office outside North America was US$311 million, with a total global box office of US$623 million, ranking 7th in the 2010 global movie box office rankings!

The company received a North American box office share of $171.6 million. After taxes were removed, the company actually received $163.02 million.

Companies outside North America received a box office share of $108.85 million, excluding taxes, and actually received $92.52 million.

Excluding the investment cost of US$200 million, the company's net profit in box office was US$55.54 million.

"Dance My Life 3" has an investment cost of US$30 million, and we and Disney each spent half of the funds. The film's North American box office is 55.69 million, overseas box office is 45.31 million, and the global box office is 101 million!

Both the North American box office and overseas box office hit new lows. After discussions by the company, it was decided to sell the remaining half of the copyright to Disney.

This half of the copyright earns the company $35 million, and the company still enjoys half of the copyright of the first three parts of the series.

The company received a North American box office share of $13.92 million. After removing taxes, it actually received $13.22 million.

The overseas box office was divided into $7.9 million, and after taxes were removed, the actual amount was $6.73 million.

The company actually received a total of US$19.95 million, and after deducting investment costs, the box office net profit was US$4.95 million.

Finally, there is "Twilight 3", with an investment cost of US$65 million and a box office of US$301 million in North America, ranking 4th in the 2010 North American box office rankings!

The overseas box office was US$392.5 million, with a total global box office of US$693.5 million, ranking 6th in the 2010 global movie box office rankings!

The company received a North American box office share of $165.55 million, and after taxes were removed, it actually received $157.27 million.

The overseas box office was divided into US$137.375 million, and after taxes were removed, the actual amount was US$116.76 million.

The company received a total of US$274.03 million in box office share, and then removed the cost of 65 million, and the net profit of the box office was US$209.03 million.

The company's two movies this year, "Iron Man 2" and "Twilight 3", performed extremely well, ranking third and fourth in the North American box office rankings, and 6th and 7th in the global box office rankings!

This is unique among independent film companies, and is even more eye-catching than the performance of Hollywood giants!

Overall, in terms of film investment and production, the company invested a total of US$480 million in 2010 to produce four movies.

Three movies released won US$668.69 million in North America, US$748.81 million in overseas box office, and US$1.417.5 billion in global box office!

The company received a global box office share of US$601,519.5 million. After excluding taxes, it actually received US$549.52 million, excluding investment costs of RMB480 million, and the box office net profit was US$69.52 million!"

Smart immediately said, "The company could have received more box office share in 2010, but the three A-level productions with a total investment of 415 million yuan will not be released until next year."

Everyone nodded after hearing this, obviously they all knew it was "Thor", "Captain America" ​​and "Fast and Furious 5"!

"Continue!" Chen Hao said.

"Then there is the revenue generated by the company's release of videos. In 2010, the company dominated or participated in the release of 12 videos, an increase of 20% over last year.

After removing the publicity and distribution expenses, a total profit of US$46 million was made, and after taxes, the net profit of US$43.7 million was made.

By the way, the company's current issuance capacity has expanded to about 2,500 companies, an increase of about 200 companies over last year.

In addition, the company's film library and other copyright revenue has brought a total of US$45 million in revenue to the company through the distribution channels of Sony Columbia.

After taxation was removed, the company's net profit of copyright revenue in 2010 was US$42.75 million!" Smart said.

Chen Hao nodded after hearing this, and he gained a lot in terms of distribution and film library revenue, which was obviously because the distribution capabilities and film library of Ryotianchi Film are gradually growing.

"Let me talk about the company's expenditure in 2010. First, the company's loans and debts were 15.3 million yuan, the debts were 50 million yuan, plus the company's rent, wages and other expenses were 3.5 million yuan, totaling US$68.8 million.

Including all expenditures and profits, the company's actual net profit in 2010 was US$87.17 million!" Smart said.

Chen Hao nodded after hearing this. The company's 2010 can be said to be entirely supported by the two movies "Iron Man 2" and "Twilight 3".

Especially in "Twilight 3", the net profit is even more than "Iron Man 2".

Fortunately, I won this hot series of movies at that time, otherwise the quasi-chip film industry, which opened the Marvel superhero movie universe, would have to continue to transfusions.

Fortunately, there is a last episode in the "Twilight" series, and the company is preparing to divide it into two episodes. In addition, another major series "The Hunger Games" is about to be launched.

It should be able to alleviate the huge investment cost pressure of Lvtianchi Film.

After looking at Chen Hao, Smart continued, "The next one is the film investment and production plan of Ryotianchi Pictures in 2011, and the company will invest in and produce 6 films next year.

These are the Hunger Games with an investment of 78 million, the Avengers with an investment of 200 million, the Twilight 4 with an investment of 1.5 million, the Hidden (The Hollow House), the Hangover 2 with an investment of 20 million, and the Saw 7 with an investment of 20 million!

The six films will invest a total of up to US$579.5 million, an increase of 20.72% from this year's 480 million.

In addition, the company also needed to repay a bank loan of $15.3 million in 2011, Marvel's debt of $70 million, and other costs of $3.5 million.

That is to say, the company's current expenditure in 2011 will reach $668.3 million!”

Chen Hao nodded slowly when he heard this. The investment next year will be as high as US$668.3 million, which is not a small amount, especially for an independent film company, the risk is extremely high.

"Is the company's account plus the money that has not yet been received enough?" Chen Hao asked frowned.-3200

“The company now has $635.97 million in its account, which is still $32.33 million away from next year’s budget.

However, the budget doesn’t need to be all out at once. You can take out part of it first, and then wait for the box office of the movie to be released first to be divided, so that you can still turn around.” Smart said.

Chen Hao was relieved when he heard this. Chen Hao was very satisfied with his ability to invest in Vector Tianchi Pictures with a total investment of up to 668.3 million US dollars.

However, it can be seen that the financial pressure on Ringtianchi Film has been very high. This year, it will not only include "Twilight 4", but also launch "The Hunger Games" and "Hangover 2", and Wan Ziren also returns to the director position and starts filming the low-cost thriller "Luxing".

It can be seen that the company urgently needs videos that are not too expensive but have great box office prospects to alleviate huge financial pressure.

"Benjamin, let's talk about the future 3D!" Chen Hao said directly.

Benjamin heard this and said, "In 2010, the company's 3D movie projection system has sold a total of 408 sets of projection equipment, an increase of 70% year-on-year.

Among them, 200 units were sold to mainland China and 208 units were sold in mainland China.

The price of each 3D projection equipment is US$150,000, while our profit margin was US$60,000, but after we handed over OEM to the mainland, the profit margin rose to US$75,000.

That is to say, the company's sales in 2010 were US$30.6 million, and after taxes were removed, the net profit was US$29.07 million!”

Chen Hao nodded when he heard this. The big sale of 3D projection equipment was obviously affected by the global sweep of "Avatar".

A 3D trend has been set off all over the world, and cinemas around the world naturally began to be modified. Although the cost is a little higher, the absence of 3D will affect the viewing effect.

Many movie fans who pursue sensory stimulation are likely to choose their theater. In order to attract fans, the theater can only be modified.

However, the ticket price of 3D will increase a lot after the modification, so the theater will still make a profit.

"The "Avatar" I mentioned at this time last year is likely to have a global 3D craze, and it has come true now." Chen Hao said, "and this trend is not temporary and will last for a long time.

Humans' pursuit of entertainment enjoyment is endless. After experiencing the sensory stimulation of 3D, it is impossible to return to 2D.

Moreover, 3D special effects blockbusters will be popular in the future. Marvel's superhero movie universe is the best example. If you want the best viewing effect, 3D is definitely inseparable.

Therefore, in the next one or two years, many theaters will definitely speed up the 3D transformation of theaters, so 3D companies will still have at least two years of bonuses to eat in the future.

If you want to seize this opportunity, you must achieve something."

"I understand, Mr. Chen," Benjamin said, "This year, the sales of theaters in both mainland China and the United States have increased significantly, and there are still many theaters in both places that do not have 3D screening systems, which are our potential customers.

At the same time, in addition to the United States and the mainland, there are many other regions such as island countries, Canada, South Korea, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain, etc., and we have many potential customers."

Chen Hao nodded happily when he heard this, "Then you must catch these customers as soon as possible."

"The company has made corresponding plans and will officially start to be implemented next year. In addition, the giant screen projection technology developed by the company has been improved many times and has been tried. If it is qualified, it will be put into mass production next year." Benjamin said.

After hearing this, Chen Hao nodded happily, "Very good, beautifully done!"

The most extreme movie viewing experience in the cinema is definitely the IMAX giant screen, which is more refreshing than 3D, and the ticket price is also more expensive.

"Let's talk about the rewards later, OK, Kevin, let's talk about Marvel Entertainment!" Chen Hao said.

Kevin Feige heard this and said, "Marvel Entertainment's revenue is basically all from copyright income, and the biggest income this year comes from "Iron Man 2".

In addition, influenced by two "Iron Man" movies, as well as "Thor", "Captain America" ​​will be released soon, including "Avengers" to be filmed soon.

The product licensing revenue of these superhero comics involved has increased significantly, so in 2010, Marvel's total annual revenue was US$48 million, more than doubled year-on-year.
