February 14th, in the morning.

The long-promoted movie "My Grand Greek Wedding" was officially released in 2,150 cinemas in North America, accounting for 18.9% of the North American film market that day, ranking second.

It is second only to the movie "Message in a Bottle" produced by Warner Group, which has a 19.3% film placement rate.

Such an arrangement rate naturally aroused the doubts of many outsiders.

"That's not right."

Jordan, director of the distribution department of Paramount Pictures, said in astonishment: "Warner Group has taken a positive shot this time, and "My Grand Greek Wedding" is now riddled with negative news. The film industry has such a high rate of filming?"

Miramax, Harvey Weinstein, is also very puzzled.

"Not right!"

"This is so wrong!"

"Wold Pictures has indeed developed well in recent years, and some have risen strongly, but for the theater chain side, how can the weight of Wald Pictures be comparable to that of Warner Group?"

"So what's the problem?"

"In the past, there was negative news and slander, and then there was Warner Group eyeing it, and the theater chain was considering profit. How could it be impossible to give Wald Pictures the second-highest film volume of the day?"

Harvey Weinstein is suspicious, but also a little jealous!

Because his film company, Miramax, also had a movie released during Valentine's Day.

The film "Skinny Girl" produced by him, although the production cost is less than 10 million US dollars, has a good reputation, but it has set off a wave of "youth films", and the box office is now not low.

But!

Now that Wald Pictures has a high volume of new films, it is bound to compress the volume of other films.

For example: Miramax's "Beautiful Girl".

"Slim and Beautiful Eyebrows" was yesterday,

It also has 900 cinemas and more than 1,400 screens, accounting for 9% of the total number of films;

However, today, it has been reduced to 720 cinemas and 930 screens, accounting for only 6% of the total North American film production that day.

The output of the film decreases, and the income naturally decreases!

Can Harvey Weinstein not be angry, you say?

"Damn Zucker Wald, damn Warner Group!" Harvey yelled.

Due to the release of new films by Wald Pictures, the new films of many film companies have all been reduced by the theater chain today.

Of those movie companies, which one has no resentment?

However, there is nothing they can do!

Even Time Warner Group has not suppressed the production volume of Wald Pictures, what can they do? !

at the same time.

A senior executive of the distribution department of Warner Group took the initiative to call a senior executive of Emperor Entertainment, one of the three major theater chains in North America.

"Schmidt, why did you Emperor Entertainment increase the production volume of Wald Pictures?"

Robone, a Warner Group executive, was a little grumpy.

"I have no idea."

Schmidt of the theater line, said on the phone.

"You don't even know?"

Warner executive Robborn frowned: "Schmidt, this is different from what we said before. You promised me that you Emperor Entertainment would not give Wald Pictures more than 300 movie theaters, but now they are all There are more than 500 of his mothers. There are also AMC theaters and Ximanke theaters. The same is true. It is clear that they have turned their faces and refused to admit their accounts."

Hearing this, Schmidt from the theater side couldn't help but be a little annoyed.

Who is he?

He, Schmidt, is the vice president of Emperor Entertainment and the head of Emperor Entertainment in Washington, USA, and is responsible for coordinating numerous theater chains. He can work with Warners to make appropriate adjustments to certain movies, but he is not a Warners employee!

"Roborn, what's your tone?"

"Are you blaming me?!"

"You remember, I'm not your subordinate!"

"Finally, because we have been friends for many years, let me tell you that the reason why we, Emperor Entertainment, increased the filming rate for Wald Pictures, was the decision of the company's board of directors."

The decision of the board of directors of Emperor Entertainment?

"......"

For a time, Warner executive Robone was dumbfounded.

Warners are strong, yes, they can claim to be the top six in Hollywood, but they can only exert influence on the theater chain, and they have no decision-making power.

Now that the board of directors of Emperor Entertainment has come forward, they have nothing to do with Warner.

Could it be that it has become a Wald Films, and has a falling out with Emperor Entertainment, one of the three major theater chains in North America?

Moreover, now it is not only Emperor Entertainment, but also Ximanke and AMC, which are also the three major theater chains. Are they still going to fall out?

No one can afford such a loss!

"Damn~!"

Immediately, Robone became furious.

......

Wald Pictures.

"Hu~~"

Kevin Feige, vice president of Waldknight, looked at the report in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, the theater chain has stabilized in all aspects, otherwise our box office results would be absolutely unimaginable." Kevin Feige said with lingering fears.

After all, their current opponent is the giant Warner Group!

"Oh, by the way, old Bill, do you know how the boss got the theater party?" Kevin Feige asked.

In terms of influence in the theater chain, the power of Wald Pictures is far less than that of Warner Group.

"I really know that."

President Old Bill smiled and said: "Just two days ago, the boss met with the chairman of the three major theater chains, Emperor Entertainment, AMC, and Ximanke, respectively, and proposed a gambling treaty. "My Grand Greek Wedding" grossed the North American box office. If it is less than 150 million US dollars, then BOSS will completely give up the income of "My Big Greek Wedding", and at the same time make up for the loss of less than 150 million box office of the three major theaters."

Gambling treaty?

$150 million North American box office?

At this moment, Rao is Kevin Feige can't help but be surprised!

The box office gambling treaty was once popular in the American film market.

Especially in the mid-80s.

However, with the development of time, the pattern of hundreds of theater chains competing for hegemony has changed to a movie market led by three major theater chains and under the jurisdiction of many small theater chains. The pattern was broken, and the box-office gambling model was no longer popular, and it was even rare.

But.......

Today, Zucker's $150 million box office bet is still attracting the interest of the three major theater chains.

Why not earn money?

As for Warner's influence, hehe, as long as Warner doesn't want to fall out with the three major theater parties, then no one can stop them from making more money.

Benefit is fundamental!

Others lack confidence in "My Big Greek Wedding". Zucker is a traveler. Don't they know the potential of this film?

Warner wants to fight, and it's over!

"With that being said, there are only media considerations left now," Kevin Feige murmured.

The power of the media, looking at the whole world, who can compare to Time Warner, the parent company of the Upper Warner Group?

A lot of negative news will undoubtedly greatly hurt the box office of "My Big Greek Wedding", which is a problem that everyone in Wald Pictures has to consider.

It is an indisputable fact that Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, the parent company of Wald Pictures, has far less media power than Time Warner!

"Ha ha!"

Old Bill laughed again: "Kevin, our boss has amazing potential when it comes to fighting. Don't you know that? Look, there's a good show to watch next."

"Uh?"

Kevin Feige was stunned for a moment.

" "The first more is sent.

When I came back from a business trip, I started to make up for the owed updates.
