Eyes continue to move down, if the box office of Tornado is equally good, then the box office of Pirates of the Caribbean will be higher.
"$8.8 million..."
Robinov, looking at the box office on the first day of the specially marked tornado, turned extremely ugly.
If it is not in the same schedule as Pirates of the Caribbean, then Tornado's first-day box office is certainly not the only one.
Even hitting $20 million at the first-day box office is appropriate, as predicted by Warner's internal evaluation of the film.
However, it was precisely because it was in the same schedule as Pirates of the Caribbean, which led to such a bleak first-day box office.
not only that.
Robinoff knew that the imminent ending was that the theaters would immediately squeeze the remaining tornadoes and give them all to the Pirates of the Caribbean.
The movie market is so cruel.
Winner takes all!
In the competition with Pirates of the Caribbean, Tornado was defeated, and that was the case.
Even if its original quality can get 100 million or even 200 million at the North American box office, it will not be of any use.
All the box office will only fall on the head of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Warner Bros., this year's profit is destined to be less than ideal.
Fortunately, the profits brought by last year's Batman Dark Knight will not make him take too much of the blame this year.
But going on like this is definitely not going to work.
This movie is going to lose tens of millions of dollars.
If it loses two more films, Time Warner will come out to help.
Robinov raised his head:
"Everyone, what should we do next?"
"The battle between the tornado and the Pirates of the Caribbean has been completely defeated. In this wave, we estimate that Warner will lose tens of millions of dollars."
"What's more terrifying is that Steve Kevin's new work The Matrix will continue to collide with our next film."
"Is there anyone, tell me what to do?"
The meeting room was silent.
Several executives looked at each other in dismay.
Steve Kevin's golden sign has been verified once again.
On top of the Oscar for best director, there is now a gold medal producer title.
After all, a movie is about quality.
The problem now is that their movies are no match for Steve Kevin.
Losses from tornadoes are doomed.
If it continues like this, even Warner Bros., which is a big business, can't withstand such losses.
Now, there are only two paths before them.
Either keep holding Batman's share, and Steve Kevin just down.
The bet is, Steve Kevin, it can't be this magical forever.
He will always look away.
However, along this road, there will be huge losses.
They are okay. As the president, Robinov may not be able to withstand the responsibility of this loss.
The second way is simple.
Take soft.
As long as you are soft on Steve Kevin, everything will be fine.
However, no one of them would take the initiative to mention this.
After all, it was Robinoff's decision to not give out the revenue share.
This is tantamount to letting him slap himself in the face.
It is not suitable for them to bring up this kind of softness, and it is better for Robinov to bring it up himself.
Looking at the eyes of the executives, Robinov certainly understood what they meant.
No one is a fool to sit in this seat.
They are all human beings.
Faced with this ending, 10,000 thoughts ran through my mind.
Robinoff made a decision.
"Have you heard of the new work of Chenxi Film Company, Shushan?"
A senior executive said:
"I heard that it seems that Chenxi Film Company invested 20 million US dollars, MGM invested 20 million US dollars, and it is still attracting foreign investment."
"There is still an investment share of $20 million."
"Because the director is not well-known, and the subject matter is also a mysterious oriental theme, no one cares about it in Hollywood."
Robinov nodded, indicating that this was the movie he was talking about.
Then continued:
"I believe in Steve Kevin's vision. I decided to take the remaining $20 million investment share in the name of Warner Bros. What do you think."
"Great, I also trust Steve Kevin's vision."
"The president's decision is too right."
"..."
Several executives have praised.
Robinov asked for steps, and they let them down.
Anyway, last year's profit is still bearable.
As long as the conflict with Steve Kevin can be resolved, a loss of tens of millions of dollars is an acceptable result.
As for the shame of the president, do they look down on it?
Such a thing does not exist.
On the contrary, their president, who can be subdued so quickly, is indeed a powerful character.
As expected of the president, he can bend and stretch, and he is indeed a person who has achieved great things.
Several executives cast admiring glances at Robinov.
A smile appeared on Robinov's face.
"In that case, as a collaboration, I will personally go to MGM to talk about the new movie with Steve Kevin and Reiter."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the office was no longer solemn.
Become happy.
・・・
"Uh···"
Stretching, Kevin got up from the bed.
He was awakened by the news of Dawson's Annunciation.
After a faint response, Helen and Emma stood up to serve him.
I have to say, I had a great time.
A few female stars, perhaps the king does not see the king, hardly come to his villa now.
Usually, we make another appointment with Kevin for golf activities.
In the villa, it seemed a lot quieter.
After getting up thoroughly, and simply warming up, Kevin started exercising in the pool again.
I have to say, swimming is really a good sport.
The phone placed by the pool rang again, Helen took it and pressed the speakerphone.
"Kevin, I'm Leiter. Robinoff invites you to come to MGM tomorrow to discuss the investment in Shushan."
"Well, I see, see you at noon tomorrow."
Hanging up the phone, Kevin's face flashed a smile, and sure enough, Robinoff softened.
Chapter 173 Britney
He also thought that Warners would last another two or three years.
Unexpectedly, it was so soft.
Looking at the two who were also playing by the pool, Kevin suddenly asked:
"Helen, Emma, do you want to go to the mainland with me after a while?"
"OK!"
The lively Emma immediately jumped up excitedly when she heard Kevin say this.
Helen also nodded.
The rich residential area is beautiful and safe, but it lacks a human touch.
I have to say that in the past two years with Kevin, their circle of friends has become much smaller.
Still, it's all worth it.
Kevin did not treat them badly at all.
Eating, drinking, and moving, they are all high-end goods that ordinary middle-class families can't afford.
It's just that Kevin doesn't take them out very often.
Now, Kevin took the initiative to bring them to play abroad, which of course made them happy.
"Then, tonight, make me happy!"
Kevin said with a smirk.
Emma had such an expression as expected, but Helen's face showed a hint of shyness.
But neither of them objected.
In fact, the needs of the two young girls are much more ruthless than Kevin's.
If it wasn't for Kevin's good maintenance, I honestly couldn't stand it.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to go to the mainland, Kevin also wanted to find the old Taoist priest and ask if there is any maintenance of Jinggong in this area.
With thousands of years of history, Kevin believes that in this regard, the inheritance of those Taoists is definitely not simple.
After a good rest at home for a day, at the same time, I played some exciting games with Helen Emma and sisters from Japan in the evening.
The next day, Kevin got up normally and went to MGM Studios.
.....
As soon as he entered the door, Leiter's female secretary was waiting at the door of the company.
Under the leadership of the female secretary, Kevin went directly to the VIP reception room.
Pushing the door open, Robinov and Leiter were chatting happily.
Seeing Kevin go in, the female secretary closed the door and left.
Robinov immediately smiled and stood up:
