February 14th, at morning.

My grand Greek wedding, which has been promoted for a long time, was officially released in 2,150 cinemas in North America, accounting for 18.9 film schedule rate of North American film market that day, ranking second.

Second only to the movie bottle of CITIC 19.3 produced by Warner Group.

Such screening rate naturally aroused the doubts of many people outside the world.

"No."

Jordan, director of Paramount Pictures' distribution department, said in surprise: "Warner Group has taken action head-on this time, and my grand Greek wedding is now plagued by negative news. It's reasonable. How could the theater chain still have such a high screening rate of Wald Pictures?"

Miramax Films Harvey Weinstein is also very puzzled.

"What's wrong!"

"That's so wrong!"

"Walder Pictures has indeed developed well in recent years and has risen strongly, but for theaters, how can Wald Pictures compare to Warner Group's weight?"

"So what's the question?"

"There was negative news in the past and was slandering it. Later, Warner Group was eyeing it. The theaters were considering profitability. How could it be impossible to give Wald Pictures the second highest number of films that day?"

While Harvey Weinstein was confused, he was also a little jealous!

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

Although the production cost of the slim beauty produced by him is less than 10 million US dollars, his good reputation has set off a wave of "youth films" and the box office is not low now.

But!

Now that Wald Pictures' new films are scheduled for a high volume, the number of other films will inevitably be reduced.

For example: Miramax's slim beauty.

Yesterday, the slim beauty also owned 900 cinemas and more than 1,400 screens, accounting for 9 of the total screening volume;

However, today, it has been reduced to 720 cinemas and 930 screens, accounting for only 6 of the total screening volume in North America that day.

The volume of screening decreases, and the profit will naturally decrease!

You said, can Harvey Weinstein not be angry?

"Damn Zuckerwald, damn Warner Group!" Harvey cursed.

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

Which of those film companies has no resentment?

But, they had no choice!

Even Time Warner Group has not suppressed Wald Pictures’ screening volume. What can they do?!

At the same time.

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

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

Warner Group executive Ro Born was a little resentful.

"I have no idea."

Schmidt from the theater company said on the phone.

"You don't know?"

Warner executive Roben frowned and said, "Schmidt, this is different from what we agreed to before. You have promised me that you, Emperor Entertainment, will not give Wald Pictures more than 300 cinemas, but now there are more than 500 cinemas. There are also amc theaters and Ximanke theaters, which is the same. It is obvious that they have made a promise, but now they are disapproving."

Upon hearing this, Schmidt from the theater was also a little annoyed.

Who is he?

He is the vice president of Emperor Entertainment, and the head of Emperor Entertainment in the Washington region of America, and is responsible for coordinating many theaters. He can cooperate with Warner to adjust the screening of certain movies appropriately, but he is not a Warner employee!

"Robern, what's your tone?"

"Are you asking me?!"

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

"Finally, for the sake of our friends for many years, I tell you that the reason why we, Emperor Entertainment, raised the screening 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 moment, Warner executive Ro Born was stunned.

It's right that Warner is strong, and it's perfectly OK to be the leader of Hollywood's sixth largest, but they can only exert influence on the theaters and have absolutely no right to decide.

Now that the board of directors of Emperor Entertainment has come forward, Warner has no choice.

Could it be that Wald Pictures will become a quarrel with Emperor Entertainment, one of the three major theaters in North America?

Moreover, now it is not just Emperor Entertainment, but also Ximanke, who are also the three major theaters. Amc., will they still have to make a comeback?

No one can bear such losses!

"hateful!"

Suddenly, Luo Boen was furious.

.........

Wald Pictures.

"call"

Wald's vice president Kevin Feige looked at the report in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, the theaters have stabilized in all aspects, otherwise our box office results would be absolutely unimaginable." Kevin Feige said with lingering fear.

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

"Oh, by the way, Old Bill, do you know how the boss deals with the theater?" Kevin Feige asked.

With all aspects of theaters, Wald Pictures is far less powerful than Warner Group.

"I really know this."

President Bill Old Bill smiled and said, "Just two days ago, the boss met with the chairman of the three major theaters of Emperor Entertainment, Amc and Ximanke, and proposed a bet deal. My grand Greek wedding in North America had a total box office of less than 150 million US dollars, so the boss will completely give up the income from my grand Greek wedding and make up for the losses of less than 150 million US dollars in the three major theaters."

Betting treaty?

A $150 million North American box office?

At this moment, even Kevin Feige was shocked!

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

Especially in the mid-1980s.

However, with the development of time, the pattern of hundreds of theater chains that once competed for the hegemony has changed into a film market led by the three major theater chains and mainly dominated by many small theater chains. The pattern has been broken, and the box office betting model has no longer been popular, and it is even rare to see it.

But.......

Zucker's $150 million box office bet has attracted the interest of the three major theater companies.

Why don’t you make money?

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

Interest is the foundation!

Others lack confidence in my grand Greek wedding. Zhuke is a time traveler. Don’t you know the potential of this film?

If Warner wants to argue, it’s all done! “In this way, now only media considerations are left.” Kevin Feige murmured.

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

The numerous negative news will undoubtedly greatly hurt the box office of my grand Greek wedding, which is a problem that everyone in Wald Pictures has to consider.

The parent company of Wald Pictures, Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, has far inferior to Time Warner's media power!

"hehe!"

Old Bill smiled again and said, "Kevin, our boss has amazing potential in terms of verbal battles. Don't you know this yet? Look, there will be a good show next."

"Well?"

Kevin Feige was stunned for a moment.

The first update is given.
