The box office director of Hollywood weekly said: "we hope to have a good box office figure in the last 10 days of this year. The box office on Christmas day last year was 76 million. Three new films" Sherlock Holmes "," mouse Treasure 2 "and" this is very complex "were released this Christmas, and Avatar was continued last week. We expect the total box office in North America to reach 10.4 billion this year."

According to the figures released by beimi box office statistics agency, the box office revenue of avatar in the first week of release was US $73 million, and the box office revenue in the second week decreased by only 3%.

Under normal circumstances, the box office of films with great box office success in the first week will generally decline by 30% to 50% in the second week, but his decline is heinous and negligible.

So far, the total box office revenue of the film in the United States has reached 212 million US dollars, and it is expected that the total box office revenue in the world may exceed 1 billion US dollars.

Following avatar is the new detective Sherlock Holmes directed by British director Guy Ritchie. Its weekend box office revenue was US $65.4 million.

MGM pictures, which released the film, said the result was exciting and did not rule out the possibility of making a sequel.

This is a project introduced by Susan Downey, the wife of Robert Downey Jr. and vice president of MGM. Downey proved that he can play well even if he leaves iron man. He said on the social networking website: "finally he has the money to buy a big house and be a neighbor with mark."

The live action animated film Alvin and Chipmunks: Star Club ranked third at the box office with us $50.2 million. The total revenue of the film has reached US $77.1 million in the past five days. Industry insiders predict that this film is likely to surpass "Alvin and chipmunk" released in 2007, with a total box office revenue of US $217 million at that time.

In addition, the two films that industry insiders predict will be favored by Oscars, pending starring George Clooney and the musical nine, which is full of famous stars, have also begun to be widely released all over beimi, both of which have entered the top ten at the box office.

It is worth noting that the total box office revenue of this year's Christmas weekend was US $278 million, setting a new record of US $253 million in 2007. Although there are still a few days before the end of 2009, the box office revenue of American films this year has exceeded US $10.4 billion, setting a new record.

Analysts believe that affected by the financial crisis, people are more willing to put entertainment activities in less expensive cinemas, objectively increasing the number of film audiences. However, it is undeniable that there are many excellent films launched during Christmas this year. Science fiction films, comedies, action films, family themed films and competitive award films with serious themes "gathered together" to give the audience a film dinner.

The big box office sales of films are just a publicity window, and the big sales around Daiwang are the main profit points.

This "Avatar" is a 20th century fox film. Mm can't get involved in copyright and DVD, but can share in the box office. The film is sold well. The huge flow of people will bring all kinds of business opportunities to the cinema. All kinds of snacks, snacks and peripheral products are sold out, which gives mm a share in the fat meat of the economic benefits driven by "Avatar".

As the strongest entertainment media group in beimi entertainment circle, mm has almost participated in the operation and investment of various entertainment projects, but mainly in film and television production and distribution and its surrounding industries. The investment is concentrated in the Internet technology industry. Mark rarely invests in industries such as music and sports.

News Corporation and Time Warner have their own music departments. News Corporation owns 20% of the shares of the Los Angeles Lakers, while Time Warner owns the Atlanta Hawks of the major league baseball. Mm doesn't have its own team or invest in sports.

Egger and Ellison wanted to buy a bigger team, but they failed because they had no business experience in this field. Mark wanted to buy WWE League, but several others opposed it.

Mm has strong financial strength, and several major investments are also profitable, which makes them have to find new profit growth points and investment projects. If money is left in hand, it will only depreciate.

Mark rested for a week, spent Christmas and new year with his family, and began to work again.

After confirming that mm and warner are in normal condition, he will start directing the Avengers alliance.

This is what he has promised marvel and mm for a long time. He will create a fist product for marvel as the core of Marvel's foothold in Hollywood.

In this case, only he dares to say that other directors will laugh if they don't rush.

Before that, he made an appointment with Jerry. He had to make sure Jerry jumped into the pit.

After half a month's careful consideration, Jerry finally decided to accept Mark's proposal, decided to change from turbid to clear, and resigned from the position of minister of homeland security. This position has great power, but he is also very angry. The joint exclusion of his superiors and subordinates makes him miserable. As long as anything happens in China, even a shooting case, he will be blamed, but there is no credit, He should do anything.

His temples are white, not to show the elegance of his European aristocracy, but to worry.

Mark immediately asked someone to arrange for him to participate in the Pennsylvania Senate election, which was recognized by everyone. Even the White House thought that letting him become a senator was far less threatening than his position in the Department of homeland security. They also knew that he would not move the pit unless he found a place to settle down. That's it, With the recognition and cooperation of all parties, this guy was successfully nominated as a state senator by the governor of Pennsylvania and passed by the parliament.

During Jerry's tenure as secretary of homeland security, mark was afraid to touch him, but he was not so frightening after he stepped down as the powerful minister.

Jerry is insidious and cunning, but his son Donald is really a good man and has strong ability. He serves as the chief executive of Facebook and manages Facebook very well. The dispute over beimi's domestic social networking websites is basically a dispute between Facebook and my space. My space is backed by News Corporation, and my strength can not be underestimated.

But my space is only a subsidiary of News Corporation. The group headquarters does not pay much attention to it, while Donald, President of Facebook, is one of the bosses of MM group. Mark ordered that the main artists of MM must register their Facebook account and use it to promote interaction with fans.

David Lee, Downey, heath and other superstars all use face books and speak for him. What superstars such as mark, David Lee and Downey announce is first through face books. All organizations and companies of MM have also registered face book accounts.

This huge star effect has made Facebook the most popular and fashionable mainstream user. The number of its users has rapidly surpassed its competitors and expanded its leading edge. My space has been far abandoned.

In 2010, many Wall Street companies have persuaded face-to-face IPO, but donald refused.

Donald claimed: "when Wall Street needs us and pleads with us, we will appear."

Donald has seen the value and potential of face-to-face books, and it is entirely possible to become another Microsoft or Google. He wants to build another media empire. Donald, who is only 25, has become a new star in the Internet technology industry.

Silicon Valley says he will be the next bill gates. Although this has boasting costs, it also shows that the industry is optimistic about him.

Mark also found that Jerry and Donald are father and son, but their communication and interaction are not close. There is no close connection except for some necessary etiquette interaction.

Jerry didn't remarry, but he had several lovers and had children. Donald was not stupid enough to contact these people. He just knew each other's existence and had no contact. Mark interacted more with Jerry.

Donald understands that David, Sophia, mark, Keira and Giselle are his relatives and objects worthy of dependence and interaction.

It was also because of this that mark made sure that Donald didn't hurt him and focused on Jerry.
