MTL - After Buying Marvel, I Became the King of Hollywood-Chapter 191

Although I don't know which one of my own is seen by Steve Kevin.

But what it means to be spotted by Steve Kevin, he is still very clear.

Fame, countless money, this is all you can think of.

You know, Steve Kevin has never failed to this day.

Even the directors under his banner, making movies one by one, are making huge profits, and there has never been a single loss.

It's nothing short of a miracle.

Kevin looked at Johnson and then said:

"If you are in a movie, you need to change your whole look. Can you accept a shaved head?"

Johnson's current image is closer to the Scorpion King in the Scorpion King. At first glance, it looks very oppressive, and he is an excellent villain.

Except for Kevin, no one knows how wide his playing field can be.

Ordinary people shave their heads, which will only look more vicious, but when he shaved his head, he was a little cute and very happy.

Hearing Kevin's words, Johnson thought he wanted to play the villain himself.

But even the villain, the villain in Steve Kevin's movies, can also help him become famous in Hollywood.

However, he was somewhat disappointed.

In Hollywood, no one has ever relied on a villain to become an A-list star.

His image has a great influence on his position in Hollywood.

Johnson was happy in his heart, but also lost:

"Yes, I can accept it."

Having said that, he hesitated and asked:

"Can I ask, what role do I play?"

"A moralistic gang leader, a good race car driver, and..."

"The lead actor in my movie."

Johnson was overjoyed.

He originally thought that he could only get a supporting role, or a big villain.

Unexpectedly, Kevin directly gave the position of the protagonist.

This···

A burst of ecstasy surged into my heart, and the respect and gratitude to Steve Kevin were beyond words.

"but."

Kevin continued.

"I can't pay too much, and the films I shoot are all series, so in the follow-up, your pay will not be too high."

"Even if you become a superstar, the maximum salary is only more than ten million dollars."

Kevin's words are very straightforward, he uses Johnson just for the cheap.

As for movies.

Speaking of bald heads, gang bosses, and racers.

The movie in Kevin's mouth is naturally Fast and Furious.

And the role he prepared for Johnson was naturally Dominic Toledo, played by Vin Diesel.

In the Fast and Furious series, Dominic Toledo is undoubtedly the absolute protagonist, so it can be said that Kevin is going to support Johnson this time.

And he really admired the actor very much.

In the entertainment industry, talent is the most important thing.

Some actors are born with a natural ability to act and are full of aura. This kind of thing is almost meaningless if it is cultivated the day after tomorrow.

At the same time, there is something more important than talent.

That is the eye.

The audience is pleasing to the eye, how to see it, how comfortable it is, this is the most important point of becoming a superstar.

And Johnson is meaningless as an actor who is very popular with the audience, and also has a talent for acting.

Johnson waved his hand and said quickly:

"More, more, even if the movie is popular, I will only get 10 million dollars at most!"

Johnson is making a statement.

He knows better than anyone how easy it is to play Steve Kevin.

Especially if this is a series of movies.

The name of the superstar cultivated in the last series of movies is Johnny Depp.

Relying on the Pirates of the Caribbean, he has become a global star.

He has also heard the gossip, it seems that Steve Kevin and Johnny Depp had an unpleasant relationship because of the salary, and was almost given the lead role by Steve Kevin and changed someone else to play Caribbean Pirates out.

Of course, he didn't know if it was true or not.

Chapter 279 Warner's Decision

But he knew that he couldn't offend Steve Kevin if he wanted to be in Hollywood.

The remuneration is second. As long as you become a superstar, you can't earn the money back from various advertising endorsements. There is no need to worry about the remuneration and miss the opportunity.

Kevin nodded and said:

"Tomorrow, you go to Chenxi Film Company to sign a contract. The movie will start shooting next year. You should practice the movements of the racing driver. You must be professional enough and practice your acting skills a lot."

"it is good."

Johnson agreed immediately.

After negotiating with Johnson, Kevin left here and went home directly.

At present, Kevin has won the film rights of the three masterpieces of Pokemon, Transformers, and Special Forces.

Among them, the Pokémon must be Kevin himself, and he is not at ease with others, but Kevin plans to shoot this movie in two years.

The current special effects technology, if you want to produce good effects, the cost is too high, and the cost can be reduced in two years.

He is going to hand over the Transformers to Mitt. Mitt and Michael Bay have similar styles. With Kevin's suggestion, I believe he can restore the essence of Transformers very well.

As for the special forces, Kevin is going to set it aside and wait for the Russell brothers to shoot later.

Of course, superhero movies can't be stopped, but the popularity of three consecutive movies has not dissipated, and it can't bomb too much at one time.

Kevin is going to cool off first, continue to improve the worldview through comics and TV series, and then continue to shoot.

Kevin himself, on the other hand, is preparing to make a Fast and Furious movie first.

This kind of original series can be said to be one less film. Of course, Kevin has to grab this big IP early.

At the same time, for the sake of the movie, he gave up the actor Vin Diesel and chose the newcomer Johnson, which can greatly reduce the conflict between the crew.

However, there are more things this year, and Harry Potter is about to be released on Christmas. Kevin has no time to start work for the time being, so he can only push it to next year.

Tom Cruise's home.

Tom Cruise looked troubled.

As a superstar, his connections are naturally impossible to underestimate.

The information that Warner Bros. can obtain, he can also obtain, which naturally includes various data of Green Lantern.

More than 40 million US dollars on the first day, this result is naturally not bad.

But he also knew very well what this bad reputation and attendance represented.

With the Mission: Impossible series, he spread his fame all over the world and became a superstar.

That doesn't mean he'll always be a superstar.

As long as several consecutive films suffer losses, he will immediately be regarded as a box-office poison by major film companies and stay away.

Hollywood is such a reality, he knows it very well.

However, he still had a way out. With the relationship between Nicole Kidman and Steve Kevin, he only asked to come to the door, and Steve Kevin would definitely help him.

Anyway, he and Nicole Kidman are playing each other, and it is also a pretty good opportunity to use Nicole Kidman in exchange for the lead role in Steve Kevin's new movie.

Of course, this is a last resort. If the box office of the movie does not drop significantly, this trick is naturally unnecessary.

This night, Warner Bros., Tom Cruise, and Kevin all had their own thoughts.

Either happy or sad, or very worried about Green Lantern.

-------------------------------------

the next day.

On the countless media in the United States, there have been many bad comments on Green Lantern.

When there are not many bad reviews, film companies generally do public relations, but once it is really bad, it leads to too many bad reviews.

Not even a movie company can do it.

It's really not public relations.

There are no less than a thousand news media, large and small, in the United States. If you really need the public relations of each family, let's not talk about human and material resources. With this amount, it is really impossible to make a few tens of millions of dollars.

Inside Warner Bros.

All the executives looked at the newspaper in front of them and remained silent one by one.

[Green Lantern, a cliché superhero movie, I really doubt that Warners understands movies, how can they always make such bad movies to insult the eyes of the public. 】

[Tom Cruise, still just pretending to be cool, nothing else. 】

[$150 million, I don't know where the production costs go, incompetent directors, facially paralyzed actors, and **** producers, that's what Green Lantern is all about. 】

･･･

Overwhelming abuse, concentrated on the film.

From the director to the actor, the producer, and the producer, there is no one who is not scolded.

The reason is very simple. As a big IP of the whole people, Green Lantern's shooting, failing to make the audience feel the surprise itself is a sin.

Just like the remake of Journey to the West in the mainland, no matter what the effect of the remake is, it will always be scolded.

In the conference room, it was a dull morning, and then the person who sent the box office data came.

Robinov couldn't wait to take the data, and then he saw the box office data.

"President, how much was the box office yesterday?"

"..."

The executives asked questions one after another.

With an ugly expression on his face, Robinov slowly stated the data for the next day.

"Thirty-two million."

The meeting room was suddenly silent.

More than 30% of the decline, which means that the theater chain will immediately force the reduction of the film, even the face of Warner Bros. is useless.

Under normal circumstances, in the face of large companies, as long as the decline is not exaggerated, the film arrangement will be stable for a week.

But once this happens, no matter how big the face is, it will affect the money made by the theater chain, and it will still not save any face.

After calming down for a while, Robinov said:

"Everyone, next, all the announcements of Green Lantern will stop, and we must recover the losses to the greatest extent possible."

"The cinema side try to negotiate. If you can go offline one day later, you can go offline one day later, and try to make up for some losses."
