Hollywood starts with animation

Chapter 551 "Tomb Raider" Celebration Banquet

The director of the film "Spider-Man 1" Sam Remy also proposed an increase in the director's pay for the film "Spider-Man 2."

You said, didn’t you sign a trilogy contract?

Ha ha!

Faced with the explosive "Spider-Man" series of movies, even if you sign a trilogy contract, you have a clear statement about the pay, sometimes it is not good.

The increase in film remuneration is inevitable.

Director Sam Remy, from a horror film director, took over the $140 million production cost of the sci-fi blockbuster "Spider-Man", completely relying on Zhuke's appreciation.

To put it bluntly, without Zhu Ke's imperial appointment, there are two things to say whether he can be the director of "Spider-Man".

Zhuke is completely Sam Remy's benefactor, and he is kind to him.

After all, business is business.

No, when the "Spider-Man 2" project was established, Sam Remisuo asked for a high salary, and he did not have the slightest tenderness.

The director's salary is 6 million dollars!

He did not propose the sky-high director's pay, nor did he propose the box office share and copyright share.

Two words-sensible!

"Sam, why don't you mention the box office share? Don't forget, you are the director of Spider-Man 1!" The agent questioned.

Sam Remy spread his hands and smiled: "If you ask for a box office share, will Wald Pictures definitely give it?"

"Who knows if you don't try it?"

The agent was very unwilling.

He had just learned that Toby Maguire’s agent had offered the producer Wald Pictures an exorbitant price.

Sam Remy solemnly said: "Aside from Mr. Wald's knowledge, I will ask for a box office share before shooting "Spider-Man 2". Is it appropriate? How do you make other Hollywood studios think?"

broker:"......"

In the Hollywood entertainment industry, sometimes being too greedy is definitely not a good thing.

Think of the Spider-Man actor Toby Maguire in the original time and space~

The popularity of the "Spider-Man" trilogy did make Toby Maguire gain enough popularity and money, but after leaving Peter Parker's aura, he was cold, and he had no good resources at all. Find him, even if he takes the initiative, others will not take him to play.

"Then we just try it, won't it work?" The agent was still a little unwilling.

Sam Remy suddenly shook his head and said: "It's useless to try, and it makes both parties unhappy. However, I believe that when "Spider-Man 3" is filmed again, even if we don't mention it, Wald Pictures will Here is a box office share contract."

"Remember, look farther!"

The voice fell.

The broker nodded Mu Leng.

Sam Remy was really upset when he saw his agent's unbearable performance.

"It seems that I need to change to an agent as soon as possible. He can't keep up with me anymore."

His current agent is a few years ago, Sam Remy was still in the fledgling stage, but now...

at the same time.

Starring in the "Spider-Man 1" heroine star Kirsten Dunst, the little green devil James Franco and other major actors are also asking for higher pay.

However, their demand for remuneration is within the acceptance range of Wald Pictures.

Reasonable.

Kirsten Dunst said: "Spider-Man 2 requires a box office share, which is absolutely a stupid thing. Throughout the history of Wald Pictures, they have never given any actors a box office. Divided. Tsk tsk~ I think Toby Maguire, he is floating."

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Agent Colin immediately took the shot and applauded, saying: "Our Kirsten is still smart."

"He didn't want to think about Toby Maguire. He lost the aura of "Spider-Man". What else does he have? He really treats Wald Pictures as a persimmon. Sooner or later he will regret it."

Colin is also a veteran agent. He has paid attention to Wald Pictures a long time ago, and he knows how terrifying the potential of Wald Pictures.

He continued: "Wald Pictures alone holding dozens of Marvel superhero copyrights is worth sacrificing the present in exchange for a better future."

In contrast, Toby Maguire and his agent Juan Wiggins are much greedy.

Of course, no matter how the crew members ask for higher pay, Zhu Ke is not very concerned now.Zhuke believes that Kevin Fitch and others will do all this, and do everything at a relatively reasonable price.

if not?

Then Zhuke will definitely be cruel, don't mind...change the entire management of Wald Pictures.

There is never a shortage of people who have the ability, have no chance, and want to be in position.

...

June 20.

Zhu Ke carefully dressed up under the planning of a group of stylists and was invited to the celebration banquet of "Tomb Raider".

The film "Tomb Raider" was jointly created by Paramount Pictures and Wald Pictures, among which Zhuke himself served as the producer.

The movie was released for 47 days and earned 140 million U.S. dollars at the North American box office. The overseas box office has also exceeded 190 million U.S. dollars.

Up to now, the global box office has exceeded 330 million US dollars.

Compared to its $80 million production cost, Paramount and Wald Pictures have made a profit.

The film is still being released in overseas countries and regions, and continues to be squeezed, and it is foreseeable that the box office will increase further in the future.

"There is no doubt that the sequel to Tomb Raider has started!"

This is what Paramount President Shirley Lansing said in a recent interview with the media.

But... the sequel to "Tomb Raider" is launched, and Paramount has no plans to continue playing with Zhuke.

That's right, the sequel movie kicked Zhuke out of the game.

Zhuke is not angry. After all, the copyright is held in Paramount's hands. With empathy, this is a very reasonable thing, and there is no need to be angry.

"Hi, Zhuke!"

Paramount's vice president and old friend Jordan, gave Zhu Ke a big hug when he came.

Jordan curled his lips and said, "Man, you made me lose a big face on the Weta digital project in New Zealand."

Zhu Ke squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "You stingy yourself and don't want to pay high prices. Does this blame me?"

In the Weta Digital acquisition case, Paramount’s offer was the lowest in comparison with a group of investors, no wonder it would fail.

Jordan smirked: "Well, today is the celebration of "Tomb Raider", we won't mention the unhappy things."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ke said: "Then why don't you mention "Tomb Raider 2"? Why don't you say that you kicked me out."

Jordan was speechless.

After losing the chance to participate in "Tomb Raider 2", Zhu Ke is not angry, but if you don't pretend, others think you are a bully.

"Huh, why is he here too?"

Suddenly, Zhu Ke found a familiar figure among the guests at the meeting. It was Toby Maguire who asked for a high salary.

"" The third update is sent.
