Brokerage companies and production companies are partners but also competitors. It can be simply understood as that they need to cooperate to tap the box office potential of the market, but they must wrestle among the dividends. &1t;/

In the past 30 years, the agency has made three efforts. The first time was in the late 1980s. With Harrison Ford, the agency won more pay for the actors and was no longer a vassal of the production company. The actor was no longer a vassal of the production company. "Box office appeal" also appeared in front of people for the first time. &1t;/

The second time was in the mid-1990s. With Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kim Kelly, and Tom Cruise, the agency successfully created the "20 million club", and the actors were truly involved in the film production industry chain. It occupies a place among the top powers and completely changed the status quo in Hollywood. &1t;/

The third time was ten years ago. With Johnny Depp, the brokerage company further increased the box office dividends, and used it as a lever to leverage the fundamental interests of the production company, not just the sky-high pay, the actors We have also begun to enter the management level of the producer level. &1t;/

It is simple to describe but difficult to operate. For the brokerage company, they need one or more top actors who can break the balance of power and interest structure, and then the entire industry can unite and complete the promotion, so that they can gain a slight advantage in front of the Hollywood production class controlled by Wall Street. &1t;/

By the way, in the previous three transitions, innovative artist brokerage companies are absolutely the main force. Especially for the first time, it was completely promoted by the creative artist agency on its own. &1t;/

Now, all eyes are on Lan Li. &1t;/

Because Lan Li is the only actor who has the possibility of breaking the balance. Not only is the youngest egot winner in history; the cumulative box office in North America has exceeded US$1.2 billion, and the global box office has reached US$2.5 billion. The most incredible part is that so far, Lan Li has not added any sequel movies. Cheng——&1t;/

Although "Degree and Excitement/Love 5" is a sequel movie, Lan Li only appeared in one and did not "continue". &1t;/

In other words, all of the current box office results have no sequel bonuses, and they are completely dependent on the market appeal of Lan Li, which is so sturdy that it is dumb and speechless. &1t;/

If any actor can break the current shackles and win the "30 million plus box office dividend" pay, Lan Li is the only possibility. Robert Downey Jr. can't do it, Johnny Depp can't do it, and other heroes in Marvel movies and DC movies can't do it, only Lan Li. &1t;/

It is no exaggeration to say that after egot, Lan Li's every move is under the watchful eye of the entire industry, even the production company is no exception——&1t;/

Recently, Warner Bros., Universal Pictures, and Legendary Pictures are fighting whales, but the "Jurassic Park" and "Degree and Excitement/Affection" projects have attracted a lot of attention. Thomas Tour and Long Meyer are Make every effort to suppress the pay of Lan Li, from a certain perspective, this is also what other film companies like to see: &1t;/

On the one hand, they are eager to cooperate with Lan Li; on the other hand, they hope to suppress Lan Li's pay. This is a tricky situation. If Universal Pictures can come and become this "villain", and then other production companies will take advantage of it, lower the pay and reach a cooperation first, this will be perfect. &1t;/

Therefore, Lan Li, the little shrimp rice, really attracted a lot of attention in this stormy whale fight. Maybe, at some point, he will also become a key **** to change the entire market. After all, the name "Len Li-Hall" now has its own extraordinary. &1t;/

Emma Thomas can’t be said to be very knowledgeable about this situation, but he is also well aware of it. Therefore, when Christopher said that Renly made a request for remuneration, Emma said that it was impossible not to be flustered; but now, when he heard Renly’s remuneration terms, Emma’s first reaction was—&1t;/

Dumbfounding. &1t;/

Things are not as complicated as imagined. You can do a simple math problem based on the pay of the two works of "Gravity" and "Interstellar Crossing". &1t;/

The former is Renly’s current remuneration level, while the latter is the expected remuneration level that Renly is negotiating; the former is a 10% box office dividend, and in the latter case, the production company estimates a base salary of 20 million. Plus 3% of the box office dividend, and Lan Li proposed a basic salary of 20 million plus a 5% box office dividend. &1t;/

Then the tax situation is not considered for the time being, and the North American box office is used for calculation. &1t;/

If the final North American box office is 100 million U.S. dollars, the former is 10 million, and the latter is 23 million, or 25 million. &1t;/

If it is 200 million, the former is 20 million, and the latter is 26 million, or 30 million. &1t;/

If it is 300 million, the former is 30 million, and the latter is 29 million, or 35 million. &1t;/

If it is 400 million, the former is 40 million, and the latter is 32 million, or 40 million. &1t;/

A simple and straightforward horizontal comparison makes all the data instantly clear. &1t;/

Taking "gravity" as the current market value of Renly, if the North American box office is less than 300 million, Renly's current salary is more dominant, reducing the burden of Renly's so-called actors; while the North American box office is high. At 300 million, Lanli’s advantage will almost be eroded, and the production company will be able to win more profit margins. &1t;/

If you say this alone, it seems that Blue Gift takes advantage, because if the box office loses, he does not need to bear too much responsibility and can still take away the basic salary plus dividends; but the premise is that Johnny Depp and Robert Don Jr. Ni’s remuneration has far exceeded such a baseline. &1t;/

Johnny Depp starred in "Pirates of the Caribbean 4", and the pay was 55 million. According to the above criteria of Renly, only when the North American box office exceeded 550 million, Disney could make a deal, and the final movie The North American box office is 240 million. &1t;/

Robert Downey Jr. starred in "Iron Man 3", and the pay was 50 million. According to the standard proposed by Lan Li, the North American box office must exceed 500 million U.S. dollars before Disney's transaction will not lose money, and the final North American box office of the movie is 400 million. &1t;/

Of course, the particularity of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" and "Iron Man 3" lies in: &1t;/

Disney theme parks and peripheral products can continue to create value. After these two series of films were filmed, the profits from the surroundings are far higher than the profits of the movie box office itself. Disney is still not at a loss, so that it will continue to invite two actors. When playing the same role, Disney still gave up money and didn't hesitate. &1t;/

But returning to the actor's salary and film production, Lanly's price-performance ratio is far better than that of Johnny Depp and Robert Downey Jr. What's more, now the major agencies are actually watching and looking forward to it. Lan Li can further increase the basic salary of 25 million or 30 million, which will raise the lower limit of all actors' wages and earn more benefits for the actors. &1t;/

The principle is very simple. &1t;/

Originally, the 20 million club is the limit now. Although the salary of Johnny Depp and Robert Downey Jr. is the basic salary, they are calculated after the estimated box office dividends are converted into the salary, which cannot be generalized; If the 20 million club has become a 30 million club, it means that actors of the original 15 million grade can chase 20 million, and actors of the original 10 million grade can chase 15 million. Millions have been made, and layers are increasing. &1t;/

In the end, the beneficiaries may be all the actors in Hollywood, even the cast, stand-in actors and extras can win more benefits. &1t;/

Of course, the brokerage company’s struggle for such a ceiling is not for public welfare or for the prosperous career of actors. In the final analysis, it is for their own interests. &1t;/

Now, Lan Li is not greedy or self-proclaimed as a hero. The Lion opened a big mouth and offered a sky-high number. Instead, he was infinitely close to the psychological bottom line of the film production company and proposed a reasonable number that people could not refuse; More importantly, if Lanly sets a precedent for "20 million clubs plus box office dividends", this can also improve the treatment of actors, but it does not touch the core interests of the production company. &1t;/

It can be understood that Lanly has taken an important step forward to satisfy the brokerage company without breaking the absolute bottom line of the production company. &1t;/

This is like boiling a frog in warm water, eroding the bottom line of the production company step by step. If the Blue Gift’s request for remuneration is fulfilled this time, the production company will not jump; then, "Gravity" and "Interstellar" will be released. After that, once the box office has achieved great success ~lightnovelpub.net~ and Renly will further increase the remuneration, the production company will once again fall into a "have to agree" dilemma. &1t;/

Of course, the most important premise is that the box office of "Gravity" and "Interstellar Crossing" can be successful. &1t;/

For a horizontal comparison, when Johnny Depp starred in "Pirates of the Caribbean 5", the industry rumored to be paid 95 million; when Robert Downey Jr. starred in "Avengers 3", the industry rumored to be paid 100 million. In fact, these figures have not been officially recognized. The specific detailed figures have not been disclosed by both Disney and the actors, but it is certain that they are bound to be higher than during the "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" and "Iron Man 3" periods. &1t;/

This is the struggle between the seller's market and the buyer's market. &1t;/

But the real power of Lan Li is that he doesn't need to rely on any series or characters, but can rely on his strong appeal to gradually increase the salary one step at a time. The company... is mixed, bittersweet and bittersweet. But in the final analysis, the production company will still agree. &1t;/

cunning! &1t;/

Such a decision is too cunning. It's just right, it's in the middle of the red heart, so the production company can't refuse it hard. Don't underestimate a set of numbers, this is precisely the art of negotiation. &1t;/

The first reaction in Emma Thomas' mind was: Is this the number established by Andy Rogers, or the number established by Renly? &1t;/
