The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)

Chapter 1617: Nissin Doujin

$63.5 million.

Relying on the brilliance of a work "Gravity" alone, Lan Li has achieved the goal that other actors have struggled all their lives, and from "Edge of Tomorrow" to "Gravity", he has dedicated top box office works for two consecutive years. , Which made Lan Li soar into the sky and instantly became the hottest actor in Hollywood.

Johnny Depp took over the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" and Robert Downey Jr. took over the filming of "Iron Man 3". Both actors have set the highest salary record in Hollywood one after another, which can be said to be the first in the entire film industry. Well-deserved top-notch existence, but these two actors rely on the series of movies to make their name, and the pay after leaving the series will be greatly reduced. This is also an objective fact.

This is also the reason why Marvel and DC's copyright are so highly valued-as all major film companies know, Xiangmomo is not Johnny or Robert, but comic adaptation rights (IP).

Lan Li is different.

"Gravity" is not a sequel nor does it have a sequel; Lanly has not filmed any sequel work so far-"Speed ​​and Excitement/Emotion" has only filmed one, "Edge of Tomorrow" sequel script is still being created, and at the same time So far, Lan Li has only filmed "Edge of Tomorrow" which is an adaptation of the original novel or manga.

In other words, Renly’s market value is completely accumulated on its own. Just like Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise and Will Smith in the 1990s, such superstar value is the most worthwhile. Awe-inspiring.

Relying only on its own market appeal, Renly broke the record of Johnny and Robert's remuneration, and received an unprecedented $60 million in remuneration, which is definitely a milestone in the history of the Hollywood film industry!

When Lan Li just entered the "Interstellar" crew, Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway once teased the title of "Mr. 500 Million" because Lan Li's two consecutive works broke 500 million at the North American box office. Except for James Cameron, no artist has yet reached such a height.

Now, from "Mr. 500 million" to "Hundreds of millions of net worth", this also means that the focus has fallen from market appeal to personal wealth, and Lan Li's halo bursts with incredible energy in an instant.

What's more, this is not all.

"Drunk Country Folk Songs" followed closely.

At first, Lan Li and the "Drunk Country Folk Songs" went round and missed each other for a while, but the Coen brothers still gave absolute trust and insisted on waiting for Lan Li to join, and finally contributed to this period of cooperation. Regarding the part of the salary, the Coen brothers are also exceptional. Generous, giving the greatest convenience within the budget allowed.

After careful consideration, under the advice and operation of Andy Rogers, he officially joined in the form of cash plus dividends:

A basic salary of half a million dollars plus a 5% North American box office dividend.

Obviously, even Andy himself did not expect the North American box office of "Drunk Country Folk Songs" to usher in a full explosion, becoming the most bizarre independent work of art in history, and once again let people see the "Pulp Fiction" horizontally in a trance. The year that was vacant.

In 1994, the trio of "Forrest Gump", "Shawshank's Redemption", and "Pulp Fiction" was a good story written in history, and it is still talked about by people today, and among them, "Pulp Fiction" "Undoubtedly, it is a heterogeneous among heterogeneous. It is not only an independent work, but also an innovative work that breaks the linear narrative structure and formally established Quentin Tarantino's position in the history of North American cinema.

That year, "Pulp Fiction" only invested 8 million US dollars in exchange for a box office of 107 million in North America, ranking tenth on the North American box office rankings at the end of the year. This is the first film history to have a box office of more than 100 million. His independent works have since completely changed the rules of the entire film market.

Many people are curious, why the historical status of "Pulp Fiction" is so high?

First, Quentin brought a new film narrative technique with a unique technique. This is also the third Hollywood film innovation after "Citizen Kane" and "The Male and Female Thief"; second, this is a new film narrative. This independent film broke away from the assembly line of major major film companies and brought new inspiration to the independent film industry.

Third, this is also the most important point, box office victory.

It's not just a profitable book. At the same time, "Pulp Fiction" also proved that independent films can also achieve a good box office. This is a strong positive impact on the entire film market, which directly gave birth to DreamWorks, Focus Films, and Fox. The birth of searchlight and other companies-that is to say, the six major Hollywood film companies have started to set up their own independent labels since then, and Sony Classics, established in 1992, has also grown rapidly.

All of this has created the legendary position of "Pulp Fiction" in the industry.

Now, "Drunk Country Folk Songs" also shows signs of industry reshuffle. As for whether it can reach the height of "Pulp Fiction", this will be determined by time.

But at least it is certain that the US$200 million box office in North America is enough to make "Drunk Country Folk Songs" an indispensable place in the long history of history.

Relying on "Drunk Country Folk Songs", Lan Li's remuneration income reached 100.5 million US dollars.

In terms of numbers alone, this naturally cannot be compared with the 60 million "gravity", but a very interesting number is worth paying attention to: The production cost of "Drunk Country Folk Songs" is only 11 million. Now Lanli's Personal salary almost equals this figure, and you can see how incredible it is from the side.

Combining the two works, in less than two months, Lanli's salary income was as high as 74 million U.S. dollars!

There is no endorsement sponsorship, no commercial performance, no personal brand, and no commercial investment. Relying only on salary income, in the Forbes year-end income rankings, Lan Li deservedly occupied the top spot, defeating Robert Jr. Downey has become the most profitable upstart in the United States!

Take a look at the list of the most profitable actors in the United States over the past ten years-

Robert Downey Jr. in 2012, Johnny Depp in 2011, Robert Downey Jr. in 2010, Robert Downey Jr. in 2009, Harrison Ford in 2008, Johnny in 2007 Depp, Johnny Depp in 2006, Tom Cruise in 2005, George Clooney in 2004, Johnny Depp in 2003.

New faces finally appeared this year! Moreover, this is still a Gen Y actor!

This shock to the entire film industry is unparalleled. When Forbes announced the list, when the exhibitor relationship announced the year-end box office charts in North America and the world, everyone was a sensation!

From the baby boom generation to the X generation to the Y generation, the X generation has never been able to complete the feat of succession, and now finally found a successor among the Y generation!

After the "Avengers" swept the army in 2012, the film industry has been sighing: Hollywood has no superstars, only copyright (IP).

Marlon Brando in the golden age, Harrison Ford and Tom Hanks in the business awakening era, Tom Cruise and Will Smith in the nineties, and Leonardo Decca in the turn of the century Prio... the personal charm of these top superstars has given the movie more unique colors, but now it has all died out.

Everyone is wondering who can take over the burden of box office superstars. As a result, copyright has become the darling of the market. This also makes the charm of the movie fall on the shoulders of computer special effects, assembly line work, and adaptation of the original. The actor's personal The charm is gradually annihilated in those modular movie structures, which is frustrating.

After all, the era is still submerged in the torrent of history.

But now, I am afraid they need to take back this sentence.

Nevertheless, people in the industry were excited and welcomed the return of Lan Li with countless applause. Perhaps, because he completed EGOT at a young age, people are disgusting the strength and dominance that squeezed out Lan Li; now, because Lan Li has reproduced the charm of the actor in the golden age, he has once again won the favor of the industry. .

The fact is so wonderful. The two seemingly incompatible independent factors, commerce and art, have always depended on each other to support each other, and they are inseparable.

As a result, many rumors appeared in the "Interstellar" crew. It's like this moment.

"Len Li has always been so dedicated, haven't you heard of it before? On the set of'Speed ​​and Excitement/Love 5', he played the fight with Van Diesel personally, and now he just keeps it. It’s just his usual style. I don’t think he has any need to maintain his own image project. Are there still few rumors about him in the industry?"

"That's true. Even if he wants to maintain his image, there is absolutely no need for him to work so hard. If it were me, I would sit next to rest and just need to be on the scene during the actual shooting, so that everyone wouldn't dare to say anything. "

"I just listened to the discussion between Lanly and Chris. They need to consider the impact of their weight on Wia. Lanli also hopes that he can adapt to Wia's performance in advance. I have hanged Wia in the "Edge of Tomorrow" before, but the number of times is different. Many, he still hopes to be able to adapt well. What's more, this is still performing at high altitude, which is almost three or four floors from the ground. He also needs to adjust~lightnovelpub.net~ I just think, his The net worth is over 100 million, there is no need to work so hard."

"Do you think he doesn't even know that he is worth over 100 million yuan? After all, who would be bored and have nothing to look at his bank account?"

"We poor people will do it. Hahahaha."

"I think Universal Pictures will be dumbfounded by such desperate efforts. I have not grasped so many opportunities."

"Have you not heard? In fact, it's all...all...Wait, he didn't come to the scene today? In fact, it was Thomas Tour trying to control the power, and Lan Li didn't buy it at all, which caused the matter to fall into the trap. Deadlock."

“The version I’ve heard is that Lanly doesn’t have much demand for remuneration at all. He just thinks it’s a good thing to re-collaborate with Paul Walker. The dinosaur project is also because of Steven Spielberg, but Universal But there was always a card reward, without any respect, but Lan Li didn't care at all and turned around and left."

"Now that Universal is going to ruin the intestines, right? Kevin has a bit of foresight."
