564 Proud of spring breeze
“Why not give Hobbes a spin-off movie?？”
This topic sounds extremely ridiculous, but when it was spread on the Internet, it became well-known in the blink of an eye. In the past month, riding on the east wind of the summer season, it gradually became more stylish and became Renly. The most direct reflection of the rapid rise in popularity, Renly can now be said to be "rightly popular"”！
Although Andy was looking forward to such a result when he originally chose "Fast and Furious 5", even the boldest artist would not dare to dream up such a fairy tale - relying on a series of previous reputations With the accumulation of money, Renly completed the feat of accumulation through this commercial movie, surpassing Vin Diesel and Paul Walker in one fell swoop, becoming the biggest winner of this drag racing movie, but the reality is really happening..
When the call first started, Andy heard about it, but didn't pay much attention to it..
He believed that this was just one of Universal Pictures' promotional methods, because from an objective standpoint, it was too ridiculous, and even unbelievable. His first reaction was to doubt himself, whether he had issued relevant orders. The order promoted this topic on the Internet, but he was very sure that it was not him. But if it was Universal Pictures' handiwork, then everything would make sense.——
Since the word-of-mouth is outstanding and the praise is overwhelming, we can definitely add fuel to the fire and use the free resources of the Internet to attract more viewers into the cinema and contribute to the box office..
If it was just a publicity ploy, it couldn't be taken seriously, so Andy didn't take it to heart..
So far, Renly has gained enough in this summer's season, and he can't become fat in one sitting. The top priority is that Renly must still devote himself to the filming of "Transcendence". In order to avoid the filming of "I Fight Cancer" The harassment situation reappeared. Andy did not deliberately promote online speech, but allowed word of mouth to slowly spread and settle. Although this speed was a bit slow, it was better than solid.
At the same time, Andy began to contact major film companies one after another to prepare for Renly's next film..
This is not a precaution, but a normal process. Most top commercial movies start preparations two or even three years in advance. During the preparation process, various accidents may occur, including changing actors, directors, screenwriters, etc. It is not unusual to even change producers. Therefore, it has always been a common practice to contact early, have more resources, and be prepared..
However, during the contact process, Andy unexpectedly discovered that Universal Pictures was seriously considering creating a Luke Hobbes spin-off with Renly Hall as the team. This is true! At least the possibility has reached a point where it must be taken seriously！
How the Internet rumors started has not been verified, but what is certain is that Universal Pictures is very interested in this proposal. It sounds ridiculous, but upon closer inspection it is quite credible.——
First of all, Universal Pictures is not good at developing sequels. This is already a well-known thing in Hollywood. After finally encountering the "Fast and Furious" series coming back to life, they will naturally not give up easily. If they can use Luke Hawke It would be perfect to shoot a spin-off movie with Booth as the core. This is definitely a shot in the arm for Universal Pictures..
Secondly, "Renly Hall" has become the best reason to start a side story. It's not because Renly is such a big name, powerful, or valuable; but because Renly has the potential to independently carry a commercial blockbuster. This time The wave of netizens is undoubtedly the best proof, but at the same time, he has no experience in playing a leading role on his own, and his salary is still at a mid-to-low level, which can be said to be a model of high quality and low price..
Once again, the media's fueling the flames played an important role. "Fast and Furious 5" is still in theaters, and the major media can't wait to make plans for the sequel. In the eyes of the mainstream media, except for director Justin Lin, Blue Renly is definitely the most important person on the list of renewals. "Vanity Fair" even called Renly "the core chemistry of the series' blockbuster movies."”.
If they can replicate the miracle of the first part of the "Fast and Furious" series and earn over 100 million in North American box office with a moderate investment, Universal Pictures is absolutely willing to give it a try. This type of project is what they are best at. .So, this is definitely not nonsense, nor is it groundless talk..
From a huge success at the box office, to fame on the Internet, to the attention of mainstream film companies, he has made incredible breakthroughs in three steps at a time. This summer, Renly can definitely be said to be very proud of his career development. Entering a new stage.
Of course, these are all analyzes on paper. Only Universal Pictures executives know the specific situation..
What's more, even if all this is true, Universal Pictures is indeed considering the possibility of creating a spin-off, but it still doesn't mean anything. In the real world of Hollywood, after a project is confirmed, it can take several years. They were unable to start filming, and were eventually canceled. There are countless such situations..
However, this news gave Andy a new inspiration.
In fact, Andy has not settled on an exact plan for Renly's next film. Instead, he maintains an open attitude. Whether it is an independent art film or a commercial popcorn film, he is open to accepting all kinds of different projects. possibility.
After experiencing the continuous success of three works: "Buried Alive", "Crazy Love" and "Fast and Furious 5", Renly's career as an actor has reached a turning point. In the next work, Andy must carefully Consider and comprehensively consider all aspects of the situation, such as the subject matter and script, such as the role, such as the salary, such as other related benefits, all of which must be taken into consideration.
Especially the pay.
Before the summer release, Renly's external quotation was between one million and three million, but so far, Renly's highest salary is only 800,000 for "Fighting Cancer" - this is a pure salary figure , after the North American box office statistics of "Fast and Furious 5" are completed, Renly can get box office dividends, so the salary will definitely reach a new high by then.
So, we need to think carefully about where the salary for the next work should be..
On the one hand, "Fast and Furious 5" is only the third protagonist. The nominal protagonist is actually a supporting role, and the pay gap between the supporting role and the protagonist cannot be easily made up; on the other hand, the Emmy Award Award-winning, Sundance-winning, Golden Globe-nominated, Oscar-nominated, plus outstanding performance in the summer season, this is definitely a position between the first and second tier, and the salary should be between 8 million and 1,500 Floating between millions.
Remuneration is not only income, but also a reflection of the actor's status in the industry. The salary game between Dwayne Johnson and the "Fast and Furious 5" crew is still vivid in my mind. Now it is Andy's turn to take action for Renly's Remuneration, start a remuneration game with Universal Pictures. Even if it falls in the range of 8 million to 15 million, 8 million, 10 million, 12 million, 15 million, this is completely different Different levels are especially important for newcomers.
Originally, Andy planned to collect more information, investigate more projects, and carefully consider a charter, but Universal Pictures' plan gave Andy a new idea. Perhaps, this can become Renly's next film. The breakthrough point is that Renly is now a seller's market, while Universal Pictures is a buyer's market. The outstanding performance of "Fast and Furious 5" and the potential planning of the spin-off have given Andy enough chips to strive for a higher level. remuneration.
Even if the recent rumors are completely unreliable, Universal Pictures has no such plans at all, and Andy will not lose anything. Try it and see if it breaks through.？
Now, Andy is in a taxi heading to the Universal Studios office building. The previous meeting lasted longer than expected, and he was almost late. Andy gave up his plan to drive and instead called a taxi. a taxi so that he would have time to prepare.
At this moment, what is actually on the screen of his mobile phone is his preparation homework: recent posts in the Yahoo community. The content that was completely ignored before may now become the key to the next level. Andy must take it seriously..
The taxi stopped at a parking space on the roadside. After Andy paid the fare, he swung his chubby figure and walked quickly into the building. The cool air conditioner in the room blocked out the scorching summer heat. The sunlight shone through the bright windows, making the whole space brighter but dispelling the heat. Only then did Andy exhale a long breath, and his whole body felt comfortable..
If it is a top star, these plans can be discussed on the phone, or the two parties can arrange to go to a resort such as Malibu to discuss while resting. Even if they are working, they are constantly enjoying it. But now, Renly still He is a rising star. Before he can reach the top, Andy must continue to work hard..
After reporting the name of the reservation at the front desk, he took the elevator to the corresponding floor, and then entered the glass partitioned conference room. But after opening the door, Andy felt something was wrong, and the sultry air hit his face. , he stepped back before he could even go in..
Glass partitioned conference rooms are very popular now. While they are modern, they can also overlook the beautiful scenery of the city. The higher the floor, the closer to God’s perspective. The feeling of standing at the pinnacle of power makes everyone intoxicated; However, this kind of conference room has a fatal drawback, that is, there is no obstruction to the sunlight. Even if the sunshade curtains are closed, the temperature will still continue to rise, so the power consumption of the air conditioner is relatively large..
But at this moment, the temperature in this conference room was even worse than that of a sauna. Then Andy heard an apologetic explanation from the side, "Sorry, the air conditioner in this conference room is broken.".”
