How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 284 Chenglong: Please forgive me

If the paparazzi and reporters were crazy about Zhang Nan's presence.

Then Nat Shyamalan, the Asian director of [Tian Zhao], has a respectful attitude towards Zhang Nan.

This made Zhang Nan quite uncomfortable, and finally got rid of the other party's company and walked to the entrance of the screening hall.

As a result, Zhang Nan had just walked to the door and hadn't waited to go in yet.

The auditorium, which was originally noisy, suddenly became silent because of Zhang Nan's appearance, as if the head teacher suddenly appeared at the door of the self-study class.

"Anan."

Chenglong's sonorous voice broke the silence and embarrassment in the auditorium.

"Brother Chenglong."

Zhang Nan also said hello, and then walked towards Chenglong.

After getting closer, Zhang Nan found that the current Chenglong was in good condition and full of energy.

After thinking about it, Zhang Nan also understood Chenglong's current state.

The success of "Rush Hour 2" in June has made the entire "Rush Hour" series grow into a stable series, supporting Chenglong's acting career.

With the confidence of Chenglong, it is naturally impossible for him to be in a bad state and spirit.

"How are you doing recently?" Zhang Nan said politely.

Chenglong waved his hands in a low-key manner when he heard the words, but he was quite proud of his words, "Disney saw that [Rush Hour 2], which I collaborated with New Line, was so successful at the box office, and [Modu Noon 1] was also very successful. I didn’t lose money, I just made a little less money, so I got another [Magic City Noon 2] and asked me to star in it; Columbia has a model and wants to cooperate with me in a new project, but how can I, and Yinhuang Films also wants to Trying to hit the international market, so I came out with a project that was distributed by Columbia, invested by Yinhuang Films, and starred in myself."

After listening to the narration of his elder brother Chenglong, Zhang Nan sighed in his heart towards Disney, Columbia and Yinhuang.

Without it.

[Magic City Noon 2], with an investment of 5000 million US dollars, has a total box office of 6057 million US dollars.

Since the box office did not exceed [-] million yuan, the entire movie not only had no effect on raising Disney's film and television stock price, but also had the effect of lowering it.

Therefore, if the surrounding income is added together, the entire movie will lose tens of thousands of dollars.

As for another project issued by Columbia and invested by Yinhuang, it should be [Flying Dragon Rebirth].

With a production fee of 3500 million US dollars, the total global box office can reach more than 3000 million US dollars, which is also a loss of tens of thousands of dollars.

But fortunately, with the background of "Rush Hour 1.2", these two films only made the investors lose money, and they had an impact on Chenglong, but not much.

but……

These two movies sounded the charge of Chenglong defeating Hollywood, because after these two, it was Chenglong leaving Hollywood's Waterloo work-【Eighty Days Around the World】.

But these are too far away, so Zhang Nan said politely: "When these two films need guest appearances, just say a word, no matter how busy I am, I will spare time to help you with this."

"Don't mind, it's useless."

Hearing Zhang Nan's words, Chenglong shook his head quickly, and refused in a hurry: "Be good, Long Didong, 2500 million US dollars in eight hours, I really want you to come in a cameo, this movie can't be made."

"Why can't I take pictures?"

Zhang Nan pretended to be angry, "The guest appearance fee of [Rush Hour 2] was discussed in the Spring Festival Gala before, but my guest appearance fee is not low, 800, [-] million US dollars, it's settled .”

"That's different."

Chenglong shook his head and explained: "[Rush Hour 2] is the copyright of New Line Films. I can say that I am a part-time worker in the crew, earning a fixed salary and a commission from the global box office. No matter how much the production costs Money has nothing to do with me, but my brother and I are one of the investors in these two films, so if the production fee goes up, the income will decrease."

Hearing Chenglong's words, Zhang Nan could only say that he was in the right mood.

"Well, since that's the case, I won't give you any time for guest appearances, but I happen to have something to do here, and I want to ask you to help me out." Zhang Nan changed the subject.

After hearing the words, Chenglong realized why Zhang Nan was so enthusiastic before, "What's the matter?"

"Didn't I accept a film contract from Disney before? There was an action scene, and I didn't think it was very good. I would like to invite you to give it to the staff." Zhang Nan explained the reason for dealing with Johnny Depp before.

Chenglong was a little nervous when he was begged by Zhang Nan at first, but when he heard about it, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but then suddenly thought of something, and said, "This is no problem, but... which film appointment?"

"Who else can it be, just the one with a fixed salary of 1.2 million yuan. I haven't taken any other dramas during this period of time." Zhang Nan puffed his chest and said.

Chenglong: "..."

Then Chenglong was silent for a while, turned around and left without saying anything.

Without it.

It hits people too much.

He just put it aside to show that he connected the two films, and he has already started investing in Hollywood-level film and television projects.

Zhang Nan's backhand is a fixed remuneration of 1.2 million US dollars, which is tens of millions more than the total investment of his two films combined.

Looking at Chenglong who left silently, Zhang Nan didn't react for a while, and shouted: "Why did you leave, give me an accurate word!"

"Today is the premiere of [Tian Zhao], and it is also the first Hollywood blockbuster starring Zhou Jie. It's not good to overwhelm the guests. After the premiere is over, I'll go to the crew with you." Cheng Long waved his hand.

Zhang Nan was quite speechless when he heard the words, and said in a low voice: "The reason is quite decent."

And Zhang Nan just finished muttering in a low voice, and Johnny Depp came in after walking the red carpet.

"Zhang, when shall we go to Jack Cheng to talk about motion guidance?"

"It's already been negotiated, and we will go to the film crew after the premiere." Zhang Nan replied.

Hearing that Zhang Nan managed Chenglong so quickly, Johnny Depp had a deeper understanding of Zhang Nan's power in Hollywood.
-
The premiere of [Tian Zhao] was very successful.

Although the leading role was under the influence of Zhang Nan, the leading actor was replaced by Zhou Jie.

However, this change has little impact on the box office of [Tian Zhao], allowing it to basically continue the box office performance of the original time and space.

Even because of the North American summer vacation schedule in July, Zhang Nan's "Rebirth of the Doom 1" was swept away, and the box office of "Tian Zhao" in North America increased a little.

Because [Signs of the Sky], which focuses on horror content, has little overlap with the audience of [Doomsday Rebirth 1].

And Zhou Jie also relied on the world's [-] million US dollars [Tian Zhao], coupled with his accumulated background in [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon], even if there is no continued support from Zhang Nan in the future, he will completely gain a foothold in Hollywood up.

Of course, with Zhang Nan's support, Zhou Jiefang would do better in Hollywood.

Maybe with a few more successful films, he will be able to squeeze into Hollywood's 2000 million salary club.
