How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 506 Warner: Why is Summit Pictures happier than me?
  "Failure shouldn't cost you too much. After all, the background of Tom Cruise and the [Mission: Impossible] series is here, plus my guest appearance..."

Before Zhang Nan finished speaking, he suggested: "But when it's time to save something, we still have to save something. When you go to negotiate terms with Tom Cruise in a few days, try to count my guest remuneration as ours." You can also spend less money on investment fees.”

Old Luke: "That's a solution."

After all, the entire "Mission: Impossible 4" investment is US$1.5 million. Paramount has the series rights, so it must have a [-]% share.

Then there is only [-] million US dollars in production fees.

Zhang Nan's fixed remuneration for appearance fees, which started at [-] million US dollars, was reduced by [-]% in an instant.

The remaining US$[-] million is really not too much pressure for Longbow Film and Television Fund.

"If there is a chance, ask for another film contract with an important supporting role." Seeing that Old Luke was about to leave, Zhang Nan suggested again.

After all, the [Mission: Impossible] series has been filmed until later generations, and by 2024, the eighth part will be released.

Tom Cruise has relied on the "Mission: Impossible" series to firmly establish himself as a top star in the somewhat lonely Hollywood.

Then there is the opportunity to add someone to this series. I dare not say that I am too high, but I started as a second-tier Hollywood artist.

Old Luke: "..."

  11 month 19 day.

The North American premiere of [Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part [-])] was officially held at the Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard.

After nearly ten years of development, the number of fans of the entire [Harry Potter] series in Europe and the United States has grown into a huge group.

Moreover, this group is even larger than the original time and space.

Because Zhang Nan’s [Harry Potter-Voldemort] series has achieved a global box office of over one billion US dollars, which is not just a show-off.

Therefore, the entire premiere of [Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part [-])] created a huge uproar in the media.

……

on the red carpet.

Zhang Nan's pace was still fast, which made the media quite nervous and used to it.

However, many actors who had roles in the main series of [Harry Potter] but did not have film contracts in the spin-off series of [Harry Potter and Voldemort] walked a little unsteadily on the red carpet. .

After all, many artists also know that the main reason why they are able to attend such red carpets now is not their own strength, but their luck in being on the platform of the main story of [Harry Potter].

Occasions like this are one of the few opportunities in their lives.

The most hesitant among them are the three little ones that have grown up.

Without it.

The confusion about their future made the three of them feel a little confused.

After all, over the years, a few people have appeared to be in the entertainment industry and are top leaders in the international entertainment industry, but in fact they have only been in the "Harry Potter" crew.

They were about to leave the crew, and everyone was a little confused.

Of course.

The more important reason is the treatment issue.

The three of them are not stupid. When the main series of [Harry Potter] is about to end, they all started auditioning for other crews.

But the result~
  Except for those unknown small crew members, the three of them are willing to be given the leading role.

For other projects with a little bit of reputation and quality, they are only willing to give roles to three supporting actors, and the remuneration given is incomparable to the [Harry Potter] series.

Not to mention anything else, just this one [Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part [-])].

The grown-up Harry received a fixed salary of [-] million US dollars, while the grown-up Hermione and Ron received a fixed salary of [-] million US dollars.

At the same time, the three people also get a small share of the box office.

It can be said that after the completion of "Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part [-])", the three of them together earned at least nearly [-] million US dollars in salary.

…    In the screening room.

Zhang Nan, who had finished walking the red carpet early, wanted to sit down safely in his place.

But things backfired.

[Harry Potter] follow-up series director David Yates, and Warner Pictures president David Morris.

The two Davids surrounded Zhang Nan and chatted with Zhang Nan from time to time about the preparations for the [Harry Potter-Voldemort 2] project.

Over and over again, I still want to follow the previous cooperation model of hundreds of millions in fixed remuneration.

Naturally, Zhang Nan wasn't happy about doing this, so when the two of them tried to talk to each other, Zhang Nan refused to give a direct answer.

After a while, more and more people entered the screening hall, and the two of them could no longer surround Zhang Nan and had no choice but to give up.

But looking at Zhang Nan's retreating back.

David Morris, president of Warner Pictures, couldn’t help but ask David Yates, the director of the [Harry Potter] series next to him, “If you were asked to prepare a new spin-off of the [Harry Potter] series, what would you do? Are you sure?"

Zhang Nan's current salary is too expensive, and most of the profits from a movie are basically eaten by one person.

Before, David Morris could still accept it.

But in today's era when Hollywood is somewhat on the decline, David Morris is somewhat unacceptable.

David Yates's eyes jumped when he heard this question from David Morris.

I heard before that a new spin-off film of "The Lord of the Rings" - "The Hobbit", has been developed within Warner.

He thought it was groundless.

But now listening to David Morris's tone and mood, it seems that he made a mistake in judgment.

"With an investment of less than [-] million U.S. dollars in production fees, there should be no problem in paying back. But if the global box office exceeds [-] billion U.S. dollars, you have to try your luck. There is a high probability that it will not work." Can David Yates accept the follow-up movies of [Harry Potter]? The filming of this series relied on honest and capable hands, so I gave the answer frankly.

After hearing his answer, David Morris said nothing more, but the impulse in his heart shrank a bit.

After all, Warner's current cash flow is really not enough.

Moreover, there is already a new spin-off of "The Hobbit" in progress, so there is no rush to plan a new spin-off of "Harry Potter".

……

After some fun.

The auditorium fell silent and the big screen lit up.

Zhang Nan silently watched the performance of his villain in the movie.

how to say?

It is much better looking than the original stewed egg head shape, and the edited character material will not only provide content for ghost videos.

  $6168.4.

$3822.6.

$2510.6.

In its first three days, [Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part 1.25)] grossed US$[-] million at the box office in North America.

It can be said that it was a success.

But for the box office success of "Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part [-])", the happiest person is not Warner Pictures, but Summit Pictures, which has nothing to do with the "Harry Potter" series.

Here are the first week box office results of [Harry Potter 7: Death Note (Part [-])].

Summit Entertainment over there will immediately announce the approval of the [Twilight Saga 4 (Part [-])] project.
