Full-time actor

Chapter 442 [7] The sensation on the red carpet at the American Golden Globe Awards!
"Happy cooperation!"

"In a week at most, I will get the first version of the script out with Alex!"

"Chan, please leave your email and we can discuss it online!"

"..."

After discussing for almost half an hour, the preliminary plan for "Mission: Impossible 3" was officially reached; and Richard's investment in "Mission: Impossible 3" has obviously been discussed.

As expected in this life, four actors including Chen Yu and Tom Cruise will complete this version of "Mission: Impossible 3"!
Team heroism replaced the previous individual heroism.

Tom Cruise's role will inevitably be reduced, but it will increase the sense of substitution and freshness of other characters.

If you add Chen Yu's "Mission: Impossible" spin-off, then this time "Mission: Impossible 3" should be a big success as expected.

The premise is that the side story will be released before "Mission: Impossible 3", so that the expectations are fully raised.

""The King of Soldiers" has become "Mission: Impossible: Side Story", and the box office should be better!"

After Chen Yu finished exercising, he stood in his room at the Hilton Hotel, overlooking the night views of Hollywood and Beverly Hills.

There is a feast of feasting and entertainment.

The old beauty in front of you is indeed a paradise for the rich, and here is where the super rich gather.

"I'm just a passerby, and I will eventually return to China!"

Coming to Hollywood is just a matter of gold-plating. In the future, everyone knows that China will dominate the film market; Hollywood is not getting better every year, but the Chinese film industry is getting worse, and there will always be a few high-quality films produced every year.

This is difficult to achieve in any market in the world, including Hollywood.

A box office ranking list of various places around the world that was circulated on the Internet later showed that except for mainland China, even the Baodao and Xiangjiang areas were occupied by Hollywood films; any films in the local market could not develop.

Including the Korean film industry, which is famous for its boldness and daring to shoot, it is actually getting worse year by year.

At first, China was under market protection and had a domestic film protection month; but later, under fair competition, Hollywood films could no longer compete with the mainland.

This is an indisputable fact.

After washing up, Chen Yu fell directly into sleep.

Early the next morning, Chen Yu met Liu Xiaoli's current husband, Huo Zongnan.

He made a special trip from New York to handle some CAA contract matters for him. It seems that Liu Yifei's adoptive father is a bit young, about 40 years old, and he looks like an elite.
He currently lives in Douglaston Little Neck, a community in northeastern Queens, New York.

Liu Yifei also attended the Louis Pasteur Middle School nearby, completing her 5-year high school academic credits in 7 years.

"Uncle Huo!"

Chen Yu shook hands with Huo Zongnan. The two had contacted each other many times through email, text messages and phone calls, so they were very familiar with each other.

"Your new movie is very popular in the United States recently, and the Chinese community is very excited!"

"There are few inland films that can cause such a big sensation in the United States. The same happened before with House of Flying Daggers!"

Huo Zongnan spoke to Chen Yu politely.

The box office of "Kung Fu" has exceeded 500 million in a single day in the past two days, and the total box office in North America has exceeded 5000 million. Not surprisingly, today it will break the North American box office record of "Hero" of 5371 million US dollars, ranking first in the North American box office of Chinese-language movies. The third place.

Second only to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "House of Flying Daggers"!
The success of two consecutive costume action blockbusters has indeed given Chen Yu a lot of popularity in North America.

Especially in the Chinese community, the sense of immersion is even deeper.

Therefore, Huo Zongnan would definitely be happy to serve as Chen Yu's legal advisor. After all, he was "one of his own"!
However, Chen Yu still kept an eye on it and asked the domestic legal team to confirm these contracts together, not because he was worried about CAA, but out of the principle of mutual trust.

Soon, Chen Yu signed several advertising endorsement contracts with CAA, including a confirmed role in "Mission: Impossible 3".

300 million US dollars + 2% video dividend!
Higher than Jet Li, who had just broken into Hollywood at that time, but lower than Chow Run-fat and Cheng Long.

Cheng Long's "Rush Hour" has a bonus of 400 million + 3%, and Zhou Yunfa is about the same.

This is the benefit of making movies in Hollywood. Anyone who participates in the film has corresponding profit sharing terms, including screenwriters, behind-the-scenes staff, etc. Of course, the actors will definitely get the most.

Generally, all actors combined can get 20% dividends, as well as directors, photographers, etc.

This dividend not only refers to the movie box office, but also income from DVDs, peripherals, sponsorships, etc.

Of course, the six major Hollywood giants are not philanthropic. Generally, this kind of dividend is a share of profits.

Unlike Chinese movies, which basically rely on box office revenue, Hollywood movies, after so many years of development, have already had a very complete industrial and commercial operation system.

Therefore, box office profits actually only account for 20% to 25% of a movie’s overall revenue.

Although box office is an important basis for measuring the quality of a movie, it is not the main income of Hollywood movies.

For example, domestic movies in China account for 80-90% of the box office, which means that a movie can basically only make money from the box office; but the American capital society will make profits and collect wool. In addition to theater revenue, there are currently Profit of 6 major sectors.

Peripherals, audio and video products, video rental and on-demand, PPV for airlines and high-end venues, music roles and other film-related copyrights, business placement!
These six chunks account for the remaining 80% of revenue.

So regardless of a movie taking in 10 billion US dollars at the box office, in fact its overall revenue may reach 30 billion, or even more!

Chen Yu had heard about film distribution, profit sharing, etc. in the United States before. After hearing about it this time, he had a completely new understanding.

No wonder Zhou Zhaolong said that after filming "The Matrix" for more than ten years, he still earns hundreds of thousands of dollars in dividends every year; in fact, the subsequent income from this movie is really high.

Then Cheng Long and Li Lianjie are even higher.

Li Lianjie's current salary + dividends are almost 2000 million US dollars; Cheng Long's highest is over 4000 million.

So when two people came to the mainland to shoot, they had to either lower their salary or make their own investment. Otherwise, few investors would be able to afford the money. Cheng Long chose to lower his salary and participate in the investment.

No one can afford Jet Li, so there are really few people in China looking for him to make movies. For example, "Fearless" was the one he wanted to make.

But in fact, based on the above income calculation, Li Lianjie's 2000 million is indeed very profitable.

Because in the disc market, he is more popular than Cheng Long.

There is no such high other income in China to support their high salary. Li Lianjie's mistake is that this guy has really equalized the United States and China. "The Investment Certificate" alone accounted for 50% of the investment.

Cheng Long did much better than him at this point.

"300+2%, a second male lead can get so much!"

"Isn't it easy for this leading actor to earn tens of millions of dollars in salary?"

No wonder Tom Cruise can get 1 million US dollars in dividends in future generations, this is a perfect money printing machine!
"From this point of view, it really makes no sense for so many people in China to want to log in to Hollywood!"

The pay is really too high.

A TV series costs hundreds of millions of dollars. With this money, who in the country doesn’t know that you are rich?
If you don't work hard to curry favor and get some investment, won't your status be improved? After Chen Yu signed the contract, Huo Zongnan left directly; and he followed Richard towards the hotel where he was staying.

In the evening, the Golden Globe Awards dinner will be held here, and Richard will obviously be attending.

"About two-thirds of the movie stars participating in the Golden Globe Awards this time are our CAA clients!"

"When the time comes, let's get to know each other!"

In the car, Richard politely told Chen Yu that despite the fact that CAA only takes a 10% commission, the hundreds of celebrities who collaborate with each other add up to a staggering amount of wealth; so Richard said to Chen Yu and other artists There is a reason for being so polite.

Each and every one of them is the god of wealth for him to make money. Just for the "Mission: Impossible 3" just now, CAA will probably get tens of millions of dollars in the end just from commissions.

Because of these dividends, CAA also takes 10%.

The six major investment giants also directly called CAA, and then distributed it to the major customers he cooperated with.

It can be described as a huge profit.

They work so hard to win roles for their clients.

Therein lies the connection.

……

Soon, the car arrived at the basement of the Hilton; and in the square above, countless reporters from many countries around the world were already squatting there, waiting for the red carpet ceremony to begin.

Including this time, China, Sina, NetEase, etc. all sent reporters.

The Golden Globe Awards is a grand event that is broadcast live around the world. Its standards are the same as the Oscars, but it is not as famous as the Oscars. However, because it is a vote of the Journalists Association, in terms of media, the Golden Globe Awards may be even more popular. Be more professional.

"Richard, let me excuse you first!"

"I have to go meet the crew!"

Chen Yu had to walk the red carpet with the crew of "House of Flying Daggers", so he had to be with Lao Mouzi, Zhang Ziyi and others, and he also had to go to the hotel to change clothes.

"Ok!"

Richard waved his hand and asked the driver to open the door for Chen Yu. He put down the window and said softly: "Chan, I will come to the banquet hall in a while and I will come find you!"

"it is good!"

Chen Yu smiled and walked towards his room.

The room of Zhang Ziyi and others was also here. They went downstairs and also had to walk on the red carpet.

Fifteen minutes later, Chen Yu, Zhang Ziyi and others sat in a car provided by the organizer and drove towards the square of the Hilton Hotel.

Countless fans were screaming there, and the scene was quite lively. It was Chen Yu's first time to participate in this kind of award ceremony. It was still very different from domestic ones. There were no security guards, only staff standing there to maintain order.

A complete red carpet, extending all the way to the banquet hall of the Hilton Hotel, there is no host, and no signatures are required.

"When I first came here, I didn't get used to it either!"

It is obviously not the first time for Zhang Ziyi and Zhang Yimou to participate.

As of now, Lao Mouzi's films have actually been nominated for the Golden Globe Award 4 times, making him the most nominated director in China.

Even Li Yu only did it three times.

In later generations, Lao Mouzi will be nominated once for "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins"!
"Be prepared. After we get off the bus, reporters will gather around to take photos and then communicate with the celebrities we met on the red carpet!"

“Some have a lot of fans and will be asked for autographs!”

Zhang Ziyi was talking to Chen Yu, and then the staff opened the car door. She was wearing a low-cut evening dress and walked out with a smile. It could be seen that she was quite popular in the United States. Countless people were watching That cheered.

The same is true for Lao Mouzi. Although he is a director, many foreigners know him, and he can be regarded as a Chinese director.

But what none of them expected was this.

"Chan!"

"Chan!"

"Oh oh oh~~"

As soon as Chen Yu got off the car, many fans standing there started screaming.

Shouts of "chan, chan" suddenly rang out all around, one wave after another.

This momentum shocked Chen Yu, who had just got out of the car.

Damn it, are you so popular in the United States? !
Just now, this group of people were just cheering, but now the decibel level has obviously increased a lot.

Even Zhang Ziyi turned her head in astonishment and looked at Chen Yu. Chen Yu really didn't expect that the current momentum was even more intense than before.

Chen Yu had obviously seen many people rushing towards him.

Many Hollywood movie stars standing on the red carpet and on the edge, after hearing this sudden movement, turned sharply and looked at Chen Yu, who had just stepped onto the red carpet.

"Oh my god, are you so popular?"

Zhang Ziyi shook her head and said to Chen Yu. Chen Yu spread his hands and saw an old black man rushing towards him.

The guy's eyes were shining, and he was afraid that Chen Yu wouldn't understand, so he said slowly in English: "Sign, Chan, can you sign your name for me?"

This guy unzipped his clothes, revealing a T-shirt underneath, and automatically brought a pen with him.

"can!"

Chen Yu spoke in English, took the signature pen, and wrote in a swish. After a while, he was completely surrounded by people.

"effort!"

"The boss of Kung Fu..."

"Yes, yes!"

"..."

Listening to the discussions of many people around him, Chen Yu signed his name one by one and was crowded around. Fortunately, these people did not do anything extraordinary. Some of them were quite crazy and were still talking excitedly to Chen Yu. .

Your Chinese Kung Fu is so great, I fell madly in love with your performance... I guess these signatures will be useless with this hand!
Chen Yu had never thought of this old beauty being so enthusiastic before walking on the red carpet.
