Another World Under My Pen

It is impossible for any movie to feed three superstars at the same time.

Especially like Laobai, Steve? Lucas and Michael? Top superstars like Pete are even more unthinkable for the big giants, unless, like "Tomorrow's War", the three make sacrifices to be able to cooperate once. The two Hollywood superstars lowered their remuneration and share ratios, and Sun Peng only needed 10 million US dollars.

But this kind of thing is enough once.

If it's just that the salary figures are high, even if the three people add up to 150 million US dollars, I believe some film companies are willing to give it, and even more are possible. But what is regrettable is that what superstars want is not just a fixed salary, but also movie box office and subsequent dividends!

So after "Tomorrow's War", Sun Peng felt that there was no chance for a second cooperation.

It is precisely this point that, after hearing Sun Peng say that he might continue to cooperate, Steve? Lucas would be very interested in asking questions one after another. It's just that Sun Peng obviously regretted his gaffe, and he didn't tell Lucas what that wonderful idea was until the end of the dinner...

On the way back to the hotel, even Liu Chang couldn't help asking: "Xiao Peng, what do you mean by cooperation? And it can only be with the director?"

"It's very simple, just a movie where special effects are king."

There is nothing to hide from Liu Chang, and Sun Peng replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Liu Chang frowned and asked, "Special effects are king? I still don't understand. Doesn't "Tomorrow's Chronicles" also need a lot of special effects shots? Even too much to make the production cost of the movie insufficient. used."

"But in addition to special effects, "Tomorrow's War" also needs two protagonists!"

Shaking his head, Sun Peng explained patiently: "Special effects and war scenes are the focus of attracting audiences, but the two main actors are also gimmicks that attract them to the cinema, and they are also the soul of the movie! So for "Tomorrow's War" In fact, the most important thing is my screenwriter...All they need is an idea, plus the name laobai."

Today's meeting with the two big names made Sun Peng very emotional.

Steve? The Lucas version of "Tomorrow", compared with the original "Edge of Tomorrow", although not completely unrecognizable, after all, the core story and setting have not changed much. But after the great director's re-creation, there is a very big difference from the original.

It’s hard for Sun Peng to tell which story details and settings are better or worse, but at least Lucas’s version is larger, which sounds like he looks forward to it.

But no matter how hot the scene's special effects are, the male protagonist is still the core, and the female protagonist is still essential.

Their interaction has been enhanced by Lucas!

So this also means that in the promotion of "Tomorrow's War", the weight of the director, screenwriter and starring role should be evenly divided. Perhaps in China, Lao Bai is better, but in Europe, America and other countries, Michael? Pete is the boss, even Lucas can only be second, or even third.

Changing to an ordinary second-tier or even a first-tier star, the appeal of the movie will inevitably drop a lot!

After listening to Sun Peng’s explanation, although he still didn’t quite understand it, after a while, Liu Chang still guessed: "You mean... it is not important to shoot an actor. What is important is a movie with other elements? "

"Haha, that's right."

After smiling, Sun Peng affirmed Liu Chang's guess.

It is difficult for a super production to afford three superstars, but if there are only two, it is actually like "Tomorrow's War", as long as Michael? Pete can be replaced by Sun Peng.

As for the subject matter...

Can "Avatar" work?

Although the giant screen and 3D are very mature, "Avatar" cannot be as sensational as the original version on earth, and it is difficult to reproduce the original glory at the box office. However, as a special effects blockbuster, Sun Peng felt that this movie was The world in this era is still outstanding.

However, Sun Peng has not yet decided whether to continue cooperation.

He also needs to consider those movies, such as "Avatar" or "Jurassic Park", whether it is suitable for Chinese people to shoot. Only when it is finally determined that it is not suitable, Sun Peng will come out to cooperate with Hollywood, and does not necessarily have to look for Steve? Lucas, there are many other directors with great abilities but relatively cheap...

...

In the first weekend of "Terminator 2" in North America, the box office results were better than Sun Peng expected.

Sixty-seven million dollars in three days is extremely satisfying.

Obviously, Americans love "Terminator 2", whether on earth or in this world, they love "Terminator 2" to death, love the combination of steel machinery and muscle man, love to death two or three people A heroic plot that can save the world.

Also in love with "Terminator 2", there are local audiences in China.

After the word-of-mouth explosion like "Inception", the only factors that can affect the box office of "Terminator 2" are the filming and competitors that were released at the same time. Unlike "Inception" which was released on the first weekend, "Terminator 2" looks a little bit "good bully" in advance, so in addition to the lower coin "Inception", the same There are two strong competitors over the weekend!

One is the action movie "Black Sea Blade" by the big brother Liang Ren, and the other is a Hollywood movie of the same type. The sci-fi blockbuster "Awakening" is not lacking every summer.

When the two films were released on Friday, the box office of "Terminator 2" was immediately affected.

"Black Sea Blade" is another attempt by Liang Ren, and what he tried is the popular Chinese action blockbuster in the past two years. The background of the story is also placed abroad, and the investment is huge, the scene is very attractive; as for "Awakening" is adapted from a world-famous science fiction novel, with a strong foundation, and the Hollywood adaptation is also very successful...

Compared with them, "Terminator 2" is certainly better, but it is definitely not up to the level of crushing.

Especially the previous work of "Terminator 2" has a mediocre performance. The male and female protagonists have been unremarkable in recent years, and they have not been able to catch on. This is a disadvantage to the box office. No matter how many fans Lao Bai has in China, no matter how topical the previous one-billion-dollar goal is, his appeal to movie fans will eventually be affected.

And this bad influence was amplified after the two rivals were released.

But even so, the box office of 1.4 billion five days before the release is enough to satisfy everyone. And the explosion of "Terminator 2" also told them that this is just the beginning...
