1088 The value of the role

Lynch’s personal experience!

Two weeks of life and death at sea!

Calmly dissuaded the robbers and protected all the boat passengers!

The most important thing is that these people are all rich, real rich, with assets exceeding tens of millions!

Isn't this legendary enough?

Of course legend, this is Lynch's legendary adventure, people are very interested in everything that happened on the ship, and even more interested in why some people privately revealed that Lynch was a villain after getting off the ship.

But soon they all changed their stories, refused to admit their past mistakes, and remained silent.

Something must have happened here. Everyone is very curious and want to know what happened!

If these have aroused the curiosity of 70% of ordinary people in society, then the beautiful female writer who adapted this true story twice and suffered long-term abuse from her biological father has added another 10% to it. Twenty-five heat.

She said that there were some secrets hidden in the book, which were related to her experiences. Originally, she thought she would live a life where she could never see the future.

But everything happened too fast. On the eve of the book's release, she found the opportunity and the courage to stand up and report her father.

Such dramatic elements are concentrated in one book. People's love and curiosity about it are enough to make it the hottest selling book this year!

The profit-seeking nature of capital was immediately revealed. Some publishing houses invited the girl to write books for them, and even feminist organizations invited her to join and promoted her as one of the saving lambs in the feminist movement!

Yes, without the encouragement of the feminist movement, perhaps she would still be enduring everything silently. It was precisely because of the unfolding of the feminist movement that she plucked up the courage.

It didn't matter whether that was the case or not, what mattered was that she admitted it.

There are even some new pen brands looking for her, hoping that she can promote the new brands. Her strong and brave image is in line with the positioning of that pen...

In short, she became popular, and capital saw the glittering profits in her. She was pushed in front of everyone, without leaving any privacy, and was completely exposed.

Including a production company announcing that it had purchased the story of her personal experience, and planned to use this story as a blueprint to write an art film about family ethics. The name was already thought of, called "Dad and Me."

It is said that some famous actors will be invited to perform, and there will be scenes of Chi Guo in the movie, so as to faithfully restore everything that the heroine in the story, that is, the heroine's family, experienced!

Yes, this is capital. As long as it can bring them profits, they will praise a person to the sky.

As the actual owner of the copyright of "The Adventures of Lynch 2", Lynch authorized Fox Pictures to film the second part of "The Adventures of Lynch".

The script has been adapted, and now comes the issue of casting.

Fox Pictures will go public this year, so in order to have a good start, they decided to invest more money to produce a beautiful movie.

It is this one, with a big production, a gathering of stars, and the "draft" proposed by Lynch, that almost made the directors of Fox Pictures jump with excitement.

It is said that some female celebrities who were contracted by the company did not come to work in those days. It may be that they were affected by the cold wave and were in poor health.

Penny wanted this role, and such a big production would be an unprecedented boost for her acting career.

There is a very strange way of doing things in the film industry. How much money an actor can get depends on how much money he/she/it took last time and whether the reward for his/her/it's last movie is appropriate.

If a main actor in a movie received a salary of 200,000 yuan for the last movie, and the return rate was as high as three to five times, then the film company would dare to offer a salary of 300,000 to 400,000 yuan this time.

The fanatical pursuit of box office and investment is also the main reason for the booming development of the film industry. After all, people now have too few ways to entertain themselves.

Operas and the like are too far away from ordinary people. Not being able to hear them is a problem, and not being able to understand them is even more of a problem.

As for other more expensive entertainment activities...those are not within the scope of ordinary people's consideration!

They can only limit their entertainment to what they can afford.

For example, a family of four spends one dollar and ninety-nine cents times four for a movie ticket, and then gets two free buckets of popcorn and four free glasses of lemonade, enjoying nearly two hours of simple and ordinary happiness. This is very good.

There are more than 60 million people in the Federation, 95% of whom belong to the middle and lower classes of society, and their entertainment methods include watching movies.

Assuming that one percent of them, that is, 600,000 of them, go to the movies once a week, then they will provide a box office of 1.2 million for the movie every week, which is 4.8 million per month. .

But in fact, there are not a few people who regard watching movies as their main form of entertainment. Every weekend, almost all movie theaters are full from the afternoon until the early morning.

And many people don’t just watch one movie, they watch two, three or even more, which also means more actual box office revenue every month!

The box office is 50 to 60 million, or 70 to 80 million or even hundreds of millions.

This profit is visible, it is there, and professional organizations will conduct statistics every month, and the scale is also constantly expanding.

This kind of foreseeable income stimulates the heart of every investor. They firmly believe that they can create a miracle with three to five million yuan.

They don't need to take all the profits for themselves, they only need a very small piece of it, three percent?

Or five percent?

Several times, more than ten times, dozens of times of return, this is what they are pursuing.

As for risks and losses, they must and must exist in the process of pursuing considerable returns, and they can accept the existence of these risks!

And this is why the film industry is developing rapidly. Everyone wants to get a share of the box office every month.

It’s not just the producers, the investors, the film’s directors, cinematographers, actors… they are all sharing the money.

Penny's salary has reached the current upper limit for young actresses, 200,000, and she doesn't have many opportunities to go higher.

She had discussed this matter with her agent before. First, she had to participate in some big-budget filming and prove that she had the ability to shoulder the role of a big-budget heroine.

Then he needs to increase his salary, at least to 300,000 yuan.

In the end, she achieved eye-catching results at the box office, and then she could truly become a super first-line female star.

Due to the invasion of capital, some things in the federal film industry have changed a lot.

In the past, whether a woman had so-called "dominance in the film industry" and "dominance on the screen" depended on how many awards she had won.

But things are different now. Before, Penny was still planning to spend money to compete for prizes, but now with the rapid erosion of capital, the criteria for selecting actors by capitalists and producers is no longer "how he/she/it performs" ”, but “How many viewers can he/she/it bring to us?”

This has also led to many young stars quickly receiving higher salaries, which has caused sharp opposition in the film industry.

Some old-school actors think acting skills are more important, but capital doesn’t think so!

She had to get the role.

Penny glanced at Nellie, who still couldn't let go.

Nellie's life has become a lot better recently. First of all, the advertisements every moment have made her famous. With exposure and people liking her, it means that capital starts chasing her.

Various endorsements and promotions kept appearing in front of her. The businessmen were holding contracts in one hand and banknotes in the other, begging her to sign their names on the horizontal line.

This feeling...honestly is great!

She had never thought that she could have everything like this. She felt that even if she said she wanted the moon, those people would help her get it down - or give her something similar.

Before coming here this time, Penny had actually found her and talked to her once.

What Penny meant was that the two of them were trying to find a way to win the lead actress and first supporting actress in this movie. Of course, Penny was the lead actress, and she was the first supporting actress.

She heard some news from Fox Pictures. It was said that in order to make the movie more interesting, they decided to change the male gang leader into a charming female gang leader.

This is a great opportunity, so to be called the first supporting actress is actually equal to the first female villain, and to a certain extent, she is also one of the "protagonist circles".

The two are competitors off-screen, and they also become competitors on the big screen. This in itself is very consistent with their personalities——

Since the release of the Every Moment commercial, many people have felt that they must have a competitive relationship in real life.

Agents on both sides accepted this statement and revealed to the media that although they are good friends, they also have a very strong competitive relationship with each other.

This is actually a very ordinary character design, but it made their fans inexplicably climax.

Some people also wrote to them, praying and blessing them to defeat their respective opponents...

In short, the maintenance of this kind of character is very meaningful and valuable. When someone needs Penny, they will consider whether the budget can afford to invite Nellie, although the latter's salary is actually very low, only 5 to 5 yuan. One hundred thousand.

The opposite is also true, when there is a need for Nellie's role, those people will consider whether there is an opportunity for Penny to play a guest role, or... play a supporting role with not so many scenes.

The main reason is that her salary is too high, and ordinary productions cannot afford it.

This seemingly competitive but actually mutually beneficial relationship allowed the two of them to gradually taste some sweetness, and they were willing to maintain it.

If they can play the leading role and the female villain in this movie, it will undoubtedly push their careers to a new height.
