Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 2035 2037【Small cost, big profit】

Rosamund was very excited about the invitation.

As an actress, she is also eager to make a breakthrough in her career, but it is very difficult.

Because the competitive pressure in Hollywood is too great, without background and capital, it is difficult to compete with other people with background and capital.

For example, Gwyneth Paltrow, obviously her acting skills are not high and she is not pretty, but because her father is a Hollywood producer, her mother is a big name on Broadway, and her godfather is Spielberg, she is almost walking sideways in Hollywood. , won the Oscar for Best Actress when he was less than thirty years old.

Rosamund is also thirty-one years old, not to mention winning an Oscar, she hasn't even been nominated.

And "Captain America" ​​is a comic book movie, with an investment of up to 90 million US dollars, and it is one of Universal Pictures' most important projects this year.

In addition, comic book movies have become popular in recent years, and the actors who starred in them are all popular without exception, so she also hopes that this movie can reverse the situation where she is half popular and not black.

...

"Rosa, how time flies. When I saw you, I was still filming "007: Die Another Day"." Xiang Nan laughed, "It's almost ten years now."

"Yes, Mr. Charles." Rosamund nodded, "It's a pity that we didn't cooperate again after that movie. It's really a pity."

She later participated in auditions for many movies such as "Underworld", "Fast and Furious 2", "Rage Rescue", "Wolverine", but unfortunately she failed and missed many opportunities to become popular.

"It's okay, you play this "Captain America" ​​well." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "If the response is good, there will be an American drama with you as the protagonist in the future."

"Okay, thank you." Rosamund smiled.

...

This year's Oscars, although "Avatar" is a hit, but in the end the best picture and best director were both taken by Catherine Bigelow.

And this Catherine is one of Cameron's ex-wives.

Speaking of it, Cameron is also very romantic, and has been married five times in his life.

...

After the Oscar awards ceremony, Xiang Nan took the time to prepare for "Fast and Furious 5".

In this one, Boss Tang will clean up and help the US government arrest mercenary criminal groups.

It was also from this movie that Boss Tang's gang gradually became superhuman.

In fact, they started out doing illegal racing, sneaking trucks and things like that. In the first part, when encountering provocations from the South Vietnamese gang, they even retreated on their own initiative.

But now, they dare to confront the international mercenaries head-on. It has to be said that it is really a shotgun change.

But there is no way. After the accumulation of the previous few films, the audience's appetite has grown. Just playing street racing and fighting against drug dealers, gangsters, and gangsters can no longer satisfy the appetite of the audience.

Just like eating chili, when you get used to a certain degree of spiciness, you can only eat hotter chili to enjoy it.

That's why the stories in the "Fast and Furious" series are getting more and more exaggerated. From dealing with the South Vietnamese gang at the beginning, to dealing with drug lords, mercenaries, top hackers... and then even flew into space.

...

"Fast and Furious 5" is still a large collection of familiar faces, except that John Dawson and Steiner Kadick in the fourth part will reappear, and the dead Maggie Q in "Fast and Furious 3" will also appear.

After receiving the invitation, they were also very happy to return.

The "Fast and Furious" series is obviously becoming more and more popular now. They can get a good salary and a great exposure rate for starring in this film. For them, it is a good thing, so naturally they will not reject.

So in April, "Fast and Furious 5" officially started shooting.

At the same time, Cong Shan also returned to the mainland to participate in the filming of "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree".

...

Heading into April, Universal Pictures has released the inspirational sports flick "The Flaw," starring Winona Ryder, Lily Collins and Quinton Aaron.

This movie tells the story of Oher, an African-American boy who was originally a homeless child. After being adopted by Mrs. Taoxi, with the warmth and encouragement of his family, he developed his sports skills and finally became a professional football player.

Adapted from real people and real events, this movie is full of inspirational and warm elements, so it was very popular after it was released. This also made the film a box office hit.

In the end, the North American box office reached 250 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office exceeded 400 million U.S. dollars. And the total cost of the movie was only $29 million.

A movie earning twelve times its cost at the box office is definitely a box office miracle. Seeing the popularity of this movie, other film companies couldn't help turning red with jealousy.

Had they known this movie was such a hit, they should have invested in it earlier. It's really depressing!

...

In May, Universal released the R-rated comedy "The Hangover."

It tells the story of a few bad friends who brought their soon-to-be-married friends to Las Vegas to celebrate their last single weekend, but unexpectedly, after a night of carnival, the groom disappeared, and there was a tiger and a baby under one year old in the room for no reason .

Therefore, in order to find the groom, they can only follow the clues, peel off the cocoons, and search step by step. During the process, they constantly uncovered the truth about their carnival that night...

It's a big-time comedy, full of smutty scenes and off-color jokes. But the more this is the case, the more popular it is with the audience.

After all, food and sex are also sexual, and this kind of movie is easy to be popular.

Coupled with the three leading actors Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Garifie, etc., the funny skills are very good, and a lot of sparks were sparked when they cooperated.

Many of the jokes were not so funny, but under their interpretation, they made the audience laugh again and again, so the box office naturally sold well.

In the end, the movie grossed US$270 million in North America and US$450 million worldwide. And the cost of this film is only 35 million US dollars, and it is another fine work with a small and big picture.

However, Universal Pictures has successively won two low-cost and high-profit works, which not only makes the peers envious, but also makes investors full of confidence in it.

As a result, Universal Pictures' stock price soared, reaching a high of $150 billion. Such a result can be said to be quite good.

Entering June, the movie released is "The Twilight Saga 2".

This film was originally supposed to be released on Valentine's Day, but because "Avatar" was so popular, it had to be postponed to the summer file, which also made "Twilight" fans feel sorry.

But now once it is released, the long-suppressed desire of movie fans will be disappointed in an instant. Therefore, on the first day of release, it has already won more than 80 million US dollars at the box office, which is quite extraordinary.

In the end, the North American box office was 290 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office was as high as 700 million U.S. dollars. And it only cost $50 million.
