In September, when the storm and dust over Treasure Island settled, the movie circle on Xiangjiang's side also made a big move.
First of all, Kirin Films, Shao and Jiahe announced that they will start the project of "Police.Cha School 2" in September.
The cooperation method of the three film companies is a bit the same as last time. Yin Jun bought shares in the script and offset the price of 30 million Hong Kong dollars, and then added another 10 million Hong Kong dollars in cash. The remaining two each paid 40 million Hong Kong dollars. It is 120 million Hong Kong dollars.
This number has been second only to "Speed of Life and Death", becoming the second-highest investment movie in the history of Xiangjiang.
But in fact only the bosses of these three companies know that the real cost is not so high at all, which includes 20 million publicity expenses.
The last 90 million investment also included publicity expenses.
"The Speed of Life and Death" alone costs 50 million US dollars for publicity, and the overall cost exceeds 75 million US dollars, which is really incomparable.
Of course, "Speed of Life and Death" now has a box office of US $ 260 million in the world. It has already begun to pay back and make money. This kind of gold-absorbing ability is not comparable to that of "Police. School".
It's just that the $ 50 million in "Speed of Life and Death" is a bit of a reputation. It is impossible to spend so much money in ordinary times. It's just that it is hard to bear with the Warner Brothers. .
Now some people go back and say that if "Speed of Life and Death" had evaded "Superman 2" and earned a box office of US $ 70-80 million with its quality, that was a breeze.
Unlike now, the best result of "Life and Death Speed" is to earn about 10-20 million US dollars, which greatly wastes its excellent strength.
At the same time, of course, "Superman 2" has not been a good deal. If their production cost is not high, and the cost of publicity is not much, where can they make money? It is good to not lose money!
"Police. School 2" won't fight hard with anyone, but it has already proved its strength, it will not encounter any strong opponents to fight hard.
Both "Life and Death Speed" and "Superman 2" are both bad enough to be enough to wake up those movie companies for several years.
The team in charge of "Police. School 2" was the team that Wang Jing formed last time. Most of them were from the Shao family. Zou Wenhuai did not care about it. Anyway, the person in charge of this movie was Yin Jun. No matter how, Shaw can't make trouble.
In the persuasion that Yin Jun personally called Rowan Atkinson, Rowan Atkinson finally agreed to come back to participate in the filming of the second part, but the pay was increased a lot, reaching $ 3 million.
This is still for Yin Jun ’s part. After all, the role of Harry Instructor made Rowan Atkinson completely open the door to comedy films. Recently, he was very inspired when filming the film and played several heavy supporting roles.
He remembers the instructions that Yin Jun gave to him on the set, and he knew that his current identity is not what he used to be, and he controlled the Disney and Hollywood one of the seven joint movie. If he wants more development in the future, he ca n’t say much. Rely on Yin Jun.
Except Cairo ’s Atkinson ’s pay tripled, the rest of the actors did not increase their prices.
With the filming of Detective Beverly Hills, Eddie Murphy who returned to Xiangjiang did not increase his price.
It wasn't Yin Jun who pressed him and didn't allow him to increase the price, but Eddie Murphy was very happy that he had the opportunity to appear in the movie, and he didn't care much about the film reward, at least for now.
But once the "Beverly Hills Detective" is released, the conditional treatment of Edin Murphy by the Kirin movie will have to go up a few more steps.
Yin Jun doesn't like to be a grievance for others, so he often invites European and American stars with millions or tens of millions of pay.
But for a star who can make money for himself and bring huge benefits, Yin Jun will not be too stingy.
For example, the contract between Schwarzenegger and Stallone can be divided into box offices.
Wait until they are more famous, and the box office is more guaranteed, then it will naturally rise a bit, but how should this degree be, it has to be decided by Yin Jun, and no one can threaten Yin Jun.
Eddie Murphy is different from the two superstars above.
Once he was black, black people are now in Hollywood, and they are basically very statusless. It will take another 30 years before they gradually get more opportunities.
Secondly, Eddie Murphy was excavated by Yin Jun. Black people are generally simple-minded, and they do n’t count as much as white people. Therefore, Yin Jun praised him as a star.
Moreover, Eddie Murphy is a very stubborn little actor in the United States. After arriving in Xiangjiang, everyone likes him, and he will greet him in good faith when he sees on the street. This makes Eddie Murphy feel very comfortable and feel Xiangjiang is very suitable for his life and work, better than the United States.
With all these reasons, Eddie Murphy has a strong sense of belonging to the Unicorn movie, so there is not so much attention.
As for Li Xiuman and Matsuda Seiko, they don't even need to say that they asked themselves to adjust their time to ensure that there is no delay.
Yin Jun believes that they are because of human relations, but the brokerage company of the two can finally agree that they must still look at the huge influence of "Police. School".
It is very good for any actor to continue to appear in such a sequel to a popular movie.
However, the shooting of "Police. School 2" was not in sight.
Wang Fatzi took Yin Jun's script and was convening a large group of people to investigate the field and wandering around in Xiangjiang.
This time, Wang Jing felt more funny and more interesting than the first episode, so he simply prepared himself to play more on this basis and add a little of his own stuff.
Yin Jun is a little good. As long as you do n’t change the script, but have a good improvement and refinement of the script, then he will not care about the director or screenwriter modifying his script.
Anyway, Wang Jing is also someone who has had a successful experience. He knows that as long as he does n’t play the set of and pee, he will not interfere with himself.
But correspondingly, Wang Jing also needs to put in more effort, so at one and a half moments, the preparatory work can't be done well, where could it be rushed to start up in a hurry?
His expected filming period is between October and December, and two months is not too hasty.
After all, "Police. School" is a feature film without too many complicated special effects, mainly based on the performances of actors.
And after the cooperation of the first part, in this year, everyone has made a lot of progress, and naturally it will be better.
At the same time, in September, Yu Yunkang's second film, "Hero List", was also released after this summer period.
This year Yu Yunkang won the grand prize of the Golden Statue Award, so he is very famous, and he has been promoted in the newspaper for a long time. In addition, this "Hero List" was invested by Qilin Film. It is said that Yin Jun valued him very much and took it personally. 2 million filmed movies for him.
So when the "Hero List" was released, Shaw gave the scale of 12 movie theaters.
As a niche film about dark and violent themes, 12 movie theaters have been treated very well. Before this year, 6 movie theaters would be considered good.
The box office performance of "Big List" is far inferior to that of the previous "Coyote".
Because it is not as socially targeted as "The Mountain Dog", there is no sense of revenge, but it is all in a dark and panic environment. There is nothing worth thinking about at all.
Two weeks after its release, its box office in the first four days of the weekend could reach 2.3 million, and in the second week it plummeted to 900,000. In the third week, the Shaw's theater line directly cut half of the theaters, and it is estimated that it can still take about 500,000. ,very good already.
So down, at best, "Hero List" is less than 4 million box office, basically have to lose a loss of two or three hundred thousand.
Compared with a total investment of 2 million Hong Kong dollars, such a loss is quite a lot.
Especially the movie that Yin Jun personally invested in, I am afraid that so far, only this movie has lost money!
Encountered such a failure, Yu Yunkang was also thoughtful, and decided to go to Hollywood first and then talk about it according to Yin Jun's suggestion.
Holding the script of "The Frightened Chainsaw", Yu Yunkang called on the producer and assistant Chen Xunqi that Yin Jun had assigned to him. Before the release of the "Hero List", the two set off for the United States.
Originally Wang Jing's "Police. School 2", wanted to invite Chen Xunqi to do the soundtrack and sound effects, but now there is such an opportunity to break into Hollywood, of course, Chen Xunqi will not miss it, of course, pushed Wang Beijing, only thinking about Hollywood.
The team they both used this time was all from the United States Guolianyi Film Company, but they were not very guilty.
Because Yin Jun is the owner of Lianyi Film Company, and Lianyi Film Company is a private company, he has the power to kill the employees.
The two are director and producer, respectively, and the producer is Yin Jun personally in charge. Such a lineup, even if there are only three people, is enough to make any crew members obedient.
The only thing Yu Yunkang regrets a lot is that Yin Jun in "The Chainsaw" didn't arrange him for Xiang Jiang's actors, but let him choose the actors of the United States.
Don't need to be famous, as long as you have good acting skills.
Yu Yukang directly graduated from the film department of the University of California, Los Angeles, and is more professional than too many directors, and he knows more about the Hollywood pattern in the United States.
He knew how strong the xenophobia was here.
If Yin Jun would rather directly borrow loans to buy Disney and Lianyi Film Company, even if it is an absolute shareholding of 67%, many people will be explicitly or implicitly resisted and uncooperative.
Now, Jun Yin has completely regained his name with "Happy Hotel" and "Speed of Life and Death" ~ EbookFREE.me ~ to stabilize the two companies. The next step, he must definitely contact the local forces to appease.
The previous "Beverly Hills Detective" and now "The Chainsaw" appeared on this background.
Therefore, Yin Jun can only choose to use American actors.
In fact, Yu Yunkang had seen Yin Jun long ago. This is a pure Chinese activist. If it was n’t too stressful this time, the six major Hollywood giants would jointly fight against him, and he would definitely still use Chinese actors.
Even the current "Beverly Hills Detective" and "The Chainsaw" are a bit of a compromise between the moment, but when Yin Jun thoroughly establishes his foothold, then it is the outstanding Chinese actors in the United States. When it shines on the world stage!
As a director, as a Chinese director, Yu Yunkang feels that he must be involved, so that Chinese entertainment can thoroughly establish its reputation, and it is no longer a vassal of Hollywood.
He wants to follow Yin Jun and tell the world that Xiangjiang has enough good film talents to make better movies!
Perhaps one day, the name of Oriental Hollywood will be completely removed from Xiangjiang's head.
Was replaced by such a loud signboard of "Xiangjiang Movie"! ! ...
