Chapter 843 Money Remuneration

This season, Los Angeles is only a dozen degrees at night.

The well-connected roads are like blood vessels, and cars are passing through the lights day and night, transporting the vitality of the city to all blocks. The rich are indulging in luxury, the middle-class years are peaceful, and guns and cannons are buzzing in the slums, which is also lively.

No matter what era, the evenings in the United States are not safe.

In front of American Juhezhan, Ji Chunhua could only pretend.

Late at night, the party of the Oriental Company's North American team ended. Ji Chunhua and his friends were fighting here for a night. Li Jianqun returned to his residence, and Gong Xue naturally followed Chen Qi to stay in the hotel.

The two met in Los Angeles and felt like they were having sex with money from a fan.

It was a strong wind swept away the fallen leaves and the rain broke the banana leaves.

Chen Qi just arrived today, and before the jet lag was reversed, he immediately handed over the public food. His head was dizzy and he didn't want to move. Gong Xue rushed for a while, wiped him again, put his shoulder on his smile:

"You didn't see Zhuangzhuang and I hugged our heads and cried bitterly when we went out. Thanks to my mother, I wouldn't be able to leave even if I was soft-hearted. This kind of thing is the first step. I'm out now. Although I want Zhuangzhuang, I feel good."

"Time is fast! You only have two months in total, and half a month has passed."

Chen Qi rubbed her smooth and tender back and asked, "How about Lao Zhang and others?"

"Minds are floating, I hold a conversation twice a week to adjust their mentality. It's better if you come. Take the time to talk to them. They visited a movie shooting two days ago and were stunned by the production."

"It's normal for human beings, but if you break through it, you will be able to have a vast sky."

Chen Qi paused and said, "I have a lot of things this time and I don't have much time to care about them. I still want you to work harder."

"Oh ~ Did I ask you to accompany me? I've been around."

Gong Xue snorted and pointed directly at the core.

"What's this? It really hurts my heart. I want to be by your side all the time!" Chen Qiyi said righteously.

"Forget it! I have a lot of things. You are busy with yours, I am busy with mine, and you don't need to worry about it."

Some women say this kind of thing to fish, and once the man responds, it will feel good. And they have been together for many years and are familiar with each other as if they are part of themselves. Gong Xue said that she doesn’t need to accompany her, that is, she doesn’t need to accompany her.

...

I slept for a night.

The next morning, each worked.

In fact, Wang Jing brought Qiu Shuzhen and Li Saifeng came early, just busy promoting "Happy Death Day", and they were really not familiar with Zhang Yi.

October 31 is Halloween, and November 1 is Halloween.

It is said that the Irish people brought this custom to the United States. After various evolutions, they have lost their religious significance and become a traditional festival mainly for celebration. Children will knock on doors and ask for candies, and people will dress up as ghosts and parade.

Later Chinese people also joined in the fun and dressed up in various strange styles.

Fake courage: pretend to be a ghost on Halloween!

Really bold: pretend to be a ghost during the Zhongyuan Festival!

This also gave birth to a Halloween schedule, which usually starts in mid-to-late October and ends in early November. The famous "Moonlight and Friday of the Thirteenth" are all on this schedule.

"Happy Death Day" is not a pure horror movie, but it fits well with the festive atmosphere of Halloween.

"Black Man" is a Chinese starring, and it is difficult to promote. Chen Qi personally did it. "Happy Death Day" is just for regular promotion. Phoebe Cates is a famous youth idol, and this film is also positioned as a "groundbreaking youth thriller comedy" and has a natural audience.

Chen Qi's job is not this, he met a senior Warner staff member first.

The foreigner came up and congratulated him, "Congratulations, Chen! The box office of "Black Hero" broke all the records of Chinese-language movies. I watched it twice, and it was amazing!"

“Jet Li is an excellent action star, and we unanimously believe he has the ability to further expand the market!”

"Thank you! I think we can talk about it carefully."

After saying politely, Chen Qi asked directly: "Are you ready for the script?"

"How long has the release of "Black Man" been released? The time is too short. I can only say that we are preparing, but we hope to have a better cooperation intention."

"Then what do you position him? I mean the storyline and actor style of this script."

“That’s it…”

The other party outlined his ideas, saying that a gang member in Hong Kong was involved in revenge and came to the United States alone to avenge his relatives and friends, but ended up having a relationship with the daughter of the villain's eldest daughter, Barbara.

Needless to ask, the villain boss must be a black man, and his daughter is naturally a black man.

In some ideologies, the United States is much more cautious than us. They are keen on the combination of Chinese + black people, either Chinese men + black men, or Chinese men + black women.

There is no such thing as Chinese men + white women, but very few.

Moreover, they think that Chinese Kung Fu and black rap music are very well matched.

“…”

Chen Qi didn't express any comments after hearing this. This was an external company asking Li Lianjie to film. Just review the basic principles and said, "You don't have a complete script, and I have no way to propose it. I just want to say one thing: it's not good to gang members, so change it to a positive identity, so don't have any ugly scenes."

"Chan! We..."

Chen Qi interrupted the other party and said, "I am fully responsible for Jet Li's agency affairs. I can't do this requirement, so there is no need to discuss it later."

"OK!OK!"

The other party is not very happy, so he has to agree because the data is on!

The box office of "Black Man" is more than 60 million US dollars, which is enough to kill 90% of the year's movies. According to the questionnaire, the audience is not resistant to such a yellow-skinned superhero.

Business value and audience recognition are two of the most important data in Hollywood.

Li Lianjie first entered Hollywood. His first drama was Mel Gibson's "The Deadly Weapons 4", playing a villain, with only 10 minutes of play. After the film was released, he was a questionnaire and the audience's favorite character: first Mel Gibson, second is Lee Lianjie.

The company immediately tailored the script for him and filmed "The Deadly Romeo".

The two sides continued to enter preliminary negotiations on pay.

“Not less than $2 million!”

"This is impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible. I don't have a big talk from the lion. You second-tier action stars are worth this. You want to take advantage of Jet Li's bonus but are unwilling to pay for it. How can you be so cheap?"

"Okay OK!"

The other party looked defeated and said, "Chen! Everyone says you are a difficult opponent. As expected, you know very well about the inside story of our industry."

In the mid-to-late 1980s, there were only two Hollywood super first-line action stars: Stallone's value, "The First Blood 2" was $12 million + 10% box office share; Schwarzenegger's value, "The Red Square SWAT" was $11 million.

A first-line action star, Bruce Willis, who played "Die Hard", and Harrison Ford and others, the pay can reach 8 million to 10 million.

The pay for second-tier action stars is basically 2 million, because their film budget itself is small.

Warner asked Li Lianjie to film, and his budget would not be too high, and 2 million just happened to be stuck.

"We will complete the script as soon as possible and discuss it in detail."

"I hope we can cooperate happily!"

Chen Qi shook hands with the other party, thinking that 2 million US dollars is 15 million Hong Kong dollars. If this is transmitted back to Hong Kong, Cheng Long will not be crazy?

Li Lianjie himself is going crazy!

Not to mention the martial arts team and the sports committee, it is probably going to be lively again.

He threw Li Lianjie out without mentioning anything else, such as director and action director, and he also wanted to see what the effect of this film made in Hollywood would be.
