Chapter 425 What the hell is always expecting my brother to make a movie?

After the match with Arsenal, Manchester United immediately returned to Manchester to rest, and the team will fight Juventus in Turin 4 days later.

Even if all the main players can take a day off tomorrow, Ferguson insisted that everyone return to Manchester first.

This made Beckham only have a brief chat with his parents before heading back home in a hurry.

Now he can only barely grasp the company's operating conditions, and the specific affairs depend on his family.

When he first established the company, he didn't have high expectations for this real estate agency. He just needed to set up a small workplace and let his family rent out the house for him.

I raised them by myself and let them live a decent life. Unexpectedly, with the support of my teammates and the admiration of some individual tourists, the scale of my company has become bigger and bigger. It is said that the number of employees has exceeded 30, and it can bring him more than one million pounds in income a year.

Well above his lowest expectations.

It was almost late at night when I got home, so Beckham simply cleaned up and hurried to catch up on sleep.

It was almost noon when he woke up the next day. Beckham picked up the phone to notify a restaurant he had contacted the day before, and within half an hour a sumptuous lunch was on the table.

Beckham went to the mailbox to pick up the newspaper, only to find that it had been filled with various advertising coloring pages.

As a football star with an after-tax income of more than ten million pounds, Beckham is naturally concerned by the whole society.

Since the beginning of the year, he has always received promotions of various luxury goods such as famous watches, luxury cars, yachts, and famous paintings. In order to meet him, many people almost exploded Lloyd's phone, which made the other party complain again and again.

Although professional players are very hard, Beckham feels that his life is not complicated.

After completing the daily training sessions with quality and quantity, and then practice for half an hour according to the plan, you can enjoy the good time after work.

Of course, there are strict recipes for three meals a day, an occasional foul, and nearly an hour of strength training every night, and the fitness equipment on the second floor cannot be allowed to dry clothes.

Not long after the lunch ended, Beckham received a call from Lloyd, saying that the release date of "Become Fame" in the United States was set for mid-July, and it would be a vacation at that time, and he needed to go to two or three shows. He was asked to lie down on the beach as much as possible during the vacation, and not to run close to the South Pole.

Hearing about this world, Beckham knew that the old Murdoch planned to make a wave of money from young people during the summer vacation.

Compared with the TV station business and media development, the Fox film company acquired by the old Murdoch has not had many major productions in recent years, and the only bright spot is "Titanic".

What's interesting is that some media predicted that this world-famous film would become "Future Water World No. 2" during its preparation.

The total cost of that movie was 2.3 million yuan, and it could build a big stadium for a Premier League team, but it produced a water movie called profound and dirty.

The box office of this movie in Beimi was only 8800 million yuan, and it almost went to grandma's house. All the cast and crew who participated in this movie were labeled as "box office poison". In recent years, no movie has dared to touch them.

Many companies in Hollywood laughed when they learned that Fox was also planning to make a big-investment water movie.

The initial budget of "Titanic" was 1.1 million yuan, and then gradually increased to 2 million yuan. No matter how you look at it, it is "the rhythm of Future Water World 2".So much so that the original male and female protagonists both quit the crew before filming, and in the end they could only find the fledgling Xiao Li and "Ross" who recommended himself.

I heard that when I saw the early editing of the movie for the first time, there were continuous gaps in the editing and splicing, so that the producer temporarily borrowed a copy of "Air Force One" from other companies to let the old Murdoch kill the extra hours.

In the end, the film maintained an astonishing 13-week box office No. 15. If it wasn't for his own "Twilight Saga" that caused disasters for others for two weeks, it would be the box office champion for [-] weeks.

Old Murdoch probably got a good grasp of Hollywood movies through this movie. He has been working on small productions for the past two years, but they all rushed.

Although it is not a big deal for the old Murdoch to invest in one or two films with a production cost of less than [-] million yuan, but he will not be able to face it after all.

So he added 800 million yuan in promotional expenses to "Fame" in order to gain popularity at the box office.

But this movie is not favored either, because the subject matter of the movie is not mainstream.

In the United States, football, baseball, and basketball are the sports that everyone likes. Football is considered a sissy sport by many people.

Although the Americans don't like football, they like Beckham, so the old Murdoch will let him play a cameo role.

Lloyd also said that Fox is preparing to put the comics on the screen one after another, and this year is already preparing an adaptation of the comics "X-Men", and asked whether Beckham is interested in playing a role called Wolverine.

Beckham flipped through the comics sent by mail. That Wolverine was a soldier who was tempered into stainless steel in a laboratory. He had a pair of steel claws and a powerful healing ability. He was simply hanging.

Beckham has been reading this comic all afternoon and it feels okay.

Lloyd brought another phone call at night, telling him not to rush to say no, if he wanted to play Wolverine, he might have to work on his muscles.

If he is willing to play, the film crew is willing to adjust the shooting time for him, without auditioning at all.

This is far from the big picture. There is no need to audition to find an actor for a movie. Do you dare to be more casual?

The FA Cup semi-final was only a day and a half hot in the English media, and the next day it immediately turned to the Champions League semi-final.

With the establishment of the Premier League and the promotion of commercialization, English people are more and more concerned about the status of the Premier League in the European football league.

For England, this season seems to be the spring of English football.

Manchester United's momentum is still strong, not only defeated Brazil Vasco da Gama in the Toyota Cup, but also reached the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Arsenal has become the biggest highlight in this season's Champions League. They first eliminated Dynamo Kiev, which reached the semi-finals last season, in the group stage, and then defeated Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, fully demonstrating the strong strength of the club.

Manchester United and Arsenal entered the semi-finals at the same time, making the whole world pay attention to the overall strength of the Premier League. This league, which has been isolated from mainstream European competitions for many years, is showing its vigorous vitality to the world.

The Premier League has gradually lost the titles of "Star Nursing Home" and "Manchester United Premier League", and more and more clubs have attracted everyone's attention.

Although Manchester United and Arsenal may meet in the Champions League final, except for the English media, other European media are not very optimistic about these two teams.

Manchester United struggled to draw the rejuvenated "Old Lady" at home. They not only lost the opportunity at home, but also allowed their opponents to score an away goal. The prospect of promotion is hard to say.

Arsenal did not pose too many threats to Bayern at home, and was pressed by their opponents for 15 minutes at the end of the game.

Facing the German giants with a country as a talent pool, everyone feels that Arsenal is still a bit short.

In short, it is a victory for two Premier League clubs to enter one.

But Ferguson is still very confident: "We won them last year, and there is no big problem if we win again this year. Even if we lose the final, we still have a psychological advantage."
