After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

Zach Schneider's face froze for a moment, and he pretended to be too aggressive.

Making a movie is a labor-intensive thing, and it is difficult to slow down without taking a break after filming.

Looking at Zach Schneider's face, Mitt on the side provocatively said:

"Why, I don't admit what I just said."

Schneider immediately stiffened his mouth.

"How is that possible? Isn't it just to continue making movies?"

"I'm an iron man!"

Kevin immediately cut off his bragging.

"Okay, I'm just asking you not to be so idle during your vacation, take a good look at this comic, and then find a screenwriter to adapt it and make a movie project proposal."

"After three months, bring it to me. The movie will be released next summer. The cost is tentatively set at 8000 million U.S. dollars. How to use it, you make a plan."

The cost of the original 300 Spartans was $6500 million, and it was $6500 million ten years later.

Now, this amount has undoubtedly expanded a lot.

But Kevin is not worried that he won't be able to use it, only that he won't be able to use it on the tip of the knife.

Chapter 262 Iron Man Relay

Zach Schneider breathed a sigh of relief.

He really couldn't bear to start work immediately, he was too tired.

But if you are just preparing for work, don't be so anxious, you can take your time.

Of course, it is definitely not comparable to a simple vacation, but there is no way to do it. Whoever made him pretend to be aggressive will naturally have to pay a price.

To the outside world, Ghost Rider, in the cold May period, created a box office that was no less than that of the summer period, which surprised countless film companies.

But in May, neither is the choice of other major film companies.

Therefore, as the only blockbuster film in this schedule, Ghost Rider's box office on the first day is worthy of its investment.

It doesn't seem so unexpected.

In the absence of competition, other studios have no interest in spending money to fight Ghost Rider, and in such a privileged situation, it's only a short week.

Ghost Rider has achieved more than 2000 million box office results.

After a complete release cycle is over, if nothing else, the US market alone will be able to recover the cost.

The place where the real money is made is the overseas market and surrounding areas.

Among them, Ghost Rider jackets and motorcycles are the most widely sold peripherals.

And the manufacturer of Harley motorcycles, in order to capitalize on the popularity, rushed to Chenxi Company and signed an authorization with them to sell every Ghost Rider Harley motorcycle.

You can get a profit share of [-] US dollars.

To put it bluntly, it is to jointly cut the leeks of fans.

Just for this appearance alone, the premium is at least a few thousand dollars, which is really unaffordable for people who are not wealthy.

Jacket sets, not to mention, hundreds of thousands of jacket sets were sold in seven days.

The net profit is tens of millions of dollars.

After all, the peripherals are more expensive than simple clothes, and it is normal for the price to be high and the profit to be high.

Similarly, with the big sales of Ghost Rider, Nicolas Cage's reputation spread further.

Compared to Nicolas Cage's previous films.

The Matrix and Ghost Rider really made his popularity spread all over the world.

From this moment on, Nicolas Cage has truly become a world-renowned superstar.

In Hollywood, the status of actors is actually ranked according to their salary.

It can also be understood in reverse, the higher the salary, the higher the status in the circle.

After The Matrix, Nicolas Cage's salary has risen to 2000 million US dollars.

Before that, he already had several very good films at the box office.

It wasn't until after the Matrix exploded that he was pushed to the throne of superstar in one fell swoop.

In the current Hollywood, there are only a handful of box office over 2000 million US dollars, Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks and other two or three Hollywood superstars.

2000 million is the default threshold for superstars.

And above superstar, there is another title, superstar, or global superstar.

By laying the groundwork for The Matrix, Ghost Rider thrives.

Nicolas Cage, successfully promoted to become a superstar, and the most direct manifestation of superstars is that they not only need salary.

While the remuneration needs to exceed 2000 million US dollars, they also have to get a part of the box office share according to the specific situation of the movie.

It is said that Tom Cruise, in the Mission: Impossible follow-up movie, has already received 15% of the global box office share.

This is an absolute superstar in Hollywood.

In his latest movie Green Lantern, he even got a salary of 3000 million US dollars and a 5% share of the global box office.

The reason why Warner Bros. is willing to pay such a high price is to use his fame to drive the sales of Green Lantern, so as to make the DC movie universe come alive as a whole.

In the case of Superman's failure, in order to make Green Lantern more likely to succeed, Warner Bros. has spent huge costs to hire superstars just to make this movie universe successful.

Nicolas Cage, for the other films he will act in next, as long as it is a commercial film, the film salary will definitely be more than 2000 million US dollars and the box office share.

Of course, as a friend, and the person who single-handedly made him a superstar.

Kevin can still get a friendly price from him.

For the sequel to Ghost Rider, Cage could be invited to continue filming for $500 million without any conditions.

Subsequent guest appearances in other movies will also be charged at a lower cost according to the length of time.

Of course, as the main force in the future reunion, Kevin must definitely focus on using it.

In the blink of an eye, it was June.

Ghost Rider has just been released, and the promotion of Iron Man has begun again.

Through Spider-Man, and the warm-up of Ghost Rider.

Iron Man, who has enjoyed the continuation of the popularity of these two films, directly won 60% of the film schedule from the theaters.

As a warm-up time for the summer, although there is no comparison with the blockbusters gathered in July, there are also many films from small film companies released.

Being able to get 60% of the film schedule is already a recognition of the power of the Marvel Universe by the theaters.

It can be predicted that if Marvel movies continue to be successful, in the future, Marvel movies will get more movies in theaters.

Occupy all schedules.

In a society of capital, it is the most real thing that can make movie theaters make money.

As long as it is profitable, no big company will work in front of them.

···

On the Internet, in an exclusive official forum of Marvel.

Huge title at this point.

[The movie Iron Man will be released on June [-]rd, all Marvel fans are welcome to watch the movie! 】

This forum was established under the instruction of Kevin.

With Marvel's early efforts, it is very important to maintain fans in advance.

At the same time, it also helps some people who don't usually pay attention to TV to know about Iron Man.

With the development of the Internet, although it has not yet reached the video era.

But with the speed of the network at this time, it can already support pictures. This progress has greatly promoted the development of the network.

At this time, there are already 3000 million Internet users in the United States, which is definitely not a small amount.

Gaining this audience is critical.

Below the forum, there are thousands of replies.

【expect! 】

【It's finally released, I can't wait to see Spider-Man, Ghost Rider, and Iron Man appear together in one movie. 】

【····】

These thousands of replies represent that this post has been viewed by at least hundreds of thousands of people.

In the Internet, there are always only a few people who like to speak.

Most people are watching silently.

And that's just online promotion.

Chapter 263 Plot Setting

Familiar routines, promotional videos, and blockbuster commercials.

Grab people's attention.

Although there are many blockbuster films released in July, countless commercials fly together.

But thanks to the continuation of the popularity brought about by the hits of Spider-Man and Ghost Rider.

Let Iron Man get the attention it doesn't deserve.

Under such crazy publicity, countless viewers were attracted by the movie and came to the movie theater.

···

The familiar Los Angeles studios.

Kevin, Robert Downey Jr., Nicolas Cage, and Jim Carrey, four influential celebrities in Hollywood, entered the movie theater in disguise.

At this time, the four of them were sitting in the last row with popcorn and Coke.

Kevin with a full beard looked at Robert Downey Jr. and said with a smile:

"I didn't expect you to be nervous, Downey?"

Nicolas Cage also joined in, grinning and saying:

"Yes, this scene is worth remembering."

Jim Carrey joined in.

"How about we have a party to commemorate this scene at night?"

Jim Carrey's character is actually very dull, and he really doesn't have many friends in the circle.

But as he got acquainted with Kevin, under Kevin's leadership, Jim Carrey also began to interact among these bad friends.

The personality is obviously more cheerful.

In this regard, Kevin is very happy for him.

The master of comedy always has a dull and unsmiling appearance behind others.

So is Zhou, so is Jim Carrey, so is Bean and Chaplin.

This may have something to do with their sensitive hearts, and they can gain insight into the tragic experiences of more low-level people.

Their comedies, at first glance, are comedies, but inside they are tragedies.

It's not those funny movies that make nasty jokes and think they're funny.
