Chapter 331: It's Crazy

Karen Carpenter also saw the finished film for the first time, and she didn't expect her performance in the movie to be so good!

Before that, her biggest expectation for herself was to be qualified, and her performance level could reach a qualified level, at least after the release of the movie, she would not be criticized by film critics as a vase who only knew how to pose in the movie, and now it seems that at least the word "vase" can be thrown off.

The most important thing is that through this finished film, Karen Carpenter feels that although this movie may not be able to help Mr. Fernandez make much money, it does not seem to be a big problem if it returns to the capital.

If the cost can be recovered during the public release stage, plus the subsequent movie soundtrack and the videotape released after the release...... Overall, you can definitely still make some money.

That's enough.

Karen Carpenter knows how much money Chen Geng has invested in this "Bodyguard", and her brother's "Ghost Love" has also begun to prepare for the crew, so she has been under a lot of pressure during this time, worried that her poor performance in this movie will affect the box office, worried that Mr. Fernandez, who has harmed her, will lose money, worried that her transformation will not be successful, and worried about ......

There are too many things to worry about, but at this moment, after watching this finished film, Karen Carpenter's previous worries have completely disappeared: now it seems that his transformation has taken a good step.

glanced at Rosemary and motioned for her to chat with Kevin Reynolds first, Chen Geng whispered to Karen Carpenter: "Karen, after agreeing with Twentieth Century Fox on the release time and the number of screens at the time of release, your song "I Will Always Love You" will hit the charts 20 days to a month before the release, and then we will mobilize the media to promote this song "I Will Always Love You" and this movie to build momentum for our movie...... I don't know about the song charts, but you're sure you're fine, right?"

"OK, leave it to me. Karen Carpenter agreed without saying a word: "Just look at the arrangement, just say hello in advance if you need me to do something." ”

How should a song hit the charts, what should be paid attention to, and it is necessary to say hello to those music critics in advance, and even the connections...... Compared with the completely unfamiliar film and television industry, Karen Carpenter is simply familiar in the pop music industry.

"OK, then this is not decided...... Karen, if you have time in the last few days, I have an event I would like to ask you to do me a favor. ”

Karen Carpenter has been really busy these days, but in the face of Chen Geng's matter, she didn't hesitate for half a second: "Which day?"

She didn't even ask what the event was, which was too rare, after all, even if the carpenter brothers and sisters were no longer the top band group in the United States, they were one of the most well-known band groups in the United States, and their daily schedules were still full, which meant that if Chen Geng's time conflicted with his own time, Karen Carpenter would rather adjust his arrangement than settle on Chen Geng's side.

"A week later, at my house, I have a cocktail party here, well, at that time, the whole family of Minister Ding Haijun of the Chinese Embassy in the United States will also come over, and I want to invite you to be the opening guest singer, so ......"

"No problem, really no problem," looking at Chen Geng, Karen Carpenter said seriously: "Fernandez, you don't have to be so polite to me, really, my brother and I are very grateful to you for helping us do all this, no matter what you need, just say hello directly......"

"Mr. Fernandez, Miss Cullen, what are you talking about? ”

Kevin Reynolds asked with a smile, and Rosemary was standing beside himβ€”after Chen Geng and Karen Carpenter spoke loudly, Karen Carpenter and Rosemary knew that what Chen Geng and Karen Carpenter were going to talk about had been finished.

"Oh, I asked Miss Cullen if she could do me a favor and be the opening guest at one of the drinks I was hosting, and Miss Cullen said yes very respectfully. ”

Kevin Reynolds, the opening guest of the week-long reception, suddenly lit up in his eyes.

For Kevin Reynolds, who has long been commonplace to attend all kinds of cocktail parties and dinners, he knows very well that only those high-profile cocktail parties that invite heavyweight guests will invite very famous singers or bands to sing at the opening to highlight the grade of this cocktail party, such as the New Year's dinner at the White House to invite the hottest singers and bands of the year or recent years to sing.

Although the carpenter brothers and sisters are not the top bands in the United States now, they are still one of the most well-known bands.

Without Chen Geng opening his mouth, Rosemary said to Kevin Reynolds: "Mr. Kevin, this will be a business reception held by my boss, and there will be not only some Michigan legislators, Mr. Goodrich, the mayor of Detroit, the president of the credit department of Wells Fargo, but also the whole family of the minister of the Chinese Embassy in the United States, and the rich people who are worth more than millions in the United States will receive this invitation...... Mr. Kevin, do you have time then?"

President of Wells Fargo Credit?

State legislators in Michigan?

Mayor of the City of Detroit?

The people who came to this party were rich people worth at least millions of dollars?

Kevin Reynolds was really scared, such a level of drinking party really needs a singer of Miss Karen Carpenter to sing, if he can get an invitation, it will definitely be of great benefit to his career...... As for the family of the minister of the Chinese Embassy in the United States, he didn't care much...... Even if he knew that the price of getting this invitation was to make more concessions when the hairstyle "Bodyguard" was made, he nodded without hesitation: "It's my honor." ”

........................

On the way back, Rosemary reported to Chen Geng what she had just talked to Kevin Reynolds: "Boss, Kevin Reynolds said that he could sign a $22 million guaranteed distribution agreement with us, and in terms of the number of screens released, Twentieth Century Fox can only coordinate about 1,200 screens at most, and he can't ...... more."

"1,200 yuan?

Before Rosemary finished speaking, Chen Geng became angry: "Also, the $22 million guaranteed issuance agreement......?" Is this guy funny?"

This is "Bodyguard", a god-level movie that got a box office of $410 million in 1992 and ranked second in the global box office list that year!

And Whitney Houston also won the "Best Original Song" nomination at the 65th Academy Awards in 1993 and eight nominations at the 2nd MTV Movie Awards with this movie, and finally won the two awards of Best Film Song and Best European Film among the eight nominations, which can be described as infinite in 1992 and 1993!

Even if it is 1980, excluding the factor of inflation, but considering that there is no movie like "Bodyguard" that integrates multiple elements in Hollywood, if the global box office of this movie is less than 250 million, Chen Geng ...... Chen Geng hasn't figured out what to do, it's impossible to jump off the building anyway!

Rosemary didn't speak, quietly waiting for her boss's arrangement.

After a little hesitation, Chen Geng said: "Tell Kevin Reynolds that we don't want any bullshit guaranteed distribution agreement, we signed a gambling agreement with him, and bet that the total global box office of this movie will exceed ...... Well, $250 million!"

"$250 million at the global box office?!" Rosemary's eyes widened at once, and she was a little frightened.

"That's right, it's 250 million, doesn't he Kevin Reynolds think that the global box office of this movie is only 22 million dollars at most? Then I will tell him that the global box office of this movie is ten times that of his prediction!"
