Chapter 72: Daily Life (2/5)
The setting of "Tomorrowland" is very emotional: in addition to the earth, there is also a future world that coexists with the earth, and the two worlds can be interconnected after building a passage gate.
Of course, it's just a setting, and the story is a mess...
The actor Frank Walker liked to tinker with all kinds of inventions when he was a child, and was able to come to work in the future world, and a few years later he invented a machine that could predict the time of the destruction of the earth, and found a solution to no avail, and was driven away by David Nix, the speaker of the future world.
Decades later, Athena, a robot doll, travels to Earth to find Walker and spares no effort to save the planet.
The little girl Casey Newton appeared as a variable, her persistence changed the predetermined fate, and she found the crux of the destruction of the earth in a flash of inspiration, and successfully avoided the destruction of the earth.
The reason for the destruction of the earth is actually because the future world is constantly psychologically suggesting that the earth will be destroyed, and then the earth will erupt in a nuclear war, volcano earthquakes...
The $190 million production invited the American version of Wu Xiubo starring George Clooney...
Do you fall in love and send people to jail?
No, I'm just an ordinary white left...
So what American version of Wu Xiubo are you blowing?
In fact, among Lao Mei's group of actors, the most stable box office appeal is Rachel - Jennifer Aniston.
Don't act in commercial blockbusters, don't act in superhero movies.
One or two light comedies are released every year, and the quality of the movie is not good, and it can always maintain a good box office appeal, no matter how wrinkles her face is, how old she is, people are still happy to see her on the screen, and the American people have true love for her.
Why mention Tomorrowland?
Because Lu Xiaoran's script library is still lying "Edge of Tomorrow"...
The story of Edge of Tomorrow is to keep reading the file and brushing the same copy...
The "Groundhog Day" version of the Starship Troopers.
Lu Xiaoran likes this script because it is hard enough, and there are soft parts at the same time!
But this movie has to spend at least 400 million or 500 million to be decent.
According to the big golden retriever: Starring Brother Tom, the reputation thief is good, and the box office loses all kinds of ...
Shoot "The Wandering Earth" first...
……
Lu Xiaoran sighed: "The biggest impact of this film's failure is not the film itself, but a further blow to Hollywood's enthusiasm to invest in original big-budget films." ”
Chen Zhixi agreed: ""Jupiter Ascending", "Tomorrowland", "Lost Battlefield", "Super Chapai", four original movies in a row failed, I guess Hollywood should not dare to continue filming!"
“... I heard that Brad Bird once said that he gave up directing Star Wars because he wanted to make an original story, but I didn't expect to be on the street!"
Brad Bird, director of Tomorrowland.
One of the Pixar Five Tigers...
John Lasseter, director of "Toy Story 1 and 2", Brad Bird, director of "The Incredibles", Peter Doggett, director of "Flying House", Andrew Stanton and Lee Unkridge, directors of "Finding Nemo", and called the Pixar Five!
A group of people propped up the Pixar company!
It's a pity that animated film directors can't play live-action movies, Andrew Stanton has "Alien Battlefield", Brad Bird has "Tomorrowland"...
The former caused a loss of $200 million, the latter caused a loss of $120 million...
If it weren't for Pixar's reincarnation, it would have collapsed...
The original movie is too risky, in addition to a few fixed directors, most of the big projects of Orange every year are used for sequels, "Big Man" launched the third part, which is still the Sun Dasheng series, and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" has also launched the third part...
Dish up the same old stuff?
Do you think Lu Xiaoran wants to fry?
The audience group that has been cultivated with great difficulty, and the mature movie series is created, is it okay to leave it alone?
"I'll go home for a half-day and go to the company tomorrow. ”
"Got it!"
……
Wake up, nine o'clock in the evening...
Lu Xiaoran really feels that she is a little old, and she is about to fall into jet lag.
Lack of energy...
In the past, when I was in school, I stayed up all night at the Internet café and could stay in the classroom all morning the next day!
No wonder so many people say that 'the most precious thing in life is actually youth'...
Half lying on the bed, feeling that the years are no longer there, about half an hour, Lu Qianer got out of bed, took a shower, and clicked on the mobile phone.
I wanted to harass them one by one, and then Huang Bo sent a message: "Isn't it boring?"
“... It's so boring!"
"Come and get together!"
"Where?"
After receiving the address, Lu Xiaoran happily drove to...
It's a relatively private restaurant, and when you open the box, there are a lot of people sitting in it...
"Brother Hong Lei, Teacher Huang Lei... Wang Xun?"
"Our bridegroom is here!"
"Haha..."
Lu Xiaoran sat down, and Huang Bo poured him half a beer...
"How does it feel to get married?"
“... That's it, it's not good or bad... Come on, drink!"
After drinking it all, Lu Xiaoran took a bite of the dish, and then asked, "What's the situation?"
"Media and Media saw that our "Run" was very popular and wanted to do a reality show, which seems to be called "Extreme Challenge"..."
“... How many of you are invited?"
"Hmm..."
Lu Xiaoran was speechless: "What a big deal!"
Except for Wang Xun, which of these people is not paid tens of millions of dollars?
Invite these people to form a reality show, and add one piece to the salary, without 200 million!
Of course, Lu Xiaoran knows how terrifying the remuneration of variety show guests is: general variety shows can be divided into S-level, A-level, second-tier and general programs according to the magnitude.
For some head S-level variety shows, the star's single episode salary can reach 5 million yuan, while usually a season of programs is about 12 episodes, that is, its income is balanced at the level of 50 million yuan.
The salary of the second season of "Let's Run", the cheapest royal blue has increased to 13 million...
The highest is the Deng Dynasty: 26 million...
Count the friendship price!
"What do you think?"
“... Can you tell me the price?"
Bo Ge looked embarrassed, but still replied: "... It will definitely not be much lower than Xu Zheng..."
Xu Zheng?
Xu Zheng's single-phase salary for participating in "Food in Embarrassment" is 6 million yuan, and the total salary of a season of the show reaches 75 million yuan...
But that show is based on him...
"Tsk, that's really a big deal!"
“... Do you think so?"
Lu Xiaoran: "I haven't done a variety show, how do I know if it's good?"
"It's nonsense, the ideas for "The Voice of China" and "Let's Run" are all given by you!"
“... Teacher, you can't talk about it, who can prove that these two variety shows are related to me?"
Huang Lei: "Du Yan told me!"
Du Yan is the creative director of Orange Pan Entertainment, and she has two ace variety shows "The Voice of China" and "Let's Run" at hand...
"You give some advice, otherwise the money will not be earned!"
Nonsense, who can be down-to-earth?
Participated in a variety show with an after-tax income of 70 million?
