"Hollywood's New $20 Million Club Member – Matthew Horner!"
At an ice cream parlor in Westwood, Daenerys put down the Los Angeles Times and said, "Matthew can get $20 million now!"
Brian Liszt stopped the ice cream he was putting into his mouth and said, "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta?"
Daenerys shook her head, "It's not 'The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta', it's a film called 'I Am Legend'. ”
After saying that, she handed over the newspaper, and Brian Liszt read it carefully.
According to reliable information obtained by this reporter from within Warner Bros., the crew of "I Am Legend", which Warner Bros. is about to invest in the production, has signed a formal actor contract with Matthew Horner, which is the second cooperation between Warner Bros. and Matthew Horner in a short period of time after "Spartan 300 Warriors", for which Warner Bros. paid up to $20 million. ”
"Two million dollars!" Daenerys opened the ice cream in front of her, took a big bite, and muttered, "That's enough ice cream for me!"
The thought of the figure of $20 million made her feel dizzy.
Brian Liszt was still reading the newspaper and said, "It is estimated that Matthew's income this year will be on the Forbes Celebrity List." ”
Although both are Matthew Horner fans, Brian is fundamentally different from Daenerys, and with the assistance of Angels Agency and Bella Anderson, he has become the leader of a die-hard Matthew fan group in the Los Angeles area, often organizing members to cheer for Matthew.
Moreover, he is also one of the very few fan heads who can get paid.
With such a career, Brian is more attentive to running this fan association, and with the assistance of his father, he has carefully learned some things about Hollywood stars.
In addition to the value, the 20 million club is also an affirmation of the star coffee position, appeal and comprehensive value.
Although this is not the top star class in Hollywood, it has also entered the top ranks.
Daenerys swallowed the ice cream in her mouth and asked, "Brian, it's only been a few years since we saw the first movie starring Matthew? ”
Brian reminisced for a moment and said, "The first film in which Matthew became the real protagonist was 'The Scorpion King,' which I remember was released in 2002 and was only four years ......old."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "This speed is indeed incredible." ”
"yes. Daenerys took another bite of ice cream and grunted, "That's how Tom Cruise was back then." ”
Brian nodded and continued to read the newspaper, as there were other aspects mentioned in the report besides the pay.
Warner Bros. seems to be forging a long-term relationship with Matthew Horner, a box office star, and in addition to offering him a high salary, he has also agreed to make Matthew Horner a powerful producer in two projects, "Spartan 300 Warriors" and "I Am a Legend". ”
Seeing this, Brian suddenly felt that Matthew really had the potential to become a superstar like Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks.
Recently, with the help of his father, he also began to study Hollywood more deeply, and knew that the 20 million club represented the income level, not the Hollywood power list.
Hollywood's producer system is always a key link in Hollywood's value chain, actors are always one level lower, and producers and senior marketing planners are the core energy of Hollywood's gorgeous machine.
Therefore, there are countless star actors who want to seek to be signed in the producer column in the movies they starred in.
A seemingly simple signature, but it may bring a completely different situation, can also serve as a producer, even if it is just a name, the actor will get more power.
Based on this Los Angeles Times report, it is not difficult for Brian to tell that Matthew has begun to embark on this path.
The San Fernando Valley, like Burbank, is home to numerous studios.
However, the studios are rarely visited by Hollywood crews, and most of the time, they are used by local studios in the San Fernando Valley.
In a studio furnished as a simple home square, Kayden Cross, who had finished makeup, sat on the sofa chair on the set, opened today's "Los Angeles Times", and soon saw the entertainment page, and saw the name of Matthew Horner on the headline of the entertainment page, and couldn't help but read it carefully.
The film she is shooting today is related to Matthew Horner, the title is "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", and she plays the heroine Jane Smith.
Seeing the $20 million mentioned in the news headline, Kayden Close couldn't help but feel envious, she can also be regarded as a first-line actress in this industry, but when she can't work anymore, she may not be able to earn $20 million.
At first, she naively thought that the San Fernando Valley was the back door to Hollywood, until she joined the industry, only to find out that it was not at all.
"Hi Michael!"
"Michael, you're so handsome today!"
Hearing the sound of greeting on the set, Cayden Cross looked away from the newspaper and turned his head to look over, and actor Michael Sheehan, who played the male lead John Smith, walked over.
This is a very stylish handsome guy, and he is also very famous in the circle.
Michael Sheehan was in high spirits and strode through the set, as if he were the number one star of the entire crew, and now he does have such a capital.
The filming of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" allowed him to achieve a super high income of more than $50,000 for a single film, and he has squeezed into the ranks of first-line actors in the circle.
got the salary of this film, and his total income this year exceeded 200,000 US dollars in one fell swoop!
That's $200,000, and if you look at the entire set, the annual income can reach this figure, that is, the director and the heroine.
Michael Sheehan plans to get a new car at the end of the year, and he is optimistic about a BMW luxury SUV, which will definitely have a good face to drive.
"Hi, Kayden. ”
Michael Sheehan greeted Kayden Cross first, and then sat down in the sofa chair next to him, Keyden Cross nodded and responded with a smile, "Hi, Mike." ”
"What's the news?" asked Michael Sheehan, gesturing to the newspaper in Cayden Cross's hand, "I just saw you reading it very seriously." ”
Kayden Cross shrugged slightly, "Hollywood has another member of the $20 million club." ”
"Oh?" Michael Sheehan, who had been in Hollywood before, couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who?"
Kayden Cross pulled out the front page of the entertainment version and handed it over, "See for yourself." ”
Michael Sheehan took it and saw a long-lost name on the front page headlines at first glance - Matthew Horner.
Seeing this familiar and unfamiliar name, he quickly scanned the content of the report, and his hand trembled slightly, confirming that this was the Matthew Horner he knew.
Even if the content of the report is wrong, it is impossible for him to admit that the person in the picture next to him is wrong.
A few years later, Matthew Horner is in the 20 million club? Michael Sheehan is skeptical, but it's the Los Angeles Times, not a tabloid.
He let out a long sigh, just now he was still secretly rejoicing at the annual income of more than 200,000 US dollars, how far is this 200,000 US dollars from 20 million US dollars?
Michael Sheehan knows very well that he will never be able to catch up with Matthew Horner in his life.
Then, more news about Matthew Horner that he had read came to mind, and a wry smile appeared on his handsome face.
He earns $200,000 a year, and Matthew Horner earns $20 million from a film! He wants to spend a huge sum of money to buy a BMW luxury SUV with a lot of face, and Matthew Horner drives a Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV that is sponsored and customized for free......
Just like picking up the male lead in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", Michael Sheehan often pays attention to the information of that familiar and unfamiliar Matthew Horner.
Once, he also tried to do something, but no one believed the words of an actor from the San Fernando Valley, those slightly more serious media would not interview him at all, and several small gossip media without any bottom line also published his remarks attacking Matthew, but not even a small wave was raised.
As time goes by, Michael Sheehan's mind in this regard is getting weaker and weaker, because he gradually sees that it is too unlikely that someone of his status wants to attack an already popular star like Matthew Horner.
The industry gave him the monetary reward he wanted, but it didn't give him the glamorous shell he wanted.
On the other hand, Matthew Horner not only gained fame and fortune, but also became a charity ambassador of the United Nations after the success of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", and became a real upper-class figure.
A scoundrel with no culture and no quality has become a big celebrity in this way!
At the beginning of this year, when a company asked him to play John Smith, the actor of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", Michael Sheehan agreed without hesitation.
Because he knows very well that it is impossible for him to stop Matthew Horner, if it is only one or two levels apart, he still has hope, but now the gap between the two is too big.
He's still on Earth, but Matthew Horner has landed on Mars.
After years of working in the San Fernando Valley, Michael Sheehan has recognized many social realities.
"The big stars of the 20 million club!" Michael Sheehan, handing the newspaper back to Kayden Cross, "it would be nice if it were us." ”
Kayden Cross shook his head, "It's impossible. She stood up and walked to the set, "Filming is about to begin." ”
Michael Sheehan also stood up, looked up at the crew's parody of the poster for Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and once again confirmed the fact that he would never be as good as Matthew Horner.
