Netizens and the media participated in the discussion, and it made headlines on many websites and media outlets.

Many film critics and experts have expressed their opinions on this matter, and Roger Albert, the super-critic of the Chicago Sun-Times, is one of them.

He didn't go to New York to participate in the New York Film Festival, so he couldn't see "Little Sunshine Beauty" for the first time.

However, he has seen some reviews from friends and on the Internet, at least he feels that the reputation is good.

Coupled with the two films "Buried Alive" and "Super Burger King", he is very optimistic about Chen Tian's directorial career.

To this end, he also published an article in his column called "Justin Chen's Future Strength Director", in which he analyzed Chen Tian's ability to direct, screenplay, and finally control the production of the film.

subdivided Chen Tian from many aspects, and finally gave Chen Tian a powerful director who can occupy a place in Hollywood in the future.

But when he heard that Chen Tian had made a $100 million film appointment with 20th Century Fox at the New York Film Festival, he shook his head directly.

In his heart, Chen Tian was overconfident this time, he never doubted that Chen Tian would one day be able to shoot a film with a production of 100 million or even larger, but as Chen Tian himself thought, this requires a cumulative process.

At present, Chen Tian is a small system, and the difference between a small system and a large system is too big, and the more important thing is that Chen Tian agreed to come down under this agreement.

This made him feel that Chen Tian's mind was not very mature, and he was even worried that Chen Tian would be a little inflated because of "Buried Alive", "Super Burger King" and even "Little Sunshine Beauty".

One can be confident, but one must not be overconfident, because to be overconfident is to be conceited.

Roger Albert's attitude was relatively relaxed, and the purpose was to hope that Chen Tian would get better, but this time the agreement was a little too rash and hasty.

And the vast majority of the media are cynical and even belittled.

"Justin Chan would be a great director, but the 100 million blockbuster, sorry, I think it's a little difficult for him to get it done, and I don't think it's time to make decisions that are too rash.

If this film fails, then all the fame he has accumulated will be ruined, and his directorial career will be greatly affected. ”

"The collision between Justin Chen, who has inflated self-confidence, and David Ellison, who is not a billion, is not a lot of money at all.

20th Century Fox must be secretly happy that they got a great piece of publicity for free. ”

……

Alice and Roger, who had left the screening room at Lincoln Center at the New York Film Festival, also heard about it, and they were staunch supporters of Chen Tian.

However, there are so few such supporters, and most of them are expecting Chen Tian and David Ellison to become the laughing stock of the United States.

As the hard candy in the small screening hall was nearing its end, Matthew Runt announced that the title of the film was initially set to be "Operation Smith", and the specific title of the film will be announced at a later date.

At the same time, it was announced that the heroine of the film was determined to be Angelina Jolie, the male lead was initially locked in Brad Pitt, and the director was "Spy Heavy" director Doug Liman.

Brad Pitt will attract countless female fans, and Angelina Jolie will attract countless male fans, and the pairing of two super sexy superstars is enough to make countless people look forward to it.

"You can see what you want to see in it, and it's going to be a well-made action movie, and we're going to spend a year building it and making it a masterpiece." Matthew Runte was confident in the face of reporters.

Instead of 20th Century Fox promoting itself, the media took the initiative to participate in the promotion after Matthew Runt announced the cast of the film.

Because Angelina Jolie and Brand Pitt are enough to make them scramble to report, let alone two people together.

There are even gossip tabloids that Brad Pitt's wife has been revealed, and superstar Jennifer Aniston is very unhappy with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's cooperation, and even expressed concern.

Chen Tian and David Ellison played supporting roles in the references to Operation Smith, which was seen by 99.9 percent as a one-sided confrontation.

In the small screening room, Jennifer Lawrence's Hayley climbs over the wall, and the crew appears on the screen with the ending song.

Soon the lights in the screening room came on again, and although David Ellison had experienced it on the set and knew that the castration plot was fake, he was still scared into a cold sweat by the castration plot in the play.

Eric Lomis and Harvey Weinstein are no better, while the two women in attendance, Megan Ellison and Anne Hathaway, still seem to be reminiscing about the film.

"Justin, I don't know how to put it, it's a great thriller and suspense film just from the film, Jeff thinks he's a hunter, and Hayley thinks the same, and in the end Jeff becomes Hayley's prey.

The film deserves praise from the beginning to the end, and I can foresee that it will be a sensation. Eric Lomis looked at Chen Tian, "But it can also be very controversial. ”

"I know that the castration plot will bring controversy, in fact, the market targeted by this film is mainly women, and it is not terrible to be controversial, but it is terrible that there is no controversy, right?

The women's market is also strong, and if we can win it, I don't think this film will be too bad. ”

Harvey Weinstein laughed: "Justin, it's not supposed to be but for sure, but the release of this film may affect your image in the hearts of male fans, if you want to release it, you'd better do a good job of public relations in advance."

For example, to publicize the horror of this kind of man's sick thoughts, and to send out some surveys about this on some forums or websites, and then mobilize some hires to guide the mainstream view.

Even if you can't lead to success, you might be able to change some of them from opposition to support, and that may be much better. ”

Harvey Weinstein's advice is completely in line with Chen Tian's own ideas, and he originally thought that if he hadn't been vaccinated in advance, the release of this film would indeed affect his future film performance to some extent.

After all, male fans still dominate the current film market, and if the support of male fans is completely lost because of this film, then the gains outweigh the losses.

"I completely agree with Harvey's proposal, so let's talk about how to work together? Let's talk about "Little Sunshine Beauty" first, OK? Eric Lomis asked.

"Now that Harvey is involved, then we have a three-way cooperation, where Harvey takes 10% of the box office, I want to get 20% of the box office, and 20% of the revenue from DVDs and Blu-ray discs."

Chen Tian put forward his own request, and this sharing agreement is not a small amount just from the numbers.

"It's all box office revenue, not net revenue, right?" Eric Lomis asked.

If such a sharing agreement is really agreed, it is indeed not a small amount.

The net box office proceeds went almost entirely to Harvey Weinstein and Tian Chen, so that MGM was able to earn almost exclusively from TV on demand and videotapes.

Although these two parts of the income are the lion's share, he is a little worried that the rest of the company will not be able to agree to the agreement.

Harvey Weinstein on the side lamented Chen Tian's big appetite, he is a maker and naturally knows what the normal price of this circle is.

In the face of a large production that costs hundreds of millions of dollars, the big director can get an advance payment of 500 to 10 million US dollars in advance.

You can then get 5%-8% of the film's revenue after deducting the 15% distribution fee, depending on the film's income level.

If the final film does not exceed the break-even point, the percentage is 5%, and if it does, it is divided into another 8% from the excess.

As for directors with average income, such as DVDs, even if they do, they will not occupy more than 5% of the share.

And these shares are all established after deducting the distribution fee, while what Chen Tian proposes is pure box office revenue.

Even if the film is wholly owned by Chen Tian, such a share ratio is enough to surprise Harvey Weinstein.

"Yes, Eric I know it's a bit difficult to get this share agreement, maybe I can choose a one-time incremental share agreement.

On the basis of 20% of the income from DVDs and other products, I will take 10% if the national box office exceeds 50 million.

If it breaks $100 million, I'll take 20%, but I only need 10% of the overseas box office, and I don't want any TV revenue, and I don't need the total investment of $8 million.

However, I need MGM to pay me $10 million in advance, and this money will be deducted from the subsequent earnings, but MGM will need to bear other expenses. ”

Eric Lomis thought for a moment: "If it's less than 50 million? ”

"Then I only need to give me 10 million costs."

Chen Tian's words made everyone couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, only the cost was equal to Chen Tian's complete waste of work this time, and he completely made a wedding dress for MGM.

Even if the box office is less than 50 million, Eric Lomis believes that the total revenue will not be lost in the end.

MGM, on the other hand, only needs to spend expenses, and no more than $10 million.

This also means that as long as the box office is only 50 million, MGM will get 10 million or more in vain.

Eric Lomis was mainly hurt by the box office of the films released in the past two years, and there are almost no films that exceed the 50 million box office, so he thinks so.

"Justin, if that's the case, I can agree with your mention.

If Harvey is nominated for an Oscar, you'll get an additional $3 million from MGM.

If you are nominated and you win a prize, you will be awarded another $5 million for the main prize and $1 million for the rest of the awards. ”

"Eric, I don't mean anything." Harvey Weinstein shrugged.

"It seems that you guys have agreed on the little sunshine beauty, so it's time for "Hard Candy" next? Justin, you know what I'm asking for, and it's OK if you help me say it. David Ellison said with a smile.

He doesn't care at all about how much he can get for this film, $500,000 is too little in his eyes, and all he wants now is to PK with 20th Century Fox.

Now that the whole country knows what he said about David Ellison, he doesn't want to end up being embarrassed.

Even if he spends $200 million and loses money in the end, he doesn't care, what he wants is to shoot this film perfectly.

In the end, in "Hard Fruit Candy", Chen Tian and MGM reached a similar sharing agreement.

The starting point for the North American box office share is $20 million, with MGM splitting 5% to Chen Tian and David Ellison sharing 2.5%.

If the box office reaches 50 million, 10% will be given to Chen Tian and 5% to David Ellison.

If it can exceed $100 million, Chen Tian will take 20%, and David Ellison will take 10%.

However, this time, Chen Tian gave up the share of overseas box office revenue while giving up TV on demand, and put forward the requirement that the DVD market revenue share be 15% and David Ellison should take 10%.

Whether it is "Little Sunshine Beauty" or "Hard Candy", the sharing agreement of the two films far exceeds the sharing agreement of most films.

"This is our second and third collaboration, and I hope we can still have a good time working together in the next film." Eric Lomis said with a smile.

"Justin, David, now I feel compelled to talk about your agreement with Fox, it's not easy to be honest and it's not easy to bump into them, and it's ......"

Harvey Weinstein didn't say it explicitly, but Chen Tian knew what he meant.

"Harvey, I know your concerns, so I proposed that we would not start shooting until this time next year, so that I still have a year to improve, and I already have a plan for the next year."

Anne Hathaway naturally hoped she could be the heroine of a $100 million film, but she knew that was not realistic.

Glancing at Anne Hathaway beside him, Chen Tian suddenly thought of the book "The Queen Wears Prada" that he had just seen in Megan Ellison's hand.

The book topped the best-selling charts for 30 consecutive weeks, and Anne Hathaway became a superstar with this film.

The film shows a lot of topics that white-collar groups care about, and they are closely related to fashion.

In addition to the action, the appearance and clothing of the male and female protagonists in "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" undoubtedly show this, so Chen Tian is also ready to show this element in it, and he has to do it better.

Relying only on special effects and action scenes will always be a little lacking, and previous action movies didn't particularly care about this aspect.

Therefore, Chen Tian believes that if this part of the elements is added and can be used successfully, it will also be a boost to the box office.

In the film "The Queen Wears Prada", Chen Tian still remembers the outstanding performances of Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway.

The film was also a nominee for Best Actress at the Academy Awards, with Meryl Streep winning the Best Actress Oscar and many other awards, including the Golden Globes.

What's more, the film cost $35 million to make, which is still a low-budget production for a large company.

But for Chen Tian, it is a large-scale zuò, and it is also a film that transitions to large-scale zuò.

Of course, an important factor in addition to this is the box office of this film.

"The Queen Wears Prada" received a whopping $120 million at the box office in North America and a whopping 330 million worldwide.

For such a super high-income film, Chen Tian doesn't want to let it go.

And it just so happens that Anne Hathaway is around, and now Anne Hathaway has not filmed Ang Lee's "Brokeback Mountain" and other films, so the salary can save a lot of money.

"Already? I'd love to know, you're like putting a super dessert in front of me. Eric Lomis wanted to know what Chen Tian had planned.

Harvey Weinstein looked at Chen Tian with interest, today was the first time he had contact with Chen Tian, but Chen Tian had already given him a lot of things he didn't expect.

A bold idea popped up in his mind, and this thought also made his eyes become hot when he looked at Chen Tian.
