Chapter 167: Hi
Although the two had an intimate relationship, Nicole did not stay in Eric's mansion for another day, and obediently moved into the apartment that Eric had found for her that day.
Time enters August, for a movie that has entered the fourth week of release, the box office of more than 26 million US dollars can be said to be still strong, and the total box office has exceeded 150 million US dollars.
Moreover, the situation in the overseas market is more popular than in North America, although most overseas countries are released later than North America, and there are even many countries that have not been released, but in the countries and regions that have been released, they have won 12 first-week box office championships in one go, and in this case, it is certain that the overseas box office will be much higher than that of the mainland.
Although Columbia originally invested in this film with the purpose of not planning to make a profit but only to push up the stock price, the fact is that the other party can not only recover the cost, but also make a profit just by virtue of the box office, and the next videotape income Columbia is also destined to take the lion's share, although the videotape recovery cycle is very long, but in the next few years, this part of the income can also bring hundreds of millions of dollars in profits to Columbia Pictures.
And for Eric, this project is already in the past, and he just has to sit back and wait for the share.
Such a popular movie, according to Hollywood conventions, must have to shoot sequels repeatedly. But for the sake of safety, Eric is not going to participate in the sequel, the first classic is difficult to surpass, and the sequel in the previous life does not have many highlights.
If the script for the sequel in the future is very good, Eric only plans to involve Firefly in part of the investment. If the Japanese can make a good price, Eric can even sell the half of the rights to the fireflies to the other party. After all, without Cruise, without Eric, and only Hanks is left, it will be difficult for the sequel to create the glory of the first part of Zào, and with this kind of film investment convention, the cost of the second part will definitely increase greatly in the future, so it will not be too easy to make money again.
In the past of the project, Eric also began to work intensively in the second half of the year, first of all, the first two episodes need to be filmed by him personally, for which Fox has already played this gimmick out, because of the lens implantation, the public is also very much looking forward to this TV series. In addition, this is the penultimate film of the year, and it is actually the last one that Eric wants to make with his heart. Although Fox values it very much, this movie can't consume much energy from Eric in any way, not to mention that he also intends to follow the second script from his previous life, so that it will be easier to shoot.
Although it is only in the early preparations, the preliminary publicity work has been launched, and the news of the starring role has been quickly revealed, when seeing that the names of the male and female protagonists have been decided, many Hollywood actors who want to work with Eric are disappointed, Tom Hanks has not been questioned much as the actor, but Nicole, who seems to have appeared out of nowhere, has become the object of media pursuit. With the announcement of the starring information, Nicole's profile was ripped off by powerful paparazzi in just a few days.
Australian actress, winner of acting awards, debuted at the age of sixteen, and has no acting experience in Hollywood......
When this information was revealed, the girl quickly became the focus of a wave of controversy. The fact that Hollywood looks down on foreign actors seems to have spread to the media as well. Therefore, except for the promotional advertorial arranged by UTA for the girl, Nicole basically did not receive a few words of approval, almost one-sided criticism, and most of the media felt that Nicole was not worthy of getting the heroine of Eric's new film. From this title, the media also speculated that Eric was likely to return to that kind of romantic comedy. As a result, the Hollywood media ignored Nicole's current image, and instead picked up Nicole's rustic image in Australian movies and TV series with relish, criticizing the girl for nothing.
Of course, this criticism will also be counterattacked, the most fierce is the Australian media, although Eric only has a few works, and the rise is not long, but he has also accumulated a very big fame in Australia, no less than those big directors who have been famous for many years, so the Australian media are proud of their own actresses to participate in Eric's new film, and they have also made a lot of responses to the criticism of Nicole by the American media.
Nicole, who was at the center of the turmoil, did not feel any pressure at all, and she understood that the more the media made a scene, the more fame it brought her.
On August 2, in a huge studio on the Fox set, the film was quietly turned on.
Among the six leading actors, only Aniston is famous, and several other young people were unknown small roles before, and Eric chose them, in addition to their acting skills, but also because these people are very similar to the images of several leading actors in his memory. In addition, as newcomers, these actors are also paid very low, only $5,000 per episode. Eric originally wanted to secretly give Aniston a higher price, the salary information is confidential, as long as he doesn't say it, he won't be known by several other members, and even if it is known by the other five, the other party will definitely not say anything, Aniston is not only more famous than them, but also the producer's daughter, the director's girlfriend, they really compare themselves with Aniston It's just boring.
But Eric, a kind-hearted Tiyì, was righteously rejected by Xiao 丨 Niu, and instead took a $5,000 rookie salary for an episode like everyone else. Eric couldn't resist the little stubborn girl, so he had to take advantage of the situation to reveal the news, and it was not surprising that he received good results. Xiao 丨 Niu, like in her previous life, quickly got along with the other five leading actors and became real good friends. This result is very beneficial to the shooting, after all, if you become a real friend in reality, there will definitely be a tacit understanding during the shooting.
"Everybody prepare, Act 1, Scene 5!"
With the sound of the scene notes, in the Central Park Cafe, several leading actors began to chat.
The scene is that Ross is divorced from Lei's wife, carrying an umbrella and appearing in the café with a decrepit face. In the original version, Ross Geller, played by David Humont, made many viewers 'amazed' for the first time, just a simple 'hi' word, which made the audience instantly remember this thin and tall image in a wide coat.
