Los Angeles Star: "Crazy pirates! ”

Los Angeles Times: "Although Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Dead Treasure has only been released for less than a day, we can see from the first day that the biggest winner at the box office this year has come out. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Los Angeles News, American Pop Newspaper...... A series of newspapers began to frantically report on the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Treasure of the Dead", and all the things and people related to this movie were almost infinitely amplified.

Including conflicts with local natives, including Johnny? The conflict between Depp and other major actors and Dennis, including the song written by Han Kwon Woo when the typhoon came, and even Johnny? Depp's prank jumping into the sea has been dug up by the media.

In this regard, Han Quanyou can only sigh, endless sighs. No wonder people often say that the media in this year is the best agent reserve, and the paparazzi are excellent agents as long as they grasp the discipline a little, and their strength is really strong enough.

With "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Treasure of the Dead" completely popular and popular, the main actors who participated in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Treasure of the Dead" are naturally rising.

Johnny? Needless to say, Depp was originally a top Hollywood star, and with the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Dead Treasure", he went to the next level and began to talk to Tom? Cruise, Brad? Pitt and Nicolas Cage began to call for it, becoming one of the best quartet among Hollywood actors.

Kayla? Needless to say, with her beautiful appearance and unique British temperament, the British Rose officially announced that it had successfully entered Hollywood and gained a foothold.

Of course, the most dazzling person among them is Han Quanyou, the second male lead in the movie, the creator of the script of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Treasure of the Dead", the action director in the movie, and the soundtrack producer. This series of names was placed on Han Kwonwoo's head, which not only made Han Kwonwoo's popularity and influence begin to rise in Hollywood, but also made people know that an all-round and talented strong newcomer appeared.

Of course, Han Quanyou doesn't care about all this, and now what Han Quanyou needs to do is nothing more than talk to Johnny? Deppby who is crazy is waiting for news from Disney.

However, Disney did not let Han Quanyou wait long, and when more than ten days passed, as the national box office exceeded the $300 million mark, Disney could no longer sit still and had to call Han Quanyou to the negotiating table again.

Although Disney knows that the movie can have such a good box office success, this has nothing to do with Johnny? Depp's huge popularity has a lot to do with his appeal, but more importantly because of the excellent script.

Especially when the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Dead Treasure" was released in Asia, there was a wave of piracy. In this book, relying on strong economic ability, coupled with the quality of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Treasure of the Dead" itself, especially the popularity and appeal of Han Quanyou, and of course, it is more of the momentum of Ai Hui's company, which made "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Treasure of the Dead" win $200 million at the box office.

In China, it is relatively less, but it is enough to disagree with the dollar. However, South Korea's box office results surprised everyone, and it even exceeded 200 million US dollars, second only to Yuben, and the gap is not very big.

You must know that South Korea is not the capital, and its population and economic capacity are destined to have such a small market. But even so, with Han Kwonwoo's appeal and popularity in South Korea, the box office performance of the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Treasure of the Dead" exceeded the $200 million mark.

In this regard, the media throughout Asia, including the South Korean media, also had to exclaim that this is simply a miracle, a box office miracle belonging to "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Treasure of the Dead", and also a miracle belonging to Han Kwonwoo.

In this case, how could Disney still sit still. After proving Han Kwonwoo's popularity and appeal in Asia, negotiations naturally resumed.

"Lee, can you tell us what you're asking for?" looked at Han Quanyou with an indifferent face, George? Mitchell said helplessly, now for Han Quanyou, Disney is completely gone, after all, Disney is now begging Han Quanyou, not Han Quanyou asking Disney, Han Quanyou has completely taken the initiative.

"Well, I'm not a person either, since you said so, then I'll just say the request." See a helpless George? Mitchell, Han Kwonwoo thought about it and decided to do it simply. Don't see George? Mitchell is so old, and his youngest generation should also think of the old man, right?

"The cost of the film is 20 million US dollars, the script writing cost 15 million US dollars, and the soundtrack and action direction, if you need me, 5 million US dollars."

Han Quanyou unceremoniously said his request, although all this added up to 40 million US dollars, which was 10 million more than the 35 million he expected before, but compared with the nodding yes when he could get 30 million US dollars, it was 10 million US dollars more.

If it had been placed before, Han Quanyou would have been really embarrassed to make such a request, but when he thought of Johnny? Depp's $56 million salary, think of Tom again? Cruise direct dividend model. No matter how Han Quanyou thinks about it now, he feels that he is asking a little less, too shy, and embarrassed to make higher demands.

"That's $40 million, isn't that too much!" George? Mitchell didn't expect Han Quanyou to really dare to say it, looking at Han Quanyou's yellow skin, thinking that Han Quanyou had just entered Hollywood for less than a year, and he had only shot one movie. Although the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Treasure of the Dead" did well at the box office, George? Or does Mitchell think the main reason is because of Johnny? Depp's existence. In this case, Han Quanyou opened his mouth to be forty million dollars, George? Mitchell couldn't help frowning and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Stingy!" Didn't expect George? Mitchell is still too much, and he is not too little, even if he is very face-saving, Han Quanyou couldn't help pouting.

"Why?" George? Although Mitchell is old, his ears are not bad, and he just heard Han Quanyou's words, so he couldn't help frowning and looking at Han Quanyou, thinking of Han Quanyou giving himself an explanation. If Han Kwonwoo can't give himself a satisfactory explanation, then George? Mitchell doesn't mind using his connections to block and suppress Han Kwon-woo, so that Han, an Asian, knows how serious the consequences of learning about himself and Disney are.

"It's nothing, it's just that you're stingy!" For George? Mitchell's threat, Han Quanyou didn't care at all, couldn't help but stand up, and said disdainfully.

Subsequently, Han Kwon Woo went directly to George? Mitchell's side, patted George? Mitchell's shoulder, sighed, and said, "George, why do you have to worry about such a little money, does Disney care about such a little money?" ”

"Of course not!" Hear Han Kwon-woo's words, George? Mitchell stood up like a cat with its tail stepped on. "Joke, we Disney are behemoths, even Walt Disney Pictures is in the top ten in Hollywood, how can we care about such a little money. It's not that we care about the money, but it's at least worth the money. ”

Forget it, too lazy to talk to George? Mitchell said this, and Han Kwon Woo said directly: "George, may I ask what is the box office performance of the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Dead Treasure" in South Korea?" ”

"Two hundred and ten million dollars, what's wrong?" I didn't expect Han Quanyou to suddenly ask like this, George? Mitchell didn't react in a hurry, so he spoke directly.

"Isn't that just a pick-up? 210 million dollars, you wouldn't think that all this money is because the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Treasure" is good, or is it Johnny? Depp's popularity and charm will be obtained. It's not that I'm talking big about it, if I hadn't participated in this movie, it would have been very good for "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Treasure of the Dead" to break 100 million at the box office in South Korea. If I stop by this movie, I guarantee that the film will be a disastrous box office performance in South Korea. ”

Patted George? Mitchell's shoulder, Han Quanyou said, sat back in his seat, and raised his head confidently. For the first time in my heart, I thanked South Korea for the spirit of ultra-nationalism, and in other countries and places, Han Quanyou really didn't dare to say this, that is, in South Korea, coupled with his special status, popularity and influence in South Korea, Han Quanyou dared to say this sentence so arrogantly.

Han Kwon Woo believes that as long as he stands up and openly boycotts the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Dead Treasure", with his popularity, appeal and influence in South Korea, coupled with the ultra-nationalist spirit of South Korea, he will definitely feel that it will be a super brilliant success. At that time, the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Treasure of the Dead" will not mention achieving a box office result of 200 million US dollars in South Korea, and it will be great if it can achieve 10 million.

This kind of thing can only happen in an ultra-nationalist country like South Korea, and if it is placed in China, it will not play at all. It's like "Kung Fu Panda", what panda people resisted, said it badly, and stirred things up. But in fact, in the absence of ultra-nationalism, it is tantamount to advertising "Kung Fu Panda". Not only is it useless, but on the contrary, it will make the box office performance of "Kung Fu Panda" to a higher level.

"I'll admit it, but what does it have to do with your salary?" George? Mitchell asked, stunned.

This girl really has Alzheimer's, Han Quanyou shook his head helplessly, and said in a deep tone: "I won't say anything else, I alone can ensure that the box office performance of a movie exceeds 200 million US dollars." That's 200 million US dollars, and the investment in the movie "Pirates of the Caribbean 2 Treasure of the Dead" is equivalent to coming back all of a sudden. And you have to know that the South Korean market is very small, not the main market, the main market is still in North America. You give me a rich salary, I give you excellent movies, high box office returns, as long as my requirements do not exceed the bottom line of box office performance in South Korea, then what else do you have to hesitate and consider. ”

"Actually, to put it bluntly, the meaning is very simple, that is, let you pay me the money from the Korean box office, and I will carefully repay you for your better script and acting skills, so that you can earn all the box office except South Korea, don't you still understand this? You know, my request is not to ask you to give me all the box office income of the entire South Korea, only 40 million US dollars, only one-fifth of the Korean box office, what are you reluctant to do. ”

With Han Kwonwoo saying this, George? Mitchell couldn't help but be a little moved. Indeed, as Han Kwonwoo said, just holding one-fifth of the box office in the small market of South Korea can allow Han Kwonwoo to create excellent scripts and earn a lot of dollars in these big markets in Europe and the United States, what is there to consider.

Sometimes, just say the numbers, because there are too many numbers, which will make people a little reluctant and cautious. Sometimes it is easier to accept a different approach and describe it directly in terms of the market and fractions.

"Okay, since you said so, we Disney are not stingy people, we can agree to your request." Think about it for a moment, George? Mitchell finally agreed to Han Kwonwoo's request.

Anyway, 40 million is not a lot, it's really not a lot, think about the current box office results in the United States, it's not much at all. Add to that the box office in regions like Europe and Asia, and that's nothing short of significant.

Otherwise, Disney wouldn't be very bold in giving Johnny? Depp offered $56 million for this reason.

Of course, George? The reason why Mitchell agreed to Han Quanyou's request so readily now is not only because Han Quanyou said that George was moved? Mitchell, and at the same time thinking about Johnny? Depp, a white-eyed wolf, fanned the flames on the side and supported Han Quanyou. What's more, George? Mitchell is well aware that the script is the most important thing for a movie to do well at the box office.

"However, you have to make sure that the script for Pirates of the Caribbean 3 is also a high-quality script and can make a lot of money. Otherwise, we will give you 40 million US dollars, and you will suffer too much if you take the money and do not have to do things. "Seeing Han Quanyou's smug look, George? Mitchell couldn't help but remind.

It's only tens of millions of dollars, which is just a drizzle for the deep-pocketed Disney, just a small amount of money. As long as it can guarantee to make money, no matter how much Han Quanyou wants, Disney will definitely not be stingy in the slightest.

That's why Tom? Cruise is able to perform in the form of box office dividends, and can get up to $100 million in returns. Although Tom? Cruise makes more, but the studio makes more.

joke, I even dared to doubt my piracy ability, Han Quanyou was angry, and after being angry, he couldn't help but say a cruel word: "Okay, I promise that as long as there are no accidents, as long as Disney gives the crew full support, "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" will definitely be able to get 500 million US dollars at the box office worldwide." ”

Han Quanyou is right, after all, Han Quanyou is very aware of the box office results of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", which is 960 million US dollars, and Han Quanyou said 500 million, which is quite conservative, leaving a way back for himself.

"Okay, since you're so confident, then we'll sign a contract and write this thing down, what if the box office results don't reach it?" Seeing Han Quanyou so arrogant, George? Mitchell was also angry, and couldn't help but slap it on the table and carry it with Han Quanyou.

"No, I don't want a penny, just think I'm going to Pirates of the Caribbean 3 for free. When the time comes, I'll give you all the $40 million. "Yo~~~ This old guy still dares to carry it with me, with the prophet's bug, Han Quanyou has nothing to worry about, he didn't even think about it, he also slapped the table and promised George? Mitchell's request.

"Well, if "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" can break through the box office of 700 million US dollars, not only will we give you 40 million US dollars, but we Disney can also directly give you a 5% box office dividend, which can be written in the contract." Angry, George? Mitchell was also angry, Han Quanyou was too arrogant and conceited, he dared to drag him like this.

"Okay, five percent is a small amount of money, I can't look at it, the global box office has broken 900 million, and you give me ten percent of the box office." At this moment, Han Quanyou was completely excited, looking at George, who looked angry and seemed to have lost his mind? Mitchell, thinking of Tom's handsome guy's royal road mode, Han Quanyou suddenly proposed.

"Okay, that's no problem, if you can break one billion, I'll give you fifteen percent, as long as you break one hundred million, I'll increase it by five percent." George? Mitchell said angrily.

"Okay, no problem, sign the contract now." Han Quanyou was really excited, and he was a little trembling when he spoke, but he still couldn't help but propose, lest George? Mitchell reacted and repented.

"Of course, sign the contract now, Robert, you go and prepare immediately, and write the conditions we just made on the first page of the contract, and write them clearly." George? Mitchell didn't hesitate at all, slammed the table hard, and faced Robert? Iger roared.

Robert? Egger's efficiency is still very good, and in less than half an hour, the contract was taken out, in addition to Han Kwonwoo's salary and script fees, as well as action direction and soundtrack, in the box office dividend model, it is clearly written on the homepage. And compared with other content, the box office dividend model is printed in a larger font, which is more conspicuous.

Han Kwon Woo and George? Mitchell didn't say much, and when the contract was brought up, the two didn't hesitate at all, and directly signed their names, and then each took a copy, and Han Quanyou greeted Johnny directly? Depp Shine.

"Dude, you're too good, you're too good, you're really TMD my idol, but you're also too impulsive." Just walked out of Disney headquarters, Johnny? Depp said with admiration.

"Don't worry, Johnny, I know what I'm doing, I'm confident, I'm not stupid after all, hehehehe." Know Johnny? Depp was worried about something, Han Quanyou couldn't help but smile and said.

In the conference room just now at Disney headquarters, Robert? Iger looked at George? Mitchell, after hesitating for a long time, couldn't help but say, "Chairman, were you too impulsive just now?" ”

George? Mitchell laughed and shook his head: "Hahahaha, you treat me as a fool, of course I know what I'm doing, you think I'm a fool." If you look at the Hollywood series, it's simply not as good as the last. If this Lee really has the ability to create a good script and get good box office results, then what does it matter if he gives him a little points. At most, it is one billion US dollars, and he can only get 150 million, which is less than 200 million if you count the salary. Don't forget, there are still 800 million left, counting all other expenses, there will be at least 500 million left, all of which are ours, and we make more money at Disney, why don't I agree, hahahaha! ”

All of a sudden, Han Kwon-woo and George? Mitchell's two big and small foxes, both of whom had succeeded in their conspiracy, laughed uncontrollably.
