Which type of job pays the most in Hollywood's salary system?

Many people will not hesitate to choose actors, such as Tom Hanks's salary has reached an astonishing 25 million + 5% box office share, Schwarzenegger 23 million + 5% box office share ....... But if you really want these superstars, they will not hesitate to say that they are big-name directors. Small directors get paid, big directors generally get dividends, and for big-name directors, a salary of 20 or 30 million is simply pediatrics.

China Ming, Chris Columbus, and Frank Delabant...... These directors are scarily low-paid, but their incomes are frighteningly high, because they invest in their own films. For example, "My Fair Daddy" made Chris Columbus net more than 70 million, plus subsequent income and the like, at least more than 100 million US dollars; What's even more terrifying is that China Ming, "Jurassic Park", the world's first blockbuster with a total box office of more than one billion, let him take $250 million in box office shares and film dividends in addition to investment dividends.

The income of other big-name directors in Hollywood can only be guessed, because their remuneration is relatively fixed, but the outside world has no way to inquire about box office sharing, dividends and the like. For example, Spielberg's "Raiders of the Lost Ark 3" has a North American box office of 310 million and a global box office of 780 million, how much can he get? The media speculated that it was more than 100 million, but in fact, the follow-up peripheral income was at least more than 300 million, because this film was jointly invested by him and Sun Ziming, and the income was half of each.

"Compared to the director, we are a bunch of beggars! You see, after the success of "Broken Arrow", Sen's salary for filming "Changing Face" immediately soared from $2 million to $12 million, plus box office sharing and the like. Ming, am I right? ”

Sitting next to the camera in the weightless Boeing KC-135 plane, Sun Tzuming, who was gobbling up, quickly snatched the newspaper from Hanks's hand. Paramount announced an investment of $60 million to prepare for the filming of "Changing Face", directed by "Master of Violent Aesthetics" Wu Yusen, with a salary of 12 million plus 5% box office share, and all the 12 million salary is converted into film investment .......

, that guy Brian must be using himself as a tiger skin again, otherwise it would be impossible to help Brother Sen get such a high salary. However, Brother Sen's filming of this film is indeed worth the price!

Hmph, after the success of "Changing Face", Brother Sen will definitely become an A-level director, and it will be impossible not to get a salary of 20 million. That's good, finally let him come out!

"Ming, you haven't answered my question yet."

Sun Ziming, who was pondering with taste, put down the newspaper and said mockingly: "Why don't you become a director?" Tom Cruise wants to change careers, why don't you try it too? No matter how big a star is, it's just a prop in our hands, and it's not enough to give you such a high salary?"

Cinema is the art of directing. The quality of a film is in the hands of the director, and even those superstars are just props in the hands of the director, which is recognized. Tom Hanks also complained. It's impossible to really let him change careers, everyone has their own good things, not every great actor can change careers to become a director!

Seeing that he was speechless, Sun Ziming took advantage of the victory to pursue and flaunt his fairness, "If it weren't for the box office of "Forrest Gump" exceeding my imagination, the ghost would give you a salary of 25 million plus 5% box office share for this film, do you really think I am a philanthropist?" This is to compensate for the loss of your last part, I am the most fair person to do things! ”

Sun Ziming's self-boasting made Gary Sinis, who was so uncomfortable next to him that he wanted to vomit, raised his middle finger, "Ming, you are the most shameless!" If you want to be fair, you should let us invest as much as we want! ”

"That's it", Hanks and they all agreed, "Forrest Gump" can get a box office of 330 million for a literary film, and this movie will definitely exceed 200 million. China Ming's movie is synonymous with making money without losing money, or Tom Hanks will say so much nonsense at length?

Who would have too much money? These people have nothing to do, and they talk about this topic with their grandson, just because they want to have dates to play a shot, and they can play a shot without dates. What if one day Sun Tzu is confused and agrees to increase everyone's investment?

Sun Ziming also gave them a middle finger and said disdainfully: "Cut, if it weren't for your contribution to "Forrest Gump", I would have looked for those one or two million actors a long time ago, and it would be your turn to act?" People who want to act in my movies can line up from my doorstep to Marbury Beach! ”

"Don't do it, don't do it! It's been more than eight hours, and everyone calls it a day and goes back to the hotel to sleep! ”

This is very hurtful to self-esteem, if James Cameron said it, these people will turn their faces, but from Sun Ziming's mouth, these people coaxed and said that they would strike.

Everyone knows that Sun Ziming is indeed the best boss in Hollywood, and he has always put everyone's interests at heart, otherwise he would not have used the original crew members of "Forrest Gump" to shoot "Apollo 13", and he also offered a treatment that was higher than the market price.

What kind of line is this, "Apollo" Christmas is about to be released, and now it's August, and there is a post-production zuò behind, which is the time to rush for time.

"Alright, alright, I'll take back what I just said, you're all the best actors in Hollywood. Especially Mr. Hanks, two little golden men, is simply the number one actor in Hollywood......"

Sun Ziming's joking and numb touting made these guys sit down proudly again. It's no wonder that these people have nothing to do and make trouble, it's too uncomfortable to shoot weightless pictures. The plane rushed to an altitude of 20,000 meters, and then fell down in free fall, and the physical discomfort had to be controlled on the expression and body movements on the face, which was also a kind of torment for anyone.

After a joking, Gary Sinis came over and gossiped: "Ming, is it possible to get another 300 million this time?" ”

This kind of prediction, Sun Ziming has never given accurate words, shook his head and said, "How do I know? This is not a commercial film, and I was not sure before "Forrest Gump" was released, otherwise I would not have asked Hanks to reduce his salary. ”

"What about 200 million?"

Sun Ziming looked helplessly at the circle of gossip men next to him, and this topic would be asked almost every few days, "Do you really want to hear the truth?" ”

"Of course"

"About 100 million, this is still based on the box office appeal of me and Hanks. Gentlemen, don't ask such stupid questions in the future, I'm not a god, not every movie will create a box office miracle! ”

"Cut! With an investment of 1.4 million, you can get nearly 100 million at the box office, and the ghost will believe you! ”

"That's it, now the follow-up income is more than 200 million earlier, right?"

"Ming, if you want us to believe that you are not God's illegitimate child, you can make a big bad movie for us to see! Oh God, please forgive me for my rudeness. ”

Sun Zi Mingle said, "Okay, as long as you take out tens of millions, I will make a big bad movie with a box office of 10 or 20 million for you to see!" Have you rested, Doug, inform the captain, let's continue. ”

A new round of intense and uncomfortable filming began, and the Boeing KC-135 weightless aircraft was only 25 seconds at a time, so the shooting had to be done against time. If you don't hurry up, you're burning money, but everyone has invested in this movie, wasting the crew's money is wasting your own money!

Fortunately, after a few days, everyone physiologically adapted, and the shooting speed also accelerated significantly, and finally the whole shot was completed by the end of August. After filming the last shot, Sun Ziming didn't wait for the crew, and rushed back to Los Angeles by business jet.

Brother Sen is about to come out, and his right-hand man Liu Weiqiang has to be pushed up, he said that he wrote a script that made people's blood boil, and he didn't know what it was written. Anyway, Sun Ziming decided to let him shoot, the big deal is to lose some money, 'a flower blooming alone is not spring, and thousands of purples and thousands of red springs are full of spring'!
