After Spider-Man swept the box office of the United States in this quarter with a data of 1 billion.

Then came the overwhelming coverage of them.

The reputation of the film team and William's company has risen, and Su Mu has gradually become a popular figure in the public eye.

If the Fast and the Furious had only had a small impact before.

So today's Spider-Man is to let the market see and recognize him as a Chinese actor.

Originally, Su Mu's follow-up work was also invited by major media for interviews, including some activities and so on.

However, Su Mu asked William to only pick a few more important ones to participate.

The others were all declined.

In his opinion, participating in these activities is actually not very useful.

First, the money given is not very much, and it is a waste of time to participate.

Secondly, even if he goes, it is just a gimmick for the public who still have a sense of freshness, and when the novelty passes, he will soon be drowned in the huge film and television circle of the United States.

And want to take advantage of the heat brought by Spider-Man.

In fact, the most effective way is to shoot the next work as soon as possible and continue to accumulate popularity.

So, after all the work on this side is done.

Su Mu asked Qian Jida to buy a ticket to Las Vegas.

At the airport, William personally came to see him off.

Looking at Su Mu, who was about to go away, William was a little reluctant.

After all, this is the brother he just made, the one who can sacrifice his life to film for himself!

"Is it really so fast to leave? Su Mu, there are still a lot of interviews and programs that you should be on, and others can't ask for such an opportunity.

The Yu Chenghao who played the Shadow Man next door is right, he can't even accept an invitation to a variety show, you are completely wasting your popularity and traffic. ”

Su Mu shook his head with a smile and patted William's shoulder: "It's okay, it's a long time coming." ”

He knew that William was saying this for his own good.

However, Su Mu has also been in the entertainment industry for so long, so he naturally knows which jobs are flashy and which ones are really helpful.

Instead of participating in so many activities, it is better to talk about the next work as soon as possible.

"Don't worry about me, I'm going to Van Disay this time, also for the rest of the job, of course, unless you can make a new movie for me, and the salary is not lower than what I am now, then I can stay."

William was a little helpless: "Su Mu, do you know what the concept of $35 million is in salary?" Your price is already the price of a first-line actor, I think, in the future, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to get a high price.

And our company's next step may not be to prepare for the second part immediately, and we are currently preparing to talk about the copyright of Spider-Man first. ”

Hearing William's words, Sue was a little puzzled.

"You've just made money, and you're ready to sell the copyright? Wouldn't it be too much of a rush? ”

William shook his head, and then explained: "In fact, our company portfolio structure is relatively complex, and the shareholders in it are distributed from all walks of life, and most of them are giant companies in the field of rice culture.

When we signed Spider-Man, we had a plan that if the movie could be successful, then we would sell the rights directly to the above companies and they would continue to develop them.

And they will make up for my company, which is higher than the market.

In fact, on the whole, no matter what, it is not a loss, of course, it does not delay the follow-up filming of Spider-Man, since it has been successful, it will definitely be filmed in the second part, rest assured, I will still try to find you to cooperate with you at that time. ”

Listening to William's words, Su Mu nodded.

Roughly understand the meaning, after all, the major shareholder of the company has no reason to refuse.

Didn't particularly care either.

Su Mu said goodbye simply, and boarded the plane with Qian Jida, Xiao Tangerine and Master Zhu.

…

Nothing to say all the way.

Sumu arrived in Las Vegas without incident.

After that they went straight to the hotel arranged by Van Diese.

The journey was tiring, so I didn't meet that night, but made an appointment for the next day.

Originally, Su Mu was thinking that after eating, he would go to the casino below to play two handfuls.

However, considering that he has just made a name for himself here, it is better to have less lace news.

In case it is calculated by someone with a heart, the gains outweigh the losses.

Next.

Van Disey came to the hotel early.

After seeing Su Mu, he gave a big hug.

"I can't think of it, Sumu! You have gained a firm foothold in Hollywood with only two works, and the box office has broken 1 billion, my God...... I've been messing around for so long, and I'm not as good as you, so I'm really envious. ”

Su Mu shrugged his shoulders, very modest: "It's nothing, it's just luck." ”

"......" Van Diesse was speechless, obviously not believing Su Mu's words.

In fact, he also took care of some news during this time.

Of course, he understands that Su Mu's current achievements are due to his hard work.

Doing such a dangerous rock climbing maneuver on a tall building is impossible for anyone else to do.

So the achievements are well deserved.

When he played Fast and Furious with him, Van Dysee knew he wasn't a pool thing.

Now it also confirms the original judgment.

It's just that the only thing I'm worried about is that if I find Su Mu to shoot 'Furious 2' again in the future, how much should I be paid...

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while.

Then I went to Van Diese for a meeting to explain the problem about the TV series "Prison Break".

Van Diese was in no detail and explained the situation.

"So, that's pretty much it, I was originally the main actor at that time, but they felt that I still didn't fit the image, so I had to change it.

That's when I thought of recommending you, how about it, I'm not a good friend, hehe. ”

"Yes, you are a good friend." Su Mu thanked him sincerely, and then continued; "So, if I participate, how much will I give?"

"......" Van Disse had a black line on his face: "Su Mu, you must know, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I have read this script, it is absolutely awesome!" ”

Su Mu: "Well, of course I know the, so how much money do you give me?" ”

In his previous life, he set off a ratings frenzy, and the salary must not be less.

Van Diese: "Well...... this"

Listening to Su Mu's question, he was suddenly a little embarrassed.

Su Mu: "Say it. ”

Van Dise: "Actually, when I first recommended you, I didn't say the offer, but it shouldn't be too low, your current box office record of 1 billion will not be too bad after all......"

Su Mu: "Old Fan." ”

Van Diese: "? ”

Su Mu: "You should know me, how can you ignore such an important link?" Forget anything and can't not offer, since you came to me, you should understand that I am very expensive, Spider-Man gave me 35 million before, so my current salary cannot be lower than this amount, otherwise it is better to return to China to make money quickly. ”

The corners of Van Dyse's mouth twitched as he listened.

That's why you liken such a good opportunity to making money......

Van Diesse: "It's impossible to give you such a high price now, unlike movies, the commercial value of TV dramas in the early stage is not that great. ”

Su Mu: "It's not okay to have less money. ”

Van Diese: "So, we're going to learn about the future of this film!" Believe me, the TV series of prison break will make you gain more than just a salary. ”

Su Mu shook his head: "I just need money." ”

Watermar ...... Van Dyse wanted to strangle the man.

You're the first Asian brother!

Hollywood's rising star!

Can't you just get a face?

Su Mu: "I heard before that in addition to me, they have three other candidates, I want to know, if they find the other three, what is the salary?" ”

Van Dise sighed: "The other three are all big names who have been famous for a long time, so the price will naturally be higher, but your advantage is good quality and low price, isn't it?"

If your price is higher than theirs, then the advantage can't be shown, how can you compete? ”

Su Mu looked at Fan Disse strangely, and spoke seriously; "Old Fan."

“……？”

"I don't think you know me well enough, how can my advantage be the price? Only the vegetable force will fight the price war, and the high-end game is all won by technology. ”

Van Diesse was confused: "What technology?" ”

Su Mu: "Of course, it's an irreplaceable technology, so the price is easy to negotiate." ”

“？？？”

Van Diese was even more confused.

He has been in the industry for so many years, and he doesn't know what kind of role is impossible to replace.

Doesn't seem to have it at all?

Looking at Fan Dise's expression, Su Mu didn't bother to explain to him anymore.

Some things are still subject to actual operation.

Then he changed his words: "Okay, let's put this issue aside for a while, and when the time comes, I will meet the crew and producers, and I will go and talk to them in person."

Now you've got to tell me what kind of competition I'm going to face, and you mean, I'm going to compete with three other guys for a role? ”

Van Diesse nodded: "That's right, the other three are all actors with big coffee positions."

Qilu Russell, Dimudevich, and Blanch.

These three are all stronger in acting skills than that Will Johnson.

As for the drama of prison break, the director team told me at that time that they only care about acting skills and matching, and everything is subject to this.

Therefore, if any of you have a higher understanding of the script, a better performance, and the best match, the odds will be greater.

And like you said, if you can really play to that kind of realm that you can't do, then you will be sure.

This time, the investor has high expectations for this film and attaches great importance to it.

They have even contacted several local prisons in the United States to prepare for on-site shooting, which is exciting to think about.

So it is almost expected that the ratings and popularity will not be low after the shooting. ”

It is precisely because of this that I want to say, you had better press the salary, as long as you can be the male number one, it is worth it. ”

Van Diese persuaded hard.

Su Mu was also quite moved: "Old Fan, thank you, I understand." ”

Van Dies: "It's good that you understand. ”

Su Mu: "Don't worry, I'll let them add money and add less when the time comes." ”

Van Dyse vomited blood: "......"

Good guy, this special oil and salt don't go in.

Can you die if you make less money?

What about your dreams?

What about the original intention?

…

After talking to Van Diasey, it was already evening.

Originally, we were going to have dinner together, but Van Diesse suddenly had something to do and had to cancel it in the end.

Anyway, Su Mu has to live in Las Vegas for a few days, and there will be a chance later.

Sit back to the hotel on the way.

Qian Jida looked at Su Mu with some doubts, and stopped talking.

In fact, when he talked about it at the previous meeting, he wanted to say that there is no problem with a lower salary.

As long as this jailbroken TV series can create a greater repercussion, it will also be earned.

can make Sumu reduce the price, which is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

"Sumu, so... What the hell do you think? The salary is too high, I think the opportunity is very small, this time there will be no more producers like William, and Van Diese and that side actually don't have much say, so it's hard to get a high salary, what to do? ”

Su Mu looked back at Qian Jida: "It's the same as before." ”

Qian Jida: "??? ”

Su Mu: "How to increase the money when filming in the past, this time they still let them add it." ”

Qian Jida: "......"

Quiet inside the car.

This was said lightly, but Qian Jida couldn't help but complain when he heard it.

The company here is rich, but if you say add it?

How can it be so easy to make money.

When you are in China, you can turn your hands into clouds and fool those investors into 'spoiling you'.

But now it's abroad.

Qian Jida really didn't know how to add money: "Su Mu, should you do something again?" ”

Su Mu smiled: "I'll talk about it when I get the script." ”

“？”

…

A few days later.

Through Van Diese, Qian Jida has already contacted the crew and started to communicate directly.

According to their meaning, the salary offer for Su Mu will not exceed 20 million US dollars.

Of course, the specific talks have not yet begun, and the two sides are not too entangled, just verbally.

After all, there is such a thing as salary, which can be changed at any time.

Su Mu got the script for "Prison Break".

Subsequently, I spent the whole day brushing in my hotel room.

The plot is roughly the same as in the previous life.

It's just that what Su Mu wants to summarize is how he can show his advantages in the role of the male protagonist.

If it's the same as Spider-Man, it's a difficult action scene throughout, it's okay to say.

Whether it's kung fu or difficult gymnastics, including stunts performed by Hanging Weiya, he is confident that he can take out those three competitors.

But the drama of prison break is different.

Although there are also thrilling action scenes, this is by no means the core of the male protagonist's brilliance.

The wonderful point of this drama lies in the refreshing rhythm and plot.

In the story, the male protagonist has escaped from prison to the extreme, and every detail is addictive.

So

Su Mu felt that he wanted to play the role of the prison escape male protagonist.

It's better to have real feelings.

For those who have not escaped prison, it is difficult for them to understand the tension and mentality in that environment.

The experience of performing must be different from the experience of escaping from prison.

After a day of deliberation.

Su Mu gathered four people and prepared to have a small meeting.

"Everyone, just prepare to compete for the male protagonist of "Prison Break", let me say a few words.

First of all, I decided not to return to my home country for the time being...... I need an edge... What is it...... Imprisonment... Only when you enter can you have more, and only when you get in, can you have an advantage......

So, if I don't go to jail, who does!

By the way, which of you is with me? ”

[Speech +1]

[Skill +0.01]

Qian Jida: "...!! ”

Little Tangerine: "...!! ”

Master Zhu: "Okay. ”

Su Mu was pleased: "Thank you, Master Zhu, for being willing to accompany me." ”

Master Zhu: "......?" ”
