Chapter 1618

63.5 million dollars.

With the brilliance of "gravity" alone, Langley has achieved the goal of other actors in their whole life. From "tomorrow's edge" to "gravity", Langley has contributed top box office works for two consecutive years, which makes Langley soar to the sky and instantly become the hottest actor in Hollywood.

Johnny Depp took over "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" and Robert Downey Jr. took over "Iron Man 3". The two actors both set Hollywood's highest pay record one after another, which can be said to be worthy of the top existence in the whole film industry. However, the two actors are famous relying on the series of films, and their pay will be greatly reduced after leaving the series of films, This is also an objective fact.

That's why marvel and DC's copyrights are so highly valued - major film companies know that xiangmomo is not Johnny or Robert, but the comic adaptation right (IP).

Lanli is different.

Gravity is not a sequel and there is no sequel; Up to now, lanli has not shot any sequel works - "speed and passion" has only shot one sequel, and the script of "tomorrow's edge" is still in the process of writing. Meanwhile, lanli has only shot one adaptation of the original novel or cartoon "tomorrow's edge".

In other words, lanli's market value is totally accumulated by itself, just like Tom Hanks, Tom Cruise and Will Smith in the 1990s. Such superstar value is the most worthy of respect.

Just relying on its own market appeal, Langley broke the record of Johnny and Robert's film payment, and reaped an unprecedented $60 million in film payment, which is definitely a milestone in the history of Hollywood film industry!

When Langley just entered the "Star Trek" production group, Jessica chastan and Anne Hathaway once ridiculed the name of "Mr. 500 million", because the box office of Langley's two consecutive works in North America exceeded 500 million, and no artist except James Cameron has been able to reach such a high level for the time being.

Now, from "Mr. 500 million" to "hundreds of millions of wealth", it also means that the focus falls from the market appeal to personal wealth, and the aura of lanli instantly blooms incredible energy.

What's more, it's not all.

"Drunken folk songs" followed closely.

At the beginning, lanli and the "drunken folk" had been wandering around each other for a while, but the Cohen brothers still gave absolute trust and insisted on waiting for lanli to join in, which eventually led to this cooperation. As for the film payment, the Cohen brothers were also very generous and gave the greatest convenience within the budget.

After careful consideration, under the advice and operation of Andy Rogers, he formally joined in the form of cash plus dividend

$500000 base salary plus 5% North American box office bonus.

But obviously, even Andy himself did not expect the "drunken folk" box office in North America to usher in an all-round outbreak, becoming the most unimaginable independent work of art in history. In a trance, he once again let people see the year when the "vulgar novel" was born.

In 1994, the tripartite confrontation of Forrest Gump, Shawshank Redemption and vulgar novel can be regarded as a story that goes down in history and is still talked about by people. Among them, "vulgar novel" is no doubt a heterogeneous one, not only an independent work, but also an innovative work that breaks the linear narrative structure, It established Quentin Tarantino's position in the history of North American film.

At that time, the "vulgar novel" only invested 8 million US dollars to earn 107 million box office in North America, ranking 10th in the year-end North American box office ranking. It was the first independent work in the history of film to break the box office of 100 million US dollars, which completely changed the rules of the whole film market.

Many people wonder why the historical status of "vulgar novels" is so high?

First, Quentin brings a brand new narrative technique, which is the third Hollywood film innovation after "Citizen Kane" and "male and female thieves"; Second, it's an independent film, which breaks away from the assembly line operation of major film companies and brings new enlightenment to the independent film industry.

Third, and most importantly, box office success.

At the same time, "vulgar novels" also proved that independent films can also achieve a good box office, which is a strong positive impact on the whole film market, and then directly gave birth to DreamWorks, focus film, Fox Searchlight and other companies, Since then, six major Hollywood film companies have set up their own independent brands, and Sony classic, which was founded in 1992, has grown rapidly.

All of them make the "vulgar novel" a legend in the industry.

Now, the "drunken folk" also shows signs of reshuffle of the industry. Whether it can reach the height of "vulgar novel" will depend on time.

But at least to be sure, the $200 million box office in North America is enough to make "drunken folk" an indispensable place in history.

With "drunken folk songs", Lan Li's film income also reached 10.5 million US dollars.

In terms of figures alone, it can't be compared with the 60 million of "gravity", but a very interesting figure is worth paying attention to: the production cost of "drunken folk" is only 11 million. Now lanli's personal film payment is almost equal to this figure. From the side, we can see that the film payment is incredible.

Combining the two works, in less than two months, lanli's income was as high as $74 million!

There are no endorsements and sponsorship, no commercial performances, no personal brand, no commercial investment, and only relying on the income of film remuneration. In the year-end income list of Forbes, lanli is well deserved to occupy the top position, beat little Robert Downey, and become the most profitable new rich in the United States!

Look at the list of the most profitable actors in the United States over the past decade——

Robert Downey Jr. in 2012, Johnny Depp in 2011, Robert Downey Jr. in 2010, Robert Downey Jr. in 2009, Harrison Ford in 2008, Johnny Depp in 2007, Johnny Depp in 2006, Tom Cruise in 2005, George Clooney in 2004 and Johnny Depp in 2003.

A new face has finally appeared this year! Besides, this is the actor of generation Y!

This shock to the whole film industry is unparalleled. When Forbes announced the list, when the exhibitor relationship announced the year-end box office of North America and the world, everyone was a sensation!

From the baby boomer generation to the X generation and then to the Y Generation, the X generation has never been able to complete the succession feat, and now it has finally found a successor in the Y Generation!

After the "Avengers alliance" swept away in 2012, the film industry has been sighing: Hollywood has no superstar since then, only copyright (IP).

Marlon Brando in the golden age, Harrison Ford and Tom Hanks in the commercial awakening era, Tom Cruise and Will Smith in the 1990s, and Leonardo DiCaprio at the turn of the century... The personal charm of these top stars has given the film more unique colors, but now they have all died down.

Everyone is curious about who can take over the burden of box office superstars, but the result is that copyright has become the favorite of the market, which also makes the charm of the film fall on the shoulders of computer special effects, assembly line operation and adaptation of the original works, so the personal charm of the actors gradually annihilated in those modular film structure, which makes people choke.

After all, the times are still submerged in the torrent of history.

But now, I'm afraid they need to take it back.

Nevertheless, people in the industry are jubilant and welcome the return of lanli with countless applause. Perhaps, because they finished egot at a young age, people are disgusting with the strength and hegemony of Lan Li; Now, because lanli reappears the glamour of actors in the golden age, he has won the favor of the industry once again.

In fact, it is so wonderful that business and art, which seem to be independent factors, are always relying on each other, supporting each other and inseparable.

As a result, there are many rumors in the "Star Trek" crew. It's like this moment.

"Lanli has always been so dedicated, haven't you heard of it before? He was on the set of "speed and passion 5" and fought with van diesel himself. Now he just keeps his style. I don't think it's necessary for him to maintain his image project at all. Are there few rumors about him in the industry? "

"That's true. Even in order to maintain his image, there is no need for him to work so hard. If it's me, I'll just sit by and have a rest. I just need to go on the stage when I'm actually shooting, so that everyone doesn't dare to say anything

"I've just heard from Langley and Chris that they need to consider the impact of weight on waya. Langley also hopes that he can adapt to waya's performance feeling in advance. He hung waya in the edge of tomorrow before, but not many times. He still hopes to adapt well. What's more, it's still high-altitude performance. It's almost three or four floors away from the ground. He also needs to adjust it. "

"I just don't think it's necessary for him to work so hard because his wealth is over 100 million."

"Do you think he doesn't know that he is worth more than 100 million? After all, who would be bored and have to look through their bank accounts? "

"We poor people will. Ha ha ha ha

"In my opinion, Universal Pictures is going to be a fool if Langley works so hard. So many opportunities have not been seized. "

"Haven't you heard? Actually, it's all... It's all... Wait, he didn't come to the scene today, did he? In fact, it was Thomas tour who tried to control the power, but Langley didn't buy it at all, which led to the deadlock. "

"The version I've heard is that lenley doesn't ask much for the pay at all. He just thinks it's a good thing to re cooperate with Paul Walker. The dinosaur project is also because of Steven Spielberg, but universal has been paying cards all the time without any respect. Lenley doesn't care at all and just turns around and leaves."

"Now globegroup is going to be ruined, isn't it? Kevin's a little bit more visionary
