In a special report written by Gavin hunt for American weekly, he wrote, "this young actor, who has just entered the second half of his twenties, is walking on a unique road. No one knows how far and how high he can go. Each of us is the creator and witness of history. Please remember every moment now.".
The year-end Box Office figures of North America and the world are just a profile of the powerful influence of blue rite, which are presented directly in the form of figures; Similarly, Forbes magazine's major rankings also reflect the tip of the iceberg of all walks of life, and let people see the development of different fields in a miniature way.
Looking at the relevant list of entertainment industry, the name of lanli hall still dominates the list with a sweeping posture!
Since the introduction of the Hollywood power list in 1999, Forbes has been constantly updating and improving the selection criteria of the list, striving to keep pace with the times. With the comprehensive rise of social networks, the selection objects of the list have gradually moved away from the Hollywood framework, covering all walks of life, including models, professional players, writers, hosts, singers, even chefs, singers, etc Firefighters or... Internet Celebrities, as long as their fame is loud enough and their influence is broad enough, can be included in the list. The selection targets cover all public figures.
But it is worth noting that income is not equal to power.
In addition to the Hollywood power list, Forbes regularly publishes the Hollywood income list every year, which is another popular list worthy of high attention. However, the public figures with the highest income do not mean that they are the most powerful, because the reference data of the Hollywood power list includes not only personal income, but also the number of page hits, social network related data, the number of newspaper and magazine reports, etc Magazine cover times, TV and radio interviews, advertisers favor index, market business value, and the overall influence of entertainment industry and social culture, etc. This is a comprehensive list.
It's not easy but not difficult to make it into the Hollywood income list, because this is just a simple statistics. Top singers like Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Miss Gaga and so on can undoubtedly occupy a place in the Hollywood income list by virtue of the income of global tour concerts, far more than Meryl Streep Daniel Day Lewis, who is more active in art films, has a higher income. However, when it comes to Hollywood power, many unexpected changes may take place.
In 2014, the Forbes Hollywood income list, lanli no suspense to the top!
This is also the first time that lanli has won the list. Last year, with the excellent performance of "gravity", Langley was expected to dominate the list for the first time, but an unexpected situation occurred. Apple acquired beats, a headset company founded by Dr. DRE, which brought him 600 million dollars in revenue - the highest record since Forbes created the celebrity income list, and unexpectedly attacked Langley.
This year, there were no more accidents.
Among the difficulties set by Thomas Toure, Emma Thomas still unswervingly promoted the first cooperation between Langley and Christopher Nolan, with $20 million plus 5% of the box office bonus, which was a new record at that time - although it was soon refreshed by Disney's "grand theft one"; However, there is a premise that the box office of the film in North America can exceed 200 million.
Now, after a series of ups and downs, Star Trek's achievements in North America have easily crossed the 200 million benchmark and reached the 400 million height in one go.
This work alone has brought about 43 million yuan in revenue for lanli.
In addition, there are "super Marines" and "pop drummers" whose box office performance far exceeds expectations. Don't forget, as the producer of "Night Walker", blue Lee also enjoys dividends; In addition, the royalty income of Don Quixote is still in the steady stream, which also drives the income of Langley to over 90 million, and finally the estimated figure of Forbes is at 92 million.
This is only an estimated value, which is bound to produce deviation; As for the exact figures, they are all recorded in the bank account. It is estimated that only... Matthew can know.
From an objective point of view, the annual income of 92 million is not high. Last year, Forbes estimated that Lan Li's income reached 120 million, and Beyonce's income through concerts, clothing companies and endorsements also reached 115 million, Steven Spielberg made more than 100 million as a producer of many works - and then they all made less money than Dr. Drey.
Because this is an era full of business opportunities, even Justin Bieber has started to invest in his favorite Internet companies through Silicon Valley venture capital companies, such as Uber, instagram, snapchat and other companies that create Internet myths. Behind them, all the public figures in the entertainment industry can be seen——
Few people know that Ashton Kutcher, who once played the "Butterfly Effect" and was widely known, has been gradually away from the big screen in the past two years, but he may be the most profitable man in Hollywood. He founded his own venture capital company and made 250 million dollars in six years.
Ashton Kutcher's investment projects include Skype, airbnb, Uber, etc. Beyond him, Beyonce, Oprah Winfrey, 50 cent and so on all have their own companies - even business empires.
Compared with Lan Li, a conscientious actor who relies on acting to make money, their annual income is the real big head.
But just like this, Lan Li, who has no endorsement, no commercial performance, no off-site investment, and no self created brand, can still achieve such income. This is the most amazing part. It makes people feel his influence intuitively and vividly. The editor of Forbes magazine commented as follows:
"Langley Hall's energy is only now showing up in a small corner. In the fields of social networking, film industry and artistic creation, his reputation has the ability to shake the whole industry - and, of course, philanthropy. I am very happy to see that he is ready to use his strength. "
After the founding of Sisyphus film, the future development of lanli has entered a new stage.
In this list, Beyonce, LeBron James, Dr. Drey and Oprah Winfrey ranked second to fifth respectively.
Beyonce's husband, Jay-Z, also ranked sixth. The couple are also known as the world's most influential and attractive gold medal partners, and even the most representative couple in the United States. They have joined hands to build a business empire - they each own their own company and brand.
Langley's good friend Alan dejannis, with his excellent performance on the talk show, occupies the seventh place. Robert Downey, Jr., who has been in the spotlight for many times, occupies the eleventh place, and Steven Spielberg, who is still in the twelfth place. In addition, Jennifer Lawrence has also successfully entered the forefront, ranking 13th this year.
Throughout the Forbes Global celebrity income list, we can see a series of surprising and amazing figures, but also make people confused about how they should control the income, but it is difficult to really detect the truth behind the business empire, such as Oprah Winfrey.
After retiring from the talk show, Oprah spent more time on her business empire: she owned a television network and built a whole media empire around it. Her strong influence was rooted in all aspects of American society. Since Forbes began to publish Hollywood's income and power lists in 1999, only three people have been on the list every year, and Oprah is one of them.
But only professionals in the industry know that Oprah has been losing money until last year. In 2013, for the first time in the history of the TV network, the loss situation was reversed. This year, the profit of the TV network has just improved slightly, which is also the reason why Oprah began to enter the film industry, Oprah invested and produced the "White House housekeeper" who had a good performance in last year's award season.
In 2017, it was revealed that Johnny Depp was deeply involved in financial disputes for many years, and even on the verge of bankruptcy. Countless audiences were in an uproar. They did not understand how the former Hollywood first man fell into such a situation, but it did not cause any waves in the industry. It has long been no surprise.
So, compared with the Forbes Hollywood income list, Langley's price performance list is the real statistic that causes the earthquake effect.
Every year, Forbes publishes a list of "cost performance". To put it bluntly, that is, how much return on investment can a film company earn every time it invests a dollar in an actor - which can also be explained as how much profit the actor can earn for the film company.
This is the most important list of Hollywood Studios - income, which is the income of actors; Return, that's what the company is all about.
For the second year in a row, lanli won the list!
The most incredible thing is: lanli is not cheap. He has successfully joined the 20 million Hollywood club, which is directly proved by Universal Pictures' repeated pay problems in the "Jurassic world"; But even so, Langley's price performance still dominates Hollywood.
According to Forbes estimates, for every dollar a film company pays to lenley, it can earn a return of 66 dollars and 45 cents.
It's almost inconceivable for blue Lee, a member of the "20 million club". Just look at the top five actors on the list
Emma stone, second; Donne Johnson, third; Chris Evans, fourth; Jennifer Lawrence, number five.
The salaries of the above four actors have not been able to exceed the threshold of $8 million - although the salaries of Donne's acting in "speed and passion 7" have doubled, the film has not been released yet, which is not in the statistical range of 2014; And Jennifer Lawrence is expected to join the 20 million club after ending the hunger game series, but not now.
It's not just amazing to be a club with 20 million dollars to be the top of the price performance list.
