Chapter 1164

Leonardo, born in 1974, just turned 27 at the end of last year. Most of the actors at this age are still eager for a chance to make a big hit. However, for him who filmed Titanic at the age of 21 and became the world's hottest meat at the age of 23, his mind is full of ideas, not when he can make a big hit, but when he can regain his glory 。

The influence of Titanic in the history of film is needless to say, it has kept the record of the highest box office in the world since it was released, and this love disaster film is also the most familiar Hollywood work of the global audience. As the main actor of the film, Leonardo used to have unlimited scenery, but unfortunately, in Titanic Since then, Leonardo himself has been going downhill.

In recent years, he has been maintaining the output efficiency of almost one film every year, but these works are also very common in word-of-mouth and influence, not to mention the comparison with Titanic, even in the same period of that year, no one can lead the way.

Originally, Hollywood had lost interest in Leonardo, but fortunately, at this critical moment, Spielberg invited him to join the game of cat and mouse, and he was No. 1 actor, and even moved out Tom Hanks to play with him.

Leonardo regards the film as his own turning over work and has great hopes for it. But before the film was released, he was also worried that the film would be overshadowed by Lord of the rings 2. Unexpectedly, once the film was released, his worries became reality.

With the influence of the original book, the influence of the first film and its own excellent production, Lord of the rings 2 is definitely the box office champion at the end of the year. But unexpectedly, a push of YY completely reversed this situation, making the cat and mouse game that he starred in become the current box office leader.

Leonardo is completely impressed by Li Mu's powerful influence. With the powerful promotion channel of YY, Li Mu has been sought after by the whole Hollywood. If Li Mu's animal husbandry ticket system is popularized in North America in the next step, Li Mu's influence on the box office will be further enhanced. At that time, if Li Mu really enters Hollywood, the box office will have a very strong guarantee Barriers.

The real core of the film industry is the box office? Once there is box office guarantee, famous directors, famous actors, influence and Oscars are nothing.

From Li Mu, Leonardo seems to see the shadow of a new Hollywood giant.

"Cat and mouse game" surpasses "Lord of the rings 2". Leonardo, who is no longer so popular in Hollywood, suddenly becomes a hot figure. All kinds of famous directors and film and television companies are paying attention to him.

It's not just people in the industry who are paying attention to it. After the movie "cat and mouse game" became popular, Leonardo quickly gained a large number of fans in North America.

Netizens in North America discussed Leonardo and the cat and mouse game he starred in on a large scale on the Internet. The male audience was attracted by his acting skills and the intelligence of the characters in his play, and admired, while the female audience was stunned by his beauty. When countless female netizens posted on the Internet, they would attach the posters of Leonardo in the pilot's uniform, Because that perfect image has captured the hearts of countless female audiences.

Leonardo was immediately sought after by so many netizens, which also attracted the special attention of the media. In order to catch the news hot spot, recent entertainment reports almost put Leonardo on the front page, which further enhanced the influence of Leonardo.

Once people are lucky, good things not only come one after another, but also form a cycle to promote each other, which is the case with Leonardo.

Now because he is sought after by netizens, he is concerned by the media, which brings more fans to him, and at the same time, his popularity in Hollywood keeps rising, and he soon becomes a hot movie star. Now, almost every day, someone sends the script to him, hoping to invite him to participate in the performance,

This butterfly effect is common Change made Leonardo particularly grateful to Li Mu. Even though he knew that Li Mu's starting point was not necessarily to help himself, he still felt that he owed Li Mu a great favor for this matter.

At the same time, Leonardo also became more cautious. He knew that every success would not come easily, so he always reminded himself that we must be careful and prudent when shooting new films, and we must not take any more bad films that are impossible to catch fire.

At this time, he suddenly received a phone call from Spielberg. In the phone call, Spielberg said, "Leo, I recently had the idea of a new play, and the script has been basically completed. I just sent the script to your email. Would you like to see if you are interested?"

"Cat and mouse game" has given Leonardo another chance to cooperate with super first-line directors after many years. And this time, Tom Hanks, the super first-line God Movie leader, has benefited a lot from their cooperation. What he longed for most was to take on a new play by Spielberg or James Cameron. He didn't expect this wish to be so fast It's coming true!

Hearing that Spielberg had the idea of a new play and asked if she was interested in it, Leonardo immediately got excited and couldn't wait to say, "Steven, I can make a decision about your play without reading the script. Just tell me when and where to shoot it, and I will show up on time!"Spielberg laughed. "Don't you want to get a general idea of the movie first?"

Leonardo said without hesitation, "no, my answer is yes!"

"Most of the scenes in this movie are shot in China, and there are many scenes in the movie. It is estimated that you need to shoot in China for a long time after shooting," Spielberg said

"No problem!" "If you need to shoot on Mars, as long as you can send me there, my answer is still no problem," Leonardo said

Spielberg said with a smile, "OK, after you read the script, we'll talk about the more detailed cooperation plan."

“OK！”

After hanging up the phone, Leonardo excitedly turned on the computer, logged into her email, and was extremely excited. If she could cooperate with Spielberg again, it would be a great good thing for her. Spielberg's strength lies there. Even if she doesn't read the script, she can make sure it won't be a bad movie.

But Leonardo was still curious about the script. He wondered what kind of story Spielberg had prepared for Hollywood and even the world.

Like most Americans, Leonardo's understanding of World War II is mainly focused on the European war and the Pacific war between the United States and Japan. So when he saw the outline of the script, he even wondered at the bottom of his heart. What kind of character is Chennault who came to China to help China resist the Japanese invasion? Why hasn't he heard of it? Is Spielberg going to make a movie about such a person?

Leonardo's mind is somewhat uncertain. Hollywood's war movies are basically based on famous historical figures and famous battles, shooting an unknown figure and a battle that Americans don't know. Can such films have a market in the United States?

In a skeptical mood, Leonardo began to read the text of the script. What he didn't expect was that he was completely attracted by the text of the script when he saw the script. For the script that could have been finished in half an hour, he just watched it for more than an hour.

When reading the play, Leonardo was so excited that he didn't know that there were such people and such things in the United States in World War II.

For the Second World War, Americans have two of their greatest pride.

First, they helped the allies to land in Normandy and defeat Nazi Germany;

Second, they annihilated the Japanese Navy, bombed the Japanese mainland, dropped two atomic bombs and accelerated Japan's surrender.

These two events that Americans are most proud of are all the sacrifices, efforts and contributions made by the United States for world peace. It is precisely such deeds that can most inspire Americans' pride in maintaining world peace and being the world police.

So when Leonardo saw Chennault and his flying tigers, he was once again moved by the American's contribution to world peace. At the same time, he immediately realized that although many Americans did not know who Chennault was or the history of Flying Tigers, they would like to watch such a movie as long as it was made!

Moreover, the story itself can really impress Leonardo. In his opinion, the rebellious man No. 2 is just tailor-made for himself. Such a good story and script, as well as a good director like Spielberg, will not hesitate even if the pay is 50% off.

After reading the script, Leonardo saw Spielberg's remarks. When he saw that the film was invested by Li Mu and the investment was 100 million dollars, his whole person almost jumped up excitedly!

Li Mu's resources are so strong, if it is the movie he invested, the exposure must be the least to worry about! And Li Mu has YY, as well as Mu Ying ticket system. In this case, the box office doesn't have to worry about it at all!

What's more, Li Mu even put forward a budget of 100 million US dollars this time. With so many budgets and Spielberg's presence in town, the quality of the film has a perfect guarantee.

Taking all this information together, Leonardo concluded that the flying tigers is bound to be a good movie with high quality and high box office!

For an actor, what he wants most is to make a good movie with high box office?

Excited, Leonardo immediately called his agent and said, "I've got a script for a new play. I like this story very much. I'm ready for the next one."

"Whose movie is it?" the agent asked in a hurry

"A movie directed by Spielberg."

The other side excitedly said: "great! It's a great thing for you to work with Spielberg again! "

Say, the other side asks: "how much can be paid this time?"

Leonardo said: "I didn't say it's just in preparation, but Spielberg means I'll pay for it myself."

The other side said, "now that the cat and mouse game is on fire, your value has been greatly improved. According to my opinion, the market price of your film remuneration is more than 20 million dollars. But since you are cooperating with Spielberg director, we can lower the box office by 15 million. What do you think?"Leonardo said without hesitation, "I'm going to reduce my pay to five million dollars!"

When the other side was shocked and speechless, Leonardo added: "or even lower..."
