You Made Me a Superstar - Chapter 505
Chapter 505 The Lion’s Big Opening
The shooting progress of “Spider-Man” was not fast.
Before the shooting of the project, many actors with action scenes were forcibly pulled to the training ground to exercise.
Cruise was in great pain.
He found that when he played Zhou Yang’s films, he would be tossed to death.
When “The Saw”, he spent the whole process in fear, and even after filming “The Saw” for a long time, there was still a little lingering psychological shadow.
And this Spider-Man…
He played the protagonist’s good friend Ai Wen in the movie. In fact, there are not many action scenes, but he helped himself at the most critical time, saved countless people, and finally died heroically.
But even so, he was still forced to do half an hour of squatting every day, while doing the most basic sanda training.
He suddenly regretted running over to fight with Zhou Yang for this role.
When other people act in superhero movies, they use special effects to solve them, while Zhou Yang makes superheroes…
How come it looks like a martial arts movie?
“are you OK?”
“I’m all right, Mr. Trenster, how about you?”
“I…I don’t feel well, my legs seem to be numb…”
“Damn it! I regret it, Trenster!”
“Me too… But, we signed an agreement, we can’t leave unless the “Spider-Man” filming is over!”
“Ahhhh!”
Early morning on November 20th.
Trenster, who had just finished his horse stance, sat on the ground, his feet twitched wildly uncontrollably, and a painful expression appeared on his face.
Cruise is a little better…
Trenster was one of the “Gene Soldiers” under the villain Norman, and had a certain confrontation with Spider-Man in the early and middle stages, so he was arranged by the crew to train directly with the martial arts instructor Zhao Bo.
Zhao Bo’s training intensity is much higher than Cruise’s. Not only does he have to take a full hour and a half of horse steps every day, but when it reaches the point, he will be pulled over by Zhao Bo for a series of stretching exercises, and he has been beaten several times. I feel like I see God.
In the training room No. 1, Cruise cried out in a crash, and it didn’t take long before the door opened.
Like a conditioned reflex, Cruise stood up abruptly and continued to take the stance of Zamabu, but Zhao Bo did not look at Cruise, but walked in sternly, pointed to Trenster, and signaled Trenster followed suit.
“Mr. Zhao Bo, my legs are numb, I can’t walk…”
Trenster turned pale in shock and subconsciously pointed to his legs.
However, Zhao Bo watched for a while, and after rubbing Terenster’s leg lightly, he then ignored Terenster’s objection, carried Terenster and walked out of the house.
Looking at Trenster’s panicked back, Cruise swallowed and his heart almost stopped.
An hour later, Cruise hurriedly ran up after watching Trenster stagger in, leaning against the wall like a dead dog.
“I’m staying here, it’s like I’m in hell, I can’t breathe, and now it hurts to take a breath.”
Trendster wanted to cry without tears after seeing Cruise.
Before Trenster could say a word, the door opened again…
They saw that Zhao Bo still walked in coldly, and then took a meridian running chart.
“Today I will teach you to recognize meridians…”
Looking at the complicated meridian diagram, both Cruise and Trenster were stunned.
………………
“The cost of “The Bottom of the Mine” is about $50 million, of which about $40 million is for special effects.”
“Of course, the budget is not the final investment, and the final investment depends on the market situation, with an error of about 10 million US dollars.”
“…”
In the office of the “Spider-Man” crew.
Zheng Jun knocked on the door of Zhou Yang’s office with the final budget of “The Bottom of the Mine”, and excitedly told Zhou Yang about some of the movies of “The Bottom of the Mine”.
Zhou Yang watched it for a long time after he took over the budget. Although he knew in his heart that the film would cost a lot, no one could have imagined that the film would cost so much.
However, on second thought, the investment in “The Bottom of the Mine” or “Adventure in the Center of the Earth” has not exceeded 100 million. Although it is a big production, this kind of investment is quite common in places like Hollywood.
He finally approved the “Mine Bottom” project.
After getting the approval, Zheng Jun turned around and left without saying a word, without any sloppy intentions.
Zhou Yang looked at Zheng Jun’s back and wondered if it was an illusion. He felt that Zheng Jun seemed to be reborn overnight.
Whether he is speaking or doing things, his whole person is like a sword, with a sharp edge.
After Zheng Jun left, Zhou Yang looked down at the list of heroines in “Spider-Man”, looking at the empty list with a bit of contemplation on his face.
Then, he opened the actor introduction of “American Gangster History” and set his eyes on Belinda.
Belinda is one of the heroines of “American Gangster History”. She was an ordinary Hollywood third-tier actress before, and was later recruited by Zheng Jun to the “American Gangster History” crew.
Although there are not many scenes, it is particularly eye-catching, especially the innocent appearance of dancing on the screen, which made Zhou Yang feel that this is an angel falling into the world.
He searched Belinda on the Internet and found that since “American Gangster History”, Belinda has exploded in Hollywood rapidly. In less than a week, all major social media are talking about this girl, They all regard her as a new generation of dream goddess, and some people even associate Belinda with the once stunning Charlotte Celie.
Zhou Yang found Belinda’s contact information and got through Belinda’s phone.
“Hey…”
“Hello, is that Ms. Belinda?”
“Hello, are you Mr. Zhou Yang?”
“Yes, hello, Ms. Belinda, I’m glad to call you. I’m preparing a movie here and I need a heroine. I wonder if you’d like to audition?”
“Is it Spider-Man?”
“Yes.”
“I am willing to!”
“Oh well…”
Zhou Yang reported the location of his crew to Belinda, and then hung up.
In fact, the heroine of “Spider-Man” should have been determined long ago.
But the current situation of “Spider-Man” is very embarrassing. Either the heroine’s salary is too high, or when they hear the word “Spider-Man”, everyone retreats, or it is difficult to negotiate and prepare to sign a contract. At that time, the actresses were temporarily busy. After finishing their work, those actresses inexplicably claimed that they had picked up a new movie. After this, the time was delayed.
Half an hour later, there was a knock on the door of the office.
Zhou Yang watched Belinda, who was wearing a long dress and a tall figure, walked over accompanied by a chubby fashionable middle-aged woman.
The fat woman’s name is Kardashian, Belinda’s mother. When “American Gangster History” was recruiting the heroine, the middle-aged woman saw the news. At first, she planned to try her luck, so she brought her daughter here. , but no one expected to be selected by the crew at a glance, let alone become an instant hit…
After Zhou Yang greeted the two of them, he found Belinda sitting timidly next to her mother, her eyes were a little red, as if she had just cried.
“Hello, Mr. Zhou Yang, I would like to know what kind of movie “Spider-Man” is…”
“As the outside world says, it’s a superhero movie.”
“Oh, Mr. Zhou Yang, I’ll be honest with you, I’m not optimistic about the movie “Spider-Man”, I’m a mother, and I have to be responsible for Belinda…”
“Well, so what?”
“Belinda likes this movie, although I don’t like this movie, but I respect her choice, but as a mother, I think Belinda will be a certain risk to participate in such a movie, after all, she is now Her career is on the rise, and her future will be bright, brighter than you can imagine…”
“…”
Zhou Yang listened to Kardashian talking about the various benefits of Belinda, and frowned more and more: “Ms Kardashian, what do you mean?”
“I just checked the salaries of Hollywood actors, and I think Belinda needs ten million dollars to be in this movie…”
“???”
Zhou Yang was stunned.
During this period of time, he has been talked out loud by people, but he did not expect that the actors in his company would talk out loud to him.
How much did Belinda get paid for the role of “American Gangster History”?
$50,000!
Just finished performing “American Gangster History”, and just a little bit of fire, and suddenly told himself that he wanted 10 million US dollars at the box office.
This…
“The reason why “American Gangster History” is popular is because of the participation of Miss Belinda. For the sake of art, we Miss Belinda have made huge sacrifices… As you can see, a boring movie is completely We, Miss Belinda, are holding up…”
When Kardashian finished speaking triumphantly, the office suddenly became silent.
Zhou Yang didn’t know how to respond for a while, just watched Belinda pull Kardashian with a pleading look, but was pulled away by Kardashian.
Immediately afterwards, Kardashian continued to look at Zhou Yang: “In fact, Director Delson of Paramount invited us, Miss Belinda, to participate in his new movie “Alteration”, and the remuneration was also 10 million US dollars… This is a A blockbuster with a production cost of hundreds of millions of dollars, we really can’t refuse…”
“Ten million dollars…Delson?” Zhou Yang looked at Kardashian’s sworn look, and then narrowed his eyes after hesitating for a while: “We can’t offer such a price…”
“I’m sorry, we can’t participate in “Spider-Man”…” When Kardashian saw Zhou Yang’s expression, she stood up for the first time. After leaving this sentence, she forced Belinda to leave. office.
The office became silent.
Zhou Yang closed his eyes and felt that the world was too magical for a while, and at the same time he was a little puzzled.
As soon as Belinda became popular, someone asked for 10 million?
And in dollars!
This is too exaggerated, right?
Is Qiante brought by the strong wind?
After half an hour, Zhou Yang left the office, and after inspecting the crew, he saw Xu Mei approaching worriedly.
“The cooperation of several theater chains in “The History of American Gangsters” is all yellow. Obviously yesterday, the theater chains expressed great interest, but today, all of them said that they would not cooperate with us for the time being…”
