Chapter 386 The Overlord Contract
After Ding Cheng saw the renderings, he was indeed gorgeous and shocking. Since the other party got straight to the point, he also said bluntly: "Compared with the eye-shattering visual spectacle, I actually care more about the story and the charm of the characters."

"In my opinion, superhero movies should inspire audiences and inspire people to do the right thing, right?"

Wen Ziren was stunned, looked at Ding Cheng's serious expression, and suddenly laughed and said: "You're right!"

"I definitely think that this time Aquaman is not a superhero movie in the traditional sense, but more like a classic adventure fantasy story!"

"I have to present this character in a very powerful and cool way. Of course, apart from the special effects, all the leading actors have to undergo arduous physical and stunt training, especially the male lead, who must give the audience a strong and mighty image as soon as he appears on the stage. "

Speaking of this, Ding Cheng couldn't help asking: "Do you think my image will be good?"

James Wan understood Ding Cheng's concerns and said with a serious face: "Arthur is originally a half-blood prince. After all, it is a superhero movie setting, and the concept of ethnicity is very vague."

"With various special effects and make-up, your face will be portrayed and interpreted again. Instead, what attracts the audience most is the strong and perfect muscles and the martial arts like a god of war."

Ding Cheng pouted, you still have to sell meat!
The plot is very simple. In addition to myself, there are many big names joining in, such as Nicole Kidman who plays the queen of Atlantis, who knows and falls in love with human beings, and jointly gave birth to the crystallization of love, Arthur, the king of the sea.

In the process of growing up, he received the rigorous training of Vico, the mentor played by Willem Dafoe, and always longed to visit his mother, but as an illegitimate child of mixed blood, this is a luxury.

At the same time, the half-brother Orm became the king of Atlantis. He was dissatisfied with the poisoning and pollution of the sea by humans on land, so he planned to unite with other underwater kingdoms to launch an all-out war on land.

In order to stop his ambition, Vico and Orm's fiancée Mera took Arthur to the underwater world.

Fate pushed Arthur to find the long-lost trident and build a more enlightened underwater kingdom.

I studied this character before coming here, and it first appeared in the 1941rd issue of "Duoqu Manga" in 73.At first, he was only the son of mankind, named Aquaman, who lived in the temple of Atlantis sunk under the sea, and gained superhuman strength and underwater breathing and other superpowers through training and scientific experiments.

Later, this version of Neptune was assigned to Earth Two, and was wiped out in the Infinite Earth Crisis event. To put it bluntly, it was a small character who played soy sauce.

To say that DC has been overwhelmed by Marvel in the past few years, Superman and Batman have been beaten by Iron Man and Captain America in various ways, and they have even created a successful Marvel universe. Any small character can make a big impact at the box office all over the world. .

As Big Brother's DC,

How can it be!

Ding Cheng looked at the image designed by Wen Ziren, with long brown hair, muscular body and dense tattoos, not so much referring to the appearance in the comics, and finally understood why he said that just now...

Isn't this Xu Jinjiang!
Ding Cheng knew the truth. To be honest, as long as it is not a skin problem, it is not a big problem if he controls the facial muscles a little bit, makes the lines more three-dimensional and wild, and adds special effects makeup.

Finally nodded and said: "I want to challenge!"

"Okay!" Wen Ziren's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, and he said excitedly: "Sign the contract immediately, and start training as soon as possible."

Seeing the director's bloody state, Ding Cheng was secretly amused. This chat completely subverted the impression of the master of horror.

It seems that in every school there will be such a boy, a thin-skinned monkey, who usually messes around in class, can get in the top few exams without studying books, is neither tall nor handsome, but can always meet beautiful senior girls in senior grades, even the teacher They all punished him to stand on the one hand, and favored him on the other.

With a smart body, this Warner is the most talented director of horror movies with a small and big picture. His thin body is dangling in the t-shirt jeans, and he leans back and forth like a teenage boy when he laughs. The information is complete and effective, and it is as careful as a hair.

"Your muscles are amazing!"

Watching Ding Cheng take off his shirt, Wen Ziren was even more shocked: "This is the most beautiful body I have ever seen, bar none!"

Ding Cheng smiled and said nothing, I am tortured by the system every day, can you be awesome?
"Don't think about the most difficult fitness, the following is surfing and diving, you..."

Ding Cheng waved his hand, and said to himself, "I have a professional license for diving, and I'm okay with surfing. It's not a big problem to make a surprise attack."

Wen Ziren gave a thumbs up, professional!
No wonder this guy is able to sweep across Southeast Asia. At first, I just liked his beautiful muscles and athletic cells, coupled with his strong box office appeal. Anyway, it is a hero setting, and race is not a big problem.

Now even the schedule can be advanced a lot, and the cost saved can be used to make more special effects shots, simply!

Back at the hotel, Su Yao looked at the tens of pages of contract templates and exclaimed, "It's Hollywood!"

Ding Cheng watched several of the company's legal advisers start to get busy. Fortunately, he had prepared for it. The salary for this film was US$600 million without any overseas share. Of course, he could make some small requests.

Converted into RMB, it is almost 4000 million, far exceeding the domestic quotation, but there is still a big gap for the 2000 million club of Hollywood's first-line superstars.

After all, I haven't proven my strength in this land. The reason why Warner is willing to pay 600 million is because of its past record.

According to Hollywood, the quotation of an actor means the basic consumption amount required to invite online talents, the so-called film creative workers, to the scene.

Offline workers, that is, crew members and those engaged in technical work such as hair stylists, makeup artists and special effects artists, are paid on an hourly basis.

Of course, no matter how high the quotation is, for brokers, they are constantly trying to increase this number without end.

Every time you open a bid and strive for more benefits in each successful transaction, and these benefits will also become the basis for the price of the next transaction.

This is how Hollywood agents survive. They take 10% of the income of their own actors. The bigger the agent, the greater the power. In many cases, the director can only see the star on the set, and the rest must be negotiated with the agent.

Getting to where we are today is not a one-off process, and early screen artists were almost free.During Hollywood's so-called golden age, from the 20s to the early 20s, every studio built a star system that nurtured and exploited actors by signing them to long-term contracts and paying them a base salary.

Film industry giants regard contracted actors as private property, and the dream lover of countless men, Marilyn Monroe, earns only 1.8 US dollars in "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", because the weekly salary of the signed contract is 1500 US dollars.

Instead, another actress, Jane Russell, earned $10 for the film because she was a freelance actress. Do you think it's funny?
Has the company become a vulnerable group?
