Hollywood superstars: Start as a child star

“Spider-Man 4” is here

“Haha~ Well~ I was young and ignorant at the time!” Claire was embarrassed and explained with some embarrassment: “That’s what I thought this time, although in the third part, I will make less money. But if there is a third With four movies, I can make money back. The combined income of the three and four movies will definitely be more than the original third movie! This is called sustainable development!”

Of course, there is another point that Claire did not say: for those who currently have no worries about food and drink, For him, it is not limited to just staring at a certain project to make money and killing the goose to get the eggs. What he values more is the added influence behind the movie. Compared with the sudden end of the third part of “Spider-Man”, if it can continue to the fourth part, this continuation and addition of the actor’s influence will obviously be more beneficial.

“Well, Claire, your idea is a good one!” Roxy affirmed, “lowering the remuneration appropriately is also a goodwill gesture to the producer. Even if it cannot completely guarantee that the life of the series of movies can be continued, it is still a positive move. Your efforts!”

“Okay! Since you agree, I’m relieved!” Claire also breathed a sigh of relief, because the remuneration matter is not only related to himself, but also to Roxy’s commission. This decision of mine will reduce Roxy’s commission, and Roxy must know and agree to this.

…

“Claire! You…” Remy was a little excited. He heard Claire say that he was willing to cut his salary just to make the “Spider-Man” series live longer. I was even more moved inside!

As a hardcore Spider-Man fan, Remy is more interested in the continuation of the “Spider-Man” series of movies. That is the greatest satisfaction of being a fan. Seeing that Claire was willing to sacrifice her own interests to support the movie, Remy’s eyes turned red.

“But, Remy! Don’t have too high expectations. We don’t know whether their senior management’s decision will be firm or not.” Claire added, seeing that Remy, an old man, was so moved that he almost dropped his gold beans, and quickly took the vaccine.

“Well, I understand this! It’s just your intention, Claire, and I… Remy, I’ll remember it!” Remy stood up and gave Claire a breathless and heavy hug.

“Okay, okay~ Remy! I’m almost suffocated!” Claire struggled quickly!

“Hahahaha~” ”

…”

…

Claire and Remy went to Columbia Pictures headquarters the next day to negotiate with senior executives about the third script.

At first, studio executives and producer Avi Arad were not very happy with their idea of assigning the character of Venom to a fourth film. It can be seen that the top management of the film industry is indeed considering the idea of starting a new version of “The Amazing Spider-Man”.

However, Claire revealed that she agreed to lower the salary, cut off “Venom”, and also reduce the investment budget from 280 million US dollars to the budget level of over 200 million for the second part.

This money-saving plan made the senior officials hesitate, but they still did not agree immediately.

“Do you know about the back-to-back filming contract signed between the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series and Disney?” Seeing that she couldn’t get it, Claire was about to make her final move. If it really doesn’t work, then there’s really nothing you can do.

“Huh? Back-to-back?”

“Yes, the crew signed a back-to-back contract with Disney for the second and third films, so that there will be no worries when filming the third film.” Claire explained the rule.

In fact, after all, as a senior executive of the film industry, when making the sequel movie, these are the things that are both happy and worrying. On the one hand, the box office expectations of the sequel movie are guaranteed, and the film studio is more assured; on the other hand, the success of the previous movie has caused the net worth of many actors and directors to skyrocket, pushing up production costs.

Facing the rising box office, the producers are really feeling pain and happiness, and happiness is followed by huge pain.

…

After arduous and torturous negotiations, all parties finally reached a consensus on the shooting issues of the two movies “Spider-Man 3” and “Spider-Man 4”, which basically met the expectations of director Sam Raimi.

“Claire, it’s really thanks to you this time!” Sam Remy thanked him repeatedly.

“We are all for “Spider-Man”! It is everyone’s achievement, everyone’s treasure!” Claire waved her hand.

From the beginning, Claire hoped to change the regrets of the previous “Spider-Man” series and change the ending of the film through her own intervention. This time, he seems to have really done it! Even if you sacrifice some of your own financial interests, it is not worth mentioning. Moreover, in the final analysis, it is not certain whether one loses more or gains more in his own interests!

…

Claire suddenly remembered her own Twilight series! This is also a big IP no less important than the “Pirates of the Caribbean” series! I should take advantage of the fact that before this movie is released, I should gradually nip the hidden dangers of the sequel movie in the bud.

Although the current actor Robert Pattinson and the heroine Novella Murphy are just two unknown little actors, they are still full of kindness and gratitude to Claire herself.

However, Claire can’t pat her chest and guarantee that they can maintain their current innocence after the movie becomes a hit. Or, even if they still respect themselves, they can’t guarantee that their family members and partners will respect them as well.

Everything is an unknown!

…

“Roxy, where are you now? When you have free time, let’s discuss the filming of the follow-up movie of “Twilight”!” Claire thought about it and immediately called Roxy, preparing to find Roxy. Discuss this matter together.

“Huh? The development of the follow-up movie of “Twilight”? Claire, are you awake?” Roxy scolded, “You have been too ambitious recently! Reflect on it quickly. The movie has not been released yet, and the results have not been achieved yet.” Come on, you’re actually thinking about the development of the sequel?”

“Hey~ I’m planning ahead for a rainy day!” Claire knew that this was difficult to explain. The more he explained, the more Roxy thought he was an arrogant maniac. ..

“It’s not because of the inspiration and warning given to me by the two series of movies “Spider-Man” and “Pirates of the Caribbean”. It is really difficult for the sequel movie to maintain the original cast and production team. We need to focus on everything.” Before you even start, think of countermeasures and plug the loopholes!” Claire explained her sudden idea.

“em…” Roxy didn’t respond for a long time after hearing this, “Ahem~ What you said makes sense! Claire. Thinking ahead and thinking ahead is a good quality!”
