Saving the world is not as good as chasing stars [US Entertainment]

As the Oscars came to an end and the awards season came to an end, Margo was ready to fly to Australia to join the crew of "The Matrix 2: Reloaded" for filming.

As a sci-fi movie, "The Matrix" achieved a global box office record of 46 billion for the first time, which is almost an unprecedented success.

When Margaret and Keanu Reeves took over the filming of the first film two years ago, the terms of the star contract were a basic film salary of 1000 million U.S. dollars, plus [-]% of the global box office dividends, as well as dividends from video discs and peripheral products.

It has to be said that Adjani and Reeves were able to successfully negotiate box office dividends that year, mainly because "The Matrix" was not favored in the early days, and was even rejected by several producers for filming. Warner Bros. Pictures obviously Unexpectedly, this sci-fi action movie would be so successful.

The popularity of "The Matrix" made the two leading actors earn more than 5000 million US dollars, becoming one of the actors who made a lot of money by virtue of the dividend contract after Tom Hanks made 7000 million with "Forrest Gump". one.

The success of the first part of "The Matrix" also made Margo's agent, Brian Lord, more confident when he discussed the sequel dividend contract with Warner Bros. Pictures.

Unlike Margot who no longer starred in the third film, Keanu Reeves has already taken over two sequels, signing with a base salary of 500 million each, plus 15.00% of the global box office dividend.

And Margaret, who only starred in "The Matrix 2: Reloaded" and no longer filmed the third sequel, gave up her 2000 million remuneration in exchange for increasing the global box office dividend to 20.00%.

Abandoning high film remuneration to take box office dividends is obviously a very risky behavior. Although there are examples of making a lot of money, in the past few years, there are also big-name actors who are not worth the loss.

If "The Matrix 2: Reloaded" can successfully maintain the previous box office level, then Keanu Reeves' salary and dividends are expected to exceed 6000 million US dollars.

And Adjani's 20.00% five-time global box office dividend will take away 500 million US dollars from Warner Bros. Pictures, which is a full 500 million more than the male lead. This is enough to hire another big-name movie star to play the role.

But in fact, even if the previous game is successful, who can guarantee that the sequel will not encounter Waterloo?

Even Tom Hanks dare not do the act of giving up the salary and completely changing to the dividend.

Even if most big-name movie stars are more optimistic about the popularity of their films, at most they will cut their salary in half in exchange for an extra 5.00% of the box office dividend.

For Margot, the base salary of 1000 million plus 20.00% box office dividend is the safest and most profitable way.

And 20.00% five box office dividends and zero pay for starring, I don't know whether to say whether Margaret is too confident in "The Matrix 2" or is dazzled by the benefits.

There are even many film colleagues who were already dissatisfied with Margaret, thinking that this young girl was overwhelmed by her smooth acting career, and she became more and more daring in her actions.

However, the producer, Warner Bros. Pictures, finally chose to sign this dividend contract with Adjani.

No way, in today's Hollywood, this young girl's money-making method really works——

If "The Matrix 2" can still successfully maintain the popularity of the previous film, the audience who entered the theater because of Adjani, obviously can easily create a box office revenue of more than 500 million US dollars.

And if there is an accident and the box office of "The Matrix 2" shrinks, it is obviously not just Warner Bros. Pictures that will lose the bottom line. Adjani will bear the brunt of the unlucky one.

The main shooting of "The Matrix 2" will be completed in Australia, and it can almost be called a huge project. When Margo boarded a private jet to Sydney, he brought several oil bottles with him.

Needless to say, there are three superhero bodyguards and double-faced agent nanny assistants, and this time there is even an extra mascara with big caramel-colored eyes.

Margaret raised her eyebrows, "Mr. Stark, you are going to Australia to attend an economic conference, I'm afraid you should take your own private jet."

Tony Stark looked at her disapprovingly, "You really don't know how to save energy. As an environmentalist, I have to teach you a good lesson."

Obviously, messing around has always been one of the things that insoles are best at.

Margot turned her head and ignored him, and looked at the big-breasted sweetheart, "You and Bucky will go to Sydney with me, won't it affect the work of the Avengers? Like saving the world or something."

Before the captain with gentle and upright eyes could speak, he was interrupted by Tony Stark, who said to Margot, "Why don't you worry that my absence will affect the operation of the Avengers? Don't I save the world? "

The fierce-looking Wolverine Logan spoke instead of Margo, "Probably because you are a lunatic."

As one of the most outstanding figures of this era, Tony Stark has multiple roles, scientist, billionaire, superhero, playboy, but obviously many media call him a self-centered lunatic.

Tony raised his eyebrows at the mutant, "That's better than a cruel, rough and out-of-group guy."

Mr. Stark has always been the best at provoking others. If his mouth cannon mode is fully activated, he may be able to irritate Logan so much that he will fall directly into the "Wrath of the Berserker".

In combat mode, Wolverine would rage like an aggressive beast, and no one on the plane could calm him down.

So Margo went directly to the angry mutant, changed the subject and said, "Logan, I heard that you worked with Captain and Bucky in Tunisia during World War II."

After the outbreak of World War II, Logan not only worked with the US team, but even joined the First Canadian Paratrooper Corps as an airborne soldier, and participated in the Normandy landing and the liberation of the Netherlands.

After Logan recovered his memory with the help of Professor X, he remembered the heavy past, but fortunately, after joining the X-Men, he gradually had reliable allies and friends.

Captain America and Bucky, who once made outstanding military exploits for the United States and the world in World War II, and Logan, who was a spy of the Allies and was imprisoned in the Sobibor death camp in Poland, met as early as World War II.

And the nature of these three men is equally strong, brave, witty, and full of justice, so they are very fond of talking about how they dealt with the German Nazis.

Grant Ward, a former Hydra member, was a little out of touch.

After all, the Hydra Legion once belonged to the German Nazis, although Baron Straker did not miss Hitler after his successful uprising within Hydra.

For example, under the pretext of researching military weapons, they took away the resources of the Nazi Party to grow Hydra, and kicked Nazi Germany away after successfully grabbing the resources.

It is estimated that Hitler, the head of the German Nazis, faced the former popular Baron Strucker, wishing to shoot him down—rebellion after robbing resources, is this a human being?

Also snubbed by the three super long standby old bodyguards was Mr. the richest man in the United States.

He has not been personally affected by the Hiroshima bomb, nor has he been to Tunisia. Besides putting on the Iron Man armor and joining the Avengers battle, Tony and other Avengers members are not very close.

Even though Stark Industries has turned to the development of new energy sources, and he has become a superhero to save the world, when many people mention Tony Stark, they still first think of him as a profit-seeking arms dealer.

In the eyes of more people, billionaire Tony Stark is a conceited and arrogant man who doesn't care about other people's feelings and is cynical and powerful.

Even though he always tries his best to protect his teammates and the world.

To some extent, Tony Stark is a man who has everything and has nothing.

When Margot returned to the original position, which was on Tony Stark's left, Mr. America's richest man looked at her sternly, "Miss Adjani, if you continue to ignore me, you will lose my pursuit of a billionaire." The latter is your end."

Adjani's exquisite facial features are so beautiful that people's heart speeds up, and she is looking at the mascara, "Mr. Stark, if you continue to make trouble for no reason, I will ask Jarvis to throw all your height increasing insoles into the trash can."

Tony, who was threatened maliciously, said stiffly, "What the hell are the height increasing insoles, I never need them, but you are really rude."

Margo raised her eyebrows and joked, "God, Tony Stark is saying that others are rude?"

"Don't you think I'm an arrogant guy too?" Tony frowned, looking at her intently with his big, beautiful caramel-colored eyes framed by long lashes, as if what Margo's next answer meant to him was extremely important.

Margaret stared at him, "You always act like a megalomaniac, you like to be the center of attention and enjoy the attention, but at the same time, you are one of the greatest geniuses and superheroes in the world, you alone People can maintain world peace, can’t they?”

The French beauty raised the corners of her lips, "Without you, the world would have been destroyed 47 times."

Tony Stark blinked, "If you're cheating on me now, and you're not going to keep cheating, I'll break up with you."

Margot was helpless, and looked at him indulgently, "Tony, you are not an egomaniac who just wants to attract attention, you are a childish god."

Tony Stark: How about she pampers me into a happy little idiot sooner or later?
