It's been a while since I last attended "Atlantis" directed by James Cameron.

In Suri's view, this movie, with a slightly cliché plot, has earned more than 2.3 billion US dollars in global box office in the two months since its release thanks to its technological special effects and the box office appeal of many well-known actors.

All we can say about this is that James Cameron deserves to be the great director who shot "Titanic".

His performance was as stable as ever, and even the chain reaction caused by Suri did not have much impact on him.

After attending the premiere ceremony at that time, Suri guessed that the box office would not be too bad, but she did not expect that it would be so good. The investors would make at least US$800 million.

Previous life experiences.

It is expected that there will be another wave of following the trend of shooting 3D blockbusters, which will push up the price of movie tickets, and then a lot of bad movies will emerge, and then gradually subside.

Suri has no intention of following the trend. Although it is difficult to replicate James Cameron's box office miracle, if he makes a few more movies through Big Orange Film Company, the profits will also be considerable.

For example, "Little Wish" was a new film that he didn't dare to have high expectations for.

After its first week of release, it actually earned US$95 million at the North American box office, and its global box office total exceeded US$134 million.

According to predictions from professional organizations, the final total box office is likely to exceed 270 million, and the net profit is likely to exceed US$90 million by then.

This is because it was not released in China in time, so the review process was delayed a little longer.

Starting this week, "Little Wish" will be available in major theaters in China, and it should be able to earn an additional 20 to 30 million US dollars at the overseas box office.

Judging from the profit margin alone, it can even beat the hugely expensive "Atlantis Project", once again achieving the goal of using small to achieve greater results.

Yuko Hoshino, who guest-starred in this drama, gained a large number of fans with her pure role as a vase. The well-known magazine "Playboy" specially invited her to take a sexy cover photo of a nurse.

As for Suri.

Everyone knows that he is extremely rich. Recently, Columbia Pictures took the initiative to send someone to contact him and proposed to make a superhero movie together. It has already bought the adaptation rights of "The Green Hornet".

The Green Hornet first appeared in 1936, and the famous Bruce Lee filmed a TV series of the same name.

It is probably because of this incident that Sony Pictures Entertainment, the company behind Columbia Pictures, thought of asking Suri to cooperate.

It also shows that other potential investors may not be optimistic about this mediocre and featureless "superhero" movie, and Suri certainly doesn't want to be taken advantage of.

July 11th.

When Suri talked about co-production with her friend Ashton Kutcher, Ashton immediately shook his head and reminded:

"Fortunately, you didn't agree. Everyone knows that accountants in Hollywood are best at turning profitable movies into money-losers in the eyes of others through accounting. Even if you make money by then, it will be difficult for you to get what you deserve. I know many investors and actors have been cheated by this kind of thing."

After working in Hollywood for so long, how could Suri not understand what he meant.

For the sake of tax avoidance, Daju Film Company and Netflix Entertainment are also doing crazy accounting, achieving tax avoidance in a reasonable way, and saving a lot of unnecessary tax expenses.

Suri drank a cocktail and smoked a cigar and said to Ashton:

"I'm not afraid that they will trick me. Of course I will try to avoid them before investing. The reason why I didn't agree to the joint venture is entirely because the script is unattractive. If they made a movie about Godzilla vs. Rampage, maybe I would have agreed. Pay for it."

"It sounds interesting, just like "King Kong". Audiences like to appreciate huge monsters on the screen."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ashton suddenly thought of something, and then added:

"Universal Pictures seems to be preparing to restart the "Jurassic Park" series and reshoot a spin-off series. A well-informed friend mentioned it at the party, but I don't know if it is true. Since Disney acquired Marvel Studios , which has put a lot of pressure on other film companies, and regular low-budget movies are no longer popular."

Thinking of the box office results of "Little Wish", Suri shook his head and said:

"Just like someone who occasionally eats French meals but often craves fried chicken and hamburgers, as long as the work is outstanding enough, there is also a market for small-budget films."

I have seen the spin-off movie "Jurassic World" of "Jurassic Park" before, and it stars "Star-Lord" actor Chris Pratt.

The rumors about restarting the dinosaur project should not be groundless.

Suri usually doesn't pay much attention to the latest news in the film and television industry, and just wants to be comfortable and make his own movies.

Recently, he is also busy letting people write the script of "The Wandering Earth", which abandons the traditional American individual heroism from the beginning and increases the influence of the alliance of various countries.

The plot is almost the same as before, but a white actor has to be arranged to play the male lead. Unless Suri plays it himself, it can avoid the difficulty of winning the international market due to insufficient box office appeal.

Although she only made a guest appearance in the TV series "The Walking Dead", Suri is quite confident in her acting skills. Otherwise, she would have been exposed in front of Daddario and the others all day long, and she would not be able to continue to perform like this.

Ashton changed the topic and said again: "Actually, I am looking for you today to ask for your help. I am going to find a suitable time to propose to Britney."

Ashton and Britney Spears have been in a public relationship for a long time. In the United States, where flash marriages are common, they are considered relatively conservative.

As far as Suri knew, just three or four months ago, the two of them even almost had a baby.

Unfortunately, because she didn't know she was pregnant, Britney drank and took drugs in the early stages, and ultimately failed to save her unborn baby.

After listening.

Su Rui was slightly surprised and asked blankly:

"You are proposing, what can I do for you? You can't ask me to propose on your behalf. This is inappropriate and violates the "Brotherhood Law"."

".What is the "Brother's Law"?"

"An idea for a new Netflix drama that hasn't started filming yet. It's called How I Met Your Mother."

Without paying attention to these details, Ashton continued:

"I plan to create a grand proposal scene, and Britney likes your song very much. When the time comes, I would like to ask you to sing "That Girl" at the scene."

"Huh? My singing is very expensive, what price are you prepared to pay?" Suri asked jokingly.

Ashton paused for a moment and hesitated:

"First of all, exclude checks. You definitely don't want money. I happen to have a collection of Marilyn Monroe's autographed photos. It's unique in the world. I can give it to you. It's worth about $30,000 on the market."

"???"

Su Rui said speechlessly:

"How horny am I in your mind? You are about to get engaged. Give me the photo quickly and I will destroy it for you, lest Bryony will be angry when she finds out." (End of Chapter)
