No matter past or present, Jackie Chan's influence is unquestionable, and the movies starring him are almost synonymous with blockbusters.

You don't even need to read any news reports, you can see his influence at that time just from the salary.

In the 1980s, "Food Truck", "Plan A", "Police Story" and many other works, the film salary has reached as high as 4.8 million Hong Kong dollars.

You know, Xu Guanjie's salary was only about 2 million Hong Kong dollars at that time.

In the early 1990s, with the big hits of "Flying Eagle Project", "City Hunter", "Crime Squad" and other films, the film salary rose directly to 20 million Hong Kong dollars, completing a qualitative leap.

When "Red Fan District" became a big hit in North America, the salary rose to 30 million Hong Kong dollars, a figure that the Hong Kong film industry could hardly believe.

(Jackie Chan’s highest-paid movie should be Disney’s “80 Days Around the World”. He only received a basic salary of 20 million U.S. dollars, and he is also the only Chinese actor who joined the 20 million U.S. dollar club.)

(Jeter-Lee has not starred in Hollywood's major A-list commercials and is not in the $20 million club.)

Right now, he has received three more "Rush Hour" film contracts, officially entering Hollywood.

This is not a supporting role, but a tailor-made plot completely in accordance with Jackie Chan's previous shooting style, and it is definitely the starring role of the film.

Even though the shooting of "Rush Hour" has not officially started, many news media in Hong Kong have begun to report that Jackie Chan is the second commercial actor in history to break into Hollywood after Bruce Lee.

Moreover, the most admirable thing is that as "Rush Hour" entered the preparatory filming stage, many Chinese actors in Hong Kong received audition invitations from the crew, which once again pushed Jackie Chan's status in the Chinese film industry to a new height .

Of course, it also brought a lot of heat to "Rush Hour", and attention from the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

As for going to the other side of the Pacific Ocean to do the premiere!

Ryan really has this plan. In his previous life, things like this have long been very common, such as "Pirates of the Caribbean 5: Dead Men Tell No Tales", "Iron Man 3" and other films, all had their premieres on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Even, it was several days earlier than the release time in North America, which is nothing new at all.

In addition, there is another important reason. Jackie Chan has a very wide influence in Southeast Asia, and Orion Films can take this opportunity to expand the Southeast Asian film market.

Although Southeast Asian countries have never been the main box office market for Hollywood, Southeast Asia currently has Japan, the second largest box office market in the world, and will have a box office market on the other side of the Pacific Ocean in the future.

Of course, the specific situation will have to wait until the filming is over.

After all, Orion Films does not have a global distribution channel, and the film's overseas distribution plan needs to be negotiated with overseas distribution companies in the future.

Chatted with Charlize - Theron for a while, until the end of lunch, the crew began to continue filming, Charlize - Theron returned to the RV to touch up makeup.

Although her muscle strain is still not healed, some literary dramas still need to be filmed. It is impossible for the crew to delay the filming progress because of her alone.

This can be regarded as the most basic conduct of an actor.

"Attention all departments."

"The photography team is ok."

"The actor is ok."

"Mr. and Mrs. Smith's thirty-fifth scene, first scene, start!"

Brad-Pitt changed a piece of clothes, looking very energetic, giving people a simple and capable feeling.

On the other side, several local extras from New Zealand walked into the hotel and chatted with each other in a low voice. The three cameras distributed around each took close-up shots.

"Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is a commercial film, and the acting skills of the actors are not very high.

Brad-Pitt did not find it difficult to shoot. He glanced at the lobby very naturally, and slowly stretched his right hand under the suit and put it on a pistol.

Almost at the same time, Charlize Theron, dressed in a very fashionable dress, stepped on a pair of high heels and walked in with slender legs.

According to the requirements of the script, Charlize Theron will be finely dressed every time she plays, even wearing a pair of high heels and short skirts to fight.

As for whether it conforms to reality, it is no longer within the scope of Ryan's consideration.

Ryan sat behind the monitor, watched the performances of several people, suddenly called a stop, and said to Brad-Pitt: "Who was too ordinary in the eyes just now, you are performing an important task, you must always Be vigilant."

"And Charlie, your expression just now seems to lack a trace of illusion, and you don't look surprised enough."

"Okay, take a break for a minute, and then do it again."

A minute passed quickly, and the crew started filming again, and this time there was no problem.

The biggest selling point of this film is not the acting skills, but the action scenes of handsome men and beautiful women, as well as various gun battles and explosion scenes.

Most of the intimate scenes in the original version were deleted by Ryan. "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is a commercial film, and it is not an adult film, so there is no need for a lot of sexual scenes.

Of course, kiss scenes are essential, whether it is Hollywood movies or Chinese movies, kiss scenes are a common scene.

"OK, pass this way, change to another shooting location." Ryan ordered the crew to change the scene.

There is no other way. Charlize Theron can't shoot action scenes for the time being, so she can only continue filming literary dramas.

Taking advantage of the time when the crew was transitioning, Ryan came to the RV outside, ready to revise the script.

Of course, this script has nothing to do with Mr. and Mrs. Smith, but a script that is going to be thrown to Orion Films to find someone to shoot.

Even the script itself was not written by Ryan, but from an editor by Adam Hertz, a script that Orion Pictures snatched from Universal Pictures for $1.5 million.

"Nobody Knows" is a very odd script title.

The first time he bought the script, Ryan directly rejected the name and changed it to "American Pie", the name of a food.

Of course, the real meaning is similar to the meaning of a party, and it also contains a hint of irony.

For this period of time, Ryan has been taking a little time almost every day to revise the script, so as to create a small-budget series of films.

The cost of shooting the original "American Pie" film was less than 10 million US dollars, but the North American box office has achieved 132 million US dollars, and the overseas box office has also exceeded 100 million US dollars, which is even more terrifying than the revenue of the "Chain Saw" series.

"American Pie!"

"An indescribable film."

Sofia Coppola glanced at the script in Ryan's hand, and her tone was somewhat weird.

When she saw the script for the first time, she even suspected that it was an adult film.

"To be precise, it's a script full of adolescent passion." Ryan put down the script in his hand, looked up at Sofia Coppola and asked, "Britney, did you agree?"

The content of "American Pie" tells about all kinds of indescribable things derived from a group of high school students on the eve of graduation.

Ryan's first thought when he saw the script was that Britney Spears and her famous song could be the opening song of "American Pie".

Immediately after buying the script, Ryan asked Britney Spears to sign with a newly established music studio under Orion Pictures.

In return for signing the contract, not only will she get the opportunity to sing the opening song of "American Pie", Orion Pictures will also spend a high price to buy the song "Baby One More Time" and she will sing it herself.

In the previous life, "Baby Come Again" was originally chosen to sing, not Britney Spears, but a female group, UU Kanshu www. uukanshu.com was just rejected by this female group, and it was Britney Spears' turn to sing.

Ultimately, Britney Spears shot to fame when she sang "Baby One More Time", which became one of the best-selling songs in the UK.

"There is no news yet." Sofia Coppola shook her head, "It's the song "Baby Come Again" you're looking for. The record company expressed willingness to sell the copyright, but the price is a little higher."

"Buy it." Ryan said without hesitation: "The price is not a problem."

If Britney Spears disagreed, it would be a big deal to change to another singer. Anyway, Ryan just wanted to use the popularity of this song to promote "American Pie", and he didn't really want to set up a record company.

Of course, it would be best to sign Britney Spears, but the benefits she can bring in the future may not be less than the "American Pie" series.
