I'm not just an action star

Wu Long is busy filming "Interstellar" and "True Lies" is currently in theaters.

"Spiritual Shadows 2" has finally ended its global screenings, and the final global box office is locked at more than 100 million US dollars.

The film cost $300 million to make, and the original grossed $700 million worldwide.Wu Long was also amazed that this world could set a global box office of [-] million US dollars.

Compared with the first film in this world, this box office is 6000 million dollars less than the first film.Although there is no escape from the law that the sequel is not as good as the first one, the global box office of [-] million US dollars still shocked everyone in the film industry.

This is the second part, not the first.

In fact, even if "Spiritual Shadows 2" can exceed the global box office of [-] million US dollars, it is enough to disdain many horror films.

With a production cost of US$300 million and a global box office of US$66 million, the return on investment is [-]!

Judging from the box office alone, this movie is another masterpiece of horror movies!

With a total global box office of US$[-] million, it not only kills many horror movies in seconds, but also kills many action movies in seconds.

There are many action movies with tens of millions of dollars, and the total global box office is only more than 1 million.

For example, the original version of "Fast and Furious 3" by Wu Long in his previous life had a production cost of more than 500 million US dollars, and the total global box office was only more than 800 million. It hit the street!

If Wu Long shoots according to the original version, he will still hit the street.

Of course, Wu Long is busy filming "Interstellar" now, so he hasn't imagined how to change "Fast and Furious 3" yet.

Fans cheered Wen Zhiren and Werner online as their "Strange Shadows 2" hit the box office.It is also used by those who black Wulong and spray Wulong to spray Wulong.

It is said that apart from risking his life, Wu Long has no skills to speak of.Not only risking his own life, but also the life of the car stunt captain, and the life of the actress.It's shameless to risk other people's lives for the sake of your own movie box office!

If Wu Long has the ability, he will come up with a low-cost movie and defeat Wen Zhiren and Werner!

Wen Zhiren and Werner are the well-deserved kings of global horror films!

none of them!

Wu Long's "Midnight Bell" has become a submerged history, and Wu Long's fans don't have to show it anymore.

Wen Zhiren and Werner took out a movie at random, and the one that failed was not counted, and any one of them would crush "Midnight Ring".

The world's number one horror film is either "Insidious" or "Spiritual Shadows"!

Wen Zhiren was very angry when he saw people on the Internet blacking Wulong and spraying Wulong on "Spiritual Shadows 2".

"Look, they are using Brother Long's movie to spray Brother Long again! I really want to hold a press conference and announce the truth! Let those people see how ugly they are!"

Werner quickly persuaded Wen Zhiren.

"Don't do that, don't think like that."

"I know, don't worry. I'm just talking, I won't do that."

"However, if you always think that way, you may accidentally say it out one day, and it will ruin Brother Long's plan."

"That's right. Brother Long is too dazzling. If you let others know that even horror movies belong to Brother Long, the world will be jealous, and I'm afraid they won't be able to tolerate Brother Long."

"We'll announce it after Brother Long quits the film industry. At that time, Brother Long will become the eternal god of the film industry!" Werner clenched his fist and waved.

"Okay, let's continue to create a dark myth of horror movies for Brother Long!" Wen Zhiren also began to surge with enthusiasm. ""Spiritual: Ghost Story 3" starts shooting!"

"The production cost has increased again, which is 200 million dollars more than the second one. I think we should grasp the essence of this series again. Even if we can't reach the box office of the first one, we must strive to surpass the second one!" Werner Still somewhat ideal.

"Of course, don't I want to? I always want to surpass the last one. But, it's too difficult!"

"Didn't Brother Long give us these films to let us surpass ourselves under difficult conditions?"

"it is good!"

When Wen Zhiren and Werner were cheering each other on and started filming "Smart: Ghost Story 3", Huang Yiyu came to China and found Wu Long who was filming "Interstellar".

"Why do you come here when you have time?" Wu Long was a little surprised.Ordinarily, "True Lies" was a big hit at the box office, and as an assistant director, he should have a lot of film appointments.

After all, in "True Lies", Wu Long is the leading actor, and it is often troublesome to act as a director.There is a capable assistant director, which can be said to be of great help.

"True Lies" was successful, and many people in the industry saw Huang Yiyu's credit.In addition, Wu Long also publicly explained Huang Yiyu's ability.

"Brother Long, haven't you read those comments on the Internet?"

"I didn't pay much attention. Is there anything against me?" Wu Long thought about it for a while, and it seemed that there was nothing. "If there is, my PR department should remind me."

"The box office of "Spiritual Ghost Story 2" reached [-] million. Those people laughed at you on the Internet, saying that your horror film is outdated, and that "Midnight Ring" was trampled by the horror of Wen Zhiren and Werner."

When Huang Yiyu said this, he was obviously very angry.Wu Long saw that Huang Yi was really thinking of him and was angry for him.

But, you don't know, Wen Zhiren and Werner are also my people, and "Spirit: Ghost Story 2" is also my script.All of their movies, except for the one that failed, I wrote.

Wu Long smiled.

"It doesn't matter, I can't say that I have occupied all the movie themes. There are so many geniuses in this world, and there is always someone better than me."

"But, can you write a low-budget horror movie script, and I'll shoot it. I'll beat them up for you and make them shut up. I have filmed your "Death Comes" series, and I have a deep understanding of horror movies. Feeling and experience, I believe I can shoot well."

Huang Yiyu explained his purpose.

"You? You're here to shoot?" Wu Long said strangely: "But, "True Lies" is a hit at the box office, and you have contributed a lot. There should be many people asking you to make a movie. I was thinking that you should take over the filming." What about the movie, why haven't there been any?"

"I'm thinking back to the days when I made movies with you, relearning and thinking about your methods, your style, your ideas and techniques. I want to inhale them and form my own way. Just like Scott Like the director, he also did not immediately take over the film after finishing the "Lord of the Rings" series, and he had to fully comprehend what he had learned."

Seeing Wu Long thinking, Huang Yiyu explained again.

"Brother Long, I don't want to covet you for writing the script, but I just don't want to see you being hacked and sprayed. This will damage your reputation and affect your fans."

Wu Long smiled, no matter what, Huang Yiyu is willing to shoot, let him try.

"Okay, you can travel in our land of China for a few days, at the earliest a week, or ten days later, I will write a script for you."

"Thank you Brother Long!"

Wu Long didn't let Huang Yiyu stay in the crew of "Interstellar", Huang Yiyu left very tactfully.According to Wu Long, travel in the land of China.

A week later, he received a call from Wu Long and got a horror movie script "Escape from Deadly Town".The estimated production cost is $500 million.

"Brother Long, can I not announce that you wrote the script, and you use a pen name?"

"Why?" Wu Long was surprised again, feeling that Huang Yiyu's behavior this time was a bit abnormal.

"If you use your name and beat Wen Zhiren and Werner at the box office, those people will say that this movie is just your credit. Otherwise, if you change people, this movie will definitely not be as good as Wen Zhiren and Werner."

Wu Long was thinking.

"Actually, I'm also a little cautious. I want to see if my director ability can compare with Wen Zhiren and Warna without your halo."

Is this the original thought?Or, you have actually seen the development path of Wen Zhiren and Werner, and you want to learn from them.

To be an independent director, not relying on the film company, to be able to negotiate terms with the film company if you want to achieve results.

Wu Long nodded.

"can."

"Thank you Brother Long."

Huang Yiyu returned to Haolaihu with the script of "Escape from Deadly Town", and first found his old company, Lion Films.

"Young black guy in love with a white girl?"

"Then when I went to the girl's house for the weekend, something happened?"

"Is this an attempt to use unspeakable issues to create hot spots?"

"Although your horror film is a small production, with an investment of only 500 million US dollars. But you should know that the company and Weiner Pictures jointly produced "The Hobbit", and the production cost of each film exceeded [-] million US dollars. .In addition to "The Hobbit", the company has other films to shoot. I'm afraid you will have to wait for this film."

Waiting for a while means, in fact, it is very likely that you will not invest in shooting.Maybe after filming "The Hobbit" and getting back the investment after it is released, I will consider casting for him.But in the near future, it is definitely not possible.

The problem is that Huang Yiyu wants to shoot it as soon as possible, and compete with Wen Zhiren and Werner's "Spirit: Ghost Story 3".

"Then if I find another film company to cooperate with, or raise money to shoot by myself, will the company have any objection?"

"Of course, you are free, and you have not signed with Lion Films."

This is true.Over the years he signed with Lion Films, he filmed the American version of "Midnight Ring" and "Death Comes" series, and then acted as the assistant director of "True Lies" for Wu Long. Now that the contract expires, he happens to be free.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be tempted, and planned to be independent like Xuewen Zhiren and Werner.

Although he will not renew his contract with Lion Films, but as his first independent film, he should still say hello to Lion Films, lest he be said to be ungrateful.

Now, Lion Pictures doesn't invest by itself, so he can't be blamed.

This is also the reason why he asked Wu Long to agree not to sign Wu Long's name.If it was a script signed by Wu Long, no matter what, Lion Pictures would raise money to invest in the film.

Don't look at Huang Yiyu's success in the "Death is Coming" series, but he didn't make much money himself.What he got was the director's salary, and it was the salary of a new director, so the money was pitifully small.

Besides, he is indeed a newcomer, and basically anyone can shoot a script written by Wu Long, so he is not qualified to negotiate conditions.

If you don't have money, go raise money.He thought of two people, and they were both related to Wu Long.

Rocky!

The two know each other.Rocky also made movies, and knew that Huang Yiyu was the assistant director for Wu Long when he made the "Death Comes" series and "True Lies".

"Hey, why are you here when you have time?" Rocky was curious about Huang Yiyu's arrival. "You probably don't have time to come. Lots and lots of film offers are coming to you. You should be busy choosing films and beautiful actors."

Rocky winked at Huang Yiyu.

Unspoken rules, everyone understands.

Huang Yiyu didn't have the qualifications before, even if the "Death is Coming" series is good, he didn't have the qualifications either.

Of course, for those actresses who are not considered third-tier, Huang Yiyu can still recruit them for sex.

Now that "True Lies" is popular, Huang Yiyu's worth has risen, even if he is a third-tier female star, Huang Yiyu is also eligible to be selected.

"I have a script here. It's a horror film. It's very good. I want to make it myself, but I have no money. Among my friends, you are the richest. So, are you interested?"

Huang Yiyu directly stated his purpose.He wanted to raise money in a hurry and didn't want to be too wordy.

"You are so straightforward. Have you got the script, how much do you plan to ask for?"

Huang Yiyu took out the script and gave it to Rocky.

"You read the script first, and if it's suitable, we'll talk about the money. You've made movies before, so let's see what your vision is and if you've learned anything from Brother Long."

Rocky opened the script.

"I learned a little bit of fighting from Brother Long, and now I am the UFC champion. Movies, I admit that I don't have much talent."

"A love story between a black boy and a white girl?" Rocky muttered as he watched.

After reading it, he returned the script to Huang Yiyu.

"Honestly, I'm not interested in horror movies. Nothing scares me but bullets." Rocky raised his fist.

"Look at my fist."

Huang Yiyu accepted the script disappointedly.I thought to myself, if I tell you that this is a script written by Brother Long, you will definitely spend all the money.Of course, you don't need all your money, and your fortune is more than $500 million. For $500 million, horror is just a trifle to you.

Rocky patted Huang Yiyu on the shoulder.

"However, Long Ge is optimistic about you and can let you be the assistant director of "True Lies", which shows that you are a capable director. I don't know how to read people, I don't know how to read scripts, and I don't know the movie market. I understand, Brother Long's eyesight can't be wrong."

"Tell me, how much do you want to invest?"

Huang Yiyu was delighted.

"The production cost is $500 million. If you think it's too much, you can make an appointment with Chiba, I think he will be interested in this film."

"Him? He's in his home country, so there's no need to be so troublesome. It's only $500 million, and I voted. But, I need to send someone to monitor your use of funds."

"That's a matter of course." Huang Yiyu said happily.

Rocky is very rich. He is not only the champion of UFC, but also the champion of heavyweight boxing, with gold belts spanning two worlds.

Whether it's ufc or boxing, the top champions can earn a lot of money.

500 million dollars is nothing to Rocky.Only one sports brand person endorses, with an after-tax income of 500 million US dollars a year.Every year, his endorsement fees and sponsorship fees are at least 600 million US dollars.

The income of a game can be more than 3000 million US dollars on the surface.

It can be said that he is a man who counts money in the ring. "I have a small request. I can't reveal that you invested in this film for the time being, can you?"

"Why?" Rocky was worried that Huang Yiyu wanted to hack his money. "If you want to play tricks, I advise you not to. I know many people who can make people disappear from this world without anyone knowing."

Rocky stared at Huang Yiyu.

Huang Yiyu was not afraid, and looked back at Rocky normally.

"Because you have a close relationship with Brother Long. If people know that you invested, they will think of Brother Long. I just want to prove myself, and I don't want others to say that my success is because of Brother Long."

Rocky thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

"Yes, you are very ambitious. My success is all because of Brother Long. Although this is a reality, people always tell me that it makes me feel uncomfortable. I wish you success!"

"We succeed together!"
