In Hollywood, there have always been some common rules.

For example, one of them is the "Three Laws" that we are all familiar with.

It means that a successful Hollywood person has the right to fail three movies.

If all three movies fail in succession, it means that he (she) is no longer suitable for Hollywood and has been eliminated, and people no longer have to care about his (her) or his (her) works.

The three laws can be used on actors, directors, and producers.

Many people’s understanding of Hollywood is actually somewhat confused with the understanding of Xiangjiang movies.

In the film industry in Xiangjiang, under normal circumstances, in a movie, the director is supreme authority. The so-called producers are usually named by the company boss, and the real power is still in the hands of the director.

Although there are also powerful producers like Xu Ke who can completely outline the director and just make the director look like an executor, this is a minority of the few after all and cannot be a common practice.

But it's different in Hollywood.

Hollywood has been a "producer responsibility system" from beginning to end.

The producers are not the producers of wireless TVB, they are just a little similar, but in fact the producers have greater power.

The producer is the general manager of a crew, and all the directors, screenwriters, cameramen and actors are under their jurisdiction.

There are such a group of producers in major film companies. They are responsible for finding various project scripts by themselves. After finding them, they apply for projects with the company, attract funds, find directors and actors, and start shooting and production.

In Hollywood, producers who do not belong to major companies also first develop an idea, and then they will find a few screenwriters to write their ideas into scripts.

Or the producer directly purchases the adaptation rights of some famous novels and asks them to find a screenwriter to adapt the script.

When the script is polished, the producer will take the script and go to major film companies to sell it, seeking cooperation.

A weaker producer will let the film company take the lead, and he will only be responsible for planning the crew and shooting details.

For stronger producers, they will not only dominate the entire movie, but also participate in investments themselves, which will also provide great convenience in the sharing of profits.

For example, the future Brookheimer is such a powerful gold medal producer.

There are also Aziva Gossman, who produced the big-time films such as "Superman", "I Am the Legend", "The Da Vinci Code", and "The Smiths", and David Heyman, who produced the seven-part Harry Potter plot and "Gravity", are all such gold medal producers.

Although they only have a small production company, they are all comparable to second-rate film companies in terms of power and profit acquisition, and they are very powerful.

Of course, nothing in the world can be unchanged.

If you are James Cameron, if you are Spielberg, if you are Michael Bay, if you are Christopher Nolan, if you are Tim Burton... Such a super-class director, then the producer or something is just a service to you. Once there is any dispute, the film company will definitely listen to you and can change the producer at any time.

So this also illustrates us a truth that has been eternal.

A blacksmith must be strong himself.

You don’t have the strength to be strong, and you won’t be that effective when you go!

Once you are a strong man in the industry, no matter whether you are a peer or a boss, you have to follow your words and do things.

Unfortunately, there are only a handful of top figures like this in every industry.

But many people think that they are such a person, so they cannot recognize themselves, and end up with a pitiful and ridiculous ending, which makes people sigh.

Brookheimer is definitely not a small person, nor is he the kind of person without vision.

In the entire Hollywood system, except for the later era of comic hero movies, Brookheimer's achievements are actually the highest among all gold medal producers.

He almost dominated the entire 1980s and 10s. Even after his age, his thinking and ideas were a little out of date. He still had a lot of super IPs, which was enough for him to support his old age. "Pirates of the Caribbean" is one of them!!

Yin Jun has never underestimated such a person, even though he is now unknown.

Therefore, Yin Jun also gave Brookheimer the most favorable conditions, and only signed a contract for five years and produced six movies.

The rest is gone.

Similarly, Brookheimer thought Yin Jun was harsh at first, but when he saw the contracts between Schwarzenegger, Stallone, Tom Hanks, Eddie Murphy, he immediately felt that Yin Jun was pretty good to him.

But at the same time, Brookheimer was also a little confused. Could it be that Yin Jun was not optimistic about his future, so he only signed a contract with him for so long?

With this in mind, this future gold medal producer came to Yin Jun’s office at Lianyi Film Company.

"sit!"

Yin Jun put down his pen at the table, "Jerry, I'm looking for you today for the new movie... Before that, I'll ask, are you ready?"

Talking to Americans is so convenient, it is simple and clear to go straight to the point.

Brookheimer was not uncomfortable and nodded, "I have watched the script of "Beverly Hills Police Detective 2" for a month, and I already know what to do. In addition, the production team is the original team, and we will finish filming in at most three months. In addition, post-production and promotion, there is no problem to catch up with this year's Christmas time."

The global box office of "Beverly Hills Police Detective" was US$200 million, reaching the top five in the total movie rankings last year. It is also the third highest box office work in North America. It is even better than the lose-lose "Speed ​​of Life and Death" and "Superman 2".

With such a great success, Brookheimer can say with confidence that he can go to the Christmas season to compete for a good ranking.

"Then you start planning. Eddie and Murphy will come to the United States this month to cooperate with the shooting," Yin Jun said.

"boss……"

Brookheimer hesitated and said, "Can you let Eddie Murphy stay in the United States in the future? After all, the United States is his base camp. Not only does he need him when filming, but he also needs him when promoting. Then he also needs to appear on some variety shows, etc. to consolidate his popularity. In addition, it is a waste for him to make a movie a year. We should let him make at least two movies a year, so as to increase his status in the hearts of the audience."

"Well, whether he stays in the United States or not, you can ask him about this matter." Yin Jun nodded in agreement, but said again: "I don't think it's appropriate to let him set two movies a year. The more you want him to become famous and make money from the movies he makes, the more you should cherish his identity and not let him become equated with bad movies.

My opinion is that if there is a suitable movie, he will act. If it is not suitable, he will go to the crew of some art films to train his acting skills. Anyway, he is still very young, so he doesn’t have to worry about delaying time or not making money now. He is just afraid that the foundation and talent he has are not enough to support his development in the next 20 or 30 years.”

Eddie Murphy is a typical example of his own good conditions but not enough in terms of background and continuous efforts.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had two ups and downs.

And he has a very fatal disadvantage, that is, he can only adapt to comedy movies. If he goes to film the main movie except for comedy movies, he will be very uncomfortable, and the audience will also be unacceptable.

This seems a bit embarrassing, so when Eddie and Murphy finally lacked good themes and the film market was not that huge, he gradually lagged behind and gradually withdrew from the stage of history.

The big black brother Morgan Ferriman is different. He can act in serious movies, but when he needs to slut, he can also slut, and his temperament is both good and evil, making people unable to ignore his performance in every movie.

Daniel Washington is also similar, so he is the most representative of black people with box office guarantees and strength.

Will Smith is also a little worse than this, but the era they encountered was a good one. When the movies were blooming and when Hollywood movies completely conquered global movie audiences, the role he played was well-known to many people, thus having a huge number of movie fans overseas, which gave Will Smith the capital to continuously obtain first-level resources and star in A-level productions.

Yin Jun's first actor to be trained in Hollywood in this life was Eddie Murphy. Moreover, Eddie Murphy knew the right way, and was grateful and didn't ask for it. He would do whatever he asked him to do.

If such a direct line is not cultivated, it will be a huge waste.

At the same time, setting Eddie Murphy as a typical example has many benefits for Yin Jun himself and the image of Qilin Group.

No matter how you say that Hollywood is a ruthless world of fame and fortune, people are also eager to get a little warmth. If there is such a relatively good boss, then it is obvious who the directors, producers, and celebrities will choose to cooperate with under the same conditions.

Even if Eddie and Murphy don’t have good works later, Yin Jun will give him a series of movies, such as "Halloween of the Crazy Woman", and let him learn from Teddy Perry. He will shoot one every two or three years, which is enough for him to earn more than ten years and earn enough money for retirement.

Besides, the boy also believed that Eddie Murphy, the most famous black comedy star in the 1980s, must have great potential to explore.

After 2010, which of the so-called newcomer stars has acting skills?

All of them are movies made by special effects. In fact, there is no big difference between which star appears. People don’t watch any stars, but special effects and gorgeous fighting scenes.

What is really supporting the game is the middle-aged stars in the 1990s and 2000s.

Eddie Murphy's acting skills are better than those young stars.

Listening to Yin Jun's words, Brookheimer envied Eddie Murphy.

It is such a blessing for a boss who values ​​him and wants to see him better than just using him to make money!

As his thoughts dissipated, Brookheimer nodded, "I understand, I will find an opportunity to let him try it."

By proving himself with "Beverly Hills Detective", Brookheimer has become a new producer. It cannot be said that many people please him, but he can expand his connections much larger, and for the sake of the Kirin Group, he can call a lot of resources.

This is the reason why you can enjoy the shade by leaning on a big tree.

It is not difficult to use these relationships to cultivate Eddie Murphy.
