Chapter 954 Your future is a superstar

After dinner, Chen Ende happened to have finished cooking and came over to deliver a pot of tea. Seeing that there were still customers, he chatted with Yin Jun for a few words and left.

"Mr. Yin, I have heard of a rule." Stallone drank the tea that Yin Jun poured him and said with a smile: "Any gentleman who is well-educated and decent usually has a good relationship with a chef who is familiar with the restaurant."

"Is that true?" Yin Jun also smiled, "I don't know."

"Many giants in Hollywood have their own fixed locations in familiar restaurants, and those Michelin chefs are happy to give them special treatment to improve their restaurant style and grade. This is also an important means for them to become famous," Stallone said. "When I was not famous, I refused to go in a Spanish restaurant at the bottom of Beverly Hills, even if I worked hard to save enough money to have a meal."

Yin Jun has a slight jaw.

Stallone was also a poor child. His parents divorced since childhood, and he lived with his mother a little older.

Then I went to a "special re-education school" similar to China, which is the one that is full of naughty children and needs strict discipline, but there is definitely no such thing as electric shock treatment.

When he grew up, he studied drama performance at the University of Miami, but failed to graduate. Fortunately, his mother encouraged him to do what he liked, so he worked hard while writing scripts.

There were many failures and setbacks during this period, but Stallone did not give up.

Finally, six years later, he became famous all over the world through a movie called "Rocky" and achieved the success he had always dreamed of.

His experience is completely inspiring history, exactly the same as Schwarzenegger's.

In fact, in that era, whether in the East or the West, these stars had achieved success through hard work, so they knew how to cherish, so they were so prosperous for a long time.

Unlike those modern young and handsome actresses who suddenly became famous overnight, they didn't know their surname when they became famous, and then they were depressed when they encountered a little setback and finally disappeared without a trace.

This is the same, both in Europe, America and China.

Yin Jun likes such a down-to-earth star who knows to take his work seriously, and the kind of person who becomes popular with inexplicable popularity. He has always respected Bumin.

In my thoughts, Stallone continued to speak: "After my "Rocky" sold for $260 million, I went there again and put on my best suit. As a result, they invited me in respectfully when they saw me. I stood at the door and smiled, turned around and left... I still remember that I saw the face of the restaurant manager who had just been driven out in the car window... Haha..."

He was laughing, but his expression was still very stiff, and there was no smile in his tone.

On the contrary, Yin Jun also noticed a hint of sadness.

"So I was afraid of being poor and unlucky. After becoming famous, I was very cautious and never dared to be careless in everything." Stallone finally said the key point, "To be honest, in May this year, President Tang found me and wanted me to make "Rocky 3", I was really afraid that Lianyi movies would repeat the same mistakes again, because everyone knows that the difficulties faced this time are even greater, and the six giants are waiting there!

I have to be responsible for myself and for my film career, so I have been thinking for a little longer and have been thinking for a little more. But I didn’t expect that Lianyi could win such a beautiful battle, and the sturdy "Superman 2" will continue! I have also watched "Life and Death Speed" twice. Mr. Yin, you are really good at filming!"

As he said that, Stallone gave a thumbs up.

Regardless of whether he was flattering or not, Yin Jun smiled and said, "Do you still want to say that if you were the protagonist, you might be able to perform better?"

"No, no!" Stallone shook his hand, "Christian is very good, very clean and handsome, completely different from me. He acts well in this movie, and you choose better. I look forward to working with him in the future!"

Christian is Fei Xiang's English name. His full name is Christian Ronde Phillips. This is a serious American name, and even Fei Xiang is a American nationality.

Now that he has the cast of "The Speed ​​of Life and Death", everyone knows that he is originally American. He is naturally very close to the Chinese. Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why "The Speed ​​of Life and Death" exploded "Superman 2" from the second week.

"As long as you act in a kung fu movie, you will have a day of cooperation." Yin Jun nodded.

At this time, what he thought of was "The Expendables", this domineering and beautiful movie series is definitely a classic, and it has a big show of feelings, which makes the box office reputation full of popularity. It is also considered Stallone's greatest contribution in the late stage of his film career!

"I am here in Xiangjiang this time. First, I am going to ask Mr. Yin that we will continue to cooperate and let Lianyi Film Company continue to help me produce and release "Rocky 3". There is another request..." Stallone looked at Yin Jun intently and said sincerely, "Please write me a script! I look forward to taking it to the next level with your support!"

"There is no problem with "Rocky 3", and it is normal to climb up. But..." Yin Jun paused for a moment and looked back: "Mr. Stallone, why do I give you a book?"

"Yes, I know you are not short of money, and you don't need to rely on me to gain fame." Stallone said, "But I am also very sincere. I know that you and Arnold Schwarzenegger have signed a contract for 10 movies for 20 years. I am willing to sign a contract for 5 movies for 10 years with you. The conditions are not very good. As long as you let me act in a movie with great pleasure."

Stallone's words were carefully considered and polished on the plane when he came.

In fact, no one knows that one of the important reasons why Stallone rushed to Xiangjiang so quickly was that on July 31, after the release of the movie "Escape from Victory", which he starred in and directed, the box office was only 20 million in the first weekend and the second week, which hit Stallone a huge blow.

The cost of "Escape from Victory" is not high, about 10 million, and the cost of promotion and distribution is only 13 million.

According to the current box office, it should be able to reach a life-and-death line of about 40 million US dollars in at least 6 weeks.

And with the addition of well-known stars such as Pele, its box office overseas, especially in Europe and South America, will definitely not be bad, and it will make the film company earn 10 or 20 million yuan.

But is this enough?

He is Stallone!

He is a Hollywood upstart who has won more than 400 million US dollars with "Rocky 1" and "Rocky 2"!

I have to rely on football stars to make money in a movie. What does this mean?

I'm not convinced!

I won't be convinced no matter what!!

The reason why Stallone was dissatisfied was actually very simple, because he hit the gun.

I originally thought "The Speed ​​of Life and Death" and "Superman 2" had been on screen for three weeks, and there shouldn't be much momentum, so the schedule for July 31 is very good.

But I never expected that "Superman 2" would go completely, but "Life and Death" did not. In the fourth week, it still won about 20 million!

What is equivalent to?

It was equivalent to giving "Escape" a hard kick on "Escape" at the first weekend of "Escape" that was the best box office, making it only earn more than 14 million in the first weekend!

Otherwise, according to Stallone and the production company and the distribution company, it will be at least more than US$25 million in the first weekend!

The movies produced by Yin Jun can maintain a box office of about 20 million US dollars in the fourth week, which is really terrifying!

This is strength!

This is the strength that makes people convinced!

Look at the previous boastful "Superman 2". In the fourth week, it didn't even have 10 million yuan. It's more than half of "The Speed ​​of Life and Death". The total box office is almost impossible to see the tail of "The Speed ​​of Life and Death"!

It was precisely because he saw the power of the script created by Yin Jun, and when he remembered that the "e.t." which exploded in June this year was also Yin Jun's script, Stallone finally made up his mind to come and surrender.

What he mentioned in 10 years, his idea of ​​making a name for five movies was the same as what Maria said to Schwarzenegger. In 10 years, I have made more than 5 movies. As long as my fame comes, I will make a few more movies in the rest of my time, and I will come back with everything?

But then again, with Stallone's current star path and his status, the 5 movies in 10 years are definitely not considered cheating, but are very sincere.

However, Yin Jun was unmoved. After taking a few sips of tea, he said: "If you are a movie actor with great development potential, my principle is to have 10 movies in 20 years. This will not change at the moment."

Stallone smiled bitterly: "Mr. Yin, I am 35 years old! How many years can I have to fight at the age of 45 in 10 years?"

"A good actor won't care about age. The older he is, the more mellow it is like the old wine stored." Yin Jun said, "Mr. Stallone, I am very optimistic about you, so I invited you to talk today... If you think my conditions are too harsh, you might as well wait until the release of "Terminator" next year to see Mr. Schwarzenegger's achievements."

Stallone's eyes contracted: "You mean... can he become famous?"

"In my heart, in the next 20 years, you two will be representatives of tough guy movies in North America." Yin Jun said, "As long as you sign a contract with me, I promise that you will become a world-famous superstar like him!"

Yin Jun spoke in some order.

He put Schwarzenegger in front and Stallone in the back, but now Stallone is obviously much more famous than the bodybuilding champion.

However, Yin Junke was not wrong. Schwarzenegger was really ahead of Stallone in the future superstar sequence, not only because he had a good wife, but also because he was a favorite driver!

But Stallone didn't care, his thoughts were all in Yin Jun's words.

Superstar!?

He is really confident!

To be honest, Stallone has no need to worry about his life with "Rocky" as the foundation.

From now on, he would shoot a movie "Rocky" in two or three years, and film some other movies in between, which would be enough for him to live a comfortable life.

But if a person does not pursue his life, isn’t it the same as a salted fish?

Who doesn’t want to become the most famous superstar in the world and is loved by thousands of movie fans?

Stallone vaguely knew that he had encountered a bottleneck, and this time he came to Xiangjiang to see if there was any chance to open the bottleneck!

Now that the opportunity has come, he really hesitated in his heart.

10 movies in 20 years!

Yin Jun is trying to tie me to this boat in Lianyi Movie!

The question is, should I board this boat or not?!
Chapter completed!
