On December 24th, Christmas Eve, it was another year for family reunion. It seemed that the pace of the whole world was involuntarily slowed down, enjoying this rare relaxing holiday intently.
At that time, on this day, the special edition of the "Los Angeles Times" reported on the headline of the front page with red fonts and green borders exclusively for Christmas. "The first 20 million dollars in film history was officially born!"
With a "boom", the entire North American film market began to shake, not just North America, the whole world was plunged into madness because of this news.
This exclusive news from Dawes Carter mentioned in the content that Hugo has formally reached a cooperation agreement with Twentieth Century Fox. The two parties will collaborate on a work temporarily named "End of the World". It will invest 100 million US dollars, directed by Roland Emmerich, and the script will be written by Roland and partner Dean Devlin. Both parties have completed the signing process, and the film will be officially launched after the New Year.
What is certain is that Hugo will receive an unprecedented remuneration of 20 million U.S. dollars for the film. In addition, in addition to the basic remuneration, he will also share the movie's box office dividends.
This issue of the Los Angeles Times directly sold 6.21 million copies, surpassing the sales record created by Nicholas McLenna after the premiere of the "Seven Deadly Sins", and hit a new high. It has achieved another new high since the 1990s, swept across North America with a devastating momentum, and created an amazing chain reaction!
In less than half a year, the "Los Angeles Times" broke out with six million sales twice, which has also made the competition between the "Los Angeles Times" and the "New York Times", the two major mountains on both sides of the strait, increasingly fierce.
The sensation caused by this exclusive revelation is only the beginning, and the sales of 6.21 million copies are only the beginning of Hugo's powerful influence.
In the 20th century, Fox’s office phone was blown up immediately, vividly interpreting the true definition of the so-called hotline. In a hurry, Kevin Pence announced that Twentieth Century Fox will hold a temporary press conference to give an official response to the incident. Less than three hours after the release of the Los Angeles Times, Twentieth Century Fox quickly held a temporary press conference in Los Angeles.
At the press conference, Kevin responded positively to the recent rumors for the first time, and gave a positive answer to the Los Angeles Times report. Kevin confirmed that, “I’m very happy to announce that we have He has completed the contract with Mr. Lancaster, and he will be determined to star in the work "The End of the World" with a remuneration of 20 million US dollars. The specific details of the cooperation are still in-depth talks between the two parties, and we will come back when we have news. Announced to everyone."
In an instant, the entire press conference site boiled, and it broke out directly! Everyone clearly knows what this means. This can almost be said to be a historical moment for the change of dynasties!
Because this means that only six years after the highest salary in Hollywood rose to 15 million, it will once again break the shackles and bring the capped data to an incredible height of 20 million, making the entire Hollywood truly meaningful. Enter the era of "20 million pieces of pay".
In the past less than fifteen years, the actor’s salary has risen from 500,000 to 20 million, a full forty-fold increase, which is more rapid and exaggerated than the development of Hollywood in more than 60 years. It's really jaw-dropping!
At the same time, it also means that after Arnold Schwarzenegger became the first 15 million payee in film history, Hugo Lancaster became the first 20 million payee in film history, and Hugo also It will be accompanied by that paper contract and a check that will truly be recorded in the annals of history.
In fact, Arnold’s 15 million remuneration was the result of Hollywood’s concerted efforts. The work was done by an innovative artist agency, but the entire Hollywood agency industry and actors are working together to promote such a result; in contrast, The 20 million film pay has encountered strong resistance from major Hollywood studios.
This is not just as simple as a five-million-dollar salary increase, but under the leadership of a group of high-investment and high-cost works led by "Future Water World", the cost of each film production link will rise linearly. Perhaps the actor's salary has risen by only 5 million, but the cost of the entire crew will rise by 10 million, 20 million, or even 50 million. So, when I mentioned 20 million dollars in salary several times last year, I couldn't make it in the end.
But this time, Twentieth Century Fox made such a breakthrough so easily. Even if other film companies wanted to oppose it, they finally gave up. The reasons behind it include historical promotion, industrial changes, etc., and more important reasons are It's Hugo!
From "Sleepless in Seattle" to the "Seven Deadly Sins" near the end of the screening-the box office of the two works "Before Sunrise" and "Death Row" are not included in the category. In three years, the rain He contributed five box-office masterpieces, all of which had a box office of over 100 million, two of which exceeded 200 million. The global box office all exceeded US$300 million. Among them, the lowest box office in North America was "Pulp Fiction" with 170 million. Thousands of two million-not the so-called "over 100 million box office" that has just passed the 100 million threshold, but has actually passed the 150 million box office.
Not to mention that there is also an Oscar-winning work and an Oscar-nominated work.
Hugo's powerful appeal has reached its absolute peak, and it can be called the spire of the Hollywood Pyramid, a unique spire. For such a spire, if his remuneration and treatment have not been correspondingly improved, what will happen?
First of all, the salary of other actors is not only not mentioned, but also needs to be lowered. "Even Hugo only gets 15 million pieces. Why do you?" This idea is bound to become more and more prosperous, which makes Hugo paid. The improvement has been unanimously supported by the agency and the actors' union.
Secondly, film companies cannot show differentiated treatment. For example, 20th Century Fox invited Hugo to appear in "The End of the World", but what is the difference between this and the invitation of Tom Cruise and Harrison Ford? From the standpoint of the film company's propaganda, this is also unfavorable. Just like when the 15 million club came out, every time the film company decided on a new project, it would deliberately emphasize this point in the press conference, hoping to differentiate its own works and attract more audiences' attention.
To put it simply, remuneration is actually a distinguishing sign of actor level, which is also one of the factors that make the pyramid appear echelon. It is beneficial to actors and film companies, and the remuneration itself is an important part of industrialization. As the first person in Hollywood today, Hugo specializes and differentiates him, which is very necessary for all parties.
More importantly, the Hugo's remuneration will be increased to 20 million, and what kind of box office results will accompany it, which also makes every film company extremely look forward to it. From the current situation, the major The film companies have absolute confidence in Hugo! Not only Twentieth Century Fox, but also other film companies are now gearing up to reserve Hugo's next work: the same is paid for 20 million pieces!
What is the difference between a year ago and a year later? In fact, it is the "career decline theory" that the "New York Post" worries about.
Because Hugo’s performance was so good before, people couldn’t tell if it was a whim or strength, and the timing was not easy—if they only paid 20 million yuan, Hugo would have fallen. ? That's what it means to lose money.
At such a moment, the appearance of "before sunrise" directly singled out the doubts hidden in people's hearts, and then Hugo broke these doubts through the great success of "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death Row", allowing everyone They were all clearly aware that they thought that Hugo had reached the peak and there was a possibility of a landslide, but in fact Hugo was still climbing and his peak was far from coming.
As a result, the 20 million remuneration paid by Fox in the twentieth century came out naturally, and it did not face the criticism of last year’s remuneration at all.
With the confirmation of Twentieth Century Fox, all TV programs, all radio programs, all newspapers and magazines focused on this matter for the first time, because the "20 million film pay" is not only Hugo's first time in the basic film pay. The moment of breakthrough is a summary of Hugo's incomparable glory over the past few years, especially when Brad Pitt climbed to the top of "People" Weekly the world's sexiest man grabbed the right to win the class Let people clearly feel the superstar light of Hugo!
This is the real superstar! Twenty million pays instantly distinguished Hugo from everyone else. He became the first and only 20 million pay for Hollywood, which not only broke history, but also made history. What is even more incredible is that no one thinks this is abnormal and no one protests that it is too exaggerated. On the contrary, almost everyone is applauding, everyone is amazed, everyone is chanting "the arrival of history".
The reaction of the media, the reaction of the audience, this is the real embodiment of the Hugo superstar's light, he is the first person in Hollywood today, no one can match.
If you look back at Hugo’s development trajectory in the past few years, this is truly amazing. Starting from the Golden Raspberry Award in 1992, Hugo, who was crying and receiving his first Golden Plum Worst Actor Trophy, became countless. People’s laughing stock, many people firmly believe that this is the end of Hugo’s career; but in a blink of an eye, four years have passed. Hugo not only did not end his career, but on the contrary, it reached a height that many people could not reach. A masterpiece has repeatedly created miracles, and has made incredible breakthroughs in acting, and has achieved the highest glory of Hollywood's first person.
What is condensed in Hugo's body is not only the light of superstars, but also a myth of immortal dreams!
