Chapter 863: Actively start work
Bruckheimer is a very positive person who does things.
In his previous life, he was not a person who continued to work on a second project after completing one project, he usually prepared several projects at the same time, and before this project was completed, the second project began to enter the planning stage.
Yin Jun likes such hard-working people.
And it was such a diligent gold medal producer who held the script of "Beverly Hills Detective" and read it for a full week.
During this time, Bruckheimer did not go out much at all.
Then what he handed over to Yin Jun was a thick stack of feelings and his own planning ideas, which was almost no thinner than the script.
A person's success is never accidental.
Yin Jun didn't know how Bruckheimer made the production plan later, but just based on his understanding and planning methods and steps, he knew that he had thoroughly understood the whole story and rhythm.
After reading the manuscript slowly, Yin Jun put it aside, "Jerry, are you willing to join the Kirin culture, or do you want to do it alone and just cooperate with us?"
Bruckheimer had already made a plan, and when he heard this, he said: "I want to sign a five-year contract with Kirin Culture first, and I will work for you wholeheartedly within these five years." ”
Who said that Americans and Chinese people can't talk about the scene?
Do you see how beautifully Bruckheimer put it?
Work wholeheartedly for Yin Jun.
However, people said that the preconditions of "signing first" and "five years" were said.
You can't say that he is an anti-bone boy, after five years, his wings will be stiff and he will fly away, after all, he did not say that he will not renew the contract after 5 years.
However, there are more people who are about to leave when their wings are stiff, and no one dares to guarantee that after 5 years, Bruckheimer will still be able to stay in Qilin Culture.
At least Yin Jun knew that Bruckheimer would probably not be able to keep it.
Now he may not have too much thought, just don't lock his back road, but after 5 years, after his continuous success, vision and realm to a higher level, he will definitely be willing to chase his dreams.
In the history of his previous life, Bruckheimer was such a strong person.
The owner of a small film company, relying on his status as a gold medal producer, has been rated as "one of the most powerful people in Hollywood" for many years.
Naturally, Yin Jun did not rely on his prophet of the future to force Bruckheimer to stay.
If he now says that a 10-year contract will guarantee my reuse of you, Bruckheimer will probably have to agree in the end.
Because Bruckheimer needs such an opportunity so badly.
But Yin Jun didn't want to do that.
Bruckheimer is a great gold producer, but that doesn't mean he can't find someone who can be replaced.
And Yin Jun knows what Hollywood production will develop in the future.
When the works of Marvel and DC Comics are put on the screen in turn, the role of these so-called producers, directors, and even stars will be greatly reduced.
Exquisite production, hot special effects, exciting plot, eye-catching handsome guys and beauties...... Taken together, these have dominated Hollywood blockbusters for more than 20 years since 2000 and dominated the box office.
Only a few people can really rely on their own understanding of movies to make good movies that don't need these things.
Kubrick counts one, Woody Allen counts one, Spielberg counts one, Trucker counts one, Christopher Nolan counts one, Tim Burton counts one, David Fincher counts one, and Quentin Tarantino counts one.
The rest, even if there are fish that have slipped through the net, I am afraid there are not many.
But these masters above are usually stubborn and don't have many works, and it is very difficult to cooperate with them.
Yin Jun still cooperates with the kind of director who is good at commercial films, and that is enough.
For example, Michael Bay, Chris Columbus, Joss Wayne, Ridley Scott, Stephen Sommers, ...... These are enough, and there is no need for Bruckheimer to stare at them.
So, it's good to have Bruckheimer, but without him, Kirin movies can still do well.
This is what Yin Jun has always wanted to make Kirin movies do, or rather, something that he can stick to in the future.
We should not rely too much on one person, but on the strength of the whole company and the joint efforts of everyone to move forward.
Just like Disney after 2012.
Come back to the present.
Bruckheimer can help Yin Jun for 5 years, which is actually a great thing, Yin Jun can squeeze his potential and hand over several movies to him to make.
With Bruckheimer's gold-medal production ability, after these movies are filmed and released, they can naturally help Disney and United Arts movies get on the right track faster.
Even if Bruckheimer doesn't have the production ability of his peak, Yin Jun will not give him too difficult films, if he can't finish it, it will really deserve the prestige of his previous life from 1983.
Seeing that Yin Jun hadn't spoken, Bruckheimer looked a little nervous.
He didn't know what Yin Jun was thinking, whether he felt that his answer was too rude.
But this is also Bruckheimer's sincere explanation of his thoughts to Yin Jun, and he doesn't want to be behind, because of this and Yin Jun.
In the eyes of the Americans, this must be a cautious attitude, after all, what will happen to Bruckheimer, no one knows.
If he behaves well, then he will renew his contract after 5 years.
If he doesn't behave as expected, then he will leave on his own after 5 years without delay.
But Bruckheimer remembered that he was now in Xiangjiang, and Chinese people seemed to pay attention to working for a company from the beginning, or for a lifetime...... Just like those Japanese companies that have been very popular in the United States recently.
If Yin Jun thinks the same as those people, then he is really ruining the opportunity!
He was about to explain something to Yin Jun, but Yin Jun spoke at this time, "Then sign a contract for 5 years first!" However, I hope you can take over the production of at least 6 films, and the contract is subject to the completion of the production of these 6 films, no problem, right?"
"No problem!"
The big stone in Bruckheimer's heart fell to the ground, and an emotion welled up in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Yin Jun actually gave himself such a big responsibility, trusted himself so much, and gave himself 6 movies to make.
No matter how lonely Lianyi Film Company is, it is also one of the seven giants of Hollywood, and it is absolutely unique to be able to occupy the production share of 6 movies in it!
If you don't do a good job in the movie, I'm really sorry for Yin Jun's appreciation.
After he digested his mood, Yin Juncai continued: "You should also watch the character introduction of this movie." All that's left is to find the director, build the crew, the venue, and other factors, and you can do it yourself. If you need anything, I will ask Ms. Tang to cooperate with you...... As for the production cost, which you estimated at $20 million, I approved it. However, I only give the crew 10 million for the publicity and distribution costs, and how much can the production cost of 20 million be saved, then you can increase the publicity and distribution costs. ”
"Good!"
Bruckheimer readily agreed.
But he still insisted on expressing his worries, "Junshao, I still stick to my suggestions in the plan." It is really dangerous to use a black man as the number one protagonist, and then use a Chinese female number one. I'm worried that the box office won't meet expectations and cause losses to the company. ”
"You don't have to think about it. Yin Jun raised his hand and said, "You have to remember that as long as it is a movie produced by our company, a Chinese will inevitably play one of the leading roles." A good movie is as long as it is accompanied by good actors, and it doesn't matter what country they are from. That's my insistence, you know?"
"Yes!"
Bruckheimer nodded immediately.
The boss has said so, how can he still be bored to look for it?
"If you agree, I want to bring both the hero and heroine back to the United States this time and start adaptation preparations. Bruckheimer said, "Including the knowledge of firearms, familiarity with some rules and customs of the United States, and familiarity with each other's scripts, all need to be prepared in advance." I hope to start shooting in June at the latest. ”
"Yes. Yin Jun said, "Eddie Murphy will follow you back to the United States, and Lin Qingxia has returned to Los Angeles, you can go to her when the time comes." ”
"Good!"
Bruckheimer was also simply, after talking about this, he packed up and went back to the hotel, and then began to book air tickets.
Yin Jun looked a little funny, but he also felt his positive energy.
He didn't ask what the box office expectation of "Beverly Hills Detective" was, but he still did it seriously, hoping to be above the standard.
After all, this is the first film he has ever made.
Bruckheimer would not have known that the North American box office of "Beverly Hills Detective" would reach more than $230 million, and the global box office would exceed $400 million, beating the second episode of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and winning the North American box office champion of the year in one fell swoop.
If it weren't for the fact that "Beverly Hills Detective" was too suitable for Eddie Murphy's characteristics, Yin Jun would not be willing to let Eddie Murphy play it, he actually wanted Yuan Biao or Hong Jinbao to play it.
Such a good popular movie with both fame and fortune is really a waste if you don't give it to your own people.
But fortunately, Eddie Murphy also signed a 10-year contract with Yin Jun, such a long contract is enough for Eddie Murphy to contribute his best acting career to Kirin Films.
Besides, the Kirin movie can't all praise the Chinese, if you don't even praise a few European and American stars, I'm afraid that it will be used by people with intentions to incite others to make trouble, and then it will cause inexplicable resistance and crusade from Europe and the United States, which will not be good.
Although most of the big-name stars in Europe and the United States are weirdos, with eccentric tempers and causing trouble everywhere, there are also good actors in it.
For example, Tom Hanks, Will Smith, Morgan, etc., are good stars who can be supported!
