Just don’t forget to confirm again.

You can't have good intentions and end up doing bad things.

"Yes, that's right. I will accept this red envelope without mercy when the time comes."

"Well, on behalf of my child, I would like to say thank you in advance."

Qin Dong nodded with satisfaction and said politely.

"Ha ha..."

Barry also smiled with satisfaction.

It’s just a red envelope, how much can it cost?

This little money is really not money to Barry.

The two of them laughed and chatted some more before continuing with their previous business.

"Qin, we still need time to choose actors. You happen to have a movie to shoot here, and you still have at least a few months to select actors. After all, the image of the actor you need this time is indeed very unique."

"It's really unique. In the entertainment industry nowadays, handsome guys and beauties are common. If you want to find an actor like that, you have to cast a wider net. You can ask Martin."

Qin Dong agreed with this view and did not forget to give Martin a hand in the end.

Once the movie is successful, the actors will inevitably become popular.

This is an important matter for management companies that rely on artists for their livelihood.

"Hey, Martin...if this actor is given to him, I'm afraid that Robert Downey Jr.'s incident will happen again."

Barry immediately understood Qin Dong's words and started to complain slightly.

There are no secrets in the industry. Disney's dissatisfaction with Robert Jr. can be hidden from ordinary people, but it cannot be hidden from Warner, who is also one of the six giants.

Why are most Hollywood series films trilogies?

The reason why there are so few series that exceed three parts is that actors' salaries have skyrocketed.

[Pirates of the Caribbean] The first three movies were so good, why was it that the fourth movie was filmed after so many years? Moreover, the fourth movie deleted all the male and female protagonists from the first three movies, and only retained the role of Captain Jack Sparrow, just to save money.

After the original trilogy, we originally planned to shoot a fourth part, but it turned out that the salaries of the three leading actors were too high and we couldn't afford to hire them.

Even if two characters were deleted and one starring character was retained, Disney would still be afraid of Johnny Depp's asking price and not dare to film it.

It was only after many years and Depp's salary was reduced that he filmed the fourth film again.

At the beginning of the new century, Sony's Tobey Maguire version of "Spider-Man" also stopped filming the fourth part after the trilogy.

The reason is also that Tobey Maguire’s asking price is too high and Sony can’t afford to hurt him.

It’s not like Hollywood companies don’t know this truth, they have also implemented the practice of packaging multiple films to limit the contracts of starring actors in series.

However, a contract is a contract, and it is difficult to operate in reality.

The three leading actors in the "Harry Potter" triangle signed a multi-film contract with Warner Bros.

In the end, the three actors jointly threatened Warner and would stop acting if they did not increase their remuneration based on the original contract.

So in order to appease [Harry Potter] fans around the world, Warner had no choice but to agree to this condition and changed the contract it had originally designed.

However, Warner was not a kind person and only gave the three leading actors a share of the box office profits.

So, after using the three leading actors to film the series in one go, and when they started to pay the salaries, Warner did its accounting and regarded the box office profit of "Harry Potter" as a loss.

For this reason, the three leading actors filed a lawsuit with Warner Bros., but ended up losing.

Warner's accounting was successful, and the court ruled in favor of Warner.

According to Warner's bill, the production cost of [Harry Potter], plus global promotion expenses, etc., the box office is indeed losing money. Warner must rely on other copyright income and offline discs to make a profit.

“Let’s wrap up multiple film contracts at once.”

"If Marvel gives the kind of contract that other actors except Robert Jr. would have."

Qin Dong said something casually after hearing this.

It's not that Qin Dong is on Barry's side, it's that Barry will act like this whether Qin Dong says so or not.

After all, Marvel's contract to package multiple film contracts with leading actors at once was not pioneered by Marvel.

Before Marvel was in dire straits and about to go bankrupt, Warner had already done this.

Qin Dong, who knew this clearly, would certainly not pretend to be confused.

"It's a good suggestion, but the premise is that the movie must be able to continue for a long time like Marvel."

Barry had an expression that I didn't expect, it looked very fake.

Warner had done this kind of contract ten years ago.

"Yeah... I believe in my own strength, and you should too, Barry."

Qin Dong started boasting without hesitation.
