Chapter 2321 Join the crew

After a while of calculation, seeing the final result, especially after comparing the two, Kim Yu-fan couldn't help but smile.

At this moment, Kim Yu-fan could even foresee Paramount Pictures and Ian Bryce's face after the release of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction", especially when the box office erupted in Asia.

The result is very simple, so based on the box office dividends that Kim Yu-fan had negotiated with Ian Bryce before.

First of all, the Chinese box office was in China. Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" had a box office of RMB 1.971 billion, equivalent to US$288 million. Paramount Pictures, as the producer and distribution company, was US$115.2 million.

According to the box office dividends proposed by Kim Yu-fan before, "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" has a box office of more than 1.8 billion yuan in China, and he can get a 15% box office dividend, which also means that of the $115.2 million, 17 million of the $115.2 million belongs to Kim Yu-fan.

In South Korea, based on a box office of 40%, Paramount Pictures can get $9.2 million for $23 million, and 40% of it belongs to Kim Yu-fan, that is $3.68 million.

As for other Southeast Asian countries, Kim Yu-fan can get 13%, Hong Kong's $5.6 million, Thailand's $5 million, India's $5.1 million. Including Asian countries such as Japan, Singapore, and Indonesia, there is no problem that the total amount is $15 million.

In this way, except for China and South Korea, the box office of other Asian countries is at least 30.7 million US dollars, and the one belonging to Paramount Pictures is 12.28 million US dollars. At that time, Kim Yu-fan can get 1.59 million US dollars at that time.

In this way, Kim Yu-fan can earn $22.27 million in box office dividends in Asia with the movie "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction", plus a $5 million in film pay, Kim Yu-fan can earn $27.27 million in the movie "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

Well, if it is calculated based on the 5% Asian box office proposed by Ian Bryce at the beginning, Kim Yu-fan will only get at most 10 million US dollars, and the gap between the two is tens of millions of US dollars.

Just kidding, Kim Yu-fan is not a fool. Even though he knew it was this result, how could Kim Yu-fan foolishly accept the 5% Asian box office dividends offered by Paramount Pictures.

If you choose your own way, you can make more money, and at the same time, it will not stimulate or offend Paramount Pictures. In the future, everyone will still make money together and cooperate happily. Although Paramount Pictures will definitely feel a little unhappy when it pays dividends to Kim Yu-fan according to the box office of the movie in Asia, in general, if Kim Yu-fan makes more, Paramount Pictures will make more, and it will not be so angry or unhappy with Kim Yu-fan.

Kim Yu-fan is just standing on the table now and shouted: Don’t play conspiracy with me. With my powerful prophet skills, you are all scumbags. You think you have made money, but the facts will prove that don’t laugh first, and laugh until the end is the real laugh, otherwise the previous laugh will be a fool’s behavior, and you will slap yourself in the face.

Americans focus on interests when doing things, and after interests, they are effective. Just the next day, Kim Yu-fan received a call from Ian Bryce, and then went to Paramount Pictures headquarters with James Steve. After confirming that the contract was not a problem, he immediately signed his name.

From the moment Kim Yu-fan signed his own name on the contract, there is no doubt that Kim Yu-fan became a member of the crew of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

Afterwards, Paramount Pictures was also rich, or because of the high box office of "The Doomsday" and Kim Yu-fan's contribution to box office. Paramount Pictures was also very generous, directly calling Kim Yu-fan's $5 million pay to Kim Yu-fan first, and then said that "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" is under intense shooting. If possible, I hope Kim Yu-fan will officially join the crew now.

Of course, Kim Yu-fan would not refuse Paramount Pictures' request. After all, the crew of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" has officially entered Hong Kong and started filming. And seeing that Paramount Pictures is so generous and willing to give him an extra 10 million US dollars, Kim Yu-fan immediately patted his chest, saying that there is no problem with his professional ethics, so he will set off right away now.

I simply chatted with James Steve. The most important thing was that Kim Yu-fan talked to James Steve. After asking James Steve to help him use the youngest everyone to get things done quietly, Kim Yu-fan took the plane ticket to Ian Bryce, who had already booked a plane ticket from Paramount Pictures to fly directly from Los Angeles to Hong Kong.

The next day, 14 hours later, Kim Yu-fan and Ian Bryce finally arrived at the Hong Kong International Airport and were picked up by the staff of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction". However, during this process, they were still discovered by the ubiquitous paparazzi in Hong Kong. So the news about Kim Yu-fan coming to Hong Kong instantly spread. In addition, Ian Bryce is not a small character, and his identity was soon investigated. So everyone knows that Kim Yu-fan officially joined the crew of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

Kim Yu-fan first came to the hotel prepared for the actors in "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction". After putting down his luggage, he went directly to the scene of the crew filming of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

Well~ In fact, Paramount Pictures has calculated very well in terms of time. Kim Yu-hwan came to the crew just right. The crew of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" correctly determined the first place to be filmed in Hong Kong and carried out a certain degree of scene construction. Before the filming officially started, Kim Yu-hwan could officially participate in the filming as soon as he came.

The first place to film "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" in Hong Kong is the King's Road near Woomin Street in Quarry Bay. Kim Yu-fan also officially met with director Michael Bay, screenwriter Iron Kruger, and other major actors in "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

"Kim, welcome your arrival." When Michael Beyon saw the arrival of Kim Yu-fan and Ian Bryce, he immediately greeted him with a smile and welcomed Kim Yu-fan to join very enthusiastically.

"The Battle of Doomsday" is in Asia, and everyone knows the reasons. Otherwise, Paramount Pictures would not have given Kim Yu-fan the so-called 5% dividend in Asia. You are really so generous as Paramount Pictures.

After all, it is worth the price of Kim Yu-fan, which is worth Paramount Pictures willing to pay such a great price to invite Kim Yu-fan to participate in the movie because Paramount Pictures knows that with Kim Yu-fan's joining, you can earn more money and income with Kim Yu-fan.

As the director of the Transformers movie series, Michael Bay is actually destined to go to the box office from the script and story of the Transformers movie series.

Therefore, Michael Bell doesn't mind at all, and will even try every means to increase the attention of the movie and make the box office of the movie as high as possible.

You know, Michael Bell didn't mind the outside world calling him a simple commercial film director. As for the names of low-level directors who only pursue box office and interests and have no meaning at all, Michael Bell said he didn't care.

Michael Bet is very clear that these are the jealousy, envy and hatred of others for themselves. So what about commercial films? You must know that commercial films are the greatest foundation and foundation for the prosperity of films.

Damn, there are no commercial movies in the world, they are all so-called artistic movies. They have acting skills, connotations, and awards, but the problem is that movie fans don’t buy it. You are not going to slowly destroy it with your own hands. It’s better to cultivate the film market.

Besides, if movie fans don’t buy it, box office failure will lead to continuous losses in film companies, and even the most powerful film companies will eventually go bankrupt. At that time, who will spend money to shoot movies, the film market will definitely be completely ruined.

It is precisely because of commercial movies that movies are destined to be popular worldwide, and film companies make a lot of money to continue production and have extra money to shoot other movies.

In a certain way, unless it is a movie that takes into account both art and box office, there are not a movie like this, but it is really too few. All art movies can basically be said to survive on commercial movies.

The success of commercial films has made the film company make money and only after having the remaining money will consider investing in art films, or so-called movies with connotations in some people. Once there is no commercial film to make money for the film company, the film company will always lose money. As long as it is not a fool, it will definitely not continue to invest in art films to get awards. The company loses so much that it has no money to pay wages and is about to go bankrupt. As for the awards, is it important?

Therefore, Michael Bay was not dissatisfied with the fact that he was recognized as a representative of the new generation of commercial film directors. On the contrary, he was willing to accept the title.

For Michael Bey, he is a plain person. He doesn't care about any honor, but only cares about his freedom and freedom, and being able to have fame and fortune. This is enough.

All of this can be brought to you by commercial movies. Anyway, compared to those directors who have high praise in the industry and are very artistic, and are always popular Oscars. They have more money and are more casual. Moreover, commercial movies also guarantee an absolute box office, so that they don’t have to worry about being scary without movies. Some people even beg themselves like grandpa.

Compared to those who seem very arrogant but actually have no income, they also ask for film companies like grandpa, who are the absolute masters and are more carefree when making movies.

Michael Be, who is committed to commercial films, attaches great importance to any opportunity to increase the box office of the movie. Kim Yu-fan's box office in the movie "Doomsday" was very high in Asia because of Kim Yu-fan. This is also the case when Ian Bryce proposed to let Kim Yu-fan participate in the movie "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" to make up for the vacancies of Asian actors and ensure the Asian box office market, Michael Be briefly understood Kim Yu-fan's situation and immediately decided to make Kim Yu-fan a very important role in "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

Michael Bay even put a lot of pressure on Ian Bryce and Paramount Pictures, requiring Paramount Pictures to get Kim Yu-fan. If he couldn't get Kim Yu-fan, he would not be able to guarantee the box office of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

The Transformers movie series is the most profitable and stable profitable movie for Paramount Pictures in recent years. There is no doubt that each of them is very important to Paramount Pictures, and it is even related to Paramount Pictures’ plans for the whole year and the investment plans for new movies.

So, when Michael Bay made such a statement and forced the box office, Paramount Pictures had no choice but to let Ian Bryce go out to negotiate with Kim Yu-fan, and rarely gave a 5% dividend of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" in the Asian box office.

Otherwise, even if Paramount Pictures really invited Kim Yu-hwan to participate in the movie "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction", it would definitely not give any privileges to pay box office dividends. It would be very interesting to be able to give millions of dollars in the film, and it would even be considered a gift to Kim Yu-hwan.

Now, when Michael Bey was particularly happy to see Kim Yu-fan standing in front of him, he certainly felt much more enthusiastic.

The box office results of the movie "Doomsday" in Asia are enough to prove Kim Yu-fan's unparalleled appeal and influence in Asia. Michael Bey firmly believes that with the addition of Kim Yu-fan, the box office of "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction" in Asia will undoubtedly be higher, thus driving the total box office of the movie "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction".

Although he forced Paramount Pictures to invite Kim Yu-fan to join the movie "Transformers 4: Rebirth of Extinction", Michael Bay didn't care at all.

Because Michael Bay knew that he was just a director, what he had to do was very simple, that was to make a good movie and then make the movie sell at the box office. As long as the movie sells at the box office, he would be the old man. Paramount Pictures not only would not resent its forced force this time, but would serve it like a grandson, and then carefully test it and discuss the shooting of "Transformers 5".

"Hello director, I am Yufan? Kim!" Seeing the aged Michael Be, Kim Yufan was a little surprised by the other party's enthusiasm, but he quickly came back to his senses and felt that this didn't seem to be a bad thing. Kim Yufan also smiled and said hello.

"It's good that you're here. Now we're about to start filming Hong Kong and the battle in China. It's good that you're here and you can shoot with the crew. By the way, you'll need to add a few more shots at that time, at least briefly introduce the role you play and appear at the beginning of the movie, which will trigger you to lead the Pla to fight the Crazy Robot next."

"No problem!" Kim Yu-fan nodded with a smile, and agreed very readily.

Michael Bay is the absolute soul and core of the "Transformers" movie series, and is also the most powerful, far exceeding the screenwriter and producer. Moreover, this is not the first time Michael Bay is filming "Transformers". This is the fourth part, so there is definitely no need to worry about anything in terms of experience.

So, Kim Yu-fan's answer was very refreshing, because Kim Yu-fan knew that Michael Bey would arrange everything, and all he needed to do was to fulfill his acting duties and film his own scenes.

Even if there is really something wrong, then I can raise it as soon as possible. Kim Yu-fan doesn't believe it. A director who plays commercial movies is so stubborn and can't listen to other people's opinions.

"Okay, I appreciate you a little." Although Kim Yu-hwan, as an actor, naturally had to obey the director's arrangements, it still surprised Michael Bet a little bit as clean and neat and so refreshing as Kim Yu-hwan's answer.

"Come on, I'll take you to find Yilun first. After all, he is the screenwriter. If you want to play the role, you still need to have a good chat with him." Michael Bey smiled and took Kim Yu-fan to the crew to find the screenwriter Yilun Kruger.

Looking at Michael Beck and Kim Yu-fan, he had to sigh that Michael Beck is worthy of being a very successful director. Not to mention his own directorial strength, at least Michael Beck is very outstanding in his behavior.

Since I just came over, Michael Bay, as the director, came to pick me up in person, and was very enthusiastic about me. He even took the initiative to take me to meet the screenwriter and said that he would have to talk to the screenwriter about the role.

Kim Yu-fan is not a fool either. Of course, he knows that since he is here, and Paramount Pictures was so anxious at the beginning, it is obvious that the screenwriter has completed the setting of his role. Even if he doesn't go, he will probably find other Asian actors to play this role.

This also means that the screenwriter has confirmed his role and the only thing he has to do is to act according to the role arranged by the screenwriter. As for talking to the screenwriter about the role he plays, these are all polite words.

However, Kim Yu-fan didn't say anything, just followed Michael Bay to find the screenwriter with a smile.

Because Kim Yu-hwan attaches great importance to the identity of Pla he wants to play, and he also knows that the screenwriter cannot truly understand the spirit of Chinese soldiers, so he must make his own requests and changes. Otherwise, the role he plays will definitely be selling dog meat under the guise of sheep. It is not a good thing in the eyes of the Chinese military.

Therefore, Kim Yu-fan is now planning to have a good chat with the screenwriter, and of course he also has to drag director Michael Bay on the way. Once he can't convince the screenwriter, he can use the box office to convince director Michael Bay. With Michael Bay's absolute right in the "Transformers" movie series, as long as Michael Bay thinks it makes sense and insists, even the screenwriter must give in.
