Leonardo, who was born in 1974, was only 27 years old at the end of last year. Most actors of this age are still eager for a chance to gain popularity, but for the 21-year-old filmed "Titanic" "No.", who became the world's hottest fresh meat at the age of 23, he thought all over his mind that it would not have been a time when it would become a hit, but when will it be possible to regain its glory.
The influence of "Titanic" in the history of film needless to say, it has maintained the highest record in the world's box office since its release, and this love disaster film is also the most familiar Hollywood work of the global audience. As the Male lead corner of this movie, Leonardo used to be infinitely beautiful, but unfortunately, after "Titanic", Leonardo himself has been going downhill.
In recent years, he has maintained the output efficiency of a film almost every year, but these works are also very common in word of mouth and influence. Not to mention the comparison with the Titanic, even if the film in the same period of the year No one can lead the way.
Originally, Hollywood has lost interest in Leonardo, but fortunately, at this critical moment, super first-line director Spielberg invited him to join "Cat and Mouse Game", and served as the male number one, and even Moved out of the super first-line actor Tom Hanks to play with him.
Leonardo regarded the film as his turnaround and had high hopes for the film, but before the film was released, he was also worried that the movie ’s limelight would be covered by Lord of the Rings 2. In the past, as soon as the didn't expect movie was released, my worries became a reality.
The Lord of the Rings 2 is definitely the box office champion at the end of the year with the influence of the original, the influence of the first part and its own excellent production, but the one-time push of didn't expect and YY is completely reversed. This situation makes the "Cat and Mouse Game" starring himself become the current box office leader.
Leonardo is completely convinced by the strong influence of Li Mu. With such a powerful promotion channel of YY, Li Mu has been sought after by the entire Hollywood. If Li Mu's Muying ticketing system is popularized in North America next time, then Li Mu The influence of the box office will be further improved. By that time, if Li Mu really enters Hollywood, then the box office must have a very strong guarantee.
Isn't the real core of the movie industry the box office? Once the box office guarantee is in place, famous directors, famous actors, influencers and Oscars are all right.
From Li Mu, Leonardo seems to see the shadow of a new giant Hollywood.
"Cat and Mouse Game" surpassed "The Lord of the Rings 2". Leonardo, who was no longer so sought after by Hollywood, became a hot figure at once. Famous directors and film and television companies are paying attention to him.
It's not just the industry that is paying attention. After the movie "Cat and Mouse" became popular, Leonardo quickly harvested a lot of fans in North America.
Netizens in North America discussed Leonardo and the "Cat and Mouse Game" starring him on the Internet. The male audience was attracted by his acting skills and the IQ of the characters in his play. The female audience was astounded by his face value. When posting on the Internet, countless female netizens will be accompanied by a poster of Leonardo wearing a pilot uniform, because that perfect image has captured the hearts of countless female audiences.
Leonardo was suddenly sought after by so many netizens, which also attracted the media ’s special attention. In order to catch the hot news, recent entertainment reports almost put Leonardo on the headline. This This further enhanced Leonardo's influence.
Once people are lucky, not only do good things happen one after another, but they can also form a circle and promote each other, which is what Leonardo does.
Now that he is being sought after by netizens, the media attention has brought him more fans, and at the same time, his popularity in Hollywood has continued to rise, and soon became a hot hand. Hot popular movie star, nowadays, almost every day someone sends the script to their own, hoping to invite themselves to participate in the show,
This general change in the butterfly effect makes Leonardo particularly grateful to Li Mu. Even though he knows that the starting point of Li Mu's is not necessarily to help himself, he still feels that he owes Li Mu because of this matter. Human relations.
At the same time, Leonardo has also become more cautious. He knows that every success is hard-won, so he always reminds himself that he must be cautious and cautious when taking new films. bad movie.
And at this time, he suddenly received a call from Spielberg. Spielberg said, "Leo, I recently had a concept for a new play, and the script has basically been completed. I just sent the script to your e-mail, you can see if you are interested. "
"Cat and Mouse Game" gave Leonardo another chance to cooperate with the super first-line director after many years, and this time there is also super first-class movie actor Tom Hanks, Leonardo has benefited from the cooperation with them. More, what he most desires is to be able to make another Spielberg, or James Cameron's new play, didn't expect this wish will be realized so soon!
After hearing Spielberg ’s idea of a new play, and asking if he was interested, Leonardo immediately got excited and could n’t wait to say: “Steven, I can do your play without reading the script. Decided, you only need to tell me when to shoot and where to shoot, I will definitely appear on time! "
Spielberg laughed: "Don't you want to know the general situation of this movie first?"
Leonardo said without thinking: "No, my answer is YES!"
Spielberg said: “Most of the scene ’s shots must be filmed in China, and there are many movie scenes. It is estimated that you will need to shoot in China for a long time after the shooting.”
"No problem!" Leonardo said: "If you need to shoot on Mars, as long as you can send me over, my answer is still no problem!"
Spielberg laughed: "OK, you finish reading the script first, let's talk about more detailed cooperation plans."
"OK!"
After hanging up the phone, Leonardo excitedly turned on the computer, log in ’s own email, and was very excited. If he can work with Spielberg again, it ’s a great thing for himself. , Spielberg's strength is there, even if you do not read the script, you can ensure that it will not be a bad film.
However, Leonardo is still curious about the script. He wants to know what kind of story Spielberg has prepared for Hollywood and even the whole world.
Like most Americans, Leonardo ’s understanding of World War II mainly focused on European wars and the Pacific War between the United States and Japan, so when he saw the outline of the script, he even knew Surprisingly, what kind of character was Chennault who helped China resist the invasion of the Japanese by China? Why haven't he heard of it? Is Spielberg going to make a movie about such a person?
Leonardo ’s heart is somewhat unfounded. Hollywood shoots war films basically based on well-known historical characters and well-known battles, shooting an unknown person and a battle that Americans do n’t understand. Is there any market for American movies?
In a skeptical mood, Leonardo began to read the text of the script. What made him didn't expect was that he was completely attracted to the text of the script, which could be read in half an hour. He just watched the script for over an hour before finishing it.
When watching this script, Leonardo was so excited that he could not add it. He did n’t know that there were such people and things in the United States during World War II.
For World War II, Americans have two greatest prides.
First, they helped the Allied forces achieve Normandy log in and finally defeated Nazi Germany;
Second, they annihilated the Japanese navy, bombed Japan, and dropped two atomic bombs, accelerating the surrender of Japan.
These two events that make Americans most proud are in nature the sacrifices, efforts, and contributions that the United States has made for world peace. It is precisely such deeds that most inspire Americans ’pride to maintain world peace. 1. The vanity of being a world police.
So when Leonardo saw the story of Chennault and his Flying Tigers, he was once again moved by this American contribution to world peace, and at the same time he immediately realized that many Americans in although I do n’t know who Chennard is, I do n’t know the history of the Flying Tigers, but as long as such a movie is made, Americans will love watching it!
Moreover, the story itself really impressed Leonardo. In his view, the unruly male No. 2 was tailor-made for himself. Such a good story, a good script, and With a good director like Spielberg, even if you get a 50% discount on pay, you will certainly not hesitate.
After reading the script, Leonardo saw Spielberg ’s remarks. When he saw that the movie was invested in Li Mu and invested 100 million USD, he was almost excited and jumped!
Li Mu's resources are so powerful, if it is a movie he invested in, exposure must be the least worrying issue! And Li Mu has YY, and Muying ticketing system, in this case, the box office does not have to worry at all!
Not to mention, Li Mu has come up with a budget of 100 million USD this time. With so much budget and Spielberg sitting in town, the quality of this movie is perfectly guaranteed.
Combining this information, Leonardo concluded that this "Flying Tigers" will inevitably be a good movie of high quality and a good box office movie!
Is n’t an actor the most eager to make a good box office movie?
Excited Leonardo immediately talked to his agent and said simply said: "I received a script for a new play. I like this story very much and I am ready to follow it."
Agent hastily asked: "Whose movie is it?"
"A film directed by Spielberg."
The other party said excitedly: "Great! It is definitely a great thing for you to work with Spielberg!"
Speaking, the other party asked: "How much can I get for this time?"
Leonardo said: "Nothing, it's just a preparatory period, but Spielberg meant to let me pay for the film."
The other party said: "Now the cat-and-mouse game is in flames, and your value has been greatly improved. In my opinion, how much your film market price has reached more than 20 million USD, but since it is with Spear Director Berg cooperated, then we can lower the box office a little, 15 million, what do you think? "
Leonardo said without hesitation: "I am going to lower the pay to five million USD!"
Just when the other party was shocked and speechless, Leonardo added: "Or it could be lower ..."
