Chapter 80: First payment

After the movie ended, Ryan greeted Warner’s people, pulled Nicole and drove off quickly, the reporters are all going to the press conference, don’t take this opportunity to leave, do you have to wait for them to start chase and intercept?

He notified Warner in advance that he would not participate in the press conference after the premiere. He is not a fool. He will automatically serve as a target for media fire. Besides, there are Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston. The two big stars are here, and news gossip is enough for them to write.

The reporters and paparazzi are indeed concentrated in the press hall of the theater. They have a tacit understanding for a long time. They must revisit the original conflict in front of Ryan Jenkins and detonate the topic again. If it can inspire him to talk to Tom K. Ruth fired it, and it couldn't be more wonderful.

It’s just that when someone from the crew showed up, they discovered that the little guy... slipped away!

Everyone knows that Ryan Jenkins is young, but he is not easy to deal with, but it is extremely rare to retreat without a fight.

After the Thanksgiving holiday, Ryan took up his schoolbag and re-entered the campus, focusing most of his energy on the script of "Killer Leon". As for the reporter who besieged him again because of the release of "Bodyguard" , Completely turned a blind eye, anyway, he is now a two-point line, except for home and school, hardly go to other places, those guys have nothing to do with him.

"The selection of "Bodyguard" is novel, combining thrills, action, gunfights, entertainment, and romantic tenderness together successfully, offering the audience a fascinating masterpiece based on stereotypes!"

"This movie does not have many intense scenes, but uses a lot of space to describe the best feelings of mankind. A word of'love' runs through it, from the first depression to the fierce explosion at the end, to vent this feeling. It’s so vivid and vivid, I have to say that this is an excellent romance film."

"Compared with the film’s cliché plot, we should pay more attention to the film’s soundtrack and the songs interspersed in it. There is no doubt that Whitney Houston sang "I.will.always.love.you" at the end of the film. "It will become a classic!"

"Kevin Costner made a lively interpretation of an iron-blooded man who was not swaying in appearance but warm and sincere in his heart, strong, brave, and warm. The singer-songwriter Whitney Houston, who made his debut on the big screen, performed a big show. Close, sway freely, and vividly interpret a female singer who is stubborn, secular, arrogant but kind-hearted and longing for love."

The new movie was released, and all kinds of comments were indispensable. Amidst the various discussions, the movie passed its first week.

In fact, as many commentators have said, this movie is indeed very clichéd, but it is clichéd and moving. Whether Kevin Costner or Whitney Houston, they are now well-deserved superstars with powerful Charisma.

What's more, audiences across the United States have long been curious about this movie. Even if they heard some intermittent plots from news videos, they did not prevent them from buying tickets frantically. It only took more than three hours to witness Ryan Jenkins. What will the miracle created be like?

Facts have proved that topics, hype and publicity, as well as the golden signs gradually erected by Ryan Jenkins, have a huge impact on the box office numbers of a movie.

After the first four days, the film dropped to the top of the North American box office rankings, winning a box office figure of 41.15 million U.S. dollars. After the second week, the box office had a certain shock, but it still won 29.55 million U.S. dollars. So far, the film is not only Costs have been recovered and profits have been generated.

On the other hand, the impact of "Bodyguard" is not inferior to the box office numbers. When the film is released, the original soundtrack will be released in advance. The single "I.will.always.Love.you", after the first week, Not only did it become the No. 1 single on the Billboard, it also broke the single-week single sales record, selling more than 632,000 copies.

Whether it is a box office, a single, or an original soundtrack, there is a copy of Ryan and Jenkins Pictures in the division.

Of course, if someone likes it, someone will oppose it. For example, a film critic of the "Hollywood Report" wrote, "This is a movie without any creativity, a cliché plot, and a contrived performance, except for a few songs. It sounds good, it’s useless, Whitney Houston should go back and continue singing instead of starting a new career on the big screen! Especially Ryan Jenkins, if his scripts were of this level, that day would be a bit of an exaggeration. Up!"

Unfortunately, his views do not represent the views of the film company. The script written by Ryan has been successful in succession. If once or twice or accidentally, how about three or four times? Even industry insiders who are slow to react understand that Ryan Jenkins has an extremely keen instinct for the appetite of most audiences.

So far, the four scripts he has created, except for the blockbuster "Sixth Sense", the rest are all borrowed from Hollywood's long-used bridges and applied to new ideas, using new bottles of old wine. , Once again sold to the audience, but extremely popular in the market.

There is no doubt that the reason why Ryan Jenkins is so productive in the script, this tricky method has helped him a lot, but everyone knows that he is tricking, but it can’t be denied, whether it’s "Home Alone" The nonsense, or the warmth of Sleepless in Seattle, or the **** love of "Bodyguard", is covered with a new coat on top of the clichés.

And this coat is creativity, creativity is sometimes cheap, but creativity that can bring benefits is the most valuable thing.

The media's interpretation of "Bodyguard" is still going on. Inevitably, Brother Tom would be taken to the public by reporters and paparazzi, and walked around for a few laps. The big star was very simple and went directly to the Caribbean private after the movie Vacation on the island.

"The most commendable thing about this film is Ryan's bold creativity. He put a sincere and passionate love on two people of different skin color and showed it in the film. This pioneering work represents the progress of the United States!"- "Vanity Fair"

Ryan did not know whether the screenwriter and director of this movie in the previous life had such intentions, but he absolutely did not mean that. Perhaps the term brain supplement has not yet appeared, but the media and the public’s interpretation of many movies is undoubtedly unclear. Show this vocabulary.

Whether America is making progress, it's a matter of mind!

Besides, this kind of thing is just to say, the status of black people...Well, this kind of problem can never be solved, even in the entertainment industry, it is still the case. Needless to say what happened to Michael Jackson, just talk about Whitt Nie Houston, if it wasn't for her skin color, she would be compared to Madonna Siconi.

On the other hand, the huge sales of the original soundtrack of "Bodyguard" forced the entire entertainment industry to re-evaluate Ryan’s value. They all knew that he could create songs, but the songs he created were so good and sold so well that they exceeded all. Human expectations.

"Ryan Jenkins's talent and accomplishment in music are not inferior to other aspects at all, and even better. Think about the song "he", which is still in the top ten on the billboard, and the champion. "I.will.always.love.you" and "I.have.nothing" in the fourth place!"

The article comes from "Rolling Stone" magazine. They also interviewed other people. "Whitney Houston admitted in an interview that she accepted many suggestions from Ryan when she performed the song. She confessed that Ryan wrote ten songs. Songs, to her, are as brilliant and precious as the stars in the night sky!"

Ryan’s eight original songs, although not as amazing as the two plagiarized ones, are still good enough, and even two capitals have entered the billboard charts. In this way, the sales of the original soundtrack can be imagined.

On Christmas Eve, the North American box office of "Bodyguard" passed the $100 million mark, and the original soundtrack sold more than 2 million copies, but Ryan knew that the sales of discs were just the beginning. In the past life, This album has set a sales record for female singers' records.

Jenkins Pictures also ushered in its first revenue since its establishment. After the first box office split, the company account has nearly 10 million dollars more. Compared with the box office number, it is very inconspicuous, but they only accounted for four points of the movie. One investment is six million US dollars, and the movie is still far from the next stage, and there will be overseas box office and various derivatives in the future.

Ryan and Nicole also came to the company office in Burbank for the first time. This is an independent two-story building that adds up to 300 square feet. The official staff has expanded to nine people. The person is no longer Scott Swift, but hired a professional interpretation supervisor and producer from Australia, named Jules Stewart, who is a standard strong woman.

Jinsli and Scott waited in the office early, and the two of them chatted for a while with some emotion, when did the movie become a profiteering industry? The investment made half a year ago has almost doubled. With the release of "Bodyguard" in overseas regions, the profits may more than double.

Now even Scott is considered to be an insider. They naturally know where there is such a high profit in the movie. Otherwise, those arms dealers will promote the army to change their clothes and do what they can do directly to make the movie.

This situation will happen now, all because of the boy who just walked in, he is like being kissed by God, and he is always able to create works that continue to sell well.

"Hi, Ryan, and Nicole."

The four of them didn't have any politeness to talk about. They simply greeted them and talked about some things about the company.

Ryan is a layman to these, unless it is related to movies, he would not speak easily. Fortunately, Nicole knew his flaws and used his spare time to learn a lot of financial knowledge. After all, some things are not wrong.

Ryan has not yet reached adulthood. According to the law, he cannot directly hold shares in the company. As a guardian, Nicole Kidman has become the custodian. She naturally wants to take good care of the family business for him.

"Nicole, there is an invitation from you!" Jinsili handed over a simple script.

"What crew?" Ryan was very curious. Under Nicole's gaze, he took the script and flipped through a few pages. The veins jumped on his forehead, "Instinct?"
