In the face of European and American international markets, the film pay is generally high, and there are also many domestic box offices in the United States. The main reason is that the quality of actors in China is too poor, and the price is too high, which has aroused the disgust of most people. How about this?
1030 10 actor pay exposure, Jet Li became the highest paid actor in Asia.
Looking at China and even Asian film circles, the highest paid film is not Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li or Chow Yun Fat, but Jet Li, which has always kept a low profile.
Yesterday, the reporter learned from the warlords that nearly half of this epic film, which cost more than 100 million yuan, was spent on the actor's salary, among which Jet Li became the most expensive actor in Asia with 1 billion yuan, setting a new record for the Chinese film. This is exactly what the old saying goes, "Make a fortune by muffling your voice".
In the ranking of warlords, Jet Li, Andy Lau and Xu earned 654.38+billion, 654.38+0.6 million, 654.38+0.2 million and 2 million respectively, and Jet Li earned 3.5 times as much as the other three.
Director Chen Kexin said that Jet Li is worth $654.38 million in Hollywood and is the highest paid actor in Asia. The film department starring him sells money. Last year's warlords Jet Li was his own boss, but he didn't get paid. After the film was released around the world, Jet Li earned 30 million dollars, so his value of150,000 dollars is quite worth it. "Without Jet Li, we dare not spend $40 million to make a China film. He is the guarantee of the global box office! "
Chen Kexin revealed that Jet Li is a friend this time. If his Hollywood value is converted according to the foreign exchange ratio at that time, the crew will pay him 65.438+0.2 billion RMB. But considering his friendship with the director, Jet Li generously erased 20 million RMB. Even so, Jet Li's 6,543.8 billion yuan has set a new record for his Chinese movies. The previous record was in 2002, when he took a photo of Zhang Yimou 0 10 for 70 million RMB.
1030 10 Huo Yuanjia = hero (300 million)
As for the other three main actors, Chen Kexin said that they all cut their salaries. "They have a good relationship with me. I know that I am under great pressure to invest in this war film, so I am all friends, otherwise I will not be able to beat the budget of 40 million US dollars. " For such a large investment, Chen Kexin admits that it is impossible to recover the cost only by relying on the mainland and the China market in Southeast Asia. If you want to make money, you must see the world. According to Chung-Man Hai, a well-known Hong Kong designer who is in charge of the costume props, Huo Yuanjia's costume alone costs 30 million yuan. He once spent 500,000 yuan to build a gold armor for Jet Li, but Jet Li gave it up because it didn't fit.
The film was first released in Chinese mainland and Southeast Asia in 65438+February and 65438+March, and will land in North America and other places in March next year. Chen Kexin is full of confidence in the mainland market, and the box office in China is the most important. "Jet Li's house of flying daggers alone has a gain of1.200 million. We also have Andy Lau and Xu. The warlords starring Andy Lau and Takeshi Kaneshiro was 65.438 billion yuan. Therefore, "warlords" should have a box office of 300 million in the mainland!
