Chapter 55 The pattern needs to be opened (please collect and read)

Bang!

The champagne was shaken violently, and the cork sprayed directly into the sky.

Swish

Warren poured the wine into the cup tower, and applause and cheers suddenly rang out around him.

"Please welcome our great hero!"

Amid the cheers of the crowd, the director and a group of leading actors of "Sharknado" were pushed out, and ribbons and champagne were sprayed on them.

Hahahaha

"How does it feel to be a big star?" Eric teased

Director Anthony Ferrante was excited: "Mr. Eric, don't make fun of me. This is a miracle, and you are the real creator of the miracle, don't you think?"

Yeah!

Everyone cheered again, and the strong woman Bemahadi also laughed rarely: "Eric, say a few words, we are all waiting."

Eric was originally attending the celebration banquet for fun, but seeing the expectant eyes of the employees, he knew what they were thinking.

"The success of Sharknado is inseparable from the efforts of all of us. During Christmas, because the movie was still in theaters, no one received a bonus."

"But I think it's time now. Everyone's year-end bonus will be increased by $10,000. This is my belated holiday blessing!"

Money is always the most attractive thing. More than 50 employees of AK Films were instantly excited. I don't know who proposed to throw Eric into the air. The atmosphere of the celebration banquet reached its peak.

After accompanying everyone for a while, several people came to a relatively quiet place to discuss the next development.

The first is naturally the sequel to Sharknado. After becoming a hit, this bad movie has formed its own unique influence, but there is also a problem, that is Ryan Reynolds.

He is now the second male lead of Transformers. He will surely soar in the future. I am afraid he may not continue to star in Sharknado. After all, no actor wants to have a big bad movie on his resume.

The eyes of several people fell on Ryan Reynolds. If the male lead was changed, the viewing experience of the movie would inevitably be discounted.

"Ryan, are you still going to act in Sharknado 2? If you don't want to act, just say so, no one will blame you."

Who would have thought that Ryan Reynolds would actually grin and say, "Of course I will continue to act. I am the leading actor. Are you going to replace me?"

Warren was a little surprised: "Aren't you worried about your reputation? Sharknado has the strength to compete for the title of the worst movie now. Just go to IMDB and you will be shocked by its rating."

Ryan Reynolds didn't care: "It doesn't matter. Just like Eric said, the worst is art. Ed Wood's movies are also highly praised. I think Sharknado is such a movie.

"You don't know, since the movie was released, I have really felt what a big star is like. When I walk on the street, fans will ask me for autographs and take photos from time to time. I have never had this experience in more than ten years since I entered the industry."

"Let me tell you, Sharknado will be my masterpiece. As long as it is being filmed, I will continue to act in it, forever! ”

Ryan Reynolds’ attitude made everyone feel relieved. He is indeed a grateful person. Eric has not deceived him and has given him too much. He knows very well what to do.

However, as his fame grows, his treatment will also increase. When "Sharknado 2" starts filming, Ryan Reynolds will be the only actor who enjoys dividend treatment.

Taking a sip of red wine, Bemahadi said: "Then "Sharknado 2" should still be scheduled for December, and we will maintain one movie per year in the future."

"Wouldn't it be better to schedule it in the summer? Anyway, the movie is shot very quickly. I see that there are many voices on the Internet looking forward to the second movie." Warren gave a different opinion.

But this time Eric did not support him.

"Warren, movies have a sense of freshness and fatigue. The second movie is released in just half a year. The market potential cannot be nurtured. One movie a year is already the limit. We must give the audience time to recover."

"But what about the period in between? It can be foreseen that the company's funds will be sufficient in the near future, and we always need to do something. ”

“Do I need to teach you this? Have you forgotten the original intention of establishing AK Films? You can start by copying MGM movies.”

“Now Saw is very popular, you can make Axe or Scythe.”

“MGM has Red Dragon and Hannibal, you can make Blue Dragon and Hannibal Tree; there is also the 007 series, you can make a 001 series, pay attention to the similarity between the number ‘1’ and ‘7’ printed on the cover.”

“By the way, Legally Blonde 2 will also be released this year, you can make Legally Blonde 2 first, and release it earlier, the plot is about a lawyer and a beautiful woman falling in love.”

“Spider-Man is also very popular, so we can make Fly Man and Dragonfly Man, anyway, just do it boldly. "

This speech made everyone's eyes light up. The pattern has been opened up!

Eric added: "Of course, this kind of purely commercial bad movies or copycat fraud movies should be made, but we can't fall into this vicious circle completely. Low-cost B-level movies can't be let go. "

"After "Sharknado" became famous, AK Films has also gained some fame. There will definitely be screenwriters and directors who will come to promote it. If you think it has potential, buy it. "

"In addition, I have a script outline in my hand, called "The Purge Plan". You can find a screenwriter to fill in the content.

Don't mess with this script like Sharknado. The cost should be controlled within 3 million US dollars. It is the focus of AK Films in the first half of the year."

After arranging the company's affairs, Eric pulled Ryan Reynolds aside again: "Ryan, you have to be prepared. Join the group for training in the next few days."

Hearing this, Ryan Reynolds was excited: "Is "Transformers" finally going to start filming?"

"Well, the start time is set for early February, but the actors must first join the group for training for half a month, especially you. You have a lot of fighting scenes. I hope you can present the best effect. Don't tell me that you want to use a stand-in when the time comes."

Ryan Reynolds patted his chest: "Don't worry, I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and I will never let you down!"

A day later, Eric boarded a flight to New York. This time the destination was not Hasbro, but JPMorgan Chase.

Not long after walking out of the terminal hall, he was looking around, but a silver-white Panamera suddenly stopped in front of him.

"Get in the car!" A woman's voice sounded from the driver's seat.

Eric opened the car door without any doubt.

"Do you smoke?"

"I'm not interested in nicotine."

"Do you mind if I smoke?"

"It's your freedom, ma'am."

The accelerator was stepped on, and the Panamera started again.

"Where are you going to take me?"

"Hotel!"
