Best Movie Star

Chapter 678: Pattern 0 out

This kind of half-joking, half-serious targeting of the black movement, not everyone can say like Clint Eastwood, if Matthew has accumulated decades in Hollywood, he will stand up and criticize, But now his confidence is still a little lacking.

Besides, in the reality that the proportion of ethnic minorities in theater audiences is constantly increasing, it is in the interests of him, a commercial star, to attach importance to ethnic minorities.

Therefore, regardless of others, Matthew still pursues the previous strategy, letting the three foundations in charge of Amanda continue to provide assistance to black people, minorities and women and children.

Just this month, Matthew, along with Bill Gates and Warren Buffett among the super-rich, was named by the magazine as one of the top ten philanthropists in the United States.

At the same time, many women and children's rights protection organizations in the United States have also listed Matthew as an enthusiastic public welfare figure, and some of them have also made Matthew an honorary director.

In addition, Matthew also announced donations to several well-known charities, totaling millions of dollars in donations.

These are huge boosts to his fame and influence.

The magazine also did an exclusive interview with Matthew.

"It's a shame that a person is still rich when he dies!"

Facing the reporter of the magazine, Matthew said solemnly, "I think that people in the world are stewards to manage the wealth entrusted to them by God. They are not the real owners of wealth, they can't bring it with life, and they can't take it with death. We should donate money to some things that we can, and it is very necessary to help those in need."

He added, "I'm not a fan of wealth, especially when 6 billion people in the world are much poorer than us."

Matthew likes money very much, which he has never denied, but he is also very clear that money can bring a lot of things to a person far beyond money itself.

Some Wall Street investors, including many billionaires, are willing to introduce their other identities in addition to their job positions, especially the trustees of top schools such as Harvard, Yale, Columbia University, or well-known museums, art groups, social director of the organization.

Hearing these titles for the first time, people could not help but be in awe of their academic attainments. These people admitted that this is the honorary title they got after donating money, but they still value it very much.

In America, you can have a lot of money, but you have to give something back, and someone has to notice, or you'll never be a real influencer.

Even many American media believe that generosity is an unwritten tradition of American billionaires, a necessary quality for successful people, a standard for the rich to gain social recognition, and a spiritual demeanor with the ultimate allure.

Of course, the wealthy are keen to donate, which has a lot to do with the US government's policy encouragement. The preferential tax policy is the best example.

When faced with charity and media reporters, even Matthew's limited cultural literacy will say some high-sounding words.

"It is very necessary for us to donate money to help those who are in urgent need." Matthew seems to have really become a philanthropist, "Donation is the most necessary, because no matter which non-profit organization you donate to, this One act in itself satisfies the donor's self-fulfillment needs, allowing them to live for their ideals, their beliefs, and the best image in their hearts. People can see it in the mirror every morning. A self that you want to see, or should see: a responsible citizen, a caring neighbor."

In this day and age, selling character designs is very important. Through years of hard work, Matthew has also established a relatively complete character design for himself outside of Playboy.

In fact, Playboy is nothing, which young rich man is not like this? Society doesn't care about that anymore.

Donors like Matthew almost play with donations, but accepting donors is not easy, and they can also play with donations in a variety of ways.

When communicating with Amanda, Amanda told Matthew a typical case that just happened.

Some time ago, Jim Harbaugh, the former head coach of the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League team, wanted to jump to the football team at the University of Michigan with a high salary. His first-year salary will be 7 million US dollars. The news came out. American colleges and sports are hotly fired. Why does the University of Michigan pay a football coach such a high salary?

In this regard, Amanda explained to Matthew: The reason for poaching famous coaches with high salaries is that if the school's football team wins the game, the over-excited Michigan alumni will generously donate to their alma mater, and these donations amount to It will definitely be several times more than $7 million...

The fame brought by charity has made Matthew gain more attention, and he has also properly promoted the film through various channels.

Compared with those big productions that invest hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, in addition to having more and more book fans, there is indeed a lack of sufficient publicity points.

As the time entered September, a series of affairs related to Matthew came to fruition.

Thanks to his recommendation and help, after three rounds of auditions, Carolina Kerkova got the role of redhead Scarlett, but the salary was only $200,000.

But for Carolina Kirkova at this stage, a female No. 2 in a Hollywood commercial production is more important.

On the night Karolina Kirkova passed the audition, Matthew invited her to visit Horner Manor and staged a night of Beauty and the Beast in the well-prepared gym.

In Carolina Kirkova, he fully released himself.

The result of this night caused Carolina Kerkova to delay reporting to the crew for two full days.

At the same time, the crew has also finalized the other main actors, including Matthew and Sienna Miller, most of the actors will undergo a two-week special military training.

To shoot this type of subject in Hollywood, training before shooting is a must.

On the other hand, Helen Herman ended negotiations with Walt Disney, and Matthew and Disney signed an equity transfer agreement, but the formal transaction will not be completed until the end of the year. Share replacement.

Subsequently, Walt Disney officially announced the transaction, which is also equivalent to an official announcement to acquire Marvel Comics.

Perhaps Matthew, a celebrity shareholder, really played an exemplary role. Many small shareholders of Marvel Comics fell under the offensive of Walt Disney. Although the management of Marvel Comics resisted, they joined a huge entertainment media group. It's not a bad thing for Marvel's development either.

At least Marvel's management didn't refuse to negotiate with Walt Disney.

Almost at the same time, Walt Disney is also promoting the acquisition of George Lucas' Lucasfilm, and Mickey Mouse's huge industrial layout has already revealed clues.

I have to say that Robert Iger looks like a Mickey Mouse who can only smile, but his ability is no worse than his predecessor Michael Eisner, and his work style is gentler and his professional ethics are well-known. Disney is being brought along by him. fast lane.

After the completion of this transaction, Matthew has also benefited a lot. The short-term benefit is that he will become a minority shareholder of Walt Disney. In the long run, the opportunity to invest in Marvel superhero movies will be very rare.

As things stand now, I'm afraid Walt Disney's management won't even think about how far Marvel superhero movies will develop in the future.

It was the Marvel Avengers universe that pushed superhero movies into the commercial mainstream of Hollywood.

Now that Matthew can get a piece of the pie, it can be said that it is very rare.

The first North American box office split of 13 has already arrived at Studio Thirteen.

After more than four months of screening, the film was pulled from major theaters in North America last week, and the North American box office finally stopped at $335.6 million.

At present, the overseas screening has not ended, and the overseas box office has exceeded the 400 million US dollar mark.

The first North American box office share that Matthew received was $20 million, although Paramount Pictures retained the distribution fee and part of the advance promotion and marketing expenses~www.readwn.com~ The amount of the North American box office share that can be obtained in the future Limited, but the share of the film's overseas box office has not been calculated.

From the box office alone, he can recover his $40 million investment and make a profit, not to mention the share of many peripheral income such as DVD, TV rights and online on-demand.

According to estimates by PricewaterhouseCoopers, the $40 million investment could bring him a profit of $35 million to $40 million.

Even if you look at the entire Hollywood and even the US business circle, this is a very profitable investment.

In a world where traditional production can only make 10 percent or less, the profit that a big-selling Hollywood movie can make is truly staggering.

This is also an important reason why we all know that film is a high-risk industry, and so many people make crazy investments.

Usually, a super-selling movie can often make up for the deficit caused by three or four failed movies.

Of course, those who are on the leaderboard are not among them.

Matthew is going to directly invest the proceeds from it. The former is about to start preparations, and the latter also has a specific written plan.

As for another one planned by Marvel Studios, he does not plan to invest.

At the same time, the North American theater tour is gradually approaching the end. The trend of this film is obvious. It has been released for more than two months, and the box office has no explosive power.

At present, the North American box office has just exceeded 300 million US dollars, and the global box office has touched 700 million US dollars.

However, the single-day revenue of the North American market has been below one million for more than a week, and it is not too far from the lower end of North America.

Matthew paid attention to these, and returned to the training of the crew. In the middle, he received an invitation from Lily Collins to accompany her to the finals of American Idol.
