323 [Golden Rice Bowl]

After returning to Hollywood, Ye Jin actively prepared for the filming of "Star Wars".

Not only for himself, but also for Lin Qingxia.

Lin Qingxia's English level can be said to be very poor. She had read the script of "Star Wars" before, and Ye Jin helped her translate it into Chinese.

But when filming in Hollywood, of course, you can’t speak Chinese anymore, but you still have to read English lines. For her who is not familiar with English, it is already difficult to just speak lines in English.

What's more, you have to recite a long English line, which is undoubtedly a huge challenge for Lin Qingxia, who suffers from dyslexia.

Therefore, during this period, Lin Qingxia stayed in the hotel every day, recited lines with Ye Jin, practiced dialogues, and learned English to improve her English level.

And this kind of boring life and long life naturally made Lin Qingxia very uncomfortable. You must know that she didn't have such a demerit when she was in school.

"Brother Jin, will this movie really become popular?" Lin Qingxia asked Ye Jin in confusion, "Is it worth it if I work so hard?"

"Of course it's worth it! Would I even deliberately lie to you?" Ye Jin nodded, "Tell you, I have worked very hard to turn you into the heroine in this drama, and I also took a lot of risks for it.

If this movie becomes popular, you will never be poor in your life with this movie. Don’t be in a blessing without knowing it!”

...

The "Star Wars" series was one of the greatest movies in film history in the past. Not only did it have a good box office and reputation, but it also became a part of mainstream culture.

Its status in America, just like the status of "The Four Great Classics" in the mainland, has penetrated into the cultural genes and influenced generations of people.

A successful work like this has extremely high copyright value. In addition to the frequent replays of TV stations, online video platforms will also purchase copyrights, and in addition, the sales of video tapes and DVDs have been continuously.

The actors enjoy copyright sharing. Every replay of Star Wars, every disc and video tape sold by the actors will receive a portion of the royalties.

If an actor is lucky enough to participate in a popular movie or a popular drama, even if he is not the protagonist, this royalty sharing can support him to live a prosperous life.

For example, Robert Pine, the father of the male lead in "Wonder Woman", has never played the protagonist in Hollywood in his life, and always plays various second- and third-tier roles.

But it is these roles that allow him to receive countless pink checks every year. Some checks cannot even buy a piece of candy, but some checks contain a lot of money.

He used these checks to help his daughter and son pay the university tuition. You should know that the tuition fees of the Amerika higher education institutions are quite high. Leonard in "The Big Bang Theory" is already a well-known experimental physicist, but after graduation, he still has to pay in installments to pay his tuition for many years. There are also many female students who are willing to find sugar      daddy.

Zeng Feng, a actor from Hong Kong, once played a North Korean general in "007: Die Again". The role is not too heavy, but he himself revealed that in a few years after the filming of the movie, he still received checks from Hollywood every year, which made him sigh at the professionalism of Hollywood.

...

In addition, popular movies with extremely high influence such as Star Wars have a large number of fans with extremely high loyalty. Therefore, various nostalgic events are often held, such as the 20th anniversary of the release, the 30th anniversary, the re-screening of Star Wars, etc.

This kind of event often requires the invitation to participate, and such invitations will naturally be necessary to pay for the car. If you participate a few times a year, your life will be safe and worry-free.

Just like the movie "Shocking the Milky Way", it tells the funny story of a few outdated TV actors who relied on the popular TV series more than ten years ago, walking around and participating in various movie fans' commemoration activities. However, they were really involved in the funny story of the interstellar war...

Lin Qingxia acted in this movie. If it is assumed that this movie is as popular as her previous life, then after she acts in this series of movies, she will basically be able to have food and clothing. By relying solely on royalties and escaping, she can live a free and easy life. Not to mention, she is likely to become a generation of red stars, and she will make more money.

Therefore, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which is equivalent to a [golden rice bowl] that many people can’t get even if they want.

"Well, I understand." Lin Qingxia nodded and continued to work hard.

...

In addition to preparing for Star Wars, Ye Jin also met with his agent.

"Ye, why don't we leave the project such a good one to us for caa?" Michael Orwiz said regretfully.

As far as he knows, Star Wars invests a total of up to eight million US dollars, and it is a medium-cost science fiction movie. If such a project is operated by Caa, it will cost 5% of it, which will cost 400,000 US dollars.

"This is how it is. Lucasfilm has been preparing for the "Star Wars" project for three years, but unfortunately the script hit me the car..." Ye Jin explained briefly.

"So that's it." Roland Berkins nodded, "It's really strange that the script will look so much."

"Yes, I'm very surprised, too." Ye Jin smiled.

"Your script is registered before him, and he has been preparing for it for three years, so you can bid as much as you like." Long Mayer said with a smile.

"Yes, I don't know what kind of offer you are looking for?" Michael Orwiz asked curiously.

Ye Jin then mentioned three conditions himself. First, he wanted to invest in the "Star Wars" project and account for 90% of the peripheral product development income; second, he won the copyright of the script of "Star Wars" and owned the entire IP; third, he and Lin Qingxia played the male and female lead role together...

After hearing the first two conditions, Michael Ovez, Roland Berkins and others didn't say anything.

It is very necessary to take down an IP that is worthwhile before it is officially operated. Ye Jin did this very well, and they also support him in doing so.

But they had different opinions on the last point.

"Ye, the two Chinese are the protagonists of the movie together. To be honest, they are a little risky." Roland Berkins pondered for a moment.

"Yes, ethnic minorities will always be rejected in America." Long Mayer nodded, "It is already very lucky that you can become famous by "Dragon Hard Boy". But you cannot be lucky forever. If you fail, you must know that the consequences are serious."

"Ye, I think you should be careful." Michael Ovez also suggested after considering it, "It is better not to introduce too many ethnic groups in this movie."
