Twenty million? And plus dividends
Even Robert Downey Jr. starred in "Iron Man 3", in fact, this is the treatment. You must know that the production cost of "Iron Man 3" is 200 million US dollars; while the production cost of "Gravity" is only 100 million US dollars, not to mention, the latter's technical support also costs more. Obviously, Alfonso I don't know how much balance is left in the crew's bank account.
However, for a director like Alfonso who is devoted to his work, telling these budget figures is no different from a book from heaven.
The point is, Alfonso is not joking, with a sincere expression on his face. Even though Renly knew that he was very sincere, he couldn't help laughing, "Alfonso, thank you for your kindness. But, I think, you shouldn't have the right to make decisions." He didn't explain and negotiate in detail, just chuckled. one sentence.
Alfonso was also stunned for a while, and then he came back to his senses. A restrained and shy smile appeared on his face. He muttered and tried to explain, but he couldn't speak, and he was a little embarrassed.
It's really interesting to do so. After all this time in Hollywood, Renly really never saw, "20 million pay, wow, thank you, I feel like a king now, does that mean that the next stage of shooting, I It will be extremely hard, you know, as much as you get, you have to give?"
Alfonso smiled awkwardly, seeing through his true intentions.
However, Renly didn't seem to mind, and Alfonso immediately recovered, "Yes, I will tell David my thoughts and opinions later, and try to benefit you as much as possible." Renly is willing to Nodding to join, this is really too rare, he still feels unreal.
David Heyman, producer of the "Harry Potter" series and provider of tickets for the Almeida Theatre. He's the lead producer on "Gravity," on behalf of Warner Bros.
It is worth noting that he is British, and the series adaptation rights of "Harry Potter" are in his hands. At the beginning, he had a discerning eye and successfully tapped the market potential of the series. So, even Warner Bros., they have always maintained a friendly attitude in the process of working with David.
In addition to this, David has also produced works such as "I Am Legend", "Mr. Good" and "Paddington Bear". His contacts in the UK and Europe are definitely top-notch; his style is more low-key than Harvey Weinstein, Jerry Bruckheimer and others, and he can be regarded as one of the most representative gold medal producers in the UK.
"Do you want to read the script?" Alfonso returned to the topic he was good at, "Your opinion just now is very important. I think maybe after reading the script, you can have more inspiration. We can go into the discussion. By the way, you mentioned that movie, 'The Tree of Life'? Was the cameraman Emmanuel Lubezki? He mentioned working with Terrence Malick before. This is the work, is it this one?"
Emmanuel Lubezki, who worked with Alfonso on "Son of Man," and "Your Mom, Too." He is also Mexican, and among the three Mexicans, Emmanuel has the best personal relationship with Alfonso.

"Yes." After Renly gave an affirmative answer, Alfonso suddenly came to his senses and nodded in affirmation, "Then I know which one it is. I only watched the trailer before, and I haven't had time to watch it yet. The whole work."
Conversation continues.
After being fully engaged, Alfonso was a little carried away, gushing about the entire plan of "Gravity", from the conception stage, to script creation, to technical research, and finally back to the character itself.
After the brunch, Renly and Alfonso continued their conversation over the aroma of a cup of coffee. Excited, Renly also found several books on philosophy, life, and astronomy from the bookshelf, and took Matthew to discuss them together - so Paul, who was not interested in these contents, became a nanny.
If it weren't for lunch time, Meadows, Tom, and Bill would all be starving. I'm afraid the conversation between Renly and Alfonso wouldn't be over yet.
"Renly, if I have any ideas later, can I send you an email and we can talk?" Alfonso said proactively before leaving, "You know, because all the core of this movie is in the On the protagonist, I need to…”
Aware of Alfonso's anxious explanation, Renly chuckled softly, which made Alfonso's words involuntarily stop. "No problem. But my response may not be too timely, and you can contact Nathan if there is an urgent matter."
"Of course!" Alfonso nodded understandingly. In the next few months, "Les Miserables" will still be Renly's top priority, and "Gravity" must stand back; moreover, the intensity of the performances at the Almeida Theater And density, by no means easy.
The problem is, Alfonso is a very sincere, earnest, and passionate personality. After that, an average of five emails per day, with a consistent e-mail to Renly.
On the peak day, I sent eighteen emails from morning to night, eloquently narrating my ideas about the plot and characters, and then overturned, rewritten, overturned, and rewritten. At the end of the day, Alfonso's son Jonas sent an email, "We discussed it and the original version seems to be the best, what do you think?"
In this regard, Renly is a casual and lazy person, and even when he sees the reminder on the application software and the e-mail numbers climb one by one, he is indifferent, and he does not have the obsessive-compulsive disorder of having to clear all those numbers. So, he watched the number of unread emails on the mobile application software rise all the way to "35", and still let it go.
However, this was a torture for Matthew.
Later, after Renly finished the whole day's performance, Matthew simply sorted out all the emails, with clear structure and clear ideas, and compiled all the contents of the emails into a list for Renly to read; after reading, Renly proposed his own Matthew's thoughts and opinions are sorted out, and then an email reply is sent.
Communication is also very smooth.
The seemingly simple script turns out to be the most difficult. Because the content is simple, it does not mean that the kernel is simple.
After seeing off Alfonso, Renly greeted a large group of guests in the house and prepared to leave the house for a meal.
Tom Holland couldn't help being stunned, "Aren't we, aren't we at home, dining...?"
"No, we're not dining at home." Renly said with a smile, "Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."
For aristocrats, entertaining guests at home is not an easy task. Even for a small private banquet, the ceremony is extremely grand. Generally speaking, it is rare to entertain friends at home, even if it is a friend, the relationship Still estranged; of course, for young people like them, such rules don't apply long ago, but eating at home is still extremely troublesome—
Cooking is never an easy task.
Bill Skarsgard and Tom Holland drooped their shoulders directly, like a deflated balloon; while Meadow Ryan, who was standing beside him, was straightforward, "I thought you would cook by yourself. Well. I'm still looking forward to having a taste of your craftsmanship."
"Aha." Renly sighed softly, but said without further explanation, "I'll go upstairs to get a coat, and we can go."
Looking at the confusion and puzzlement on the faces of the three little guys, Matthew Shi Shiran explained, "Trust me, you won't want to try."
Matthew had known Renly for so long, and the only time he saw Renly cook was at Eton.
That time, Renly nearly burned down the entire kitchen, and all the pots and cookware was destroyed, it was like the end of the world - in fact, the neighbors called the police, they thought there was a fire, and the firefighters rushed to Arrived at the scene, fortunately, no damage was caused.
food? There is indeed, if a piece of black charcoal that cannot identify the raw material of the ingredients can be counted. To be honest, Matthew is not sure if swallowing it will cause food poisoning. Andre bravely tried a mouthful, his expression was wonderful.
"When you say that, I'm even more curious." Meadows couldn't wait to ask, Tom and Bill nodded again and again, and then all three cast their eyes towards Paul. Compared with the iceberg-faced Matthew, Paul is much more cordial and pleasant.
Paul raised his hands regretfully and smiled, "Sorry, I can't help. So far, I haven't tasted it either. But, I believe Matthew, Matthew is an honest person, right?"
Matthew looked at Paul blankly, and after a pause, he said, "This is the first time I've heard someone use 'honest' to describe a lawyer."
shark. This is how Europeans and Americans describe lawyers. Sharks in suits. Except for a small number of civil rights lawyers, most lawyers are villains who eat people and don't spit out bones to ordinary people.
Paul spread his hands and smiled innocently, "What's wrong, I've met you a few times, and you've always been friendly."
Matthew's eyes twitched lightly, "Why, do you want me to show the demeanor of a lawyer?" The calm tone revealed a hint of coldness, which made people shudder.
Paul showed his neat white teeth - like a shark, "Hopefully I won't have the day when I need a lawyer." Such a sincere and friendly answer made Matthew feel weak, so he turned his head towards the door "Did you drive here? If not, we'd better call a taxi in advance now."
"Matthew, lunch at the Riverside Restaurant." Renly's voice came from upstairs.
"Riverside? Are you sure? Don't you like their appetizers and desserts?" Matthew responded loudly.
"It's okay, just go there," said Renly cheerfully. "You can give Michael-Roux a call ahead of time and ask about the menu for today's lunch. I think it should be good."
"Are you sure you don't go to Gordon-Ramsay's?"
"Let's go by the river. It's cleaner in Bray."
Paul and others standing in the hall: blank faces.
