NBA: I'm really not a point guard god

"Is it really that easy to make a movie?"

In the cigar room at Ronny Manor.

Barkley and Jordan are enjoying a moment of leisure.

Suddenly, Barkley asked.

Barkley himself has made films.

Even more than Jordan's shot.

Those movies didn't bring Barkley a lot of money, though.

Jordan has a "Space Jam".

Although Barkley himself also participated in the show.

But Jordan is the protagonist of the film, and he can also participate in the film's dividends.

That movie is said to have grossed nearly $3 million worldwide.

In addition, there is income from video tapes.

Until now, Jordan can still receive a check from the film company.

"Why do you ask that?"

"Do you want to make a movie too?"

Jordan was a little weird.

My good friend just went out to answer a phone call, and it became like this when he came back.

It seems to have heard some terrible news.

If you want to talk about the blockbuster movie released recently, there is only "Lord of the Rings".

Jordan watched it too.

But at this time, Jordan has no time to go to the cinema.

But that's nothing.

Through connections, Zhou Yao got the DVD in advance.

Last night, I watched it in the private theater of Lonny Manor.

It's still worse than watching it on the big screen.

But I have to say, it's a really good movie.

Zhou Yao had also received an invitation to attend the premiere, which was sent by Liv Tyler herself.

But the premiere is on December 12.

There was still a game against the Eagles on the second day, so it was impossible for Zhou Yao to make a special trip to Los Angeles for this.

It is said that Zhou Yao gave the invitation letter to O'Neill and Kobe.

The Lakers happened to not be playing that day.

I just don't know if these two are really going.

To be honest, the thought of these two going to the premiere together really makes one shudder.

After all, it's no secret that these two dislike each other.

Back to this blockbuster.

This kind of movie, although it is only the first week of release.

But if it really wants to create a box office miracle, it seems reasonable.

But is this really worthy of Barkley's emotion?

Everyone is a professional basketball player.

Although the wages of myself and Barkley have not been high in the past two years.

But counting the endorsement contract, he earned no less than those movie stars.

Why feel emotional here.

Barkley also realized that Jordan had obviously misunderstood what he meant.

"This week's box office champion has been confirmed to be "The Lord of the Rings."

"But guess who No.2 is?"

Barkley asked mysteriously on purpose.

"How could I know that."

"Now, Charles, don't be fooled!"

Jordan was somewhat impatient.

He was just curious why his old friend suddenly had such a relationship with the movie box office.

Suddenly, Jordan thought of a movie.

And Barkley mentioned it before.

"Could it be "Chef Ao's Food Paradise"?"

"Isn't that a low-budget movie?"

"I remember Zhou Yao said that the production cost is less than 50 US dollars. The publicity and distribution funds are also pitifully small."

Jordan made serious movies.

The original "Space Jam" did not cost less.

"You guessed it right, Shaquille just called to show off!"

As he spoke, Barkley casually opened the notebook on the side and asked Jordan to read the email that O'Neal had just sent.

That's the box office chart for the week.

It is true that as soon as "The Lord of the Rings" came out, other films shunned and avoided its edge.

Only "Chef Ao's Gourmet Paradise" is still firmly in the second place.

According to O'Neill, the box office is slightly lower than last week, but it is also the smallest decline among all movies.

The weekly box office is nothing.

The total box office has exceeded 9000 million US dollars.

O'Neal got a maximum salary contract.

This season's salary is $2143 million.

And now, the movie alone now gives O'Neill more than 900 million dividends.

Kobe can also get more than 90.

And the film's box office continues to rise.

And that's just the North American box office.

And the next movie will be released.

O'Neill will also get a share of the DVD.

On the phone, O'Neill almost yelled excitedly.

"do you know?"

"I asked my friends in the film industry."

"When this movie is released, it may have a global box office of more than 2 million U.S. dollars."

Doesn't that mean that the income from movie dividends may exceed O'Neill's salary.

Kobe can also get at least 200 million.

Barkley had heard of it.

Movie shooting is very easy.

In addition to constantly teaching O'Neill some cooking skills, he basically finished the work while playing.

The total shooting period is only 3 weeks.

Kobe only missed his face at the end of the movie.

There was not even half a day of shooting time.

So much money can be made so easily.

No wonder Barkley was so surprised.

But it's not surprising to think about it.

This time the whole team came to Charlotte early, and Zhou Yao paid for all the expenses.

Now that I think about it, the movie is an efficient cash cow.

It's no wonder that Zhou Yao spent a lot of money, but didn't even blink her eyes.

"If you're really interested, why don't you just ask Zhou Yao."

"He can help Shaquille make movies."

"Anyway, you are still right with him now."

"And don't you usually get along very well?"

Watching Barkley envy and hate there, Jordan couldn't help reminding.

Jordan himself had relatively little interest in making this kind of film.

……

Barkley is still struggling there.

O'Neill has already called Zhou Yao.

"Hey, brother!"

"I didn't expect what you said was true!"

"Such a movie makes so much money."

"To be honest, you were only willing to pay a little hard work back then."

"I also think you're a little petty."

"Looking at it now, I was right when I heard what you said."

"Hahaha!"

"Walking in Beverly Hills now, those big stars look at me with wrong eyes!"

"Many of them are paid less than I am!"

"How about it, is there any filming plan for this summer?"

O'Neill couldn't be happier.

At the beginning, he would agree to Zhou Yao, but the reason is that the two of them got along very well, so they became friends.

And he's having a good time himself.

It's just that I didn't expect to make money just for fun.

For a moment.

O'Neal even wondered if he should stop playing basketball altogether.

Being a movie star can make a lot of money.

And it's not that hard.

Of course, O'Neill still has self-knowledge, and this kind of thinking is only worth a moment.

"Okay!"

"I actually have a script here, which is the sequel to "Chef Ao's Food Paradise"."

"However, are you interested in signing the brokerage contract directly to my company?"

"There are many benefits!"

Zhou Yao is in a good mood.

Compared with O'Neill, he got the box office report card earlier.

He had expected that the box office would be good.

But it will be so good, it still exceeds Zhou Yao's expectation.

And all this is thanks to the special task given by the previous system...
