My life has a narration

Chapter 634 Refusal to cooperate
In a word, it hit Teng Hua's lungs directly.

Yeah, how much are you going to pay these actors?
At present, the salary of actors in China can be described as a hundred schools of thought, one is higher than the other, especially the popular artists, small fresh meat, regardless of their lack of acting skills, but the salary is tens of millions, how much investment is enough to cause such a disaster? !
On the other hand, in Wang Fan's movie, most of the money was spent on special effects, and the actors' remuneration was reduced to a very low level.

It’s less than 10,000+, like Uncle Da’s, it’s only 20, and there are even many who were fooled, especially Jingzi, who didn’t give a single salary, relying on Wang Fan’s old face. Otherwise, he wouldn't be called a beggar director.

Of course, now that he's making money, Wang Fan is planning to pay some old guys a supplementary salary, but these are all for later.

If the actor's remuneration occupies a considerable proportion of the investment, then the director's influence on the crew will be reduced, and it will also affect the quality of the film.

Especially the sci-fi genre, if there is no money for special effects, is it still called sci-fi?Can martial arts films without fighting scenes still be called martial arts?Without a gunfight scene, can it be called a gangster movie?
You can't put the cart before the horse when making a movie, and say that it's to boost the box office. Isn't that funny?

If the quality of the movie is not good, how much box office can be driven by actors alone?

In fact, he didn't care about this kind of thing before, but now he can't help but talk. After all, you asked me to invest in you. What I get is money, not newspapers, so you can burn it casually.

"The remuneration has not yet been decided, but we have indeed negotiated the candidates for the actors, and it is not easy to change. Besides, brother, let's put it bluntly, it is enough to make money, why don't you care about those things, don't you think? !"

Obviously, Director Teng has not given up and wants to persuade. Although there are a lot of people who want to invest in sci-fi movies, taking advantage of the popularity of "The Wandering Earth", he is not short of investment, but well, he still Want to get Su Qing's investment.

One is that he knows that Su Qing is capable of investing huge sums of money, and the other is that Su Qing has a precedent of investing in "The Wandering Earth", which is a good point of publicity.

Even relying on the relationship between Su Qing and Wang Fan, they could even invite them over to give guidance at that time, which has a lot of benefits anyway.

[The remuneration of the actors in "Magic City Fortress" is nearly one-third of the total investment, plus the waste of various departments, small leaders' food and cards, filming consumption, and finally the funds for special effects are very little few.

The random adaptation of the lines has been complained about. 】

Good guy, listening to the narration prompt, Su Qing called it a good guy in his heart, if he knew it was a bad movie just now, but now he realizes that it is bad in all aspects. Speaking of it, it has something to do with actors It's really not big, after all, it's the director's decision, and actors sometimes can't help themselves.

The actor's remuneration can account for such a large proportion, and this movie is still good, so there is a ghost, and it's not an urban romance movie, no special effects, just good acting skills and a good script, and the effect can be performed.

This is a sci-fi movie, and it is all about special effects. What are special effects?Simply put, it is money, and if you have money, you will have special effects.

In this regard, Su Qing nodded: "This is indeed the truth. Although I don't care whether I make money or not, I don't want to lose money. According to what Director Teng told me, I really can't see where this movie has the possibility of making money. , so I still don't get involved, of course, I still wish Director Teng a good film, slap me in the face, and wish you a big box office success in advance!"

Su Qing's tone was very fast, and he hardly gave him a chance to persuade him again, so he directly concluded the matter.

The straightforward refusal made Director Teng and the two unable to react. They were stunned for a while, and finally smiled awkwardly.

"It should be, it should be, it's a pity that I can't cooperate with my brother this time, it's okay, since my brother doesn't like this script, then I will come to my brother when I have a better script."

"Of course, I also welcome Director Teng to take care of my business!" Su Qing nodded and smiled, speaking very politely.

Tang Nan on the side was a little embarrassed, but he was relieved to see Su Qing's last polite appearance. After all, it was a step down for Director Teng.

"Come, come, drink, drink, I'm the host today, eat and drink!" Tang Nan stood up and poured wine for several people.

Soon the atmosphere in the private room recovered a bit, but the slight embarrassment still existed.

In half an hour, Teng Hua and Wang Tao said they had something to do and got up to leave. Tang Nan naturally got up to see them off.

"Brother, something is wrong with you today?" Wang Fan couldn't help laughing as they were the only two in the private room while Tang Nan was sending Teng Hua off.

"There's nothing wrong with this. It's just that I didn't like their script. Although I don't care if I make money or not, I definitely don't want to lose money! Brother, do you think their movie can be made?"

Su Qing smiled and raised a glass of wine and asked.

In this regard, the two people, one big and one small, looked at each other, then looked at each other with a smile, and drank it all in one gulp.

It's not that he doesn't drink, but he doesn't like to drink with those two people. Of course, there are also hints from the narration that his preconceived ideas have affected him.

"To be honest, even though you are not an insider, my brother, your comment just now really hit the point. The core of sci-fi movies is sci-fi. Romance can be embellished, but it must not occupy too many scenes.

The second is the arrangement of funds. Sci-fi films burn money, and you can’t save money on special effects. As for actors’ remuneration, it’s not that you can’t pay high prices, as long as you can attract enough investment, don’t be stingy on special effects.

But the domestic market is so big, and the box office is more than 50 billion, which is the sky. To put it simply, there will be an upper limit for investment, because once the investment is too large, even if the box office is good, it will still reduce the benefits. "

Wang Fan completely agrees with him. As for traffic artists without acting skills?There are also a few newcomers in his crew, isn't that all right?
But the main thing is, you can't let traffic artists without acting skills become the protagonists and take on most of the scenes, they can't hold back.

In "The Wandering Earth", there are indeed many powerful actors in the lineup, which is naturally possible, but just now when Teng Hua said about the actors in their crew, Wang Fan listened to it, and the difference is too far, no one can hold the lineup people.

Obviously, the styles of the two directors are different. Wang Fan puts treasure on the plot, characterization, and special effects production, while Teng Hua wants to put treasure on the leading role, using the popularity of the leading role to drive the box office. The current popularity of science fiction films naturally has a lot of room for manipulation.

Because such operations have been common in the domestic market in the past two years, and there are many people who make money, it cannot be said that Director Teng has such an idea because he has a problem with his cognition.

"Ha, you two are still drinking, especially you, Su Qing, you are too disrespectful to my sister today!"

At this moment, Tang Nan pushed open the door and entered, and saw the two people who were drinking at a glance. He was out of breath, took three steps at a time, grabbed Su Qing's ear and yelled.

"Hiss~~~ It hurts, it hurts, my ears are about to fall off, I'm going to die!"

Seeing his appearance, Tang Nan gave a chuckle, then waved his hands and spat:

"Tell me, what did you think just now, didn't you want to set up a film and television investment company? Why did you offend people as soon as you came up?"

Su Qing: "It's not that I offend them, it's that they are too good"

Two people:.
