Chapter 25 Meeting Director Wen Muye

"I don't know if you have any opinions on this script?"

Director Wen Muye asked Lin Ye.

Lin Ye had read the script just now, and had a new understanding of "I'm Not the God of Medicine".

It is almost the same as the previous life, it is based on a true story, and the prototype of the story is Cheng Yong.

Lin Ye said without hesitation: "The script is very good, and the actors are well chosen. I like it very much and I am willing to participate in it."

Wen Muye heard this and said with a smile: "After the shooting of this film, the plan is to release it on the Lantern Festival. Because it is not a purely commercial film, it will definitely not be able to compete with other blockbuster films, so our cost investment is not much, only 1000 million. Actors are paid a very small part of that, what do you expect to be paid?"

Not much investment?

Lin Ye was a little surprised.

After all, this movie sold 30 billion at the box office in the previous life!

"Director, why are you so unconfident in it?"

Lin Ye couldn't help asking back.

"It's not a question of confidence. The film market is determined by the audience. Such themes have never been popular in our country. It is imperative to reduce investment."

"If you are willing to participate, I can only give you a salary of [-] yuan."

Wen Muye was very straightforward and directly quoted his price.

He originally thought that Lin Ye would be so disappointed that he rejected him.

Unexpectedly, instead of refusing, Lin Ye proposed an idea that surprised him.

"Director, I don't want a paycheck."

"Huh? No pay?"

The latter is a bit confusing.

Lin Ye explained: "Can I ask for dividends?"

"Dividend?"

Wen Muye was even more confused now.

There is no actor in this world who would ask for a movie dividend instead of a paycheck.

Because actors can't control the direction of the script, they can't control the audience's preferences, and they can't judge whether the film will be finalized and whether it can pass the review with the old men from the Bureau of Radio, Film and Television.

Instead of salary, dividends are required. How much confidence in the script will this request be made?
If the movie is released at that time, the box office results are not satisfactory, or it is not released for various reasons, then the actor will not get a penny.

Wen Muye feels at this moment that Lin Ye is not a smart actor.

Lin Ye didn't care about his thoughts, but said again: "Director, if possible, I only want 1% dividend."

1%.

If the box office of a movie is 5000 million, then one percent is 50.

If the movie is lucky enough to sell well and reach a box office of 100 million, then Lin Ye will get [-] million yuan in dividends.

Wen Muye was really surprised by his ambition.

Moreover, he doesn't think "I'm Not the God of Medicine" has the potential to break through [-] million paychecks.

Immediately, he wanted to immediately agree to Lin Ye's request.

"I think it's okay, but I need to discuss it with the investors and ask their opinions."

Wen Muye is very thoughtful, whether it is making movies or dealing with commercial figures, he is very comfortable, and he is a role model among the younger generation of directors.

"no problem."

Lin Ye nodded.

If the investors knew about his request, they would probably nod immediately.

For investors, actors don't need remuneration but dividends, which is tantamount to helping them bear the risk of investment failure.

Moreover, the dividend that Lin Ye asked for was not high, only one percent.

If the film's final box office is only tens of millions, then Lin Ye's pay dividends will be 10,000+ yuan.

Moreover, the total investment in this film is only about 1000 million. Their goal is to keep their capital and not lose money. They don't think there is any chance to compete in the Lantern Festival.

Director Wen Muye quickly communicated with several investors, and their opinions were the same as Lin Ye's guess. Not only did they readily agree, they even asked Wen Muye to discuss cooperation with other leading actors in accordance with this dividend remuneration.

It was only then that Wen Muye realized that the investors were eager for the actors to help them take risks together.

Lin Ye took the lead, which made him want to cheat those actor friends now...

"Lin Ye, it's good for you to have confidence, but for you, it's better to get a dividend than just ask for a stable salary. Do you want to think about it again? I can tell them that you have changed your mind."

Wen Muye treats actors like friends, which is why he is completely different from other directors in the circle.

Whether it is a new actor or an old actor, it is the same in his eyes.

"There's no need for Director Wen, I'll pay dividends when I think about it."

"alright."

After Lin Ye had said that, he didn't say anything more.

So Wen Muye said: "We will start the machine next week."

"Okay, then I will prepare well during this time."

"Okay, see you on set next week."

Director Wen Muye paid the bill, then went out and got into his big G car. Lin Ye was sitting in the dining room, and through the transparent glass, he saw a beautiful woman greeting his co-pilot with a smiling face.

Lin Ye was a little envious.

"When will I be able to drive the big G? Is there a beautiful woman in the co-pilot?"

Forget it, it is better to fill your stomach first than to dream.

Lin Ye immediately picked up the chopsticks and started cooking.

Just now I was so busy chatting with Director Wen Muye that I didn't even have time to take a bite of the meal.

I have to say that the restaurants in this magic city are really high-end. It is true that the menu prices are expensive, but they are also really delicious!

It took half an hour for a meal before Lin Ye patted his stomach in satisfaction and got up to leave.

After returning to the hotel, Lin Ye took a hot bath, and then got ready for a good night's sleep.

As soon as I lay down after taking a shower, my phone buzzed and vibrated.

"Hey."

"Lin Ye, have you arrived in the magic capital yet?"

It turned out to be a call from Gong Zhenyu, the producer of Aiqiyi.

"Yes, just arrived at night."

"Then come here for a sip of tea? Let's talk about the show by the way."

"Now?"

Lin Ye was a little surprised. She just lay down and was going out again?
Mr. Gong's voice on the other end of the phone was excited, and there seemed to be other people beside him: "Yes, it's still early, send me your location, and I'll ask the driver to pick you up."

"Okay, then I will send you on WeChat."

Lin Ye hung up the phone, called up the WeChat page, and sent him the address of the hotel.

After posting, Lin Ye glanced at the time...it's already eleven o'clock in the evening, so it's still early?
Is it true that the concept of time of the bosses is reversed?

But already agreed to others, Lin Ye will naturally not miss the appointment.

Dressed neatly, Lin Ye took the elevator downstairs.

In less than 5 minutes, a black Mercedes drove into the entrance of the hotel.

This is already the fourth Mercedes-Benz that Lin Ye has seen in the past 5 minutes...

There are also many other brands of cars, such as Maserati, Porsche, Land Rover and BMW coming in and out everywhere.

"Are there so many rich people in Modu?"

Lin Ye quickly began to fantasize, is it possible to sell a brick on the road in Shanghai for 2 yuan?
