You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 21 Loong Title
Dorothy asked "Have you got a plan?"

Wang Quan's answer was, "Not yet, it's just a script. You know me well, and it can be written in as little as a week."

Dorothy nodded, Wang Quan is indeed a fast shooter, and she has the most say in this.

"Then let's give our company a famous name now!" Dorothy said with pride.

"I have a proposal," Wang Quan said, "we have the same birthday, right?"

Dorothy, "You mean, just 'Same Birthday Pictures'?"

Wang Quan's head was full of black lines, "Our birthday is the second day of the second lunar month, right?"

Dorothy's eyes brightened, "February Two Films is also good, using the date as a name is very innovative."

Wang Quan shook his head. This guy has half of the Chinese blood, and he really doesn't know much about the traditions of his ancestors. "February [-] is also called the dragon's head, which means that there is a lot of vitality and all things are competing for development."

"I know that the dragon looks up, it's a day when you can shave your head," Dorothy replied quickly, "You mean the dragon looks up the film industry?"

This time Wang Quan nodded, that's what he meant.

The two communicated in Cantonese, and Dorothy translated it into English, "Dragon Head Raising, it's a bit long, I think about how to simplify it."

Wang Quan said again, "I've always felt that the Chinese dragon should have its own English word, instead of mixing it with the western evil dragon, so I would rather use the Chinese pinyin of the dragon, Long."

Dorothy thought for a while, "Long Head Raising?"

Wang Quan pondered for a while, "Why not call it Long Title."

Dorothy said it twice, "You're playing memes with me here."

It is indeed a homophonic stalk, but Chinese people read it kindly, and foreigners read it very well. The meaning: the title of dragon, if you insist on saying "the title is very long", it can barely be justified.

The two analyzed for a long time, and finally determined the Loong Title. In order to distinguish it from long (long), Huaxia dragon usually has an extra o in the middle. Dragon head up film industry is getting more and more popular, and its influence is getting bigger and bigger. It's not like Oxford won't bow its head. For example, don't they recognize Kongfu now?

Dorothy said excitedly, "You rest first, we will go to register the company in the afternoon!"

King Quan, "Have you forgotten something very important?"

"You mean?"

Wang Quan, "How do we calculate the shares in the company?"

Before working as a studio, the two each contributed 100 million. In addition, Wang Quan provided technology, and Dorothy provided contacts, and each took half of the shares. Now that the company is officially established, and it is a company that is rushing to become bigger and stronger, it can't be such a joke up.

Of course Dorothy knows that how far the company can go in the future depends mainly on what kind of works Wang Quan can produce. In the past few years of acquaintance, especially in the last year, he has shown the potential of a super director. For this company The company is more important than himself.

So Dorothy made a careful decision and said, "Then let's divide six to four, I will six and you four."

Wang Quan shook his head, "You are 55, I am 45."

Dorothy thought for a while, "Okay, that's it. If you want to introduce new shareholders in the future, you will reduce your shareholding proportionately."

The reason why Wang Quan chose a lower shareholding is because of his nationality. Since he has never thought about seeking American nationality, then the big boss of this company must be more convenient and advantageous if he is an American than a Chinese.

Especially if the big boss is a Jew, the advantage is even greater.

But Wang Quan must also fight for his own rights and interests, "In the future, whether it is a director, a script, or a producer, you will need to pay me according to the industry regulations, including profit sharing, and I will have the highest standards in the industry."

Dorothy, "You don't need to remind me about this, the director's salary can rise slowly, but I can make the decision now, in the future you can enjoy 20% profit share of the full copyright income of self-directed and self-edited works, after the establishment of the company, you can directly write into the charter."

Wang Quan was quite surprised that she could propose a 20% dividend ratio, but for Dorothy, it showed her determination to break the boat. The success of the company depends on Wang Quan's works, but Wang Quan's exchange student deadline is coming next year And he has always said that he is just a passer-by to the United States, and he still has to go back after all.

Dorothy has made some sacrifices and concessions at this time. If Wang Quan can decide to stay in Hollywood completely, everyone will be happy.

This concession is indeed very bold, not only box office, but also derivative income such as DVDs, video tapes, pay TV, wireless channels, etc. King Power can take one-fifth of the net profit!

This is all their own company, whether there is profit or not, the amount of profit cannot be concealed from the royal power, and the laughable thing like losing money to shoot Harry Potter will definitely not happen in the dragon's head. Dorothy is determined to use capitalism. Sugar-coated cannonballs corrode royal power.

This kind of dividend ratio even exceeds that of the senior directors like Spielberg. Lao Si can get 20% of the box office profit, but the derivative income of the bigger head is at most 10%. This is already the top 1 director in Hollywood. .

To use a rough analogy, if the company only has one director, Wang Quan, making profits, then for every 100 yuan the company earns, Wang Quan can take 20 yuan as his dividend.

剩下的80按照55：45的比例进行分配，桃乐丝拿走44块，王权合计收获36+20块，他的个人总收入将会超过桃乐丝这个第一大股东。

On the premise that this is not counting the director's salary, if Wang Quan can become a top director, the salary will start at tens of millions of dollars.

No, no!
After calculating the account, Wang Quan suddenly became vigilant. Although he and Dorothy had a lifelong friendship, the Jewish gene in Dorothy's bones could not allow Wang Quan to take advantage of it. Physical advantages can be taken at will, but money In this regard, she will definitely not suffer!
"Tao'er, how much salary do you pay yourself as the CEO?" He asked warily.

Dorothy, "I can just get a $[-] annual salary as a symbol, but I don't have the face to get a high salary if the company's performance is not good."

Things were getting more and more wrong, Wang Quan's alarm bell rang for a long time, he stepped back carefully, "I have already pretended to be your boyfriend once, you don't want me to marry you again!"

"See where you're going," Dorothy said with a smile, "But there is something I really need to ask for your opinion. If the company introduces new shareholders in the future, can Wendy be given priority?"

Wendy is her mother, a bank executive, and the bank is the private bank of their Greenberg family.

Well, it's not impossible, Wang Quan began to contemplate.

Dorothy persuaded, "Wendy helped me a lot before, and we borrowed the upfront payment for the adaptation fee from her. Even if we paid her back, it's not the same as whoever gets the shares, right?"

Wang Quan raised his head, "Then I also have a request."

"You, you say." Dorothy also became vigilant, this young man from China is also very cunning.

Wang Quan, "When the company's works attract investment, they should give priority to me."

Movies with a slightly higher cost are basically not independently borne by a film company. They usually attract funds from various sources and share risks, especially small independent studios. Funds are always in front of them. About The number one question of survival.

Wang Quan and Wang Quan couldn't help spending the money they earned from selling movies, and Longshoutou Films must take the route of borrowing money and raising funds to shoot movies.

Wang Quan has confidence in his own film, so he is willing to invest in it himself.

This surprised Dorothy, "You still have money? Could it be that guy Lafite sold the script for you again?"

"You don't have to worry about this, just say you agree or disagree."

"Agreed, as long as you follow my rules when you invest, it's fine, who's money is not spent~" Dorothy was quite happy, it seems that her partner still has a lot of potential to tap, so she should find a way to make him Stay in the United States and become an American!
Wang Quan does still have some potential. Although he only watched movies this year, there are not only stories and pictures in the movie, but also hidden information about the next 20 years.

Some are worthless, but some are very valuable, and some are worthless to others, but are precious to him.

If he is in politics, he will know who the president behind Xiaobu Shi is, and who the president behind him is. These are wealth.

If he enters the Internet, he can analyze which website has the highest probability of leaving the country on the screen of the protagonist's computer and mobile phone in later movies.

There are also some documentaries about sporting events that have also made King Power some quick cash.

One of the movies made him feel very helpful to him, called "The Big Short", he found it when he was looking at related movies of Ryan Gosling, and confirmed that from other movies and documentaries, thanks to Gao commander.

Knowing so much information about the future, Wang Quan’s money from selling scripts was not directly invested in the movie, but the money first generated money. Now it has become very impressive, but most of it has not yet come to cash~
