Illiterate top class: three years of poor performance, become a superstar

Chapter 30 It's broken, I've become a layman with extra money!

A second ago, you almost pointed at Xu Nian's nose and said that you have no acting skills. After joining the group, you look like you have to study hard.

Why did the conversation change so quickly in the last second?
Not to mention that Meng's mother is a worrying person who has a million thoughts in this second.

Even Zhang Yawei was thinking about how to ease the atmosphere just now.

The result...that's it?
Meng Chao felt that his brain really couldn't keep up with the version update!
It's not enough to take the initiative to send at least 4000 million star contracts, now it's enough to send a series in person, right?
Calculated as a series of at least three parts, you, Li Cheng, have to persuade the management to pay Xu Nian 1.2 million in real money.

Why can't you have so much money?

Can't you continue chasing your dreams like before?It is enough to shoot three literary films.

If it can’t be done, how many houses can be used to raise, one house is 1000 million a year for her, enough to support 12 houses, and it will take two weeks to queue up!

Do you have to rush to give Xu Nian this crap, right?
I, Meng Chao, was the first to replace Li Cheng and felt that it was not worth it.

Unexpectedly, with just three sentences, Li Cheng let Xu Nian's biggest 'spot', Meng Chao, show off his...false feet!
How can I put Meng Chao's mood like this...'I am afraid that my brother will suffer, and I am afraid that my brother will drive away'.

Watching Xu Nian make money and Meng Chao is not uncomfortable, a top-notch active-duty man can make money doing whatever he wants;
But seeing one or two rushing to send money to Xu Nian, he felt a little unspeakably uncomfortable for some reason.

But at this time Xu Nian inadvertently noticed the subtle change in Meng Chao's expression, and his heart moved slightly, and he took this matter down firmly.

Turning to meet the eyes of Li Cheng, Lin Shu and the others, Xu Nian said sincerely, "Thank you Director Li for your kindness."

"I am also very grateful to Director Li for saving me face. To be honest, I basically have no talent in acting."

"But since Director Li trusts me so much, I will definitely try my best to complete the scene in the most natural state."

"Okay!" Li Cheng said excitedly when he slapped the table, "With Mr. Xu's attitude, I can rest assured!"

"I hate people who talk too much. I think naturalness is more important than any acting skills!"

After a pause, Li Cheng explained in detail: "I saw your itinerary on Weibo a while ago. Your natural state... how should I put it, very artistic! It hit me right away."

"So, I went to see the movie you starred in, and found that Director Wu paid too much attention to skills and ignored too many more important things."

"After watching Super Challenge, I found that your condition is better than I expected. I confirmed with Zhou Jing, and I really didn't give you the script."

After saying this, Li Cheng said seriously: "So, you must believe in yourself as firmly as I believe in you!"

Xu Nian: "..."

His eyes were dazed, but there was a clarity in them, and a trace of stupidity was reflected in the clarity.

It's hard to imagine that after going through this kind of thing, he would still be completely speechless.

Thoughts turned in Xu Nian's mind over and over again: "Hmm... Director Li made me confused."

"Human, it's rare to be confused." Li Cheng took out a document with a smile, "Don't worry, Mr. Xu will take a look at the outline and character design of the script first."

Xu Nian took the document and looked through it as he said.

The content of the brief outline is not complicated. After seeing that the character design is very casual, he understands it.

Seeing Xu Nian looking up, Li Cheng chuckled, "Mr. Xu now believes that he can take on the leading role in this series."

Hearing this, Xu Nian first looked at the script subconsciously, and then quickly said firmly, "Believe it!"

He couldn't help but not believe it.

Because...aside from the script and character design, that's at least 1.2 million wasted money.

"That's right!" Li Cheng said with satisfaction, "But Mr. Xu may have to work on his lines, I want to use the original voice."

Xu Nian responded clearly, without saying much that he had already worked hard on his lines.

So far, the two sides have reached a consensus on the general direction.

The next thing to talk about is more practical drama.

such as final pay.

.........

Maybe Li Cheng is not good at business negotiations at all, or maybe he doesn't care about these details at all, and he mentioned straight to the point: "I personally hope to sign the play contract in one go."

"The Tang Tan series is currently conceived as a trilogy, and it is expected to be one a year."

"The role of 'Xu Feng' is a process of gradual increase, and the remuneration can be discussed at will."

Faced with Li Cheng being so open and honest, Zhang Yawei raised her eyes inadvertently, and motioned for Qi Yongyi, the vice president of Tianyue, to take over.

Qi Yongyi immediately understood: "Director Li is quick to speak, but signing the play contract at one time is too risky for both you and me. Is there a more secure way?"

"That's right." Li Cheng agreed, "That's why I can show my sincerity."

"Of course, the risks in this form are indeed very difficult to predict, so I also want to hear the opinions of your company, including Mr. Xu."

Xu Nian didn't say anything, but when he was caught by the cue, he quickly glanced at Zhang Yawei.

Zhang Yawei quickly let the negotiation enter the intermission stage.

She didn't have to think about Xu Nian's intentions.

This is the best option.

Because it doesn't matter what Xu Nian's intentions are, anyway, he can talk about anything in private.

Then Xu Nian followed Zhang Yawei into the chairman's office.

Zhang Yawei said bluntly: "Tell me about your bottom line."

Xu Nian didn't talk too much, and said frankly: "One-time signing is fine, but three parts in three years must be implemented in the contract."

"Personally, I am more inclined to sign the contract in one go, and implement the salary in black and white to maximize the benefits."

After listening, Zhang Yawei thought about it a little: "The bottom line of the first film is clear, and it is impossible to give a share of the box office, so the salary will be increased."

"The second and third films can reduce the film salary, but they must get a share of the box office. How many points can be negotiated, and the business side will do their best."

Xu Nian responded directly: "Okay, thank you Mr. Zhang."

"Don't be so polite." Zhang Yawei waved her hand, "Now Tianyue and I are in your favor."

As she spoke, she showed her face and smiled lightly, with a very bright feeling.

Fortunately, Xu Nian was well-informed and didn't stop for a second, but just smiled back.

.........

This time Li Cheng and Lin Shu made a special trip to Huacheng with great determination. After the intermission, the discussion continued closely.

During this process, Xu Nian learned that Lin Shu was not only the lead actor, but also one of the investors.

Moreover, Lin Shu is also very optimistic about Xu Nian.

Lin Shu said that he actually didn't know how to act, and he also talked about his views on Xu Nian.

"As for some people, smoking can't wait to smoke eighteen kinds of tricks, such and such, and you can maintain any state at will in the natural state, why don't you just leave others by a thousand miles?"

Xu Nian: "..."

He just sounded familiar, so he didn't have the nerve to say more.

However, Meng Chao who heard this was almost dreaming.

When did you become so popular without acting skills?
However... things will not change because of Meng Chao's messy thoughts.

After some discussions and dragging, the contract framework and important terms were finally finalized.

Sign three plays at once, but they must be completed within three years.

The first film pays 5000 million yuan and has no box office share.

The two and three film salaries are all 800 million, and the box office share range is determined at 3% to 7%.

The subsistence allowance is 3%, and the proportion will be increased depending on factors such as box office appeal.

……

Shaking hands with Li Cheng and Lin Shu to say goodbye, and saying goodbye to Zhang Yawei, Qi Yongyi and other Tianyue senior executives, Xu Nian got into Coster and went home.

Cars drive on a busy road.

Xu Nian was still a little confused at the moment, and after a while, he slapped his thigh: "It's broken, Cheng Jiaqian layman!"

For some reason, the latest contract suddenly increased the money while talking about it.

"Good guy, you're a good boy, ah~!" On the other side, Meng Chao finally couldn't help it, interjecting sourly.

Hearing this, Xu Nian turned his gaze away, and then his expression gradually became playful...
