I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor

Chapter 271
"You, you, if you're not at home, spend more time with Yumo. It's okay if you're busy with the company every day.

Now you actually have to go abroad for several months. This is how you act as a husband! "

Wan Qingshan, who was sitting in the yard peeling grapes for Chen Yumo, listened to Li Ru talking loudly in the room, his expression unchanged at all.

I have long been used to being nagged, so Wan Qingshan has already practiced it and selectively did not hear it.

"Mom, it's okay. I'm only four months old and it's still early before the due date. He will definitely be back by then."

Wan Qingshan pretended not to hear, but Chen Yumo couldn't. She swallowed the grape Wan Qingshan handed to her mouth, turned around and shouted into the room.

One thing comes after another, Wanqingshan is afraid of Li Ru, and Li Ru is afraid of Chen Yumo.

It can't be said that he is afraid, because Li Ru is already good to Chen Yumo, and since Chen Yumo is pregnant now, Li Ru follows Chen Yumo in everything.

When Chen Yumo said this, Li Ru said, "Qingshan, look at Yumo who is still facing you. You are actually running abroad at this time." 'After that, I stopped nagging.

Chen Yumo turned his head, swallowed the grapes handed to his mouth, and said, "I don't want to eat, I don't want to eat, you can eat it yourself."

Wan Qingshan turned around slightly, picked up the grapes and stuffed them into his mouth. He was not like Chen Yumo, who had to peel the grapes to eat them. He always ate them with the skins on.

"Three months, are you sure you can come back?"

Chen Yumo told Li Ru that it was okay, but he was still a little dissatisfied. At this time, he actually went abroad to make a movie.

"Yes, I definitely can. Don't worry, we can definitely finish the filming within three months." Wan Qingshan quickly assured.

He also knew that it was not a good time to go abroad to make movies at this time, but he had nothing to do every day and was too busy to sit still.

Although he is in charge of Qingshan Media, except for being busy during the first period of management, he does not need to take care of it the rest of the time.

Being told every day at home is so boring, I might as well go out and film.

"Let me tell you, if you are not here when I enter the delivery room, just wait for me!" Chen Yumo said, reaching out to pinch Wan Qingshan's arm.

Chen Yumo was so cruel this time that Wan Qingshan gasped in pain.

"Hiss, it must be there, it must be there, let go first!"

"Humph!"

Chen Yumo snorted coldly, let go of his hand and stood up to go to the room to help Wan Qingshan pack his things.

Wan Qingshan rubbed his arms and was about to eat another grape when his cell phone rang.

Taking out his cell phone and seeing that it was Ren Zhonglun's call, Wan Qingshan immediately guessed what it was about.

"President Ren!"

"Haha, Mr. Wan, I heard that your new movie has been changed to a Hong Kong movie."

Wan Qingshan's new movie changed from an online movie to a Hong Kong movie. When Jiang Zhiqiang sent the script of "Fair, Just" for review, the news spread. As soon as the news spread, Qingshan Media's stock price immediately skyrocketed, making many shareholders He was so angry that he cursed his mother.

Because it was an online movie, Tsingshan Media's stock price fell for several days in a row, and its total market value returned to more than 700 billion.

Now it has become a Hong Kong film. It cannot be released domestically due to script issues, but it doesn't matter if there is no domestic revenue. Wan Qingshan's film will definitely be released globally, so capital is buying up the shares of Qingshan Media.

After a few days, Qingshan Media’s market value returned to 800 billion!
This time, nothing seems to be missing, but many investors have suffered huge losses.

Their news channels are always a little slower than capital. Once they know that the new movie is an online movie, they sell their shares.

But this became a Hong Kong movie. Capital received the news first. When they learned the news from media channels, the stock price was bought up by capital.

Now Wan Qingshan's reputation among investors is not very good, because after he took charge of Tsingshan Media, Tsingshan Media's stock price fluctuated too much and was not as stable as before.

,,,,,,
"It was replaced by a Hong Kong film. There was no other way. The investment was too big and we had to do it."

"Mr. Wan, I heard that you received [-] million in directing fees for your new movie. Is it true?"

When it was announced that the online movie would be directed by a Hong Kong director, the news about Wan Qingshan's [-] million director fee also spread.

When the public found out, they just sighed, damn, the money in the entertainment industry is really not money.

In the industry, except for some directors' private remarks, there is not much voice.

After all, Wan Qingshan received more than 1 million in directing fees for "The Exploding Drummer" and a share of the global box office. It is normal for the new film to receive [-] million in directing fees.

Confusion appeared on Wan Qingshan's face, why did Ren Zhonglun talk about this?

"Yes, what, Mr. Ren, is there anything wrong with my director's fee?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. Mr. Wan, your director's fee is definitely worth it, but it's just a bit unlucky.

I received news that there will be a notice in a few days that the remuneration of actors and directors will be limited to no more than 40% of the total investment. "

Wan Qingshan frowned immediately.

In the past, the 'salary limit' was just a rhetorical statement without any substance. This time, the investment ratio limit is serious.

It's really not a good thing to do it now.Once the restraining order is issued, the director's fee of [-] million will push him into the forefront of the storm.

Although the contract for the crew has been signed long ago, and it is still a Hong Kong film. Logically speaking, this restriction order will not have any impact on the crew of "Fairness, Honesty", but the public will not care so much. They will only think that you are committing crimes against others.

"Mr. Ren, thank you for reminding me!"

"Haha, Mr. Wan, this matter actually has little impact, it's just that the timing is too unlucky."

Before Wan Qingshan could speak, Ren Zhonglun changed the subject.

"By the way, Mr. Wan, the script of the military film I told you before is already available. When you are free, you can read the script and we will discuss the director."

Wan Qingshan thought for a while and said, "Mr. Ren, I have to prepare a new movie here. I may not have time later, or maybe tomorrow."

"Tomorrow! No problem, Mr. Wan, let's meet tomorrow and talk about it."

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone, Wan Qingshan immediately called Li Yancheng and asked him to take people to Malaysia first, and he would go there in two days.

Then, Wan Qingshan called Jiang Zhiqiang and Hillier respectively.

This restriction order is helpful to the film and television companies and the entire film and television industry, but it is really disgusting for him. If he follows the restriction order, unless he makes a movie with a total investment of more than [-] million in the future, he will not get the market-price director's fee at all. Not here.

After making an appointment with Jiang Zhiqiang and Xi Lier to talk at Qingshan Media Company tomorrow afternoon, Wan Qingshan shouted to the room over there, "Yu Mo, please stop cleaning up. I have something to do. I will leave in a few days."

After waiting for a while, Chen Yumo's irritable voice came from the room.

"I've packed everything, and now you can't say you're going to leave!"

Wan Qingshan knew immediately that something was serious. Chen Yumo's temper gradually became irritable as his belly grew. Sometimes he would be angry all day long because of the smallest things.

"It's okay. Just leave it there after you pack it up. Don't worry about it." Wan Qingshan quickly stood up and walked towards the room, saying in a slow tone.

"You can let it go, I don't care."

"Okay, okay, I'll let it go myself, you rest first!"

"Why don't you take a break? I'm tired of sleeping here every day."

"Don't bother, don't bother. How about I go for a walk with you the day after tomorrow?"

"Why don't you go? Is there anything to see around here?"

,,,,,

,,,,,

,,,,,

The next morning, Ren Zhonglun came to Qingshan Media.

After a few polite words, Ren Zhonglun asked his secretary to hand over the script.

"Mr. Wan, please read the script first."

Wan Qingshan was not polite, he took it and looked through it.

Ten minutes later, Wan Qingshan closed the script with a frown.

Seeing Wan Qingshan's expression, Ren Zhonglun immediately asked, "Director Wan, what, is there anything wrong with the script?"

"Mr. Ren, if it is made according to this script, it will be difficult for the movie to have a market."

Ren Zhonglun was stunned for a moment and asked, "Director Wan, is there anything wrong with this script?"

"Mr. Ren, look at the high-grossing movies on the market today. What's so special about them?"

Ren Zhonglun was still a little confused, but he also vaguely understood.

"Director Wan, do you think the script is unattractive?"

Wan Qingshan nodded, "Commercial blockbusters don't need a deep and complicated plot, as long as there is an attraction.

The attraction of military films is war, as long as the war scenes are well shot.

This script is too complicated and has everything, which will compress the attraction of war. "

The script handed over by Ren Zhonglun also had a large pattern. Special teams from several countries practiced and competed. Then during the competition, international terrorists were discovered, so the special teams from several countries joined forces to kill the terrorists.

But Wan Qingshan doesn’t know what the screenwriter is thinking. It’s okay to add brotherhood to it, but also add love to it.

The girlfriend of the male lead, the female lead, turned out to be a terrorist. It was precisely because the female lead gave them help that the special team killed the terrorists, and then the female lead died at the hands of the terrorists.

"I understand, Mr. Wan, thank you for your suggestions. I will ask the screenwriter to revise the script when I get back."

"Mr. Ren, do you want overseas box office for this movie?"

Ren Zhonglun's eyes were full of doubts, "No, my idea is to make military films take root in China first, and then consider the overseas box office after the success of military films.

What, Director Wan, why do you ask that? "

"Since overseas box office is not considered for the time being, Mr. Ren, this script will have to be significantly revised.

I have said before that military films are naturally patriotic, so it is best for all decent characters to be Chinese, so that the audience will have a stronger sense of pride.

In the script, several countries join forces to kill terrorists. The presence of special teams from other countries will weaken this sense of pride. "

Wan Qingshan's words made Ren Zhonglun's eyes light up, "Mr. Wan, you mean that like "Ip Man", it needs to inspire the audience's national emotions."

"almost!"

"Mr. Wan! Working with you is definitely the best thing I have done in the past few years. Your vision for scripts is worthy of being the best in the country." Ren Zhonglun praised with admiration on his face.

This is a bit exaggerated, but Ren Zhonglun really feels that working with Wan Qingshan is the most correct thing he has done in recent years. Wan Qingshan's vision for scripts is truly unparalleled.Before Wan Qingshan could say anything modest about himself, Ren Zhonglun changed the subject.

"Director Wan, who do you think the director should find more suitable?"

Director, this is really difficult for Wan Qingshan. In his impression, Lin Chaoxian is the only one who can make good military and war films.

"Mr. Ren, who should the director look for? This is really difficult for me. I thought about it for a long time, and it seems that only Lin Chaoxian is suitable."

Ren Zhonglun was very surprised that Wan Qingshan would recommend a Hong Kong director. This...
Then, Ren Zhonglun immediately advised, "Mr. Wan, Lin Chaoxian, might it be inappropriate?"

After Ren Zhonglun was surprised just now, he thought of Lin Chaoxian's last year's movie "Reverse War", which was a huge loss.

"I only thought of him for a moment. Of course, if Mr. Ren has a suitable candidate, then Mr. Ren's opinion will prevail."

Wan Qingshan didn't want to insist on using Lin Chaoxian. In addition, in this movie, he is not the main prosecutor, so it would be bad to interfere too much. It is better to let Ren Zhonglun make the decision.

After Ren Zhonglun's thoughts flashed for a moment, he said, "Mr. Wan, if you want a director, I will look for a director first. After the script is written, we will discuss the director."

"No problem, we'll discuss it then."

After the matter was discussed, Wan Qingshan and Ren Zhonglun chatted for a while, had lunch together, and Ren Zhonglun left.

In the afternoon, Hillier and Jiang Zhiqiang arrived one after another.

Wan Qingshan asked the two of them to come because of the restriction order. He didn't want to be the limelight after the restriction order.

So he came up with the idea of ​​changing the contract, not to have a director, and just get 30% of the profits as dividends.

Wan Qingshan exchanged the director's fee for dividends. Jiang Zhiqiang had no objection, but Hillier strongly disagreed.

"Evan, we have signed a contract and we must act in accordance with the contract."

"Chillier, I also hope to act in accordance with the contract, but the restraining order is about to come down. You can't let me violate the restraining order."

"Evan, this restraining order only appeared after we signed the contract. This cannot be the reason for us to change the contract."

Wan Qingshan was a little impatient. He knew that Hillier didn't want to change the contract because he felt that 30% of the movie's profit must be more than [-] million.

He doesn't care about the money. After all, Qingshan Media accounts for 55% of "Fair and Just". If he gets more money, most of it will be paid by Qingshan Media.

If he really cared about the money, he would have calculated the director's fee based on US$500 million plus a 20% share.

According to the current exchange rate, 500 million U.S. dollars is worth 6000 million. Is the 20% share not even 4000 million?

"Chillier, if you ask me not to change the contract, that's fine.

But you have to tell the media on behalf of Colombia that the director’s fee of [-] million for me is a discounted price.

At the same time, you also need to tell the media that I have proposed exchanging dividends for director fees, but you think director fees are more appropriate.

Otherwise, I cannot accept not changing the contract. I cannot affect my reputation just because of one movie. "

Hillier thought for a moment and endorsed Columbia. It wasn't even an endorsement, it was just a few words to the outside world. It was no problem.

"No problem, Evan, I will go to a film and television conference tomorrow, and I will announce it to the media then."

"OK, as long as my reputation is guaranteed, I don't have any objection to whether the contract should be changed or not."

The next day, when attending a film and television exchange meeting, Hillier boasted to the media that Wan Qingshan was selfless and only received [-] million in directing fees!
Receive [-] million directing fees and still be selfless!

After news reports, after the Wanqingshan Preventive 'Restriction Order' came out, someone made a fuss. They were afraid that the matter would not be publicized, so they called Ren Yuxin specifically to ask Penguin to publicize the matter.

As a result, this matter immediately became a hot topic on the Internet. Everyone was just amazed at the [-] million director's fee, but your mother's claim that you are selfless after receiving [-] million is too outrageous!

"No, [-] million is still a preferential price!"

"Damn it, it's so easy for these stars to make money, just [-] million for making a movie!"

"There are people, just like those who open Taobao stores. Some people can only earn tens of thousands a year, while others can earn hundreds of millions a year. Wanqingshan is worth this price."

"It's too fake, [-] million is after the discount!"

"Isn't it written in the news that Wan Qingshan wants to get dividends, but foreigners don't agree and would rather give [-] million than dividends! Foreigners are not stupid, [-] million is definitely a discounted price."

"What a lie, Wan Qingshan makes a movie in Hollywood for US$500 million plus a 20% share, and the Hollywood media has reported it.

It was previously reported by Hollywood that Wan Qingshanguang's directorial fee for "Ati" would be at least US$6 million, which would be more than 2 million in Chinese currency. Do you still think it is more than [-] million? "

"The director's fee for a movie is [-] million, so why is there no Wanqingshan in this year's Forbes celebrity list?"

"It seems that Forbes explained before that this is a Chinese list and Hollywood revenue cannot be included."

"Shit, Yao Riyue was playing in the NBA before, why did he get included again?"

"Wanqingshan will not be listed in Forbes. There are people behind Wanqingshan. In 07, Forbes reported that Wanqingshan's annual income was more than 2 million, ranking Wanqingshan first. But Wanqingshan was immediately removed from the top. Forbes has released a celebrity list again. The previous list and news cannot be found online.

Just look at those rich lists, don't take it seriously, wait until the Rong family appears on the list of rich families, then it will have some credibility. "

"Brother, are you thinking too darkly? That list is still fake!"

"Haha, you are too young. Forbes is also called the Pig Killing List. Many invisible rich people are not on the list. As for the reason, you will understand if you read more history books."

"Wan Qingshan's net worth must have been on the rich list long ago. Not to mention the rest of his net worth, his shares in Qingshan Media, his Penguin stock worth more than one billion and his real estate company are worth 500 billion.

This does not include the Qingshan Cinema Line. Including others, some people in the business community have estimated that Wan Qingshan's current net worth is not 800 billion, but 700 billion. "

"Penguin stocks, real estate companies? Director Wan, what else?"

"No, I think I've heard of Penguin Stock in Wanqingshan, but I've never heard of the real estate company!"

"He has many companies, and the business community calls Wan Qingshan a genius.

Do you know what a wizard is?In [-], Wan Qingshan bought tens of millions of Penguin stocks, which are now worth more than one billion. At that time, he even brought his father-in-law to buy them together, making his father-in-law rich.

In the real estate company, in [-], Wan Qingshan guessed that land prices would skyrocket, so he took out a loan of one billion and took his father-in-law with him. His father-in-law later established Chen's Real Estate Company to develop the land.

Many people must have heard of Chen's Real Estate Company. Although it mainly deals in shopping malls and office buildings, it also does residential properties, but in relatively small quantities.

You will know if what I said is true if you see if all the newly opened Qingshan Cinemas in [-] are in shopping malls.

From this business, he and his father-in-law earned at least 500 billion!
There is also Wan Qingshan who cooperated with Penguin to develop cloud ticket purchasing and TV series. He also asked his wife to acquire film and television network copyrights and sold them to Penguin to make billions. He also engaged in e-commerce and sold them to Penguin for 30 billion in less than a year. .

If you look at his achievements in the business world, you will know why the business world calls him a genius.

Some time ago, he and Ma Yun had a verbal argument?What does it depend on?
You all think he relies on Qingshan Media, but that’s not the case. Just think about it and you’ll know how much Alibaba’s market value is!What is the market value of Qingshan Media?The two companies are completely different in size. How could he have a conversation with Ma Yunping by relying on Qingshan Media? He relied on his record in the business world!

Looking at Penguin again, when cooperating with other companies, they are all strong parties, but when cooperating with Wan Qingshan, they are on an equal footing. This is not for the sake of Qingshan Media, but because of Wan Qingshan.

Some time ago, Ma Huateng resigned as Penguin CEO in order to start a new company with Wan Qingshan.

Now those venture capital companies are eager to give money to Ma Huateng and Wan Qingshan's new company.

Wan Qingshan, who had not yet failed, and Ma Huateng cooperated to start a new company, but Ma Huateng resigned to start it. This new company must be extraordinary, and the venture capital companies are going crazy! "

"No, brother, you have said so much, do you think the stocks of Qingshan Stock Media can be bought?"

"He even described Wan Qingshan as a magical figure, so he can definitely buy it."

"Whether he is a fairy or not, am I exaggerating? If you have any relatives or friends who have some energy in the business world, you can find out.

As for the stock of Tsingshan Media, it’s hard to say. Let’s wait and see whether Wan Qingshan’s thoughts are on Tsingshan Media.

Wan Qingshan returned to China because he was planning to have a child with his wife. He heard that his wife was pregnant. After giving birth to the child, she didn't know whether he would focus on family or work.

If it is with a company, then you can buy it. If not, then Qingshan Media is not worth buying. "

"Fuck, a company worth nearly [-] billion is not as important as his family, why are you bragging like this!"

"Bragging or not, you have to understand Wanqingshan's performance in the business world to evaluate it.

For one thing, if Wan Qingshan had not returned to China for the sake of his family, he would have continued to develop in Hollywood and easily earned hundreds of millions every year. This shows that family is more important to him than money. "

"No, he makes so much money in the business world, why would he make a movie?"

"Don't underestimate making movies. In terms of Wan Qingshan's new movie, Tsingshan Media accounts for half of the investment. His director fee is 5000 million, and [-] million is contributed by other investors. Tsingshan Media contributes [-] million. Calculated based on his shares in Qingshan Media , [-] million, he paid [-] million.

From the directing fee, he earns a net profit of 5000 million. His new movie will definitely be released globally. Even if there is no box office in the mainland, not to mention the global box office of 5 or 2 billion US dollars, as long as it has more than 15 million US dollars, then the profit should be more than [-] million US dollars. into Chinese coins, take a middle value, [-] billion.

15 billion, after excluding costs, there is still 12 billion. Qingshan Media will take [-] million, [-] million, based on shares, [-] million belongs to Wan Qingshan personally.

A movie can earn [-] million, which is more than the annual profits of many listed companies. Do you think it can't be made?
With a global box office of more than 5 million US dollars, based on the past results of Wan Qingshan Films, it is definitely no problem.

There is a problem now. Because the script failed to pass review, the capital is a little worried that the new movie is an art film.

Otherwise, Qingshan Media’s stock price would have been bought up long ago! "

"Damn it, he makes so much money making movies, no wonder Colombia would rather pay a director's fee of [-] million instead of dividends!"

"You're stupid. Colombia would rather pay a director's fee of [-] million. The movie must be a commercial film. Literary films will definitely not give a director's fee of [-] million. Go buy Qingshan Media stocks!"

"Yes, there must be a reason why Colombia gave [-] million. Buy stocks quickly!"

"Grab the chips!"

"Don't read it. Half an hour before the news came out, Qingshan Media had already reached the daily limit. You can't grab it."

"Fuck, the dealer knows the news first again!"

"No, after all you have said, you all think it is normal for Wan Qingshan to take [-] million?"

"I think it's normal. If Wan Qingshan was still in Hollywood, the director's fee would be higher.

You have to accept whether others have the ability to make this money, or whether they are making money from foreigners! "

"It's normal. Most of them are produced by Qingshan Media, and some are produced by foreign companies. Even if he gets one billion for the director, that's normal, as long as the foreign company gives him a reason."

"Normally, I think stars' salaries are too high, but I don't think Cheng Long and Li Lianjie's salaries are high. Their salary in Hollywood is higher than that of domestic movies, so that's reasonable. It can't be compared with Huang Xiaoming and others, right? It doesn’t have any reputation abroad.”

"Don't talk about whether it's reasonable or not, I just want to know what Wan Qingshan's new movie is like, but it didn't pass the review."

"It must be the same as "Heart". When "Heart" won the Golden Lion Award, it was not banned.

By the way, Wan Qingshan was really brave enough to film the movie "Heart", now that I think about it, it gives me chills in my bones. "

"Nonsense, I've already said it's a commercial film, not an artistic film, and it's definitely not like "In the Heart"!"

"Whatever it is, I'm just waiting to go see the movie next year."

"It is unlikely to be released in China, and the script has not passed review. Even if it can be released, it will definitely be a castrated version. It is better to wait to find resources online to watch the full version."
