Starlight Korean Entertainment

To be honest, although Jiang Jiongzhe is just a newcomer, he is a very high-spirited person, very confident and proud. He has traveled to several film production companies with his confident script, but none of them can be seen. this script.

In the end, it was an accidental help from an old classmate in college and Song Kanghao, which successfully approved the project and prepared the film.

At first, I thought I could make my own movie smoothly, but knowing the unpredictable things in the world, Jiang Jiongzhe encountered many rejections again when it came to choosing actors. Not only Cha Tae-hyun, but before Lin Youmin, he also found other suitable actors for this movie. Actors, after reading the script and knowing Jiang Jiongzhe's resume, they all shook their heads and refused without exception.

Those rookie actors in the audition are really average in acting skills, and they are not useful at all, so when he learned that Lin Youmin had volunteered to play a role, and Song Kanghao recommended him, Jiang Jiongzhe had already found many of them. Lin Youmin's materials and works were carefully observed.

Although Lin Youmin has never acted in any comedy, that is, the first famous "Dream Couple" can be seen a little bit, but Jiang Jiongzhe still found a lot of details that he liked, and it is precisely because of his research that this time In just one hour, the protagonist candidate was finalized.

"You Minxi, now we can talk about the issue of salary. To be honest, our investment is very small, and the sum of the bits and pieces is only 48 billion won at best." Jiang Jiongzhe finalized Lin Youmin as the protagonist After that, he spoke very sincerely and openly.

In this regard, there is nothing to hide, after all, Lin Youmin was also recommended by Song Kanghao.

Lin Youmin looked at Quan Encan like that, then nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "No problem, I'm just a newcomer in the film industry now, I don't care about the salary."

Also because of Song Kanghao, Lin Youmin offered to act on his own initiative. There is a lot of room for negotiation about the salary and so on. There is no need to hang on to it. The current Lin Youmin is only worth [-] million won if he dies. Film remuneration, his main income, is mainly from various magazine shootings, catwalk shows, cf shooting and brand endorsements.

The production cost of "Speeding Gossip" is 48 billion won, which is not much more than the 30 billion won of "My Father". Anyway, it is also produced at a small cost. Compared with the 150 billion won of "Three Guys", that is The difference is even further.

Uh, the calm Jiang Jiongzhe felt a rare moment of embarrassment, and said with some embarrassment, "Um, You Mingxi, it's like this. In order to save costs and make better movies, our actresses will use newcomers."

Lin Youmin was stunned in doubt, and replied, "It's okay, director, I don't mind whoever I work with."

"It's like this. Regarding your salary, our suggestion is... can you get it as a dividend?" Jiang Jiongzhe was really embarrassed. Because of the preparation, he had already spent almost all of his budget. The remuneration paid to the leading actor is really not much, and the remaining part must be carefully calculated to save some money.

He couldn't find a satisfactory male lead, but Jiang Jiongzhe still found a few good candidates for the female lead, at least it was more than enough for "Speeding Scandal".

Dividends?Lin Youmin was stunned for a while, and then she blushed. An idea popped up in her mind, why is it a dividend?

From "My Father", "Three Guys", and now - "Speeding Gossip", all are dividends, and up to now they haven't even received a penny of official film remuneration.

Quan Encan coughed and took the words, "Director Jiang, we can make concessions on the issue of remuneration, but since it is a dividend, I hope it is a ratio that meets our value. This is a commercial issue. You can discuss it with me." Talk, Youmin is only in charge of acting."

Jiang Jiongzhe gave a dry laugh, and pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, although if it was from the past, dividends were the power only big names would have, and he should feel honored.

But the problem is that the big names get remuneration plus dividends, even if the film loses money, it will not make less money, and Lin Youmin's pure dividend method, the worst result is that the performance is for nothing, which is a huge problem for commercial value. No small loss.

No matter how good Lin Youmin's acting skills are, it's impossible to guarantee that every movie will not lose money, or even make a lot of money. This involves many factors, and actors are not obliged to win and lose with the film.

"Well, how about this, En Canxi, let me ask the financial team of the film crew to talk to you! Although I am the director, I only have the right to speak in this regard. It still depends on the production company, but I will try my best to help Yes." Jiang Jiongzhe could only make concessions like this.

Quan Encan nodded slightly, and no longer raised the meaning. These are not things that a director can solve. Anyway, his negotiating ability is enough to help Lin Youmin get back a good dividend ratio. As long as the movie can make money back, he will not It will make Lin Youmin do nothing.

Jiang Jiongzhe took out a few documents from his bag, put them on the table, handed them to Lin Youmin, pointed to them, and said, "Youmin xi, this time we plan to use newcomers in the use of heroines, you It's also the male lead, are you interested in going to the gatekeeper interview together?"

Compared with Jiang Jiongzhe looking for the male protagonists one by one, the heroine is much easier and simpler. Although the external interview competition is not empty, Jiang Jiongzhe really found a few good seedlings.

Lin Youmin was slightly startled, took the information, and read it curiously, while Jiang Jiongzhe explained to him, "These are Park Shin Hye and Park Bo Young, who I value more this time..."

Lin Youmin looked through carefully, and found that the candidates for these heroines were basically all without much experience in acting in movies, and their appearance was also pure, sweet, and young.

There is also a very special place, that is, the candidates given by Jiang Jiongzhe are not the type of beauties that Korean people like most in the traditional sense. In the entertainment circle, they can only be said to be above average or even average, but almost every People have their own characteristics.

Lin Youmin casually turned to the next page, saw the photo of the candidates in the upper right corner, the movement of his hands froze suddenly, his brows and eyes instantly twisted up, looking a little weird, Lin Youmin pointed at the photo in astonishment, Asked Jiang Jiongzhe, "Director, is this also a candidate for the heroine?"

Jiang Jiongzhe looked at the direction Lin Youmin was pointing at, patted himself on the head, and suddenly realized, "You mean Quan Baolan? Well, she is too. Speaking of which, I am quite impressed. Her family is all seniors." And, how should I put it, I rarely see such a big difference between her real age and appearance, it's really cute."

That's right!Lin Youmin was on the side of the candidate, and the person he saw was Quan Baolan! (To be continued.)
