Entertainment: Top Agents

“It’s true, I finally thought of a theme here, and you wrote it first.”

Liang Lin, who drank tea, complained helplessly.

But all this is acting, and naturally it is also for the cooperation to talk about later.

“So what, do you want to cooperate?”

“It just so happens that I also need to find investment for this film, and we work together again?”

What Liang Lin didn’t expect was that Zhou Xingchi actually took the initiative to cooperate?

This saved Liang Lin a lot of trouble and tongue.

“Why, if you let me invest, it must be a huge investment, right?”

“Haha~” Zhou Xingchi, who was debunked, also smiled particularly boldly.

“I think you are still very discerning, know the current film market, and especially like this visual blockbuster; So you’re doing sci-fi now. ”

“I’m also a science fiction film, and I will definitely use a lot of special effects.”

“How, do you want to invest?” Zhou Xingchi finished drinking tea and put down the teacup.

Liang Lin poured water, re-soaked it again, and then poured it to Zhou Xingchi.

This is exactly what he wants, how can he not cooperate?

“What about the script? I haven’t read the script, where dare I say direct investment? ”

“Okay, show me the script, right? So what you wrote is different from what I thought, can I still “one three zero” to pick up another setting? As soon as Liang Lin finished speaking, Zhou Xingchi laughed.

“The script is not here, I’ll send it to you then.”

“But this project, really have to shoot, no 300 million shots are not good.”

“I don’t use big-name actors, but even the production costs are quite a lot.”

Zhou Xingchi’s, Liang Lin also knows.

But in fact, Liang Lin is very clear that Zhou Xingchi generally exceeds the budget when making movies

The production cost of “Mermaid” is 350 million.

Now Zhou Xingchi said that it is 300 million, then the remaining 50 million is the budget excessive.

Liang Lin had this psychological preparation, but he didn’t think there was anything to be surprised about.

“Tell me what you think?” Liang Lin asked him what he thought.

“If the actor’s salary is paid, I will control it as much as possible, and the male number one I prefer is Deng Yuan.”

“According to his current film market price, if I invite him, it will be up to 10 million.”

“More than 10 million, I don’t need him, find someone else.” Zhou Xingchi feels that with his own face, Deng Qian can star in this movie, and the salary will definitely not be very high.

“Well, almost, he actually just came to me before.”

After Liang Lin, who was drinking tea, explained this, Zhou Xingchi was surprised: “He looked for you?” ”

“Yes, he wants to direct and act in a movie with a friend, and ask me to invest.”

“I invested 30 million in movies for him.”

“Now your “Mermaid” project, as long as it is my Rebirth Entertainment investment production and production, then using your circle status and my relationship, 5 million can make him star in this movie.”

“That would be great.” Zhou Xingchi is the most satisfied.

“Next is the female number one, how much does your artist, Deli Gerba, be paid?”

“It’s not high, the market price is two or three million, she is also a new person.”

“The first movie ‘My Savage Girlfriend’ was made this year, and it hasn’t been released yet.”

“Next year he will also have a war science fiction film, and after filming this, there will be a schedule in the second half of the year.”

“So her salary can’t be higher no matter how high it is, Deng Banknote only takes 5 million, and my family Reba can’t exceed 5 million.” What Liang Lin said also made Zhou Xingchi feel at ease.

Yes, in this way, the salary of the male and female protagonists is 00000.

“In this way, I can control the salary of all actors within 15 million.”

“But what do you think, I wrote the script, and I directed the movie.”

“How much are you going to pay me?” Zhou Xingchi asked Liang Lin with a smile.

This year’s cooperation “When Happiness Knocks”, Liang Lin gave him a salary of 80 million

If you cooperate with “Mermaid” next year, what is Liang Lin’s plan.

“I can, you want a salary, I will give you a salary, you want box office dividends, you want box office dividends.”

“This script is not written by me, it is written by you, it is also your project, whether it is salary or dividends, you decide, I can do it.” Liang Lin knows how to do things.

Anyway, domestic directors take box office dividends, the highest is 5%

Unless the director also participates in the investment, if not participates in the investment.

If you just write and act and direct, then the highest is 5% box office dividends.

If it is only a pure director movie, not the screenwriter of this movie, nor the starring of this movie, but a pure director, the industry stipulates that pure directors take dividends, and the maximum cannot exceed 3% of the total box office.

If it is a director + acting, then it may get 4%~5% of the total box office.

And it depends on what kind of actor you are.

If it is a powerful director like Zhou Xingchi, Chenglong, Wu Xuan (popular) + a first-line big name, the actor’s box office dividend will be 2%.

The cost of screenwriting is almost negligible, that is, hundreds of thousands, and more is millions.

Therefore, Liang Lin is mentally prepared, and Zhou Xingchi will give 5% dividends if he wants to pay dividends.

“Mermaid” 34 box office 5%, the dividend is 170 million

To put it bluntly, of course, Liang Lin wants to pay the film.

Because it is impossible to pay director Zhou Xingchi 170 million.

Just like “Journey to the West”, the 80 million promised by Huayi is actually a dividend, not a salary.

The salary is only a director remuneration of 20 million. [ Read more novels for free on our website: tinyurl.com/2aa54z8b ]

The promised 80 million was promised by Wang Zhonglei, as long as the box office exceeds 500 million, Xingye will pay 80 million dividends, and everyone knows the result.

“Give me a pay.” Zhou Xingchi, who was afraid, said to pay him.

“Why get paid? Don’t pay dividends? Liang Lin was surprised and surprised.

He is ready to give Xing Ye 170 million dividends.

Why did you suddenly say that you want to pay at this time?

“Alas, I’m afraid.” Zhou Xingchi weakly said his feelings.

“What happened in the first half of this year?” After Liang Lin listened, he also guessed.

“yes.”

Knowing that this was the case, Liang Lin said to Xing Ye: “You say, how much do you want for the director of this project?” ”

“50 million.” Xing Ye finally decided that he only needed a salary of 50 million.

But in fact, this is already a lot, as one of the big directors in China, this is really not high.

If he gets dividends, he must be more than this in this movie.

“Only 50 million? I thought you were going to ask me for 80 million. Liang Lin smiled.

“No, no, no, the director’s salary of “Journey to the West” last time was 20 million…..”

“”When Happiness Knocks” is because of being the director and starring role, so I want you 80 million.”

“This time it’s me screenwriter and director, if I don’t star, naturally there is no reason to ask for 80 million.”

“And this 50 million is actually high.” Zhou Xingchi himself is embarrassed, really.

“Okay, the contract states that your salary is 50 million.”

“When the movie is released, if the box office is good, I will seal you another red envelope.”

When Zhou Xingchi heard this, he quickly waved his hand: “Don’t don’t, I’m really afraid, don’t say that.” ”

The so-called once been bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of the well rope, it is now Zhou Xingchi.

He was pitted by Huayi’s Wang Zhonglei once, and he was really scared.

“Don’t get me wrong, give you a red envelope, not a dividend.”

“The red envelope is given by me, and the dividend is equivalent to a partnership, which is different.”

“Besides, this red envelope won’t be deducted from your pay.”

“It’s simply a matter of watching, if the box office is good, I will give you a red envelope.”

“If the box office is not good, I just happen to return the book, or if I don’t make much money.”

“Then I can’t give you a red envelope.” Liang Lin explained this, and Zhou Xingchi was relieved.

“Okay, it doesn’t matter if this red envelope is given or not, as long as the 50 million salary is within the contract.”

Zhou Xingchi was very satisfied, but Liang Lin also smiled: “In that case, give you a good advice on investment.” ”

“In the next few years, real estate investment in the mainland will be good.”

“If you have spare money, don’t let it try to speculate in the mainland.”

Zhou Xingchi was surprised and pleasantly surprised.

He believed Liang Lin’s words, because Liang Lin was able to achieve a market value of 5 billion yuan and a net profit of 2 billion in just one year, which is enough to show his investment vision.

If you don’t believe in such a person with good investment vision, then who listens to it?

“Okay, if I had the money left, I would try to invest it.”

After talking about this matter, I also signed the contract.

After Zhou Xingchi looked at the contract, he signed it after making sure that there was no problem. 3.3

In addition to negotiating the contract today, there is another thing that the director of “When Happiness Knocks” is finished, and the remaining balance needs to be transferred to Zhou Xingchi.

After the film is completed, as long as it is edited and approved, it will be arranged for release.

Therefore, if the final payment is anything, everything that should be given will be given.

Before filming started, 50% of the salary had been given to Zhou Xingchi.

Now that the filming of the film is completed, the final payment will naturally be given.

Zhou Xingchi, who got the final payment, was completely relieved.

He was just pitted once in the first half of the year, and this time he was also very careful and cautious.

But when Liang Lin gave it to him as promised, Zhou Xingchi also understood Liang Lin’s character.

“In a hurry? If you are not in a hurry, have a meal together? Liang Lin asked Zhou Xingchi.

“No, I have to go back to Xiangjiang to arrange follow-up work.”

“After the investment contract for the “Mermaid” project was signed, my side also had to quickly improve the script and complete the preliminary preparations.” Zhou Xingchi said that he was also in a hurry.

The main thing is that he is tired and wants to go back to Xiangjiang to rest for a while.

Liang Lin also understood, so he didn’t force him to stay, but sent him downstairs.
