Entertainment: Top Agents

The popularity of the New Year's Eve party is still continuing, but viewers and fans across the Internet are calling for it.

Let Rebirth Entertainment hurry up and arrange for Tong Xiao? If he goes to Mi Fei Film Studio, then Xiaohuatuan will release an album.

Regarding this request, Liang Lin, as a manager and music producer, of course responded to this matter.

The two songs played at the New Year's Eve party have made Honey Princess movie star Tong Xiao?'s popularity continue to rise.

Liang Lin, who is in the company, is still making arrangements for Zhongmei’s work this year.

"Boss."At this time, Wang Sheng came in with the information.

"Well, tell me."Liang Lin, who arranged the work, asked his assistant to say

"This is what you want. You need to interview some new people and sign contracts to train them."

"These are the materials that I recently came over for interviews. Can you take a look?"

Liang Lin nodded and signaled to just put the information on the table and wait for him to look at it.

After Wang Sheng put the things down, Liang Lin continued his work.

Just in time, Xu Zheng also contacted him at this time.

He said he wanted to come over to discuss cooperation. Liang Lin said he was in the company.

Two hours later, Xu Zheng came to Rebirth Entertainment

"See Mr. Liang for an appointment."Xu Zheng at the front desk, and the reception etiquette instructions of Rebirth Entertainment

"Director Xu, please come here."With that said, the front desk took Xu Zheng to Liang Lin's office.

Liang Lin, who was in the office, nodded when he saw the front desk etiquette and Xu Zheng coming in.

The front desk etiquette arranged for Xu Zheng to sit on the sofa, and Liang Lin is also coming

"What's the matter?"Beautiful Heart" is finished?"This is something Liang Lin doesn't know yet.

"It’s finalized, it’s already the 10th."Xu Zheng explained that the movie has been completed.

It started filming in October, and now it is January 10th. It has been shooting for three full months.

Liang Lin is not surprised that the movie is now completed.

"So what, you just finished shooting and you came to me non-stop?"

"That’s it, let’s work together again, what do you think?"

Coming here this time, Zheng Ran wants to cooperate.

Liang Lin actually guessed the purpose of Xu Zheng's visit this time.

Needless to say, he also knew that Xu Zheng must be here for"囧"

"Tell me?"Now that he had guessed it, Liang Lin made tea for Xu Zheng.

"Last year's"囧囧" did very well at the box office. Of course, I know that if Mr. Liang hadn't invested in me and believed in us, we wouldn't have been able to make this film."

"And when it was released, if it weren't for Mr. Liang's gambling agreement, I wouldn't have been able to get so many film schedules for the movie. I admire your courage."

"Therefore, a huge part of the 1.7 billion box office record of"囧" belongs to you."

"So this time, I came to Mr. Liang with a sequel, do you think?"

Xu Zheng also said this cautiously.

In fact, Liang Lin also made an estimate of this matter, because he knew that Xu Zheng is more confident now than last time.

Why? Because the"囧" series has become a profitable Big IP.

Now that he has a strong box office like"囧囧", Xu Zheng is now more confident. In this cooperation, Liang Lin invested in Xu Zheng's movie. Xu Zheng will definitely not get paid, and he will definitely He wants box office dividends, because if he gets box office dividends, he can get more.

Otherwise, according to Xu Zheng's current salary, the market price is 30 million, the director's salary is only 2,000, and the screenwriter's remuneration is basically the same as the previous salary. It can be ignored. Therefore, Xu Zheng’s current director plus actor salary is 50 million.

Second only to Cheng Long and Zhou Xingchi’s director plus starring salary.

Zhou Xingchi’s director and starring salary is 80 million. As for Cheng Long? It is said that it is a 1.613 billion.

According to his memory of the box office of"Embarrassed in Hong Kong", without Liang Lin's intervention, the box office seemed to be 1.613 billion. With

1.613 billion in box office, Xu Zheng, who wrote, directed, and acted, could get 5% of the total box office dividend.

5% is the highest box office dividend.

And this 5% of the box office is converted to more than 80 million. Of course

, this is the original box office dividend, but if Liang Lin's operation intervenes.

For example, like"囧囧" In this way, if the film schedule is increased, the box office of this movie will also increase.

As long as the box office is sufficient and the reputation of the first film is there, Liang Lin has enough confidence that his publicity methods can make this movie box office exceeded 2 billion

《"囧囧" had a box office of 1.3 billion, but he was able to turn it into 1.7 billion

《"囧" has a box office of 1.6 billion, but he can't convert it into 2 billion?

Therefore, based on a box office of 2 billion, a 5% dividend would be 100 million.

To be honest, at this time, he is definitely willing to pay Xu Zheng a salary and not share box office dividends.

After all, whether the original box office was 1.6 billion, it finally reached 2 billion under his operation.

To share box office dividends would mean giving Xu Zheng tens of millions more. Of course Liang Lin didn't want to do that.

But he also knew that if he didn't pay dividends, Xu Zheng would find other companies to cooperate.

If Xu Zheng had found someone else to collaborate, he would have missed this movie.

If a 5% dividend is given, based on the box office of 1.6 billion, it would be a dividend of 80 million.

Then based on a 35% dividend, Liang Lin will be able to receive 560 million, and this is before deducting costs.

If it were a dividend, then the cost of this movie would not have exceeded 50 million.

That is to say, the final profit will be 510 million. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

But if you don’t pay dividends but pay remuneration, the cost will also increase.

Suppose, instead of giving dividends, we give remuneration.

Xu Zheng's salary for writing, directing, and acting is 50 million, and the remaining actors and production costs are 50 million, so the production cost of this movie is 100 million.

Then 40 points of the box office of 1.6 billion is 6.4. After deducting the cost of 100 million, it still makes 5.4.

In fact, after all, the profit is the tens of millions given to Xu Zheng.

But Xu Zheng is unwilling to say that he will not give dividends but only remuneration.

After the final breakup, the script belongs to Xu Zheng and he can find other companies to cooperate with.

I believe other companies will definitely be willing to invest after seeing the success of"囧囧".

By then, Liang Lin and Rebirth Entertainment will no longer be short of 30 million, but will lose 500 million or even more.

This is when you have enough strength and enough commercial value, you will have enough confidence.

When you fail to prove yourself and demonstrate your business value, you will be influenced by capitalists when discussing cooperation.

But once you reflect your value, you have the confidence to get more for yourself when negotiating.

This is the entertainment industry, this is the most real side of society.

Therefore, Liang Lin is the kind of person who knows the current affairs and is a good person. He knows that he shouldn't have a big appetite, so he shouldn't.

Otherwise, if you have a big appetite, you may miss out on hundreds of millions in order to earn tens of millions more.

……

"How much to invest?"Liang Lin, who was drinking tea, asked Xu Zheng in front of him to see how much investment he wanted.

"For this movie, I want to get a share of the box office profits."Xu Zheng explained what he meant.

"How many?"Liang Lin, who has been mentally prepared for a long time, is not exaggerating.

"According to the rules of the industry, no matter how big a director is, the box office dividend can only be 5% of the total box office. If you want a dividend of more than 5 points, then the director can only invest in it himself."

"If you don't invest in it, no matter how big-name the director or the leading actor is, you can only get 5 points."

"So, I’m not greedy either. I also know that if it weren’t for Mr. Liang, my work wouldn’t have such high commercial value and box office."

"This time for the dividends from"囧", I wrote, directed, and acted without any salary, I only need the dividends"

"And my 3-point dividend would be fine."Xu Zheng explained his request.

"3 points of dividend?"Liang Lin was particularly surprised after hearing this.

"Yes, I only want 3 points of dividends."Xu Zheng explained that he wanted 3 points of dividends.

"If you want a 3-point dividend, you might as well want a salary"

"Taking the 1.7 billion box office of"囧" as a calculation, the dividend of 3 points is 51 million"

"Your salary for writing, directing, and acting is already 50 million. Isn’t it safe for you to get paid for the movie?"

"By then, what will happen if the box office of"囧 in Hong Kong" is not as good as that of"囧 in Thailand"?"

Of course Xu Zheng also knew about Liang Lin's proposal.

But Xu Zheng also had his own ideas, saying:"But (the one with good money) I believe in Mr. Liang's means and ability."

"《The box office of"囧 in Hong Kong" will definitely exceed that of"囧 in Thailand". Even if it doesn't surpass it, I think the minimum guarantee will be about 1.7 billion, which is about the same as"囧 in Thailand". In this way, my salary and dividends will be the same."

"Now, I take a 3-point dividend and bet that the box office of"囧 in Hong Kong" will exceed that of"囧 in Thailand"》"

This is Xu Zheng's confidence in the commercial value of his works, and his confidence in Liang Lin.

But Liang Lin didn't expect that Xu Zheng only needed 3 points?

Now it seems that Xu Zheng also wanted to have a good relationship with him, so he didn't ask for 5 points.

And Xu Zheng feels that the box office of this film should be 2 billion.

If there is a box office of 2 billion and a dividend of 3 points, that is 60 million, which is 10 million more than the salary. This is a huge income for Xu Zheng.

"So how much capital do you plan to ask for?"Liang Lin can be regarded as agreeing to Xu Zheng's request.

"If you give me a 3-point dividend, then I don’t need a salary, so the initial investment cost of this movie can be saved from my salary."

"My budget, the total investment for this film is between 50 million and 60 million."Xu Zheng said

"What about actors?"This is what Liang Lin is most concerned about, because the second male lead in"囧" is not from Wang Baoqiang.
