Two million, this price was actually within Ye Ming's expectation. Zhou Xingxing could definitely offer such a price. But this does not mean that Ye Ming will just let it go.

Therefore, Ye Ming said helplessly: "The three of them are not outsiders. To be honest, it is impossible for me to agree to this price. Maybe it means that before the Oscars, if the three of them were lobbyists, I could agree to this price." . But it’s impossible now. The price of a supporting role in the United States is half a million dollars, and it’s still a Spielberg movie. This means that if I play a supporting role in the future, the price will at least be based on this. After all, In fact, there are few directors in Hollywood who are better than Spielberg."

Yes, if you are talking about commercial film directors, Spielberg has few rivals. He has already given Ye Ming half a million US dollars, equivalent to four million Chinese dollars. In this case, after starring in Spielberg's movie, Ye Ming's net worth will definitely rise. This is almost certain. Yes, it is normal for an actor's net worth to rise when he stars in a movie directed by a big director. Therefore, four million is indeed a basic price.

Zhou Xingxing gave him two million, which was a lot less. Fan Binbin said bluntly: "The situation in China is different from that in Hollywood. Almost no one in China can afford the investment in Minority Report. Of course, if you don't want to, Brother Ming, forget it."

Come on, this is the most unreliable lobbyist. Even Feng Xiaogang feels at this moment whether it is worth bringing this girl Fan Binbin over. How can this girl stand on Ye Ming's side?

Girl, you are on our side.

Ye Ming relaxed his shoulders and said: "If I dare to agree to this price, I will definitely be killed by Sister Fang Fang. I will be killed by her in minutes. If this price is said to be known to outsiders, , how will I make movies in the future, and how will I ask for remuneration? People in Hollywood will tell you.

Your salary in China is only US$250,000, so why should I give you a high salary here? "

Ye Ming's words really made Fan Binbin speechless. It was true. Under such a situation, Fan Binbin finally stopped and completely lost his fighting ability.

It is difficult for an actor's net worth to rise. Winning awards, starring in blockbusters, dark horse movies, etc., may greatly increase an actor's net worth. But this process is relatively slow.

However, if you are talking about lowering your net worth in a good situation, it would take almost a movie.

Therefore, any actor will be very cautious when making a movie at a lower salary. No matter he is a superstar or an ordinary actor, he will not use this flashlight easily.

Therefore, what Ye Ming said is basically irrefutable. There is no way he would delay his work in Hollywood for Zhou Xingxing's movie. Seeing Ye Ming's vow, in such a situation, Feng Xiaogang said: "Zhou Xingxing is a favor, the money is second, this favor is great. Can you help him this time?" , if you have a suitable movie to work with Zhou Xingxing next time, you can hire him to be a supporting actor at a cost price."

This thing is a very common situation, but Ye Ming shook his head and said: "I am a member of the Screen Actors Guild of America. Therefore, even if I want to accept this price at this time, it is impossible. Members are all I have my own minimum price, and if it’s lower than this minimum price, it’s impossible for the Screen Actors Guild to let me go.”

A large part of the Screen Actors Guild's job is to protect the legitimate income of its members. This is an important reason why so many big Hollywood stars join the Screen Actors Guild.

Hearing this, things seemed to have reached a deadlock, because what Ye Ming said was very clear. At this time, it was difficult for Ye Ming to agree. At least now Feng Xiaogang was a little frustrated.

At this time, Feng Xiaogang was full of fire and said: "Do they care about you in the United States?

Anyway, it is the price you want to lower. This matter has a dime to do with Hollywood.

Now that we are in China, we must follow domestic plans. However, if you choose not to do it, I will support you. Sometimes I feel that Zhou Xingxing is a bit stingy. "

Feng Xiaogang's words were definitely meant to offend Ye Ming, and he would directly slap Zhou Xingxing in the face afterwards. This guy is indeed a small steel cannon with powerful firepower. Not only did he attack Ye Ming, he also took care of Zhou Xingxing.

If this word spreads, it will be very big news. But for the situation at the scene, Fan Binbin was counting on Feng Xiaogang's movie, so naturally he wouldn't care about this.

Although the relationship between Uncle Ge and Feng Xiaogang is very good, so naturally he is on Feng Xiaogang's side.

Ye Ming saw that the heat was almost there. Therefore, in such a situation, Ye Ming said without any hurry: "This is not impossible to talk about. Two million, although it is a little less, but this matter , if we sit down and talk, maybe it can be done.

And you don’t have to be so troublesome. Just go back and say it. If you want a simple two million, then I really can't accept it, especially at this critical time, it's even more impossible to accept it.

However, this does not mean that this matter cannot be discussed. However, if we want to talk, we can't talk with an intermediary. We must talk with Zhou Xingxing. Some things can be explained clearly in person. "

These words made Feng Xiaogang very happy. In fact, under such a situation, Feng Xiaogang actually made it very clear when he first came that the three of them might come in vain.

After all, the price of two million is not worthy of Ye Ming's worth. However, if Ye Ming said a complete rejection, then Feng Xiaogang would appear to be incompetent at this time.

If Ye Ming could agree to have a detailed discussion with Zhou Xingxing, this result would be enough for Feng Xiaogang to go back to work.

Therefore, Feng Xiaogang immediately said: "Yi Zi, although we are lobbyists, we still want to do whatever you want. No need to worry about our feelings. We are just spreading the word."

This was completely explained. When leaving, Ge You also stood up, patted Ye Ming on the shoulder and said, "Come on, Ye Zi. If you can stick to your ideals, then stick to your ideals."

Returning to Huayi Brothers, Feng Xiaogang directly explained the conversation with Ye Ming. Wang Zhongjun listened with great interest. There is a lot of knowledge in this matter, so it is not as simple as it seems on the surface. .

Ye Ming, what is going on? Wang Zhongjun hesitated and said: "Xiaogang, this matter is weird. Ye Ming didn't agree at all at first, but in the end, everyone still has a chance to talk. According to your understanding of Ye Ming, we can Which side should we be on?"

Ye Ming's lingering words made Wang Zhongjun very emotional. Ye Ming has grown to this point.

That was Zhou Xingxing's movie. There were only a few stars in China who had enough confidence to say the same thing as Ye Ming, but the result was only a handful.

Therefore, at this time, Feng Xiaogang was also a little hesitant. This matter had better be a win-win situation. He thought for a while and said: "What's the point? Zhou Xingtuo is related to us, so we have already talked with Ye Ming. Everyone Just sit down and talk.

This is already very sincere. If it means that the negotiation cannot be concluded, it means it has nothing to do with us. Anyway, we have completed Zhou Xingxing’s commission, don’t you think? "

This is true. In such a situation, deceiving Ye Ming is already a considerable success. Whether Zhou Xingxing can win Ye Ming is up to Ye Ming.

Hearing this, Wang Zhongjun's eyes also lit up, and he nodded and said: "Yes, yes, we have done our best to do this. Anyway, Zhou Xingxing already owes us a favor."

After saying this, Wang Zhongjun hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Change the topic, Xiaogang, if there is a suitable opportunity for the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" that Ye Ming is going to broadcast, the reporter will not mind being disgusted. Some people will definitely cause an uproar. Tell me your opinion." Feng Xiaogang was straightforward this time, and he knew his friends very well.

Therefore, on such a question, Feng Xiaogang said directly: "I watched part of the rough cut of a very good movie. It is a very good movie. At least from a human perspective, it is very good. I dare not say that it can conquer all the popularity of this movie, but at least it is powerful now. This kind of literary film is a new attempt."

Feng Xiaogang praised Ye Ming's movie as a very good one. After Fang Nan received the news, he told Zhou Xingxing directly. This made Zhou Xingxing's eyes light up. Ye Ming did not directly agree to this matter. This has already happened. It was as expected by Zhou Xingxing.

If Ye Ming insists on the price of four million, then such a thing means that it is impossible to continue the negotiation. Zhou Xingxing will also go home.

As Zhang Xueyou said, you are young and are not afraid of failure.

At this moment, Zhou Xingxing nodded and said: "Then we can talk about it. If it works, there is no problem. You go back and talk to Huayi. We plan to meet tomorrow to see how something like this will go. A result."

Ye Ming agreed to talk, which was already a pretty good start. It proved that Ye Ming was quite interested in his new drama. At this point, Fang Nan nodded and agreed.

If you're not crazy, you can't live. That's what Zhou Xingxing is. His persistence for art is very stubborn, which is definitely not something ordinary people can understand.

It is simply unimaginable that someone with a status like Zhou Xingxing's would actually bow to Ye Ming for one person.

But to Zhou Xingxing, this matter was normal and Ye Ming was suitable for this role. Therefore, Zhou Xingxing tried every means to get Ye Ming to join the team. At two o'clock in the afternoon the next day, this time it was in Huayi Brothers' private conference room. In fact, this place was very difficult to find.

Zhou Xingxing arrived late, seven minutes longer than the scheduled time. At this time, Zhou Xingxing didn't have the airs of a superstar at all, and he didn't feel that Zhou Xingxing's temper might have been misunderstood by a large number of people. As a result, this is actually the case.

Zhou Xingxing said straight to the point: "Mr. Ye, I came to you today because I want to invite you to participate in my new film Shaolin Football Players. I have had this book in my hands for a long time. I want to This script became a real movie, but I lacked my own supporters, and I made one mistake and another. I hope that the best actors can gather together to make this movie. Your salary. I can only offer 200 Wan, I know this price is not your net worth, but that’s all I can offer.”

In fact, before Zhou Xingxing came here, he had been thinking for a long time about how he was going to face Ye Ming. If we just let it go and ask for help, then such a thing will definitely cause a huge disaster.

After all, after Ye Ming negotiates, Zhou Xingxing will use his identity as director to strictly demand Ye Ming to implement it seriously, so Ye Ming cannot feel too proud.

But if you don't tell this matter, it is even more impossible. This time you come here just to get Ye Ming to agree and to give Ye Ming a blow?

It seems like this is not possible.

Therefore, after thinking for a long time, Zhou Xingxing couldn't think of a reason. Finally, as time approaches, it becomes more and more difficult to change this thing.

Therefore, Zhou Xingxing thought for a while and told this matter straightforwardly. He wanted to see how Ye Ming dealt with this situation.

Ye Ming was more straightforward and said directly: "Of course this is negotiable. Although it is impossible to hire me with this remuneration of two million, but I saw Director Zhou's sincerity, so I didn't say I can't agree to it, but when signing the contract, I hope everyone will add that I want to invest in this drama. In this case, I will have an excuse of two million. Because this drama is my investment, therefore, The people in the Screen Actors Guild just can’t say what’s going on.”

Ye Ming's words surprised Zhou Xingxing, and even Wang Zhongjun and Feng Xiaogang were speechless.

Ye Ming is always able to bring surprises to people.

Ye Ming owns shares, which is something Ye Ming has prepared for a long time. (To be continued)
