my time as a director

"It doesn't matter much, as long as there is no tobacco brand."

"However, Director Li, the document also said that movies and TV dramas with more smoking scenes will not be included in the various movie and TV drama evaluation activities held by the General Administration."

Du Yang raised a concern. I am not a drug god, but a realistic film. Although it is a commercial film, this theme is relatively easy to win awards. In terms of qualifications, Li Qian is definitely enough.

Li Qian shook his head, "It doesn't matter whether the award is awarded or not. Besides, it means that it is not included in the evaluation activities organized by the General Administration. The Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers are all sponsored by the Film Association and the Federation. How to define it is not a matter of Optoelectronics."

Lianke is not owned by photoelectric tubes, and the competent unit is the Propaganda Department.

Winning an award doesn't mean much, and it's not about the movie itself.

In the classic theme spy war film like The Wind, only Su Youpeng won the Best Supporting Actor in the Hundred Flowers Awards last year, and the two leading actresses were not even nominated for a best actress.

You know, even Fan Binbin from October Siege and Shu Qi from If You Are the One have been nominated for best actress.

This year's Golden Rooster Award is also very difficult, and there is a high probability of returning empty-handed.

The relationship between the couple is actually more important than the movie itself.

Don't look at Ma Xiaogang being scolded by people in the art world every year. In fact, those who have connections with the Federation have joined the Federation long ago. They are a national committee member of the Federation and participate in various activities every year.

All kinds of domestic films, operas, and even the Golden Eagle Awards are sponsored by Lianhe.

Li Qian didn't have the time to join the League, it was unnecessary, it was useless, and he was too lazy to make money.

"That's right." Du Yang nodded. She has been in the industry for many years, and she knows everything about Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers very well. Now it has completely changed.

"By the way, Qing Yu Nian's film and television copyright has been taken down, and Gui Chudeng may be a bit troublesome."

"What? How much does Sheng University cost?"

"That's not true. What Sheng University said was that the first four parts of this series, that is, the full copyright of Ghost Blowing Lantern 1 was indeed bought out by Sheng University at a price of 10. Not long after, Ghost Blowing Lantern 07 in early 2 Before starting to write, the author transferred the full copyright of Ghost Blowing Lantern 150 to Sheng University at a price of 2 million, and the author will receive 40% of the remuneration for film and television adaptation.”

"40?"

Li Qian looked surprised, how can there be such a reason, no matter how big the author is, it is impossible to have a profit of 40, even if the cost is 40 after deducting the cost, there is no such precedent in China.

Sheng University is throwing coins, who would buy it?

Not to mention the author, even the biggest director in the world can't get 40% of the share.

Du Yang smiled wryly, "That's why I was also surprised. I stopped the negotiation first and asked the legal department to study the contract between the two parties."

"Show me the original of this clause."

Li Qian took a look at this clause, that is, the author transferred the full copyright of the last four works to Sheng University at a price of 150 million. If the film and television copyright of the work is sold, the author will get 40 of the adaptation fee.

The key lies in these 40.

"However, it's obvious that the 40 refers to the proceeds from the sale of film and television copyrights, not the proceeds from the movies, right?" Li Qian asked with some uncertainty, and he didn't know much about the law.

"On the surface, it is like this, but in order to prevent future disputes, it is better to find out a little bit." Zhong Lifang said.

At this time, someone from the legal department came and reported their analysis of the contract.

It is indeed 40% of the income from the sale of film and television copyright by Sheng University, not 40% of the income generated by the film and television drama.

That is to say, Sheng University sells the film and television copyright to other companies, and the copyright fee will be 40 to the author, which has nothing to do with the producer who purchased the film and television copyright and turned it into a film and television.

If there is no need to do so, the second half will have to sell for 250 million, and the university can only get 150 million. If you don’t lose money, you can only get 1000 million if you sell 600 million.

However, how to operate has nothing to do with Li Qian, as long as the copyright is not disputed.

"That's fine, let's continue talking, how is the person in charge of the theater?" Li Qian asked again.

"Huang Yan is in contact with Gao Jun, vice president of the New Film Federation, and he seems to have expectations. He wants to see if the management system will be adjusted due to the plummeting market share in the past few years." Du Yang briefly explained the situation. .

"Take your time." Li Qian nodded.

If you have an idea, you are basically stable. Just after the restructuring, you have slipped from the leader in the industry to the fifth. Although changing the management and changing the administrative management system is the best choice, doesn't this mean that the above did something wrong before?

This is impossible. Sometimes I would rather make a mistake to the end than admit my mistake. Anyway, it is the public that loses.

"Okay, it's okay, I'm leaving first, Mr. Du, you are busy."

Such a little thing, another morning passed.

However, when Li Qian was about to leave, Teng Huatao came.

The two parties have already confirmed the 33-day cooperation of broken love. At this time, Teng Huatao was a little embarrassed to see Li Qian.

Of course, it wasn't because of Li Qian, but because she told Wang Jinghua to replace her actor Bai Baihe's role two days ago, and Wang Jinghua asked him out that night.

Originally, it was his own fault, and the agreed role was replaced. The two have been friends for many years. After meeting, Teng Huatao felt so embarrassed.

This led to an inexplicable embarrassment when seeing Li Qian.

However, for Li Qian, a director who has created a box office record of [-] million, Teng Huatao, who wants to enter the big screen, still has a very low profile.

"Hello, Director Li." Teng Huatao quickly stepped forward to say hello. This was the first time they spoke, and Du Yang was the one who talked to him before.

"Director Teng, please sit down. How is the film preparation going? If you have any questions, just ask Mr. Du." Li Qian smiled and asked him to sit down.

Teng Huatao sat down upright. Compared with the casualness in front of Huang Zhongjun, it was much more formal now, because he was not familiar with Li Qian after all.

Moreover, after so many years of relationship, his father's contacts have helped Huayang so much, and he has also filmed a phenomenal TV series, but he still refuses to invest more than 1000 million yuan.

People's hearts, Teng Huatao has seen through it, so don't mix emotions when talking about business.

He laughed and said, "Don't worry, Director Li, I've been preparing for 33 Days of Broken Relationship for more than half a year, and it's already perfected. There is no problem with the November 11 release, and Lao Zhang has also started to help me choose locations."

It's absurd to say that this is obviously not Huayang's film, but the producer is Du Yang. The former colleague of Huayang helped him prepare the film. This is also for this purpose, and Zong Shuai, who is also a colleague and friend in Huayang, is looking for other supporting roles.

It made Teng Huatao feel like he was still making films for the Huang brothers.

"By the way, Hua Tao, do you want Director Li to be the producer of your film, and then help you promote it?" Du Yang asked suddenly.

this...

If Li Qian was named as the producer, Li Qian's name would definitely be promoted before the release. As a director, the audience would probably ignore him easily.

Several films supervised by Li Qian, from the time of publicity before the release to the release of the film, a considerable part of the news about the film will appear Li Qian's name, those who don't know think it is Li Qian's film.

Didn't the media and audience suspect it before, but it was actually Li Qian's film, and the director was just a tool.

Although Su Lun's two films in a row became big sellers as more films were produced, the voice disappeared.

Knowing that after the movie is sold, Li Qian will definitely take some of his limelight away.
