Chapter 24
On one side, Fopper and Brian were discussing the contract, while on the other side, Yuqing was also discussing the film for Jim and Wen Ziren.
"This movie is actually very strange, since the two protagonists have already been settled. I think we can sign a contract." Saying this, Yuqing took out three copies from his briefcase and different Two contracts, and then pushed two different contracts in front of Wen Ziren, and said: "James, although we are friends, are we talking about business? There are two movie contracts here. Take a look and you are going to choose." which one?"
During the time just now, Yuqing also briefly explained to Wen Ziren their contract with Lionsgate Films.Therefore, Wen Ziren also knew the general agreement between Fopper and Lionsgate.
After a rough look at the two contracts, one is the normal director's salary.Looks ok, four thousand dollars a week, 50.00% down payment.50.00% after the movie is over.In fact, the movie probably won't even last a week.And Wen Ziren's current fame and status are nothing, so this is a very realistic salary.
The other share is dividends, one ten-thousandth of the box office share.In other words, when the box office of this movie reaches 4000 million US dollars, Wen Ziren's salary will be the same as the first one.And unlike the previous one, you can get your salary quickly.This one won't know exactly what he's getting paid until after the movie is released.
"As for you..." Seeing Wen Ziren thinking, Yuqing turned her head and looked at Jim: "Mr. Parsons, this is your contract." Saying that, Yuqing took out another contract .
Jim took the contract and looked up.Unlike Wen Ziren's optional contract, his contract clearly stated that he, Jim Parsons participated in the filming of "Spiritual-Ghost Story" and acted as one of the leading actors, with a salary of [-] US dollars. He gets half of his salary before filming begins and the other half after filming wraps up.
"Are there any questions?" Yuqing asked after seeing Jim finish browsing quickly.
"Of course no problem." Of course Jim knew he had no room for bargaining.He felt that he had already picked up a bargain.So I signed my name on the contract very directly.
On the other hand, Wen Ziren also quickly made his own decision at this time: "I think, a director should always feel confident in his film work, right?" He also quickly signed the contract, of course , is the contract for the movie share.
"It seems that you have finished your conversation?" When Fopper and Brian walked out of the meeting room to find them, they saw Wen Ziren and Jim signing the contract.So Brian just smiled and asked.
"We have a happy cooperation." Without saying anything, Wen Ziren said this to several people.
"Now that everything is ready. I think we can start preparing for shooting after setting a time. You can choose, whether it is tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." In fact, if it is possible, Fopper really wants to start shooting today.But this one is dramatic.He didn't mention it either.
"Parsons needs to familiarize himself with the script. I want to give him two days. We start shooting on time the day after tomorrow. I also need to set up the shooting environment. Although there is only one room, there are some places that I need to modify. In fact, I have An idea can even be promoted in conjunction with the movie, but I don’t know if it will work. But I will try it.” Wen Ziren’s dominance of the director was shown at this time.He thought for a while, and then he opened his mouth to make a decision.And then revealed something curious.
"Good director!"
"No problem, Director!" Both Jim and Fopper nodded in agreement.And the name has also changed.
"Then I'll see you in two days." After saying that, Wen Ziren got up and left.
"Then, I'll go back first too. I missed work for a day, and I don't know how the boss will scold me when I go back?" Jim also said.
"When you become a big star, I think your boss will be proud of you. Even that store will be famous." Fopper said with a smile.
"I hope." With a smile, Jim went away.
"Okay, then let's go back to our respective houses." Seeing that everyone had left.It's not easy for Fopper and Yuqing to stay here, and the two of them also walked out to go home.
"So are you going home with me or..."
"Do you think I'm as idle as you?" Rolling his eyes, Yuqing said, "I'm going to the screenwriters' union now to see if the few damn stories you told me before are in their script library. It has the same plot. I don’t know if those of you who like brain supplements have the same brain wave circuit. So, go home by yourself, maybe you can have another fried dough stick, hehehe..." Speaking Finally, Yuqing smiled wretchedly.
"Again, pay attention to the image." Feeling helpless to Yuqing's rough guy: "Then you go and do your work. I need to ask about the situation on the other side of Yunlong Huaxia when I go home. In fact, I was thinking about my filming. After finishing "Spirituality: Ghost Story", the two of us will go back. After all, Goldfinger Studio also needs us to visit."
"Okay, I will arrange this matter in the itinerary." Yuqing nodded: "Do you need me to take you?" You know, the traffic situation in Hollywood is the same as any big city, it is called congestion.
"No need." After shaking his head, saying that he could go back alone, Fopper separated from Yuqing.
After separating from Yuqing, Fopper did not return home as Yuqing imagined.
Disney Films.He is a subsidiary of Disney Group, a giant in the children's products industry.But the company started with Mickey Mouse, and then began to set foot in the live-action film field. After acquiring the independent film industry giant Miramax, it became one of the eight largest film companies in the world.And in the near future, this company will also acquire Pixar, an animation film company.Become the real king of the field in terms of animated movies.Only DreamWorks can compete with them in this area.
Fopper came here, then picked up the phone: "Alexia, I'm here."
"I know." Alexia's voice came from the phone: "I'm at Disney's headquarters right now. Just come to the front desk and talk to the front desk."
Following Alexia's instructions, Fopper was led by the staff to the interior of the Disney company.
In fact, since Fopper came to the United States, this time the meeting has become better with Alexia.It's just that Fopper always has some miscellaneous things.Therefore, Yu Qingxian can only communicate with Alexia instead of him.As a result, Yuqing learned a lot from Alexia and became Fopper's agent.And Alexia kept asking him to come to Disney, but he didn't know what Alexia was going to do.
When she came to the conference room, Alexia was talking with a middle-aged man.After seeing Fopper, Alexia immediately got up and brought Fopper to the man and introduced, "This is Kenny Ortega, a director."
"Nice to meet you, Director Ortega. In fact, the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics that you took over is really very memorable."
Kenny Ortega, he is a well-known Hollywood screenwriter, director and producer.Of course, this level of fame is not as famous as someone like Cameron;But if we talk about a level.Ortega's popularity is at least second-tier in the director's circle.
"Thank you, I've seen your "Tuner" too." Nodding to Fopper, the status of the two people is quite different at this time.So Ortega wasn't too enthusiastic about Fopper.Although Fopper's acting skills make him optimistic.But a man of yellow race... Ortega felt that the extent to which Fopper could get away with Hollywood was still limited.
"Actually, this time I met Director Ortega. It's because of what you told me about musical movies."
"Oh?" The Buddha remained calm, but he connected many things together in his heart.
musical movie.As the name suggests, it is a film composed of a lot of singing and dancing.The main roles are often played by singers.Mainly rely on singing to portray the characters and unfold the plot.Early musicals were mostly relaxed, beautiful and entertaining stage art films.Musical films highlight the artistic achievements of singing, dancing and music, so the storylines are mostly relatively simple.Around [-].Musical movies are simply all the rage.but now……
"I have to say that my opinions on musical movies are all casual. The current situation of musical movies... I don't need to say that Director Kentega knows it. It's even colder than the Ice Valley, so Literary and historical films can be compared with it."
"Of course." Kent added at this time: "It is precisely because of this that the form of musicals in cinemas is too severe, so I think your point of view is very interesting..."
On one side, Fopper and Brian were discussing the contract, while on the other side, Yuqing was also discussing the film for Jim and Wen Ziren.
