I'm wrong with this idol

Shang Yun: "300 million."

Shang Yun: "After deducting the 40 film salary, 260 million."

Qi Yue and Lei Wang looked at each other silently.

He doesn't study much, don't fool him, 300 million is enough to make a big online movie, right?

Now Qi Lele has completely figured out why Shang Yun chose him.

He can't afford to invite others.

Qin Shen asked again: "Is this the budget given by the production company?"

Yi Qian saw Shang Yun crazily revealing himself, and really wanted to rush over and cover Shang Yun's mouth. Before he could do anything, Shang Yun continued, "My budget."

After Shang Hong imposed economic sanctions on Shang Yun, he took back the luxury car and several large bank cards in Shang Yun's name, and the credit cards were naturally gone.The 300 million is the pocket money he saved from childhood, the scholarship during school, the prize money he won from participating in various short film competitions, and a small part of the living expenses he saved from the help of Mrs. Shang.

There is no investment without investment, and he shoots with his own money.

Yi Qian was speechless.He shouldn't be at the table, he should be under the table.

Hearing Shang Yun's student-like honesty, Qin Shen almost couldn't help laughing.

Qin Shen understood.The so-called production company in Hong Kong is probably to create a production name so that the film can be released legally in Hong Kong, and there is no such thing as really giving money and effort to Shang Yun.In fact, Shang Yun doesn't care about the box office of the Hong Kong release at all, what he wants is to be able to participate in foreign exhibitions without taking the Dragon Label.

Those who show their cards so undisguisedly at the negotiating table will usually be eaten up.When Qin Shen just graduated and returned to China to start a business, he was not so stupid.

But Shang Yun is different from him.He is a businessman and Shang Yun is a director.

Directors who don't know how to do business are not good businessmen, but they are more likely to make good works.

On this negotiating table, it is enough to have him alone who knows how to do business.

"Let's do this," Qin Shen said, "We don't want the 40 yuan salary."

Qi Yue and Lei Wang Qiqi turned to look at him: "?"

Really friendly?Idle is also idle?

"Guchao Culture will invest an additional 500 million yuan, and the final proceeds, including box office and copyright dividends will be distributed proportionally," Qin Shen said. "Qi Leyi's technology shares will account for 15.8% of the dividends. What do you think of Director Shang?"

The air was quiet again.

Qi Le was taken aback, but Lei Wang's mouth curled up into a smile—this trick, it seems, is a bit clever?

15.8% of dividends, equivalent to Qi Le's salary is 150 million.

With such a light touch of Qin Shen's upper and lower lips, he doubled Qi Lele's salary by five times, and Shang Yun didn't need to pay out immediately. This turn of events is worthy of being a man with the halo of the boss.

Lei Wang thought about it, and suddenly panicked.

Wait - they have to drop 500 million in first? ? ?

"Of course," Qin Shen added, "how to operate this investment will have to be negotiated with the production company."

If it is directly controlled by the main cast of Guchao Culture, it will become a mainland production.

Both Shang Yun and Yi Qian fell into deep thought.

Of course they understood what Qin Shen meant. A salary of 40 yuan is not enough to squeeze between teeth.This vote is either not to do it, or to have a big game.

Guchao Culture invested 500 million yuan, plus Qi Lele's 150 million film remuneration, the total production cost was 950 million yuan, Guchao Culture accounted for 650 million yuan, more than two-thirds, suddenly became the big head, Shang Yun lost the initiative instead .It's not that he doesn't care about this.

However, Guchao Culture also bears great risks in this plan.Once Shang Yun’s debut work hits the market, the box office in Hong Kong is not guaranteed, and overseas copyrights cannot be sold, so whether it is Guchao Culture’s 650 million or Shang Yun’s 300 million, it will all be in vain, and no one will take the initiative. Meaning, everyone is a friendship that hugs and dies together.

Therefore, what Qin Shen meant was that he believed in Shang Yun.

I also believe in Qi Yue.

He has read the script and watched Qi Lexi's plays countless times.Before coming to talk about the contract today, he even dug out all the short films Shang Yun had made and watched them all.

He trusts his own eyes.

All profitable investments are, in essence, venture capital.

Qi Lele and Lei Wang stopped talking, and looked at the two opposite people together with Qin Shen, quietly waiting for an answer.

Shang Yun didn't say a word, and there was no expression on his face.Yi Qian rubbed his little hands under the table at a loss, waiting for Shang Yun to make a final decision.

Because of the presence of outsiders, it was difficult for him to say something clearly, but in fact, his heart was roaring already - he must agree!What else is there to consider?

What is the concept of 300 million filming?It is also the level of students' graduation works.Shang Yun was really cornered by his old man, and he had to fight with all his savings, just to fight the old man to the end.Otherwise, according to Shang Yun's original idea, the production cost would start at least 1500 million.

Now Guchao Culture has handed them a torch in a desperate situation, and also settled the salary of the male lead by the way.Guchao Culture's requirement to take the initiative is certain, unless the Shang family personally pays for Shang Yun, otherwise, how the investment will be drawn will be determined by the father of the funder in the end.

"Yes." Shang Yun finally spoke.

Before Lei Wang and Yi Qian breathed a sigh of relief, Shang Yun said again: "There is a condition."

Lei Wang and Yi Qian's nerves became tense again.

Qin Shen smiled: "Director Shang, please tell me."

Shang Yun: "I have the final say on the script."

Lei Wang: "..."

Qi Yue: "..."

Yi Qian: "..."

Yi Qian carefully looked at Qin Shen's face, feeling that the sweat on his forehead could not be wiped off.Director Shang, this is what you mean, but can you express it a little more tactfully?Sitting opposite now is our only choice as a sponsor, Dad, did you make it?

Qin Shen didn't answer right away, but pondered for a while, "After all, Director Shang wrote the script himself, and Director Shang's request is reasonable."

Lei Wang opened his mouth slightly, and couldn't help but want to interject—how could the employer who spent a lot of money be so wronged?His family, Qi Lexi, didn't even ask for a salary to play the leading role, so he couldn't comment on the script?What if the director asked him to run naked?

Without waiting for Lei Wang to say anything, Qin Shen continued: "But movies are different from novels. Movies are completed by a team."

Yi Qian's heart skipped a beat—he knew there was a "but" waiting.

Qin Shen: "In this way, we respect Director Shang's right to make the final decision on the script, and hope Director Shang also respects our right to put forward opinions on the script, how about it?"

What he said was watertight and reasonable, and it all explained that the "final decision" was in Shang Yun's hands. Shang Yun thought about it and thought about it again, but there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.

"Okay." Shang Yun nodded, "This should be included in the contract."

Qin Shen smiled: "Of course."

Not only the employer's father, he respects everyone's right to express opinions on his works.However, whether to listen or not is his business.

After returning home, Qi Le could not help but ask Qin Shen: "Qin Huomu."

Qin Shen: "Huh?"

Qi Le: "Let's throw in 500 million all at once, will the company's cash flow be okay?"

Qin Shen is no longer the prodigal son who could easily give him millions of dollars in advertising space with a wave of his sleeves. Selling cars and watches with Qi Le's pitiful savings, the ancient trend culture is now It is also a little stronger than the leather bag company.

Qin Shen looked at Qi Yue and smiled, "I said to invest 500 million, but I didn't say to invest 500 million at one time."

Qi Yue: "...Huh?"

"A lot of expenses in the filming process are incurred in the middle and later stages," Qin Shen said, "such as the lead actor's salary, post-production and publicity, it is not necessary to have all the funds in place at the early stage. Shang Yun's 300 million is enough Coping with basic expenses for a long time."

"..." Qi Le was speechless for a moment.

"Does Shang Yun know that you are fooling him like this?" Qi Le asked.

"How can this be called cheating," Qin Shen said solemnly, "This is common sense in business."

Qi Le smiled, "Does Director Shang know this kind of common sense?"

Qin Shen: "I don't know."

Qi Le is still smiling.

It's because he knew Qin Shen that he didn't behave like this.

Qin Shen spread his hands, "Others can't blame me if they don't know common sense, right? Children have to learn to grow up."

Strictly speaking, Qin Shen is not a fool, he will give the money that should be paid, it's just a time difference.For businessmen, time is indeed money. If you can get a loan, you don’t have to pay in cash, and if you can pay in installments, you don’t have to pay the full amount. It’s a good thing to pay a quarter, a month, or even a week later. Money is in your own hands. One day, one more day of work can be done, and one more day of credit can be earned.Doing business has never been based on "saving", but "rolling"-money begets money, and profit is rolling.

There is still a long process to go before the contract is formally signed.Not only Qi Le is willing to sign a performance contract, but Guchao Culture also has to sign an investment contract with a production company in Hong Kong. Qin Shen will often go to Hong Kong with Shang Yun.During this period, Qin Shen personally checked with Shang Yun about the various details of the filming.Shang Yun told Qin Shen that he planned to spend a year and a half filming "Murderer" and participate in the Berlin Film Festival in the following year.

Once the film starts, until the work is completely completed, the male lead Qi Le must concentrate on this film and this role, and it is forbidden to intervene.

This should also be written in the contract.

As soon as Qin Shen returned to the company and conveyed Shang Yun's words, Lei Wang went crazy, "A year and a half??? Still not letting the show go??? I am happy that I can't get any good resources now, and I just disappeared for a year Half? After a year and a half, will the entertainment circle still find him???"

Qin Shen also frowned and said nothing.He knew that Shang Yun was going for the award, but he didn't expect it to be at such a pace.One and a half years is indeed too long, and it will not only affect Qi Lele's acting career, but also the return cycle of Guchao Culture's investment.

In case the prize is not won and Qi Lexi remains incognito for a year and a half for nothing, what will he do afterwards?Even the reputation of Black Fire is gone, really start from scratch?Even if he is willing, is his age allowed?
