Chapter 446: One Shot and Two Scattered

The dignified actor, the acting school recognized by the public, after reading the script, he did not hesitate and directly expressed his determination to participate.

Such a reaction......

Not only Zhou Mu and Yu Nian were happy, but also the other staff felt happy and honored.

Lin Jiayu's optimism shows the excellence of the script. Such good news can dispel some people's doubts and increase some people's confidence.

That's the impact of superstars.

and Lin Jiayu himself, who has accumulated a reputation for many years.

After all, everyone knows that he doesn't make bad movies.

As long as it is a movie he likes, no matter how bad the quality is, there is a bottom line.

Not being good for favors and relationships is also the main reason why his reputation in the industry is polarized.

Some people admire his integrity, while others resent and dislike his unkindness.

This is how the comments of withdrawn and arrogant people spread. Of course, Lin Jiayu didn't care.

At this time, Zhou Mu said with a smile: "Teacher Lin is willing to join, of course we welcome it." ”

"I don't know which character you have your eye on?" Yu Nian then asked.

In "Super Body 2", it is no longer a one-man show. Theoretically, the savior is the main character, but other characters can still be brilliant.

This is a group drama, which is more conducive to the play of actors.

If some supporting roles are played well, it is not surprising to overshadow the brilliance of the protagonist.

With Lin Jiayu's eyes, it should not be difficult to see. The so-called savior is nothing more than a tool man in "Super Body 2", playing the role of threading the needle.

It is only in the later stages of the movie that some of the protagonists can be saved.

Such a role is not challenging.

I just don't know if Lin Jiayu can see it.

It's just that this question, without waiting for him to answer, the agent next to him immediately blurted out, "Of course it's the actor." ”

Male protagonist......

Yu Nian frowned.

At this moment, Zhou Mu smiled, "Yes." ”

Huh?

Not only Yu Nian, but others were also stunned. After all, they knew that the protagonist of the movie had already been determined to be Zhou Mu.

Now Zhou Mu lightly agreed, what is the situation?

"Mr. Lin's joining is undoubtedly good news for our film. Zhou Mu said bluntly, "When the news spreads, the public must have more expectations for the movie." ”

"It's not a few points, it's very much looking forward to it. ”

The agent smiled confidently: "You have to believe in the appeal of Jiayu." ”

"Yes. ”

Zhou Mu nodded, "Of course we don't doubt this, so we are also very surprised by Mr. Lin's joining." With Mr. Lin's coffee position and popularity, it is a matter of course to play the leading role, and there is no need to doubt it......"

Yu Nian and the others were silent.

They naturally knew that Zhou Mu was saying this to them. If you analyze it carefully, you will know that this is the truth.

Lin Jiayu's joining is harmless for the movie. From their standpoint, of course, they also want to make this happen.

But......

Zhou Mu gave up the male protagonist, isn't it a little aggrieved?

Some people's eyes showed admiration. They feel that Zhou Mu is willing to sacrifice his own interests for the sake of the movie, which is really righteous.

However, there are also people who vaguely understand Zhou Mu's mentality. This movie, even if he doesn't star in it, he is also an investor and producer.

The movie exploded and was a big hit.

The false name is an actor's, and the real benefits must belong to the investor.

To put it bluntly, there is a give-and-take, Zhou Mu wants to make a lot of money, so he naturally doesn't care about the actor. The name of the actor can be worth hundreds of millions?

His thoughts......

Yu Nian was also clear, so he didn't make a sound.

As for the age and character of the actor in the movie, you can change it casually.

Besides, Lin Jiayu is not old, with his current makeup and special effects technology, he can completely turn him into a young man in his twenties and thirties.

None of this is a problem.

"Haha, Director Zhou is an understanding person. ”

The agent smiled and felt that he was in charge of the situation, so he continued: "But there are some things that we still have to discuss in advance to avoid trouble afterwards." ”

"Huh?"

Zhou Mu blinked, "What's the matter?"

The agent glanced at Zhou Mu, "What about Mr. Yang, aren't you there?"

The subtext is, can you call the shots about this?

"Mr. Yang is in Guicheng. ”

Zhou Mu understood, and he didn't get angry, and said with a smile: "It's the same if you tell me, I'll go back and report to her when I go back." Otherwise, you will have to contact you later. ”

"Okay. ”

The agent thought about it and felt that it was okay to sell Zhou Mu a face. He stood up and looked left and right, "Do you want to talk here?"

Zhou Mu understood it at one point, and stood up with a smile, "Director Yu, treat Teacher Lin well, and by the way, ask him about the script......"

"Oh. ”

Yu Nian nodded.

Lin Jiayu looked indifferent.

In fact, everyone understands that this is to talk about treatment. The salary of a superstar, as well as the various treatments in the crew, must have their own requirements.

However, in everyone's impression, Lin Jiayu is not the kind of domineering big name, and he has to treat the crew as a five-star hotel, and he pays attention to eating and drinking. After all, people can even stay in shabby art film crews, so how can they make rude requests?

So in the living room, everyone is in a relaxed mood.

With Lin Jiayu joining, the success rate of this movie will increase by at least two percent.

In the happy atmosphere, someone had the courage to ask Lin Jiayu for an autograph and a group photo. He didn't refuse, and cooperated indifferently.

One by one, they took turns to take a group photo.

Boom!

Caught off guard, the door slammed open.

Everyone looked at it in amazement, and saw the agent rushing back angrily, and said with a gloomy face: "Jia Yu, they are not sincere, let's go!"

“......”

Lin Jiayu frowned slightly, he had doubts in his heart, but based on his trust in the agent, he still chose to leave with the agent.

Before leaving, the agent sneered: "You will regret it." ”

???

A group of people were stunned, looking at each other, dazed and at a loss.

What's going on?

It was obviously good just now, why did you change your face in a blink of an eye?

Some people have a darker mind, wondering if Zhou Mu was reluctant to give up the position of the actor and deliberately messed things up?

Otherwise, it would be Lin Jiayu's agent, Lion, who opened his mouth.

Speculating.

Zhou Mu walked back, his expression was quite calm.

However, Cui Ji knew from his eyes that he was angry, and he was quite curious, "What's wrong, that agent, why did you provoke you?"

"He wants a net box office dividend. Zhou Mu said directly: "He said that with Lin Jiayu's market, it is basically a way of remuneration and dividends. I understand this, and I have no opinion...... It's just that he wants too much. ”

"How much?" said Triggie, surprised.

Zhou Mu raised a finger, "One hundred million plus 10% dividends." ”

"Grass!"

Cui Ji blurted out, "He's poor and crazy?"

The others were also confused.

This, this, this......

It is expected that the other party may ask for a sky-high price. But I didn't expect it to be so ruthless. This is no longer a lion, but an elephant-swallowing snake that is overly greedy.

"He's not sincere at all. ”

Cui Ji was also angry, "Why didn't he rob it." 100 million salary...... Okay, I admit that with the name of Lin Jiayu, even if it is a bit inflated, it is indeed worth the price. ”

"But 10% dividend, how can he say it?"

Cui Ji couldn't believe it, "He's so greedy, why don't you rob the bank?"

"So I disagree. ”

Zhou Mu said in a deep voice: "Generally speaking, if you want to pay a net box office dividend, the salary should not be so high." If you want a high salary, you shouldn't get a net box office dividend. ”

Be......

The others nodded.

The so-called net box office dividend is actually a gambling model.

For example, big-name stars feel that a movie has a future and want to participate in it, but they are not willing to lower their prices to star in it.

At this time, you can reduce the salary, or simply don't pay at all, and then convert the money that meets the value into the box office dividends.

To put it bluntly, it is an investment in disguise.

The movie is profitable, and it makes a lot of money.

Everyone was happy.

If you feel that the movie is not good, and it is difficult to refuse because of some feelings and relationships, then simply quote a sky-high salary, which can be regarded as a euphemistic refusal.

But the other party agreed......

It's just bad money.

Shoot it.

When the bad movie was released, I was scolded.

It's okay, send a press release, do charity, public welfare, and easily launder.

All in all, there are basic routines for similar things, which is also an unspoken rule that everyone silently abides by.

Lin Jiayu's agent obviously doesn't pay attention to the rules.

How can there be such a price?

"I think it is quite appropriate to give him a salary of 20 million yuan, plus a 5% net box office dividend, with Lin Jiayu's worth. ”

Zhou Mu shook his head and said: "But the other party didn't agree to die, and then the conversation collapsed." ”

"5%, that's a lot. Cui Ji muttered: "You know, our movie has the potential to be a big hit." ”

"The domestic box office, plus the overseas box office, is popular across the board. Don't say 5%, even if it's 1%, it's a big number. ”

"What's more, this is a series, and there can be several films. ”

He shook his head and said: "Lin Jiayu has a good eye, but it's a pity that his agent is short-sighted, only cares about immediate interests, and has no long-term plan." ”

The others nodded again, in agreement.

Alas.

White was happy.

A group of people had no choice but to pack up their teacups and go out to work.

The room was empty.

Yu Nian, who had been silent, suddenly asked, "You don't like Lin Jiayu?"

"Huh?"

Zhou Mu tilted his head, as if he didn't hear clearly, "What?"

Yu Nian didn't repeat it, but just analyzed it to himself, "If you are telling the truth, it means that there must be something wrong with Lin Jiayu's agent." ”

"I don't know what the reason is, I deliberately cheated Lin Jiayu like this. ”

He said lightly: "100 million yuan plus 10% dividends, even Yan Anqing doesn't dare to open his mouth like this." ”

"He's such a lion's mouth. Zhou Mu emphasized.

"I know, that's why I decided that there was something wrong with him. Yu Nian glanced at him, "Of course, you also have questions." ”

“?”

Zhou Mu looked innocent.

Yu Nian said: "You saw through his intentions, so you pushed the boat smoothly and deliberately talked to him." What 20 million + 5% box office dividends, it is estimated that there are not so many. Perhaps, another discount will be your counteroffer. ”

"Why? ”

Zhou Mu was very angry: "You are the heart of a villain." ”

"Perhaps. ”

Yu Nian was noncommittal, he stood up, walked to the door, and suddenly said: "Actually, I don't like Lin Jiayu either, his gloomy temperament doesn't match the tone of the movie." ”

“...... Tsk!"

Zhou Mu looked at the background of Yu Nian's departure, and his smile was a little playful.

......

The exterior is low-key, and the interior is comfortable in a nanny car, which is brisk and smooth.

In the spacious space, Lin Jiayu sat opposite the agent. The two men were silent, and the air was a little oppressive.

After a long while, it was actually Lin Jiayu, who was the first to speak: "In my experience, "Super Body 2" is a good movie......

"You don't believe me?" interrupted the broker.

Lin Jiayu denied, "It's not ......"

"The look in your eyes tells me that you suspect that I am deliberately talking about it. "The agent is a bit aggressive.

"Nope. ”

Lin Jiayu looked away, "I just think this is a good opportunity." I read the script of "Super Body 2", they really didn't lie, the first part is really a prequel, and the second part is the real beginning......"

"But the probability of their failure is as high as 70 percent. ”

The agent sneered, but his tone softened, "Of course, if they are sincere, even if the movie is doomed, I won't stop you from doing the next." ”

"The question is, that ...... Brat. ”

The agent said angrily: "He...... Look down on you. A salary of 10 million, plus a 1% net box office dividend, is an insult to you. ”

"Oh!"

Lin Jiayu's face did not fluctuate.

He doesn't care about that.

If he cares about money, he won't linger in literary films. If it weren't for the outbreak of "Super Body" overseas, he would not have been interested and wanted to see the success of "Super Body 2".

Unexpectedly, the plot and setting of "Super Body 2" are better than he imagined.

Pity......

Lin Jiayu glanced at the agent and sighed silently in his heart.

"Jiayu, listen to me, I won't harm you. ”

The agent said in his heart: "I admit that when that kid was paid, I did have a bit of a meaning to play on the topic." But he can be redeemed, I have given him enough time to change his words, but he is obsessed with it. ”

"It's so insincere......"

The agent snorted: "I suspect that this protagonist, he wants to play it himself, so he tried his best to sabotage this cooperation." ”

Lin Jiayu's expression was indifferent, and he couldn't see what he was thinking. The agent was not weak-hearted, and said frankly: "I am pushing the boat along the river, and everyone knows it, and they will break up in one shot." ”

“...... But that kid is very insidious, and I'm afraid he'll hit him up. ”

The agent said to himself, "No, I have to be prepared to prevent him from smearing you and damaging your reputation." ”

Lin Jiayu suddenly asked, "Where are we going now?"

"Hmm!"

The agent thought for a while before saying, "Brilliant Pictures has an invitation, do you want to take a look?"

"What's the situation?" asked Lin Jiayu.

"Director Tang Yuan wants to make a new work. The agent smiled lightly: "He thinks it is more pleasant to cooperate with you, and plans to continue the relationship." ”

"By the way, I heard that his investment in this new film is actually not small, and it is also a heavy industry blockbuster aimed at overseas markets. ”

The agent gushed endlessly: "The brilliant distribution channel, you should know, plus Director Tang Yuan's ability, if the script is not bad, the success rate of the movie is at least more than seventy percent, I suggest you next." ”

“......”

Lin Jiayu frowned slightly, and stretched out again, "Okay!"
