Chapter 104: Unsuccessful

Qian Mei arrived at the home of Gan Jing, who is currently a ghost in white film and television.

Self-written, self-directed and self-acted, as well as ...... Self-funded.

This is not a ghost, what is a ghost?

At the company meeting, in addition to analyzing the reasons for the box office rise of the film "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" in the second week, it is natural to have an analysis of Gan Jing.

To say that in the past, this film was only regarded as a small cost, and attention and resources were not much, but now, a small cost has created a big box office, and it would be too unqualified not to invest 200% of the attention.

And as the core character of this film, Gan Jing deserves 15% of the attention from this 200% for analysis.

Editing, directing, acting, these things on the bright side are not mentioned for the time being, and the meeting talked about a detail that has not been taken to everyone's heart in the past, self-fundraising.

Qian Mei just asked a question: "If any of you are in a situation like his, can you be so determined, confident, and decisive to even mortgage the house to make a movie?"

Someone weakly raised his hand and said, "Didn't he withdraw the money from his house?"

Qian Mei's eyes widened: "Let you come, do you dare?"

Well, such a question doesn't really make much sense.

Especially in the case of a box office hit, people at the company meeting will not be disappointed, not to mention, from raising funds to building the crew to expelling the assistant director and substantially leading the publicity strategy, all kinds of behaviors are really difficult for ordinary people to do.

There may be something to blame for this thing before the box office comes out, but once the box office comes out, it is meaningless, so I can only nod my head and say yes.

However, unlike some people's minds that are suppressed by the box office, Qian Mei is sincerely convinced as a participant, and Mr. Liu's repeated instructions to reach cooperation may be out of interest considerations, but her heart is full of convincing her film talent.

Knock, knock, knock.

"Gan Dao, congratulations, congratulations. Qian Mei threw out good words the moment the door opened.

Gan Jing smiled and thanked him: "Happy, happy." "Before I came, the producer had already talked about the box office.

"Director Gan, your smile this time is much brighter than last time. Qian Mei half-jokingly, "Can this week's box office meet Director Gan's psychological expectations?"

Gan Jing smiled slightly.

Qian Mei didn't dare to take his "slight smile" as usual, and immediately asked keenly: "Does Director Gan think the box office can rise again?"

"If it doesn't go up, it won't fall?" Gan Jing asked rhetorically.

Qian Mei shook her head and said, "You know that's not what I said. ”

"Okay, then tell me what are the new conditions for this trip?" Gan Jing didn't want to delay the time, so he asked directly.

Qian Mei was already familiar with Gan Jing's one-on-one approach, but she was not in a hurry.

"Where's Sisi?"

Gan Jing pouted: "Sleeping in the bedroom, children sleep more." ”

Qian Mei took out a thick red envelope.

Gan Jing smiled: "How many red envelopes did the company seal for me?"

"This is what I gave Sisi. Qian Mei glanced at her, "I forgot about the hurry I came last time, and it just so happened that I haven't made up for the New Year's Pass today, so I can call me an aunt." ”

Gan Jing blinked, this sound was a lot.

"It's yours. Qian Mei took out a thin red envelope again, "Anyway, you can call me too." ”

Gan Jing almost sprayed rice.

Qian Mei added: "Call me Sister Qian, then I will take it back from the company for you." ”

Gan Jingle took it, pinched the red envelope, and asked, "Check?"

Qian Mei said yes.

Gan Jing didn't ask much, nodded, and naturally accepted it.

Qian Mei couldn't help but ask, "How many do you guess?"

"Two million?" Gan Jing asked calmly.

Qian Mei was a little crying and laughing, and a little sneering, she is worthy of being a person who can make a good film, and the way he opens the script must be different from everyone else.

"Eight hundred and eighty thousand. Qian Mei said, "It's auspicious." ”

Gan Jing nodded, well, it's quite auspicious, enough to buy a few cars, hey, use Geely money to buy Geely cars, I think it's okay.

He said slowly and flatly, "Thank you." ”

"Less?" Qian Mei joked, "There will be box office dividends in the future." ”

Gan Jing shook his head: "It's quite a lot." However, no matter what the red envelope is, the company earns more anyway, so isn't there anything to be excited about?"

“......”

Qian Mei felt that it was better to talk about the conditions earlier, she took a sip of tea and said: "It's no problem for this film to have a box office of over 100 million, but the company now feels a little regretful, this budget of 10 million can make such a film for Director Gan, what if it is 20 million, 30 million or even 50 million?"

Gan Jing shook his head again: "Don't call me Gan Dao, just call me by my name." The budget of this film is actually okay, the proportion of actors' salaries is not normal, mainly because the publicity and distribution are not in place, if you can get an extra 10 million publicity and distribution to do a good job in scheduling the film, the results will be higher. ”

"10 million publicity, 10 million production, I don't seem to have heard of such a 1:1 work. Qian Mei smiled.

Gan Jing said as a matter of course: "Because I didn't get paid, otherwise how much do you think my performance will increase the production cost?"

Qian Mei was stunned, standing at this point in time, the value of Gan Jing's starring role must be different from what it used to be, and it is not an exaggeration to give him 10 million for this kind of achievement.

It's just that the salary of movie actors has never been based on acting skills, but on coffee positions.

Otherwise, the salary of so many drama bones will not go up.

If you go back in time, don't ...... The company will probably still choose as it is, after all, no one can predict the prophet, and no one can be so sure that this piece will make a lot of money.

Perhaps, an important reason why Gan Jing was reluctant to agree to cooperate was that the contract given by the company was too strict, so that he now has a knot.

Qian Mei pondered and observed Gan Jing's young man's expression, and was a little hesitant in her heart, if she said that others had a big knot, she felt that eight or nine were inseparable, but Gan Jing's consistent performance was too bad according to the script.

"Gan Jing, counting this time, I can also be regarded as a three-way house. Qian Mei recounted in the most sincere tone, "Two films, one with 30 million and one with 50 million, such an opportunity is actually very good in the industry." ”

Gan Jing knew that this was the producer's representative of Bai Shi Film and Television to convey the meaning, he thought about it, last time it seemed to say that the two films were 30 million, but this time, the conditions can not be said to be not much improved, nor can it be said that there is no sincerity.

It's just, in the final analysis, I just want to be casual now, is the movie more important or the daughter important?

Well, both are important, so let's take a look at them again.

Gan Jing still smiled slightly, and said something similar to last time: "I'm not in a hurry to shoot the next one, I'm a primary school student in the film and television industry, and I have more to learn." Let's just wait for the box office of the movie to come out. ”

This time, Qian Mei learned a lesson and didn't stop talking, and asked simply: "Since you are not satisfied, you said okay, what kind of budget do you want to make a movie, aren't things all discussed?"

Gan Jing blinked vigorously: "How about science fiction?"

Qian Mei frowned: "There is no market for science fiction films." ”

She pressed back, "What about the budget?"

Gan Jing controlled his expression: "How about using 300 million to "The Wandering Earth"?"

"Hehehe, you're kidding again. Qian Mei smiled, but her expression froze in the middle of the laugh, fake, true, arrogant, crazy?

At this moment, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Gan Xuesi ran out in a small pajama with hazy eyes.

Qian Mei unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly beckoned: "Sisi, come over and get the red envelope." ”

Gan Xuesi stopped running towards his father, looked at his father and then at Qian Mei.

Gan Jing gave her daughter a permissive look.

Gan Xuesi walked in front of Qian Mei with small steps, smiled sweetly, and said crisply: "Happy New Year!
