Kang Hui picked up Chen Qiang's stewed mushrooms with chopsticks and said: "The reason why the share of "Detective" can arrive so quickly is because the producer has something to ask us for a good sale. ”

Kang Hui put down his chopsticks and said with a smile: "The producer wanted to finalize the performance contract for "Detective 2" with us earlier, but last time you mentioned it: Wang Ruozhou contacted you and said that you should not talk about it first, so I kept looking for excuses to drag this matter.

But after I shirked it two or three times in a row, producer Tian Lin also realized that we were deliberately dragging this matter. So today, after the payment arrived, he made a phone call to me. He said that if we could finalize the contract for the performance of "Detective 2" earlier, he could promise us a more sincere salary. The initial figure for the salary was 12 million, but if we finalize it by Wednesday next week, the salary will be 15 million. ”

Chen Minhao nodded and said, "Today is Thursday, and there are almost 5 days left until next Wednesday." Tian Lin also came to me this morning, and he said that Wang Ruozhou has been dragging it because Wang Ruozhou not only wants to be an actor in "Detective 2", but also wants to be an investor in "Detective 2". He wants to invest 30 million, accounting for 30%, and the salary is calculated separately, but the producer has always disagreed. ”

Kang Hui nodded and said, "The producer will definitely not agree." The box office of "Detective 2" will enjoy the dividends of "Detective 1". Now that "Detective 1" is a box office hit, and the word-of-mouth is also there, as long as "Detective 2" is not particularly badly filmed, it will definitely not lose money.

If Wang Ruozhou wanted to invest in "Detective 1" and could share the investment risk of the producer, the producer would definitely welcome it. But now that he wants to do this kind of lucrative business, the producers will definitely not be happy. And the final cost of "Detective 2" must be above 100 million, with an investment of 30 million, accounting for 30%, which is a bit greedy. ”

Chen Minhao nodded and said, "Sister Kang, what do you think, do you think we should just agree to it, or continue to drag it out." ”

Kang Hui did not answer positively, but began to analyze the current situation: "The box office of "Detective 1" is a big hit, if "Detective 2" wants to continue the trend of "Detective 1", the best way is to create it by the original team: the original screenwriter, the original director, and the original starring.

If the two male protagonists are played by different people, the movie will be completely changed, and the audience may not buy it at all, so the filmmaker must hope that both of you can continue to perform. But if the salary expectations of the two actors are too high to be met, "Detective 2" must keep at least one of the two of you.

So you are now at the core of the negotiations between the two sides, and if you promise Wang Ruozhou to continue to drag, Wang Ruozhou will have the initiative. If you sign a performance contract with the producer, the producer has the initiative. So what do you think?"

Chen Minhao sighed and said, "Are there many cases like this in the entertainment industry?

Kang sighed back and said: "How can there be fewer cases like this? Which cooperation in the entertainment industry is not always beautiful on the surface, and bloody under the negotiation table? But this time this matter is really difficult to do, even if you are on the side of the producer, Wang Ruozhou will not necessarily bow his head, and vice versa." Generally speaking, if the negotiations reach an impasse, they can only drag on.

In fact, dragging is also an option. The advantage of dragging is that when you are more popular and your acting skills are better, you also have higher bargaining power. But dragging is also risky, dragging this IP will be cold. ”

Chen Qiang asked puzzledly beside him: "Hey, what do the two sides think, wouldn't it be good for each to take a step back, the movie will be good for both parties! If the movie is really cold, won't it be a lose-lose?"

Kang Hui looked at Chen Minhao and said, "Chen Minhao, do you know the reason?"

Chen Minhao sighed and nodded.

Kang Hui stretched his waist and said, "Then Chen Minhao, you can explain." ”

Chen Minhao put down his chopsticks and said: "In fact, both Wang Ruozhou and the producer want to maximize their own interests. However, in the operation of society, both sides of the cooperative game are from the perspective of self-interest, and the result is sometimes harmful to others and not to themselves. ”

Chen Qiang looked incredulous and questioned, "Why? Everyone is not stupid?"

Chen Minhao said with a smile: "It's because I'm not stupid, I'm all smart people." Have you ever heard a word called Nash equilibrium?"

Chen Qiang was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

Chen Minhao took a sip of water from the glass and said, "Then let me give you a classic case of Nash equilibrium." Now there are two thieves who have been caught stealing together, and the two are being interrogated by the police in different rooms.

Every thief is faced with a situation in which if a thief confesses to the crime and hands over the dirty, then both thieves are found guilty. If the other thief also confessed, the two men were sentenced to 8 years in prison each. If a thief confesses, and the other thief does not confess and chooses to deny, the thief who denies will be sentenced to an additional 2 years, and the confessed thief will be sentenced to 8 years in reduced sentence and immediately released. However, if both of them denied it, the police could not convict them of theft due to insufficient evidence, and they could only be sentenced to one year in prison each according to the method of entering a private house. ”

Chen Minhao smiled and asked Chen Qiang: "If you are a thief, what will you do?"

Chen Qiang: Uh-huh, uh-huh, he didn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

Chen Minhao said: "For the two thieves as a whole, the biggest benefit is that both of them deny it, and the end is that everyone is only sentenced to 1 year." But neither side is unsure of the other's choice and suspects that the other side will sell itself to protect itself.

The thief's calculation is that if the other party confesses and I deny it, I will have to go to prison for 10 years, but if I confess it will only be 8 years at most, and if he denies, if I deny it, I will be sentenced to one year. But if I confessed, I could be released, and he would be in prison for 10 years. Considering the above situations, whether the other party confesses or not, it is a good deal for me to confess. Both thieves would use such brains, and in the end, both chose to confess, and both were sentenced to 8 years in prison. ”

Chen Qiang was stunned and said, "This is too complicated!"

Kang Hui said: "The reality scenario is much more complicated than this. The so-called classic case is actually a simplification of many conditions, and now the two sides can communicate, the choices of both sides are more diverse, and the more both sides think about it. ”

Chen Qiang yawned and said, "I can't turn my head around this kind of thing." ”

"I've been having a lot of headaches lately. Kang rubbed her temples and said with a wry smile, "I have a little insomnia at night. ”

Chen Qiang, who was still sluggish just now, suddenly became energetic and said, "Insomnia, Sister Kang, are you still in Kyoto tomorrow?" I don't understand what you are saying, but I can make you a tofu crucian carp soup." Crucian carp soup has a peculiar relieving effect on stress and lack of sleep. ”

Kang Hui nodded vigorously and said, "Boil." ”

After dinner, the three of them returned to the living room.

Chen Qiang put two plates of freshly washed fruit on the dining table in the living room.

Kang Hui picked a washed apple from it and said, "This matter is very complicated for Wang Ruozhou and the producer. But for us, it's not complicated. ”

Kang Hui peeled with a fruit knife and said: "For us, it is actually a matter of standing on the side, whether we are on the side of the producer or on the side of Wang Ruozhou." Fupin Chinese
