Chen Minhao raised his head and looked at Jessica's expectant eyes.

He told himself in his heart, please start your show.

Chen Minhao put down the knife and fork in his hand and said with a smile: "You say." ”

Jessica rubbed her black-rimmed glasses and said, "Love Before Dawn is a small-budget movie. I invested $3 million, and your company invested $2 million. The previously agreed sharing ratio was 65% for me and 35% for her. After the filming of the film is completed, excluding post-production costs, about $800,000 is spent on publicity. ”

Although Chen Minhao knew this information very well, his eyes were full of curiosity and he listened carefully with a serious face.

He's a good actor, that's right!

Jessica continued, "$800,000 is actually very little for the promotion of the movie. So, now Kang Hui came up with a solution, with her company taking full responsibility for the promotion and distribution, and finally adjusting the share ratio according to the box office of the film. ”

Jessica took out her mobile phone, opened the memo, handed it to Chen Minhao, and said, "The specific ratio is like this, you can take a look." ”

[Box office Jessica Conn back.]

10,000,000 and below 65% 35%

10,000,000~15,000,000 60% 40%

15 million~30 million 50% 50%

30 million~50 million 35% 65%

50 million and below 25% 75%】

Chen Minhao nodded, took the phone, did not speak, he lowered his head and stared at the screen, his brows tightened, as if he was thinking seriously.

Jessica didn't interrupt Chen Minhao's thinking, and she was very relieved to see Chen Minhao thinking seriously.

He didn't shirk it, nor did he perfunctory, but he was thinking seriously, his previous judgment was really not wrong---- Chen Minhao is really a good person.

After about two minutes, Chen Minhao raised his head and said, "I don't think this plan is particularly suitable. ”

Jessica was stunned for a moment and said, "Why isn't it appropriate?"

In fact, before Jessica asked Chen Minhao, she also asked friends in the industry.

Their feedback was that the proposal was not very sincere, but it was not harsh and was acceptable.

First of all, according to this plan, Jessica does not have to invest more money, which reduces the risk.

Secondly, in order to get a high share, Kang Hui's company will definitely try to publicize it, and after the box office is high, although Jessica does not earn as much as Kang Hui's company. But as long as the box office of the movie "Love is In" is high, Jessica, as the director, editor-in-charge, producer and investor, will always be profitable.

Finally, although after the box office exceeds 50 million US dollars, Kang Hui's share ratio will be very high and will make a lot of money, but it is too difficult for a low-cost romance film to exceed 50 million US dollars at the box office!

And even if the box office exceeds 50 million US dollars, after deducting about 30% of the money to the theater chain, she can probably still earn 8.75 million US dollars, and after tax deductions, there will be about 6 million, which is already twice her investment!

Jessica had already planned to accept it, and now she came to ask Chen Minhao again, just to ask for peace of mind, but she never expected Chen Minhao to say that this plan was unreasonable.

When Chen Minhao saw Jessica's surprised expression, he knew that the fish had bitten into the hook.

Chen Minhao said in a deep voice: "This plan ignores a risk. didn't take into account, what if Kang Hui's company didn't promote "Love"?"

Chen Minhao's expression was serious, as if he was not talking about his contracted company, but about a company that had nothing to do with him.

Jessica was stunned for a moment and said: "I really didn't consider this possibility, but Kang Hui herself is also an investor in this movie, so she shouldn't stop promoting it." ”

Chen Minhao thought to himself, of course he would vigorously publicize it.

But her expression became more serious, and she said: "What if after the film is produced, after Kang Hui's company sees the finished film, they judge that the quality of the film is not high, and even if they work hard to publicize it, the money they make is less than the cost of investment?

Hearing "the quality of the movie is not high", Jessica's face suddenly turned a little unhappy, and said: "You are the actor of this movie, you should have confidence in the quality of this movie." ”

Chen Minhao suddenly laughed and said: "Of course I am confident in the quality of the movie, but you can't expect everyone to have a relatively high appreciation and judgment of the movie, right? Even if it is a high-quality movie, Kang Hui's company may not be able to recognize the value of the film 100 percent." ”

Chen Minhao has no burden in his heart, and he is unscrupulous and blackmails his company.

Jessica's face was a little dignified, in the film industry, cases of pearl secret investment are not uncommon. I even blamed Chen Minhao a little bit just now, I really shouldn't have it!

Jessica was a little apprehensive and asked, "So what should I do?"

Chen Minhao said with a smile: "Add one, if the box office of the movie does not exceed 10 million US dollars, the sharing ratio is not according to your 65% and Kanghui 35%, but according to your 75% and 25%. ”

Jessica hesitated a little and said, "Will this Kang Hui agree?"

Chen Minhao said: "If you mention it directly, Kang Hui will definitely not agree, you can inquire about Kang Hui's reputation in the domestic entertainment industry." ”

Jessica cupped her chin and asked, "So what should I do?"

"You can make some inconsequential concessions in some unimportant aspects," Chen said. For example, if it's more than $50 million now, then Kang will return 75% and you will return 25%. It can be changed to 80% back to Kang and 20% to you. ”

Jessica smiled and said, "Okay, thank you so much!"

Jessica thanked her and said goodbye with a smile.

Chen Minhao's words actually completely moved her.

But she was still a little uneasy.

Although Chen Minhao is a good person, I regard him as a friend, and he also regards me as a friend, but in the face of the difference of interests between me and his company, his behavior is actually a bit of a trap on the current company, which makes Jessica a little uneasy.

Jessica decided to ask a few Chinese friends.

After Jessica returned to her room, she dialed a Huaxia friend's phone and asked, "Do you know Kang Hui, how is she?"

"Of course I do. is famous in the Chinese entertainment industry, you have to be careful when you cooperate with her, she is a thousand-year-old fox, she eats everything, but she doesn't suffer. ”

Jessica nodded and continued to ask, "Can you help me inquire about the relationship between Chen Minhao and Kang Hui?"

"Gee, there's no need to ask. The relationship between Chen Minhao and Kang Hui is not a secret in the entertainment industry in China at all, and the relationship between the two of them is very poor. Kang Hui is very strong and often makes some decisions for Chen Minhao despite his wishes. ”

After listening, Jessica smiled confidently.

is worthy of me, this is what Huaxia mentioned "the righteous have more help, and the unrighteous have little help".

Chen Minhao is really helping me! When the movie is launched, I must thank him in the future!

Jessica, with a full psychological advantage, dialed Kang's phone and said, "I'm willing to accept the bet, but I think we have to discuss this ratio." ”

Kang Hui tapped his fingers on the table and said, "What do you think?"

Jessica said: "If the box office is less than $10 million, the percentage is not 65% and 35%, but 75% and 25%. ”

Kang Hui was about to say yes, she thought that the box office would not be less than $10 million no matter what. This is not a trust in the quality of the film, but a trust in Chen Minhao's box office appeal.

The strength of Chen Minhao's fans should not be underestimated.

Needless to say, in other countries, in Huaxia, the three words of Chen Minhao alone make the box office more than 10 million US dollars not a big problem.

Before Kang Hui could speak, Jessica immediately added: "Of course, I know that this plan is difficult for you to accept, but in other aspects, I can make some concessions. For example, when the box office exceeds $50 million, it used to be 75% for you and 25% for me, and we can change it to 80% for you and 20% for me.

The corners of Kang Hui's mouth rose and said two words: "Deal." I'll fly to Vienna tomorrow and we'll sign the contract. ”
