Chapter 40: Chen Junlun's Remuneration
The twenty-fourth day of the first lunar month.
As a well-known film critic, Zhu Lingling got up late today.
Yesterday she stayed up late to finish a film review.
was originally a mediocre movie with few highlights, but after her careful consideration, it seems to have more interesting details and artistic conceptions.
It's just that this kind of film review is too time-consuming and thoughtful.
There are some movies that you watch once, and you seem to have a thousand words in your heart.
And some, it will leave you speechless.
After washing, she baked a slice of bread, poured a glass of milk, and turned on her computer to read today's news.
"Shocked! The two heroes of China join hands to fight in Hollywood. ”
"Express, Chen Junlun, Wan Xiaofeng shook hands and made peace, unanimously to the outside world!"
"Directed by Chen Junlun and written by Wan Xiaofeng, "Seven Swords Under the Tianshan Mountains" started filming, and Chen Junlun challenged Hollywood again!"
Zhu Lingling was dumbfounded, looking at the push news from major websites, she forgot the milk in her hand for a while, and when she reacted, it was time to sprinkle a table.
I casually took a few tissues, wiped them twice, threw these trivialities aside, and quickly opened this blockbuster news.
Crazy! The whole Internet is crazy.
There was too much information in the news, and it took her a long time to straighten it out.
First of all, director Chen Junlun fought in Hollywood again after many years.
Is he a shame this time, or is he in trouble again?
Secondly, Chen Junlun's script was actually written by Wan Xiaofeng?
This is undoubtedly a blockbuster**.
You must know that since the release of the movie "33 Days of Broken Love", Wan Xiaofeng and Chen Junlun have always been antagonists on the cusp.
Even Wan Xiaofeng's movie was released, and from time to time, someone on the Internet would use Chen Junlun's name to find out about Wan Xiaofeng.
However, these two people who couldn't play together with half a pole actually came together?
This is undoubtedly a heavy slap in the face to the previous rumors, as well as the part of people who used Chen Junlun to black Wan Xiaofeng.
Chen Junlun's new film "Seven Swords Under the Heavenly Mountain" is a script written by Wan Xiaofeng?
What's going on?
Hasn't Director Chen always written and directed himself?
This time it was an exception?
And what about Wan Xiaofeng?
So far, Zhu Lingling is indeed a passer-by fan.
But what exactly is his talent in screenwriting?
This is still an unknown.
After all, only one "33 Days of Broken Love" doesn't prove anything.
In the eyes of Chinese people, what he shows in music is the most prominent existence.
The four songs he sold to "Yinqing Entertainment" have become popular all over the country.
His solo piano has already garnered 20 million hits on the Internet.
The theme song of "Bright Moon Knife", which has just been released, has been popular for a while.
These are the best examples of his musical talent.
But music is music, and a script is a script.
So how powerful is Wan Xiaofeng's script skills to move Chen Junlun's heart?
Zhu Lingling couldn't guess this question, so she could only leave this question until the movie was released to know the truth.
......
Kunlun Mountain, Chen Junlun's home.
Wan Xiaofeng was sitting with Chen Junlun drinking tea.
He received a call from Chen Junlun early this morning, asking him to come to Kunlun.
It is said that he gave himself the reward he promised.
If it weren't for the other party mentioning this, Wan Xiaofeng would almost have forgotten about it.
I remember that when I promised Chen Junlun to write a script for him, seeing that his family looked poor and sour, Wan Xiaofeng didn't think about any compensation.
After receiving Chen Junlun's call today, I suddenly became interested.
Don't know what the pay will be?
"I said Director Chen, you are also a great director, as for being so shabby?
After speaking, he raised the teacup in his hand and took a sip.
Chen Junlun gave Wan Xiaofeng another full name, and replied with a smile:
"I don't make much, most of it is spent on medical treatment, and some of the rest is also ready to be thrown into "Seven Swords Under the Heavenly Mountain". ”
Wan Xiaofeng understood the last sentence.
Chen Junlun wants to go to Hollywood to make a movie, and it is estimated that no one over there will invest much money, so he can only carry the lion's own head.
But the previous sentence is questionable.
In the Chinese film industry, the weight of directors is very high.
Generally, high-grade directors, not to mention the box office share, the salary alone is already sky-high.
And Chen Junlun, as the first director in China, actually said that he didn't make much?
Say it and who believes!
Wan Xiaofeng sneered and disagreed.
"If you don't make much, no one in the entertainment industry can make money. ”
Chen Junlun did not answer, but carried out a pile of documents from under the desk.
"Smack!" slammed into the table.
"You look at this, and you understand. ”
Wan Xiaofeng took out a copy from it and babbled in his mouth.
"Mysterious. ”
However, when he finished reading the book, his eyes became serious.
One book, one another.
Knowing that after reading half of the documents on the table, he understood what Chen Junlun meant.
"All the copyrights of your movie are still in your hands!"
This had to be Wan Xiaofeng shocked.
Usually, when investors invest in movies, they will take most of the copyrights, which is common sense.
But what is in front of you, if it is true.
That is to say, most of the people who invest in Chen Junlun's films do not have copyrights, but only rely on box office profits.
Oh my God, it's incredible.
Perhaps in the whole of China, only Chen Junlun has this ability.
Because the investment that only looks at the box office income is undoubtedly a risky gamble, and only a director like Chen Junlun, who rarely misses, can attract investment without giving up the copyright.
Chen Junlun saw Wan Xiaofeng's mouth open wide, but he couldn't speak for a long time, which was a little funny.
"Huh. ”
"A lot of times, it's really painful to watch my work being ruined by various sequels, editing, or whatever. ”
"So, when I was able, I stopped selling the copyright, and I sold back the works of the earlier years one after another. ”
For this kind of fool who is doing some loss-making business, Wan Xiaofeng can only give him a thumbs up.
Chen Junlun patted the documents on the table and sighed a little.
"This is my hard work, a total of 23 films, of which only the webcast copyright of "Kunlun" is still outside, and it can only be recovered after 5 years, and the rest are completely ......"
Wan Xiaofeng couldn't figure out what he wanted to say, so he could only be a good listener quietly.
Chen Junlun said that his eyes became serious and serious.
"Wan Xiaofeng, now I'll give them to you. ”
Rumble!
With an explosion in Wan Xiaofeng's head, it went blank.
Wait, now is not the time to get confused.
"Director Chen, did you say something wrong, or did I hear it wrong?"
Wan Xiaofeng gave himself a slap in the face.
It's not a dream!
"You heard it right, I didn't say it wrong, in the future, I hope you can treat them well. ”
After speaking, he pushed the document down in front of Wan Xiaofeng.
Wan Xiaofeng took three cups of tea to calm his mood.
"Director Chen, aren't you afraid that I will take these copyrights and eat rotten money and spoil them?"
Chen Junlun smiled.
"I'm sure you're not that kind of person. ”
I'm not that kind of person?
Do you believe it?
I don't believe it myself......
