Chapter 546 Wang Baoqiang who wants to be a director! (Second Update!Ask for Subscription!)
"Zhao Wei's side hasn't replied yet?"
Early in the morning of the 12th, Tang An called Zhao Jun to ask about the termination of the contract with Zhao Wei.
"I had already looked for her yesterday afternoon, and the conversation was not pleasant, so I thought she was going to think about it, but this morning I made four calls in a row and no one answered. Zhao Jun replied truthfully.
"No one answered?"
Tang An was a little surprised, whether you want to negotiate the conditions or what, you won't not answer the phone, even if you let the agent deal with it.
Tang An thought for a while and said, "If she doesn't want to talk about it, forget it, I'll let the legal department prepare, you don't care about it for now, "Hong Kong" will start filming in a month, and it won't be long before the Spring Festival, so get this film ready first, and the preparation of "Interstellar" can't be left behind." ”
"Then what if she comes back to contact me later?" Zhao Jun asked again.
"As of five o'clock this afternoon, if she is willing to settle it peacefully, forget it, otherwise she will be forced to terminate the contract, and the two million will be spit out to me!" Tang An said in a deep voice.
"Okay, chairman, I see. Zhao Jun nodded and should be busy.
Tang An then dialed the phone and asked the legal department to get ready.
After staying in the company for a while, Tang An left the company with people and came to a hotel in Haidian District, where he saw Wang Baoqiang in the box.
rejected people before, and now I want to ask him to continue to star in "Hong Kong", even if Tang An is much higher than him in terms of status, but he has to give people a step down and give him enough face.
"Protect the wall, Mr. Song, hello. Tang An and Wang Baoqiang said hello to his agent Song Ze.
The two of them also hurriedly said hello.
"Hello Tang Dong. ”
After a few words of greeting, Tang An didn't talk about business directly, and chatted casually.
"You were still in Huayi when Bao Wall last saw you, and now you are your own boss, how is it, is the company still going well?"
Wang Baoqiang hurriedly said, "The company is okay, it is Tang Dong's success that has given me an example, otherwise I wouldn't have done it alone." ”
Tang An smiled, "What you said doesn't mean that if I don't leave, you won't start your own company." ”
"I really don't know if I have the courage, after all, it's a lot of difficulties to do it myself. Wang Baoqiang said.
Song Ze next to him also answered, "Tang Dong, you don't know, I hesitated for a while when I persuaded him to go it alone. ”
Tang An smiled, "It's good to be cautious, but you still have to fight when it's time to take risks." ”
To be honest, Tang An still admires Wang Baoqiang very much, from a grassroots to a big star, to a successful capital, looking at any industry can be regarded as absolute success.
And he's smart enough, and it's never like a human being.
At the beginning, it could be simple, but after staying in the entertainment industry for a long time, people will always mature.
The divorce case with his wife is a classic, and it is impossible for a person who has no brains to do it.
Later, after not getting the investment share of "Hong Kong", there were two movies in front of him.
A Sino-Korean co-production "The Bad Guy Must Die" supervised by Feng Xiaogang and invested more than 100 million yuan, and a "Detective Chinatown".
"The Bad Guy Must Die" has a higher investment and a higher salary, and he finally chose "Detective Chinatown" and participated in the investment.
After chatting casually for a while, Tang An also got down to business.
"Protect the wall, I guess you know what is going on this time, the actor of "Hong Kong" is none other than you, I will give you 5% of the investment share, how about it?" Tang An looked at him with a smile.
"Tang Dong, you look for me to look up to me, I took "Hong Kong Embarrassment". Wang Baoqiang didn't think much about it, and agreed to come down.
The next thing is to negotiate the price, 7 million salary, Xu Zheng is also this price, when he signed the contract with Xu Zheng, he just pounced on "Modern Times", the salary is not high, the director's salary is 8 million, the actor's salary is 7 million, adding up to 15 million, and the dividend is 5% of the domestic box office producer's share.
Wang Baoqiang didn't bother much about the salary, Xu Zheng took 7 million, and he couldn't exceed this number at most.
5% of the investment share, if the box office breaks one billion, plus 7 million in salary, this movie can earn nearly 20 million.
This is not counting the other benefits after the success of the movie, there is no reason not to accept it, especially if you have just come out of Huayi, and you don't have any particularly good resources.
Tang An negotiated, the contract Wang Baoqiang had to sign with the crew, and they had a meal together at noon.
At the end of the dinner, Wang Baoqiang and his agent Song Ze returned to their newly established company by car.
After sitting down, Wang Baoqiang said, "Old Song, Tang Dong personally came to invite me this time, it seems that he should pay more attention to me, if "Hong Kong" is successful, I want to try to make a movie myself." ”
Song Ze asked people to pour two glasses of water, and said in surprise, "Make a movie by yourself, are you not mistaken?"
At this time, there has not yet been a large-scale boom of actors, singers, hosts, writers and other people who have made some achievements in all aspects to become directors, and Wang Baoqiang's words made Song Ze inexplicable.
Wang Baoqiang drank saliva and continued, "I understand, actors have no status, in "Hong Kong", I only have a 5% investment share in addition to the salary, Xu Zheng's director's share is 5%, and his studio has 30% investment, even if he only has 30% of the studio's shares, it is also a 9% share, if the box office has one billion, he can earn at least more than 40 million." ”
"I make my own movies, the cost of comedies doesn't have to be too high, and asking Tang Dong to release it is better than taking over the drama myself and getting that little salary!"
There is no doubt that everyone wants to make more money, Xu Zheng can make so much money from an actor to a director, and Wang Baoqiang also has this idea in his heart.
Song Ze didn't take it seriously, is the director so good, I'm afraid he doesn't even know what models of cameras there are.
......
Early in the morning of the 13th, Tang An got up early.
It's not too busy, I go to bed early and wake up early every day, I can go for a run in the morning, and sometimes I go to the international championship golf course next door.
Of course, not to play, he won't.
Today, the first game of the NBA Finals started, playing golf is better than watching basketball, and the first game seems to be James was beaten by Du Xiaoshuai and lost.
went out for a run, and the driver, bodyguard, and secretary at the door were already waiting.
As soon as she saw Tang An coming back from outside, the secretary Zhou Li immediately hurried up to meet her, her face full of worry, "Chairman, something happened!"
"What's the matter, come in and tell me. Tang An wiped his sweat and let them go inside.
"What's going on?"
"Chairman, someone on Weibo suddenly broke the news that we wanted to unilaterally breach the contract to change actors because of Zhao Wei's high salary, and the person who broke the news also claimed to be an employee of our company. ”
Zhou Li immediately opened the tablet and handed it to Tang An.
"It's interesting that our internal employees broke the news. Tang An smiled and took the tablet.
