Chapter 172: Earnings and Next Steps

Hu Jin is a generous son, he entered the film and television industry not to make money at all, but to pick up girls, how could he be single when he has always been accompanied by beauty.

I also brought a pretty girl, not the one I brought when I was in the magic capital.

Hu Jin introduced it in advance, it seems that his name is Xiaoyun? No wonder it looks familiar.

With a small actor on such an important occasion, there is definitely a story in it.

Gu Jun didn't ask too much, he knew that he would definitely know after a while.

โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”

Because Gu Jun and Wu Xiguo were going to attend the celebration banquet of the commendation conference, it was a little late when they came here.

Gu Jun, who had drunk a lot, picked up his wine glass, and after clinking glasses with those present one by one: "I'm sorry, it seems extra hasty to invite you here today, and please Haihan."

Today, I would like to sincerely thank all of you, because of your trust, we were able to make such a project as "The Birth of a Star".

I know that everyone's mood is relaxed now, we should be relaxed, and we must be relaxed. There are no outsiders here today, and I drank a little bit of wine when I was younger, so I went crazy once. We should not only be relaxed, but also proud.

To put it mildly, there are 300 people at the commendation conference just held downstairs, who doesn't envy us?

No, there is not a single one that is not envied. The reason for today's invitation to this trip is estimated to be guessed, yes, our revenue has been recovered by 90%.

Don't wait for the 10%, let's divide all the 90% first, and settle the bag for safety. Let's also experience the feeling of counting money and hand cramps.

Pei Xiao, you tell me about the detailed income of "The Birth of a Star", as well as some of the previous agreements and your profits, if there is no problem, transfer or check on the spot. I have only one request, to get everything in order tonight. โ€

"Okay, Gu.. , Mr. Gu. โ€

Pei Xiao is the elder sister of the sister flower that Gu Jun brought back from Qingdao.

She is now responsible for the day-to-day operations and financial aspects of the company.

At the most important example, she is the chief financial officer of the CFO, and the down-to-earth is the accounting of the accountsยทยทยทยทยท

Pei Xiao, who took out an iPad from his bag, stood up, first introduced his position to the people present, and then began to talk eloquently.

"The total investment of the "Birth of a Star" project is 1600W, the investment of director Wu Xiguo is 900W, the cash investment of Mr. Gu is 500W, and the investment of Mr. Hu is 200W. โ€

According to the ratio, it is 56.25%: 31.25%: 12.5%.

The current income of the "Birth of a Star" project is 137 million, and it stands to reason that this income should be distributed according to this standard.

But you should know that at the beginning of the project, the three parties had a supplementary agreement, such as the remuneration of director Wu Xiguo, such as the remuneration of Gu Zong and Qingguo, the script fee, and the original songs he provided in the project.

According to the contract, in the case of more than 50% of the income, Director Wu's director's salary is 100W, which is automatically converted as if it is being invested.

The total salary of Mr. Gu and Qingguo's actors is 1 million, and the script fee, including the copyright of the song, is 200W, which is also converted into investment.

The new investment standard is 2000W, and after the change, the investment in director Xiguo is 1000W, Mr. Gu's is 800W, and Mr. Hu's investment is still 200W.

In this case, the distribution ratio is 5:4:1. Moreover, there is also 1500W is a dividend agreed in advance to all participants, of course, including all of you here. If you don't have any opinions, I'll do that?"

Pei Xiao's eyes focused on the expressions of everyone present.

The current situation is like this, you must not ignore some hidden dangers because you make money, and any relevant data must be calculated clearly.

In particular, the amount involved is too large, and every percentage point is related to the attribution of millions.

There is a way that those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and they are afraid to respond to that sentence: It is easy to share hardships and hardships, and it is difficult to share wealth and wealth.

Wu Xiguo's friends were naturally dominated by Wu Xiguo, and the two representatives present did not respond, but their eyes drifted over Wu Xiguo's face.

Wu Xiguo just didn't see it, drinking water from a teacup, the two knew that he didn't want to speak, and after the two glanced at each other, they shook their heads at Pei Xiao at the same time to say that they had no opinion.

Pei Xiao was about to ask Hu Jin, when he heard him take the initiative to speak: "Hurry up, no one is short of 1.8 million, I will have something to do in a while." โ€

"Mr. Hu is so courageous. โ€

Pei Xiao, who paused, continued: "A total of 122 million income, the distribution to Director Wu is 5110W, about everyone's share, I have made a table, I can ask Director Wu to inspect them one by one with you later."

The allocation to Mr. Hu is 1220W. Do you transfer money or check?, because the amount of money is huge, you have to go to the bank tomorrow to operate.

If you want to issue a check, you can do it now, and Mr. Gu instructed me in advance to bring all the official seals. โ€

Pei Xiao didn't say anything about Gu Jun's income, because the current part of the funds is on the company's books.

The proceeds that should be distributed to Gu Jun are 4880W. Gu Jun will not move other people's funds, but the funds belonging to him have begun to circulate.

Invest in "Fireworks in the Day" 1000W, and most of the filming process has been completed, and all the filming can be completed in a month at most.

Three months of post-production, then sign up for the Berlin Film Festival, which is tentatively estimated to be released after the year.

"People in Embarrassment" director Wu Xiguo. The total investment is 3500W.

Gu Jun led the investment of 1200W, Wu Xiguo personally added 500W, Xinli Media invested 800W, Huaxia Film invested 500W, and Guangxian Media invested 500W.

is currently filming, and it is also about to reach the end, and it is expected to be released in this year's Chinese New Year, with Guangguang Media + Huaxia Film responsible for distribution.

"Twenty Years Old Again" is about to start shooting with Qingdao, although director Zhao Mo is not very famous, but the investment is not small, and the same investment amount as "People in Embarrassment" is 3500W.

Because the heroine is a fairy, and the hero is Brother Hu. is following "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", after nearly ten years, the two played a couple again.

Feelings are really a good thing, and there are really people who eat this set.

The project "Twenty Years Old Again" is definitely not as favored as "People in Embarrassment", after all, the director is not at the same level.

Therefore, Gu Jun led the investment of the vast majority of 2000W, Guangguang invested 1000W, and China Film invested 500W.

1000W+1200W+2000W=4200Wใ€‚

This is Gu Jun's investment in 2013, almost all the profits earned back by "The Birth of a Star".

But in fact, the real expenses are not so much, for example, he provided the scripts of three movies and two movies, which can be omitted.

and Tianxian now claims that the salary is 1000W, but she made it clear that three million after tax is enough.

But... You can't say it to the outside world, and you have to write 1000W on the contract, and of course, the tax is also paid according to 1000W.

The cash available for operation in Gu Jun's hand is about 1500W, which is what the company needs for its daily operation.

~~~~~~~~

Regarding such a huge amount as 5000W, Wu Xiguo discussed very carefully with his friends,

I also asked a few people who didn't come by phone, and finally made a decision: "Let's transfer directly according to the bank cards of all investors, the amount is too large, or the transfer is safe." โ€

Hu Jin didn't answer Pei Xiao, but looked at Gu Jun: "This is the two million I invested last year?

"Well, it's mostly luck, there is a lack of this kind of witty romance movie on the market, and we have a lot of publicity, and it will be difficult to replicate such a success story in the future. "Gu Jun is sincere, and he confirms that it is difficult to have such a recovery.

First of all, now Wu Xiguo's remuneration cannot be 100W, and Gu Jun and Qingguo's remuneration will not be so cheap.

And in order to reduce the production costs, they really exhausted all means, and the previous remuneration was completely zero, and the contract stipulated that if the income could not reach 50%, they would be busy in vain.

In the same way, the remuneration of other staff members has also been reduced to the extreme.

On the surface, the production cost of "The Birth of a Star" is 2000W, but the dividend of 1500W can also be seen as a cost.

There is also an issuance fee of at least 1500W~2000W.

Although it did not pay for it, it was because of the agreement signed with Huaxia Distribution with this ultra-high issuance fee of 10%.

10% of the box office of 400 million, that is 4000W.

If there is not enough income, how can Huaxia Distribution be so generous.

But Gu Jun, they really can't come up with tens of millions of issuance fees.

2000W for 120 million, the return is indeed rich, even if you know that there is uncertainty, 500% of the income is enough for people to take risks.

If it is 2000W + 1500W + 2000W = 5500W for 120 million, this temptation will drop a lot.

Moreover, this time it is really the right time, place and people to gather to achieve this kind of achievement.

Just like the three movies above, Gu Jun's expectation is that the income can be satisfied with 100%~200%.

Gu Jun's box office expectation for "Fireworks in the Day" is 100 million, the production cost is 1500W, and the distribution cost is 1:1. The domestic box office is basically only enough for cost or a small profit, and the foreign box office is not easy to say.

The box office expectation for "People in Embarrassment" is 2~300 million, and if it meets expectations, the income should be quite rich.

The box office expectation of "Twenty Years Old Again" is over 100 million, so that you don't lose money...

Moreover, there is another meaning in Gu Jun's words, he does not want Hu Jin to have too high expectations for future returns because of the success of his first investment.

Besides, as long as the films led by Gu Jun have not had box office mistakes, then he should not lack investors in a short period of time.

The names of Xinli Media, Guangxian Media, Huaxia Film and China Film that have never cooperated with Xinli Media and Guangxian Media in the investment list of "People in Embarrassment" and "Return to Twenty Years Old" can explain everything.

These four were decided to be introduced by Gu Jun after careful consideration.

It is not necessarily the most powerful, nor is it necessarily the most profitable, but now in 2013, some people and some forces cannot be contacted.

In 2013, it was a critical moment when the changes had just begun.

Compared with the slightly familiar Xinli Media, Gu Jun attaches more importance to Guangguang Media, which is the second number in the current private media enterprises.

Moreover, Guangxian Media is preparing to acquire nearly 28% of the shares held by Wang Ziwen, the second shareholder of Xinli Media and the current CEO.

Compared with Huaxia films, Gu Jun attaches more importance to China Film, which has the largest theater in the country. But now it's just a little bit of touch.

On the surface, these four will definitely share Gu Jun's interests, but the hidden benefits they bring are huge.

For example, product placement, placement resources, publicity and distribution, film scheduling rate and the convenience brought by ginseng tea.

Gu Jun remembers Hu Jinxue's affection for charcoal, and he also welcomes this kind of big boss who 'loves film and television' industry.

But there are some things he has to explain in advance, but he doesn't want to make both parties unhappy because of 'money' in the future, or even part ways.

may have seen the embarrassment on Gu Jun's face, and Hu Jin, who looked at Pei Xiao, snapped his fingers: "Beauty, write me a check." โ€

Pei Xiao glanced at Gu Jun, and after getting a reply, he took out the checkbook and began to write down the relevant accounts and amounts.

After stamping the financial seal and the corporate seal.

After confirming that it was correct, he handed it to Hu Jin.

The latter flicked it lightly and said to Xiaoyun beside him: "Baby, this thin piece of paper is 1200W." Do you want it?"

The latter shook his head.

"Actually, I don't want it either. โ€

Smiling, Hu Jin put the check on the table, took out a cigar from his pocket, cut off the cigar cap, lit the check with a lighter, and then used the fire of the check to light the cigar.

Soon, the cheque that could be withdrawn from the bank for 1200W was a pile of ashes, but the cigar was still not lit.

In the puzzled eyes of everyone, Hu Jin, who lit a cigar with a lighter, began to swallow the clouds and puff out the fog, and said to Gu Jun: "Look. The 1200W can't be lit. I don't want this 1200W, it's up to you to decide, our friendship is not something that money can measure. โ€

Hugging Xiao Yun beside him, Hu Jin continued: "The girl next to me likes to act in movies, and I won't be polite to you, I'm going to trouble you today." โ€

Gu Jun nodded, the money was accepted, but he always felt that there would be trouble in the future.

Especially this person, it is definitely impossible to forget the names of the people around him, but he still says 'sister', which means that those who like to act in movies must be around him, but they are not necessarily called names.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harbin.

On May 10th, at one o'clock in the afternoon, during the filming of "Fireworks in the Day", the next shot was Gu Jun's finale scene, and it was also the finale scene of the entire crew.

In four months, a "Fireworks in the Day" is finally coming to an end, and the characters of Zhang Zili, Wu Zhizhen, Liang Zhijun, and Rong Rong are also going to end their lives.

Inside a cabaret that looks a little old.

The cinematographer is looking for the best angle, the assistant director is talking to the extras, and the gaffer is looking for the most suitable lighting angle.

The radioman was checking the equipment and eliminating any hidden dangers that might cause noise, and everyone was busy and excited, because everyone knew that after today, it was all going to be over.

Excited to complete an excellent work, and disappointed to be about to separate.

Today's scene can be said to be Gu Jun's one-man show, and it is also a very important scene for him in this movie.

Because of Zhang Zili's revelation, Wu Zhizhen became a prisoner.

Zhang Zili appeared in this dance hall to dance a dance that was not beautiful, and even very weird.

This shot plays a role in connecting Zhang Zili's behavior and personality.

Throughout the plot, it should be like this, after Zhang Zili and Wu Zhizhen watched a movie, Wu Zhizhen was sent home. Zhang Zili found that someone was following him, and he didn't know that it was Liang Zhijun who was following him at that time, so Zhang Zili entered a song and dance hall in order to get rid of Liang Zhijun.

Dancing with a woman in the dance hall and getting rid of Liang Zhijun's stalking, or even stalking him.

He hasn't been here since then.

Coming here again today shows that his relationship with Wu Zhizhen has changed.
