Chapter 538: Lao Yan Flew Separately
Speaking of the copyright income of "Thai Embarrassment", generally speaking, network copyrights, TV copyrights and audio-visual copyrights will be sold before the movie is released, according to the industry rules, "Thai Embarrassment" invests in such a large movie, the network copyright is generally about 5 million, the TV copyright is about 3 million, and the audio-visual copyright is only a few hundred thousand, which is almost negligible.
Overseas rights have already begun to be negotiated with Columbia, and may be sold soon, and "Thai Embarrassment" is so hot at the box office that it can be expected that its overseas rights will be sold at a good price.
In addition, because Lin Xiaoguang resisted all forms of product placement during filming, the income of "Thai Embarrassment" is only the box office and copyright, and in summary, the light and shadow company should eventually get 108 million overseas copyrights.
At the same time, it cannot be ignored that "Thai Embarrassment" adds value to the intangible brand of the entire company of Light and Shadow Pictures.
Before "Thai Embarrassment", Light and Shadow was considered by the industry to be a small company that relied on Lin Xiaoguang to fight alone, and there was no way to make waves in the film industry.
But after "Thai Embarrassment", Light and Shadow is considered to be a film and television company with great potential and vision.
Obviously, "Thai Embarrassment" is this kind of movie with a frighteningly high input-output ratio.
Whether it is people in the mainland film and television circles, or people in Hong Kong and Taiwan circles, even if they don't know director Lin Xiaoguang, they will definitely know how popular the movie "Thai Embarrassment" is in the mainland.
For example, actress Charmaine Sheh from Hong Kong, she just terminated her contract with TVB at the end of the year, and is preparing to go north to film next year like other Hong Kong actors, but she didn't expect that she would have such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be favored by Lin Xiaoguang and cooperate with a film company like Light and Shadow.
Therefore, after receiving a call from Liang Guoer, Charmaine Sheh had already decided to set off from Hong Kong for an audition in Shaojing within a few days.
However, not every actress will want to cooperate with a light and shadow company, such as Cheng Yanxi, she has not been good in the mainland in recent years, since her amazing debut in the movie "Those Years", her acting career has been going downhill, and the TV series resources have changed from the female number one to the female number two, and even the female number three is about to be reached, and Lin Xiaoguang has not let her play an important role in her own movies, they are all soy sauce scenes.
This morning.
Light and Shadow Pictures.
Chairman's Office.
Not long after Lin Xiaoguang arrived at the office, Cheng Yanxi came.
may be because they haven't seen each other for a few months, but seeing Cheng Yanxi appear in front of him this time, Lin Xiaoguang was a little overjoyed: "Yanxi, when did you come back?"
"Just came back last night. ”
Lin Xiaoguang lit a cigarette and asked casually, "How is the filming in Hengcheng?"
"It's okay, I've been filming in Hengcheng for a few years, and it's like that. ”
"Well, just finished filming, you can rest at home for a few days first, don't worry about work first. ”
Cheng Yanxi nodded.
Lin Xiaoguang is not covered, although he knows that Cheng Yanxi must have something to do before he comes to him, but he just doesn't ask why you are here, and holds back your own words.
Sure enough, Cheng Yanxi pursed her lips, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "Boss, how many years do I have left on my contract?"
Lin Xiaoguang did not doubt him, and said calmly: "There are still two years to expire, what's wrong?"
"I want to ...... Early Cancellation. ”
"What?"
Lin Xiaoguang was not calm for a moment, and asked again: "What did you say?"
Cheng Yanxi raised her eyes and said in a low voice: "I said, I want to terminate the contract in advance." ”
"Cheng Yanxi, what the hell are you doing?"
Lin Xiaoguang endured it, didn't swear out, sat directly on the opposite side, and said, "If you encounter any difficulties, just say it, it's not bad money." ”
"Dawn ......"
Hearing Lin Xiaoguang's words, Cheng Yanxi was a little emotional, but she wanted to speak again, paused for a while, and her voice became lower: "Boss, there is a banquet in the world, I just want to change the environment, and I feel that this place is not suitable for me." ”
“……”
Lin Xiaoguang looked at this, and knew that he couldn't ask the inside story, so he said angrily: "Then it's useless for you to look for me, the issue of the artist's contract has always been the responsibility of the agent, I can't decide, you tell Guo'er yourself." ”
"Aren't you the chairman of the company? Why can't you be responsible? I will compensate for the liquidated damages!" Cheng Yanxi was in a hurry, a little unscrupulous.
is very realistic, Cheng Yanxi is not very happy to deal with Liang Guoer, and the contradiction between the two is getting deeper and deeper.
Lin Xiaoguang's anger scurried up, and he said angrily: "Cheng Yanxi, I, Lin Xiaoguang, lack your liquidated damages? We have been in this situation for so many years, why can't you even tell the truth?"
"I, I ......"
Cheng Yanxi bit her lip tightly, finally stood up weakly, and said, "Boss, I'll go first, and there will be a lawyer to talk to you in two days." ”
As soon as the words fell, Cheng Yanxi left.
Lin Xiaoguang was in the office by himself, and soon calmed down, and hurriedly called Liang Guoer to inform him.
And Liang Guoer was accompanying Zhao Liying to communicate with the investor about the role, and she couldn't leave for a while.
For a long time, Liang Guoer is not unwilling to help Cheng Yanxi take over the show, but Cheng Yanxi is indeed not as favored as Zhao Liying.
Although Zhao Liying and Cheng Yanxi are not professional actors, Zhao Liying's plasticity is much stronger than Cheng Yanxi's, and her acting skills are getting better and better.
And Cheng Yanyan has never been able to truly integrate into the film and television dramas in the mainland because of her Taiwanese accent and the sweet looks of Taiwanese girls, and over time, she has become more and more marginal in this circle.
And the relationship between Liang Guoer and Cheng Yanxi has also become more and more tense, and Cheng Yanxi always feels that Liang Guoer is eccentric and better for Zhao Liying.
……
8 p.m.
"Damn, you dare not answer my phone!"
In the living room, Lin Xiaoguang took his mobile phone and spun around, muttering, "This is real! Damn, how can this person turn his face now?"
Since he refused to answer the phone, Lin Xiaoguang was pondering whether to go to Cheng Yanxi's house.
Li Xiaoran saw Lin Xiaoguang's absent-minded appearance, and asked curiously, "Who turned his face with you?"
Lin Xiaoguang was stunned, and pretended to be angry: "No, an investor, originally promised to invest in "Hypnosis Master", but now he has withdrawn his investment, and he is angry." ”
Li Xiaoran nodded suddenly in realization, then walked over, soothed Lin Xiaoguang's chest, and said softly: "Withdraw your capital, withdraw your capital, why are you so angry?"
"Are you still short of this money?"
Li Xiaoran is telling the truth, Lin Xiaoguang has made a lot of money with "Thai Embarrassment", and everyone in the world knows it, how can Li Xiaoran, as a pillow person, not know?
Lin Xiaoguang said vaguely: "It's different, one yard is one yard, this is a credit issue." ”
Without waiting for Li Xiaoran to answer, Lin Xiaoguang continued: "Wife, I'll go out now, and I'll come back when I'm done." ”
"Okay, stay safe when driving, don't be too late!" Li Xiaoran didn't ask much, just admonished.
"Got it!"
Although this circle is very chaotic, Li Xiaoran is very newcomer Lin Xiaoguang, not to mention it far away, but in the past two years, she has almost always stayed by Lin Xiaoguang's side, whether it is filming movies in Thailand or performing a roadshow for "Thai Embarrassment", she has followed all the way, and I haven't seen anything unusual about Lin Xiaoguang.
In Li Xiaoran's eyes, Lin Xiaoguang is a high-quality director who is considerate of his family!
And Lin Xiaoguang has indeed restrained a lot in the past two years, except for controlling Li Bingbing and Li Xue at the same time in Xu Zheng Winery, he has hardly made any dishonest moves, and he already cherishes his feathers.
