Seeing Chen Baihe's reaction so big, Chen Dongju also hurriedly looked, as Chen Baihe's agent, it was also one of her tasks to help Chen Baihe sign the contract.

Chen Dongju looked in the direction of Chen Baihe's finger, checked the content on it, and his face also changed greatly, and said, "Mr. Zhou, when the Demon Catching crew talked to us at that time, they didn't say that. ”

Seeing Chen Dongju's expression change greatly, Li Xinyi also showed a curious look, looked at the contract documents, and said silently: "During the filming, if Party A has any negative news that affects the release of the movie, Party B has the right to determine the deletion of Party A's scenes, and hire actors to shoot anew, and the expenses incurred during the filming will be borne by Party A." ”

Seeing that the three of them were all surprised, Zhou Qiang smiled and said, "Miss Chen, don't worry, listen to me explain to you slowly." “

"Mr. Zhou, it's not that I can't explain it, I can understand the literal meaning, even if I agree, the brokerage company may not agree. Chen Baihe asked rhetorically.

"Miss Chen, do you think this will work, let's talk about it alone, if there is anything, it will be easier to communicate. Zhou Qiang proposed.

Chen Baihe hesitated, nodded at Chen Dongju on the side, and said, "Dongju, you take Xinyi to the side to rest first, and I'll talk to Mr. Zhou alone." ”

Chen Dongju frowned slightly, seemed to be a little uneasy, and whispered: "Okay, let's sit at the coffee table outside, if there's anything, just call me." ”

"Hmm. Chen Bai replied.

Chen Dongju stood up, nodded to Zhou Qiang again, and then left with Li Xinyi on the side.

"Miss Chen, do you think this clause is very harsh?" Zhou Qiang asked.

"Of course, I've made a few films, and I've never seen anything like that. Chen Baihe shook his head slightly and said.

"This is also something that can't be helped, you also know that Catching the Demon is a big production, and the investment alone is more than 200 million, if an actor's misbehavior causes the whole movie to be unable to be released, our investors will also lose all their money. Zhou Qiang said.

"However, if you do this, you are tantamount to passing on the risk to the artist, and it is not fair to the artist. Chen Baihe shook his head slightly.

"Miss Chen, have you ever had any negative news?" Zhou Qiang asked rhetorically.

"No. Chen Baihe said.

"Isn't that enough, why should you worry about this clause since you don't have negative press. Zhou Qiang said.

"Mr. Zhou, you should also know that the current news media, in order to catch the attention of readers, whether it is a fact or not, will exaggerate the facts to report. Chen Baihe shrugged his shoulders and said.

"You don't have to worry about this, what we mean by negative news is a situation that can affect the release of a movie, and ordinary negative news has little impact, but can increase the promotion of the movie, so it is not in this range. Zhou Qiang said.

"I still find it a little unacceptable. Chen Bai said.

"Miss Chen, in fact, we are doing this so that this movie can be better, not just for you. Zhou Qiang said earnestly.

"You mean that this contract is not for me, but for all the actors to sign?" Chen Baihe guessed.

"No, the role with few scenes will not affect the overall situation, even if a supporting role has negative behavior, we find someone to shoot from scratch, the crew can afford this part of the cost, the key is that several main roles throughout the movie, your role is the heaviest, if you find someone to shoot from scratch, many shots need to be remade, and our crew can't afford it. Zhou Qiang explained.

"Mr. Zhou, I need to think about it. Chen Baihe pondered for a moment and said.

"Absolutely. Zhou Qiang nodded and continued: "However, I still say the same thing, signing this contract will not do you any harm, but it is a kind of protection." ”

"Mr. Zhou, I don't understand what you said. Chen Baihe asked rhetorically.

"Let me give you an analogy, for example, you worked hard to shoot this movie, but because of the misbehavior of a certain actor, the film was banned by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and was also boycotted by the majority of netizens, what do you say to do at this time?" Zhou Qiang asked rhetorically.

"Delete the scene of the person with bad conduct, after all, the completion of a movie is the hard work of all the actors and crew, and it can't be released because of one person, which is not fair to other actors. Chen Baihe said.

"You're right. Zhou Qiang nodded and continued to ask: "Then what if this person's role is very important, and if his role is deleted, it will affect the plot of the whole play?"

Chen Baihe thought for a moment and said, "Then we can only find someone from scratch and shoot the role of this role." ”

"Who should bear this part of the cost?" Zhou Qiang asked rhetorically.

"This ......" According to Chen Baihe's heart, naturally who caused the trouble, who caused the movie to be unable to be released, who should be responsible, but if she said so, wouldn't she be involved herself.

"Although you didn't say it, but seeing your reaction, I understand, and you also think that once this kind of thing happens, the artist should be held responsible, right?" Zhou Qiang asked rhetorically.

"That being said, however, there is no precedent for this in the film industry before. Chen Bai said.

"I'm still saying the same thing, signing this contract doesn't do you any harm, I'm not targeting you. Zhou Qiang said while observing the other party's expression, and said: "What I just said, if you carefully experience it, you will know that this contract is also a guarantee for you." ”

Chen Bai He fell into contemplation, he carefully recalled Zhou Qiang's words, and found that what Zhou Qiang said also made some sense, his own family's affairs, he knew that he was married, and there was no negative news at all, even if there were reporters chasing the wind and catching the shadows, it was impossible to affect the release of the movie.

The reason why she did this was not because of the high salary given by the Demon Catcher, but because she was optimistic that the Demon Catcher was a big production, and hoped that with this big production, she could have a better performance and breakthrough in the movie, and her status in the film industry could go further.

If, as Zhou Qiang said, the whole movie cannot be released because of the negative news caused by other actors, this is a huge loss for Chen Baihe, and her efforts and efforts during this period will also be burned, not to mention wanting to go further in the film industry.

"Miss Chen, how are you thinking about it?" asked Zhou Qiang.

Just like Zhou Qiang said, the reason why he asked Chen Baihe to sign this contract was not to restrict Chen Baihe, but to restrict the actor Wang Mudong, but Wang Mudong has a hard background and even the big producer Han Ziqiang does not dare to move, if Zhou Qiang directly comes to the door and tells the other party to let him sign this contract, the boss of Wang Mudong's brokerage company will definitely not do it.

The boss of Wang Mudong's brokerage company is the major shareholder of the Demon Catching Monster Publishing Company, if he offends the other party, it will affect the distribution of the Demon Catcher, so Zhou Qiang must find another way to let several other leading actors of the Demon Catcher sign this contract, and finally, go to talk to Wang Mudong's brokerage company.

People have a herd mentality, and when the time comes, just say, 'All the leading actors have signed, why don't you sign it.'" ’

Wang Mudong's brokerage company will also reduce resistance.

In fact, according to Zhou Qiang's intentions, it is the easiest way to directly replace Wang Mudong, Han Ziqiang also communicated with Boss Chen of Wang Mudong's brokerage company, but Boss Chen of the brokerage company was unwilling, and Han Ziqiang had no other way, and he didn't want to offend Boss Chen, after all, the issuance of the Demon Capture Record still needs the other party.

Moreover, he can't directly tell Boss Chen that Wang Mudong has a history of drug abuse, since Wang Mudong dares to smoke, he has a kind of luck mentality psychologically, thinking that he will not be discovered, and if there is no evidence, he will definitely not admit it.

At that time, Han Ziqiang and Zhou Qiang will not be able to come up with evidence, if Boss Chen still lets Wang Mudong play the leading role, if Han Ziqiang refuses, he will not give the other party a face, and he will still talk to the other party, if he does not refuse, he will have to bear this part of the risk.

Therefore, the safest way is to pass on the risk, the artists of his own brokerage company are responsible for themselves, and Boss Chen himself wants to promote Wang Mudong, and if something happens, he can only blame himself for not having vision, and he can't blame anyone else.

"Mr. Zhou, give me more time. Although there was some truth in what Zhou Qiang said, it also made Chen Baihe a little loose, but for a while, Chen Baihe still couldn't make up his mind.

Zhou Qiang smiled, although Chen Baihe is a little famous, but she is not a first-line actress, and she doesn't have much background, Zhou Qiang doesn't have too many scruples, and another, in addition to Chen Baihe, the heroine of the Demon Catcher has other reserve candidates, one of them is a female star named Wang Lulu, who is very similar to Chen Baihe's style, and the two often compete for the same movie role, and have always been potential competitors.

"Of course you can, but, as your fan, I still hope that you can make a decision early......" Zhou Qiang responded, pretending to whisper mysteriously: "I heard privately that Wang Lulu is also competing for this role, and there are other investors who are very optimistic about her, so it is better for you to make a decision early." “

Hearing Zhou Qiang's words, Chen Baihe frowned slightly, the entertainment industry is a vanity fair, she has never advanced but retreated, she and Wang Lulu have similar styles, and the roles they can play are similar, so there has always been competition, and netizens also like to compare the two together, if she gives up this contract and lets Wang Lulu get this role, once Wang Lulu relies on this drama to become popular, she will snatch a lot of roles and commercial performances that originally belonged to her, and the entertainment industry is so cruel.

After hesitating for a long time, Chen Baihe gritted his teeth and finally made a decision, saying, "Mr. Zhou, I signed this contract." ”
