Chapter 13 Special Conditions
Huang Bo couldn't suppress his excitement since he got up in the morning. He took out all his decent clothes from the box, and dressed them up repeatedly, combing his hair shiny, and polishing his shoes four or five times, still worried about whether they were not clean enough.
What makes him happy is not the completion of the crew today, nor the sumptuous finale banquet in the evening.
He and Peng Yichen came back from the crew last night, and the mobile phone rang before they sat down as soon as they entered the door, and they repeatedly told him on the other end of the phone a few times before he believed that he had heard correctly.
Huimin Film and Television Company was about to sign a contract with him, and he asked five or six times on the phone before he dared to be sure that he had heard correctly.
In other words, he will soon be able to become a contracted actor of Huimin Film and Television.
This is not an ordinary leather bag brokerage company, although it has only just established an actor economic service department, but in the film circle, Huimin Film and Television's strength and resources are the top. After entering Hui Min, are you afraid that you won't have the opportunity to show your face on the big screen?
Huang Bo didn't close his eyes all night when he was happy, and this kind of opportunity was tantamount to a step to the sky for a group performance like him.
"Chen, the people from Huimin's company really didn't call you, you look so energetic, and the supporting roles are even better than the protagonists. Huimin Company can look up to me like this, it's impossible not to contact you. ”
After the sun rose, Huang Bo knocked on Peng Yichen's door as soon as possible and said that Huimin Company was going to sign a contract with him.
What he couldn't accept the most was that he was able to sign a contract with Huimin Company, Peng Yichen's amazing performance in the crew, but no one called him.
"Haha, Hui Min Company called you because of your acting skills and potential. As for why you didn't contact me...... Peng Yichen pretended to be narcissistic and said with an exaggerated smile: "Of course, it's because of a handsome and dashing male god like me that I have to come forward to invite them in person to show that they are sincere!"
"I'm, I'm. Huang Bo exaggerated in Qingdao dialect, "I remember, the night when Mr. Xiao first arrived at the crew, everyone sang on KTV after dinner, but you and Mr. Xiao didn't come."
Later, I asked you, and you said that you had a poor amount of alcohol, so you went home and went to sleep. It turned out that Mr. Xiao was looking for you to talk about signing a contract, but you can really hold back and don't tell me for so long. ”
Speaking of this, Huang Bo pretended to be angry, strangled Peng Yichen's neck with his hand, and shook his head from side to side a few times.
Peng Yichen was just about to open his mouth to explain, when two girls next to him suddenly screamed and rushed over to pull Huang Bo away, "Huang Bo, why are you doing this to us Chenchen?"
Peng Yichen and the others are about to arrive at the filming site at this time, and the two girls are actresses who play the heroine's dormitory girlfriends.
Through getting along with the crew in the past three months, Peng Yichen has now become the male god in the minds of all the girls in the crew.
As soon as he saw Huang Bo "bullying" their male god, of course he had to rush up to stop it.
Seeing the angry appearance of these two girls, Peng Yichen was afraid that Huang Bo would be killed by them for a while, so he hurriedly pulled Huang Bo aside, "We're just joking, just kidding!"
When the two girls heard Peng Yichen say this, they said stupidly: "Okay, for Chenchen's sake, we will spare you this time." After saying that, the two of them turned around and left, feeling a little shy.
Huang Bo watched them walk away before he breathed, "This is really a world of faces." Tatsuko, it seems that my brother will be respectful to you in the future, otherwise his life will be in danger!"
"you!" Peng Yichen knew he was joking.
"No kidding. Mr. Xiao came to you that night to talk about signing a contract with Huimin Film and Television. Huang Bo's expression slowly became serious.
"Yes, I have also agreed to sign a contract with Huimin Film and Television, and the two of us will have to eat in the same pot in the future. Peng Yichen joked with a smile.
Huang Bo nodded, "Hui Min's treatment for you shouldn't be low, right?"
"It's an ordinary newcomer's contract, the contract period is three years, I take 5 percent, and the company takes 5 percent. Peng Yichen shook his head and smiled.
When Huang Bo heard this, he became angry at the time, "Damn, is Hui Min crazy for money? With your appearance and acting skills, you will be treated as a newcomer? Is Xiao Min using my entry into the company to force you to agree to such conditions? If so, this dog's company Lao Tzu will not enter." ”
Listening to Huang Bo's words, Peng Yichen's heart warmed, he knew how difficult it was for a group actor to have the opportunity to enter a company like Huimin, Huang Bo gave up the opportunity to sign a contract with Huimin Film and Television immediately for him, and he remembered this affection deeply.
"I did mention you to Mr. Xiao, but that was after I negotiated the terms of the contract with Mr. Xiao. And Mr. Xiao told me at the time that they were very satisfied with your performance in the crew, and they were going to discuss the signing with you after the finale. Peng Yichen shrugged with a smile.
"So don't stink, I didn't get this treatment because of you. ”
Huang Bo stared at Peng Yichen's eyes for a while, but found no trace of lying.
"Then why did you agree to accept this kind of treatment? Although you can't get the treatment of first-tier and second-tier stars, you can get at least 60% of your income, and the signing fee is not less than 100,000 yuan. ”
"My contract is different from others, there are some requirements in it, which few entertainment economic companies can accept, so in order to make up for the loss of Huimin Film and Television Company, I can only sign a contract on such terms. Speaking of this, Peng Yichen couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I request that a clause be added to the contract that the company cannot arrange for me to participate in any non-film or TV series activities such as publicity, commercial performances, advertisements, endorsements, galas, TV programs, etc., unless I agree. Of course, I will cooperate with the promotion of the movies and TV series I have starred in. ”
"Uh!!......" Huang Bo didn't know what to say when he heard this. "That's your condition, you have a grudge against money. ”
Huang Bo looked at Peng Yichen's eyes like looking at a fool, are good actors all crazy.
Most of the income that entertainment economic companies can obtain through artists comes from the income from advertising, endorsements, commercial performances, TV programs and other activities after the artists are famous.
Peng Yichen's request means that the company can only take a cut from his film and TV series salary.
At present, first-line stars in China can get a maximum of 1 million for a movie, and a TV series can only get a salary of about 1.5 million at most.
But it is difficult for a person to make a few TV series and movies a year at most, and it is difficult to earn more than 10 million a year, which is still an income that can only be obtained by first-line stars.
Peng Yichen's condition is equivalent to letting Huimin Film and Television take the initiative to give up a large amount of money, which is almost unacceptable to a private company.
What is the difference between Peng Yichen, who proposed such conditions, and being crazy in the eyes of others?
