Chapter 230: Background Board

On the afternoon of July 21, 3 days have passed since the screening of "Fuse".

In the past three days, Li Manyu has used almost all the connections at her disposal! Sparing no effort to hype up this matter on the Internet and paper media, coupled with a large number of large-scale water armies, it is enough to turn Donnie Yen into a black one!

Whether in China or in Hollywood, the vast majority of famous action stars are tough, bright, great, and just!

Cheng Long and Li Lianjie are like this, and so are Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Steven Seagal and others in Hollywood.

Everyone's style may be different, but they are in the audience's impression of tough, glorious and positive.

And Donnie Yen's actions naturally subverted the image he had worked so hard to create in the past, and replaced him with a villain who bullied the weak and played behind his back.

If it's just that, forget it, after all, the world still worships the strong.

The most fatal thing is that he and Liu Dong were defeated in less than ten moves, and the image of a kung fu master collapsed instantly.

"This matter is over, and I will ask them to stop the negative PR against Donnie Yen after the contract is signed!"

Driving in the car bound for Huairou Film and Television Base, Li Manyu said to Liu Dong.

"Why?" Liu Dong wondered.

"It's no longer necessary, and the Media Asia behind Donnie Yen is definitely ready to start public relations!"

"Could it be that they can still whitewash Donnie Yen?"

"Donnie Yen is not only an actor highly praised by Media Asia, but also the leader of the Mesozoic generation in Xiangjiang, he will not fall silent so easily!"

"Besides, our goal has been achieved, even if he collapses from now on, it will not do you any good, it will only be a waste of resources!"

Liu Dong nodded, this negative public relations is for the two roles of "Jiangshan Beauty" and "Painted Skin", Li Manyu estimates that he also owes a lot of favors, and now it is really not necessary.

"That's okay, but even if we stop now, other media that follow the trend probably won't stop!"

"The other party will naturally find a way in that regard, and now you should hope that Donnie Yen can cheer up, and even become more and more popular!" Li Manyu smiled again.

"What do you say?" Liu Dong was a little strange, and he didn't know what Li Manyu meant.

"As long as Donnie Yen becomes more popular, this matter will always follow him, and more and more people will know about it, which is naturally equivalent to helping you do propaganda in disguise!" Li Manyu explained.

Now Liu Dong understands, for example.

If Donnie Yen was just a nobody, no one would care about this matter at all.

On the contrary, if Donnie Yen is replaced by Li Lianjie and Cheng Long, the impact will not only be like this today, it is estimated that one-tenth of the people in the country will know his Liu Dong's name.

There is no doubt that Donnie Yen has now become Liu Dong's background board, and it is still a pretty good background board.

For example, an ordinary small CBA guard slapped Kobe Bryant's backward shot on the basketball court and pressed Kobe Bryant to the ground.

Kobe Bryant was lying on the ground, and the small CBA guard was standing opposite him, and a basketball slammed to the ground next to the two.

Wouldn't it be exciting to watch such a scene?

If you change the two places, it will be commonplace!

Liu Dong still has some understanding of the ability to bleach in the entertainment industry, as long as he is not labeled as "treason", there is basically nothing that cannot be washed off.

And "Ip Man" will be released next year, as long as this movie is there, it is almost impossible for Donnie Yen to fall.

Under the patriotic feelings promoted by "Ip Man", this bit of negative news is nothing.

"By the way, how is the box office of "The True Colors of Men"?" Liu Dong suddenly remembered that he still had a movie being released.

"Two days after its release, the box office was 5 million, not very optimistic!" Li Manyu shook his head and said a number.

"It's just been released, and there is only more than 2 million box office in a day, and it seems that there is no hope for 50 million!" Liu Dong sighed.

took out the computer and took a look at Douban and Time, and the scores were more than 7 points, which is definitely a high score in domestic movies, but now there is really no market for action movies, no matter how good the shooting is, no one will watch it.

With a cost of 80 million, it is basically impossible to recover the cost if you can't sell overseas copyrights.

Liu Dong held a three-minute silence for those investors.

chatting all the way, Liu Dong came to Huairou Film and Television Base again to accept the results of this time.

"Hello Director Cheng!"

"Hello Producer Chen!"

In the office, Liu Dong said hello to Cheng Xiaodong and Chen Kexin successively.

"Liu Dong is here, let's take a look at the contract and see if there is anything else to add!" Cheng Xiaodong beckoned them to sit down and handed over the two contracts.

"Thank you Director Cheng!"

Liu Dong and Li Manyu took a contract and looked at it carefully.

The salary is 2.5 million, which is what I told Liu Dong on the phone before, there is nothing to say in this regard, let alone 250, even if it is 2 million, he will take it.

Yesterday, Liu Dong went to Huayi to finalize the contract for "Painted Skin", and the other party only gave 1.5 million, which was lower than "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor".

After some bargaining, it only rose by 300,000.

According to Hua Yi, their crew is not as good as "Seeing the Dragon and Unloading the Armor" with hundreds of millions of investments, and the actor Chen Kun only got 4 million.

Anyway, it can't be more than 2 million to death, and there is a posture of loving to sign or not.

Now that "Jiangshan Beauty" has given him 2.5 million, he is about to touch the hurdle of a second-tier movie star, and it is not far from working hard to be a first-line star!

Liu Dong also looked at the other terms one by one, and in the past, he only cared about the more important things such as salary, and he didn't care much about other details.

But now that you're the star, the details of the contract reflect your status in the crew, and he must be cautious.

The terms of the deposit, remuneration and payment method will be paid in 4 installments, which will be paid in equal proportions on the day the contract is signed, the day the crew starts filming, the filming is halfway through and the film is completed.

There is no controversy, the salary cannot be paid to you in a lump sum.

Cooperate with the crew's promotional activities, accommodation, food and transportation expenses incurred during the filming, corresponding insurance and related confidentiality clauses.

The copyright is all owned by the crew, and if there is any addition, change, etc., the crew needs to pay additional remuneration.

......

There are dozens of them, and Liu Dong spent more than half an hour reading them word for word to confirm that there are no problems.

Li Manyu also put down the contract, glanced at Liu Dong, nodded to each other, signed the two contracts, and handed them back to Cheng Xiaodong.

"Director Cheng, happy cooperation!"

"Happy working together!"

During the entire signing process, Chen Kexin did not say a word except for a formula-like speech, and kept a straight face.

However, Liu Dong doesn't care, people can't make friends with everyone, especially in this entertainment industry full of competition.

It's good to meet so many friends.

Chen Kexin didn't even give him the male number three, and he had already decided that Liu Dong would have another enemy.
