Li Cai and Gu Yu, who were in joy, had forgotten all about betting and everything in their heads.

The role is decided, and the next step is to negotiate the contract, so there is the scene of the three people sitting in the office at the beginning of the first chapter above. (Oh Mom, I've written ten chapters, and I'm finally back here)

The office is on the side of Xidan, which is Jing Yuanliang's own studio, not far from Chuanda, and several people came by Jing Yuanliang's car.

To be honest, Jing Yuanliang is a little confused.

When he communicated with Gu Yu and said that he wanted to sign a contract. Unexpectedly, the other party would be shy, blushing, and replied very shamefully: "I'm sorry, you can talk to my agent about the contract." ”

Then, the agent Li Cai licked his big face and jumped out of the side with a smile like a fool.

Jing Yuanliang really can't understand why a student who has not graduated from college has already signed a brokerage company, and the little money he earns can afford to support an agent?

Fortunately, whether you understand or not, understand or not, the appearance of Li Cai, the agent, will not affect the signing of the contract, after all, everyone's appeal is in the same direction.

The reason why Jing Yuanliang came to the school to recruit actors was because the cost of filming was too high, and he didn't have much money to invite celebrities, so it was cheap and easy to use.

And Gu Yu plays this role, the salary is important, but the salary that doesn't have much money to support the death obviously doesn't represent everything.

What is really important to him is to seize this opportunity, play a good role, make himself famous, and be known by more people, so that he can get more opportunities in the future in order to develop better, which is called a good fate.

One wants to save money, the other wants to be famous, and he doesn't care too much about the level of salary, so the contract is naturally easy to negotiate.

After simple communication and mutual concessions, the final salary was 80,000 yuan, and the filming period was two months. After more than two months, $5,000 was added for each additional week of shooting.

The latter article was agreed to by Jing Yuanliang at Li Cai's strong request.

The reason why there is this requirement is because Li Cai has heard the story of Jing Yuanliang in this regard, it is said that it is common for this old brother to shoot slowly, maybe because of the relationship of excellence, his shooting plan will never be able to catch up with the changes.

was originally set to be filmed in one day, but he may have to shoot for three or five days before it can be finished.

The contract said that the filming period would be two months, but it is estimated that it will take more than three months to wait for the completion of the project. If this article is not raised, it will be equivalent to giving him more than a month's work for nothing, which is unacceptable.

And apart from this, there is no other dispute between the two sides. The salary of 80,000 yuan is indeed not high, and even a little low, but for a pure newcomer like Gu Yu and a college student, it can be regarded as a conscience price.

……

The matter was settled, and then Jing Yuanliang called the producer and asked him to come over with the contract.

In fact, under normal circumstances, the contract or something should be negotiated with the producer. But it's a pity that the producer of this movie is the investor's brother-in-law, a pure layman, and a pure newcomer like Gu Yu, so when it comes to the contract, he can only let director Jing Yuanliang handle it.

Or to be more accurate, all the preparations for this movie were all carried by Jing Yuanliang himself, which is the disadvantage of independent films.

Regardless of country or region in the world, all films will be divided into two categories, one is called independent films, and the other is called commercial films.

The so-called commercial films do not refer to commercial films, in fact, commercial films also include literary films, cult films, and even documentaries, of course, the most important category is commercial films.

The so-called commercial films refer to all types of films prepared by large film companies, invested by film companies, produced by film companies, and distributed by film companies.

On the other hand, independent films are generally films in which directors find their own investors, prepare their own shooting plans, participate in various film festivals, and find their own ways to produce and distribute films.

Independent, commercial, the obvious difference.

To take the simplest example, Feng Xiaogang can be regarded as holding up half of Huayi's country. All the films made by Director Feng in Huayi, whether it is the main theme of "The Assembly" or the later "Fanghua", are typical commercial films, although from the perspective of genre films, they are not commercial.

And if one day, Director Feng and Huayi fall out, and they come out to independently attract investment and make movies.

Even if he shoots purely commercial films such as "No Thieves in the World" or "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", he must be an independent film director, not a commercial film.

Jing Yuanliang is such an independent film director, and to be honest, shooting independent films is a good thing for newcomers.

Because, in order to sell for a high price, independent films are always taken by directors and producers to various film festivals. Dozens of film festivals have been strolled, and you as a newcomer can be lucky enough to win an award at which film festival, no matter how bad it is, you can be familiar with the industry.

Of course, this is beneficial and harmless to Gu Yu......

Soon, the brother-in-law producer arrived with a freshly printed contract.

Before signing the contract, Li Cai carefully and meticulously reviewed it for Gu Yu. He knows these people too well, and the people in this industry are all very stolen, who knows if there are any traps in the contract.

I went through all the terms one by one, but fortunately, Lao Jing is still quite reliable, and he didn't have any dirty work. Seeing this, Li Cai didn't have much to do, and hurriedly asked Gu Yu to sign the contract, settle down early, and make a profit as soon as possible.

Gu Yu was more anxious than him, and after taking the contract, he signed it directly without even looking at it, as if he had picked up a big wallet. The liar specially deceived a fool like him, and he was not afraid of what to do if it was a bureau set up by Li Cai and Jing Yuanliang.

"Fortunately, if he wasn't a fool, he wouldn't have been able to deceive him!" Thinking about this, Li Cai was immediately relieved.

After the contract was signed, the two chatted for a while in Director Jing's office, chatting about the role and a series of problems in the subsequent filming.

However, Director Jing is still very busy, just a few minutes away from a phone call, and the office door will be knocked on from time to time because of various things, and everything has to be decided by him.

Seeing this, Li Cai and Gu Yu didn't dare to stay for a long time, for fear of delaying other people's business. After staying for more than ten minutes, the two of them soon found an excuse to say goodbye and leave.

Jing Yuanliang didn't stay, sent them to the door of the office, and went back by himself.

Well, I sent it to the door of the office, and I didn't even go out of the door of the studio. There's no way, who made the family a well-known director and a nobody, Li Cai said that he understood very much......
