Chapter 118 Contract Delivery (Part I)
Vertical day.
Jiahe's Zou Wenhuai and others found Ye Jingcheng.
During this conversation, the two sides have reached a preliminary agreement on cooperation. Although Ye Jingcheng's personality is difficult to grasp, in the end he is a rooster who lays golden eggs.
Zou Wenhuai and He Guanchang can reserve their opinions on this condition, but how can a few other shareholders who value interests easily let the gold flow away from their hands?
Therefore, Ye Jingcheng's seemingly excessive demand, two million scripts plus one million remuneration, after a round of board deliberation, was approved with absolute support.
However, this account has to be settled well, Ye Jingcheng personally took 3 million, if you add a series of actors' salaries, production fees, publicity fees, etc...
If you follow the production fee of one million, the actor's salary of two million, plus zero miscellaneous taxes. In order for the film to recover its cost at this step, the box office performance must reach at least 15 million.
Golden Harvest's decision seems confused, but in fact, are they really losing? Wrong, first of all, they are directly preparing for the film with the theater side, and the box office results they have achieved are their gains.
The 15 million box office only needs to deduct 20% of the venue, taxes and other miscellaneous items, and then the star salary, production costs, plus Ye Jingcheng's sum, the cost can be kept within 9 million.
In addition, the theater side does not have more than one revenue channel, in addition to the box office of the movie, there is also the operation of peripherals and food. A blockbuster movie can make the theater chain reap a huge profit, and this amount will not be less than the box office revenue.
It seems that it takes fifteen million to pay back the film, but in fact, its actual cost is less than half. Of course, they also need to take some risks. For example, this film simply didn't sell so high at the box office.
But there is one of the biggest channels for theaters, and that is the overseas box office. This result is more than 2~3 times the box office of the city. Therefore, Ye Jingcheng put forward this request, as long as the box office in this port reaches 5 million. The cinema side will not lose money.
This is also the only condition offered by Golden Harvest, if the film fails to achieve this result, Ye Jingcheng must spit it out with interest. For other producers, the money is not so easy to take. But for Ye Jingcheng, is it difficult to guarantee a minimum box office of five million? If it weren't for the full set of plays, he wouldn't even be able to watch it.
Just as Ye Jingcheng left the gate of Jiahe, a group of reporters who didn't know where they were pouring out instantly surrounded him, and the long guns and short cannons in their hands were also aimed at him.
"Ye Sheng. I heard that in order to repay your debts, you have 'sold yourself' to Golden Harvest? A reporter from Sing Tao Daily took the lead in asking questions.
"Ye Sheng, you have cooperated with the Shaw Brothers and Princess Jin, and have successively terminated or been terminated by them, is there anything unknown about it?" Oriental Daily is still difficult.
"Ye Sheng, what kind of conditions does Jiahe offer? It is rumored that you are cooperating in your personal name this time, and you have nothing to do with its Green Lantern Entertainment. The reporter hurriedly continued the topic.
"Ye Sheng, about the incident where you broke ......" also brought up the old story by reporters.
"Ye Sheng ......"
Ye Jingcheng only felt a crackling sound in his ears, and these people obviously appeared only after being instructed by others.
Among them, Princess Jin and Shaw Brothers are more suspicious. On the Shaw side, it may be that Fang Yihua deliberately sent someone to make trouble, and Princess Jin may be that Lei Juekun is worried that his position is not firm enough, so that the alliance agreement between the two before will be invalidated.
However, Ye Jingcheng has more reason to believe that this scene was directed and acted by Golden Harvest. To do so is nothing more than to cut off his back road.
First create a gap between him, the Shaw Family, and Princess Jin. made him have to give up follow-up contact with these two theaters in order to protect his reputation.
"No comment." Ye Jingcheng squeezed straight through the crowd until he walked out of the gate of Golden Harvest. The security guard in charge of the place rushed over in a 'hurry'. One by one, the reporters were dispersed in the posture of wicked people.
"Ye Sheng, this time it is our dereliction of responsibility. We didn't expect so many reporters to sneak in. The security guard who took the lead apologized.
But this is false, if the reporter wants to get involved. It's really not a difficult thing to do. But three or so people can understand, you say that twenty or thirty people are mixed in... Even idiots can find out about the situation, right?
What's more, there are so many long guns and short cannons, even if they are stuffed into the crotch of their pants, or hidden in chrysanthemums. Shame on your mother's blindness! Really can't catch the slightest abnormality?
Ye Jingcheng glanced at him condescendingly, and then walked in the direction of his vehicle. Seeing Ye Jingcheng's departure, the security captain put away his original smile, there seemed to be a trace of haze in his eyes, and waved his hand to return to his post with the other security guards.

Qianlong Investment Co., Ltd.
Cao Renchao was holding the phone and talking until he put it down. Li Zhengping on the side asked, "How is it?" Ye Sheng, won't he come today? ”
"But here, he said we'll just take care of these little things." Cao Renchaofan smiled bitterly. If the next actions are called small things, then he doesn't know if he has the opportunity to contact the so-called big things in his life.
Getting this answer, Li Zhengping also smiled bitterly and said: "Sometimes I really can't see through Ye Sheng, and I always do something unexpected. Obviously there are already such great achievements, why do you want to meddle in the affairs of the entertainment industry. ”
"Ahem, don't talk about that." In fact, Cao Renchao really wants to say, didn't you read the newspaper some time ago? Maybe the boss is going for the actress.
Cao Renchao clapped his palms and attracted the attention of the four employees. announced: "Ye Sheng just placed an order and decided to deal with all the futures contracts in his hand, and you immediately start to contact the buyer to fight for three trading sessions to solve the problem of all contracts." ”
"Of course, your fatigue during this time. Ye Sheng also saw in his eyes that as long as this transaction was completed, one letter per person would not be less than one million. After ordering the task, Cao Renchao did not forget to encourage.
"Oh!!" The atmosphere that was originally somewhat dull immediately became turbulent. The four newly hired employees are barely the elite of the industry, and the average monthly salary is about 10,000 yuan. A million is a windfall and a huge sum of money for them.
"Archie, how much do you estimate Ye Sheng can earn this time?" The person who spoke was called Ou Yangming, the youngest of the four new employees, and he was also the most talkative. He has been struggling with this final answer to Ye Jingcheng's investment this time.
"How can you say that there are billions and eight billions, right?" This question went straight to Jia Shiqi's heart, in fact, he was also very curious about this question. If the data weren't too general and complicated, he would definitely settle the account privately.
"Hey! You two, just do your part. There are some things that you should not know, so be smart and keep your mouth shut. Li Zhengping found out about this situation and immediately ordered the two to stop the topic.
"Huh!" Seeing this, the two immediately buried themselves in work.
At this time, Cao Renchao walked over. He reached out and patted Li Zhengping's shoulder, and raised his chin towards the office, motioning for him to take a step to speak.
When it comes to curiosity, none of the employees present will be more important than them.
It was because they knew more details, so this account was completely separated by a gauze curtain in front of them, and of course they couldn't wait to open it to see.
The two entered the office and did not forget to monitor the employees' movements through the glass windows. Cao Renchao took the lead in initiating the topic and said, "Zhengping, have you ever played with it?" ”
Li Zhengping stretched out a slap in reply, and asked rhetorically, "What about you?" ”
"Then you're lucky, I've just voted so much." Cao Renchao only stretched out three fingers, and futures trading can only be regarded as a speculation, so Cao Renchao's 'guts' are naturally not as bold as Li Zhengping's in this regard.
"I secretly calculated this account, and I can probably get 20 million." Li Zhengping didn't mind telling the secret to the other party, on the contrary, he also wanted to find someone to share the pleasure.
In fact, he was sticking to Ye Jingcheng's tail and entering the market before the price of silver completely collapsed. Although the rate of return is not as high as Ye Jingcheng, the 20 million is still relatively conservative.
"According to your calculations, then I can pick up more than 10 million." For this windfall, Cao Renchao could not have described it as a pick-up.
It's really that they follow a good owner, even if they follow him and eat some leftovers, it is enough to make them big fat guys. If he relied on his own efforts, this money would not have been earned in ten years. (To be continued.) )
