The Spring Festival is too short for busy people, Wang Zuxian is going to start work on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and honestly lives back in her car, but Li Jiaxin has free time, and has been staying at home with Chen Jin and Emperor Hu's indulgence. It's only on the fourth day of the new year that the socializing and various activities that start in the new year begin, and few people can stay at home, unless you are not popular!

Chen Jin is not unpopular, but Chen Zichen has pushed away a lot of unnecessary activities for him a few years ago, relatively speaking, it is relatively easy, and there is still time to go to a few acquaintances' houses to contact and contact feelings.

On the morning of the fifth day of the new year, Brother Qiang's phone called, and he made an appointment to meet in his company's office at nine o'clock, and when Chen Jin rushed over, Wang Zuxian and Li Jiaxin also happened to be there.

There is also director Liu Guochang in Brother Qiang's office, Chen Jin is not familiar with him, and he has never heard of this name before, but this is not a problem, people are born to mature, not to mention that Brother Qiang is really in charge of Yongsheng.

didn't be too verbose, after introducing it, he began to go to the studio on the side to audition, Liu Guochang knew very well that Chen Jin was a rookie, but Brother Qiang had already told him that as long as he could make do with it, he would use it, and he was also a little confused why Brother Qiang praised Chen Jin, but he didn't say much.

The biggest difference between filming a TV series and a movie for an actor is that when filming a TV series, the camera is basically looking for you, and you just have to act with the actor who plays the opposite role, but the movie is different, you have to go to the camera, and your expressions and lines are basically shown to the camera.

For example, when filming a clip where you say I love you to a woman, when you are filming a TV series, you look at this woman very affectionately, and then say to her I love you; But in a movie, you are looking at the camera, and you have to show your affection to the camera, not at the woman and say I love you to the camera.

It's a very simple difference, but many actors who make TV series are not good when they make movies, and they are even ridiculously bad - the feeling of showing his style and language to a living flesh-and-blood object and a cold machine is too different, let's say shameless, your feeling towards a living and explosive beauty is absolutely different from that of a model, the feelings you invest in are completely different, and the degree of devotion is much worse.

Chen Jin knows these things very well, although he has not yet reached the random change of mood and expression like his heart, but he can also quickly grasp the kind of emotions that he needs at the moment.

At first, Liu Guochang was very suspicious and worried, but when he ordered Chen Jin to do it very easily, he breathed a sigh of relief, at least, he was barely qualified now.

Of course, this is not over, since he wants to shoot, he must understand it more thoroughly, so he began to let Chen Jin make more performance details according to the plot, such as the kind of youthful and honest at the beginning, affectionate style, ruthlessness when occasionally hideous, lazy and jumping out when demoted, etc.

After trying them one by one, Liu Guochang had nothing to say, especially at this age, after Chen Jin waxed his hair and turned it white, he immediately had the grace of a forty or fifty-year-old person, not at all like a twenty-one-year-old young man.

To be honest, he feels that Chen Jin is really a genius, that kind of excellent sense of camera, that ability to switch scenes freely, that kind of super acting ability, etc., are like a veteran who has been filming for many years, and even he feels that this drama will be more glorious because of Chen Jin's joining, and it will also be an important first step in Chen Jin's future glorious journey.

After working for half an hour, Liu Jiachang asked the staff to remove Chen Jin's makeup, shook hands with him politely, and said with a smile: "King Shao, you did a good job, not bad than those actors." This is naturally a compliment, but the performance is not bad, Li Jiaxin and Wang Zuxian, who have been watching next to him, are all shining and very surprised.

After a few words of greeting, he walked to Brother Qiang who was watching on the other side, with a smile on his face, "Brother Qiang, your vision is really speechless, although Wang Shao is acting for the first time, his strength is amazing." ”

Brother Qiang has been watching from the sidelines, he is also acting, so he can naturally see the good and the bad, to be honest, just now Chen Jin turned his hair white, and the momentum of sitting there with a cigar in his mouth has shocked him, and at that moment he was completely a hero, just like he should have been.

"Ah King, you are really surprising and surprising everywhere!" When Chen Jin came up, Brother Qiang patted him on the arm and said casually, "You haven't acted before, I think you're quite familiar!" ”

"Brother Qiang should praise me when he says that!" Chen Jin laughed, "I don't like to think about it, I've been with Fa Ge and them for a long time, I've heard and seen a lot, and I have a lot of opportunities to go to the set. ”

Brother Qiang also knew what Chen Jin was still hiding, he refused to say it, so he didn't force it, the two of them were now very close, and smiled, "Okay, this matter is settled, you are welcome to join." ”

Chen Jin also thanked him politely, and Brother Qiang saw that Li Jiaxin and Wang Zuxian were auditioning, and asked casually, "Ah King, about the contract, do you want to talk about it after Miss Chen comes back?" ”

According to the rules, the contract is generally negotiated by the agent and the artist together, and with Chen Zichen's background and the relationship with Chen Jin, it is not good that Chen Zichen is completely in charge, but a few days ago, he saw Chen Jin openly bring Li Jiaxin and Wang Zuxian back to his home, and that situation was too weird.

"It doesn't matter, whoever calls the shots!" Chen Jin said lightly, which made Brother Qiang even more unpredictable, but then Chen Jin said something that made Brother Qiang quite surprised, "Brother Qiang, I have a good idea, I don't know what you think, that is, the question of remuneration, we don't need to calculate the fixed amount of money, but use another method, such as the proportion of box office revenue or the proportion of the producer's profit to dividends." ”

Brother Qiang reacted after being stunned for a moment, this is also the strangeness that he has seen too much Chen Jin, he always has a variety of ideas and opinions.

The difference between box office revenue and producer income is that 53 percent of the distributor's distribution fee is removed, which is more than 50 percent of the record distributor, but this is also a rule that has long been established in the film industry.

After thinking about it, he pulled Chen Jin to say hello to Liu Guochang and walked to the office, "Come, let's have a good chat, and you can also carefully talk about your thoughts." ”

In fact, there are competitive salaries, such as direct shareholding with salary, but that is a treatment that can only be enjoyed by super big names, of course, there are also good scripts that want to borrow the popularity of a certain big name, but the producer doesn't have much money, so he also uses this method to invite some big names.

As for the proportion of box office revenue or producer income, this is naturally a bit more than what you get from buying shares, but it is also a competitive way to get a salary.

In some respects, if the box office of a movie is super poor, only about 50 million, but his previous estimate is 200 to 300 million, and the investment is 80 million, of which there are two superstars with a fixed value of 10 million, then, if you use the competitive sharing of remuneration, according to the calculation of 6% slightly higher than the estimated ratio, the two people will only get more than 4 million, so that the loss of the film company will be immediately reduced by more than 10 million.

However, if the box office is 300 million or more, or even if it is only 200 million, these two superstars will be able to benefit from an additional 2 million, which is very tempting. Where the power lies.

Chen Jin didn't hide it from Brother Qiang, told him everything he could say, and then continued: "This is only one aspect, there are other ways, such as the floating sharing method, if the box office is 10 million, it will be divided into 5%, if it is 20 million, it will be 6 or 7 percent, but if it is only 8 million, then it can only take 4 percent." If you are sure, you will naturally give him a fixed amount of money, but if you are not sure, giving points to others is also a way to share your own pressure. ”

These methods are not common in the later film and television circles, but there are a lot, Chen Jin himself is not a big name, but he has heard a lot, at this time it is naturally very easy to say, but Brother Qiang gave a thumbs up, "Okay, Ah King, you really know everything, no wonder people outside say that you are smart, as if you were born to know, I really admire you more and more." ”

Chen Jin didn't need to be polite, he smiled slightly, "It seems that Brother Qiang is quite recognized, why don't we taste something new." ”

Brother Qiang was even more cheerful, nodding with a smile, "Okay, since it's your idea, then you can talk about your opinions and ideas first!" Originally, Chen Jin was asked to act in this film to save favors, but since Chen Jin's acting skills are no problem at all, the previous arrangement is inferior, so he thought that it was okay to compensate Chen Jin in terms of salary, not to mention, this is indeed a pretty good novelty.

Chen Jin didn't rush to say, but asked, "That's okay, but mine first asks, what is Brother Qiang's expected box office for this film?" ”

It is probably expected that everyone has it, and Brother Qiang is no exception, but his film is a little different, just like two episodes, it needs to be released again, according to the current situation, there are too few films over 30 million, and if there are two episodes, unless the next episode is very good, the general perception will be a little worse, smiled, "This film is not bad, we have also discussed, two episodes are probably between 100 million and 50 million." ”

Chen Jin didn't mean to question it, and smiled slightly, "Okay, let's calculate according to the goal of 50 million, 50 million is calculated according to 6 percent, and I only need 5 percent below 50 million, but if it reaches 60 million, then we have to add a point, and so on 10 million and 1 percentage points, until 10 percent, how about it?" ”
