027 Negotiate again
Chen Shaoyi drank tea by himself, and put Xu Xiaoming aside, Xu Xiaoming was not annoyed, he knew that his proposal was a bit unkind, he didn't want to do it, but the real owner of Li was not Huang Xizhao, nor was he Chinese, but a group of British ghosts, who did not have the virtues of the Chinese nation at all, and were all a group of bastards who saw money.
Although Xu Xiaoming is the hero of Li, but Li's senior management has made this decision, he Xu Xiaoming is soft-spoken, and he is under the eaves, so he has to bow his head.
After being assigned to this task, Xu Xiaoming was also very distressed, this errand was not easy to do, he couldn't be too tough, provoke Chen Shaoyi unhappy, and break up in the end; You can't be too weak, if you are too weak, where can Chen Shaoyi agree.
Therefore, Xu Xiaoming was sad about this, and after thinking hard, he dared to invite Chen Shaoyi to come to Li again, so that he had the scene he performed before.
Xu Xiaoming now saw that Chen Shaoyi did not show a very indignant look on his face, as if he was thinking about the gains and losses of his own interests, Xu Xiaoming did not dare to disturb Chen Shaoyi, and let Chen Shaoyi sit there and think by himself, and the office was quiet for a while.
Chen Shaoyi's brain was like a generator at this time, and he was thinking about Li's unilateral request to do this, what losses he had, and what remedies he had.
Obviously, once Heli cancels the agreement, Chen Shaoyi will not be able to get a sky-high price of 1 million for selling scripts in the future, and the money he gets will be greatly reduced, and his own interests will be damaged too seriously.
On the other hand, Chen Shaoyi also thought that this script would sell for more than one million, and after having it once, it would be absolutely impossible for Li to do it a second time, and no one likes to be the wrongdoer.
And after the hit of "Hero Huo Yuanjia", Li's is no longer the original downfall, Li's was defeated by wireless's "Shanghai Tang", but now she has won a big battle and turned over.
It's not the same now, Li's definitely won't be doing that kind of behavior of rushing to the doctor, and it's very normal for Li's to not want to continue with this kind of contract that is obviously not in Li's own interests.
Therefore, Chen Shaoyi is still mentally prepared for this if he sells the script to Li again in the future, and he can no longer follow the previous contract.
Now the key is that the drama "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River" is still within the validity of that contract, if you must abide by the contract, there is no way to stop Li's side, unless they will never be released, obviously this is impossible.
Although "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River" may still need to pay Chen Shaoyi a large amount of remuneration, the high ratings of the TV series will have a greater benefit for Li, so Li's can only temporarily suppress "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River" not to be broadcast, rather than permanently stopping the broadcast. Besides, since Li's has already produced "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River", the production fee and the actor's remuneration must be a lot, and the money must not be wasted; So Li's obviously won't do things that are big because of small things, and sooner or later she will broadcast "The Home of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River".
Chen Shaoyi is still very optimistic about this "The Home of the Earth's Kindness in the Pearl River", and the ratings should not lose too much to "The Hero Huo Yuanjia", coupled with the reason for the ratings of the habitual surname, that is to say, when a TV series with high ratings is broadcast, because the audience has locked Li's TV station for a long time, it is likely that Li's TV station will be chosen in the next time, and when the audience knows that the screenwriter of "The Home of the Earth's Kindness in the Pearl River" is still the same person, the audience is likely to chase after this "The Home of the Earth's Kindness in the Pearl River". Li's must be very optimistic about this drama, otherwise they would not have proposed to modify the contract at this time, they are really afraid that if the ratings of "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River" are too high, they will have to give Chen Shaoyi a sky-high reward.
If Chen Shaoyi insists on following the contract, he may get a lot more money, but he will definitely have a grudge with Li. And at present, Chen Shaoyi's script can only be sold at a good price in Li's, he doesn't really want to have a grudge with Li, plus his sister Ling and others are in Li's, Chen Shaoyi will not have a grudge with Li's. Li's group of ghosts still thought about it very comprehensively, and only then did they dare to unscrupulously ask Chen Shaoyi to revise the contract.
For Li's doing, Chen Shaoyi wants to say that he is not angry at all, it is impossible, for Li's obvious behavior of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, Chen Shaoyi is both contemptuous and indignant in his heart, but reason tells him that he has to hold back, he has to accept Li's, and he must not be rash.
Since you must accept Li's, how to seek greater benefits for yourself and minimize your losses?
Chen Shaoyi thought for a while and didn't have too many clues, and simply asked Xu Xiaoming tentatively: "Director Xu, I don't know what Li's offer is for my other drama "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River"? ”
Hearing that Chen Shaoyi finally spoke, Xu Xiaoming cheered up and replied: "Chen Sheng, that's the case, the latest remuneration that Li's will give to "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River" is 400,000. ”
"Four hundred thousand?" Chen Shaoyi playfully played with the tea set, "It seems that Li is really generous, this has increased from 200,000 last time to 400,000, which has doubled." ”
Xu Xiaoming heard the faint irony in Chen Shaoyi's words, 400,000 was indeed twice as high as the previous 200,000, but in front of the more than 1 million in "Hero Huo Yuanjia", the difference was too big, and Xu Xiaoming felt a sense of emptiness when he quoted.
The heart is empty, and the task assigned by the TV station cannot but be completed, Xu Xiaoming can only bite the bullet and say: "Chen Sheng, Li still values you very much, now a script sold for 400,000 yuan is already the treatment of the top screenwriter, you can go and inquire, there is no screenwriter in Hong Kong who has this treatment, and the value of an actor filming a drama is not so high." ”
Xu Xiaoming is also very reasonable, the most valuable Chen Long drama in this era is only about 600,000 yuan, and Hong Kong screenwriters are in a subordinate position in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, which is not very valued, unlike Hollywood, as a screenwriter, you can enjoy a share of the box office and TV revenue.
Chen Shaoyi listened to Xu Xiaoming's tone, and sensitively felt that what Xu Xiaoming said was not very tough, it seems that there is still something to be done here, and Li's bottom line should be more than 400,000.
Chen Shaoyi deliberately sighed and said, "Director Xu, it seems that Li's sincerity is insufficient." ”
"Why did Chen Sheng say this?"
"Director Xu, everyone understands people, I know that although the previous contract was beneficial to both companies, but Li's payment to me was a little more, but Li's side did not lose, do you say?"
Xu Xiaoming nodded unconsciously, and only after nodding did he realize that something was wrong, and was about to say something to refute Chen Shaoyi's words, when Chen Shaoyi interrupted him.
"And now Director Xu said that he was only willing to give me a script of 400,000 yuan, which is too far from the previous standard, and it is difficult for me to accept it."
Chen Shaoyi did not say that he would not accept it, but only said, "It's hard to accept." The word "difficult" is to leave a space for everyone to talk about each other, and they can also seek more benefits for themselves.
Xu Xiaoming is also a person with a heart, as soon as he heard Chen Shaoyi's words, he understood the meaning of Chen Shaoyi's words, and he was secretly relieved in his heart, it seems that today's task is likely to be completed.
Xu Xiaoming cheered up the spirit, "Chen Sheng, I'll tell you the truth, it is impossible for Li to pay the price of more than one million for a script like "Hero Huo Yuanjia", even if "The House of Kindness of the Earth in the Pearl River" may achieve the ratings of "Hero Huo Yuanjia", it is impossible for Li to sign that kind of contract with you in the future, and it is impossible for you to stop writing scripts in the future, and the transaction with Li is not just done once, as long as Li's future script is good, Li's purchase price will not be less than 400,000 yuan. It's a long-term deal, so why wouldn't you? ”
