Chapter 6: Bad News, Good News!
"The average national rating of "Blue Life and Death Love" Nielsen is less than 30 percent, and the remuneration for each episode is 1 million won, if it reaches 30 percent, it will be 25 million per episode, and after that, for every 5 percent increase in the average rating, the remuneration will increase by 5 million per episode, and in addition, it will also receive ......5 percent of the overseas copyright revenue."
At this time, the remuneration clause in the contract in front of Lee Chung-hee was obtained by Director Jang Dong-guk of Imperial Entertainment and Song Yong-jin, director of kBs Television Production Department II, after more than ten days of negotiations.
Since you are not satisfied with the three million won episode, and you want to get some gambling agreement, Song Yongjin is also trying to give Lee Chung-hee and them some color to see, and finally only give you one million episodes.
It's just that Nielsen's benchmark of 20 percent of the national ratings is not very safe, so Song Yongzhen raised the benchmark directly to 30 percent as soon as he thought about it.
A full 10 percent increase, this benchmark is the same as 20 percent more than a decade later, the difficulty is not ordinarily high, and luck is not enough.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that Director Zhang Dongguo of Imperial Entertainment actually agreed, but he directly added another 5 million episodes to the original standard of 30% of the ratings of only 20 million episodes.
Didn't you raise the standard, then, it's okay for me to raise the price, so, just like that, the two sides seemed to be holding their breath and betting with each other on whether you dare, and finally reached a consensus.
Then, after kBs's legal department worked out a specific contract, and after the so-called "legal representative" of Imperial Entertainment was confirmed, it was all right, and now, after the others signed it, only Lee Chung-hee needed to sign it, and the matter was settled.
"Why, do you regret it......," Seeing that Lee Chung-hee looked at the contract for a while without writing, Park Dongzan next to him joked with a smile.
No better than Song Yongzhen, he is happy to see a good outcome in this matter, and the sooner the better!
"Minister Park, if you say it again, I'm really going to scare me away!" For Park Dongzan, Lee Chung-hee is also happy to be close, so he also responded with a smile. As for the contract, he is even more satisfied, although he does not remember the average ratings of "Blue Life and Death Love" very clearly, but it is the Korean drama ratings champion this year, with the highest ratings of more than 50 points, so the average of 30% can be said to be a proper drop.
Also, although in South Korea, the income from TV rebroadcasts, dVd, Vcd, etc. has nothing to do with his half a dime, but Zhang Dongguo has won 5% of the overseas copyright income. This was obtained under the premise that Song Yongzhen and they were not optimistic, but this is a good deal in the future.
Of course, if it is calculated according to the fact that Lee Chung-hee used 1o achievement points to get this screenwriter position, he still loses, because 1o achievement points are equivalent to one billion won. And now, even if the ratings reach 30% or even higher, if you remove taxes, brokers' shares, etc., the final end up in his hands is only about one-third of one billion.
However, the screenwriting position of "Blue Life and Death Love" is not simply calculated by salary.
Therefore, Lee Chung-hee did not hesitate to sign his name on the contract, and at the same time as he finished signing, a ding dong suddenly popped up in his mind, and a prompt box popped up.
It was the tooltip for the Demon Entertainment, and now it was one with his head.
"Hello distinguished players, congratulations on completing the novice mission, you will be rewarded with 2 achievement points, as well as the position of screenwriter of the excellent film "Curse" ......."
It's great, Lee Chung-hee, who got the news, was secretly happy in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face. This time, he got back 2 achievement points, and there is also a screenwriter position for a movie, although he is not familiar with the movie "Curse" at all, but since it is an excellent work, it seems that it is expected to return to the cost.
Ding Dong, the secret joy in my heart has not subsided, and a prompt box suddenly popped up in my mind, "Distinguished player, hello, because you have obtained the position of screenwriter of "Blue Life and Death Love", which has changed the complete attributes of the original work, therefore, the future exhibition of this work is unpredictable, please continue to work hard to ......." ”
What does it mean, it's just that the screenwriter has changed, and the script hasn't changed, so why has it become unpredictable, which is too tricky. This is a clearly marked price, and it cost him more than half of his net worth to buy something, how can he still play it in the end, if Alice is here, Lee Chung-hee will definitely scold her for being bloody.
It's really crazy, Lee Chung-hee's original smiling face is even more unpredictable, if this unpredictable meaning is as he imagined, including ratings and influence, it will not show according to the original trajectory, then he will be really miserable.
"Jeong-hee, Jeong-hee!" At this time, Zhang Dongguo suddenly patted him on the shoulder, and when he came back to his senses, he saw that everyone else in the conference room was looking at him, knowing that he might have missed something when he was stunned just now.
I thought to myself, "Okay, I knew this game wouldn't be that easy," first throwing that one aside, and then reluctantly smiling and saying to the rest of the conference room, "It's really rude, because it's the first time, it's too much of a surprise, and the mood is a little complicated, I'm really sorry for ......." ”
He actually didn't miss anything, after signing the contract, everyone was jubilant, but he was stunned, looking a little out of place.
Park Dongzan was really unusual to him, and took the lead in smiling and said: "What's so rude about this, the first time you get some kind of achievement, there will always be a short-term sense of unreality!" ”
"Minister Park still understands my heart!" Lee Chung-hee also laughed, and took the opportunity to jokingly answer, "Anyway, I have never been so excited when I got a scholarship in school!" ”
In the laughter of everyone, he paused for a moment, and then said to Park Dongzan very politely, "I have to thank Minister Park for his kindness, and in the future, please give me more advice!" ”
This is from the heart, and Park Dong-chan naturally responded politely.
After signing the contract, it was close to noon, and after a little greeting, Zhang Dongguo took the opportunity to invite Park Dongzan to have a meal, and Park Dongzan did not refuse. In South Korea, it is very normal for representatives of brokerage companies to invite representatives of production companies, TV stations, directors, advertisers, etc. to dinner.
Park Dongzan still has something to do, Lee Chung-hee and Jang Dong-guk went to the parking lot to wait for him first, neither of them actually had a car, this car is still rented, 100,000 won a day.
There's no way, I want to support the scene, today I was ready to invite Park Dong-chan to dinner after signing the contract, after all, he is the producer of "Blue Life and Death Love", and everyone will have a lot of time to deal with each other in the future.
But please eat, if you let the family know that they don't even have a car, then the "Imperial Entertainment" company will be a shame.
"It's good to solve the car matter as much as possible," Zhang Dongguo patted the roof of the car, frowned and thought about it, and said to Li Zhengxi, "You will have a lot of time to run around in the future, and you will never be able to do without a car!" ”
"I'm not a big star, I'm just a screenwriter!" Lee Chung-hee smiled and shook his head, "When I'm not filming, I'm fine at all, and when it's time for the TV series to shoot, I'll just rub Minister Park's car or the crew's car." ”
It's naturally good to have a car, but Zhang Dong is not rich in the country, and his family is okay, but he doesn't want to ask his family for money.
"The car thing, let's stay up for half a year for the time being, and when the time comes, after the broadcast of "Blue Life and Death Love", I will make a lot of money, and I will have everything!"
"Make a big profit!" Zhang Dongguo stared at him angrily, with helplessness in his tone, in the end, until now, he didn't dare to have too much hope for that contract, "You are so sure that the ratings can reach thirty, or average!" ”
If it was the moment he signed the contract, Lee Chung-hee would tell him a positive answer with great confidence, but at this time, with the uncertainty that jumped out of the game, he could only shrug his shoulders, and then pretended to be relaxed and said: "I'm a genius, brother!" ”
I remembered the matter of "Murderous Curse", so I took the opportunity to divert the topic, "By the way, brother, I also have a movie script for a film company to see, and in two days, we will probably sign a contract ......." ”
"What?" Zhang Dongguo was stunned, with an unbelievable expression on his face, and his mouth opened a little wider, "You said there is also a movie script?" ”
"That's right, I just wrote two notebooks and went out, who knows it's all fancied!" Li Zhengxi's face was unbeatable, but his tone was light, "So, brother, I'm really a genius!" ”
Zhang Dongguo couldn't help but roll his eyes and smiled, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
However, Li Zhengxi seemed to remember something, and suddenly looked at him seriously, and said: "By the way, brother, the matter of Imperial Entertainment Company, we have to complete the registration as much as possible!" ”
"Well, I see! I'll do it right away. Zhang Dongguo nodded seriously. If Imperial Entertainment was just a joke at first, but after it was decided that they wanted to sign a contract with kBs, it had become a must, and they didn't want to be exploited and controlled by any brokerage company.
The good news is that company registration is not complicated, it takes a short time, and the cost of registering a company is also very cheap, about 1 million won is enough.
