Chapter 504 The idea of not being able to pay a salary, and investing in a movie with a salary

What is a big decision? What is generosity?

There is no doubt that the decision made by Lin Xiaoming and the board of directors of Huanyu is a truly important decision, and it is also a very generous and important decision.

"I lost his mother, is it really fake? actually gave him 20 million Hong Kong dollars as compensation for his salary? ”

A Hong Kong spectacle reporter was dumbfounded, and quickly snapped his fingers and calculated: "If this Nima is converted, it is equivalent to giving him a salary of 3 million US dollars!" Although this is indeed much lower than his current asking price of 20 million US dollars, if you compare it horizontally, his salary also surpasses Andy and Wei Zai in a real sense, only after Brother Long, Brother Jie and Brother Fa! ”

"I'm rubbing, not kidding, right? actually took a reward of 20 million to Brother Chic? This number is especially bigger than winning the fucai! ”

A reporter from the mainland shook his head in disbelief, as if he felt that he was dreaming, although it stands to reason that Huanyu made hundreds of millions of dollars this time, and it is actually normal to take out tens of millions of them and distribute them to the creators as red envelopes, but who called Brother Chic to share 20 million alone?

Moreover, Lin Xiaoming is also talking about salary compensation, which is not a symbol of red envelopes!

"Oh my God, it's really a superstar! For this money alone, none of our actors in the Republic of Korea has ever received it. ”

A female reporter from South Korea was incredulous, and her small eyes were about to pop out.

20 million Hong Kong dollars, that is about 3 billion won, and Zhang Dongjian, the highest-paid film in the Korean film industry, has the highest salary for a movie "Night Banquet". It's only 1 billion won, about 6 or 7 million yuan. This means that one Tang Chic will have to top several Zhang Dongjian. Moreover, this is only his previous salary, and now it is impossible to compare.

……

In the face of the generosity of the world, not only the reporters present felt unbelievable, but even the big names and big names in Hong Kong who came to watch the ceremony today. Their eyes were also red, and they all showed shocked expressions.

"Boss Lin has done a beautiful job! He showed it so generously, if Huanyu got a suitable book again in the future, presumably Tang Xiaosheng would definitely not refuse to cooperate with them again, and the friendship was maintained! ”

"Yes, Tang Xiaosheng's development momentum is really too strong, a Chinese film can sell 200 million US dollars worldwide, which is even more fierce than Brother Long back then! The first part of "Rush Hour" only sold $240 million at the global box office. But the investment amount is much larger, and it is still produced by Hollywood, so in this way, his charm is obviously far greater than that of Brother Long! ”

"I always thought that this day would definitely come, but I didn't expect it to come so quickly, in just a few years, the appeal of our Hong Kong stars began to be inferior to mainland stars! The position of the first salary will also be taken away by mainland counterparts. ”

"Let's look at the point! Brother Long only knows how to shoot scenes, but people are blowing, playing, singing, and acting. Everything is good, no one can compare with such a person, we just need to do our job as an actor. That's Amitabha! ”

……

Dozens of big-name peers were sighing or sighing, but someone sitting on the rostrum was even more open than them, just stunned for a moment, and then showed a bright smile and hugged Lin Xiaoming: "Then thank you Boss Lin!" I also hope that we have the next chance to work together! ”

Lin Xiaoming laughed. nodded again and again and said: "There must be a chance, if Tang Sheng is also optimistic about the script at that time, you can also exchange the salary for investment, let's play big together, otherwise your new value can not be afforded by a small company like Huanyu!" ”

Do you want to convert your salary into an investment?

This proposal really made someone groan, because his original intention was to get a salary + dividends, which was the easiest not to say, and it didn't delay time, you can leave after filming, at most you can do publicity before the release, which can be described as worry-free and trouble-free, and there are no worries at all.

However, what Lin Xiaoming said also has some truth, after all, the salary he asked for is indeed too high, if the producer has to give him 20 million US dollars before the start of filming, it is equivalent to adding a great burden to the film itself, and it doesn't matter if the Hollywood company with deep pockets does not matter, but in China, except for a few large companies, I am afraid that no one can really afford him.

Then, if he is willing to convert the salary into an investment, which is equivalent to investing in the film, the producer can save a lot of money, not to mention, his dividends (the premise of a big sale) will definitely be higher than the fixed salary.

You must know that the usual investment in domestic blockbusters is only tens of millions of US dollars, if he exchanges his salary of 20 million US dollars for investment, it is equivalent to accounting for 1/3~1/4 of all the investment in the movie, then his dividend will definitely be increased to 1/3~2/5, in case it is a big sale, such as this "The True Colors of Men", it is equivalent to him making hundreds of millions!

Damn, it seems that this is indeed promising!

At such an instant, a strong impulse arose in someone's heart, and he almost blurted out the three words "I do".

However, he just opened his mouth, but he resisted that impulse, took a breath and said: "The so-called investment is risky, and you need to be cautious when entering the market, although converting the salary into investment to join the crew, this can indeed solve the problem of my high salary, but at the same time, I will also have the risk of huge losses, does Boss Lin think it's right?" ”

Lin Xiaoming nodded and smiled: "This is indeed a fact, after all, no one can guarantee 100% to make money!" ”

Brother Chic scratched his eyebrows, smiled a little curiously, and said, "Why doesn't Boss Lin say something good to persuade me?" If you say that, I probably won't dare to do it! ”

"Hahaha, I've never treated you as a visionless person!"

Lin Xiaoming laughed and said: "If you can be deceived by saying something nice, then I think you will definitely not come to this point now!" ”

Brother Chic smiled and said nothing, Lin Xiaoming said again: "Besides, cooperation is based on the willingness of both parties, if I trick you in, but the result is very bad, I think we will never have a chance to cooperate in the future, this is obviously not what I want!" ”

"Hehe, we'll talk about this later! Anyway, I don't have time this year. ”

Although Lin Xiaoming said very sincerely, Brother Xiao did not give an answer immediately, he glanced at the guests who gradually quieted down, Lin Xiaoming immediately nodded with a very good eye and said: "Okay, then let's make an appointment to talk about this matter in detail!" We've put the 20 million into your studio account. ”

After saying this, Lin Xiaoming walked off the rostrum with a smile, and for a while, there were only a few creators left on the stage, and Chen Musheng became the leader and speaker again.

"Thank you Mr. Lin and the board of directors for their generosity, such a huge amount of money will be distributed, I am sure all the crew colleagues will be excited!"

Chen Musheng first thanked the board of directors and Lin Xiaoming with a smile, and then he said with a straight face: "Because of time, we don't want to delay everyone's time too much, so now I officially announce that the press conference of this celebration has officially begun."

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

The applause thundered, and every reporter applauded excitedly, and some even applauded loudly, because only they knew that they had been waiting for such a moment for a long time.

"Lao Tzu has a lot of questions I want to ask! God forbid you must choose me! ”

A reporter with a small background was a little nervous, strongly hoping that Chen Musheng could name him, so that he could ask the questions he had already thought of.

In fact, why is this reporter so excited at this moment? Sitting on the rostrum and looking down, the hundreds of media below, the reporters No. 2 and 300, almost all of them are muttering something, and they don't have to guess to know that they must be praying that they can be selected, so that they will have the opportunity to ask the questions they want to know the most.

After all, there are so many media outlets at the scene, one of them delays for a while, and the one-hour press conference will end soon, and there are only 4 or 50 media outlets that can ask questions.
