Chapter 376, the pit does not pay for the death
"Wang Fatzi, you can't say that, this is the first film you directed, and the film is a big hit, and you can't say it as a director without inviting guests!" Lei Weidong retorted.
"Then you, as an investor, should treat you more and give out red envelopes!" Wang Jing did not forgive.
"I'm going to give out red envelopes to guests, and the red envelopes are ready! But that seems to be a different thing than your treat! This meal should be your please. Lei Weidong shouted.
"Alright, stop making trouble! Zou Tycoon is here, I'll have a good time. Looking at the two people with big eyes and small eyes, Zhong Chuhong patted his forehead, and he was very emotional.
How old are you, and you are still as vindictive as a child, isn't it just an afternoon tea, and you don't have a lot of money to argue for so long!
"Okay, this time Ah Hong is invited!" Looking up and seeing that Zou Daheng, He Guanchang and Cheng Long had already walked over, Lei Weidong whispered:
"Fatty, you owe me a meal, and when the red envelope is sent, you have to make up for it."
"Yes, Lei Shao, but if you are not satisfied with the red envelope, I won't invite you, at most please Sister Hong!" Wang Jing responded.
"When the time comes, see if I don't have to kill you with money! Fatso. Lei Weidong said aura.
"Lei Shao, my biggest wish in my life is to be smashed by money, and you have to smash more when the time comes!" Hearing that he was going to be smashed by money, Wang Jing was suddenly overjoyed!
"Lei Shao, I've kept you waiting!" Zou Daheng didn't arrive, and the voice had already come.
"It's a little late in the traffic jam on the road, don't mind."
"Where, Uncle Huai can come if he gives face! You may be seated. Lei Weidong hasn't moved yet, and Wang Jing, the jack-of-all-trades, has already taken the initiative to greet him.
You can go straight to the topic.
"Lei Shao, I invited you over this time, mainly because of Aaron's contract!" Zou Daheng said as he lit the cigar in his hand.
"Is there anything wrong with Brother Long's contract!" Lei Weidong looked at Cheng Long and said with a smile: "It seems that Brother Long didn't lose any money in the contract!" ”
"It's not a debt to owe!" Zou Daheng nodded and said:
"It's just that Cheng Long is busy now, and we hope that Cheng Long can make reasonable use of his time."
Regarding the contract signed by Lei Weidong and Cheng Long, Zou Daheng was very surprised when he got it.
In addition to the sky-high liquidated damages and the stipulation that Cheng Long must shoot ten movies for Lei Weidong within five years, there are no other hard requirements!
Even the biggest salary in dispute is also indicated that it can change according to market conditions.
This is the contract signed by Cheng Long before he became famous, if it is according to the unspoken rules of the current entertainment industry, it is a personality that will not stop if the interests of actors are not squeezed into the bones.
How could Lei Weidong give Cheng Long such lenient conditions, even if it was because Cheng Long's deed of sale was in Luo Wei's hands at that time, but the remuneration could be stipulated in advance in the contract.
In black and white, even if Cheng Long wants to, he can't rely on it.
However, the contract has no impact on Cheng Long, but it has a great impact on Jiahe!
One of the biggest characteristics of Cheng Long's filmmaking is that he likes to keep improving! A lot of shots need to be shot many times until you are satisfied at the end!
This results in a movie taking a long time to shoot!
It can be said that two movies a year basically occupy almost Cheng Long's time.
The reason why Jiahe spent 8 million Hong Kong dollars to poach Cheng Long was to ask him to make a profit for Jiahe to make a movie!
If you dig it up, you have to shoot Lei Weidong all day long, even if Zou Daheng doesn't say it himself, those shareholders on the board of directors will also put forward their opinions.
There was no way, Zou Wenhuai had to discuss with Lei Weidong to see if he could reasonably plan Cheng Long's time and let him help Jiahe make a film first.
Sure enough, Zou Wenhuai just mentioned it, and Zhong Chuhong was not happy.
Why, now is the most popular time for Cheng Long, making a lot of money in the film department, this is the time to maximize the residual value of the actors, who knows if Cheng Long will be so popular in a few years.
After all, the situation of celebrities in the entertainment industry is changing too quickly.
Don't say that your stance is different, your thinking is different.
Now Honggu's idea is completely different from the idea of being a star in parallel time and space, everything is based on the idea of a black-hearted capitalist.
"Lei Shao, as long as you can agree to extend the time, Jiahe Company will try its best to make up for your losses."
He Guanchang saw that Zhong Chuhong raised objections, and Lei Weidong did not say anything, feeling that things were going to be yellow, so he hurriedly added.
"Mr. Zou, do you have any other requirements, let's put them forward together, it will be troublesome in a while!" Lei Weidong said with an expression on his face, making people unable to see what he was thinking.
"It's very simple, we hope that Lei Shao can let out the script of "Young Master Long"." Zou Daheng said what he wanted.
A blockbuster movie! Actors are important, but I have to admit that the script is also a very important factor!
Now Zou Daheng is eager to make Cheng Long successful in order to show the value of 8 million flowers, and after several tests, the script "Young Master Long" by the famous Hong Kong talent Lei Weidong is naturally the best choice!
It's just that if you want Lei Weidong to give up the script, the price will never be less!
"Lei Shao, as long as you can let the script out, you can ask for it as much as possible!" Seeing that Zhong Chuhong was about to speak, He Guanchang hurriedly added.
"Can I just ask?" Lei Weidong stretched out his hand to stop Zhong Chuhong's words and said, "You can really ask for anything!" ”
"Of course, as long as it is a reasonable request, we can agree to it!"
Zou Daheng was also afraid that Lei Weidong would make any particularly excessive requests, such as asking for Jiahe's shares, so he hurriedly blocked the words.
"Of course the requirements are reasonable, Mr. Zou, with Cheng Long's fame, "Young Master Long" can bring at least tens of millions of income! Not sure how much money you can give me! Lei Weidong asked.
"Money!" What Zou Daheng is most afraid of is that Lei Weidong talks to him about money!
If it is a little star like Cheng Long, Zou Tycoon doesn't have to worry, just use money to knock the other party down!
And for Lei Weidong, who is worth far more than himself, the trick of throwing money will not work, Lei Weidong has mentioned tens of millions just now, can you still offer tens of millions!
At least more than 100 million!
In Jiahe's case, 8 million digging Cheng Longdu has made shareholders surge!
If you offer hundreds of millions of dollars to buy "Young Master Long", it is estimated that the shareholders will rebel soon!
"Lei Shao! How cheesy it is to talk about money, you also know a little about Jiahe's situation! Now that funds are tight, can you open something else! Seeing that Zou Daheng bowed his head and was silent, He Guanchang knew that Zou Daheng didn't want to pay for it, so he opened his mouth and hoped that Lei Weidong could put forward some other conditions!
"Other conditions! What conditions can be worth tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars! Lei Weidong almost burst out laughing!
But looking at Zou Daheng's appearance, he knew that the other party was a scoundrel!
looks like he doesn't ask for money, and he doesn't give his life
"In that case!" Lei Weidong lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "If "Young Master Long" is given to you, then Cheng Long still needs to complete the contract for seven films, and I will not give Brother Long's salary for these seven movies, and you will subsidize Brother Long's losses!" ”
"Yes!" Zou Daheng and He Guanchang glanced at each other and nodded in agreement!
"However, Lei Shao, Cheng Long's schedule is relatively tight! It's not realistic to complete seven films in three or four years! He Guanchang said.
"How long will that take!"
"Twenty years!" He Guanchang said.
"Twenty years! You're sure you're not kidding! Lei Weidong smiled: "Play with me!" I'll only give you seven years, one movie a year! ”
"No! Lei Shao, seven years is too short, it will take at least eighteen years! He Guanchang shook his head and said that he couldn't accept seven years!
Next! After some bargaining, Lei Weidong and He Guanchang finally reached an agreement!
Cheng Long wanted to shoot seven movies for Lei Weidong in 1980, 1983, 1985, 1987, 1989, 1991, and 1993 at a price of $1! All the film copyrights belong to Lei Weidong!
When the movie needs to be filmed, Cheng Long must be on call! Of course, in order to avoid schedule conflicts, Lei Weidong needs to notify Cheng Long three months in advance, so that Cheng Long can adjust the schedule!
During the shooting! Cheng Long's personal losses are made up by Jiahe!
If Cheng Long can't shoot at that time, or Jiahe doesn't let go, then for every less movie filmed, Cheng Long and Jiahe need to compensate Lei Weidong for 300 million Hong Kong dollars in liquidated damages!
"Lei Shao! Isn't this liquidated damages too high? Hearing this number, Zou Daheng and He Guanchang haven't said anything yet! Cheng Long was already jumping in fright!
300 million Hong Kong dollars, I can't afford to lose it if I sell it, Jiahe threw the 8 million check in front of him, and he couldn't find the north!
Now that Lei Weidong is good, he actually offered 300 million liquidated damages for a movie!
How much is this!
The salary of one of my movies is only a few million, how many movies do I need to make to earn 300 million!
Cheng Long didn't count it for a long time, so he could only say that Lei Shao was too rich! Speechless!
"That's it! Lei Shao's liquidated damages are too high, which is unreasonable! He Guanchang said.
I can't see through Lei Weidong and He Guanchang, you must know that from 77 years to the present, Lei Weidong's investment has never failed!
Now that Cheng Long has been given such a high liquidated damages, does it mean that he has a higher profit.
"The liquidated damages are not high!" Lei Weidong said with a smile: "Originally, Cheng Long's liquidated damages cost 100 million, but now it is only a few times more strange!" ”
"That's Aaron was ignorant at the time! ..... now!" He Guanchang called!
"That's it! Ah Chang! Say no more! The high point of liquidated damages is the high point! As long as we follow the contract, don't worry! Zou Daheng stretched out his hand to appease He Guanchang and agreed to Lei Weidong's request.
"A tycoon is a tycoon! Do things cleanly! Lei Weidong clapped his hands and praised.
"Let's talk about the overseas distribution of "Young Master Dragon"!"
"What! Didn't you just say that "Young Master Long" was handed over to Jiahe, why did Lei Shao regret it! He Guanchang said angrily.
"Just the first condition! It's because you're too inkblot to talk for so long! Lei Weidong said:
"I'm not greedy, give me the distribution rights in Japan, Wanwan and North America! The distribution rights in other regions are yours! ”
"No! Japan is the most important ticket warehouse for our Jiahe! Japanese distribution can't be handed over to you! He Guanchang protested.
"The Japanese market has also opened up to the company!" Zhong Chuhong protested: "Southeast Asia is handed over to you, why are you not satisfied!" ”
It was another round of negotiations, and in the end, the two sides agreed that the Japanese market would be divided equally!
Europe and Southeast Asia belong to Jiahe, and the United States and the bend region belong to Lei Weidong!
"Lei Shao, sign the contract tomorrow!" Zou Daheng sighed.
"Yes! I'll let Zhang Aijia go over tomorrow to sign the contract! "I heard that Zou Daheng agreed to his request!
Lei Weidong was so happy in his heart that he killed Zou Daheng this time.
