Chapter 0586 - Risk Compensation
"Concert? I didn't say I was going to have a concert! "Han Lan is still in the Lighthouse Country at this time, and she was stunned when she received the news from China.
"And even if I really want to hold a concert, I must open it in China, and I don't have many fans overseas, won't I be embarrassed to death if no one buys tickets at that time? What's there to worry about? ”
"Han Shuai, but to be honest, do you want to consider holding a concert? It's been a long time since you debuted. Fang Qiaorui persuaded.
"Concert, ah......" Han Lan muttered.
In fact, when he first woke up, when he sang for Xia Ningxuan's concert, he thought about when he would also open the concert to play. But later, because the focus was on the movie, it was shelved.
Moreover, Tomahawk Entertainment is now in the early stages of development and also needs money. Compared with concerts, movies are definitely more profitable, and they can also drive more artists in the company to grow up and make more money.
For singers, selling albums, participating in commercial performances, and advertising endorsements are all ways to make money quickly, and concerts are more about interacting with fans, increasing stickiness, and reflecting their influence and appeal.
Of course, if the concert is large enough and the number of people is large enough, it can also attract money. But the effect of singing with newcomers in concerts is definitely not as good as in movies, and it is impossible to have all newcomers in a concert, and there are not many shots of newcomers.
"Sister Yi said that she hopes to help you plan a world tour in the first half of next year, and you can afford a world tour with your current popularity. And, if you count the time, it's the 10th anniversary of your debut. ”
"The 10th anniversary of debut?"
Han Lan was stunned for a moment, and quickly realized that they had also counted the time before their car accident.
If you deduct the five years of the car accident, and most of the half a year after waking up, it will be almost the tenth anniversary of the debut.
"I've always considered myself a newcomer, but I didn't expect it to be so long since I debuted......," Han Lan sighed.
If it weren't for the car accident, his status in the Chinese music scene would definitely be higher than Xia Ningxuan.
After hesitating for a moment, Han Lan also nodded: "Let Sister Yi start planning, it just so happens that there will be a gap after the Spring Festival Gala, and the concert can be started." ”
"Okay." Fang Qiaorui wrote it down on the memo, then flipped through it again, and continued to report: "There is one more thing, Han Shuai, I was contacted by two lighthouse blockbusters just now, and I hope to invite you to participate. ”
"Oh?"
Fang Qiaorui flipped through the mailbox and reported: "The first one is "The Grandmaster", which is also filmed in Huaguo Kung Fu, directed by McJewell, the first-line director of the Lighthouse Country, with an investment of 70 million dollars, hoping to invite you to play the role of the male number one in the movie, and is currently willing to offer a salary of 1 million dollars, but there is a 5% box office share. ”
"Oh?" Han Lan couldn't help but sit up straight.
There are generally two forms of remuneration for actors in the Beacon Country Film Holy Land, the first is a fixed salary, which is also the way that most actors can choose, which is generally calculated on a weekly basis, and the crew estimates how many weeks the actors will cooperate with the shooting, and then how much remuneration the actors are paid every week, and the remuneration is calculated on a daily basis for the excess time. The top actors in the lighthouse country often say that the "20 million club", of which 20 million is a fixed salary.
The other is the risk remuneration, which is basically chosen for actors at the level of the "20 million club", who can choose a very low fixed salary or even no fixed salary during the filming of the movie, in exchange for the box office share after the movie is released. The sky-high salaries of many top actors in the lighthouse country are all made in this way, and the highest record is currently 120 million dollars.
However, there are many ways to pay for this kind of payment, such as box office sharing, which has a pre-box office account, that is, the total box office without deducting any costs and expenses is directly distributed to the actors according to the agreed proportion; There is also net profit sharing, which is to divide the account after deducting the completed cost. With the same sharing ratio, the gap between the two is large, especially the net profit, which has many roads, and various definitions are very complex, and it is easy to dig holes.
Therefore, even if it is a lighthouse country's own actors, they will choose the former with more risky salaries, or would rather take more fixed salaries than participate in box office sharing.
Of course, the movie "The Grandmaster" proposed a risky remuneration obviously not to deliberately trap Han Lan, but their own limited investment. If you follow the salary standard proposed by Han Lan when she came to the lighthouse country last time, the starring role basically didn't run away with 20 million dollars. In this way, the remaining 50 million dollars invested in them will not be able to make any good movies at all.
Han Lan hesitated slightly, and was not in a hurry to agree, and asked again, "What about another movie?" ”
"There is also "Carl Rescue", looking at the introduction, it should be a military action movie, directed by Andrews, and he is also a first-class director in the lighthouse country, who is currently investing 100 million knives and offering a salary of 10 million knives to invite you to play the role of the villain in the play."
"Villain? Interesting, I haven't played this yet. ”
"Han Shuai is interested?"
"No, I pushed it directly, I look so handsome, I look like a good person, you actually want me to play a villain?" Han Lan waved his hand and said that if he changed his face, he would change his face.
Fang Qiaorui silently watched him send a good person card to himself, then crossed out "Carl Rescue", and asked, "Han Shuai, do you want to think about "Grandmaster"?" ”
"Em......" Han Lan thought about it for a while, but still shook her head and said: "Forget it, a kung fu film directed by a foreign director doesn't taste right, and I'm afraid that they will play with me in terms of salary, so I will push it too." ”
"All pushed?" Fang Qiaorui was stunned.
Han Lan didn't care: "Well, it's all pushed." Anyway, we didn't come here to find a movie to shoot, so we pushed it if we couldn't watch it. And now that kung fu movies are top-notch to Tomahawk Entertainment, there is no need to surrender one's identity to the Beacon Country movie mecca. In the past, it was because they had good conditions and a world-class team, but now we have them, and we have more experience in kung fu movies than them, so it's really unnecessary. ”
Fang Qiaorui nodded, and crossed out the "Grandmaster": "Then Han Shuai, I'll go back to the room first if there's nothing to do, tomorrow morning at the nine o'clock plane, you can rest early." ”
"Hmm."
……
Han Lan and his entourage still didn't spend Christmas in the lighthouse country in the end, and after finishing their work here, they flew back to China the day before Christmas.
There are still Spring Festival Gala programs in China that he needs to be responsible for, and he doesn't have that idle time for Christmas.
However, Fan Wenqiang, who is also in N City, tasted it here with his family and had a "foreign year". In fact, there is nothing better, there are not as many things to eat as in China, but you can take photos and send them to the circle of friends to show off.
Of course, Fan Wenqiang didn't just come on vacation, he followed the crew of "Urban Boxing King 2" on a talk show here in the lighthouse country, and also offered Christmas wishes to people all over the world.
Fan Wenqiang's language talent is really strong, it's hard to imagine that more than a year ago, he was a small group actor who couldn't even recognize twenty-six letters, and now he can talk eloquently on the talk show of the Lighthouse Country. Although there are still accents, which are very non-standard, in fact, many people in the lighthouse country don't care too much about the accent problem, because most people have accents, and no one will speak a radio accent every day.
will pay attention to the non-standard English accent transcription, many of whom are Chinese. There have even been extreme cases where Chinese students ridiculed the lighthouse for teaching foreign accents that were not standard.
