Chapter 331: Signing Martin (Asking for Subscription)
Taking advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do for the time being, Shen Yan first read the script in advance, so he had a bottom in his heart.
Even if there are inappropriate lines in it, you can communicate with the screenwriter in advance and make changes, so that you don't have to wait for the start of filming later, which will affect the filming progress. He has never been an actor in filming, but at least he has been in the crew for a while and knows the filming process. But even so, the first filming made him feel a little nervous and excited, which was inevitable.
At present, the crew is still in preparation, the list of actors has just been completed, the funds have not yet arrived, and there are still some vacancies in other crew members.
Yu Xuelei had to run around for the next period of time for the crew.
So...... Shen Yan still has a long time to familiarize himself with this script.
No one bothered him at home alone, and unconsciously Shen Yan read the script alone for a few hours, and the whole person was immersed in the story of the script, and it wasn't until his stomach was hungry that he reacted, it turned out that it was so late, it was past eight o'clock in the evening.
After reading the script of the second season, Shen Yan found that the quality of the script has not decreased, but has made great progress compared to the first season, it is better written than the first season, the characters are distinct, the story is flesh and blood, and several of the plots are written very interestingly, and the reversal is extremely ingenious, which is amazing, and he was unconsciously stunned. In addition to these, the contradictions and conflicts in the story are also set at a high level, creating suspense little by little.
Isn't the script for the second season a replacement was written?
Shen Yan muttered in his heart.
But the most important thing at the moment is to fill his stomach first, after watching it for so long, his stomach has long been rumbling with hunger, and he has to find something to fill his stomach.
I don't have anything to eat in my house except instant noodles, so I plan to go to the restaurant downstairs in the community to eat casually.
Just go downstairs in the community to eat, so you don't need to wear any masks to disguise.
The people in the community met several times, and everyone slowly got used to his presence. Even...... Some people feel quite proud, after all, they live in a community with celebrities.
Moreover, the people in their community are relatively high-quality, and the property management is good, so Shen Yan has nothing to worry about.
When I went downstairs to eat, I met a few familiar faces, and everyone said hello and smiled.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Shen Yan received a message from Martin that the other party had arrived in Zhonghai and checked into the hotel.
After knowing that the other party had arrived safely, Shen Yan was relieved, and the two once again determined the meeting time for tomorrow, and went their separate ways.
Nothing happened all night and went to bed early.
……
"Mr. Martin, let's meet again."
"As soon as I said goodbye last time, I had a special premonition that I would definitely see Mr. Shen Yan again in the future, but I didn't expect it to come true this time."
The two shook hands and smiled and said polite words.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, but Mr. Martin still has the same demeanor."
"Mr. Shen Yan praised it falsely, but sir, you look chic and uninhibited, and your temperament is extraordinary."
After all, the two of them will work together for a long time to come.
"You may be seated."
Before getting into the topic, the two chatted about other things for a while, chatted about polite words, and brewed emotions by the way.
Next, let's get down to business.
Contracted brokers.
Martin belongs to Da Zhou Entertainment, if Shen Yan wants to sign a contract with Martin, it means that he will also sign a contract with Da Zhou Entertainment. Before signing the contract, Shen Yan also learned about Da Zhou Entertainment and consulted some friends in the industry, in general, Da Zhou Entertainment's reputation in the circle is not bad, Martin is also well-known in the circle of agents, he has trained many artists, and later became famous.
It's just that later, because of some things, the other party faded out for a while, and the kind of half-hidden and half-retired ones let out the artists he had handled before, and missed the time when those artists were on fire, if he didn't let it, the current Martin would definitely be a well-known gold medal agent.
Fortunately, Martin is also a person who does not admit defeat and intends to start again.
And that's exactly what ...... let him run into Shen Yan.
From the first moment he met Shen Yan, he felt that this person had unlimited potential and had the potential to become a superstar. He felt that his eyes were very accurate and could not be mistaken. If the other party goes through his professional packaging and operation, the road in the future will definitely be smoother and smoother.
Shen Yan and Martin chatted for a long time, and the two sides talked for a long time about the mode of signing the contract.
According to Martin's idea, he wanted to sign a full contract with Shen Yan. What is called a full contract, that is, all the affairs of the artist's performance within a certain period of time are contracted to the company, including but not limited to film and television dramas and advertisements, the actor and the company negotiate the terms, and stipulate in the contract what the company should do for the artist during the contract period? For example, the term of the full contract is 3 years, so how many opportunities for the artist to play the No. 1 role should the company promise to give the artist within three years, and how many advertisements will be filmed? What is the proportion of the artist's remuneration and the company, etc.
This is equivalent to signing a deed of sale, and during the time in the contract, Shen Yan can only obey the other party's arrangement.
If Shen Yan is just a fledgling artist who has not yet made any name, then it must be best for him to sign this contract, so that the entertainment company or Martin will definitely do their best to cultivate him. The more powerful the entertainment company, the more beneficial such a contract is, but the disadvantages are also obvious, it is difficult to get out after signing the contract, otherwise why is it called a deed of sale.
But now Shen Yan ...... is already a third-tier star. This contract is not very suitable for him. Besides, with his character, he is definitely not a person who is willing to listen to all the arrangements of others, he has his own subjective ideas.
So Shen Yan wanted to sign an agency contract with the other party.
What is the agency contract, that is, Martin can be fully responsible for acting as an agent, and the two parties will negotiate the proportion of the share in advance, as for whether it can be passed in the end, Shen Yan himself needs to make the decision.
The advantage is that if the two parties are unhappy in the process of cooperation, they can also terminate the contract at any time.
Or is it...... There is also a type of contract called a partial contract.
That is, the artist only contracts a certain type of rights to the company, but controls the others, for example, he only contracts the rights of film and television drama roles to the company, but he controls the performance opportunities such as shooting advertisements and other acupuncture points.
This kind of contract, Shen Yan is also acceptable.
Shen Yan and Martin, both of them definitely want to maintain their maximum benefits on the basis of cooperation. Unless there is really no way, they will make corresponding concessions.
Full appointment, Shen Yan definitely did not agree.
Agency contract, Martin doesn't really want to agree, this kind of agency contract is generally only available when a weaker company cooperates with artists. Martin naturally doesn't feel that he and his Big Zhou entertainment are very bad, so it's hard to agree to this.
At last......
Both made concessions and naturally opted for part of the contract.
In addition, the terms of some contracts were also discussed.
For example, the other party can be solely responsible for what is responsible, and what can be decided by themselves.
Each of the detailed rules is clearly discussed, so that subsequent problems can be avoided.
While talking about these, Shen Yan also admired Martin's professionalism and serious attitude.
The content of the contract is naturally as follows: Party B (Shen Yan) hires Party A (Martin) as the agent, and Party A has full authority to act as the agent for Party B during the contract period, involving publishing, performance, radio, television, advertising, film, ...... and other commercial and non-commercial activities related to performing arts, as well as activities related to Party B's public image. Party B shall pay Party A's brokerage fee for this purpose.
This is the main content of the cooperation.
The tentative term of cooperation between the two parties is one year. If, after one year, both parties are satisfied with each other, the contract will be automatically renewed.
The following clause is a detailed explanation of this content.
The two sides talked for a long time, because there were a lot of things involved, and the interests involved were also very large, and they had to be more careful, so as not to have a situation where they were unclear later. In this world, there are countless examples of artists being cheated by brokerage companies, as well as the weak case that caused a sensation in the whole country some time ago.
Although Shen Yan thinks Martin is good, but the public is public, the private is private, and the public and private can cooperate better.
More than three hours passed imperceptibly.
The two sides have finally negotiated everything, and it is really not ordinary tired.
Martin finished the electronic version of all the documents, and the next thing was to print out the contents, sign and seal them, and the contract was almost valid. It also means that as long as the contract is completed, Martin will become Shen Yan's agent, and the subsequent series of things will be handled by Martin, and there is no need for Shen Yan to deal with those troublesome things by himself.
Shen Yan felt a lot better, and he didn't have to worry about these things every day.
"Mr. Shen Yan, we will be partners in the future."
"Mr. Martin, don't keep calling me Mr. Shen Yan, I'm younger than you, just call me Xiao Yan."
"Okay, then don't call me Mr. Martin, I'm older than you, you can call me Brother Ma."
"Brother Ma, it's not too early, why don't we go have a meal first?"
"Okay."
……
The two sides found a place to have lunch, and Shen Yan, as the host, naturally feasted Martin, firstly to celebrate the cooperation between the two sides, and secondly, to wash the dust for each other by the way.
After lunch, the two sides said goodbye for a while.
Martin also needs to find a house in Zhonghai and stay there.
After all, Shen Yan spends most of his time in Zhonghai, and as his agent, he must be in Zhonghai often. Unless there are other activities, they will run around with each other.
