The moon sets and the sun rises, and in the blink of an eye, two days have passed.

didn't let Lee Seung-woo wait for a long time, and Antai and the other side quickly contacted him.

But when he came to Atae-ho's office again and saw the contract drafted by S.M., Lee Seung-woo raised his eyes and glanced at Ahn-tae-ho, smiled to himself, and then put the contract on the table.

"Brother Taihe, this is the sincerity of your company?"

Lee Seung-woo really thinks it's funny.

The remuneration of 10 million won for an episode is converted into 60,000 Chinese dollars, and in addition, the dividends are not mentioned, and the sincerity of S.M company is indeed sincere enough.

If you want to say that the remuneration for an episode of 10 million won is not low?

To tell the truth, it's really not low for a rookie screenwriter.

In South Korea, the TV Drama Industry Association has graded screenwriters into super, A, and B grades from top to bottom. Generally, special A-level screenwriters such as Kim so-hyun and Choi Maung-kyu can get about 20 million won for each episode of the TV series. The screenwriter who has just entered the industry can only get 2.5 million to 4 million won (about 15,000-24,000 yuan) for each episode of the TV series.

In addition to the remuneration, screenwriters can also receive part of the dividends, so the income that Korean screenwriters get in their hands is actually a set of market algorithms.

For example, after a TV station with copyright broadcasts a screenwriter's work, it can provide it to other TV stations or reproduce and distribute it, but the screenwriter must be notified in writing in advance; The replay fee is 30% of the script fee; The replay royalty after the replay is 15% of the script fee; In addition, when it is provided to a foreign TV station or cable TV station, 3.5% of the copyright amount shall be paid to the screenwriter; If a third party is allowed to reproduce and distribute the program in China, 5.5% of the copyright amount will be paid to the screenwriter.

But the contract drafted by S.M. is interesting.

The remuneration of 10 million won for an episode is indeed very high compared to the 2.5 million to 4 million won of the rookie screenwriter.

But then what...... Nope.

Who the hell is this fooling? What a fool to play him on!

Lee Seung-woo wondered if the so-called high-level executives of S.M Company were stuffed with in their heads, and he really thought that everyone else was a dog, and when he saw, he felt fragrant, and jumped up to them one by one to kneel and lick them?

A bunch of brain-dead!

Let's not mention that he is already a well-known director, and there is a movie with a box office of more than 2 million viewers, even if there is no such premise, does S.M think he will give up dividends?

In the previous cooperation with S.M, the lion asked for a 12% agency fee, and Lee Seung-woo was actually a little unhappy in his heart.

But it can't be helped.

Who made him just a penniless rookie director at that time, with no connections or channels, and he had to compromise at the beginning stage.

But now that S.M is still playing him as a fool, Lee Seung-woo thinks it's really funny.

Looking at An Taihe, Li Chengyou smiled and said, "Brother Taihe, I want to know, what do you think of this contract?" ”

To be honest, Lee Seung-woo still admires An Tae-ho for being in contact with An Tae-ho for so long, he is very good at dealing with people and things, and he is also very organized. But if Ahn Tae-ho also feels normal with this contract, then Lee Seung-woo will have to consider whether it is necessary to maintain a relationship with this person.

When you encounter a fool who treats others as fools, it is best to stay away quickly so as not to cause a fuss.

Ahn Tae-ho looked at Lee Seung-woo and couldn't help but shake his head and smile wryly.

Let's be honest.

When he saw the contract that was drafted after the senior management finally agreed, Antai wanted to scold these people for being idiots.

It is undeniable that Lee Seung-woo is indeed a newcomer, and he has not even joined the Screenwriters Guild at present, and is not counted as a full member of the Screenwriters Guild.

But for a director who has already had 2 million moviegoers at the box office, even those high-level executives think that Lee Seung-woo is just a fluke, but even if it is a fluke, can you really treat such a director as a rookie screenwriter?

If the news gets out — if the deal doesn't end up with Lee Seung-woo — that's pretty much for sure.

If other directors and screenwriters know that S.M treats 'famous' directors like this, although there are many screenwriters and directors in the current circle who think that Lee Seung-woo's success is just a fluke, other screenwriters and directors can despise Lee Seung-woo because his peers are light, which is normal. But other writers and directors can be despised, but it is not the turn of S.M to have this sense of superiority.

Although South Korea has a weak national strength and a small geographical area, it is precisely for this reason that Korean filmmakers have always been very united.

For example, the bald head movement that took place in 1999.

In order to protest South Korea's accession to the WTO and the opening of foreign film quotas, South Korean filmmakers were furious, and almost all filmmakers mobilized, and many male filmmakers even shaved their heads in protest at the Seoul State Hall, Gwanghwamun Gate and other places. Because shaving the head is a very strong form of protest in South Korea, and this event is attended by all Korean filmmakers, it has attracted great attention from world public opinion, which has caused great pressure on the South Korean government, so it has decided to continue the policy of requiring every screening room in every Korean movie theater to screen domestic films for 146 days a year.

After the success of the skinhead movement, the morale of Korean directors was greatly boosted, and it became an opportunity for the development of Korean films.

To put it bluntly, it is possible to be inferior to the internal counterparts in the industry, but if the outsiders also have this sense of superiority, then it is very likely that there will not be many well-known screenwriters and directors who are willing to cooperate with S.M in the future.

Even if none of these are mentioned, only Lee Seung-woo himself is involved.

Ahn Tae-woo was in the closest contact with Lee Seung-woo, and he also felt Lee Seung-woo's talent and potential more deeply.

It's hard to have a good relationship with such a talented and promising young director, and with a good friendship, it's too late to work hard to maintain and expand your network, and you really think that Lee Seung-woo is as disdainful as those screenwriters and directors despise, and even thinks that Lee Seung-woo's success is just a fluke?

Do Antai and others think that those high-level executives grew up eating?

A director who is only twenty-two years old and twenty-three years old, such a young director, even just a student, has not graduated, and a person who has not relied on the help of outsiders to independently pull in investment to complete the movie, can he still be regarded as a fluke?

But he argued for these reasons, but no one cared about them at all, and he only felt that he thought too highly of Lee Seung-woo.

Antai and he had the urge to resign at that time, and he really didn't want to see these brains again.

Fortunately, after his repeated arguments, it is not without any results, and not every one of those high-level leaders is extremely stupid.

The draft contract given to Lee Seung-woo this time can be regarded as a temptation, if Lee Seung-woo has no objection, of course it is better, and if Lee Seung-woo has objections, there is still room for negotiation.

With a wry smile and looking at Li Chengyou, An Taihe sighed and said, "Chengyou, in front of you, Brother Taihe...... I don't hide it anymore. If you have any knowledge, you should also know what the film and television department of S.M is like. Don't look at Taihe Gegui as the manager of a department, it seems that he is fully responsible for the entire department, but in fact, the film and television department does not have much say within the company.

That's why I'm so keen to work with you.

I believe in my own vision that you are indeed a genius, and I am sure that working with you will definitely improve the status of our film and television department. Just ......"

Shaking his head, An Taihe smiled bitterly again: "Forget it." None of that is to be said. This contract is just a draft, not a final one, although I know it's a bit ridiculous...... Forget it, don't mention this, thank you for your conditions.

If it's reasonable, Taihege will try his best to help you get it.

Brother Taihe hopes that you can believe that I sincerely want to cooperate with you. ”
