51. Sign the star of the week
The media is also praising Mo Wen lavishly, saying that he is a genius director, and his future achievements are immeasurable.
For these, Mo Wen looked at it relatively indifferently, although he was still very happy in his heart, but he didn't show how ecstatic.
On this day, Mo Wen came to the Earth Studio again, because today, there were three people from the Earth Studio, and Mo Wen wanted to meet them in person.
The first one to come was Zhou Xingxing, since Mo Wenrang went to Gu Ling to dig up Zhou Xingxing, after more than half a month of pulling, the matter was finally resolved, and Gu Ling bought out Zhou Xingxing's contract in the original brokerage company at a price of 4 million.
Later, he negotiated with Zhou Xingxing, and finally used 6 million as a signing fee to let Zhou Xingxing sign a brokerage contract with Earth Studio.
The contract time is 10 years, and the liquidated damages are 10 billion.
It can be said that this is a high penalty that has never been seen before.
Originally, as an actor who is not at the level of entry, someone asked him Zhou Xingxing to make a movie, and he played the male lead, whether it was Zhou Xingxing himself or the agency behind him, he was very happy.
After the special Mo Wen's fame became bigger and bigger in the entertainment industry, Zhou Xingxing and the brokerage company behind him were even more excited.
As long as Mo Wen plays normally, the next movie can also reach such a box office and become a high-quality movie like Crazy Stone, then he Zhou Xingxing will definitely be able to increase his popularity a lot, and even become a third-rate actor.
At that time, whether it is Zhou Xingxing's own salary or the brokerage share that he can get from the promotion company behind him, it will increase a lot.
After all, for an actor who is not at the mainstream level, the highest salary for a movie is only 200,000, and for a third-rate actor, the salary starts at least 300,000, and if the ranking is higher, it is normal for the salary to double again.
According to the contract signed by Zhou Xingxing and the brokerage company behind him, the final salary they receive will also change from tens of thousands of yuan and hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands.
The gap is a bit bigger.
It's just that they haven't been happy for long, Gu Ling came to the door and said that he wanted to buy out Zhou Xingxing's brokerage contract, which made the dream of the brokerage company behind Zhou Xingxing wake up all of a sudden.
Because, Gu Ling threatened them that if they didn't transfer Zhou Xingxing's agent to Earth Studio, then Zhou Xingxing would no longer be invited to star in Mo Wen's next movie.
Although this is a lie told by Gu Ling, after all, Mo Wen can't let others star in Xingye's movie, but this does not prevent Gu Ling from pulling the banner, and the effect is surprisingly good.
In the end, the brokerage company behind Zhou Xingxing compromised.
After all, if there is no Mo Wen's support, then Zhou Xingxing, an actor who is not at the level of the stream, even if he is tired to death in a year, at most he will only receive six or seven movies, not to mention whether the unfamous Zhou Xingxing can receive so many movies, even if he can receive them, they are all supporting roles, and the salary is only about 100,000.
In a year, the brokerage company behind Zhou Xingxing can earn four or five hundred thousand yuan from Zhou Xingxing at most.
There are more than three years left in the contract between their agency and Zhou Xingxing, that is to say, if nothing else, Zhou Xingxing's actor level cannot be improved during this period, then their agency can earn about 1.5 million from Zhou Xingxing at most.
And Zhou Xingxing's liquidated damages are only three million, and now Gu Ling is willing to buy out Zhou Xingxing's brokerage contract for 4 million, which is completely a great face for their brokerage company.
Moreover, if they do not agree, it is very likely to offend a genius director.
Although Mo Wen is still just a director who only shoots a popular online drama and a high-quality movie. Such a director, their agency is not without it, and they don't need to care about a rookie director like Mo Wen at all.
But Mo Wen is too young, and the two works that debuted are either popular or boutique, such a genius, anyone can foresee how high his achievements will be in the future.
As long as Mo Wen doesn't die by himself, it will not be difficult to become a first-class director in the future.
And a first-class director's status in the entertainment industry is not low, compared with those first-class stars, the director's status is obviously much higher.
Even if first-class stars have many more fans than first-class directors, their status is lower than that of first-class directors, after all, stars also have to listen to directors.
Otherwise, he doesn't need you as a director, even if you have more fans, and there is no good director to shoot good works, then your fans will slowly forget about you.
Therefore, directors of the same level have a higher status than stars, and those stars will not easily offend a director of the same level.
After all, there are many stars at the same level, if you don't come to participate, other stars will come.
And there are so many directors of the same level, there are not everyone competing for it, saying that if you are not needed, you can be without you.
Unless you have a huge amount of capital to back it up, it's better not to offend a high-level director.
For actors, high-level directors can make you popular. And for entertainment companies, high-level directors can help you make money.
Who wants to offend such an existence?
Therefore, after Gu Ling offered a price of 4 million, he not only gave face to the brokerage company behind Zhou Xingxing, but also took care of Zhou Xingxing's reputation, and everyone can be said to be happy.
The brokerage company behind Zhou Xingxing naturally has no reason not to let go.
Otherwise, Gu Ling directly paid Zhou Xingxing 3 million liquidated damages, and if he could take Zhou Xingxing away, their brokerage company would make 1 million less money, and they would offend Mo Wen, a genius director.
Just doing this will affect Zhou Xingxing's reputation in the future, and people will say that he doesn't miss the old feelings.
In this way, it is not good for all three parties.
As for Zhou Xingxing's side, he is naturally willing to sign in to Mo Wen's Earth Studio, so that in the future, his resources will definitely be much more than in the original brokerage company.
At least there is a qualification to play the male number one waiting for him now, as long as he performs well, there will definitely be such opportunities in the future.
It's just that when he saw the ten-year signing time on the contract and the liquidated damages of up to 10 billion, he was a little hesitant.
Although Mo Wen's other conditions are very good, such as his fifty-five points with Earth Studio, he gets two percent more income than the three or seven points of his previous agency.
For another example, Mo Wen promised him that there would be at least one movie every year for him to play the male lead.
These all made Zhou Xingxing's heart excited, and the longer the signing time, the longer the contract, in order to improve his level and income, he endured it for a while.
