Chapter 323 One hand script, one hand contract

Du Qifeng looked at Zhou Chen and asked softly:

"I have a question!"

"You say."

"Can you just be ruthless?"

Du Qifeng seemed to be afraid that Zhou Chen would not understand what this sentence meant, and explained"

"The role I give you, I only need you to be ruthless!"

Zhou Chen didn't answer, just looked at Du Qifeng with calm eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly calmed down.

In an instant, there was an inexplicable aura on his body.

Even a great director like Du Qifeng, who is accustomed to seeing the world, felt a chill in his heart when facing Zhou Chen's eyes.

But the more he did that, the brighter his eyes became.

"That's it! That's it! ”

There was no doubt that Zhou Chen understood what he meant, and he was able to do it easily.

Du Qifeng immediately took out a contract and handed it to Zhou Chen.

"You can look at the contract! If the right thing is, we can sign it now! ”

Zhou Chen took the contract and looked at it, first of all, the salary is still relatively reasonable, 40 million before tax!

Don't look at the fact that there are only 40 million, compared with those 60 million salaries, there is still a difference of 20 million.

But these are reasonable and legal incomes.

Some producers give 60 million, or even hundreds of millions, all of which are required.

Some do not follow the contract, and some have unacceptable additional conditions.

Those things are illegal.

Although these 40 million are a little less, they are at ease!

However, the 40 million before tax actually does not belong to Zhou Chen.

The remuneration of actors has always been a bit inflated, so the tax rate is also quite high.

Half of the 40 million salary needs to be taxed.

Those who are paid 200 million yuan pay more, and even more than half of them have to be used to pay taxes.

This can also explain why so many actors choose to take risks.

However, Zhou Chen has always been a person who abides by the rules, so he will not do those risky things.

With a salary of 40 million, Zhou Chen felt that there was no problem, but he still did not sign the contract immediately.

Zhou Chen looked up at Du Qifeng and asked:

"Director Du, can I read the script?"

It's a normal process to read the script before signing a contract.

For many well-known actors, the salary of a movie is not important at all, what they need is a film work that is enough to pass on!

If there is such a good movie, they are even willing to pay for it.

Although Du Qifeng is a well-known director, the director's works over the years are all classics without exception.

But Zhou Chen still decided to read the script first.

The words he suddenly uttered made Du Qifeng obviously stunned for a moment.

After a while, he said:

"That's it, you sign the contract first, and if you have a script, I'll give it to you tomorrow!"

Zhou Chen shook his head.

"I will see the script before I sign the contract!"

He didn't want to be caught.

Du Qifeng is a great director in the end, with a calmness that is different from ordinary people.

If there is a script, of course he is willing to give it to Zhou Chen.

But this time, "Big Event" and the previous "Mobile Force" and "Gunfire" are all unscripted shooting.

Du Qifeng is a director with a strong style.

He doesn't like the fact that the media call his films commercial, or theatrical.

Du Qifeng doesn't like his movies to be summed up so simply.

He likes his movies to be full of Du Qifeng's style!

What is Du Qifeng's style? It's about daring to try, daring to do those unknown things.

Therefore, filming without a script, this kind of shooting method that does not even know the detailed development of the future plot has become very suitable for Du Qifeng's style.

After taking two puffs of cigarette, he said to Zhou Chen:

"Looks like the two of us are going to find a place to have a good conversation."

Saying that, Du Qifeng looked at Ye Daxin on the side.

"Director Ye, does Zhou Chen still have any scenes to shoot today?"

Ye Daxin wanted to nod, but looking at the famous movie tyrant in front of him, he still shook his head and said:

"Nope."

"Okay!"

Du Qifeng turned his head to look at Zhou Chen and said:

"Then let's find a café or a restaurant to talk to?"

It is very rare that he treats Zhou Chen with an equal attitude.

Zhou Chen also nodded.

"I'm going to change my clothes, I'll be right here."

......

In a high-end restaurant in Xiangjiang.

Because of the box, Du Qifeng can still indulge in his cigars and red wine.

In Du Qifeng's body, you can always feel the aura of a gang boss.

No wonder some people call him the godfather of Xiangjiang.

Du Qifeng took a soft puff of his cigar, and then exhaled a puff of smoke.

The smoke dispersed in the air, and it looked very beautiful.

As a great director, Du Qifeng seems to have the ability to manipulate beauty.

There are two types of props that often appear in his films, a beam of light and a cigar.

One is used to render the atmosphere of the scene and create a stage effect.

The latter is used to portray the character.

People compare the cigar to the eleventh finger and consider it to be a symbol of status, status.

However, Zhou Chen looked at these things relatively lightly.

As he said before, a beggar doesn't become noble just because he has a cigar in his hand.

It is always money, not goods, that is noble.

As an actor, Zhou Chen will rarely borrow these items to show the character's character in his performance.

He plays a complex person, not a symbol replaced by an object.

The two of them had been sitting in the room for half an hour.

And the cigar in Du Qifeng's hand was already half smoked.

Du Qifeng's favorite cigar is the Cuban Montecristo, which can satisfy an hour's smoking.

Finally, when the cigar was half-smoked, Du Qifeng finally spoke.

"Zhou Chen, I don't have the script for the time being, but I can tell you the general plot."

"I think you should have seen my work before and knew my directorial style, so you should have faith in me."

Zhou Chen nodded, Du Qifeng is indeed a convincing director, although he just listens to the synopsis of the story, he can probably see a corner of this movie.

He said:

"In that case, please tell the synopsis of the story first."

"Okay!"

As he spoke, Du Qifeng took another puff of his cigarette.

Zhou Chen was a little puzzled, how dare Du Qifeng smoke cigars like this.

This thing is not as powerful as an ordinary cigarette.

But Du Qifeng acted as if nothing was going on, and continued:

"Actually, this movie originated from a robbery!"

Then in Du Qifeng's mouth, a completed story slowly unfolded.

This story also begins with a robber, Chen Yiyuan.

Chen Yiyuan is a bandit, but when he came to Xiangjiang, he was targeted by the police.

But there were also surprises in this fight!
