Chapter 425: Huge Surprise! (Ask for subscription)
Huzi's actions were very fast, and the next day he brought back the adaptation rights contract for "The Emperor Kangxi".
In addition to 100,000 yuan, there is also a 2% right to dividends of various profits.
This is the same as the previous "Dragon Flying Three Goes to Jiangnan", Zhang Baorui and Februaryhe have it.
Even Zhang Li, Zhang Xi, who wrote "The Story of the Waiting Room", and Liang Huan, who wrote "Sister Idler", have this 2% dividend right.
Don't look at only 2%, if you really do it, you can have 5-100,000 at will, or even 50-1 million.
Don't dare to say anything else, Zhang Baorui, Zhang Li, Zhang Xi, Liang Huan, each work should be able to have a dividend of 100,000 yuan.
Needless to say, after "Kangxi Dynasty" came out, it could be sold directly overseas, and the dividend of 1 million was a conservative estimate.
Xuluo likes to make money, but he doesn't like to eat white food, that is, he doesn't like to swallow it all by himself.
He likes to give profits to people who have worked together, such as actors, directors, screenwriters, crew, etc.
On the surface, you will have to share at least hundreds of thousands, millions of profits.
But in the long run, who wouldn't want to cooperate with Xuluo?
You say that you write a book and a script, and the same two people buy it, does the author give an extra 2% dividend, or someone else who buys out the price is not high?
You said that when you encounter the same two dramas, the director is willing to come to Xuluo's side, without interference, with abundant funds, and can give dividends if you make money; Or are you willing to go to the other side to give you money, don't chirp crookedly?
It's the same with the actors.
Everyone must be going to someone who is better for them, and they will not say that they are looking for abuse.
Many times, even if the initial conditions of Xuluo are not as good as those given by others, most people will be willing to look for Xuluo after serious consideration.
That's why it's important to build a long-term reputation.
Xuluo is a bit like this now.
Not to mention those actors with good personalities, Jiang Wen, who has a short-tempered personality and is very self-egoistic, likes Xuluo very much.
On the one hand, I admire Xuluo's talent, and on the other hand, I like Xuluo's generous and unpretentious character.
I prefer Xuluo who is never afraid of his pressure, and he can talk at any time.
When you get together with such a person, you can eat two more bites.
For example, today, in the afternoon, Jiang Wen urged Xuluo to take a look at his set and have a drink in the evening.
Poor young man, I don't like to drink, but all I come into contact with all day long is acquaintances and friends, do you say you don't drink? Isn't that hypocritical!
You don't look like Yin Jun, you will get drunk after taking a sip of wine, so let's drink it!
Of course, you have to do things first.
The place where Xuluo was invited was a dilapidated barracks several kilometers outside the Second Ring Road.
Originally, it was a military camp, but it was later abolished and handed over to the local government, and the village used it as a pig farm, but it has been abandoned in recent years.
Jiang Wen took a fancy to this place and turned it into his own training base.
Boy.
This filming has not started yet, and tens of thousands of dollars have been spent on this base alone.
The key is that this base is useless yet, just to train that group of children and let them have the style of a real big yard disciple.
I have to look elsewhere for the filming place.
....To say that Jiang Wen is also a master who can spend money.
A few months ago, when he said his idea, he asked Xuluo to get 1 million, and then someone else invested 1 million in him, and now he has spent a lot of money.
When Xuluo entered the barracks, he found that it was not simple, the house had been repaired, the playground had been prepared, and there was a basketball hoop.
When he came, Jiang Wen was acting as a referee, playing with a group of half-grown children.
Xuluo found a bench next to him and sat down, and waited for about ten minutes before the game was over.
Jiang Wen, who had already seen Xuluo, came to Xuluo's side out of breath, picked up a glass of water and drank it.
"Luo'er, what do you think of me here?" He triumphantly pointed around.
"I don't know, I thought you were filming military themes." Xuluo said amusedly, "How have you trained this group of children?" When will I see the film? ”
"Don't panic!"
Jiang Wen said disdainfully: "Can filming be easy?" This is the first time I've been a director myself, so I don't have to be serious and careful? You just say that you don't support your brother, right? ”
Xu Luo didn't sound right, "No, Brother Jiang, am I not enough to support you?" ”
"Of course not enough!" Jiang Wen slapped his thigh, "What is the relationship between the two of us?" That's iron! You are so rich and you know movies so well, you should know that my book is a good story, so you should support me with a little more funds, so that I can shoot without distractions! ”
"Didn't I give 1 million?" Xu Luo said, "The investment of 2 million is enough for you, a feature film with no special effects, no big-name actors, and simple scenes, right?" ”
"That's a fart, that grandson ran away!"
"Who?"
"Just say invest in that grandson for me!" Jiang Wen grinned when he said it, "It turns out that this guy is a mouth-seller, and he made a little money by abducting and abducting from the pit, but after losing money in business, the whole person disappeared!" I didn't even have a penny! ”
"That's right."
Xuluo thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll also go out with the rest!" ”
Hengzhi is only 2 million, looking at Jiang Wen's face, looking at his eagerness to confirm his share, Xuluo is also willing to pay.
"But I have to tell you something." Jiang Wen said, "Another Xiangjiang film businessman came to me and wanted to invest in me, what do you think?" ”
Xu Luo was surprised: "Your fame has spread to Xiangjiang?" Who took the initiative to find you? ”
Jiang Wen said: "It's a person named Yang Shoucheng, he said that he is the owner of Xiangjiang Film Company, do you know him?" ”
The young man searched in his memory, and then bowed his head and said, "Oh, this person, although his background is not very legitimate, I heard that the wind is not bad...... It's about the same as the Xiang brothers, so it should be fine. ”
Jiang Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
It is not easy for outsiders to get money, and he understands this deeply.
People who make movies can't take any money, otherwise it's too late to cry if something goes wrong in the future.
Especially after the Kan Dashan guy disappeared this time, he was really a little scared.
If Xuluo said that Boss Yang had a problem, then he wouldn't dare to ask for more money.
....Since Xuluo said that there is no problem, then you can take the money.
But the next moment, Xuluo reacted, "No, you asked me to take the 2 million, how much does he want to invest?" ”
Jiang Wen smiled shamelessly, "Isn't it just 2 million!" ”
"You ......"
Xuluo smiled angrily, "My brother Jiang, you have such a small cost movie, you take 4 million, are you sorry?" …… Tell me honestly, what are you doing with it? ”
"What's there? Isn't it just for filming! Jiang Wen hugged Xuluo and dragged him up, "Let's go, I'll show you the little ones I chose!" I've trained you out, and you will definitely have to thank my brother for giving you a few good actors in the future! ”
This guy avoids the important and trivial, he must have a ghost in his heart.
Of course, Xu Luo would not suspect that Jiang Wen was a person who filled his own pockets, it was purely an insult to his own eyes.
Jiang Wen doesn't care about money at all, although "Beijinger in New York" was filmed abroad, he was only paid 2,000 yuan per episode, which is really a bit low compared to other people's coffee positions, but Jiang Wen didn't say anything about it, if you give it to him, he will take it.
Of course, in the end, he and Zheng Xiaolong took on the role of director again, and they took another 200,000 when they paid dividends, which is quite generous.
Xuluo suspects that he has a ghost in his heart, thinking that this guy must have unnecessary waste in order to pursue the quality of shooting, or the so-called excellence.
If you spend money like this, two million will be completely unstoppable.
In Xiangjiang, the person who has this stinky problem is Xu Ke, for example, he is obsessed with "The Legend of Shushan", because he pursues special effects excessively, so that the production company loses money and does not wear pants.
In addition, Mr. Hu Jinquan of Treasure Island is the same - Hu Jinquan is the copyright owner of "Dragon Gate Inn", in order to shoot a sunrise scene of "Chivalrous Girl", he took the crew in the valley for more than a month to shoot, and the most devastating thing is that this shot was useless in the end!!
Jiang Wen is a stubborn person, who thinks very highly of himself and pursues perfection, and it is very likely that he is this kind of person who is unwilling to compromise on money in order to achieve his own shooting effect.
Only this explanation can explain why he took so much money!
While pondering here, Jiang Wen led him to the group of half-grown children who were drinking water and playing.
Before he could speak, Xu Luo said "Huh", "Brother Jiang, is this your relative?" ”
The teenage boy that the boy looked at was thin and weak, with a bit of sharp-beaked monkey gills, and he looked too much like Jiang Wen when he was young, or directly a little Jiang Wen.
"Haha!"
Jiang Wen smiled and touched the little boy's head, "His name is Xia Yu, from Qingdao, when I was screening photos, my mother said that this child looked like I was a child...... So I asked him to come and give it a try! Sure enough, the monkey spirit monkey spirit is quite clever. ”
As he spoke, he pointed to Xuluo and said, "Call someone! Call Uncle Luo! ”
Xia Yu swallowed his saliva, looked at Xuluo, who was obviously not two or three years older than him, and shouted against his will: "Uncle Luo! ”
Xia Yu's age was too young, and he didn't know how much Jiang Wen would help him in the future if he let him call him "Uncle Luo".
Not to mention anything else, just with this sentence Uncle Luo, he will be able to eat in Xuluo's films in the future, and if he is lucky and strong, he will be able to be a first-line, even if it is not good, at least one role actor or production staff is more than enough.
....Why?
Because people have roots, Jiang Wen asked him to call you uncle, and you should also go down, can you just treat the affairs of the younger generation as an ordinary entertainment?
No, you can't.
This is the relationship of being in the world.
Of course, Jiang Wen understood this, so he didn't usually do this.
It's just that this kid is too much in line with his intentions, and he has a bit of the energy to look at his childhood, so Jiang Wen wants to give him a creation.
Xia Yu is not tall, but Xuluo was not embarrassed to touch his head, just smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Act well......"
"Boom~~~"
Suddenly, colorful pictures and noisy noises appeared in front of the boy's eyes.
"People light candles, ghosts blow out lamps."
"Heaven and earth have aura since ancient times, gathered in the mountains and rivers, and manifested in the wind and clouds, which is called the dragon vein, and there must be a heavy treasure where the dragon vein; Touching the gold school Wei uses the compass to palm the eight directions, divides yin and yang, and surveys the veins of mountains and rivers, which is called gold; Observing the clouds with formulas, astrological fields, and fixing the dragon's lair, it is called looking for the dragon; The two techniques of dividing gold and finding the dragon are in the body, and the world can go; This mantra has been passed down from generation to generation, and it has not been extinguished for thousands of years, and the same way calls it: looking for the dragon. ”
"Miss Yang Xueli, would you like to put our pure leather. Friendship, sublimate it again?!"
"You Hu Bayi take it up and put it down, I don't think about it as much as you, I miss the old, the woman I Wang Kaixuan loved will remember her for a lifetime."
“……”
All the pictures and sounds are combined into one movie - "Ghost Blows the Lantern: The Quest for the Dragon".
This is a very weird tomb robbery film, and the atmosphere and the similar gold-touching school captain system make Xuluo feel a kind of charm.
The three leading actors have never seen Xuluo, and Xia Yu is just a supporting role in it - Big Golden Tooth.
Xia Yu's future development prospects are so poor? actually played a supporting role for others, and he was not the first supporting role?
Xuluo sighed in his heart, thinking that he would have to take more care of him in the future, otherwise Jiang Wen's hard work towards him would be wasted.
So his words also changed, "Exercise yourself more, and I'll take you to Hollywood to act in a movie in the future!" ”
"Good!"
Xia Yu smiled when he heard Hao Laiwu, and he didn't know if he understood.
Jiang Wen didn't say much, and pulled over another taller half-grown boy: "This is Pan Yueming, I didn't want to find someone with acting experience, but this kid is also very aura, and I like it too...... Come, call Uncle Luo. ”
"Uncle Luo!"
Pan Yueming was more active than Xia Yu and hurriedly called.
He looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, and he was over 170 tall.
Listening to his accent, Xuluo asked, "Do you know me?" ”
Pan Yueming nodded and said with a little excitement: "I watched your "Story of the Editorial Department" and "I Love My Home"! ”
He is obviously from Beijing and has acting experience, so he is an insider.
Of course, such a half-grown child knows who Xuluo is, unlike Xia Yu, who is ignorant.
He naturally understands the meaning of calling Xuluo "Uncle Luo".
Even if it is not as deep as understanding, knowing is definitely a good way to get closer.
Xuluo smiled and stretched out his hand, "You are the same, work hard......"
"Boom~~"
The moment the two shook hands, countless pictures and sounds followed.
The two most important points of the dragon vein are form and potential. The avenue dragon walks with its own truth, and it is a dragon body that looms in the air. ”
"A bamboo tube is loaded with heavenly machines, and several copper plates are used to divide everything, and you don't need to say anything to see people, you can know the high and low."
"I don't believe what you say, but I can't help it, I believe you as a person since I was a child."
"Mortals see mountains as mountains, and mountains are the same as us, and they have life. Eighty years in the life of a mortal, 100,000 years in the life of a mountain, 2,000 years of sleep, 800 years of turning over, how can you mortals with the naked eye see through the vicissitudes of life? ”
"Don't tell lies in front of real people, the bronze mirror that can suppress corpses and ward off evil spirits is the symbol of Legalism, which is said to have been built in Ziyang Mountain, and can illuminate the four dimensions of heaven and earth, courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame."
“……”
This time, the memory enlightenment came even more fiercely, and he actually presented five wonderful tomb robbery TV series to Xuluo in one breath - "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The Essence of the Ancient City", "Ghost Blowing Lantern: Longling Maze", "Ghost Blowing Lantern: Colorful Cloud Worm Valley", "Ghost Blowing Lantern: Kunlun Shrine" and "Ghost Blowing Lantern: The South China Sea Ruins".
Boy!
Although it is only a TV series, in terms of excitement, it is not inferior to the previous movie "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Looking for the Dragon", and it is more delicate.
Then except for the first "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Essence of the Ancient City", the corners of the other four TV series versions are actually the handsome young man in front of him, but he was already very rich at that time, as if he was in his forties.
But it is obvious that Pan Yueming's development is far better than Xia Yu's, otherwise it would be impossible for people to star in four such big-budget TV series in a row.
And Xuluo also understands that "Ghost Blows the Lamp" is really a series, maybe there are far more than these six.
If you dig deeper, maybe you can get a dozen or twenty pieces?
If so, not only can the movie be made similar to the Raiders of the Lost Ark series?
And then the TV series can make a more delicate version and harvest the TV audience?
After such a series is filmed, it can not only be broadcast in China, but also rise up in the world with a wave of touching the theme of Jinxiao Lieutenant, and become the output of the Chinese culture that I dream of?
Although this kind of output is not like Cheng Long and Li Lianjie's movies, it is also a kind of soft culture output after all, so that everyone can better understand the colorful customs and habits of China and the theme of touching the gold school captain, right?
It is obviously a good thing to let another type of movie that is different from the theme of Hollywood be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and let everyone know about Chinese culture and movies!
The boy himself is making movies, and of course he understands how many admirers such a series of movies spanning one or two decades will bring to Chinese culture, and how many young people who will be friendly and interested in China.
Even if they affect not one generation, it is likely to be two or three generations!
With people who have crossed so many generations to have a good impression of China, our situation abroad should be better and better!!
Xuluo didn't expect it.
Jiang Wen, a big-name actor, didn't give him any inspiration for the future, but two children gave him such a big gift, a super project that was enough for Xuluo's film and television empire to develop for twenty or thirty years!
This trip is really the right one!
Then again, without Jiang Wen, I wouldn't have seen these two little guys, and if I want to have an intersection with them, I'm afraid it will be three or five years later, ten years later!
What if the author had already written the story by then?
So Jiang Wen is always his own lucky star!
It's not in vain that I gave him so much money to make a movie!
……
Xuluo, who raised his head, gave Jiang Wen a thumbs up: "Brother Jiang, the actor you chose is really good!" This vision alone is enough to be a director! ”
Jiang Wen knows Xuluo's character, this little brother never slaps on the back, and no one is worthy of his ass.
So what Xuluo said is true, he just admires his vision.
So he became proud, "I'll let you see the heroine I chose in a few days...... That's called a pretty! That's what makes a smell. If you don't have a girlfriend, you're going to chase her! ”
The boy laughed but didn't say a word.
It doesn't matter if it's beautiful or not, the key is to inspire me in the future.
I already have four wives at home, plus a white lady and a fairy sister, I don't want to add any more!
……
