Chapter 126: Inventory of Income

"Smiling Proud Jianghu"? Could you be mistaken? I heard them say that we are negotiating the adaptation rights of "The Legend of the Withering Heroes"! ”

"Huh? "Shooting"? ”

“… What's wrong? Do you want to make "Smiling Pride"? ”

Shen Xudong nodded: "I want to write a "Smiling Pride" fandom or shoot "Smiling Pride" from a different angle, and set the protagonist as Lin Pingzhi!" ”

“… Coterie... I guess Mr. Jin Yong won't agree! ”

"Hehe..."

Jin Yong didn't care so much about copyright, so he was reserved at first, and later, he simply let people change it, otherwise, how do you explain the genuine "Smiling Proud Jianghu" and "The Withered Heroes"?

Zhao Linhai said the news he knew: "I heard that the copyright of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was taken away by Perfect Time and Space... They bought the game adaptation rights, and by the way, they also bought the film and television adaptation rights! ”

Zhao Xin: "You should be very familiar with Perfect Company..."

The game "Zhu Xian" was launched this year... However, if "Smiling Proud Jianghu" falls into their hands, it is estimated that it will not be easy to adapt..."

"Why?"

"They definitely want to adapt the game..."

The original time and space, perfect time and space did almost do "Smiling Proud Jianghu":

Look at a piece of news' The film "New Smile and Proud Jianghu" has been approved and is scheduled to start shooting in the first half of this year. According to insiders, in addition to the new version of the visual effects and grid, the original book has also made major changes, the most subversive of which is to "merge Dongfang Undefeated" and Ren Yingying into one, creating a new and complex character. ’

Isn't this even bolder than the original?

In addition, there is also Yuan Heping's press release' "Eighth Master" Yuan Heping will start filming the costume movie "New Smile and Proud Jianghu" after the Lunar New Year next year, and it is intended that Jin Chengwu will play Ling Hu Chong, Zhou Xun will play Ren Yingying, and Dongfang Undefeated will be played by Zhou Jielun. ’

Burst...

Zhou Jielun plays the undefeated East?

"That's... Definitely not! ”

Zhao Linhai then talked about "Shooting Wither": "Tang Ren seems to have obtained the adaptation rights of "Shooting Wither" and invited us to co-produce it! ”

“… Bought it from Mr. Jin Yong? ”

"Hmm..."

Shen Xudong struggled for a moment, and then said, "... To be honest, I'm not interested in Jin Yong's adaptation anymore, unless I'm willing to..."

“… Didn't let you adapt, we just invested together! ”

“… All right. ”

……

In fact, investing in TV series, in addition to popular models, high-quality works are about 50%~100% profitable...

"The Best Family" is a high-quality product, profitable, more than 80%.

But... This profit distribution, Liao Gaoxiang is quite unhappy.

He only has a fixed income as a screenwriter, even if the company later rewarded 1 million red envelopes, he still felt unreasonable, after all, the script was created by him!

Therefore, the main producer of the second part was changed to TiMi Studio, and let him be the producer...

In this case, he can take 25% of the proceeds!

Because the company takes half of it, and the studio takes half of it...

In fact, this profit distribution model is quite unreasonable, because the four of them have the ability to write or lead the team independently!

It's okay if the company takes half of it, and you still engage in this kind of studio splitting up half...

Let's negotiate and solve this problem after graduation!

Last year, several people made a lot of money and changed their cars.

Shen Xudong knows that Liao Gaoxiang's income is at least 4 million...

Of course, Shen Xudong must have earned the most, and the account share of "Wulin Gaiden" has not yet arrived, but "The Best Family" has already given him 8 million yuan - he is the chief producer!

In addition, it is the account sharing of "The Aviator"...

Several co-productions have also made money, such as "Cruel Streets" and "Witness to the Whole People"...

By the way, at this stage, it is still the era of buying out the distribution rights, but it is called co-production, and it does not participate in the entire creation, nor does it participate in the development of the entire project.

Hong Kong investors also don't care whether the mainland sells for money or not, because the money from the mainland will not be distributed to Hong Kong investors.

The buyout of the distribution rights of the two dramas cost a total of 45 million, the former 10 million, and the latter 30 million!

The box office of "Cruel Street" was 68 million, deducting the distribution fees and publicity fees allocated to China Film, earning 3 million, plus audio-visual copyrights and TV copyrights, and the income was almost 8 million;

"Witnessed by the Whole People" earns a little more, the box office account alone is close to 55 million, deducting the distribution fee, publicity fee and cost, the net profit is close to 10 million, the audio and video copyright, TV copyright is almost 12 million, and the total is close to 22 million...

Shen Xudong can share half of this money!

Both of these are projects he leads.

Together, these make a gain of nearly 50 million.

In fact, the company actually lost money last year...

On the one hand, there are too many project developments, and on the other hand, the balance of many TV stations has not been settled...

It's a state of making ends meet...

But the company can't make ends meet, regardless of Shen Xudong's money-making business, if Shen Xudong's optimistic project makes money, he should have a share of the account!

This is his fair share of gain.

Of course, Shen Xudong is at ease...

In addition to these, there are also dividends from several horror movies, screenwriter fees, etc., anyway, the income from film and television is 71 million...

In my own job, the income from writing is a little less - less than 23 million.

The lion's share is the remuneration for "Snail House", and then the royalties of other books and overseas royalties...

Shen Xudong calculated the accounts like this, and last year's income was less than 100 million...

Even if you add the cross-border income in other fields - program account sharing, writing songs, endorsements, etc., it is less than 100 million!

That's about 98 million...

Feel... It's a failure, it's been three years, and people have memories of financial freedom for a long time...

Like him, he can't even get the money to invest in the production of "Twilight"!

But when I think about it again, he is only 23 years old, and he already earns nearly 100 million yuan a year...

It's still pretty awesome!

……

“… It's just too cold! ”

"Is it heated or cold?"

"Not used to..."

On Chinese New Year's Eve, a family of three chatted while waiting for the Spring Festival Gala...

My parents are still not used to the climate in the north, so Shen Xudong proposed: "Or, tomorrow I will book three tickets to Hainan, let's go to Hainan for a few days?" ”

Mother Shen gave him a blank look: "... Are you stupid? Shall we not go home for New Year's greetings? Your grandmother and your grandmother miss you! ”

Shen Xudong's attention is still on the Spring Festival Gala - this year's Spring Festival Gala has "Auspicious Three Treasures" and "Talking about Things", which are all classics!

replied casually: "... I haven't seen my in a long time..."

"However, it's not easy for you to go back, your cousin's work is not going well, and he wants to come to BJ to break through... You're so famous now, you'll definitely be asked to help arrange it! ”

“… I'm not an official, what can I arrange? ”

"Then you know a lot of people..."

"Don't be embarrassed for the kids!" Shen Mingguang interrupted Shen's mother's words, and turned his head to look at Shen Xudong: "I see that you have been in the study for a long time in the afternoon, what is it?" ”

"Oh, I'll do the math of how much money I made last year!"

“… How much do you earn? ”

Shen Xudong came back to his senses, and then said with a smile: "Less than 100 million!" ”

"Less than 100 million... That..."

"More than 30 million... The main movie "The Aviator" makes a lot of money..."

Shen Xudong originally wanted to say more than 3,000, but some time ago he told them that "The Aviator" earned more than 20 million...

“… So much that you have saved? ”

Shen Xudong thought for a while, and then explained: "Mom, film and television production is different from the general industry, don't look at more than 30 million, if a project doesn't go well, it will be gone!" ”

"How could it be?"

"Let's say I won't let you pass the trial... Isn't the money going down the drain? For example, a mistake in judgment and a box office slump... The money has also been wasted..."
