Chapter 342: Salary Negotiation/Preparing to Enter the Group

Good boy, play like that, huh?

Van Disse was completely speechless after hearing Su Mu's words.

At this moment, the atmosphere in the conference room is a little awkward.

After a little silence, Van Diesel looked at Director Mike on the side with embarrassment.

At this time, Director Mike also threw him an inquiring look.

Silence is better than sound here.

The two began to make eye contact.

'Van Diese, didn't you tell me before that he could do it for 30 million? ’

'I'm sorry, Director Mike, it was indeed 30 million before, but now this kid has become 35 million again, and I really don't blame me for this. ’

'That's troublesome, I've already prepared it for him at a price of 30 million, and now he wants to change his hexagram temporarily, it's very difficult for me to do it, I think it's very disrespectful to me, do you think you should talk to him? ’

Van Diesey: "......"

Looking at Mike's endorsement eyes, Fa Disai felt pressured.

He knows that Su Mu can do anything, but he can't be sloppy about the salary.

Don't say he should pay attention, he didn't add money to you, even if it was a blessing.

In the end, he still gave a helpless look.

Director Mike, I can't help it, I can help me usually, but I still have to talk to him about this matter myself.

After a look of explanation, Van Dyce looked straight away.

The corners of Director Mike's mouth twitched, and he had already planned in his heart, and when he joined the group, he had to make Van Dyse's role more difficult.

sighed, let's talk to Su Mu in person.

Mike looked at Su Mu, who had a calm face, and continued to speak with a smile: "Su Mu, I'm sorry, I'm a little embarrassed about the price you said.

Fan Diser clearly told me that it was the standard of 30 million, but now he has temporarily changed his hexagram, which caught us off guard, in fact, I think that everyone should show some sincerity to each other, don't you? ”

Hearing Director Mike's words, Su Mu smiled faintly: "Director, I think my sincerity is enough." ”

“……”

"In order to be able to play this role, I have turned myself into a real prison expert, and I have almost broken through all the prisons in Chicago, including the most famous Devil's Island in the United States.

You don't know how much sweat I've put into it, but I feel like the moment I became an expert, I showed my sincerity.

Any labor should be rewarded accordingly, do you say? Or if you can find a second actor who can do that, I can compromise as well. ”

“……”

Listening to Su Mu's words, Director Mike and Fan Disay on the side were silent.

To tell you the truth, this sounds a bit arrogant, and even tells them that I can't be replaced, and if you can't find a second one, you have to give me this price.

I wanted to refute it, but I felt that it made sense.

Because that's exactly what happened.

If it is replaced by other foreign actors, even if it is an Oscar winner, it may not be able to shake Mike, after all, the big director still has his own persistence and pride.

But when asked, the person in front of him was an expert who was praised and thanked by name in the major prisons.

This gold content is different.

Through this, he has made a name for himself and is still in the mainstream media.

If he participates in the TV series Prison Break next, the popularity will definitely be a bonus.

Mike has his eye on this as well.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to give up the other three actors in advance and choose Su Mu.

At this point,

Fan Disai on the side suddenly felt that the atmosphere was very depressing.

Let's open your mouth and be a peacemaker.

He persuaded Su Mu: "Su, in fact, I think the price of 30 million is very reasonable. And once you are born and twice cooked, it is better to sell a face to the director, and Director Mike will also give you more film appointments in the future. ”

Su Mu shook his head directly, refusing without even thinking about it.

Just kidding, how much is that face thing worth?

I haven't lowered the price in China, and now it's even more impossible to wronged myself when I go abroad.

While thinking about it, Su Mu's eyes were anxious: "Fan Disai, you may not understand, I also opened a company in China, and there is a large family waiting to eat with me, if I can't make more money, the company behind me will go out of business, and those employees below me will also lose their jobs, so my pressure is actually very great." ”

Van Diese: "......"

Mike: "......"

Su Mu looked sincere: "Do you think the 5 million added in the back is money?" No, he is the guarantee of the happiness of hundreds of families! I'm really not insatiable, I just want to give the employees who trust me, a good life, am I wrong......"

[Speech +1]

[Emotion +1]

[+0.01+…]

“!”

“?”

Su Mu's words made Van Diesse and Mike stunned.

If you listen to the expressions, it is difficult to convince people of these plans.

But how can Su Mu act?

His expression and the sincerity in his eyes made them both have to believe it.

This brother may really be that kind of noble person......

Long.

Director Mike slapped his thigh!

"Okay! Three thousand five is three thousand five! Van Disse, don't say anything else, Su Mu is so difficult, we should give more, we should be generous, not too stingy. ”

“???”

Hearing Mike's words, Su Mu hadn't reacted yet, and Van Diese on the side was not good.

What the hell, why did you become stingy?

Lao Tzu was helping you talk before, big brother, and I have always been in the middle of the talk to each other, oh, he said 3000 is 3000, you say 3500 is 3500...... Inside and out, Lao Tzu finally became a stingy ghost?

Van Dysey vomited blood.

A little skeptical of life.

At this time, Su Mu had already gotten up and shook hands with Director Mike.

"Thank you Director Mike for his sincerity, I believe that this time our cooperation will be a great success, and the high-cost long series will be the mainstream of film and television in the future."

Director Mike's eyes lit up.

"I didn't expect you to have such a vision, although the current TV series is not too commercial. But I know that as long as it can be made with enough influence, it is not less commercial than the commercial value of the movie, let's add the contact information, I will make an appointment with you alone later, we really have to have a good chat, and then you will come to my hotel room. ”

Su Mu: "? ”

Van Diese: "! ”

Su Mu added contact information to Director Mike.

Van Diesse rolled his eyes from the side.

And at the end of the conversation, Mike also asked people to call Nelson outside.

"This friend of mine, I believe you all know each other, it is Nelson, the owner of Emperor C Company, in fact, he also came to see you this time, Su Mu.

Knowing that you were going to be acting in my long series, Mr. Nelson asked me to come and meet you. ”

While speaking, Nelson took the lead in reaching out and touching Su Mu.

"Hello Su Mu, I'm Nielsen, I don't know if you know anything about our company, we are the sworn enemies of Manwei Company."

Su Mu raised an eyebrow.

The grievances between the two companies, he had long heard William talk about them.

And it's a bit similar to Marvel and DC in the previous life.

So he knew very well that this time Nelson was looking for him personally, and he was preparing to fight for a bayonet.

Su Mu: "Mr. Nelson, someone from your company has contacted me before, but I don't know much about the competition between you and the company. ”

Nelson nodded and smiled, and went straight to the point: "Marvel Company just bought the copyright of Spider-Man you filmed, so our company naturally can't look at him as beautiful alone."

I came to work with you, and I hope that after you finish filming the play directed by Mike, can you consider our Emperor C Company.

Now we have some very good scripts in hand, which are already being prepared, and I believe that after filming, it will not be weaker than Spider-Man, think about it? ”

Don't talk about money, how do I think about it?

Su Mu said helplessly: "I see, but I'm sorry Nelson, I'm going to go back to China for a while after filming the prison break, you know, I still have a company to operate, and many employees need me to spend money on salaries, so it's hard for me to ......"

Van Diesey: "......"

Mike: "......"

At this moment, after Su Mu finished speaking, the two people next to him were silent again.

Déjà vu?

The boss of Emperor C came to invite him personally, but you refused?

It's a talent.

The two of them really didn't understand what Su Mu was thinking.

Let's not talk about whether Nelson will be unhappy, but as far as Emperor C's movies are concerned, Hollywood actors are all lined up to act.

Nelson suddenly smiled: "Okay Su Mu, I understand that you may have a lot of follow-up work, so in order to express the sincerity of our company, I am willing to pay 36 million US dollars to invite you to our company to film, I don't know if this is the case, can you rearrange the follow-up work?" ”

Su Mu raised his eyebrows, look, the boss is the boss, it's quite good.

He nodded with difficulty: "Well, well, since Mr. Nelson is so sincere, I can't say anything if I don't think about it." ”

Van Diese: "......"

Mike: "......"

You are embarrassed by Nima...... I just finished saying this to us just now, and now I have agreed to it after giving 3600.

The corners of their mouths twitched.

The conversation with Nielsen didn't last too long.

In fact, this time, the main thing is to meet and determine the intention.

If you say yes, you can't sign up for the rest of the job right away.

However, since there is already an intention, the progress will naturally be very smooth.

With the addition of contact information from Nielsen, today's meeting is officially over.

Sumu is still full of harvest.

On the one hand, the salary of 35 million US dollars was negotiated, and on the other hand, it also built a bridge with Emperor C Company to pave the way for the later arrangements.

Among them, he also roughly understood Nelson's thoughts.

In order to compete with Marvel's side, they also want to come up with the best content.

If his guess is correct, it must be Superman and Batman again.

Of course, in Su Mu's impression, the company named DC in the previous life also had a lot of works in his hands, and many of them impressed him.

It's just that listening to Nelson's expression of the script, it seems that half of it is not owned by their Emperor C Company at present.

Su Mu guessed that it might have been written by no one yet.

And if it hasn't been written yet, I can draw a good blind box in the future, and if I can't really draw out the scripts of some international blockbusters, I can make a lot of money when the time comes.

Saying goodbye to Director Mike and Fan Disai, it was already night when Su Mu returned to the hotel.

Since it was too late, I didn't eat dinner.

After briefly explaining to Xiao Tangerine and Master Zhu, Su Mu went back to the room to rest.

And before going to bed,

He received a call from William.

On the phone, William told him about the matter with Martin of the Danger Company.

Su Mu didn't expect that he would receive an invitation from these two companies on the same day.

Although during the day has verbally promised Nelson.

But it doesn't prevent him from verbally agreeing to the company now.

Sometimes, only competition can make a high price.

He is best at fishing.

Su Mu: "William, Nelson of Emperor C also looked for me. ”

William smiled: "I didn't expect that this time it was the boss who came to you in person, and it was sincere enough, but don't worry, I just helped Martin pass on a word, you don't have to be my favor, as for your final choice, I don't care, but I think you can wait a little longer and let them bid, and you should be able to get more returns."

If you need anything, I'll still help you.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that on the side of the company, there are actually a few good scripts, and they are very generous with money, so it depends on how you decide.

Anyway, let's make an appointment to meet Martin first. ”

"Okay."

A week passed quickly.

Qian Jida finally finished his work in China, took a plane non-stop, and flew back to the United States.

After seeing that Su Mu was safe and sound, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, there were no other moths.

Then it was time to negotiate the contract.

With Director Mike's team, there are many details that need to be talked about specifically, after all, 35 million is not a small amount.

After some tossing, Su Mu also successfully signed a contract with the prison escape crew.

The price of 35 million salary, the male number one in the film.

This is also his first long-form drama after coming to the United States.

And at the same time,

Nelson and Mandin are also getting closer and closer to Su Mu.

As if he was afraid that he would run into the hostile camp, he watched very closely.

However, Su Mu was also playing Tai Chi a little bit, and he was not in a hurry to respond to the two.

During this time, he spent all his time working on the script in the hotel.

The pace of the TV series Prison Break is actually quite fast, and the plot is also very exciting.

In order to help his brother escape from prison, the male protagonist took the initiative to enter the prison by risking his life, and then took a group of people to escape from prison through various methods.

He had watched the first season in his previous life.

The whole process is exciting and interlocking.

Although he is now well versed in the various techniques of prison escape, if he wants to play this character well, he still has to put in a little more effort.

A month after the completion of the contract signing.

Director Mike's preparations are almost over.

Immediately afterwards, it was announced that the actors had officially joined the group and started filming...
