Chapter 580: The Big Guy's Daily Life
In the past, when filming TV dramas, Li Shengyao attached great importance to the finale and the celebration banquet, and every time he celebrated the banquet, he must have a good chat with the main actors, about the production of the work, to communicate, to find his own shortcomings, and to have an attitude of "I have three provinces a day".
And now he is much calmer about the celebration banquet, more of a process, the purpose is not to dig into the shortcomings, but to relax.
After the celebration banquet of "Dalian by the Sea", Li Shengyao and the main actors agreed on the time for dubbing after the New Year, and then the crew dispersed.
Lu Han went to the peninsula, and Zhang Songwen returned to his hometown.
Li Shengyao took the film crew to Yanjing, and as soon as he arrived in Yanjing, he immediately received a large number of invitations.
The Lunar New Year stalls have passed, and the next thing is the New Year stalls.
The premieres of many movies wanted to invite Li Shengyao, and Li Shengyao agreed to the invitation of "Journey to the West", and other films did not agree.
After the Chinese film market rose, a New Year file was gradually derived, that is, the Lunar New Year.
This year's Spring Festival file is particularly intense, "Journey to the West", "Getting Better and Better. "Village Evening", "Love Is Not NG", "Together", "101 Proposals", and "Far Cry 2" will all be released during the New Year's holiday.
At the end of January, there will also be "007: Breaking the Sky", "The Adventure of the Pleasant Goat and the Big Big Wolf: The Year of the Snake", and "Deadly Tracking".
There are also "Detective Jack" and "The Lord of the Rings" in mid-February.
"Thai Embarrassment" is 1.3 billion and "Zodiac" is 900 million, which gives Chinese filmmakers great confidence, and everyone believes that their movies can make a lot of money.
More and more hot money is flowing in, and at the same time, more and more people want to become capital, want to become chess players.
On the second night after Li Shengyao returned to Yanjing, he took his assistant to a private restaurant in Dongcheng District, and then met Da Mi Mi and Zeng Jia.
The last time they met, Da Mi Mi and Zeng Jia were both wearing long skirts, and this time they were both wearing regular clothes.
Zeng Jia was wearing a blue fur vest jacket, black slacks, and black heels, looking quite capable.
There was heating in the house, and she seemed to be a little afraid of the heat, and her forehead was sweating.
Da Mi Mi wore a big red sweater, a pair of light gray skinny jeans, and a pair of white sneakers.
Da Mi Mi looks like a college student.
She doesn't usually exercise much, but her legs are not bad, slender and straight.
As for the curvature in front, it is even larger, and despite wearing a sweater, it is still very noticeable and can be seen to be grandiose.
Da Mi Mi stood at the door to greet her, the weather was too cold, she stomped her feet left and right, and she could see the fluctuations.
"Director Li, please come in."
As she spoke, she grabbed Li Shengyao's hand and walked inside.
She is a woman who can flirt with men, and her seemingly enthusiastic actions are accompanied by bursts of fragrance, which is a little more charming.
After sitting down, Li Shengyao's assistant was on his left, and Da Mi Mi was on his right.
The boiling hot pot popped, and Da Mi Mi gave him dishes from time to time, which was very gentle.
Zeng Jia kept touting and saying good things.
After eating, Da Mi Mi took out a tissue, then wiped Li Shengyao's mouth, and said softly at the same time: "Such a big person, rice grains will fall when eating." ”
She took care of him like Lee Shengyao's girlfriend.
Li Shengyao noticed that the assistant had a look of envy and smiled secretly in his heart.
He wasn't sure if Da Mi Mi was so good to his boyfriend in life, anyway, he didn't have such a relationship with Da Mi Mi, and Da Mi Mi was so attentive, he must have some schemes.
Zeng Jia and Da Mi Mi glanced at each other, and then said slowly: "Director Li, the plan you said last time, we discussed it for a long time after we went back, but we still don't think it's good, our studio is too lost." ”
Da Mi Mi nodded, grabbed Li Shengyao's hand, and said coquettishly: "Brother, how can I say that I am also a first-line actress now, 500 million and 50% of the shares are really too little, and now the salary is rising every year, and I still have a lot of endorsements."
How about 700 million?"
Zeng Jia continued: "Director Li, we have already started making movies. ”
When Li Shengyao heard this, he immediately thought of Da Mi Mi's movie, but he didn't show it on his face, but looked over in surprise, "You made a movie?"
"Well, I'm done."
"Who is the director and what subject?"
"Guo Xiaosi is a director, with a youth campus theme."
This movie is the famous "Little Times", and it is not accurate to say that one movie should be two movies.
"Childhood 12" started filming on November 17 last year, and the filming was completed on February 3 this year.
For both films, excluding the holidays, the filming part of the set took a total of 70 days.
When Li Shengyao heard this, he deliberately frowned, looking puzzled.
Seeing this, Da Mi Mi turned his gaze away a little embarrassed.
Guo Xiaosi was just a new generation of writers before, and he has not yet proven himself in the film industry.
Such a director is not at the same level as Li Shengyao, let alone Li Shengyao, any student majoring in directing will not be able to watch Guo Xiaosi's movies.
Zeng Jia understands this, but in the business field, he naturally tries to fight for his own interests.
"Director Li, the appeal of our power is not comparable to ordinary actresses.
is the recently released "Far Cry 2", with more investment and bigger scenes, but the box office is not even a fraction of "Far Cry 1".
We are definitely powerful and promising in the film industry. ”
Li Shengyao looked over and met Da Mi Mi's gaze.
Da Mi Mi puffed up his chest and smiled confidently, "Director Li, I had two movies last year. ”
After Da Mi Mi Mi became popular, he immediately appeared in two starring movies, one is "Far Cry", a low-cost horror film, because Da Mi Mi exposed his breasts and got a box office of 50 million.
The other is "Hold on to Love", which was released on the Chinese Lunar Calendar, and got a box office of 30 million on the day of Qixi Festival, and a box office of 6 million in the next 29 days.
In the past, no romance film got a high box office on the day of Qixi Festival, although this movie only got 30 million on that day, but it can be regarded as a good performance.
Da Mi Mi and Zeng Jia have seen other investors, and they all use these two achievements to give themselves a long face.
But one is 50 million, the other is more than 30 million, compared with Lee Shengyao's movie, it is not comparable.
Da Mi Mi's face was slightly hot, and when he met Li Shengyao's gaze, his heart was very weak, and he pretended to be calm on his face.
Li Shengyao smiled when he heard this, and then said: "During the period of "Far Cry", Ling was the most popular, and this movie can get 50 million, all thanks to you.
It's a pity that you're in too much of a hurry and shouldn't take on such a movie.
If you had a good movie at that time, maybe it would break 100 million.
The next "Hlod Live Love" is also a movie of poor quality, which consumes popularity in vain.
You, you've wasted a great opportunity to rise. ”
Da Mi Mi became a big hit, and then acted in "Painted Skin 2", playing soy sauce as a supporting role in it, and then Brother Kaizi asked her to play "Search".
It's a pity that she didn't seize the opportunity and fired Brother Kai Zi from the show.
If she had finished "Search" seriously at that time, her film path would have been completely different.
Hearing this, Da Mi Mi smiled awkwardly.
Li Shengyao continued: ""Little Times" is Guo Xiaosi's movie, he has made MVs before, but he has never made a feature, do you think his movies can get up? ”
Da Mi Mi answered, "He found a lot of stars." ”
"Except for you, the others are all third- and fourth-tier starlets, such a movie, I don't have to watch it to know that it is very bad, very bloody, even if it has a high box office, it has not improved the actors."
When Da Mi Mi heard this, he glanced at Li Shengyao dissatisfied.
She knew that Li Shengyao was telling the truth, but she was still unhappy.
Li Shengyao continued: "You can still jump in the TV drama circle, but it is impossible to get up in the film industry, so your value is limited, I will give 500 million, which is definitely high, you need to have a clear understanding of yourself, don't blindly raise the price." ”
When Da Mi Mi heard this, he glanced at Zeng Jia, and still felt that 500 million was less.
The two girls then continued to say good things, but Li Shengyao bit 500 million funds to death and did not change, so the two of them had to accept this amount.
Li Shengyao clapped his hands, "Okay, it's 500 million, I account for 50% of the shares, and I don't participate in the management of the studio, and our VAM agreement is still valid." ”
Da Mi Mi and Zeng Jia both nodded again and again.
Li Shengyao paused for a moment, then glanced at Da Mi Mi, "How many years do you have left in Da Mi Mi's current contract?"
"Another year and a half."
"Then let's make up a contract and sign it for eight years."
Da Mi Mi Studio relies on her, her contract is very important, a year and a half is naturally less than 500 million, at least five years.
In Li Shengyao's previous life, Jiaxing was established, and she made up an eight-year contract.
Hearing this, Da Mi Mi's eyes widened, "Signed for so long?"
"I invest money completely because of you, if you leave, then the money I invested will not be wasted, a year and a half is not enough, at least eight years.
You have a stake in the studio, and you will be a small boss in the future, what are you worried about?"
Da Mi Mi and Zeng Jia glanced at each other, she felt that it had been too long, but Zeng Jia did not say it.
And so the matter was settled.
Soon after, the party ended, and Da Mi Mi and Zeng Jia agreed to sign an agreement after the year.
Li Shengyao didn't care about the time, nodded in agreement.
Zeng Jia then left, and Li Shengyao's assistant also left.
Da Mi Mi said in a coquettish voice: "Brother, send me home." ”
Li Shengyao smiled: "I rarely drive in person, and you have made a lot of money this time." ”
got into the car and closed the door, Li Shengyao pounced, "Give me warm hands." ”
"It's seen."
"No, there's no one in this area."
After a while, Li Shengyao began to dribble, Da Mi Mi lowered his head and put his hands around his waist, "Brother, you said that "Little Times" is not good, so should I quit?" ”
"You have acted in the first two films, where can you quit, and then act, the reputation of "Little Times" is not good, but the box office should be very good."
"Can it be good?"
She looked up, the car was dark, only a little light from the street lamps, but her eyes were really beautiful, as if there were stars hidden in the night.
Li Shengyao's right hand was slightly forced, "Why don't we make a bet, if there are 300 million in "Little Times", you will accompany me for one night." ”
Hearing this, Da Mi Mi blinked, "Didn't I give it all to you?" ”
"Did you give it?"
"I let you touch it, I thought you treated me as your own."
"That's not enough."
Da Mi Mi pursed her lips and chuckled, she felt that she could hook Li Shengyao, and she was proud in her heart.
"Brother, I don't bet with you, I believe in you."
"Okay."
Li Shengyao didn't use his strength, he has been filming at high intensity all year round, and it is a good thing to have someone to amuse and relax.
Soon after, he sent Da Mi Mi home.
"Brother, I'll go back first, you pay attention to safety, and I wish you a happy New Year in advance."
"Don't talk so early, maybe we'll meet soon."
"I can't."
"Wait."
……
Li Shengyao was naturally not joking with Da Mi Mi, and the two of them soon met again.
Zeng Jia didn't come over this time.
At the China World Summit Wing, Li Shengyao and Han Sanping sat on the chairs, Guo Xiaosi, Chai Zhiping took Da Mi Mi, Guo Biting, Sister Hold, Guo Caijie, and his male pets, a group of almost ten people, standing on one side, "Director Li is good, Director Han is good, we are members of the crew of "Little Times", we wish the two directors a happy New Year and all the best in advance." ”
The production company of "Little Times" is Heli Chenguang, the owner of this company is a Hong Sandai, rich and connected, who only established the company in 2012 and then quickly invested in several films.
"Little Times" is their test of the waters.
Guo Xiaosi and Chai Zhiping were responsible for finding actors and preparing for film production, and these two people also invested a lot of money.
This time, Li Shengyao and Han Sanping were found, naturally for the sake of the movie's scheduling.
As long as Li Shengyao and Han Sanping nod, then China Film and Fenghua will support "Little Times", and it will be absolutely no problem for this movie to premiere and get a high-ranking film.
Li Shengyao and Han Sanping had already passed the anger and knew that the boss of He Li Chenguang was the third generation, and he was willing to give face.
However, Chai Zhiping and Guo Xiaosi didn't know that at this time, the two of them sat down with the actors, which was very polite.
After eating, Guo Xiaosi whispered to Li Shengyao: "Director Li, I am your student, you must support me." ”
Li Shengyao looked at Guo Xiaosi speechlessly.
I can't say this nonsense, I can't say that after reading a few articles, I am my student.
There is no such reason in this world.
"Director Guo, you are polite, we all know your talent, you are a movie wizard, you and I are peers, but it is not a teacher-student relationship."
Da Mi Mi sat on the side and glanced at Li Shengyao.
I didn't say that last night, and I said that "Little Times" was rubbish.
She then felt that Guo Biting lowered her head, not daring to look at Li Shengyao, and she couldn't help but be suspicious in her heart.
What's going on?
Do these two have one leg?
She whispered tentatively: "Biting, do you know Director Li?" ”
"Yes, but he shouldn't know me."
Guo Biting looked up at Li Shengyao, and then quickly lowered her head.
It's greasy.
Seeing this, Da Mi Mi felt a little unhappy in his heart, Li Shengyao was a high-spirited guy, but he was provoking girls everywhere.
She planned to ignore Li Shengyao today, so as not to take advantage of him.
Guo Xiaosi didn't know about Da Mi Mi's situation, and whispered about his conditions, such as writing a script for Li Shengyao, selling the network copyright of "Little Times" to Fenghua Video, his male pets can support Fenghua Film and Television Company's film and television dramas at any time, and he can help Fenghua make movies and TV series.
Li Shengyao listened to Guo Xiaosi's words and frowned slightly, this guy said a lot, all of which were useless conditions.
Can you give some real benefits?
Chai Zhiping understood Li Shengyao, reached out and gently poked Guo Xiaosi's waist, and then said: "Director Li, "Little Times" will be released in Fenghua Cinema, and our producer only needs to share 30%. ”
The average production company can take 33 to 35 percent of the box office from the theater chain.
It's not much, but it's money.
Li Shengyao smiled with satisfaction, "Mr. Chai is magnificent. ”
Guo Xiaosi was stunned, quickly came back to his senses, and then began to praise Li Shengyao.
said that "Dalian by the Sea" can win awards, can win high box office, can enter "Sight and Hearing" and "Film Manual", and constantly toasts.
Guo Xiao's four sons are short and he always drinks, giving Li Shengyao a feeling of coercing underage drinking.
He hurriedly waved his hand, "Director Guo, don't be polite with me, don't drink, let's talk casually." ”
So Guo Xiaosi and Chai Zhiping continued to blow, and even Han Sanping followed suit.
Li Shengyao listened to their praise, and the smile on his face kept coming.
is very sober in his heart, the box office of "Dalian by the Sea" will not be high, because he has won the Palme d'Or twice before, it is unlikely that he will win the grand prize, and it would be good to get a small award.
