Chapter 378: He still has to thank us
Su Zhe originally didn't plan to shoot "Wulin Gaiden" so early.
Because it can't be sold at a high price.
After all, this is a low-budget costume sitcom, and it didn't sell too high a price in its previous life.
In this world, Su Zhe didn't expect any platform to see its potential in advance and buy the copyright at a high price.
But if it is sold at a low price, he thinks of the achievements and influence of "Wulin Gaiden", and he feels that it is too much of a loss.
He even felt that if there was really no one to discern, he would break his principles and sign a VAM contract.
In other TV series, he is still worried about the water and soil, and pays attention to the safety of the bag, but "Wulin Gaiden" is worth his bet!
But he didn't expect the opportunity to come so suddenly.
Because of the successful cooperation that has been in the oil depot, and seeing his creative attitude of not wanting to make money in order to ensure quality, he is full of confidence in him, and he is willing to pay as long as it is a martial arts drama without reading the script and planning book.
And it's still paid in advance!
You must know that "Wulin Gaiden" has a total of 81 episodes, and 20 million in a single episode is 1.62 billion! Far exceeded the sales record of Huaxia TV series.
Even if he doesn't star, 15 million in a single episode is 1.2 billion!
As long as Su Zhe is not stupid, of course he wants to finalize the contract directly:
"Rest assured, I am confident that "Wulin Gaiden" will become the most successful martial arts drama."
But the oil depot is not stupid, and when they heard Su Zhe propose that "Wulin Gaiden" has a total of 81 episodes, they also hesitated-
Su Zhe has always been very disciplined, insisting on the plot of not water, and the TV series has a maximum of forty or fifty episodes, so while repeatedly breaking the price record of a single episode, he has not surpassed his peers in terms of total price.
Now suddenly said that 81 episodes are also a long story compared to those colleagues who remember water, do you want to take the opportunity to make money?
smashed out 1.6 billion, anyone has to mumble, if you want to evaluate the TV series in depth, read the script first.
Su Zhe understands it very well, but he can't let them review the script - otherwise, seeing the sitcom, as well as the plots such as rap, crossing, and the chicken king competition, it is impossible to make so much money.
So he simply took out the usual methods used by traffic - no script, no planning, no lineup, just my name, how much is it worth?
Hey, it's called "Kou can go, I can go too".
He motioned to Zhang Hongwei and said:
"Buying and selling is not benevolent, Mr. Su is now cooperating well with penguins and oranges, and there is no shortage of buyers."
When the oil depot saw it, he didn't dare to mention the script, so he immediately started negotiations, but he planned to see the broadcast results of dramas such as "Yitian" first.
Su Zhe is not in a hurry, and when the three dramas are broadcast, he will be able to sit more firmly in Diaoyutai, and maybe he can raise the price.
After leaving the oil depot, Zhang Hongwei is also very confident:
"After the three dramas are broadcast, I will release the news of "Wulin Gaiden", and they will know that they are in a hurry, and they have to beg us."
Su Zhe nodded and said with a smile:
"I don't have to worry about Mr. Zhang's errands, I can also prepare the crew, and start filming after signing the contract."
"You already have a script?" Zhang Hongwei looked at Su Zhe a little strangely, why don't you let the oil depot read the script?
Su Zhe didn't hide it from him:
"Because it's a sitcom, I'm afraid they don't have vision and don't believe me."
This is a bit of a contract fraud, but Su Zhe believes that when "Wulin Gaiden" is launched, the oil depot will have to thank him sincerely.
Zhang Hongwei was stunned and shouted:
Scenario ......
He tried to lower his voice, as if he didn't dare to let others know about something wrong, and whispered the next two words:
"Comedy?"
"yes, is there a problem?" Su Zhe looked at him curiously.
Zhang Hongwei rubbed his face, adjusted his mood for a long time, and asked:
"In my memory, sitcoms weren't that valuable, were they? And the hottest sitcoms are all set in modern settings, as if there are no costumes? ”
Indeed, most of the popular sitcoms in the previous life are also with modern backgrounds, such as "I Love My Home", "Family with Children", "Love Apartment", etc., as well as foreign "Friends", "The Big Bang Theory", etc.
As for the costume sitcoms, in addition to the popularity of "Wulin Gaiden", "Dragon Gate Dart Game" and "Legend of Magpie Knife Gate" are only small hits.
And in this world, there is not even a costume sitcom with a splash, Zhang Hongwei's reaction is very normal and real-
He has never seen a single successful example, how can he believe it? couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"It's not just that the oil depot has no vision, but I'm also worried. Can it really be hot? ”
Su Zhe smiled, didn't speak, put his left hand against his chin, thinking about something.
But thinking of his past achievements, Zhang Hongwei had to be superstitious and convince himself:
"I believe you, genius is used to break the rules, and no one has succeeded before because they are not you."
Su Zhe put down his hand, turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile:
"What I'm struggling with now is whether I should star in "Wulin Gaiden"?"
"Why not?" After Zhang Hongwei no longer struggled with whether he could succeed, he immediately returned to normal and calculated for him, "81 episodes, you can earn an extra 400 million if you appear!" ”
Su Zhefeng said lightly:
"I don't lack the 400 million, otherwise I would have starred in "Tianlong" and "Deer Ding". I'm thinking, acting in a sitcom, it's too easy to stereotype actors. ”
Zhang Hongwei immediately shook his head and said:
"Mr. Su, this is a fallacy. An actor's strength is not good, but sitcoms mainly rely on scripts and lines to make him famous and create lovable characters. Later, if he couldn't meet a better script, could he still complain about the stereotype? ”
Su Zhe couldn't help but nodded, thinking of the various actors who starred in "Wulin Gaiden" in their previous lives, their acting skills were strong, and few people were stereotyped.
And those who are stereotyped by comedy roles are not good at acting in the first place. For example, a certain He, there is no Zeng Xiaoxian, he doesn't even have a chance to be stereotyped, and he directly finds out this person.
Su Zhe figured it out and said with a smile:
"In that case, I'll act. I really like this show and want to play a role. ”
He didn't lie, he didn't know how many times he watched "Wulin Gaiden" in his previous life, if he had the opportunity to leave a figure in this classic, why not?
Now that there is no shortage of money, isn't that the joy of being an actor?
And the main role of "Wulin Gaiden", there is only one suitable for him - pearl jade white jade soup, merry (crossed) thief Shengbai Zhantang!
Zhang Hongwei saw his energetic appearance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
"It's still Mr. Su's high realm, I just think about 400 million yuan, but what people want is to create classic characters! Or maybe they're big bosses and artists? ”
"I'll give you the script in a few days." Su Zhe thought about it, he couldn't shoot in a hurry, otherwise it would be leaked immediately, and instructed, "Finalize the contract first, and then prepare the crew." ”
Zhang Hongwei nodded and reminded:
"Then at least wait until the end of the year to start filming, Long Aotian's funds have been returned, and the current projects are only Zhu Guosong's "Jianghu Grocery Store" and Sun Mei's "You at the Same Table", and the rest of the money can't be used to eat interest in the bank, right?"
Su Zhe teased:
"Mr. Zhang, are you urging me to go to work?"
Zhang Hongwei laughed:
"No way, who made Mr. Su the soul of our dragon Aotian?"
Su Zhe thought about it, he was almost rested, and he couldn't really retire:
"Okay, but the three TV series are all full, and if I make a TV series again, won't I just beat myself up?"
Zhang Hongwei said with a smile:
"Movies are also available, and many fans are looking forward to it."
"The summer file is about to pass, and the Spring Festival file still has "Tang Detective", and there is no good schedule in the middle."
The schedule has too much impact on the box office of the movie, and Su Zhe didn't plan to go against the trend, it would hurt money too much.
Zhang Hongwei nodded and said:
"If Mr. Su doesn't have any inspiration, I have a project here. Huaxia Film and Television prepared a platter movie to celebrate the New Year's Day, and wanted Mr. Su to take the lead in writing one. ”
Platter movies?
Su Zhe is quite disgusted with this movie mode, if you watch a short drama, why don't you go to a certain sound?
The charm of a movie is to lead the audience into a world, a story, which must take a while to obtain.
Of course, skits also have the charm of skits, but the fast-paced excitement is completely different from the long-term immersion experience.
He didn't want to agree, so he shirked:
"It's only a month before the National Day, and they're only starting to shoot now, can't they catch up? If I fool the audience, I won't be scolded. ”
Zhang Hongwei gloated:
"The filming has already been completed, and the schedule has been scheduled, but the male and female protagonists of one of the short films collapsed, and now they are dying! If you want to say who can save the scene in the circle, only Mr. Su is you. ”
Su Zhe filmed "Tumor" in a month, and the reputation of "Fast Gunner" has become famous.
Su Zhe laughed:
"The collapse of celebrities is the biggest risk of film and television investment. By the way, who collapsed the house? Why haven't I heard of a big name collapse recently? ”
Zhang Hongwei thought about it and said two names at random: "It seems to be called Gao Yuyu and Qiao Wenjun." ”
"Who?!" Su Zhe was a little confused, and immediately felt that this matter was related to Yan Xiling, and immediately called her.
After Yan Xiling heard his question, she replied with a smile:
"Isn't Zheng Feng arrested, I learned that there are some videos of Gao Yuyu and Qiao Wenjun in his computer, and he is trying to expose them. I didn't expect Huaxia Film and Television to know so early. ”
Huaxia Film and Television, as a state-owned enterprise, of course, has more well-informed news, and they knew it in advance before the media exposed it.
Just like a certain Yi Feng was canceled by the party before he was exposed, the ban came earlier than the exposure.
But it doesn't matter if the party cancels a program, how can a platter movie be released without a short film?
No wonder they're in a hurry.
But Su Zhe is more curious:
"What the hell is the video on the computer?"
"I'm embarrassed to say, it's explosive anyway." Yan Xiling is mysterious.
Su Zhe was speechless:
"I've already imagined how explosive it is, no wonder Zheng Feng is holding Gao Yuyu, this guy can really bear it."
Yan Xiling laughed for a long time before saying:
"I can guess what you imagined, but the video may be more explosive than you think."
Su Zhe: ???
Mom, don't dare to think about it!
Yan Xiling is high-spirited:
"In short, the dirty water they poured on Wu Peipei can be washed away quickly, and they can also take the opportunity to market and win the sympathy of netizens."
Su Zhe nodded, in a good mood, and looked at Zhang Hongwei:
"Haha, then I really saved the scene."
Otherwise, although he didn't do anything wrong, he also offended Huaxia Film and Television. After all, it is a semi-official organization, and it can't be successful, but the bad thing is very simple, and it is better to give favors than to offend.
Zhang Hongwei added:
"It's not in vain! Huaxia Film and Television is willing to transfer 20% of Zheng Feng's investment to Long Aotian. ”
"Okay." As soon as Su Zhe happily agreed, he heard Yan Xiling on his mobile phone stopping him.
Yan Xiling is very resolute:
"Investment is investment, remuneration is remuneration, even if Huaying Group has to give money, I don't want to prostitute for nothing!"
Su Zhe approved of her, so next, Yan Xiling discussed with Zhang Hongwei and Huaxia Film and Television many times, and finally finalized the contract.
Long Aotian was responsible for forming the crew and shooting a short film of about half an hour, starring Su Zhe, accounting for 40% of the total investment.
And Su Zhe, as the screenwriter and starring of the short film, is paid 100 million, which is paid by Long Aotian.
Su Zhe was a little puzzled by this condition:
"Isn't that what I pay myself? Left hand for right hand, what is the need? ”
Yan Xiling explains:
"The 100 million remuneration is included in the cost of Long Aotian and increases the amount of investment, otherwise how can it be possible to give 40% to Long Aotian? It's almost half of Huaxia Film and Television. And there's one more bonus......"
She paused, flipped out her phone, and found a hot search-
#华影筹备 "Me and Huaxia", 100 million yuan to invite Su Zhe#
Su Zhe looked at the comments below:
[Amazing, Huaying thinks that Su Zhe is worth 100 million in salary, and he is the most valuable star in the country! ] 】
[Before, Su Zhe paid himself 100 million yuan, and he still had a feeling of talking to himself, but he didn't expect that now even Huaying will admit it. 】
What do you know? The circle has long recognized this salary, and many companies are willing to invite him with 100 million, but he will not go at all when he sees that the script is not good. Su Zhecai is not short of money. 】
[Awesome, 100 million won't go, should I say that he is too principled, or too rich? 】
[Have you forgotten that his previous movie salary was 100 million, but this time it is a short film, only 1/5 of a movie! ] Equivalent to 500 million salaries! 】
[This is the row of the first superstar in China. 】
Su Zhe suddenly:
"Sister Yan, you will take advantage of it."
Yan Xiling laughed:
"Anyway, everyone knows that you are rich, and you don't care about hyping up the salary to cause hatred of the rich. Just use this exaggerated salary to determine your status as the number one superstar in China! ”
Su Zhe smiled and smacked:
"Is China the No. 1 superstar? Isn't it a little fast? ”
It's been less than three years since he became popular.
Yan Xiling shook her head:
"Superstars don't rely on seniority, but any star who can touch the throne must be extremely dazzling for a period of time, covering the light of everyone else."
Su Zhe nodded, and shook his head again:
"My achievements in the music industry are enough, but now is not the era when music superstars dominate the entertainment industry. In film and television, although I had good grades, I didn't do it first. Claiming to be the number one superstar, I'm afraid many people are not convinced, right? ”
Yan Xiling hesitated:
"There's no need to care about the noise, as long as the momentum is enough......"
Su Zhe interrupted her with a smile:
"You can't sit on the throne by relying on fans, and the first is not said by yourself. Don't worry, don't hype it just yet, wait until the end of the year. ”
Yan Xiling looked at him.
Su Zhe smiled confidently:
The movie "Tang Detective", the TV "Wulin Gaiden"!
The future is in his hands.
After Yan Xiling left, Su Zhe began to retreat, concentrating on writing the script of "Wulin Gaiden" and short films.
The former still has time, but the latter is in a hurry.
Su Zhe went through the more famous platter movies in his previous life - the motherland, hometown, and parents, adding up to more than ten short films.
There are no particularly good short films in this, but there are probably a few that are quite good: "Hello BJ" (Ge Y), "The Last Lesson" (Fan W), "Magic Brush Ma Liang" (Shen T), "Poetry" (Zhang Zi Y) and so on.
Among them, only the protagonist of "Magic Brush Ma Liang" is suitable for Su Zhe to play.
"I don't have a choice."
Su Zhe scratched his head, wrote the script of this short film, and pondered for a moment:
"It's a pretty dense laugh, that's it!"
As a comedy short film, it is enough to make the audience laugh over and over again.
It can also add the content of rural construction to the topic, which can be regarded as an excellent proposition composition.
Of course, if compared with the salary of 100 million, it seems to be a bit watery......
But it doesn't matter, it's normal to have some premiums for saving the scene, that's it, Huaying has to thank him!
