Chapter 267: Four Women

In the first part of Tom's classic Mission: Impossible series, Tom's box office share in addition to his salary reached an astonishing 22%.

Later, in the second part of Mission Impossible, Tom even asked for 30% of the box office.

According to the calculation of Hollywood's professional box office share ratio, the producer and distributor of a film can only get about 55% of the box office revenue in total, and the 30% share ratio means that the revenue of Cruise Productions will exceed Paramount, which is much larger than it, and this also led to the later break between Tom and Paramount.

There's no way, Tom's bite is too ruthless, Mission Impossible 2 has a global box office of $545 million, and Paramount can only get 25 percent, which is $136 million, and what is the production cost of Mission Impossible 2, which is $125 million.

In other words, Paramount made a blockbuster film that grossed over $500 million, and they only made $11 million at the box office.

The input-output is completely disproportionate.

Compared to the high investment of $125 million and the huge risks, the profit of $11 million is not even stable money.

On the contrary, it was Brother Tom who earned more than 160 million yuan with this film, and Paramount completely worked for Brother Tom, the host and guest were completely reversed, and a large company like Paramount was naturally unwilling.

Qiao Feng was also unwilling to do such an injustice, especially in the face of a vampire like Brother Tom, so he started negotiations with Brother Tom for the next drama before the filming of Top Gun was finished, but it was delayed again and again, and after the post-production of Top Gun was completed, Qiao Feng had to suppress it and not let it be released.

As a result, Tom Tom actually made up his mind to wait for Top Gun to be released before negotiating a new film contract.

Thinking beautifully, Qiao Feng thought unhappily.

"Tell him that we can increase his Top Gun salary by 20 percent, sign the contract if he agrees, and if he doesn't, we will choose another actor and let him and his agent watch it." Qiao Feng said coldly.

"Okay, Mr. Joe, I'll go out if it's okay." Shi Nansheng agreed with a smile.

Qiao Feng nodded, and Shi Nansheng turned to leave.

If it weren't for the fact that he knew that Top Gun would be a box office hit, Tom Cruise would become the spokesperson of European and American youth idols with a handsome face, and then he would be famous on the Avenue of Fame, and he would have a huge effect on the box office of the new film, Qiao Feng was too lazy to ink with Tom Cruise.

His new film is not a film like Top Gun that requires close cooperation from the Pentagon's Department of Defense, nor is it a film that involves many secrets, aircraft carriers, and aircraft, and cannot involve foreign actors, not non-American actors.

His new film is a feature film, and the background of a story can be changed to a Hong Kong film, and anyone can play it.

Walking to the window and looking out of the window, Qiao Feng flashed in his mind one Hong Kong actor after another.

I'm afraid that the condition I gave for a 20% increase in the salary base of Top Gun will not satisfy his huge appetite.

If it doesn't work, I'll have to re-select the actors.

If you want to choose this time, you must definitely choose from the actors here in Hong Kong.

Using Hong Kong actors is cheap and easy to use.

The highest salaries are only three or four million, and the first-line actors in the United States are three or four million, and the top ones are four or five million, but they are dollars, and when converted into Hong Kong dollars, they are more than 10 million and 20 million, and in Hong Kong, the salary of this person alone is enough to make a big-budget movie, and even now Hong Kong's local films have no investment of more than 20 million except for the new Shushan Swordsman in the first two years, of course, if you count the publicity costs, then you can find a few.

"Xingzai, do you know what the boss called us for today?"

Two days ago, Qiao Feng's agency signed actors came to the company one after another.

The conference room was star-studded, full of big stars, big directors, I had never gathered so together on weekdays, and one or two didn't know why Qiao Feng called them today, Wu Mengda and Zhou Xingchi, who he knew best, got together and whispered.

"Da Ge, you are not as well-informed as me, you don't even know that I can know." Zhou Xingchi rolled his eyes angrily and said.

"It's huh, too." Wu Mengda nodded thoughtfully, then turned his head to look around, and then his eyes lit up and said: "Andy is here, the boss values him the most, I'll go and ask him."

Zhou Xingchi grabbed Wu Mengda, who was about to get up, and said in a low voice: "Forget it, Brother Hua, I saw him come when I came in just now, and he didn't know.

Looking at Zhou Xingchi's line of sight, Wu Mengda's whole person was a spirit: "If you want to die, you, it's not so harmful to me, don't you see that everyone is hiding except for saying hello, and no one dares to come up and talk to them? It's too late to hide, you still want me to take the initiative to find it, I recruited you to provoke you."

"Hey, hey." Zhou Xingchi laughed evilly.

At the end of their line of sight, a row of chairs separated quite wide was placed against the wall, in the middle was Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong on the right, Ye Qianwen on the left, and on the further left of Ye Qianwen, the chair was empty and no one was sitting, but next to the chair was the window, and a Qianying supported the window with one hand and looked out of the window quietly.

Just like Wu Mengda said, except for the necessary greetings after coming in, no one else approached the four of them.

And the four women were all unambiguously silent, and the air around them seemed to freeze.

Wu Mengda came relatively late, he didn't see everything, in fact, it wasn't that the four of them didn't speak, at the beginning, Lin Qingxia, Ye Qianwen, Zhong Chuhong, and the three of them also talked and laughed when they came in first.

It's just that after Guan Zhilin came in, Lin Qingxia and Ye Qianwen all greeted her, but when Zhong Chuhong didn't see anything and ignored it, the air froze a little in a flash.

Zhong Chuhong continued to talk to Lin Qingxia and Ye Qianwen, but the two of them looked at Guan Zhilin and Zhong Chuhong were silent.

Among the four people, Zhong Chuhong and Guan Zhilin were the two who started with Qiao Feng, so these two were the most incompatible, one was that his man was robbed by a fox spirit, and the other was that he thought that the other party did not back down to have Lin Qingxia and Ye Qianwen.

Anyway, it's angry to look at each other.

Lin Qingxia and Ye Qianwen consciously are latecomers, and they are also conscious, and they don't want to get involved with the contradictions between Zhong Chuhong and Guan Zhilin.

Although they have a good relationship with Zhong Chuhong, if they continue to talk to Zhong Chuhong under such circumstances, and Zhong Chuhong and Guan Zhilin face each other coldly, it seems that the three of them are isolating Guan Zhilin together.

Not only did it make it difficult for Qiao Feng to let the other people present watch the jokes, so he simply didn't do it.

So there was a scene that Wu Mengda saw that the four people were in a daze.

"Everyone, you're all here, I'll be here when we're done..."

After a while, as the voice came, Qiao Feng walked into the conference room, said half with a smile, and then saw the four cold-faced beauties with distinct distinctions, and then the laughter and words came to an abrupt end.
