In Shanghai, the lanterns are coming on.
As the largest and most prosperous city in China, the scenery on both sides of the Huangpu River in Shanghai has always been pleasant.
Lai Haijin was sitting in the coffee shop, looking at the river view not far away, looking at the high-rise buildings, and sighed, "When I was young, I used to dream of buying a house here early. But now I know , without great opportunities, it would be a crime for ordinary people to even dream about it.”
"Haha, Lao Lai, you still don't have enough money to buy a house?" Wen Fan, who was dressed like a young man, said with a smile, "You can buy three to five houses in Tomson now, right?"
Tomson is no longer a sky-high-priced luxury house in Huangpu River, but with an average price of 150,000, buying one is at least 70 to 80 million, and three or five units are at least 300 million.
The beauty sitting next to Lai Haijin unconsciously had her eyes shining, and she subconsciously moved closer to him.
On the other hand, the more beautiful and younger girl next to Wen Fan didn't pay any attention to her, she just curled up next to him like a kitten.
This is also natural.
Wen Fan, who is only 32 years old this year, not only has his father a well-known real estate businessman in Shanghai, but also entered the entertainment industry after graduating from university. The vice president of Niu Film and Television and the second largest shareholder.
Wen Fan himself has assets of about 3 billion, plus he is handsome. Over the years, countless beautiful female stars have thrown themselves into his arms, and countless women want to become Mrs. Wen.
Although the women before have failed, every newcomer will feel that they will succeed.
Lai Haijin smiled and said, "Young Master Wen, as a person in the entertainment industry, no matter how rich you are, can you compare to company bosses like you?"
"That's really not necessarily true." Wen Fan said, "For example, if Mr. Chu Liuxiang writes two or three more super classics like "The Gift of Room No. 7", my foundation will be considered valuable in his eyes. What?"
Wen Fan didn't belittle himself too much.
"The Gift of Room No. 7" film, television, books, etc. combined, the overall revenue will exceed 1 billion yuan, which is already a certainty.
If Chu Liuxiang's subsequent novels were all financed and filmed by himself, he would earn even more money.
Is it difficult to earn RMB 3 billion in revenue after two or three projects
Lai Haijin agreed with his point of view, "Theoretically, this is true, but Mr. Chu has no interest in these business operations. You are really lucky this time. I didn't know that he was willing to write the script of a TV series. .”
"Haha, isn't this all thanks to teachers Yiyi and Lu Xiaofeng?" Wen Fan was also very happy, "otherwise there are so many rich people, why would they write for us Mavericks Film and Television?"
After a pause, Wen Fan said: "As for the price, Mr. Chu, please be assured... Well, I have prepared a one-time price of 30 million. If the ratings exceed 3, I will add a red envelope of 10 million, and this will be extended to 10% of the ratings. I am willing to pay for my 70 million red envelope!"
Lai Haijin smiled in his heart.
Wen Fan is not an ordinary second-generation ancestor, he is a very shrewd Shanghainese.
30 million for a TV series script seems like a lot, but is it really that much
Teacher Chu Liuxiang has written two movie scripts so far, "Love Letter" and "The Gift of Room No. 7".
The situation of "Love Letter" is special. Teacher Chu Liuxiang is a shareholder of the script, and has earned about 30 million to 50 million so far.
But in "The Gift of Room No. 7", the situation is different.
According to information revealed by Shanhai.com, teacher Chu Liuxiang received 10% of the box office profits, which is the same as Zhu Mei's directing team.
The global box office of "The Gift of Room No. 7" in the two weeks after its release was 2 billion yuan. How much will it be when it is released
At least 3 billion, maybe 4 billion!
Even if the box office is 3 billion, based on an average of about 30%, it is still a box office profit of 900 million, so Teacher Chu Liuxiang will get 90 million.
Note that what they signed is a share of box office profits, not a share of overall expenses.
If expenses are included, the production costs of hundreds of millions and the publicity costs of tens of millions of dollars are diluted, and it is not certain whether it can make money.
Zheng Rongrong, a generous and generous person, would definitely not let them suffer a loss, so the contract was for a share of the box office, and all expenses had nothing to do with them.
If someone gets a movie script worth 90 million, is it too high for you to get a TV series script worth 30 million
It’s definitely not high!
Just like Wen Fan said, it doesn't matter how much money you have, but you also need Teacher Chu Liuxiang to be willing to write.
TV series often have dozens of episodes, which is much more complicated than a movie script.
As for the red envelopes linked to ratings, Wen Fan is also very smart.
If it could really reach a 10% ratings, Wen Fan would be willing to give it the 70 million red envelope.
But in fact it is simply impossible.
It was fine ten years ago.
Today's TV series can reach a ratings of 5%, which is considered a super drama. It is not easy to break through 3%.
It's a pity that Lai Haijin doesn't know any scripts now, and Lai Haijin can't discuss the casting with Wen Fan.
If it hadn't been for the idea put forward by Mavericks Film and Television, Lai Haijin wouldn't have known that Buyi Yi could succeed.
This is Teacher Chu Liuxiang!
Teacher Chu Liuxiang, who is known as the most powerful script writer in China’s new generation of film and television circles!
If I had known I could get one of his scripts, what would Maverick Films be like
I can go directly to Weibo Film and Television and ask them to pay more and give me more benefits!
…
When Lai Haijin left with Little Star, Gu Yingjing, who had been like a kitten just now, began to squirm in Wen Fan's arms.
"Young Master Wen, I saw the old man's attitude just now. He has some ideas~~" Gu Yingjing said softly.
"Oh? What did you see?" Wen Fan put a hand into her clothes and asked with a smile.
"He seems to want to take the initiative in the entire TV series." Gu Yingjing said, "Originally, you had agreed with him that Buyi Yi would be the heroine, but now that you heard that it was teacher Chu Liuxiang's script, He’s a little different.”
Gu Yingjing is a graduate of Shanghai Opera, and of course she is more than just a vase.
As for those vases, Wen Fan would throw them away after playing with them for two days at most, and he would never keep them around.
Seeing this, Wen Fan nodded, "You read that right, that's what he thinks. I also think he wants to define all the important roles in it."
"How can that work?" Gu Yingjing frowned and said, "We pay for it, we produce it, and the final revenue pressure is also on us. But in the end, he gets all the benefits and doesn't have to take responsibility. Why?"
"Just because Buyiyi can rely on Lu Xiaofeng to get Teacher Chu Liuxiang's script!" Wen Fan smiled.
"Can't we? Can't we just go to Chu Liuxiang?" Gu Yingjing said.
"This matter is very taboo." Wen Fan shook his head, "Except for Qiantang Evening News, Zhu Mei and Lu Xiaofeng, no one can contact Chu Liuxiang. How can we guarantee success if we go rashly? We can't even contact him You don’t even know your temper and preferences!”
"What should we do?"
"You don't have to worry about this, I have my own opinion." A glimmer of light flashed in Wen Fan's eyes, "I promise to support you, and I will definitely do it."
"Thank you, Mr. Wen~~I will repay you well tonight~~" Gu Yingjing's face shone with joy.
She has always had confidence in herself.
If she hadn't been unlucky, she wouldn't be any worse than little beauties like Buyiyi!
Well now, after working hard for so long, I finally got this opportunity!
Even in this TV series, she is still Buyiyi's supporting role, but who says supporting roles can't be brilliant
Just wait, Buyiyi, you are my first stepping stone!
I can definitely succeed! !
