"Producer?" Chen Chu was suddenly startled, and then laughed loudly, "Are you a producer? Boy, stop being funny. A little intern assistant dares to pretend to be a producer. Director Zhang, you You can’t really believe this guy’s lies..."
Seeing Zhang Xiaoke's serious expression, Chen Chu frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, and a hint of questioning when he looked at Zhang Xiaoke. Zhang Xiaoke nodded and slowly said, "Just now, Mr. Shu from Longteng sent news that Mr. Qin Hao will replace her as the producer of "The Youngest" and will be responsible for all matters, including personnel transfer arrangements. The allocation of funds and even the changes of actors are all handled by him alone."
"How is this possible? Isn't this guy just an assistant? How could..." Chen Chu was completely dumbfounded. It wasn't that the producer was really awesome, but that he really didn't expect that he was just a driver's assistant just now. How the extra suddenly turned into the producer of "The Youngest" made him unable to react for a moment.
"Big star, I'm sorry, but this producer never said that I was a driver's assistant. You are looking down on others and thinking wildly. Do you blame me?" Qin Hao's face was full of a joking smile, playfully Said, "As a producer, I will inform you now that you and Xia Zixun have been fired from the crew of "The Youngest", so you can get out now!"
"Get out? Tell me to get out? Boy, do you think it will be great if you become a producer? You dare to talk to me like this?" Chen Chusenran said with a sneer, "You can also want me to leave the crew, the contract I signed before is all There are liquidated damages. As long as you pay the liquidated damages, I will leave immediately. The liquidated damages are not much, Xia Zixun and I only add up to 50 million, so you pay it."
The liquidated damages of 50 million were not worth mentioning in Qin Hao's eyes. If it meant increasing investment in the crew, he wouldn't care, but if it was to give Chen Chu and Xia Zixun, he wouldn't even pay a penny. You must know that "The Youngest" itself is a youth campus theme, and there are no additional post-production special effects. The real money-consuming thing is probably the actors' remuneration. All investments in today's film industry can be said to be small. It's probably around 70 to 80 million, not even 100 million.
Now Chen Chuxia and Zixun ask for 50 million in liquidated damages. The 50 million is reserved to increase investment and speed up the filming process. Why should it be given to these two guys? This liquidated damages, plus the remuneration of the two people, is almost the amount of investment of the entire crew.
Of course, with Chen Chu's family background, he wouldn't care about this small amount of liquidated damages, but he just wanted to feel disgusted with Qin Hao. He, a person with such a good reputation, was so embarrassed by Qin Hao, it could even be said to be humiliating. If he doesn't take away 50 million and doesn't let Qin Hao suffer, how can he lose face? Moreover, even if Qin Hao compromised and gave him 50 million, he didn't intend for the matter to end just like that. He had many ways to target the crew and even the Longteng Company behind it.
"Fifty million? It's not a small amount, but it's not much. If you calculate the penalty as five to ten times the current market price, it's not excessive and acceptable." Qin Hao thought for a moment and gave the answer.
When Zhang Xiaoke heard this from the side, he immediately became anxious. After all, he was also a famous director. He licked his face and went to talk to Shu Ya. Then he barely managed to get an investment of 80 million. Now this young young boy can change roles with just one sentence. They have to pay a liquidated damages of 50 million. It would be great to invest such a large sum of money in a movie, why should we give it to them? What's more, the budget of 80 million yuan is already very careful, and now the male and female protagonists have to be changed again. This is a huge amount of money in terms of remuneration, and Zhang Xiaoke is heartbroken.
It's just that heartache is heartache, but he also understands that there is no way to ease this matter, whether through legal channels or privately. Qin Hao insists on letting Chen Chu and Xia Zixun get out. According to the contract, he must accompany them as liquidated damages, but he will not let them If they get out, they will already be torn apart because of their grudge-holding mentality. There will definitely be various kinds of non-cooperation in the future, and the show will basically be ruined.
Therefore, today is a dilemma. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. Qin Hao's choice is the best. The only blame he can blame is that he should not have agreed to let Chen Chu star because of Chen Chu's threatening words. After all, Shu Ya was in charge Long Teng had not been familiar with many people in the circle for several months, and did not know Chen Chu's true reputation, otherwise he would not have agreed to Zhang Xiaoke's suggestion to use Chen Chu as the male protagonist.
Chen Chu's face was filled with a disdainful smile. He thought Qin Hao's words meant he was timid and wanted to pay for it. He sneered and said proudly, "What? Do you think you want to pay the money happily? In fact, this There is no room for change between us. It’s only 50 million. For me, this amount of money is just a month’s expenses. I don’t care at all. But, you want me to spend all of it. It's impossible to get rid of that. Kicked me out of the crew, injured my bodyguard, and humiliated me. I can't pretend it never happened. Let's do this. If you make the decision, give me a chance to have dinner with Miss Xiao Yuanyuan Xiao. If you have the chance, I will spare you 10 million, how about that?"
It is said that they are having dinner together, but as a normal man, he understands that Chen Chu definitely has no good intentions. What's more, this is the entertainment industry. For a meal of 10 million, even the female stars in the superstar ranks may not have this price. , not to mention Xiao Yuanyuan, who is just a newcomer who has not yet debuted. It is obviously self-evident what she wants to do with this money.
"Ten million, a dinner? Tsk, tsk, Yuanyuan, have you seen that the price is already so high before you even debut?" Qin Hao smiled and smacked his lips at Xiao Yuanyuan, his words full of ridicule. mean.
Xiao Yuanyuan lowered her head shyly. Of course she knew that Qin Hao would not let her accompany her to dinner, but Lu Siying who was next to her didn't know that. She thought Qin Hao was already interested. After all, this was 10 million. , although these two people are called brothers and sisters, they do not have the same surname, and they are probably not real brothers and sisters. In this circle where interests far exceed feelings, 10 million is enough to achieve betrayal. You must know that Xiao Yuanyuan is just a Newcomer.
"Mr. Qin, do you really want Yuanyuan to accompany you? You must not do this. This ten million is definitely not just the price of a meal. This will harm Yuanyuan!" Lu Siying couldn't bear it. Resident general Xiao Yuanyuan was guarding him behind him, looking at Qin Hao with a somewhat indifferent expression, and his attitude was no longer as respectful as before.
Before Qin Hao could speak, Chen Chu immediately became angry. Seeing Qin Hao's expression, it was clear that he was a little interested, but the little woman who appeared out of nowhere dared to ruin his good deeds without even looking at him. Identity, but let’s not talk about it. This girl has been playing small roles on the set for so long, and I really didn’t notice that she was a little bit pretty.
"Lu Siying, you are just a part-time student on the crew who is running the same routine. What qualifications do you have to comment on this matter? Or do you want to attend the dinner with Xiao Yuanyuan? Producer Qin, if you can bring this girl with you, So why don't I give you another 10 million yuan?" (To be continued)
