Entertainment: You can't imagine the joy of being a director

The quality of “The Rich in Xihong City” is not bad, at least in line with what a comedy should have. After watching the finished film, she was very optimistic and started looking for a partner.

On Bai Yang ‘s side, he also began to prepare for the shooting of his next work “Why Shengxiaomo”.

The preparatory work for “Why Shengxiaomo ” is basically completed, and the filming location is chosen to be in Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

The filming of TV series is not difficult.

When preparing for “Why Shengxiaomo “, Bai Yang also mentioned the second movie “Life Events” to Chen Shexi, and asked the company to approve the project.

For the second movie, you can’t eat alone with the first movie, you need to find a partner!

Recruit partners from the “Xihong City Rich” line.

For the first movie, Bai Yang is the director of an online drama, and no one in the film industry thinks highly of him. Even if he is looking for a cast, will anyone cast it?

The second movie is hard to say.

Although Bai Yang’s first film was not released, but. When he starts his second movie, and the first movie comes out, Ben will come waving the money.

Instead of waiting for that time , it is better to find a good investor now.

It also makes the execution work of “Xihong City Rich” a little bit easier.

the next day.

Chen Zhixi told Bai Yang excitedly that the company she was looking for was very optimistic that “Xihong City Rich” could make money, but the only bad thing was: I don’t believe the box office can break one billion !

Of course, such propaganda slogans cannot be missing.

Isn’t this a double standard?

Not optimistic, but also optimistic.

Chen Zhixi looked radiant, and said excitedly: ” Shadow, Light , and Bona are all very optimistic about Mr. Bai’s movie, who do you think we can find? ”

” Ying, do you still think about it? ”

Bai Yang didn’t hesitate at all, and said directly: ” No matter what else, cooperating with Ying is the kingly way! ”

” Besides, the subject matter of my second movie is a bit troublesome. I need to find a reliable partner, so Ying is the most suitable partner! ”

Chen Zhixi nodded, making it clear.

Then, she said again: ” Boss Bai , why don’t you listen to how to cooperate? ”

” Could it be that the conditions are very different? ”

” Shadow and light are the market standard, but … Bona is more interested, and wants to meet Mr. Bai. ”

” Bona ? ”

” Yes, it’s Bona! ”

” Okay, Sister Chen, please make arrangements to meet Bona, anyway, it won’t be a day or two. ”

” Boss Bai , let me arrange …”

Chen Zhixi moved quickly, or maybe Bona was in a hurry.

The next day, in the afternoon.

Chen Zhixi said that the arrangements were made, and she and Bai Yang went to Bona’s office building to meet.

I thought I was going to meet with Bona Cinemas and Xingfang, but … it turned out to be Bona Yu Zong.

” Mr. Bai, I have admired your name for a long time, and I have always wanted to meet you, but you are too busy . ”

Bai Yang grasped Mr. Yu’s hand, and said with a smile, ” Mr. Yu won it. I’m just a small director. ”

” No, you are not a small director, you are a big director! ”

Mr. Yu shook his head, and said firmly, ” Mr. Bai, I believe your first film’s box office will exceed one billion! ”

Bai Yang : “…”

Chen Zhixi: “…”

The two looked at each other, what’s going on?

Mr. Yu did not confuse the two of them, and explained: ” Mr. Bai, you are right, there will definitely be a Chinese-language movie with a box office of over one billion! ”

” I like Mr. Bai’s movie of yours! ”

” It was you, Boss Bai, who proposed the first movie with a box office of over one billion . Last year’s Lunar New Year …

Hey, it’s all a joke ! ”

” I’ve never met a guy who made two money-making movies flop. ”

” So …”

Speaking of this, Mr. Yu got straight to the point, and said: ” Mr. Bai, give us your movie to Bona, and we can sign a box office level agreement. ”

” It’s the same as last year’s Lunar New Year stall. ”

Listen, listen, Bai Yang understood.

Mr. Yu, this is revenge!

In other words, I don’t want to let go of any opportunity: the first Chinese-language film’s chance to break one billion at the box office!

During the Lunar New Year last year , “Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate” produced and distributed by Bona fought against “Thirteen Pans of Jinling”, and both sides suffered losses.

He’s making a comeback this year!

Although there are no movies with new screens in the summer, but … he can’t swallow this breath. Besides, since the release of “Jinling Thirteen Pans”, Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping have not been on the same stage, and the recent ones are all rumored to be ” double sheets” ” The news of breaking up.

Mr. Yu showed his hole cards, and the next tense negotiations went smoothly.

The account sharing agreement eventually became a VAM agreement!

This is a gambling agreement signed at Bai Yang’s insistence, which is slightly better than the ledger agreement.

Bai Yang couldn’t ask too much for the account sharing and the account sharing with the cinema.

No matter what he says “The Rich in Xihong City” will become the first Chinese-language film to break a billion at the box office, but … who would believe it?

so.

He had no choice but to retreat and sign a gambling agreement with Bona .

The bill-sharing agreement is also only in Bona Cinemas, and it is also added to the gambling agreement.

Overall.

Everything revolves around the [billion] point!

PS : The third update! .

Chapter Two Agreements! Poplar layout, intercept Hu Zhang Yimou!

eventually .

Bai Yang decided to choose Bona as the director of “Xihong City Rich”.

Because Bona is full of sincerity!

Gambling agreement + account sharing agreement = money gambling agreement: “Xihong City Rich” is handed over to Bona Bank, with the [billion] box office as the boundary, if the box office exceeds one billion, Bona will give the profit, and get a minimum of 4 % The box office is divided into.

The box office did not exceed one billion , and Bona took 10% of the box office!

Of course, it is unrealistic for the line to take 10% of the box office .

The VAM agreement has come out, what else is unrealistic?

Generally speaking, for a movie, the box office is divided into the range of 4%-% .

However, there are also some in the range of 4%-% , and it is not uncommon to have a higher box office share, but it is rare.

It depends on which party needs more, or makes more profits.

As for the account sharing agreement, it is basically the same as the account sharing agreement signed with major domestic theaters last year for the Lunar New Year file “Jinling Thirteen Pans”.

However, it is a little different .

Still use [billion] as the boundary.

Box office within one billion : 4% : % More than one billion: 4% : %4 “Xihongshifu” and Bona signed an account sharing agreement with these two types, with one billion as the limit .

Within one billion box office , the original account sharing contract will be maintained.

The box office broke one billion , which increased the share by % .

After the box office broke one billion , Bai Yang didn’t give up profits, but … made a profit!

Because no one believes that the box office of “Xihong City Rich” can exceed one billion.

Even Mr. Yu said that he believed that Bai Yang’s film would become the first Chinese-language film to break one billion.

but.

This is just what businessmen say, and it is too much to do.

As long as it is not really written into the contract, it is all fake, and there are countless things to do!

For example, Master Xing ‘s “Journey to the West Conquering the Demons” was handed over to Hua Yihang, because the verbal agreement was not implemented in the contract, Hua Yi intercepted tens of millions that should have been given to Master Xing.

In the end, the two sides broke up!

the same way.

Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping also recently broke up.

Besides, Bona and Xu Ke also had some conflicts, because the box office failure of “Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate” made Xu Ke think about his next partner.

On this point, as the chairman of Bona, Mr. Yu knew that he needed to find a new partner, and the first person who caught his eye was naturally Bai Yang.

Regardless of whether the box office of “Xihong City Rich” can break one billion , he will not lose money!

Breaking one billion , he slapped Zhang Weiping in the face, and indirectly broke the hatred of last year’s Lunar New Year.

The reason why Bai Yang entrusted Bona with “The Rich in Xihong City” is because he also has this intention.

At this moment , ” Shuangzhang ” is breaking up, Bai Yang has planned for so long, and finally waited until this day, do you think he will not participate ?

Worried about not being able to find a chance, Mr. Bona presented a good opportunity.

Not only can it disgust Zhang Weiping, but it can also speed up the ” double Zhang ” breakup;

Moreover, it can also make profits for “Xihong City Rich”, a good opportunity to kill multiple birds with one stroke, he will not miss it!

After leaving Bona .

Chen Shexi said with emotion: ” Boss Bai , didn’t you say to cooperate with Ying? ”

Bai Yang said: ” No conflict! ”

” The main reason is that Bona ‘s sincerity is too good, I can’t refuse! ”

If you think about it carefully , it really is.
