Artists change agents, but they are not ordinary employees who change jobs.

It needs to be carefully selected!

What height can an artist reach be closely related to the ability of the agent behind him.

Excellent agents can turn artists from unknown people into superstars. But at the same time, the extremely close connection between artists and agents. The agent has a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of their own artists, which often leads to this working relationship that develops friendships outside of work.

Xiaobai is of course an artist, and his external image, which is the legendary character design, was almost manipulated by Chen Baolian.

Talented, young, and now he has a sense of justice...

This character is very good. At least in today's era of "foodies", "girls" and "honest people" who are all over the floor, they are quite innovative!

Pingping perfectly inherited some of Chen Baolian's methods.

The most important thing is that the novice doesn’t need to compete with others for resources like other artists, and he is easy to lead!

From the perspective of Xiaobai, the agent he needs is the kind of person who will not force him to take on a bunch of messy activities or cocktail parties.

Anyway, Xiaobai is quite satisfied with Pingping...

Chen Baolian was also very satisfied with her.

"In fact, negotiations like this are very simple to deal with. No matter what the other party says, as long as we stick to the bottom line of 25% and don't let go, they can't do anything..."

“…But what if they don’t invest?”

"How is this possible? This is Bai Xiaofei's movie, and there is still a shortage of investment? It's good to take them to play!"

After looking at Pingping who was thinking, Chen Baolian smiled: "Remember, it was us who chose them, not us who chose them!"

"…I read that script. To be honest, if we hadn't owe Yongsheng a favor, I wouldn't have worked with them at all!"

“Is the script good?”

"Anyway, it's okay to exceed 500 million!"

...

“Our conditions are not high.”

Facing a bunch of Yongsheng's executives, Chen Baolian seemed to have no pressure at all. Even if there were big guys like Li Shufu, she still talked: "Bai Xiaofei's director and screenwriter paid a total of 20 million yuan, and she also enjoyed 10% of the box office share of the film!"

After looking at the faces of everyone opposite, he continued: "Bai Xiaofei Studio has at least one-third of the investment amount of the video and enjoys the same proportion of income..."

As Chen Baolian spoke out one by one the negotiation conditions, the faces of the people on the other side became more and more serious.

Damn it!

Ten percent is still one-third, so how can Yongsheng make money?

Make a name for yourself?

Of course, this is just Che Baolian’s initial request. Both sides are testing each other’s bottom line. The negotiations lasted for half an hour and then they ended in disagreement.

Neither Chen Baolian nor Yongsheng's senior executives were very satisfied with each other.

Yongsheng is willing to provide Bai Xiaofei with a step-by-step share contract, of course only for him!

Getting the box office share is not easy for any director.

All companies are the same, they are vampires. If there is no sufficient profit as a guarantee, they will not be able to let go easily.

According to the step-by-step share agreement, Xiaobai will be paid in the form of "advance payment + box office income share". He can get a 5 million advance payment in advance and then obtain it according to the box office income of the film.

Taking the box office of over 100 million as the basic point of sharing - "Riding the Wind and Waves" advertising implantation revenue reached 40 million, and the actual production cost was less than 30 million...

As long as the box office exceeds 100 million, as a director, Xiaobai can get the most basic salary of 15 million.

If you exceed 200 million, one percent of the box office share will be shared;

Five hundred million, five percent;

One billion can get ten percent;

1.2 billion, 12 percent, is also the highest share ratio.

It's similar to the share ratio of "Knocking on the Gate of Heaven".

But one thing is that they are unwilling to accept investment from Bai Xiaofei's studio, and they are unwilling to have a single child!

It’s not that I dislike the other party’s money being unclear or something, but mainly because I don’t want to share the profits…

Everyone knows that "Ride the Wind and Waves" may make a big hit. In this case, every penny may bring several times the profit!

In this case, let alone Bai Xiaofei's studio, it is impossible for the film bureau to interfere!

It is simply delusion to take out something from the capitalist’s mouth!

...

After the negotiations, a group of senior executives entered Gu Nianxi's office to discuss the many conditions proposed by Chen Baolian just now.

After listening for a long time, she still didn't hear any nutritious topics. Gu Nianxi knocked on the table. After everyone calmed down, she spoke: "Mr. Li, what do you think?"

Li Shufu looked at the secretary standing next to him, and the latter hurried forward: "Our script review department has read the script of "Riding the Wind and Waves", and the probability of profit is very high."

Looking at the group of executives around him, he continued: "This script inherits the humorous style of "Knocking on the Gate of Heaven" to a certain extent, but the topic selection is a little broader, and the themes of family and friendship are more easily accepted by the public..."

"There is another point. Although Bai Xiaofei's directorial journey has just begun, it is obviously in an upward period. The works of directors in this period are often extremely valuable. According to past experience, the possibility of his success is far greater than the possibility of failure."

"And he also chose Deng Chao, who also made great achievements in comedy, as the male lead, and in some respects he also ensured..."

"When did Deng Chao make achievements in comedy?"

The person who spoke was Gu Nianxi's female secretary, and her expression was a little disdainful...

"Haha, we admit that Deng Chao's comedy has a bad reputation, but the box office is very good. This means that he has enough appeal in this regard! We sell movies, not judges, and the reputation of the movies is bad. What does it have to do with us? As long as it sells well!"

Li Shufu took over the topic.

"So, this video is likely to be profitable!"

Gu Nianxi interrupted several people's discussion and concluded.

"Yes, and according to our marketing department's prediction, the probability of a box office exceeding 500 million is as high as six levels!"

"Although five hundred million is a big number, it's nothing to Yongsheng."

Gu Nianxi smiled a little disdainfully and changed the subject: "But when making movies, we are seeking to maximize benefits! Now someone wants to enter the game and take away one-third of them!"

"I don't know what you think, I will never agree!"

"But, their attitude is very firm..."

"Let me do this, I'll go find Mr. Chen. Of course, that's the last choice... By the way, we can go directly to Bai Xiaofei and appropriately increase his director's salary."

Gu Nianxi didn't want anything but asked Chen Laoba to do it, which would make her seem incompetent...

"But, Mr. Gu, the director's pay we give is already the highest in the industry!"
