star restricted area

When she was filming "Over the World" last time, Yueyue told Su Lekai that she would have the opportunity to let Su Lekai star in a play she wrote. Even Yueyue didn't expect that what was just a polite word at that time would come true so quickly, and , The status of the two people was reversed at once.Even though Yueyue is the screenwriter of the popular TV series, Su Lekai won the Best Actor and stood at the top.Such speed, such good luck, even Yueyue couldn't help but be amazed.

The director of "Suspension" Feng Ziguang is very young. He just graduated from school not long ago. It stands to reason that no one would dare to hand over the project to him at such a young age. He usually starts as an assistant director of other crews. However, Yueyue is very optimistic about him, Yueyue is now a gold medal screenwriter, with her endorsement, the production company can't ignore it, so Feng Ziguang was used.

Su Lekai and Yang Bole sat across from them.

Feng Ziguang seemed to be a little excited and excited. He licked his lips and said, "I'm so happy to invite Lucy to play the leading role this time. I think the people from the production company won't say anything."

He spoke very bluntly and did not hide it at all. Su Lekai felt funny in his heart, but felt that Feng Ziguang was really a very straightforward person. He waved his hand and said, "Actually, I have never starred in a TV series before. Whether it is good or bad I can't guarantee it either, but I do like the script."

Feng Ziguang nodded, glanced at Yueyue, and said, "The script is really well written."

Yueyue seemed to be a little fatter again, wearing a crescent yellow knitted sweater, she smiled shyly and said, "Don't just keep praising me."

Su Lekai glanced at Yang Bole, Yang Bole understood, and said: "Director, screenwriter, you all know that Le Kai just finished filming Wan Hetong's "The Western Regions", and he planned to rest for a while, but he happened to see this script , that's why Le Kai decided to take a break to film, we want to know how long this film will take?"

Feng Ziguang heard the words and said: "Judging from the current script capacity, it is initially estimated to be [-] days. However, because this is a crime-solving drama, if the effect is good after the broadcast, Yueyue and I will both The idea of ​​doing the second and third episodes is to make it a classic TV series."

Su Lekai and Yang Bole looked at each other.This is the first time Su Lekai heard of this news. He was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Yueyue and said, "Sister Yueyue, is this going to be a series?"

Yueyue is no better than Feng Ziguang, and has met countless celebrities, big and small, in the circle. Hearing Su Lekai's question, he knows what Su Lekai is worried about.

She hurriedly said: "Lucky, don't worry, we only signed the first part of the contract, and we won't ask you to sign the whole series. If there is a second or third part, we will discuss it later."

It is impossible for an actor like Su Lekai to tie himself to a series. Even those movie actors rarely take on a movie series, unless they are actors who are mixed from the series.Because, if it is decided to act in a series, it means that at least five years will be invested in it. If this schedule is occupied, it means that many other films will not be able to be made.

Hearing this, Su Lekai smiled and said, "Yeah."

Yang Bole took over the conversation and said: "In that case, our preliminary intention has been reached, and I will discuss the details of the contract with the producer tomorrow."

To put it bluntly, directors and screenwriters are hired by the producers just like actors.They all came to work for the producers.Therefore, although Su Lekai was invited by the director and screenwriter, the salary and other details still had to be finalized with the producer.

And the quality of this contract depends on which of the two parties has the right to speak.

Generally speaking, big companies are the party that has the absolute right to speak, but if they want to invite big stars and top actors to perform, they will inevitably have to remove part of the right to speak. All big stars are priceless.

Yang Bole said to Su Lekai after returning: "The current TV drama market is very chaotic, and actors' remuneration is also very high. If you really calculate the remuneration according to this market price, with your current market price, you can get 100 million episodes. But I I don’t recommend you to do this, because the investment in a TV series is limited, if you get the big head here, other production costs will be less.”

Su Lekai nodded in approval and asked, "Then how much do you plan to call?"

Yang Bole said: "This TV series is scheduled for 56 episodes, and my bottom line is 50 episodes."

Su Lekai did the math, if it was 50 an episode, this TV series could earn him more than 2000 million, which is still very high.

He said: "Bai Le, do you think they will agree if I convert half of the salary into investment?"

Yang Bole was taken aback, and asked, "Do you want to use your film salary to invest?"

Su Lekai nodded and said, "It's just that I have very little qualifications now, so I don't know if they will agree."

Yang Bole's eyes lit up, and he said, "Let me help you talk."

His family is in business, and he has been fascinated by business negotiations since he was a child. Although there are some differences in the entertainment industry, they are similar. Yang Bole is also very interested in negotiating prices.

Su Lekai wants to use half of the salary as capital, which is actually very common.Half of the big-name actors would do this, even the top big-name actors such as Wan and Tong didn't need to convert their salary at all, and directly took the top salary, plus the global box office share.

Before Su Lekai filmed "The Western Regions", he thought about whether to take a share of the global box office. Later, Zeng Renting said: "Hollywood in the United States is actually very traditional. If you don't reach that level, no matter how famous you are, you won't get a share. "

In this way, Su Lekai's thoughts were dispelled.

However, Su Lekai felt that if he only made money from filming, God knows when he would be able to save enough money to invest in Wan Xia.

That's why he came up with the idea of ​​paying for the film.

He is very optimistic about the drama "Suspension". In his opinion, there is definitely a market for this drama.

The producer of "Suspension" is Zijing, a new company that has not been established for three years. However, it has also attracted the attention of some people in the industry due to the success of two consecutive TV series.

This time to prepare for "The Suspension", they even spent a lot of money to hire the screenwriter Yueyue.

However, they never expected that Yueyue could invite Su Lekai to play the leading role.
