Chapter Seventy-Eight: Deal or No Deal
The content of the contract is as stated by Assistant Wang, which is a regular contract with the same content. An Zhisu focused on the requirements of Party A and the benefits of Party B.
Party A requires the designer to design at least eight sets of cheongsams for the heroine of the movie, and the material fees for the clothing will be borne by Party A. The way Party A pays the designer's remuneration is not settled in cash, but rather gives the designer a one-percent of the box office dividend of the movie.
An Zhisu was shocked when she saw the payment method. Although she was not very clear about the box office status of the movies made by Li Chen, even if it was only sold for a few hundred million yuan, the one-percent reward would be a bit too high.
"Director Li, is this... one percent of the box office share too high?" An Zhisu asked with a little guilty conscience.
Li Chen laughed and waved his hands repeatedly: "It's not high or high. If the movie is hit hard and the box office is bleak, Miss An will have to lose money. I have always signed a contract with the designer like this."
Assistant Wang:...
Assistant Wang, who was beside him, jumped his temples twice and thought that their director Li was a filmmaker. He had made too many movies and his acting skills were in a state of superb state. He really didn't blush when he lies.
He has been following him for many years, and he has never signed such a contract in the contract he handled. If every designer gives dividends, what else can Director Li and the investors eat? It will be better to drink the northwest wind.
However, he would definitely not say these words. Anyway, the one-percent box office dividend was taken from Ye Lancheng. Ye Shao is rich and willful, so they naturally have one hundred willing people to do it.
"That's how..." An Zhisu really couldn't figure out the rules of this industry and nodded as if he was trustworthy.
"Well, that's it. If there is no problem, then sign it. After signing, let's talk about the content of the movie. Only when you have an understanding of the content of the movie can you better design the costumes." Li Chen said half-seriously and half-falsly.
An Zhisu nodded, said "No problem", and signed his name behind the two contracts.
Li Chen then signed Daming and gave the contract to Assistant Wang, asking him to stamp it.
After Assistant Wang went out, Li Chen took out the script from the drawer and handed it to An Zhisu while chatting with her about the general content of the movie. The movie is called "The Princess of the Qing Dynasty", which tells the story of an Eight Banner Princess of the Last Dynasty. This princess was born in a noble family and was from the Tong Jia clan of the Yellow Banner Banner. Her real name was Tong Jiaruolan. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, she fled to Changchun with her family. After the puppet Manchukuo was established in Changchun, she became the
It took a few years for the princess.
Later, the Manchus were destroyed and Japan completely occupied the three northeastern provinces. Tong Jiaruolan was brutally invaded by the Japanese. In order to survive, she became the top star of Paramount and changed her name to Tong Ruolan.
Although Tong Ruolan has fallen into the dust, she has the pride of a princess in her bones and her national hatred and family hatred in her heart, which makes her hate the Japanese invaders. She plans to assassinate a senior Japanese general, and meets the male protagonist who is also here to assassinate during the assassination process. The two of them work together to kill the general.
After that, Tong Ruolan got to know the male lead. After learning that the male lead was actually an underground party that was the anti-Japanese party, Tong Ruolan resolutely joined the anti-Japanese organization where the male lead was located and became an underground anti-Japanese warrior.
Tong Ruolan used her identity to cover up the male protagonist and helped the male protagonist escape from the scene after every assassination. The two cooperated tacitly and fell in love for a long time. After the invaders were driven out of China, they would get married and have children, and grow old together.
However, things are unpredictable, and the identity of the male protagonist is exposed. To save the male protagonist, Tong Ruolan gave up his life and died tragically at the hands of the Japanese. The male protagonist escaped and made great contributions in the War of Resistance Against Japan. After Japan surrendered, he became a general but never married. This is a film that combines literature and art. It has both the love between children and the righteousness of the country, and fully reflects the Chinese spirit of that era. Tong Ruolan represents all the unfortunate women of that era and is a woman worthy of praise and admiration. The script is very well written,
Zhisu can't wait to see the finished film.
"Director Li, can I know who the male and female protagonists are chosen?" An Zhisu put down the script and asked with great interest. "I have a crush on the male protagonist, Xia Jingze and are in contact with him. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be him. His acting skills are good and famous, which meets my requirements. For the female protagonist, I don't plan to be decided. I will hold an audition in a few days. I hope I can find the female protagonist in my mind.
Choose.” Li Chen did not hide the negotiation secrets of An Zhisu. They had a confidential contract and were not worried about An Zhisu's disclosure.
When An Zhisu heard that the male protagonist selected by Li Chen was Xia Jingze, he bent his eyebrows and eyes, and he felt very happy for Xia Jingze.
Li Chen looked at her and smiled, and suddenly there was a flash of inspiration. He clapped his hands and said, "Miss An, why not choose someone with me."
"Ah? I? I can't do it, I don't understand this job at all." An Zhisu waved his hands repeatedly as if he was shocked, not daring to take on the big responsibility. "You don't need to understand, just follow me and be a counselor for me. I look at the acting skills, you look at the temperament. The heroine I need not only has acting skills, but also has the temperament that is untainted. You are a designer, and you have to tailor the costumes for the heroine in the future. Don't you want to give it to me.
Choose the best model by yourself?" Li Chen said with a smile. Of course, this is beyond doubt. Every designer needs the best model. Only when the temperament of the model is right can he wear the soul of his clothes. Especially for cheongsams, not every beautiful woman can wear it. This is also the main thing that cheongsams cannot become popular among the public.
The reason is that there are very few people who are suitable for wearing.
An Zhisu was bewitched by Li Chen. After persisting for a while, he still couldn't resist the temptation. He simply gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay, then I'm better obedient than to be respectful. I can't help at that time, please don't blame Director Li."
"No wonder, multiple people have more eyes. After the audition time is determined, I will let Xiao Wang notify you." Li Chen was very happy that An Zhisu would agree to him.
"Okay, then I'll leave first and don't bother Director Li." Seeing that the conversation was almost done, An Zhisu got up and said goodbye.
Li Chen called Assistant Wang to come in and send An Zhisu downstairs. Assistant Wang happened to give her a stamped contract. An Zhisu put it in her handbag and was sent to the company's door by Assistant Wang.
"Miss An, please be careful when driving, and contact us." Assistant Wang helped An Zhisu open the car door in a gentleman manner.
"Thank you, Assistant Wang, goodbye." An Zhisu smiled and thanked him for getting in the car, waved his hand with Assistant Wang, and drove away.
Assistant Wang watched her car disappear from sight, secretly guessing that her relationship with Ye Lancheng, the president of Shengshi Consortium, was not sure what kind of intimate relationship could make Ye Lan her, spend hundreds of millions to invest in movies, and even be willing to give out one percent of her box office dividends.
One percent, it sounds like a small amount, but it can't stand the total box office. You should know that Director Li has always guaranteed the box office. The movies he has made are the lowest box office. It means that An Zhisu can only design eight sets of clothes and get a dividend of at least 10 million, which is only a lot. "I spend a lot of money, tsk, the world of rich people, I really don't understand." Assistant Wang shook his head and turned back to the company to himself.
