"When I was filming "A Chinese Ghost Story 4", I created four special effects teams and planned to choose two from them. Then we made an appointment to meet together and communicate with them carefully."

Qian Chen also doesn't plan to take kickbacks from hiring special effects.

The three of them came together for an interview.

In order to prevent these two guys from thinking that they have cheated out how much money they have, they will feel unbalanced.

"Does a lot of special effects need to be used? Is our movie biased toward martial arts or martial arts?" Yuan Heping asked.

Low martial arts, just like "The Master in a Bag".

As for Zhongwu, Xu Ke's "Swordsman" is actually considered to be a medium-level martial arts film among martial arts films.

Gao Wu is closer to Xian Xia...

It's not as good as "Wind and Cloud" and "The Legend of Shushan", but it still makes the sword energy fly freely and crackle with just a wave of the hand.

"Let's move from low martial arts to medium martial arts. It's lower than Swordsman. Otherwise, the power of the Qi Family Sword and the Yuanyang Formation won't be reflected."

Qian Chen thought for a moment and said.

It can’t be too low, otherwise it will become an ancient war movie.

Personal force becomes ineffective.

After some discussion, the three of them had an idea of ​​what kind of movie they wanted to make.

The next step is to calculate the costs.

Start calculating little by little, this is something more than just something you have to know in your mind.

It should also be shown to investors.

No matter how true to his word Boss Yang is, no matter how philanthropic he is, he will never squander tens of millions on you without a reasonable budget.

The three people worked very seriously.

It was mainly done by Yuan Heping and Yang Lu, Qian Chen didn't understand this at all.

Qian Chen only cares about how much money to pay for the male lead.

And his martial arts treatment.

Producer treatment.

Yuan Heping provided some precedents in the industry.

Without playing tricks, the producer doesn't actually get much.

"Just do it as normal, don't do any small tricks, just drive it a little higher." Qian Chen said with righteousness.

Yuan Heping and Yang Lu looked at each other.

The expressions are a bit complicated.

If Qian Chen is greedy, he will bring everyone together to make money.

Then it’s hard to talk about the quality of this drama.

Yuan Heping is already old, so he cherishes his feathers more or less.

As for Yang Lu, he still hopes to be a hit and then find someone to film his "Xiu Chun Knife".

However, now the producer Qian Chen takes the lead in not making money.

That means that no one from top to bottom is allowed to fish.

"Both of you, thanks to Boss Yang, it's my first time to make a movie with someone. Instead of making a small profit of 100,000 yuan, I want to build a reputation first."

In fact, he can't fish it out.

The same thing, said in different ways, has different effects.

"It's my first time too," Yang Lu said with enthusiasm.

"Haha, I just admire you Qian Chen, and I think I have to cooperate no matter what before I am willing to accept it. The future is yours, and I am the green leaves lining the flowers." Yuan Heping also agreed with a smile.

All he wants is money.

When there was no money, he asked for favors.

I'll give you money to save face.

If you have the opportunity in the future, I hope you can take more care of our Yuan family class.

Producer remuneration.

Usually it's about one million.

Qian Chen wrote this for 1.2 million, but investors didn’t care.

Qian Chen and Yuan Heping are both martial artists.

His martial arts remuneration is 500,000, while Yuan Heping's is 1 million.

The martial arts team is basically all members of the Yuan family class.

At that time, if there are martial arts supporting roles, they will be played by people from the Yuan family class.

A producer is not as good as a producer.

However, under normal circumstances, the producer hires a super director, who pays a lot of money, and does not have to do any work, so he just uses the opportunity to promote the project, so the remuneration of the producer fluctuates greatly.

Qian Chen gave Yuan Heping a production fee of one million.

In this way, Yuan Heping's total remuneration for making this movie will be two million.

It’s already pretty good.

The remuneration behind the scenes is generally lower than that of actors in front of the stage.

Yang Lu's director's fee is 800,000.

lower.

Director's remuneration also fluctuates greatly. For example, some super directors often ask for more than 5 million to 10 million, and sometimes they receive dividends from the movie box office.

Ordinary first-line film directors in the industry will also receive a salary of 1 million to 3 million.

But some second- and third-tier small directors or artistic film directors are not that good. Most of the director fees they charge are less than one million.

Mostly three to five million.

Qian Chen gave Yang Lu 800,000 yuan, which was already a high price.

Boss Yang did not give him an exact number.

But during the Spring Festival, I once said tactfully that the movie king has invested in a lot of movies this year, and I hope that Qian Chen and his team's movie should not exceed 100 million.

We didn’t find a famous director or hire a big shot.

How could it be possible to spend 100 million.

Therefore, Qian Chen had the confidence to offer Yang Lu a high price.

The reason why I didn’t open it is one million.

That's because Yang Lu is not well-known, so giving him the job of a second-tier director would make Boss Yang uncomfortable.

This affects the assessment of the overall budget.

Yang Lu and Qian Chen can also get a screenwriting fee. Although it is not much, it is still 200,000 yuan after tax.

Qian Chen also gave himself the title of assistant director.

Three hundred thousand remuneration.

Even when Xu Ke was directing, he could work as an assistant director. Now that a half-hearted director like Yang Lu is a director, he will naturally do his part.

There is also a soundtrack.

Qian Chen has been working on the soundtrack for Xu Ke recently and has gained a lot of inspiration.

There is a song that is very suitable to set off the siege battles in martial arts movies.

I couldn't bear to give it to Xu Ke.

Not very suitable either.

When the time comes, you can use it and pair it with one or two songs. One million is not too much.

The final highlight is the male lead.

"In terms of remuneration, I will get four million, and I went to Jiang Dabin and Jiang Shu to hold a celebration party a few years ago..."

Four million.

Very sincere.

Take last year's hit "Bullets Are Flying" as an example, Ge You's 5.3 million yuan and Liu Jialin's 4.4 million yuan.

Qian Chen took four million.

This has already equaled some non-traffic first-line celebrities.
