187【New Film Project】
Ye Cheng's total revenue for commercial performances and endorsement activities last year was 53.25 million, which is the data after he turned down many small commercial performances. Based on the performance and endorsement fees, Ye Cheng can already rank among the top 15 domestic artists, which of course brings huge economic benefits to the dream company.
Let me specifically explain that mainland artists do not have the habit of paying taxes when taking on commercial performances. You can ask me to do activities. If you agree to have a performance fee of 600,000, you have to pay 600,000 yuan. As for personal income tax, please help me pay.
Therefore, the value of commercial performances of mainland artists is the default after-tax price.
This is a historical issue. In the 1980s and 1990s, celebrities took on commercial performances and were called "punching". Punching was a violation of regulations. They were all guerrilla wars that ran away after the performance. Even the leaders of their units had to hide it from it. Who would pay taxes?
So the habit of not paying taxes in commercial performances was passed down in this way. After the market was standardized, the stars were still unwilling to pay taxes, so they could only help the event organizers to help raise taxes.
However, advertising endorsements are much more formal. After catching a few popular celebrities who evade taxes, other artists became very honest.
Ye Cheng’s commercial performance endorsement revenue this year is of course the dream company can earn 40%, and 20% of it is Ye Cheng’s promotional expenses according to the contract.
Ye Cheng has been running around for nearly a month at the end of the year, and his performance fees are earning one by one like cutting leeks. He also saved a lot of publicity fees under his name. When the three major music awards ended, the Dream Company of course allocated 3 million to build momentum for Ye Cheng, and both the Internet and the real media can see the news about Ye Cheng.
"Ye Cheng won the Grand Slam of the Three Major Music Awards and reached the peak of the Chinese music scene"
"Ye Cheng swept the music awards, the little king in the music industry deserves its reputation"
"Chinese pop music scene ushers in the Yecheng era"
Reports are flooding with people, and almost the newspapers with slightly higher sales are all praising articles by Ye Cheng. Some are dreaming of the results of company public relations. Some are spontaneous reports from the media. Such propaganda offensives have made Ye Cheng very popular, and the appearance fee soared from 750,000 to 850,000.
Of course, the event party is not a fool. It is impossible for you to say that 850,000 is 850,000. From last year's newcomer king to this year's best male singer, and in recent times, some media have even called Ye Cheng the "little king of music". It is natural to increase the appearance fee.
Ye Cheng's fans also ran around to celebrate their idol's becoming a king-level figure. Some people listed all the awards Ye Cheng won during this period, and there were 19 trophys.
Of course it is a good thing to have too many trophys, but after receiving 19 trophys in a month, the awards won are not worth much. Anyone with a little brain knows how well it is.
The trolls who dislike Ye Cheng took this to mock Ye Cheng for "being obsessed with the award", and even gave him a nickname "Receive the Award Ye". Ye Cheng's fans were not ashamed but proud. Their response was very simple. You said that these awards were bad cabbage, but you would be so awesome to take a few home.
Although the fans were very happy, to be honest, Ye Cheng couldn't help but blush when he looked at the rows of trophys in the cabinet.
Let’s not talk about the music awards. Among these trophies, Ye Cheng also won the Best Newcomer Actor Award for TV Series. This was awarded by the OO Entertainment Annual Ceremony. Three exactly the same Newcomer Awards were awarded that night. The reason for Ye Cheng’s award was that he played the third male lead in "Love Book".
This trophy is more watery and more watery. Even if it is awarded to the seven leading actors of "Love Apartment", it is more suitable than to Ye Cheng.
Let’s stop talking. After a month of fermentation, Ye Cheng’s new record “Love in the Aegean Sea” has also achieved gratifying results. The cumulative sales have reached more than 80,000, which is more than Ye Cheng’s first album “Chasing Dreams and Child Heart”. Among them, the four new songs “Men’s Ocean”, “Running”, “Life Like Summer Flowers” and “Thousands of Miles Away” are particularly pleasing. This year, there are many singers singing Ye Cheng’s new songs.
The CCTV Spring Festival Gala director team also sent a notice to Ye Cheng, asking him to attend the first rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala on January 15. At first, Ye Cheng was asked to sing "Birch Forest" there, but later it was changed to "Sailor". Finally, after research and discussion, he decided to let Ye Cheng sing "Blue and White Porcelain".
...
Magic City, in the temporary editing room.
Ye Cheng sat aside, watching the editor and director roughly edit the filming scenes today. After they finished their work, he said, "Brother Fang, let me tell you something."
"Ah!" Fang Zhuomin covered his mouth and yawned, and said a little tiredly, "Just give me a midnight snack, let's talk about it another day."
Ye Cheng smiled and said, "I think beautifully. I will come over tonight and invite you to have a midnight snack."
"Hey, Mr. Ye, you're not authentic," Fang Zhuomin joked, "You have won so many awards recently, and you have made sluggish performance fees, and you haven't even invited me to dinner."
"Okay, I can't escape this meal," Ye Cheng smiled, "Then can I ask you next time? I'm really having something to do with you today."
Fang Zhuomin rubbed his face and said, "Okay, go to my room and say, and call me to order takeout."
Fang Zhuomin's room was next to the editing room. Before he could call for takeaway, Ye Cheng asked, "How is the progress of "Love Apartment 2"?"
"I have filmed 8 episodes, and I will try to finish the film before the Spring Festival." Fang Zhuomin replied.
"Brother Fang, look at this." Ye Cheng took out two stacks of manuscript papers.
"Script?" Fang Zhuomin picked it up and flipped it around. When he looked at the manuscript papers below, he smiled in surprise, "Oh, it's not bad, I can write shooting scripts, and I'm doing well in the director's class. Is this the homework assigned by the teacher?"
Ye Cheng shook his head and said, "I plan to make a movie, this is the script and shooting script for the new film."
"Are you playing really?" Fang Zhuomin looked at Ye Cheng differently.
Ye Cheng said with a serious expression: "I said the company wants to invest in movies."
Fang Zhuomin read the first page of the script carefully and said disappointedly: "It's a romantic comedy, so you can't shoot something more interesting? I'm going crazy when I shoot this thing. Don't ask me to be a director."
Ye Cheng smiled and said, "Brother Fang, do you think I can be a director myself?"
"Well...ah?" Fang Zhuomin looked at Ye Cheng in surprise. He thought he had heard it wrong. "I said, Mr. Ye, you have been studying directorship courses for less than 3 months, and you just want to direct and make a movie by yourself?"
Ye Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, I want to give it a try."
Fang Zhuomin held his forehead and said, "You treat it as a director as a play house. At your current level, you can only shoot an MV at most."
Ye Cheng smiled lazyly and said, "That's why I came to you. I control the general direction of the video. Please help me check the specific technical things."
"I think you're crazy." Fang Zhuomin shook his head repeatedly.
Ye Cheng said: "Don't rush to draw a conclusion, you can finish reading the script first."
Fang Zhuomin couldn't stand him, so he had to read the script carefully obediently, and was soon attracted by the story inside. Then he looked at the shooting script while eating noodles. The more he watched, the more surprised he was. Because Ye Cheng's storyboards were very standard and the various details were well designed, this skill was better than many veterans who had been filming for several years.
If you only read the script, Fang Zhuomin would only think that Ye Cheng is a good screenwriter. But with such a perfect storyboard script in front of him, Fang Zhuomin had to admit that Ye Cheng has the talent to be a director, and even has the potential to be an excellent director than him.
You should know that Ye Chengcai systematically studied the director course for more than two months and was often delayed by other work, so he was able to make complete storyboard scripts by himself. Fang Zhuomin thought that he had just started studying for more than two months at school, which made him quite frustrated in comparison. Could it be that the difference between geniuses and mortals?
A genius yarn!
Ye Cheng followed the video of "My Savage Girlfriend" and wrote it for half a month before converting the video footage into a text script. He had to carry Gaoyuanyuan on his back to work secretly.
Ye Cheng touched Fang Zhuomin in a daze and asked, "How do you feel?"
Fang Zhuomin chewed the noodles and nodded, "It's okay, the script is well written, which is different from the popular youth comedy now."
"Then do you agree?" Ye Cheng smiled.
"What do you agree with?" Fang Zhuomin asked.
Ye Cheng said: "Agree to be my deputy director and help me check it."
Fang Zhuomin said funny: "It's up to you, anyway, it's not me who lost money after the filming."
