"The reason why the box office is so high is that we promoted it well in the early stage, and we did not sign the agreement and the agreement was invalid. This money should not be given."

"Step Chow trusts you, so he has not signed the agreement. You are betrayal in the blink of an eye and don't even talk about the most basic credibility in doing business!"

"We do things according to the contract and say that everything else is useless. Don't look at the box office so high. If we remove all costs, we don't make much money, and the profits are not reached 500 million."

"ha!"

Stephen Chow's representative was so excited that he said, "You guys are playing with changing concepts now. What you said at the beginning was clearly a box office, but it turned into profits when you said it?"

"Whatever you say, this money will definitely not be given, so you can't give away guests!"

Wang Zhonglei's face darkened and he directly bombed the person out.

That's money! More than 80 million!

The popular "Journey to the West" at the beginning of the year was produced by Huayi. Before it was released, Wang Zhonglei had no confidence in the movie because Stephen Chow did not participate in the performance and was just a director.

He called and said, "If the box office of this movie exceeds 500 million, I will give you a percentage of dividends."

Then Huayi sent a email to Stephen Chow, and the two confirmed the matter through email, but did not sign the contract officially.

Because it was the honeymoon period at that time, the cooperation relationship was very good.

As a result, as soon as "Journey to the West" was released, it won a box office of 1.245 billion yuan. According to the promise, Huayi should give Stephen Chow 81.6 million!

People don't admit it anymore.

Later, Stephen Chow sued, but he didn't win the lawsuit, and he did not sign a formal agreement.

"Sir Stephen Chow, I'm sorry, I didn't talk, they didn't recognize him."

"It's okay, thank you for your hard work!"

Stephen Chow is not good at speaking, so he naturally finds someone to negotiate. When he receives the call, he is both angry and helpless.

This is money!

Stephen Chow likes money the most. He offended many people for this and suffered a lot of criticism, but he has never responded to it. What are the responses for different values?

"well……"

He suddenly thought of "Lost in Thailand". He didn't sign an agreement, but 99 Entertainment took the initiative to give Xu Zheng a red envelope of 40 million yuan, which made everyone angry.

He thought for a while and called Yu Jiajia.

...

The next day.

A low-key nanny car drove into headquarters 99. Stephen Chow wore a hat and mask, his gray hair was smooth, he was thin and careful, and he walked quickly to avoid the crowd and came to the office.

"Miss Yu!"

"Mr. Zhou!"

Stephen Chow always calls people a lady, and Yu Jiajia is even more unlikely to call him Stephen Chow, because he is the aunt himself.

"Tell me, I've been in the industry for so long, and I've seen you for a few times. Wow, your hair is not dyed?"

"Uh, used to this."

"It seems very vicissitudes like this. Are you 51 years old this year?"

“…”

The society may encounter the society cow and will be autistic every minute.

Yu Jiajia was quite emotional, feeling that the 1990s had not been around for long, Stephen Chow was in his early 50s - in another 10 years, he was 61, Andy Lau was 61, Jackie Chan was 69, Chow Yun-fat 68, Jackie Chan 62...

"I asked you before, and you said you had an appointment with Huayi first. Now you understand. Huayi is a petty family and can't make it long. My opinion is very simple. I will invest and publish the next film. Do you have any ideas now?"

"I have some ideas, I want to try out the mermaid theme."

"Mermaid?"

Yu Jiajia paused for a second and said, "Do you want special effects?"

"I think I should have it."

"Then the budget must be very high?"

"this……"

Stephen Chow really didn't like negotiations and stuttered: "This is usually the risk shared by multiple companies."

"No need. Since I invest, you will invest to the end. No matter how much the budget is, my family will be responsible. Similarly, I take such a big risk and you have to reduce your share.

I don’t want to waste time talking about this, 6% is the highest, just accept it!”

Stephen Chow was completely unacceptable to the crackling cannon-like style. After a long time of stuck, he said slowly: "I need to, I need to consider it."

"sure!"

This is over, Yu Jiajia didn't stay, and Stephen Chow left with tactfulness.

In fact, he is quite willing to cooperate with 99 Entertainment. 99 has a good reputation. As long as he has made an agreement in advance, he will never interfere in the production process. The promotion and theaters are all first-class, the boss is generous and has a great reputation.

…………

This year, there will be three films: "The Witch", "Super Body" and "Mechanical Girl", as well as "She" and "The Night of Comet Comes", while Hugelive will be released in "Black Robe Picket 2", "Black Eat Black 2" and "Soldier 2" online.

Hugelive is still mainly buying copyrights, and the number of self-produced dramas has not yet increased. However, due to the launch of one shot last year, members are growing in an orderly manner, with 4 million already, which is not as good as Netflix, but is also the second largest paid streaming media platform in North America.

It takes a lot of money to make a self-made drama, and later Netflix spends billions of dollars to film every year.

Where does this money come from?

Part of it is membership fees, part of it is bond issuance.

Hugelive has been recognized by big capital. A European investor is entering the market, and then going public. The IPO will raise a wave of funds first, and the listing will push up the stock price, and then issue a wave of bonds. The model will gradually stabilize.

Yu Jiajia pulled another cardboard box, and there were almost dozens of printed scripts thick inside.

These were all contributed by the screenwriters after she convened the industry union in Hong Kong in April. Money is the biggest driving force. Inspired by the iron rice bowl, Hong Kong screenwriters seemed to have burst into passion 20 years ago.

She asked for a violent and violent name.

So, what is the remake of the strange case of "Three Wolves", the urban version of "Jin Ping Mei", and the "Top Ten Witches of Nanyang" reappearing in the world, Onmyoji and Maoshan Taoist priests fought, and the descendant of Uncle Jiu consecrated and exorcized Hollywood female stars in the United States...

There is also a Marvel player who wrote a Hong Kong Superhero League, which contains Maoshan Taoist priests, Meishan Navy, Sword Immortal, and Horse Immortal. Everyone catches ghosts together.

The quality of these scripts is uneven, but their imagination and scale are very high. If you don’t enter the mainland, you will naturally let it go.

And no matter how Hong Kong movies are, they are a bit awesome and never use the routine of "white male and yellow female". They must be self-centered.

In Hong Kong movies, plots of beating foreigners can be seen everywhere, and you have to scold them while beating:

"Dead foreign devil!"

Later generations also had an independent film team online, which was also quite stylish and called Ru Studio.

"7 pieces, a little less!"

There are dozens of scripts, and after preliminary screening, only 7 are marked as qualified. Yu Jiajia plans to have 30 online movies launched next year, otherwise it will not be able to control those practitioners.

"Let it be more relaxed, continue to collect scripts, and tell them that as long as the script is selected, regardless of whether it is filmed or not, I will give the screenwriter money first!"

Yu Jiajia gave Jiahe instructions and continued to search for information.

Her plan is very clear, that is, the year after tomorrow, that is, the Best Actor Award at the Academy Awards in 2015!
Chapter completed!
