After all, there are differences between men and women. After Chen Feng and Li Manyu determined the general framework of the contract and talked about the general plot of the movie, they ended the meeting.
Chen Feng put Li Manyu into the car, watched her start the car and leave, and then got into his own car to go home.
Summit Entertainment's signing of a big-name actress like Lee Manyu will undoubtedly be of iconic significance.
Early the next morning, Li Manyu came with her lawyer as promised, but on the Summit Entertainment side, Chen Feng did not personally participate in the negotiations, but asked Su Qian and Jia Yong to talk to their lawyers.
Li Manyu did not leave the show in person, but took the initiative to discuss the script of "Sweet Honey" with Chen Feng in detail. After she went back last night, she immediately read the script of "Sweet Honey" from beginning to end and confirmed that this movie is indeed a good drama.
.But she still had some doubts and objections about some content and lines, so she wanted to discuss it in detail with Chen Feng.
As a movie queen, and as the heroine of this "Sweet Honey" movie, Li Manyu has the qualifications and rights to discuss the script with Chen Feng. Even if there are some unreasonable or inappropriate things that she feels are inappropriate, she can also confidently ask for certain adjustments.
modifications.
The two talked about the script in Chen Feng's office for almost an hour. After Chen Feng explained it to her, she was quite satisfied with it and did not make any requests to change the lines.
Chen Feng revised the play very carefully, combining it with the original work and adding elements of this time and space era. In order to avoid errors and omissions, he revised it for two or three months and even checked it
Many times.
After Chen Feng finished discussing the script with Li Manyu, the lawyer she hired also reached an agreement on the first draft of the contract with Summit Entertainment.
Chen Feng and Li Manyu had read the first draft of the contract drawn up by both parties, and both said there were no problems. It was written according to the general framework agreed upon by the two last night. Although there were some differences in some details, they were all within the scope agreed by both parties.
For example, Li Manyu's original requirement for liquidated damages was 30 million, but Summit Entertainment insisted on 50 million. Although it was increased by 20 million, the liquidated damages were still within Li Manyu's tolerance. What's more, if there are no special circumstances, within the past three years,
It is impossible for her to take the initiative to terminate her contract with Summit Entertainment.
So, Chen Feng and Li Manyu soon signed this contract. Su Qian found a camera and took a few photos of Chen Feng and Li Manyu in Chen Feng's office. They will then be on the official website of Summit Entertainment
Announced on.
The official website of Summit Entertainment was established at the beginning of the year. This aspect was implemented and managed by Su Qian on her own initiative. So far, the official website of Summit Entertainment is quite similar, with a website message function, many Chen Feng
fans have left messages on it.
If there is any news from Summit Entertainment that is announced to the public, it will be announced on the official website. In addition, of course, there is also the official WeChat account. The official WeChat account of Summit Entertainment was also established after Su Qian came, and she was also responsible for it.
Manager. Currently, Su Qian is in charge of Summit Entertainment’s external communications, especially the Internet, while Li Dazhi and Wenxiu are in charge.
After Summit Entertainment signed a three-year contract with Lee Manyu, it also signed a contract with Chen Feng for the filming of "Sweet Honey".
Chen Feng signed a contract with her as the crew leader of "Sweet Honey", with a salary of 8 million. This salary is not high, but it cannot be said to be very low. Maggie Lee's previous highest salary was 20 million, but that was a commercial movie. As Chen Feng's film is considered a literary film, the actors have to reduce their pay. In addition, Li Manyu has stopped acting for two years, and the pay can no longer be calculated according to her highest salary standard at the time. 8 million is not low. Of course. , 20% of which will be returned to the company.
After the male and female protagonists of "Sweet Honey", Chen Feng's ambitious film, were confirmed, of course the crew had to be formally assembled.
First of all, there are the professional technical staff such as the crew's photographers, lighting engineers, prop masters, etc. To make this movie well, the photographers are also very important.
Now that Liu Gan is on the set of "Crazy Stone", he definitely can't hold two jobs, and "Sweet Honey" doesn't have time to wait for him to finish his work before starting filming.
Therefore, Chen Feng had already decided to hire someone else early on. Chen Feng took a fancy to Fan Dongping, the photographer of "Eight-Story Demon Tower". He was considered Chen Dongsheng's official photographer, but he had basically nothing to do with Chen Dongsheng in the past few years. Achievement.
However, when filming "Butterfly Fairy", he was also the main photographer, and he won an international film photography award for this. His photography ability is highly recognized in the industry.
In the past few years, he has worked as a photographer for other productions and filmed for other directors, but without exception, he has never won any awards. It is of course impossible to say that his photography skills have declined. The problem is that On the director of the crew.
No matter how good your photography skills are, the essence of a drama is still the content of the drama itself. No matter how beautiful your pictures are, if the plot is bad and the actors' acting skills are bad, it will still be a bad movie in the end.
Fan Dongping encountered such a situation. Since he won the photography award at the Venice Film Festival a few years ago, he has not won any significant awards even in China in the following years. This makes him feel very bad. .If you are making movies in the industry, if you are a director, you may make one after your peak, but if you are the same as a photographer, it is really not a matter of ability. It is a matter of luck.
Especially this time, "The Eight-Story Demon Tower", which both he and Chen Dongsheng had high hopes for, was originally expected to be a box office hit and even set a record, but it turned out to be sniped by "Charlotte", although in the end it was The box office is not low, but it is far lower than expected, and it can only be regarded as a small profit. More importantly, compared with "Charlotte", it has become a bad film among bad films, and even his photographer has followed suit. Unlucky. Some venomous netizens criticized me for my poor photography skills.
This made Fan Dongping feel very depressed, and besides, he had no job. Although people familiar with the industry knew that his photography skills were actually very good, he had been shooting one movie after another in the past few years, which basically did not make any hits. Movies, especially the big-budget "Eight-Story Demon Tower", also failed. How could the generally superstitious industry insiders dare to hire him?
Therefore, after Fan Dongping finished filming "Eight-Story Demon Tower", he has been without any work for several months. Although he still has some savings, the life of the family is fine. But his wife at home has obviously grown up. He had an opinion. As the backbone of the family, the husband of your wife, and the father of your sons and daughters, your biggest problem is that you cannot make money.
Just when Fan Dongping was hesitating whether to accept TV or advertising work, Chen Feng called him.
At first, when Chen Feng announced his family status, he still didn't believe it. When Chen Feng repeatedly stated that he was indeed Chen Feng, the director of "Charlotte Trouble", he half-believed it. And Chen Feng called
The purpose is very simple, just to recruit him, saying that I am going to shoot a new movie and I am short of a photographer, and I hope he can come over. If more specific, I can have an interview.
After all, there are differences between men and women. After Chen Feng and Li Manyu determined the general framework of the contract and talked about the general plot of the movie, they ended the meeting.
