If anyone else had dared to raise any conditions when faced with the invitation from the CCTV Film and Television Department, they would have simply agreed happily.
However, Guo Fengyun didn't think it was inappropriate. Zheng Qian was no longer what he used to be and he was qualified to negotiate terms.
"It depends on the quality of the script, but it can reach up to five million. As for Chu Youbin's salary, we can give him 70,000 per episode."
Guo Fengyun said: "This is already a very high salary for Chu Youbin."
Seventy thousand an episode is indeed a very high salary. At present, it is definitely the price of a first-line actor.
In the previous life, the male protagonist of "Bright Sword" also received similar salary. Later, after the work was aired, in just three years, the salary continued to skyrocket, once as high as 160,000 per episode, which more than doubled.
It can be seen that Guo Fengyun's sincerity is enough, but even so, Chu Youbin still has to look at the dishes. For such an experienced actor, the quality of the work is above all else.
As for buying the script of "Bright Sword" for 5 million, to be honest, Zheng Qian was a little disdainful.
Now his songs have been offered for three million, and the script of "Bright Sword", which took more effort to arrange than the songs, is just this amount, Zheng Qian feels it is a bit low.
But in fact, this price is already sky-high in the world of screenwriters. Even if the most popular screenwriters are invited to write, it is only 50,000 for an episode. If you want to get 5 million, you have to write at least 100 episodes.
.
According to Zheng Qian's estimation, the script of "Bright Sword" is less than 30 episodes. Based on the salary of 5 million, one episode is as high as hundreds of thousands, which is more than the male protagonist's salary.
Of course, Guo Fengyun said that depending on the quality of the script, he can get up to 5 million, so he doesn't really want to give 5 million, maybe it's just to make a big pie.
Zheng Qian paused and asked: "I have a question, why did you ask me to write a script?"
Guo Fengyun said with a smile: "You have written "A World Without Thieves" before. Although you are a co-writer with Feng Xiaolong, you are well-known in the industry. You changed 80% of the entire script. Besides, you are the winner of this year's Galaxy Award.
The winner has also written a series of famous songs such as "The Soul of the Chinese Army" and has a very high literary foundation. Of course, I will not hide it from you. In addition to you, our film and television department also asked two other screenwriters to write this
However, Teacher Chu Youbin is not satisfied with the script. After much thought, we still feel that it is not a bad idea to let you try it."
Zheng Qian suddenly realized and said with a smile: "If you dare, I'm just a spare tire."
"You can't talk nonsense about this."
Guo Fengyun said seriously: "You are worth a thousand dollars per word, up to five million scripts. I have never seen it in all my years of working in the industry, and others can't compare with it."
"Okay, I've written this down."
Zheng Qian said: "But in terms of actors, I think several actors in our company are also very suitable."
Guo Fengyun said with a smile: "Meng Haitao? Of course, he is a good actor, as much as he gets."
After the call ended, Zheng Qian's thoughts were racing.
"Bright Sword" ranks first among mainland war movies. It is no joke that "Bright Sword" has been replayed more than 3,000 times.
In addition, the military drama "Soldiers Assault" is also good. Many good men chose to join the army after watching this TV series.
What's more, there is also the spy drama "Latent", which directly promoted Sun Leihong to the status of a first-line actor. When he was the most popular, his salary even exceeded that of Li Youbin, making him at the top of the industry.
There are so many good scripts. When Zheng Qian thinks about them for a moment, he feels like countless pictures are flying in his mind.
If Yuexiang Media wants to become bigger and stronger, it cannot sit still and wait for death. "Bright Sword" can be taken out and handed over to CCTV for filming. As long as it is famous, Zheng Qian wants the company to digest the subsequent scripts. By then, with "Bright Sword"
"With the accumulated popularity, it is absolutely easy to raise investment for a drama.
As soon as he thought about this, Zheng Qian wanted to open his laptop and start working immediately.
But he quickly suppressed this impulse.
It's really a hard life.
It's vacation time now. If I don't think about relaxing, I still think about work.
However, after visiting the Xile Prairie and the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin, Zheng Qian had a rest and was almost relaxed. Especially when he found reporters following and filming outside the hotel, he ended his self-driving trip.
The next day, Fei Fei was asked to drive back to the capital, while he, Zhang Guoran, and Hu Liang took a plane back.
After arriving at the company, Zheng Qian asked Ren Xin to prepare Hu Liang's agency contract, signed Hu Liang for five years, and assigned Hu Liang an agent.
Zheng Qian has no commitment to release records or albums for Hu Liang, but he will rely on his own resources and network advantages to open up more barriers for Hu Liang, allowing Hu Liang to try various variety shows in the next few years, and even plans to let Hu Liang
Liang succeeded him as a judge for "Avenue of Stars".
This is all for later.
It is worth mentioning that after Shang Jingyun resigned as general manager and became the general manager of Qianhua Consulting and Investment Company, Lin Qianqian asked a headhunting company to recruit a well-known big man with a high status in the industry.
, Qi Zhongcai.
Qi Zhongcai is in his early 40s this year and has been immersed in the entertainment industry for nearly two decades. He was once the second-in-command of the famous film and television production company Brightline Media. He single-handedly produced many movies and TV series such as "Nezha Haohai", and was later promoted to management
It can also be said that Mingxian Media is organized in an orderly manner.
In the past two years, my family ethics were not harmonious, and I had a little green hair. I saw right and wrong for a while, quit my job, and followed Tony Leung's example and went to London to feed the pigeons.
This feeding lasted two years.
Now that I have figured it out, I am back to work.
Although he was abroad, Qi Zhongcai still clearly saw the turmoil in the domestic entertainment industry. After repeated consideration and thinking in the market, he finally accepted the warm invitation of the headhunting company and joined Yuexiang Media as the general manager.
"There is no smoke without fire. There are indeed some conflicts in Mr. Qi's family, but they have been resolved long ago. The reason why he stayed out for two years was because he signed a non-competition agreement. Now that the two-year statute of limitations has expired, Mr. Qi has returned and joined Yuexiang Media
, it’s a matter of course.”
Shang Jingyun took out an investigative report and gave it to Zheng Qian.
His job as the general manager of a consulting company has not been in vain, and he has already initially developed intelligence investigation capabilities.
Zheng Qian picked up the report and read it for a while, and couldn't help but laugh.
He has not seen this Qi Zhongcai yet, but looking at the photos, this Qi Zhongcai has a small bunch of white hair on his forehead, which makes Zheng Qian feel somewhat similar to Liu Qiangdong in his previous life.
According to the information, there is a beautiful wife who is ten years younger than her at home, but she has no children.
Zheng Qian read the investigation document carefully and was a little surprised for a moment: "This is too bloody..."
Shang Jingyun also smiled bitterly.
This time Qi Zhongcai married a beautiful wife, whom everyone envied, and had a great career and love. Unfortunately, ten years later, he discovered that his beautiful wife had cheated on the chairman of the company.
The most speechless thing is that the reason why the two of them got together was inseparable from the chairman's matchmaking.
"No wonder."
After reading the investigation report, Zheng Qian couldn't help but sympathize with Qi Zhongcai. However, despite the ups and downs, he had to say that Qi Zhongcai was very capable, otherwise he would not have achieved the position of the second-in-command of Brightline Media.
"I have a worry now."
Zheng Qian knocked on the table and said: "Although Qi Zhongcai is a talented person, will he go against Brightline Media in official matters?"
"That won't happen, at least on the surface."
Shang Jingyun smiled and said: "Qi Zhongcai is very powerful. Even if he wants to take revenge, he has to improve the strength of Yuexiang Media. At least it has to be among the top three in the industry. After all, the strength of Mingxian Media is no less than that of Huaying Media.
I will never act rashly.”
Zheng Qian nodded: "Okay, then we will arrange a welcome party for Mr. Qi."
The welcome party was held soon, and Qi Zhongcai toasted to the colleagues of Yuexiang Media with a smile on his face, "Everyone, there is a time to ride the wind and waves, and sail directly to the sea. In the future, our goal is to make Yuexiang Media public!
Achieve miracles that no other company can accomplish!”
Qi Zhongcai's speech skills are very strong, and his bold words have impressed many colleagues, making everyone's blood boiling. They want to immediately punch Hua Ying and kick the bright line, and he is the only one who dominates.
After a while, Qi Zhongcai finished his speech, came to Zheng Qian's side, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, I have read all the company's plans. If nothing else, I will definitely be the first to respond to Mr. Zheng's instructions.
If there is anything you don’t understand in the future, please ask Mr. Zheng to speak up.”
"That's easy to say." Zheng Qian said with a smile: "Don't call me Mr. Zheng, I have no position in the company, just call me Zheng Qian."
Qi Zhongcai shook his head, gave a thumbs up and said, "You are like this in my heart."
Just kidding, you own 65% of the company's shares. Even if you don't have a position, who dares to treat you like an ordinary artist?
What's more, Zheng Qian's work is the most critical factor for Yuexiang Media to be what it is today.
Qi Zhongcai's future development plans in the company will almost always revolve around Zheng Qian. Of course Qi Zhongcai will follow Zheng Qian's lead.
In addition to welcoming General Manager Qi Zhongcai, there were also many other department managers who had just joined the welcome party.
At the same time, Lin Qianqian also announced that the new office building has been decorated and some employees have been dispatched to move in. In the spring of next year, everyone will go to work in the new office building.
The office address is in Junli Building, located on Dongzhimen South Street.
The entire building is 20 stories high. It is a Class A office building integrating guest rooms, offices, restaurants, entertainment, and conference facilities. The surrounding environment and facilities are complete, making it a true urban business center.
Zheng Qian is still very satisfied with this place.
This was selected by Ren Xin and supervised by Shang Jingyun.
Speaking of which, Ren Xin has recently been very familiar with the real estate market in Beijing. After Zheng Qian came back from his self-driving trip, he immediately spread all the real estate projects in front of Zheng Qian for Zheng Qian to choose from.
"This is Jianggao Wangfu Apartment, where Wang Fei lives. The market price is 15 million. It covers an area of 700 square meters. It is a three-story marquis-style villa with a large swimming pool in the courtyard..."
"This is a villa in Ming Cuiyuan. It is 706 square meters. It is decorated in a European luxury style. It has a gorgeous powder room and cloakroom. The living room is also very large. The market price is nearly 30 million. Well, Wang Fei also bought a set here."
"This is Jiameilin Garden, and it is also a villa. It is near the new city. It has not yet opened for sale, but the house price in the nearby community is already more than 10,000 yuan per square meter..."
Ren Xin listed many real estate projects for Zheng Qian. Since they were for self-occupation, all the properties listed were villas and normal apartments. Their safety was not guaranteed and they were not suitable for Zheng Qian to live in now.
Unless it's a community with official security arrangements like Zheng Qian's residence for the General Secretary's family.
But people, making money is for enjoyment. If you don't buy a villa, I'm sorry Zheng Qian can earn 100 million in half a year.
It is both buying a house and investing.
However, Zheng Qian was a little surprised when he heard Sister Xin's introduction.
Wang Fei is really rich. Wang Fei has bought almost every villa group with a name in the capital. In the capital alone, she has bought five villas, all of which are about 700 square meters.
And according to Sister Xin, Wang Fei almost always bought more than one house in various provinces overseas, including several in Hong Kong.
Zheng Qian was sour.
This is the income of Hong Kong’s top artists.
I am afraid that the income growth of mainland artists will not be able to keep up with it in a few years.
——————
"It's useless to talk." Zheng Qian called Fei Fei, and together with Ren Xin, drove the company's executive car Bentley Yazhi to these villa areas to view houses.
The Hummer H2 we drove before had to be maintained due to the high mileage it had driven on the self-driving tour, so the three of us could only go there in an executive car.
Coincidentally, as soon as he arrived at Jianggao Wangfu Apartment, Zheng Qian noticed that the license plate number of the car in front of him seemed familiar, so he asked Fei Fei to press the horn twice. Then Zheng Qian got out of the car and waved to the front.
Under the stunned expression of the security guard, two figures stepped out of the commercial nanny car in front. One was Wang Fei wearing sunglasses, and the other was actor Lin Yipeng. Their relationship was just exposed in the second half of this year. In the industry
has been widely circulated.
Everyone said that Wang Fei was eager to retire from the music scene because she met her true destiny.
Zheng Qian was not surprised. He stepped forward and greeted Wang Fei with a smile: "Sister Fei, what a coincidence."
After speaking, he took the initiative to smile at Lin Yipeng and said, "Hello, brother Peng."
Lin Yipeng smiled and nodded.
He is tall and tall, not particularly handsome in appearance, but very elegant. Like Li Youbin, he is a very well-known actor at the movie king level at the moment.
Wang Fei looked surprised. She looked at the Bentley behind and asked, "Your car? I've never seen it before. Do you live here too?"
"That's not true. I just came here and was planning to buy some real estate. I saw your car, so I came over to say hello to Sister Fei. This will save you from scolding me for not knowing etiquette later." Zheng Qian explained with a smile.
Wang Fei smiled: "You are the little king of Asia, who dares to scold you! But you have chosen a good place. This Jianggao Prince's Mansion is in a good location and has a high occupancy rate. Many celebrities and rich gentry in the capital live there.
here."
When talking about real estate investment and buying and selling, Wang Fei obviously became energetic and asked her boyfriend Lin Yipeng to take the car back first. She followed Zheng Qian's executive car and prepared to take Zheng Qian to visit the real estate market in person, completely ignoring Lin Yipeng's ugly look.
