Chapter 381 The most important thing in the film and television company

Peng Yan was obviously getting nervous.

At this time, he began to worry about gains and losses.

What if Chen Fan proposed to let him join Sheng Tang?
Do you accept or reject it?
If I hadn't met Chen Fan at the beginning, Chen Fan wouldn't have said that he would play the role of the captain of the Dragon Kingdom.

Then I can resolutely reject the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

But just now Chen Fan has agreed to play the role of the captain of the Dragon Kingdom. This role is already close at hand. This sense of gain and loss is like an ant crawling on your heart, itchy and uncomfortable.

Chen Fan felt quite interesting when he saw the appearance of the three people in front of him who dared not show their arrogance.

At this time, he experienced a touch of capital pleasure.

If Cantonese Films had the strength to invest a billion dollars in movies, would they still be so nervous?
Maybe he won't even give himself the chance to meet this time.

"Don't be nervous, I think this is a good thing for you."

"Because "Captain of the Dragon Kingdom" is a series of movies, if Mr. Peng is willing to make this movie, you must sign a seven-film contract."

"That is to say, Mr. Peng, if you want to cooperate with Sheng Tang in seven films, of course the salary will not be less for you, so please rest assured."

Peng Yan, his manager and Liu Zhidong were completely shocked.

What does the prosperous Tang Dynasty mean?
Chen Fan wants to directly sign a seven-movie contract with Peng Yan?
What if Peng Yan is allowed to make a bad film?
At this time, they really couldn't believe this pie in the sky.

"Don't get me wrong, I promise that the next six movies will be related to "Captain of the Dragon Kingdom", and each movie will have an investment of hundreds of millions or more."

"You don't think I spend so much money just to make bad movies?"

After Chen Fan said that, the three of them felt a little more at ease.

But then he was shocked by what Chen Fan described.

Six movies related to "Captain Dragon Kingdom"?

Wouldn't that be a series?
Chen Fan is so sure that he will shoot it?
What if no one buys the movie "Captain of the Dragon Kingdom"?
This situation is very common in the film and television industry!
The first movie had a low box office and even made a loss. How could it be possible to continue making movies in this state?
But since Chen Fan said that the investment of each film is more than several hundred million, as long as Peng Yan's salary is guaranteed, even if the film loses money, it should not affect Peng Yan, right?

At present, Long Guo has been enthusiastic about shooting blockbuster movies in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is also a good thing for actors to be able to participate in blockbuster movies all the time.

At this time, Peng Yan's agent appeared on the stage,

"Mr. Chen, in this case, our Peng Yan is naturally willing to cooperate with you, but everything must be written in the contract, how about?"

"Of course, it is necessary."

Several people discussed it again and finally settled on a contract.

The general content is that Peng Yan and Sheng Tang have signed a seven-film contract. Sheng Tang needs to notify Peng Yan more than two months in advance. Peng Yan must free up the schedule without special reasons.

Seven movies, each with an investment amount of no less than [-] million.

Peng Yan's first movie salary was 500 million, and the salary for each subsequent movie increased by 20%.

Peng Yan needs to ensure his body shape and acting condition, as well as his dedicated work attitude.

The liquidated damages for both parties is [-] million.

……

Lin Zixuan didn't speak during the whole process, just pretending to be serious, but actually watching everything in a daze.

Before leaving, Chen Fan told Peng Yan that "Captain of the Dragon Kingdom" is expected to start filming during the summer vacation.

Peng Yan happened to not be taking any roles during this period, so he was going to study the script carefully.

Liu Zhidong was also on hand, patting his chest and promising that he would wholeheartedly support Peng Yan and Sheng Tang's work and would not hold them back.

A liquidated damages of [-] million is not a small amount for Yuefeng Films and Peng Yan at this time.

But for the seven movies, the salary alone is about 7000 million, which is also a huge profit for Peng Yan.

And if it is true, as Chen Fan said, that each of the seven movies has an investment of more than [-] million, then after all this, Peng Yan's career will definitely grow.

After Chen Fan and Lin Zixuan left, Liu Zhidong couldn't wait to discuss the contract renewal with Peng Yan, which also made Peng Yan slightly disgusted.

But Liu Zhidong had to do this.

Now the contract between Yuefeng Films and Peng Yan is only three years old, while the contract between Chen Fan and Peng Yan is ten years old.

That is to say, if Tang Dynasty was relatively slow in producing films, it would be ten years after Peng Yan finished filming these seven films.

Not to mention ten years later, but three years later because of the popularity of this movie, Peng Yan is unwilling to renew his contract with Cantonese Films. Wouldn't it be a big loss for Cantonese Films?

Although Peng Yan felt a little uncomfortable, based on Liu Zhidong's performance just now, coupled with Liu Zhidong's repeated assurances and the binding force of the actor-level contract, the two parties renewed the contract for another ten years.

In other words, the contract between Peng Yan and Yuefeng Films was extended to 13 years, and the liquidated damages were also increased to [-] million.

Chen Fan and Lin Zixuan didn't know all this.

Even if they know, they don't care.

At this time Lin Zixuan was extremely curious, no matter what he thought, he felt that Peng Yan and Yuefeng Films had made a profit.

"Mr. Chen, I feel a little aggrieved for doing this today, especially when they didn't trust us just now."

"I went to the entertainment industry to look carefully, and I don't believe that I can't find a more suitable actor than Peng Yan. When the time comes, we spend money to bring him into the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Isn't this one of our own?"

Chen Fan laughed. In the eyes of outsiders, Peng Yan did take advantage of this kind of thing.

He glanced at Lin Zixuan, thinking that he might use this model to sign artists in the future, so he planned to tell him the trick.

"Zixuan, what do you think is the most important thing for us in the Tang Dynasty to produce movies in the Marvel Universe?"

Lin Zixuan frowned. Aren't the most important issues such as investment, actors, and directors?

Chen Fan didn't wait for his answer, and then took it.
"The most important thing is actually the IP of Marvel Universe!"

"As long as we hold the Marvel Universe film series in our hands, choose the most suitable actors to shoot each film, and establish the framework of the Marvel Universe, then in the future, it will not be the actors who make the Marvel Universe, but the Marvel Universe who will make the actors!"

"But in the early days, the most important thing for us is the actors. We must find the actors who are most suitable for the movie, and let them perform our Marvel universe story well, so that we can achieve the future I just mentioned."

"So at this time, it doesn't actually matter whether the actor is from our Tang Dynasty. What's important is that he can make a good movie. As long as the actor fits the role, we will try to sign him for the next few movies. , after all, for a series of movies, changing the protagonist is a last resort."

Lin Zixuan was a little enlightened. He understood what Chen Fan meant, and a door seemed to open in his heart.

The universe-level series of movies is indeed different from the ordinary series of movies. There are a lot of doorways in it.

Only the founder Chen Fan can explain clearly what is inside.

Seeing Lin Zixuan's enlightened expression, Chen Fan smiled and said:
"One more thing, this series of movies takes ten years to shoot, do you think it's useful for us to sign an actor?"

"Nowadays, the longest contract between film and television companies and actors is ten years. If we sign Peng Yan and make him famous in ten years, he will also complete the series for us. If he does not renew the contract by then, you will Is there any way?"

"So, as I said just now, for film and television companies, IP is really the most important. With IP in hand, you can become any actor without depending on his face!"

Lin Zixuan was completely convinced.
