Chapter 150 Fair reward [First update](1/2)
"By the way, Qin, did you ask me to come?"
After talking about the [source code], Martin asked about the business.
"Pa..."
Qin Dong snapped his fingers at Nicole, gestured to the notebook on the table, took out the cigar and started cutting it.
"Martin..."
Nicole took the notebook and introduced it to Martin:
"Qin, he wrote two scripts for me. He wrote them two days ago. I saw them with my own eyes and watched him write them from beginning to end. Take a look."
Martin looked at Qin Dong in surprise. Although he had known about it and had seen him write a 200,000-word novel in three days, he wrote two scripts in two days. This speed...
He calmly looked at it carefully.
He didn't raise his head until more than half an hour later, looking at Qin Dong with admiration and joy on his face:
"Wow, Qin, I don't know how to express my feelings. I am really impressed by your talent..."
"I didn't expect you to be able to write such an authentic local drama script. This is different from previous co-productions."
"I think my decision to make great efforts to sign you was my wisest decision."
From Martin's perspective over many years, the script "Manchester by the Sea" is a standard award winning ticket.
[Advent] is also very interesting, and Martin thinks it is possible to win prizes.
"Okay, we're all acquaintances, don't say such polite words."
Qin Dong was not interested in these words.
If a woman, a beautiful woman, is still interested, let the man forget it.
"hehe..."
Martin was helpless, this man didn't like this, why don't young people nowadays like others to praise him?
"Martin, this is what Qin wrote to me."
Nicole reminded Martin.
"Oh, Nicole, of course I know, this is a deal between you and Qin, don't worry, the heroine must be yours."
Martin glanced at this woman, with an inexplicable meaning in her eyes. He didn't expect that this woman would be able to attract a young man like Qin after she got older.
This woman is making a fortune.
"hehe..."
Faced with such straightforward words as a transaction, Nicole smiled.
Don't worry about this, it's normal in Hollywood.
Just like many famous actresses who can start fights with men on the set, there are many things they know very well.
Whether it's Meryl or Julie, these two women whose acting skills are inferior to her have done this on the set.
Even if Julie is a woman who competes with Nicole, when she was the most popular in the 1990s, she would still sleep with everyone on the crew and crew for a good movie, just to win 100%.
The position of the heroine, this is the reality in Hollywood, the competition is fierce.
Later, there were news reports that after seeing the good script sent by her agent, Julie Roberts only said: "Who do I need to sleep with?"
It can be seen that even ordinary people know these key things, but they are considered normal in this society. Everyone just laughs and passes by, and then they still go to the cinema to buy tickets to watch the movie starring her.
Qin Dong heard this and interrupted:
"Then let's do it, Martin, you take two scripts back. By the way, they may overlap with a certain novel. You go and buy the copyright. It's not a famous novel. Whether you package it or not,
Leave a share for my company, I want to invest, and my remuneration will not be less."
Martin was relieved to hear that it was not a famous novel. If the subject matter was still a famous novel, the copyright would most likely have been taken over by a big company, which would make it difficult to negotiate.
"Okay, Qin, I'll take care of this. Just sit back and wait to receive the money."
When it comes to packing, Martin loves it.
"Well, ask Scarlett to come back to China with me tomorrow, and there will be a premiere in Kyoto three days later."
"No problem, I'll inform her when I get back."
Martin agreed to Qin Dong's requests one by one. Now that he was the God of Wealth, he had to provide for him.
Although Qin Dong won't make much money, as long as his movies can attract CAA actors, he will make money.
"Okay, if you have nothing to do, just leave."
Martin was speechless when he saw Qin Dong driving away people after finishing the conversation:
"No, I have something else to do."
"What's up?"
"Tom's business."
Qin Dong became more energetic when he said this:
"What? He agreed?"
Martin glanced at Nicole, who pretended not to see it and refused to leave. She had too many grudges and grudges with her ex-husband, so of course she wanted to hear about it.
This woman did this on purpose. Martin saw it and had no choice but to say:
"Agreed, but the two conditions you mentioned before must be added. The director and screenwriter conditions I offer you are 10% of the global box office share, and there is no other basic remuneration."
"If you don't meet the conditions, you will only get a salary of five million US dollars."
"The investors are Paramount and Tom's own company."
Qin Dong nodded. If he didn't meet the conditions for a sequel movie, he could get five million US dollars. He only had one movie in Hollywood that was released for only a few days.
If the conditions are met, what basic remuneration will be required? The box office share alone is enough.
One-tenth of the box office share is already a Hollywood pyramid.
As for 20% or 25%, few people have ever obtained it in history.
Box office share and profit share are two different things.
"In this case, Martin, you ask them to send someone to find me in five days. By then I will almost be able to write the script. Let them make a budget, contact the filming location and other preparations within half a month. If
It was hard to find the location, so we shot it directly with a green screen.”
"The filming will start in half a month. I am very pressed for time and have no time to waste time."
Qin Dong was thinking about the TV series he wanted to shoot for Mimi. He couldn't delay it any longer. The filming had to start before winter today.
After this woman came to the company, except for her appearance in the movie, she didn't play a one-minute role, and she had nothing else to do. Qin Dong felt sorry for the woman.
Martin is already used to Qin Dong's quick arrangements. He can't compare him with the director here, who takes months and years to prepare:
"Okay, but Qin, do you think this movie can be made into a co-production?"
Qin Dong looked at Martin speechlessly and said:
"What do you think?"
"hey-hey..."
Martin also laughed. He was stupid in asking this, and he was just asking it for Tom.
The systems of the two companies are different. Tom's series is a standard national propaganda film. It would be great if Qin Dong could make it. How could it be a co-production?
It's just that Tom is greedy for China's box office, so he asked Martin to ask, but Martin asked it as a matter of course. In fact, he had no intention of doing so. He understands the world better than Tom.
"Is there anything else?"
Qin Dong signaled that Martin could leave if nothing happened.
Martin was kicked out again, but he was convinced by Qin Dong. This man likes to be with women so much, hates men, and will never be with men when there is no business. He is really a standard real man:
"One more thing, Jennifer Lawrence, I have officially signed her to CAA."
After speaking, he looked at Qin Dong with a smile. He believed this news and this genius would definitely be interested.
Sure enough, Qin Dong showed a smile on his face:
"Oh, sure, Martin, the speed is good, where are the people?"
Martin laughed:
"What? You're not in a hurry to drive me away?"
Qin Dong shook his head helplessly:
"I didn't say anything about driving you away. Where is this woman? I didn't bring her with me?"
Martin shook his head:
"Bring it here. Where is it outside? Do you have any movie plans for her?"
Now Martin also understands Qin Dong's style.
