Chapter 14 Bad Monkey Films is established
The "Comet" project is led by Qu Li, and almost all employees participate in the dividend sharing. The specific share ratio is the company's 3rd floor, Qu Li 30%, Xu Zheng 20%, Huang Bo and other actors 10%, and Ning Hao is responsible for inviting King Yan to give 10%.
Screenwriters are additionally paid by the company.
Qu Li and Ning Hao formed a partnership to form a Bad Monkey Film and Television Company. Ning Hao and the others held 70% of the shares, and Qu Li held 30% of the shares. The "Comet" project is considered Bad Monkey's first film. Because it is Ning Hao's company, they
No dividends will be distributed in the project.
There is not much money to shoot the movie. In addition to the actors' remuneration and the camera storage equipment, the crew of "The Stone" can be borrowed for everything else, and the cost is very low.
After "Stone" was completed, there was still 500,000 left. I didn't want to give back 500,000, and I didn't want to get a bad reputation, so I had to rack my brains to find a way.
"Does Brother Bo have confidence in "Night Sky" and "Xian'er"?"
"Of course!"
"Do you think Huayi has confidence in these two songs?"
"What do you mean?" Everyone was puzzled.
"I want Bad Monkey to take over the distribution business of "The Stone", and then make Bo Ge a well-known singer before the release of "The Stone", and also launch online promotion and word-of-mouth marketing..."
“Is online publicity useful?”
"It still depends on whether Huayi approves it."
"Let's communicate with Huayi first. If it doesn't work, we'll return it."
After discussing it for a long time, we designed a publicity plan that was acceptable, and then contacted the person in charge of the project at Huayi, not the producer of the film.
The phone call from Ning Hao was very unexpected. The film and television industry is full of stench, and it is almost an open secret that the director team enriches themselves in the movie. It is really surprising to meet a "clean" team this time.
"I think your production cost can be a little more. For example, how can it be that your rent is only one thousand a month, while it costs ten thousand for us to rent a house there."
"Then I'll do the math again?"
"Don't cause trouble for yourself. Re-signing the contract will be very troublesome."
"I know." Ning Hao didn't expect such a result.
"This is such a big deal, actually..."
No one expected that the people from Huayi would be so kind and almost taught Ning Hao step by step how they cheated the crew of their money. Of course, the premise was that the people arranged by Liu Tianwang had almost no say, and they had other ideas from the beginning.
, so the follow-up work can be easily carried out.
After reorganizing the crew's finances, the accounts were finally balanced, and about 500,000 cash was deposited into the company account of Bad Monkey Pictures, which was registered by the agency. At the same time, King Yan came over as promised, and the "Comet" project in charge of Qu Li was officially
start up.
In terms of actresses, Xu Zheng's wife Taohong is considered the most famous for her appearance and acting skills. The others were all found separately. They are not considered newcomers, but they have no fame bonus.
The whole "Comet" project finally has a famous actor, and everyone squeezed 10% of the share for him. Although Yan Wang has not proven his box office appeal, whoever makes him famous, a "Conquer" can.
Let him eat it for half his life.
Perhaps because of the short time, Ning Hao did not do post-production, but stayed on the crew to help Qu Li. There were very few scenes during the day and were completed in a day or two. Most of the scenes at night were relatively simple, similar to shooting short films.
Li already had a picture in his mind, which can be said to be full of imagination. He knew the effect of his final image. After splitting the script, he was able to shoot with ease.
Once again, this is a movie with a lot of imagination, but not very difficult to shoot. It is difficult to see a director’s ability through this movie. Just like "This Man from Earth" has a global box office revenue of 350 million US dollars, but that
The director is still a small director after more than ten years.
Because the difficulty is low, it is very suitable for an experienced layman like Qu Li. He also has advantages. The art design and animation of the entire movie are better than those of the original work, and the actors are several levels better than the American movie.
After seven uneventful nights, "Comet" was successfully completed. There was no finishing party. Everyone just found a better hotel and had a good meal. The time came in 2006. The post-editing of the film was handed over to Ning
Hao, it has been more than two months since he came out, and Ma Daba has helped him so much, so he has to meet him.
"How are you doing there? Are you still busy?" Qu Li called Chen Danlin.
"Not bad, sales in December reached 400,000 again."
In November, the sales volume of Danlin women's clothing store was only 320,000, compared with 40,000 this month, the increase is quite large.
“Does this include Xiangyun Men’s Wear and Jumei?”
"Not included, those two stores add up to less than 50,000. By the way, Taobao wants me to be their seller spokesperson. It is said that I will be given an annual salary of one million."
"Wow, that's amazing!"
"I haven't agreed yet. I feel unreliable." Chen Danlin feels that she is an ordinary girl. In reality, there are many prettier girls than her. Why should they give her a million-dollar annual salary? There is no such thing as a pie in the sky. Everything is perfect.
Rely on your own efforts.
"Well, I'll go to Hangzhou with you and see what they say."
"Is this appropriate?"
"I can probably understand their thinking. I didn't cooperate with Mango Channel a few days ago to create a super seller, and the promotion said that I would be given an annual salary of one million. Your image and temperament are much better than that person, and we are all ordinary people.
Having grown to this point, it may be more convincing and attract more people to join Taobao and become sellers.”
"But our investment is actually quite large. How can ordinary people have our funds and how can they do publicity online?"
"Taobao doesn't care and won't publicize the truth, so giving you one million should be real, just to let you perform like an actor, and Taobao is really a good opportunity for ordinary people. We even thought at the beginning
Even if you don’t have money for publicity, you can still make five or six thousand a month by relying on Taobao!”
"You mean I can take over the Taobao contract?"
"Well, after you accept the contract, you will definitely get more traffic support."
"Okay then, let's go to Hangzhou together."
So the two made an appointment and took the train to Hangzhou. The plane was too expensive and they were reluctant to part with it, but they bought a sleeper berth, which even Chen Danlin felt was luxurious.
After not seeing each other for two months, the two met in a hotel. Qu Li quickly walked over and hugged Chen Danlin tightly, "You miss me so much!"
"Let go, there are so many people." Chen Danlin is young and thin-skinned after all.
But Qu Li really misses her, and he has long mastered the essential skill of being shameless. Many heads of large companies and Internet celebrities have been slapped in the face, but they don't care and still come out to deceive and abduct her. It can be seen that there is no need
Face is one of the standard features of success.
Seeing that she couldn't break away, Chen Danlin buried her head in Qu Li's arms and hugged her quietly at the door of the hotel for several minutes.
"Sir, excuse me, why don't you enter the room..."
"You are single, right? You don't have a girlfriend yet? Do you know what love is?" There were ignorant people around, so Qu Li had no choice but to let go and said something to the waiter. His level was worrying!
