Chapter 587 Quarrel at the Celebration Banquet!!

The next day, Li Wei left the capital and entered the group to work on filming.

Jiang Feng himself is also going to attend a movie celebration banquet tonight. “Pacific Rim” is so successful, there is no reason not to hold a celebration banquet.

However, at this celebration banquet, a whirling dragon occurred.

Because this time their celebration banquet was held together with “Journey to the West”

Jiang Feng also made a guest appearance in “Journey to the West”, and at the same time, this movie was invested and produced by Huayi Brothers, so he knew that “Pacific Rim” was going to hold a celebration banquet, and Huayi Brothers also held it together.

are all celebration banquets in the circle, and holding them together can also facilitate the communication between the starring casts of the two movies.

The list of people invited to the celebration banquet will also be richer.

Jiang Feng also had no opinion on this, anyway, it was just a celebration banquet.

But it was at this celebration banquet that an unpleasant thing happened.

“What’s going on?”

Jiang Feng, who was originally chatting with Sun Honglei, Huang Bo, and Zhang Yongyun, heard the movement and came over to see what was going on.

“Zhou Xingchi and President Wang of Huayi had a verbal dispute.”

Xu Ke, who was invited over, explained to Jiang Feng.

“Transformers 2” is about to start, and it is not surprising that Xu Ke can appear at the celebration banquet.

After all, he is also a director, and it is not surprising that he came to the celebration banquet.

“What’s going on?”

He doesn’t yet know what’s going on.

“What else could it be? It’s the dispute over box office dividends. ”

“”Journey to the West” was invested by Huayi, and originally Huayi promised to give dividends to Zhou Xingchi.”

“Now the box office has exceeded 1 billion, according to what Mr. Wang said before, as long as the box office of director Xingzai’s film exceeds 500 million, he will be given 80 million dividends.”

“Before the start of shooting, because when talking about dividends, Zhou Xingchi believed in Huayi’s attitude, and did not state the 80 million dividend in the agreement, Huayi verbally agreed, and Xingzi did not plan an agreement.”

“But who knows, now the box office has long exceeded 500 million, but Huayi’s side said that there was no such clause in the contract agreement signed before, and refused to give 80 million dividends.”

Jiang Feng, who learned the situation from Xu Ke, understood it.

He has a good relationship with Xing Ye, although they have only worked together once.

But as Jiang Feng, who grew up watching Xingye movies, he definitely has more good impressions of Xingye than Huayi.

“Ouch~”

Seeing that the situation of this quarrel was getting more and more serious, Jiang Feng walked over.

“What’s going on, making a big noise at the celebration banquet?”

Jiang Feng asked about the situation.

“It’s that they are too bullying, when they asked me to make a movie, they said that the good box office exceeded 500 million to give me 80 million dividends, and now the box office has exceeded 1 billion, they said that it was only a verbal agreement, and they also sent me an electronic agreement, I did not sign the electronic agreement within the specified time, so now the dividends will not be given to me.”

Zhou Xingchi angrily explained the situation to Jiang Feng.

He knew that Jiang Feng had a very high status in the circle of the capital, and he also had a status in the circle, and he was also a capitalist.

He and Jiang Feng have a very good relationship, although it is only a cooperation.

But even this cooperation, their relationship can be so good, which shows that they are very close

Jiang Feng had already learned about this, so he asked Mr. Wang of the Huayi brothers: “Mr. Wang, has this matter been said?” ”

Wang Zhonglei is also particularly embarrassed now, 80 million is not 8,000 yuan.

Before he did have a verbal promise, he invested in Xingye to make a movie, what Zhou Xingchi wants to make, he will invest, and as long as the box office of this movie can exceed 500 million, he will give Zhou Xingchi 80 million dividends

The cost of the film is 130 million, and now the box office has exceeded 1 billion.

According to the current 40% share of the 1 billion box office, Huayi can get 400 million box office dividends this time.

400 million box office dividends, deducting the cost of 130 million, that is also 370 million net income.

And of this 370 million net income, give 80 million before the promised box office dividend to Zhou Xingchi, they Huayi can also earn 290 million.

What’s more, Jiang Feng remembered that the box office of this movie was almost the same as that of “Thailand”, which was more than 1.2 billion, which means that the current box office of 1 billion is only temporary.

It will be improved later, after all, the movie has only been released for about 20 days.

“Yes, we did say it, and we sent him the electronic agreement to sign.”

“But he didn’t sign the agreement, so we think he was not satisfied with the 80 million dividend.”

Wang Zhonglei said all these words, and Jiang Feng also understood it very well.

This shameless answer is all because of the 80 million dividend.

That’s 80 million, not 8,000.

“You think that Xing Ye thought that he was dissatisfied with the 80 million dividends so he didn’t sign it; But maybe Xing Ye trusts you and doesn’t sign it? ”

“After all, you have cooperated, so I think you are very honest, even if you don’t sign the agreement, you should pay him dividends at that time.”

“Of course, the agreement is not signed, this is a verbal agreement, of course, you can’t count.”

“If you really start a lawsuit, you Huayi will definitely win, and Xing Ye will inevitably lose, after all, there is no agreement signed, and the lawsuit is judged by the result of the agreement.”

Jiang Feng’s words came to President Wang’s heart.

Huayi refuses to admit this, because there is no agreement, as long as the agreement does not state that it will give 80 million dividends, then even if it is good to fight a lawsuit, their chances of winning Huayi will be very large.

Besides, how much does a lawsuit cost? Only 10% of the amount involved in the case, that is, 8 million.

Even if you win the lawsuit, you can recover the 72 million.

Therefore, if Huayi does not admit this matter, there is no need to give Zhou Xingchi 80 million dividends.

“So what I want to ask now is, did President Wang verbally promise before that if the box office exceeds 500 million, he will give Xingye 80 million box office dividends?”

Jiang Feng asked Wang Zhonglei if he had made this promise.

“Don’t tell me anything about the agreement or not, just say that you have ever agreed? Wang Zhonglei was very embarrassed and embarrassed at this time. ”

He knew that Jiang Feng was going to stand out for Zhou Xingchi, and he also knew that once Jiang Feng came out for Zhou Xingchi, this matter would not be so simple.

But in fact, Jiang Feng really helped the Huayi brothers, after all, he fell out with a ghost like Zhou Xingchi, and there was no cooperation behind, then the Huayi brothers lost not these 80 million, but 800 million.

“Yes! I did, but he didn’t sign the agreement. ”

Wang Zhonglei admitted that he had verbal promises, but Zhou Xingchi did not sign the agreement, and he did not count without signing the agreement.

“Indeed.”

Jiang Feng looked at Zhou Xuchi and said, “The amount involved is too large, and if there is no agreement, this is indeed your problem.” ”

Although Zhou Xingchi was angry, he also knew that he was pitted this time.

He was at fault for not signing the agreement; But I blame myself for trusting Huayi too much.

“But Mr. Wang, after this incident, you also let me see clearly Huayi’s attitude and appearance.”

“So I verbally promised last year that I wanted to cooperate with you on the project, and I don’t want to cooperate with you now.”

As soon as Jiang Feng’s words came out, Wang Zhonglei’s face suddenly turned livid.

Before Jiang Feng had promised to cooperate with Huayi on a film project, he had even negotiated how much money to invest.

In terms of casting, it has even been decided, but the script has not yet been seen.

Now that Huayi is making such a fuss, there is a problem in terms of integrity, and Jiang Feng, a partner, terminated the cooperation because he saw that Huayi did not have an attitude of integrity, which is also completely in the past.

Because of their cooperation this time, they also did not sign a contract and did not sign an agreement.

“Jiang Feng, you… This can’t be mixed. ”

Mr. Wang was in a hurry now.

It was all negotiated before, cooperate in a work, they Huayi to invest, Jiahang Media is responsible for the production.

Now Jiahang Media’s films have been contracted as the box office champion in the Chinese film industry for three consecutive years.

This year’s “Pacific Rim” is not surprisingly another box office champion.

Not only that, “Tai Yan” was also invested by Jiahang Media, and now it has also hit the box office of 1.3 billion.

It can be said that in the past three years, the box office market of the Chinese-language film industry has totaled about 20 billion, of which seven domestic films account for about 65%, and the remaining 35% of the box office market is imported films.

And about 65% of the box office market of this domestic film generated nearly 13 billion box office local box office, Inception 3.5 billion, uncle 1.5 billion, hangover 1.5 billion, these three film sets alone is already 6.5 billion.

That is, these three films eat half of the domestic films in the Zhongguo box office market.

This 6.5 billion only counts the local box office of Zhongguo, not counting the foreign box office, and the domestic box office of domestic films in their own country last year was 130

100 million, Jiahang Media will eat 6.5 billion alone, if you don’t cooperate with Jiaxing Media, how much do you have to lose?

Wang Zhonglei knows that this account has a big loss, can he not be anxious?

“I can’t talk about it, but your Huayi’s eating appearance and attitude make me very uneasy.”

“In order not to have some unnecessary disputes like this in the future, I think we should terminate the cooperation.”

Of course, Jiang Feng knew that “Journey to the West” was the last peak of Huayi.

It is also since then that the films produced by Huayi in the next ten years have a bad reputation and box office.

In other words, since the lawsuit with Xingye, Huayi has also been worse every year.

And Xing Ye’s counterattack is to cooperate with Huayi’s opponent, and then produce “Mermaid”, a good movie with a box office of more than 3 billion.

Text, 8000 how many billion.

This time, Jiang Feng helped Zhou Xingchi, on the one hand, he was a friend, on the other hand, he really couldn’t get used to this kind of capitalist to pit stars and directors; Another aspect is that to have a good relationship with Xingye, it is also for the movie “Mermaid” to cooperate.

At this time, Jiang Feng felt that he still had to clearly stand in line and help Zhou Xingchi take this breath…
