Chapter 66 Film Remuneration

If the Hollywood people list a list, Kevin Hart can definitely be among the best.

Kevin has not only a great sense of humor. His biggest ability is to know how to turn witty and playful words into a bridge to build a business rising path.

Kevin Hart can always make a close and critical friend for himself, Chris Locke, Will Smith, Jason Stam, Ice Cube, Ludacris, Drake

Chris Paul, who is still staying at the Clippers, is still commensurate with Kelvin Hart.

And these are just celebrities who are well known to the media on the table. Behind the scenes, there are countless people who use Kevin Hart as friends. For the simplest example, UTA's three giants, each of them invited several times several times, invited several times several times, invited several times several times.

Kevin Hart is a guest at home. The complex joint artist brokerage company in the internal ecology can gain the trust and love of the three parties at the same time. Kevin Hart's social wrist can be regarded as a master level.

If there is only one person in Hollywood who will socialize, then this person must be Kevin Hart.

There are many reasons that let Kevin Hart quickly fight the favor. The cheerful personality is one, and the ultimate ability to observe the color and color is also one. Of course, the most important thing is his control of the details of the communication, and the object of the communication between the communication is meticulous.

Care and respect.

For example, this time for HartBeat's acquisition negotiations, different from Diplo chose to meet in the Manate Entertainment Office, Kevin Hart insists on asking Han Yi and Jordan Blomley to Mélisse restaurant for dinner.

The food guide has not returned to Los Angeles, but everyone knows that as long as the tire suppliers from Clemond Ferlang restart the restaurant selection in the Greater Los Angeles area, this restaurant will inevitably become the top five in the rankings. Whether it is two stars,

Still Samsung.

This is exactly the case. After the Michelin Guide returned to Luocheng in 2019, Mélisse became one of the five two -star restaurants.

And there is no Michelin Samsung in Los Angeles. This also means that Mélisse, at least in the choice dimension of French cuisine, is the most worthy of the rare resort in LA.

Mélisse, founded by California chef Josea Sitrin, supplied French cuisine that integrates new California-style style. It is the most prestigious high-end restaurant in St. Monica.

Mélisse at the junction of 11th Street is not only far away from the beaches of tourists such as weaving, but also is quite different from San Monica's luxury distribution center in the third shopping street to fully ensure that diners can enjoy a private and quiet dining environment.

However, it is different from MASA and Per SE, which is located in the center of Warner, facing Manhattan. Mélisse's site selection seems to be too low -key. Light green walls, purple windows, brown wooden doors, and hanging at the entrance

The retro -style shop tricks are all the outer clothes of this small building. In Han Yi's eyes, Starbucks opposite the street is not as high as the street.

If you have one more person, you have to be squeezed out of the red road shoulder.

When Han Yi and Jordan-Brumley's car arrived at the door of Mélisse one after another, Kevin Hart and his accompanying, waiting for a long time at the door of the store. Seven or eight people stuffed the roads.

Some of them secretly took out their mobile phones to shoot, boldly came up to find Kevin Hart to take a group photo. The vehicles that came and went, as long as they saw Kevin Hart, they would also shook the window to say hello, or just press the horn directly to the horn toward

It wondered.

For a while, Han Yi was unclear whether this was a private dinner, or the roadside show on the roadside of Kevin Hart. However, Han Yi understood that no one would be willing to stand on the street without paying.

People are watching rare animals. Ke Wenming can enter the store, and even sit at the dining table that is booked, but he still chooses to be outside the store and do not refuse to ask each fan who asked for a group photo.

The cheeks became a little bit sour because of the deliberate smile.

The reason why Kevin Hart does this is only one reason.

He showed Han Yi's humble attitude and sincerity.

The emotional intelligence and social ability are so high that, even if Han Yi knows that this is a superficial kung fu that he deliberately made, he has to add a bit of good feelings to him.

After all, who does not like to study how to ask how to please himself?

More importantly, there is such a savvy character as a partner, and the benefits are properly distributed. Han Yi in the field of film and television in the field of film and television, trivial matters that need to be worried will be reduced.

"Easy! Sorry, sister, my guest is here ... Okay, no problem, take another one."

After putting on the shape to meet the black female fans around her, Kevin Hart hurried two steps and walked to Han Yi, opened his arms.

"How about traffic?"

"As always bad, I almost spit on the car."

Han Yi hugged Kevin Hart, patted the back of the other party, and laughed.

"Oh, don't vomit me, brother!" Kevin Harts made an exaggerated movement, pinching the white linny suit of the chest, "the only Gucci in the family!"

"Yeah Right." Han Yi's lips, "The only one GUCCI ... because the family is all Hermes, right?"

"Fake news, I only rock gap."

He touched his fist with Han Yi again, and Kevin Hart felt embarrassed, and turned his head towards Jordan Bromley and Zhao Yanzhen with an equally enthusiastic smile.

"Jordan, Zhenzhen, always happy to see you."

"Allow me to introduce the management team of HARTBEAT, Tai Lan Daofu, this charming lady was originally the chief operating officer of Hartbeat, and now he is promoted to the post of CEO.

-Smaili, chief content officer, Candiece Wilson-Check, the person in charge of the film department, and Mike Stan, the person in charge of the television and audio department. "

"Thai, Jeff, Brian. Hym, Cantce, I like your hair ... Mike, good evening."

Han Yi and Zhao Yizhen shake hands with the five colleagues of Kevin Hart in turn, while Jordan Bromley stood with a smile. Hartbeat is also a customer of Manites Entertainment. Although Jordan is not directly responsible, so

In the past years, the executives that should be seen have also been seen.

HARTBEAT's core team is in line with Kevin Hart's background and identity-Except that Mike Stan is a Caucasian face, the other four executives are African Americans.

Hair, a curly hair, but all painted black women's makeup with exaggerated eyebrow lines. Jeff and Brian's description are also quite close.

The sharp board.

Coupled with the chairman Kevin Hart, Hartbeat undoubtedly has a company ecology dominated by minority ethnic groups, and even women's executives have greater power. In Hollywood in the 2010s, it almost meets all the people's standards for political correctness.

Then, then

"In addition, this is a lawyer from Manita Entertainment, a colleague of Jordan, Christopher Charis."

"Jiu Yang's name, Mr. Han. Please call me Christopher or Chris." The tall Christopher Charnshison quickly took two steps forward and held Han Yi's hand diligently.

"Hello, Christopher."

Han Yi raised his head slightly and watched the partnership of the Manat Entertainment Film and Television sector. From skin tone to appearance, to name, Han Yi could not imagine that there was a white man who was more impressed with the stereotypes of Anglo-Saxon.

Then, then

No matter how many African Americans are struggling on the road of entrepreneurship, there will always be a light -colored skin ring around them.

This may be the reality of American society. On the surface, there are so diversified diversification, but a closer look, the real core occupation, senior position, or the same color.

"Let's come in first, sir, several ladies should feel a little cold."

After the introduction, Kevin Hart leaned on the door and welcomed the guests of the banquet into the room, and then gave Bryin Smetley a look. The latter stepped forward and held the handle for other team members.

Kevin Hart followed Han Yi into the front hall of Mélisse.

This future Michelin two-star restaurant can really be described by forced. The reception of the front hall is not as good as ordinary people's porch. Fortunately, Kevin Hart has already booked the position in advance, and his face and figure are enough to be recognizable enough

After seeing Kevin entered the door, the welcome manager directly led the group to the semi -open card seat in the northwest corner of the restaurant.

For today's negotiations, Kevin Hart also took a lot of thoughts in the seat layout. Mélisse's table can only be used for four people. Therefore, the most corner card is left to Han Yi, Kevin, Kevin, Kevin

-Hart, Jordan-Bromley and Christoper Charis about the business, Tyramido and Kantose Wilson-Chell accompanied Zhao Yizhen, who is also a woman, sitting in another card next door. And Jie

Husband, Bryan and Mike, sitting at the scattered table closest to them, just blocked the curiosity of other people in the restaurant.

"Good evening, sir."

A short -blown short hair, a short female waiter came to the table, put her hands in front of her hands, and said with a smile.

"Welcome to mélisse, I am today's waiter Talia, I am glad to serve you."

"What do you want to drink? Do I need to match meal wine?"

Hearing Talia's questioning, Kevin Hart's right hand was spread out, and a look of inquiries was handed out. He knew who the protagonist was tonight and whose needs should be met first.

"Ah ... just a glass of ice cola." Han Yi raised his index finger and smiled at Chongta. Senior French restaurants like mélisse, each dish has a chef carefully to add a flavor to the meal wine.

What kind of wine should be equipped with ingredients is a learner that is worthy of concentrated research. For example, foie gras, such as foie gras, with light flavors and sweet German treasure commanders, you can achieve a perfect balanced taste.

Then, then

Of course, Han Yi, who does not stick to wine, can't enjoy this custom service. For him without research, whether it is white wine or red wine, there is only one feeling at the entrance -sour, astringent, bitter.

All in all, not as good as cola.

"I admire the determination to keep awake, easy." Kevin patted his hand and glanced at the Christopher around me and Jordan sitting opposite the obliquely.

The state of ah is also good, right? Today is a good day, there should be a celebrated champagne ... Talia, is there any recommended champagne? "

"We have a very good one, champagne from Montagne de Reims." Talia's English is a typical valley accent, but French is also very fluent.

Grande cuvée, want to pursue the effect of micro -stubbornness and wonderful taste, most Mélisse guests will order this one. "

"Okay, Talia, just do it as you said."

"Half bottle or a bottle?"

"We still have the business to talk about." Kevin took the lead, "half bottle."

"Of course, Mr. Hart ... Today's chef's taste menu is in front of you, this time you prepare you for the complete experience of ten dishes." Talia's fingertips gently placed on Kevin Hart-Hart

On the previous taste menu, the sound introduced is soft and soothing. "The front dish is the 'caprese' made of eggs and cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, Laler leaves, white chocolate, Barcelona Michael vinegar, and a black loose sauce sauce

The corn soup, and a foie gras paved on the cream egg rolls. "

"The first main dish, we have steamed Saint Barbara spots shrimp and flavor Italian watercolor rice with Pergor pine risotto. You can choose one.

Fried wild Alaska big fishes. There are also two options for the second staple food, high -quality beef rib eyes, or free ducks cooked in 21 days. "

"In the end, three desserts, cheese Danish bags, chocolate can multi -educational biscuits, and melon ice cream."

Traditional ten dishes French dinner, in fact, should be consisting of appetizing small dots, soup, front dishes, salads, fish, the first main dish, cleaner dishes, the second main course, dessert and candy.

The taste menu is actually not absolutely authentic. But fortunately, even the menu customized by the chef, it is only a single price of $ 185. Compared to the Per SE nine dish dinner at 325 US dollars, and the MASA 950 US dollars of US $ 950

In terms of front experience, it is quite affordable.

Select the main cuisine, Talia will retreat to the four menus, and after presented champagne and lemon ice cola, the conversation of this meal is considered the topic. The tedious social gifts and dining process have always been Europe and the United States.

The indispensable part of the upstream class life.

Han Yi does not like this kind of prosperity, but it does not hinder him from doing it with the big current.

"So, Kevin ..."

Han Yi used Cola to Run a little dry throat today, because he spoke too much, he said.

"What is the current situation of" Brave Game "?"

"They offered me $18 million in pay." Kevin also took a sip of champagne, "but I rejected the proposal."

The specific film remuneration of the actors has always been a secret information that has always been taboo. No Hollywood star wants the outside world to know the specific income of the previous movie, because this will seriously limit their bargaining ability of them and signing agency.

However, two of them sitting on the table today are both law firm who knows the roots and knows that the contract has been fought by them. With a customer agent confidentiality agreement, Kevin Hart is not afraid that they will leak the wind.

As for Han Yi, the billionaire was brought with a check book today to talk about cooperation sincerely. Then Kevin threw out some harmless data to show trust and sincerity. It was also a matter of success.

"Why?" Han Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Too little?"

"No, this price is actually pretty good." Kevin Hart shook his head, "I refused because I want 8%box office profit to divide."

"clear."

Han Yi slightly sighed, and it was clear. Even if he didn't know much about the film and television industry, he knew that for the current Hollywood movie stars, the so -called disposable film remuneration is just prepaid.

The point value of the filmmaker.

In the era of the big studio, the actors were signed by various film companies to kill the film contract and years. Except for one -time performance costs, they could not be divided into any profit from the business performance of the film. However, in the early 1950s, the legend was legend

The agent Lu-Veshaman was his client. At that time, the starring contract of the top star Jimmy Stewalt, the top star, completely changed the entire industry.

At that time, Universal Film wanted Jimmy Stuart to star in the Western film "Hundred Battle Treasures", but there was no extra budget to pay his high film pay. So Lu-Veshaman started his brain, and for Jimmy Stuart and

Both Global Films have solved this problem.

In the agreement he proposed, Jimmy Stewalt reduced the film remuneration requirements in exchange for some of the profits of this film. Just like Robbie Williams and EMI's music allocated, this divided into agreement was also a great success. Global Film

The karma won a classic western film named and known as the seat. Jimmy Stuart also made a lot of money through the box office.

Everyone like Hollywood is crazy gossip. Everyone eagerly wants to know how much the realm of the place of compensation for others.

Actor Agreement Standard.

"Mao profit, or a net profit?"

"Of course it's gross, Yi." Kevin Hart waved his hand and lowered his mouth. "In our industry, only hair profit is a trustworthy vocabulary, because each company has a so-called net profit,

They all have their own calculation methods. "

In fact, as Kevin Hart said, whether it is to avoid taxes, or to put more money from the capital into his own pocket, each film company has its own formula for the accounting of net profit.

In the movie contract, any "Net Profit" must be used as dual quotes like this. Because it represents, it is not in the public cognition, the total revenue minus the remaining amount of the total expenditure. Each company, or even each share per share

In different protocols, the word has its own definition.

For the simplest example, when calculating profits, the film side rarely counts the cost of the film, that is, the actual cost of making all the film's film. Almost all film and television production companies will add 15% when making watchmaking.

The indirect cost, as the compensation of the producer's "various expenses generated by the operating company" during the film shooting.

The accounts on the bright side can be added directly like this, and how much money can be added in private, no one can say it.

, Even taxes and fees, box office audit fees, a lot of places that can do hands and feet.

Therefore, regardless of the actor, screenwriter, producer, or director, as long as they are so famous that they can talk to the filmmaker, the worst condition is always "net profit division", and the best conditions have always been "first-

Dollar Gross ". As the name implies, first-Dollar Gross means that participants can be divided from the first ticket sales, without the need to wait until the movie studio recovers the cost.

Of course, between net profit and pure gross profit, there is also a "adjustment of total income", that is, Adjusted Gross Receipts, abbreviated AGR, and "corrected total revenue", that is, Modified Adjusted GROSS, abbreviated MAG, and countless other species.

The division method. Some methods are more conducive to the filmmaker, and some are more inclined to the participants.

However, no matter how each agreement is drafted and what kind of division in the agreement is divided, the entire industry agrees -for the various participants of the movie, the hair profit sharing is the only correct answer.

"My requirement is 8%gross profit, FIRST-DOLLAR GROSS."

"Do they agree?" Jordan-Bromley's eyes did not fall on Kevin Hart, but instead put it with Chrisolo Chassen.

"No, but it's very close." Christopher replied.

"Are you afraid that the film can't be profitable, Kevin?" Han Yi's fingers were unconsciously protruding on the desktop, and asked with interest, "Many people think that the money that guarantees the hand can really get it.

money."

"I don't think so, easy."

Kevin Hart leaned back, raising the hem of the suit, and exuding strong self-confidence in his tone.

"10 million, 18 million, are all eight -digit numbers. When the number comes to this level, more or less, in my opinion, it doesn't affect much." The attitude of Kevin's answer is a rare rigorous and seriousness.

Even with a little solemn meaning, "What I hope is that every movie I cooperates with me can be successful. If the filmmaker can be profitable, then I can get not only the division, but also reputation, word of mouth and follow, follow it.

The status of coming. If the movie messed up ... Hey, that means that I am not worth so much, isn't it? "

"That's why I don't want to pay prepaid." Kevin Hart's index finger knocked gently on the wall of the wine glass.

"Prepaid is the trap of Hollywood -real smart people, only consider how to help a project to achieve the best and largest."

"Exquisite view, Kevin, I agree with it."

Han Yi admired Kevin Hart's attitude again, but the cold background can achieve the point today. Power is only one aspect. Most people will be the most important quality.

The time to monetize the departure. And Kelvin Hart, no matter which stage, is willing to let go of a fight, it is more rare than Agael powder diamond.

Han Yi has no doubt that as long as he gives Kevin Hart's appropriate opportunities and help, his career achievements will not be inferior to the older black legend Dr. Dre.

"You can have such a mentality, I am very happy ... In this case, I believe you have talked to Sony about investing?"

"Of course, my own agreement is just a side dish."

Kevin Hart smiled and glanced at Christopher Charson, who was sitting around.

"In the past few days, Chris was in contact with Sony Films and inquired about their attitude towards the introduction of" Brave Games "."

"What attitude is they?"

"Let me say that ... In this regard, they are more urgent than us."
