Huayu’s ex-husband

Chapter 114 113. Fully demonstrates Wei Wu’s box office appeal as a top commercial film director

"How's it going? What did your boss say?"

In the director's exclusive lounge, Wei Wu, who had just come down from the press conference, finally had some free time to chat with Yang Mi about changing jobs.

Yang Mi replied: "After I went back the day before yesterday, I conveyed your words to our boss intact.

"They were reluctant at first, but then your teacher may have helped to intercede, or it may have been Chen Kun who put pressure on them——

“Anyway, before I came here today, the two bosses finally reached an agreement and decided to let me go.

"However, liquidated damages still have to be paid, but you can give me a half discount. I only need to pay 500,000 yuan."

Wei Wu waved his hand and said proudly: "We can still afford 500,000, so just give it to them and we'll be done!"

If a mere 500,000 yuan can buy the 8-year contract right of the big power, it will definitely be earned with blood!

After all, Wei Wu's income in the stock market now exceeds this amount in a week.

In fact, for Rong Xinda, it doesn't matter how much money he has, but that's how things have to be done. No matter who wants to change jobs midway, they have to pay liquidated damages, otherwise people will lose their support in the future and the team will be difficult to manage!

But this time, the reason why Li Shaohong and the others didn't bother much and simply agreed was mainly because Yang Mi was really not famous now.

Although he just starred in "Wang Zhaojun", that drama will not be broadcast until the second half of next year.

And although most of Yangma's dramas are pretty good, it is an indisputable fact that their influence has gradually declined in recent years. There are more and more dramas with average ratings. Who can guarantee that "Wang Zhaojun" will be a hit? ?

The key to Yang Mi's contract is now half over and only has 4 years left, but there is still no sign of success at all.

To put it bluntly, even if Yang Mi really becomes popular after "Wang Zhaojun" is aired in the second half of next year, the contract will only be in the last two years, and she still won't be able to make much money!

It would be better to have a good time together, to have a good relationship with Wei Wu, and to let her go with a buyout fee.

But if Li Shaohong and the others think this way now, they will definitely regret it in less than two years.

But when that time comes, Wei Wu won't be afraid! After all, by that time, Wei Wu will definitely be much more awesome than he is now, so why would he still take Rong Xinda seriously?

Thinking of this, Wei Wu waved his hand slightly excitedly and said:

"Okay, since your boss has agreed, leave the rest to me. I'll have someone contact them later and hand over the money, so you can rest assured that you don't have to worry about acting anymore!"

"Okay", Yang Mi chuckled:

"Then should I change my name and call you boss from now on?"

Wei Wu immediately came to play, glanced at him with an arrogant expression and said:

"Since you know, why don't you come here quickly and give me a slap on your shoulders and legs for the boss? You don't have any eyesight at all."

Yang Mi started to move her finger joints and said with a look of contempt:

"Really? Then do you want to play with me and sleep with me?"

Wei Wu nodded and said, "Well, those who understand current affairs are heroes. Xiao Yang, you don't want the company to deny you roles in the future, right?"

Yang Mi thought this sounded strange, but she couldn't explain why. He simply ignored it and rushed over, hitting Wei Wu on the head who was sitting on the chair:

"Punch your shoulders and pinch your legs, right? Is it strong enough? Do you still want to sleep with me? Ah!"

Wei Wu quickly blocked his head with both hands, and begged for mercy:

"Just kidding, don't take it seriously!"

The two quarreled for a while, and Yang Mi couldn't help but joked with a smile:

"You're in a good mood today. You're about to turn on your phone. Are you still thinking of teasing me?"

Wei Wu was noncommittal: "Yes?"

Yang Mi nodded: "Of course, it's obvious!"

Now that he had pointed it out, Wei Wu stopped pretending and said frankly:

"Well, the reason why I'm particularly happy is because before today's press conference, we just signed advertising sponsorship agreements with 6 companies that we have already negotiated with for this movie, and the 6 companies received a total of 3 million!

"It's like saying that our movie has already recovered 1/4 of the cost before it even started shooting! Can you be unhappy about that?"

The production cost of "Silver Driver" was 12 million. Wei Guo Pictures invested 9 million, then China Film invested 2 million, and the remaining 1 million investment share was given to Bona.

In the future, the film will also be handed over to China Film and Bona for joint distribution. Of course, China Film will take the majority share, and Bona will follow suit.

Yang Mi was also very happy for him when she heard this: "Well, when you said it, I immediately remembered it. The six companies seem to be Li Ning, Sohu, Penguin, Kongzong.com, Skoda and Anta, right?"

Wei Wu nodded: "Yes, these 6 companies are the brand sponsors of our movie. I will embed their advertisements in the movie later."

This is also the first time that Wei Wu has embedded advertisements in his movies. Previously, when he filmed "Those Years" and "People on the Road" -

Because his reputation is too small, and the movie is also low-cost, basically no one is willing to place advertisements in his movies.

But now Wei Wu is no longer what he used to be. In his previous life, Ning Hao only filmed one film, "Crazy Stone", and later "Crazy Racing" received sponsorship from many product placements.

Not to mention that the box office of "Unfortunately" is twice as much as that of "Crazy Stone", so the brands that hope to place advertisements in Wei Wu's new film will naturally be even more enthusiastic!

In fact, the advertising placement in the movie Ning Hao in the previous life was pretty good. One scene that left a deep impression on Wei Wu was when Xu Zheng held up his mobile phone and told Huang Bo that housing prices in the city were rising, and then a close-up of the mobile phone screen Displayed is the home page of Kongzhong.com.

However, several scenes in "KAPPA" were a bit stiff in succession, which caused many viewers to resent and complain. Of course, Wei Wu had to adjust to avoid such surprises.

In fact, there were more than just these 6 companies that wanted to advertise, but Wei Wu made certain choices, and without affecting the quality of the finished film, he finally chose these 6 companies with relatively high bids, with an average of 500,000 each. The total name currency is 3 million yuan.

It should be said that the price is a little low, mainly because Wei Wu does not have a single big star in the film.

The seats for the leading actors are really too small, but if one or two big stars come in, the price might double.

But if one or two big stars were to come in, the movie would definitely not be the same as before!

What's more, there is no big star, which may even be a major benefit for Wei Wu.

Because once this movie hits the box office in the future, it will naturally highlight Wei Wu’s awesomeness even more!

Then his fans can confidently support him. This movie fully demonstrates Wei Wu's box office appeal as a top commercial film director!

After all, this group of 98 people, the box office exploded like this! If it were replaced with a 298, it wouldn't take off completely!
