Lisco's American Life

995. Director's Remuneration

Since the other party is not the kind of person who is more traditional and wants to see the end of the road in the category of literary and artistic films, Lisko doesn't mind giving the other party a chance to test his quality.

"By the way, I don't know what the director wants to say when he comes to see me."

Now that the task of recruiting the other party has been completed, the atmosphere of the conversation between the two people has become more relaxed. Lisko picked up the coffee pot placed aside and gave the director's bottomed cup a refill of fragrant and delicious coffee.

, and then he opened his mouth and continued to ask.

"That's right, Mr. Lisko, because the matters in Berlin have been dealt with, our crew will sort it out later, and we may be returning to our own country. Before leaving, I want to meet you in person to express my feelings.

The company supports us on this film, and we also say goodbye to the two of them."

Having said this, the director quickly put down the tea cup he had just picked up and said with a serious face. To be honest, he was very grateful to Zhang Li and Li Sk. If it weren't for the other party's joining, the crew would have encountered that kind of situation.

Things will definitely come to a halt in the future.

Not to mention that like now, not only has the entire copy been recovered, but the profit has doubled, and the title of Berlin Film Queen has once again confirmed his reputation as a talented director.

Therefore, it is only natural to express gratitude and farewell to two people before leaving.

Seeing the indifferent expression of gratitude and respect in the director's eyes, Lisko not only burst into laughter, but things in this world were just like that. If there were no interests involved, he would naturally not lend a hand to help.

There may be talented people everywhere, but it is so difficult to find someone who appreciates you. There are too many geniuses who, because they are not discovered, end up being completely ignored by all living beings.

For Lisko, investing in directors can not only increase the influence of his own New Media Group in the industry, but also release a kind of goodwill to other artistic directors and directors, that is, this new Hollywood giant, for their group

Is optimistic,

From another perspective, the money invested has been recovered and no loss has been made. It is a business that is guaranteed to make a profit. Although this money may be taken from other industries, it will not take so long to earn more than this.

Profits, but for Lisko at this time, money is no longer that important. What is more important is his social status and corresponding influence. This is the standard to measure whether a person is rich.

Moreover, the investor also successfully won a Best Actress trophy for Zhang Li. Just looking at the uncontrollable joy and excitement on his wife's face in the past few days, Sco felt that he had spent the money well.

worth.

"Ah? Director, are you leaving?"

Zhang Li, who had been waiting in the corner, originally did not intend to get involved in the conversation between the two, but when he heard the director's words about leaving, he immediately exclaimed and asked, after all, today is the second day after the Berlin Film Festival, so he should stay.

It would take longer, so she had absolutely no preparation or thoughts in this regard, and was extremely shocked when she heard the director's words.

"Yes, we are leaving, because the things here have almost been dealt with, and it would be a waste of money to delay it any longer. So after discussing it with the producer and other members of the crew, I decided to leave for home.

Home."

When talking about this matter, the director had a relaxed mood on his face. Before coming to Berlin, he was very uneasy for fear that his film would not be appreciated by investors and failed to win any awards at the Berlin Film Festival.

, and in the end he couldn't even sell the copyright, so he could only use the remaining money, hold a pile of useless films, and get on the flight back to his country in despair.

Unexpectedly, after arriving here, things were handled unexpectedly smoothly, which really surprised him. Moreover, as the leader and director of this film, he also had a share of the profits of the film, although the money is still there.

He successfully deposited it into his account without going through financial calculations, but thinking that he could live a prosperous life in the future, he couldn't help but curl up his lips.

"Have all the copyrights been sold? How is things going? Are you satisfied with the price?"

Lisko asked. He had not paid much attention to the crew during this period, so he paid almost no attention to the copyright sale.

"The sale went smoothly. I gave all the licenses in North America to Warner, and the other party gave me a price of 8 million US dollars, which is equal to the production cost. The total price of the copyright sales in other regions is almost

The profit of about 10 million US dollars, after profit sharing, will be worth about 1 million in my hands."

When it came to money, the director didn't shy away from it at all. He directly made it clear how much money he had received from selling the copyright and how much money he had received.

"By the way, I know that you two may not be short of this money, but in order to express my gratitude to you, I decided to give 1/5 of this reward to you, which can be regarded as a little bit of my heart.

"

As the director spoke, he took out two red envelopes with Chinese characteristics from his pocket. As expected, the checks signed by him were placed inside. In order to purchase these two red envelopes, he made a special inquiry about the relevant information.

Knowledge, I went to a remote grocery store in Chinatown to buy it.

Because in the process of getting along with Zhang Li on the set, I also knew the other person's nationality very clearly. I even learned that Li Ke can speak Chinese during the chat. In order to better suit the two people's wishes,

So much effort has been put into it.

"this?"

Seeing the two red envelopes neatly placed on the table by the director, Li Ke and Zhang Li also looked at each other, and saw a hint of astonishment and surprise in each other's eyes. To be honest, they were not grateful to the director.

It's so surprising, after all, this director's personality is the kind that people can see through at a glance.

I am very honest and sincere, and there is a sense of gratitude in my character. Maybe literary and artistic workers are such pure characters, but they are not good at socializing.

However, the other party would use part of the remuneration they earned from the shooting as a reward for the two of them, which they did not expect.

To be honest, this was the first time Lisko had received a reward of this nature since he traveled through time. He picked up the two red envelopes with great interest, opened them and looked at the specific amount on the check. It was 100,000 US dollars per person. If

If it were anyone else, they might have accepted it happily.
