Today, Xiao Yunhai was definitely a rich man. After the big sales of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang", he earned 23 million yuan. Jiujiu Network also transferred 18 million yuan to him yesterday. Both of them added up to 40 million yuan.
The cost of TV series and movies in this world was very high. In his previous life, 40 million yuan was more than enough for a medium-sized TV series as long as they didn't invite a big shot. But in this world, it was not possible.
Not to mention other things, just the rent of places like the palace used in "Scarlet Heart" alone was several million yuan a month.
And the biggest expense was the value of the actors. Third rate actors were paid according to the package price of all the scenes, while second rate actors and above were paid according to the episode. Among them, second rate actors were generally paid between 100,000 and 500,000 yuan, while first rate actors were paid at least 500,000 yuan and could reach as high as 1 million yuan per episode.
As for top actors and above, such as Huang Peiqi, they would need at least 1.2 million yuan, and this was the price given by their old friends. If it was an ordinary film crew, it would be impossible to even think about it without 1.5 million yuan.
It was said that Emperor Kangxi's film crew was full of superstars, and the cost of the actors alone reached a terrifying 300 million yuan. From this, it could be seen how rich the first rate actors and above in the entertainment industry were. With money, their status in society would naturally be high.
Zhang Guangqi said, "It seems that Mr. Yunhai is a rich man. It's naturally a good thing for our film and television group to have someone invest in us. I think there should be no problem with this condition. "
"Third." Xiao Yunhai stretched out three fingers and continued, "I want to play the role of the Fourth Master, Yongzheng."
"This?" Zhang Guangqi hesitated.
Xiao Yunhai said, "To tell you the truth, I'm a student majoring in acting at the Yenching Film Institute. The main reason for writing this script is to play the role of Yongzheng. If your company is not willing to accept this condition, then we can only look forward to the possibility of cooperation in the future. "
"Yenching Film Institute? Does Mr. Yunhai know Miss Zhao Wanqing? "Zhang Guangqi asked.
"She's my classmate, and we're very good friends. Do you know her? "
"Of course. Hehe, then we can be considered a family. Her father, Mr. Zhao Wanqing, is the boss of our Hanhai Film Group. Miss Zhao Wanqing is naturally the eldest daughter of our company. "
At this time, Xiao Yunhai knew the real identity of Zhao Wanqing. No wonder she was still in school, but she could often get acting contracts and make a living in the entertainment circle. With the Hanhai Film Corporation as his backing, it was naturally much easier for him than for others.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Actually, Zhao Wanqing can play the role of Ruo Xi in 'Step by Step'. Her acting skills are enough to support this movie. "
"I can't make that decision. Do you have any other conditions? "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "No."
Zhang Guangqi nodded and stretched out his hand, saying, "That's good. I'll go back and report your conditions to the company. I hope we can cooperate. "
Xiao Yunhai stood up and shook hands with Zhang Guangqi, saying, "As long as this TV series can be shot well, it will definitely surprise the industry. I'll be waiting for your good news. "
When Xiao Yunhai returned to the dormitory, Huang Bo was lying on the bed and reading a book. Xiao Yunhai carefully looked at it and couldn't help but be amused. He was reading the 'Legend of Chu Liuxiang' he wrote.
"Fourth Brother, why don't you read professional books about acting? Why are you reading Wuxia novels?"
Upon hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, Huang Bo put the book on the pillow and said excitedly, "Third Brother, my luck is about to change. Like I said, a genius like me will come out one day sooner or later. You see, I'm only in my third year, but a crew called me and asked me to audition for the role of Hu Tiehua in 'The Legend of Chu Liuxiang'.
"I thought they were just teasing me. But when I checked the Internet, I found that the famous Wuxia director, He Jin, is indeed preparing to shoot 'The Legend of Chu Liuxiang'. How can I not quickly familiarize myself with the original novel? But you have to say, this Wuxia novel is really interesting. "
Speaking of this, Huang Bo paused for a moment and then continued, "Third Brother, why do you think the crew noticed me? Could it be that the school recommended me? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said playfully, "Why do you care about that? Just prepare for your role. Don't embarrass our school when the time comes. "
Upon hearing this, Huang Bo said confidently, "With my acting skills, I'm definitely more than enough to play the role of Hu Tiehua."
Xiao Yunhai chuckled and said, "Good luck." Then, he turned on the computer and busied himself with his own work.
Xiao Yunhai got the script of 'The Legend of Chu Liuxiang' a week ago. After Xiao Yunhai read it, he was very satisfied. The scriptwriters in this world were indeed more than one level higher than in his previous life.
He Jin's scriptwriter team didn't make any major changes to the original work. They only made some small changes to the characters' portrayals, which improved the show's brilliance and endurance a lot. He believed that the ratings of this TV series should be good.
As for giving Huang Bo an opportunity to audition, it was naturally He Jin. As the author, although Xiao Yunhai couldn't decide the actor, he still had the right to add an actor to the audition. He Jin couldn't refute Xiao Yunhai's face because of this.
Zhang Guangqi's efficiency was very high. In the afternoon, he called Xiao Yunhai and said that the company basically agreed to his conditions, but the specific details still needed to be discussed in detail. He asked him to meet at the usual place at noon tomorrow.
The next day, Xiao Yunhai came to the appointed place and found that in addition to Zhang Guangqi, there was also a peerless beauty. It was Zhao Wanqing.
After Zhao Wanqing saw Xiao Yunhai, she circled around him a few times, and after carefully sizing up Xiao Yunhai, she said with a smile, "I have to say, you really make others have a whole new level of respect for you. I didn't expect that in addition to acting and singing, you can also write such a good script. You are really a genius. "
After Zhang Guangqi returned to the company yesterday, he specially reported the negotiation to Zhao Wanqing's father, Zhao Mingsheng. For a show like "Step by Step" to be perfect, an investment of at least 100 million would be needed. Such a large investment naturally had to be approved by the boss.
When Zhao Mingsheng heard that it was his daughter's classmate, he found Zhao Wanqing and gave her Step by Step to let her watch it.
Zhao Wanqing only watched a part of it, but she completely fell in love with this very challenging role. When she learned that the author of this script was Xiao Yunhai, she immediately asked to come over and negotiate with him. That was why Zhao Wanqing accompanied Zhang Guangqi to come over.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I don't have an agent or an entertainment company, so it's basically very difficult for me to get a role. I might as well write one myself. At least I can get a role that I want. "
Zhao Wanqing smiled sweetly and said, "I think you not only want to be an actor, but also a boss. 40 million yuan, I really didn't expect you to be so rich. I'm now officially representing Hanhai Film and Television to negotiate with you. We accept your three conditions. Your script costs 4% of the total profit, which is already the standard of a top scriptwriter. "
Xiao Yunhai thought for a while and nodded to express his agreement.
"As for the film and television production, our Hanhai Film and Television is prepared to invest 160 million yuan. Adding your 40 million yuan, we will have a total of 200 million yuan. If it's not enough, we'll talk about it when the time comes. However, due to our investment in production, distribution, publicity, and other aspects, your 40 million yuan can only occupy 16%. Adding the 4%, you will have a total of 20% of the profit. What do you think? "
