    Thinking about this movie breaking new box office records and charging towards 20 to 30 million box office, a director like him is alone outside with 50,000 Hong Kong dollars and drooling. Every time this scene appears  In Wang Jing's head, he couldn't help but want to cry. If he had taken the share without paying a penny, then now he would be able to enjoy spicy food.  It was not that Li Mingbao had no conditions for giving Wang Jing a share, but Wang Jing initially disliked that the 1% box office share was too low. If the film failed, he would not get a penny of benefit, so he still wanted to  Money, after all, although Li Mingbao made a movie that broke box office records, it was still a bit of a fluke.  To be honest, Wang Jing didn't trust Li Mingbao very much.  Although fifty thousand yuan is a small amount, compared to the misery of not being able to get a penny from the filming of the film, fifty thousand yuan is actually not bad.  At least it would be better than working in vain, but by this time, Wang Jing had already regretted it.  Fifty thousand yuan is of course much more than the price he paid for his hard work as a screenwriter, but compared to the box office of "Baby Smart Stars", it is completely insignificant!  Although the final box office of this movie still needs to be calculated, and even if Wang Jing gets a share, he will only get a share of the Hong Kong box office, and he will not get a share of the overseas market.  But even then, a 1% share is definitely not a small amount. Judging from the current situation of this movie, it is not difficult at all to break through the box office of 30 million.  Those advertisements made by Li Mingbao were not in vain.  Now in Hong Kong, it cannot be said that everyone in Hong Kong is aware of the movie "Baby", but as long as they have the spending power, most people will definitely know about this movie.  In this regard, the innate conditions of "Baby Smart Stars" are much better than those of "Happy Ghost".  "Baby's Stars" targets audiences of all walks of life. Originally, this movie was meant for the whole family to watch together.  But "Happy Ghost" is unlikely to attract so many people, at least those children won't like it too much, and those adults won't pay too much attention.  In terms of subject matter, "Baby Smart Stars" has a wider audience than "Happy Ghost". In addition, with so many advertisements, it is completely popular before it is released.  At the beginning, "Happy Ghost" only relied on word of mouth, and only later did the press join in the promotion.  The most important thing is that during the summer vacation, people's pockets are definitely not as full as their wallets at Christmas.  Comparing all aspects, it is easy to conclude that the box office of "Baby" is higher than that of "Happy Ghost", and it is much higher.  And what is the box office of "Happy Ghost"?  Twenty-four million!  It is much higher than the box office of 24 million. The box office of 30 million is not too difficult at all. In fact, some reporters with keen eyes have begun to predict the box office of the movie "Baby Smart Star".  Will it reach the height of 40 million?  With outside predictions and his own calculations, Wang Jing felt more and more pitiful. Although the 1% box office share did not include overseas box office, to be honest, with such a price, Li Mingbao was bullying Wang Jing.  .  These days, the director's share of the box office is usually 5%, and even big directors can get 10%.  But the problem is that the current Wang Jing is really not worth that price. The movie "Baby Wisdom Stars", from creativity to other things, was all done by Li Mingbao himself. In order to make the movie more comedic, Li Mingbao let  Wang Jinglai will be the director.  Under such circumstances, how could Li Mingbao offer a high price to Wang Jing?  Being able to give him a 1% dividend is already for the sake of Wang Jing's future.  But Wang Jing himself was unwilling to take the dividends, and instead took the money. Naturally, Li Mingbao would not kindly remind Wang Jing that taking the dividends would make more money.  Anyway, Wang Jing, this damn fat guy, will not be short of money in the future, and the current lack of money is only temporary. In addition, after "Baby, Wisdom, and Stars" becomes popular, Wang Jing will definitely have many movies to shoot. By then, as the director of "Baby, Wisdom, Stars"  Director, if Wang Jing can't negotiate the price with other people, then if he can't make money, it can only be said that Wang Jing is stupid, and Li Mingbao cannot be blamed.  Wang Jing is not a person who likes to hold his anger inside, at least not yet.  Therefore, after the premiere box office of "Baby Wisdom Stars" came out, Wang Jing made harassing calls to Li Mingbao regularly every day. He didn't say anything else but said that he was so poor that he couldn't even afford tea eggs.  .  Li Mingbao was annoyed at the harassment calls from Wang Jing at first, but others persisted, and Li Mingbao had no choice but to finally tell Wang Jing that if the box office of "Baby Smart Stars" could exceed 40 million, then he would  Private individuals paid two million as dividends.  Of course, this dividend is not just for Wang Jing, but for everyone on the crew, including the leading actors and some behind the scenes. Li Mingbao will give red envelopes.  Li Mingbao suddenly became generous,It is naturally a good thing for Wang Jing. With a two million dividend, as a director, he will definitely get no less than two hundred thousand in the end. The ratio of one-tenth is not very high, but it is similar.  For Wang Jing, who has not yet made a lot of money, 200,000 yuan can already make him happy to do a striptease in front of Li Mingbao. As for whether Li Mingbao will like it, Wang Jing will not consider such a thing for the time being.  He now spends more time praying that the box office of "Baby" can really cross the 40 million threshold, so that he can get dividends.  Li Mingbao suddenly became generous. In fact, there was a reason.  This reason still lies with Boss Zou.  Speaking of Li Mingbao, who has not entered the film industry before, he is actually quite generous. If you are not generous and stingy, you will be willing to follow you.  So even if Li Mingbao had no money at that time, he was very generous. He could never keep the money in his hands. When he ran out of money, he would sometimes ask his brothers for help. Anyway, Li Mingbao was quite thick-skinned at that time.  But later on, because I got that memory and knew that Hong Kong¡¯s economy would have a major earthquake in two years, even if I made money, I consciously controlled my own costs.  That's why Li Mingbao seemed so stingy when he was on the crew. The actors' salaries were very low, and the crew's expenses could be saved as much as possible.  But later, when he saw that Boss Zou had set his sights on Hollywood for Chen Long, and didn¡¯t even bother to fight for the local market, allowing Li Mingbao to get a big advantage, Li Mingbao suddenly realized that he couldn¡¯t save two bucks because he was so stingy.  In these days, there are more opportunities to make money, and it can be said that there is gold everywhere. Since Li Mingbao has such a big golden finger, why should he limit his money-making vision to a small place like Hong Kong?  In the North American market, it is a virgin territory. If someone like Li Mingbao, who has so many advantages, enters, the speed of making money will definitely be easier than working hard to make movies here in Hong Kong.  Just like Boss Zou¡¯s logic, if you are making a movie, the money you can make in Hong Kong can only be Hong Kong dollars, but if you make a movie in the North American market, the money you can make is green Franklin.  The same box office, a box office of 10 million in North America is 10 million US dollars, while a box office of 10 million in Hong Kong can only be HK dollars.  The difference between 10 million U.S. dollars and 10 million Hong Kong dollars is directly seven or eight times.  Li Mingbao is working very hard in Hong Kong. Even if he makes a wonderful movie, judging from the current prices in Hong Kong, it is impossible for him to get a box office of 70 to 80 million. That would be equivalent to a myth.  Even in the Hong Kong film industry more than ten years later, a box office of 40 to 50 million would be a miracle, 70 to 80 million?  You didn't wake up, did you?  But in the current North American market, movies with a box office of 10 million are everywhere.  Star Wars, released three years ago, grossed nearly $800 million at the box office.  The figure of US$800 million is not very intuitive. If we look at the box office of Hong Kong movies, it is a box office of HK$6.4 billion.  The box office of such a movie alone is basically equivalent to the total value of the current Hong Kong film industry. Even if Uncle Liu, the uncrowned king of the Hong Kong film industry, is sold, such a large sum of money cannot be collected.  Boss Zou, as someone who thinks in this era, would like to go to Hollywood to make money. Li Mingbao, a person who has received the memory of a future tycoon and has a whiteness searcher, is still looking at a small market like Hong Kong. It is really a bit  ridiculous.  When Li Mingbao understood this, he felt ashamed of his previous stingy behavior.  Even if Li Mingbao increases the salary of those stars ten times, it is actually only a small amount of money for Li Mingbao's current net worth.  But for those celebrities, the impression of Li Mingbao in their hearts is at least a hundred times better.  If they cooperate in the future, Li Mingbao can call people over with just a look without Li Mingbao opening his mouth.  But if his image of Grandet is completely formed in front of everyone, no matter how rich Li Mingbao is in the future, he will probably be another sixth uncle in everyone's eyes and cannot be offended, but I can hide, thinking that because of some of my  When a small stinginess can bring such serious consequences, Li Mingbao couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.  Coupled with the recent harassment from Fatty Wang, Li Mingbao felt that he should do something to improve everyone's perception of him.  With this idea, Li Mingbao said that if the box office was 40 million, he would get 2 million in dividends.  In fact, even if the movie does not reach a box office of 40 million, Li Mingbao will pay dividends to Wang Jing and the others. Not only Wang Jing and the others will pay dividends, but also the actors who filmed "Happy Ghost" before, Li Mingbao will also pay dividends.  It just so happened that I hadn¡¯t seen Hong Gu for a long time, so I took advantage of the bonus to go and see her.
