"You will definitely earn some money, but as for the remuneration issue, I have two forms for you. One is to pay the remuneration directly, and the other is to pay dividends. The remuneration will be paid directly to you. For example, Fa Ge, I will give you a salary of 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. Since your role in Hong Gu is relatively small, I will give you a salary of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars. Chen Kui'an, I'll give you 50,000 Hong Kong dollars. As for Brother Xian, since you are just a guest star, I will give Chen Kui'an the same price, 50,000 Hong Kong dollars." Li Mingbao explained. Hearing the price quoted by Li Mingbao, including Zhou Runfa, they all knew that the price quoted by Li Mingbao was really a high price. It can be said that it is the highest salary they have received at this stage. Except for Li Mingbao, no one else can offer such a price. Only Li Mingbao, a rich man, can be so generous. Even after Di Long heard Li Mingbao's quotation, he began to wonder whether he had lost money on every movie he made when he was working at Shaw Brothers. Even though he was very popular in the first two years, even in the first two years, he I have never received such a high salary. The combined remuneration of these people amounts to millions of dollars invested, not to mention the money needed to make the film. Only Li Mingbao can be so generous now. The film has not even started yet, but millions of Hong Kong dollars have been spent. , followed by other types of investments, the total investment amount for this film will definitely not be less than 3 million Hong Kong dollars. Such a large amount of money is definitely considered a big production in Hong Kong. Golden Harvest rarely has such a large sum of money in Hong Kong. It can even be said that there has never been such a big deal. Hong Kong is no different than Hollywood, with big investments and big gains. When making a film in Hong Kong, one thing that matters is the cost. The cost is too high and the Hong Kong market alone cannot recover the cost. If it were another person and hearing such a salary, everyone would definitely think it was a joke. But the problem is that the current salary was proposed by Li Mingbao. With Li Mingbao's reputation and his achievements in movies, it seems normal to offer such a price. But even if it was normal, Zhou Runfa still asked worriedly: "Ah Bao, is this salary a bit high? I have never received a salary of 500,000 yuan. Are you so confident that this movie will make money?" "So much money?" "How much is a salary of five hundred thousand? It's not US dollars, it's just Hong Kong dollars. Now that I've paid it, I'm confident that it's a lot in Hong Kong. It's a small salary in Hollywood." It¡¯s nothing at all. You know that movie I made in Hollywood, right? The investment in that movie is considered a small investment in Hollywood, but even if it was a small investment, the movie cost me millions. US dollars. Compared with that, the salary here in Hong Kong is nothing. Don¡¯t think that I am very kind. In fact, this kind of salary is already very low for this movie. , not only to be released in Hong Kong, but also to Hollywood when the time comes. If it can be released there, I will definitely earn a lot of money, so you can feel at ease with this salary. Of course, I have done it before. I have also said that in addition to getting paid directly, you have another option, which is to get dividends. To get dividends, I won't give you a dime first, but after the movie is released and the box office is released, you can then take advantage of it based on the box office. I will give you a certain percentage of the dividend from the box office. This is how the dividend is distributed. "Dividends? This method is very new. So when we get dividends, should we get dividends from all the box office, or in other ways? If all the box office gets dividends, then I will definitely get dividends, and I also want to make US dollars." Hearing the dividends Mode, Zhou Runfa said with great interest. "All the box office? Fa Ge, are you too dark-hearted? How can there be so many. I give the dividend model, and the scope of the dividend is only Hong Kong, other places, whether it is Taiwan or Japan, or Southeast Asia and North America , Don¡¯t even think about the box office in other places. If it¡¯s a dividend from all places, even if I give you a 1% dividend, it¡¯s a lot of money, and I can¡¯t afford it.¡± Li Mingbao said helplessly. . Hearing Li Mingbao¡¯s words, Zhou Runfa also felt a little darker in his heart. The dividends from the global box office, even if it doesn't sell much in each place, are still a huge amount of money when put together. He, Zhou Runfa, can't afford that much money. But just the box office in Hong Kong, Zhou Runfa feels that it is a little less, unless Li Mingbao's percentage points are quoted a lot, but this is impossible, because it is not just him who wants to share the dividends, so many actors have to share the dividends, if the percentage points are If you pay too much, then the movie won¡¯t be enough for actors like them. After thinking about this, Zhou Runfa said: "In this case, Ah Bao, you'd better not do anything."?It¡¯s better to pay dividends directly. The dividend thing is not that reliable. " Hearing what Zhou Runfa said, Li Mingbao also felt that talking about dividends at this time was really not that reliable. It was no longer the time for him to start making movies. At that time, he was giving dividends to everyone and no one wanted it. Take Wang Jing as an example, he would rather have it Even if they don¡¯t have cash, they would rather get the dividend rights of the movie. But now they have to pay dividends, but there are a lot of actors, and they all have to pay dividends. Of course, it¡¯s not that he can¡¯t afford it, but this movie. If we really pay dividends, then all the actors who filmed this movie will become millionaires. In that case, Li Mingbao will completely offend all the bosses in the current Hong Kong film industry. Even a supporting role in a movie. With a profit of one million, how can the boss live when the total revenue of his other movies is less than one million? If you block other people's roads, how can others let you go? It's such a mess. It¡¯s really not beneficial to Li Mingbao¡¯s career in Hong Kong. It¡¯s really too early to discuss this dividend right now. Even if you pay more, others will just think that you, Li Mingbao, are rich and generous. The rights will be released, and others will not be able to imitate them. Not every movie produced by every company can be as profitable as the movies shot by Li Mingbao. Therefore, although this right seems to be beneficial, it is also in Hollywood. It¡¯s a very mature model, but it¡¯s premature in Hong Kong. Paying the film remuneration honestly is the way to go. Zhou Runfa¡¯s words put Di Long¡¯s heart at ease. Just now, when Li Mingbao mentioned the two remuneration models, Di Long was even shocked, especially about the dividend payment. No one in Hong Kong had ever done this before. Only a newcomer like Li Mingbao, who had also been involved in Hollywood, could come up with such a thing. In Di Long's mind, real remuneration is king, especially the remuneration Li Mingbao gave him. Di Long was very satisfied with the bonus remuneration. Di Long was very grateful to Zhou Runfa for rejecting this method of remuneration, because if everyone really had to choose later, Di Long really didn¡¯t know how to reject Li Mingbao. Seeing that everyone had no objections, Li Mingbao also didn¡¯t. Satisfied. There was indeed something very wrong with what he just said. Fortunately, Zhou Runfa was here to stop it and not embarrass himself. There are indeed many things in Hong Kong that need to be changed, but in the future. Li Mingbao's current foundation is very difficult to change even a little bit. It is not feasible at all. It might be better to wait until his situation is better in the future and try some changes. It may be useful. But now, that is to follow the rules of Hong Kong. As for the rest, we will talk about it later. After sending these people away, Li Mingbao began to look for Zhang Guorong. Although Zhang Guorong had already debuted, he could only be regarded as a newcomer and his popularity was very low. He wanted to find him. He is still quite troublesome. Fortunately, Li Mingbao has Baidu in his mind, and it is not too difficult to know how to find Zhang Guorong at this time. So Li Mingbao went to Huaxing the next day to find Zhang Guorong. China Star is actually a company under TVB. At this time, TVB is really so powerful that it is boundlessly powerful. Uncle Liu has so many resources that it can swamp everyone else. No matter what industry it is, as long as it is People in Hong Kong circles who are involved in film and television are more or less related to Uncle Liu. Even if Shaw Brothers declines, there are still a large number of actors who are popular now, popular in the past, and popular in the future in the declining Shaw Brothers. Therefore, Uncle Liu, the uncrowned king, is very stable. This does not blame Uncle Liu for his attitude towards Li Mingbao. In Uncle Liu's eyes, he has the most resources. If Li Mingbao doesn't cooperate, there will be no way. " And Li Mingbao did think about this problem at the beginning, so at that time, his arms couldn't twist his thighs, so he went directly to the United States, and then came back from the United States, catching Uncle Six by surprise. Now, although the relationship between Li Mingbao and Uncle Six is ??not good, since Uncle Six did not explicitly prohibit Li Mingbao's actions, Li Mingbao's activities in Wireless are basically public. At this time, China Star Records only had two or three kittens. Although Huaxing was founded very early, at that time, Huaxing Records only produced songs for wireless movies and TV shows, and did not have the business of independently publishing records. It was only this year that Huaxing Records truly began to produce independently. Even Leslie Cheung was the first male singer to sign a contract with Huaxing Records, so Leslie Cheung was considered Huaxing¡¯s first brother at this time. But Huaxing¡¯s plate is small after all. When a big shot like Li Mingbao arrives and asks for Zhang Guorong by name, how dare China Star Records neglect him? Zhang Guorong was immediately brought over.
