Chapter 411 200 million transfer fee
Zhang Yimou’s phone suddenly rang.
Zhang Yimou only glanced at the caller ID, his brows could not hide his annoyance, and he seemed reluctant to answer the call.
"Sorry, Li Chen, I'll answer the phone first." Zhang Yimou stood up and wanted to go to the quiet room aside.
“At your convenience, Director Zhang.” Li Chen took a sip of tea and smiled.
In his mind, he was quickly thinking about the pros and cons of Zhang Yimou transferring to his own company.
There is no doubt that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
"It's over. I'm a little tired so I won't go to the company. Let's talk about anything tomorrow."
Zhang Yimou hung up the phone and sighed in his heart. This is what his partner is like.
He has to take care of every detail. Sometimes Zhang Yimou even suspects that what he is looking for is not a partner, but an ancestor.
My own wife and I have all been scolded by Zhang Weiping.
My friend Zhao Sushan was even humiliated by him face to face.
He bought the rights to the TV series The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling without even mentioning it.
Sitting down again, Zhang Yimou smiled apologetically: "It is said that all the feasts in the world must come to an end. It is a good thing to have a good gathering and break up, don't you think so?"
Li Chen poured a cup of tea for Zhang Yimou, but it was not full.
"Director Zhang, please try it. This is the finest mountain mist in the Lushan Mountain mist. You can't drink it outside." Li Chen did not answer, but asked Zhang Yimou to taste the tea first.
Zhang Yimou knew that Li Chen was not simple, otherwise he would not be able to choose a tree to roost in.
In fact, with the words Zhang Yimou, as long as he reveals his intention to transfer.
He believed that someone would definitely come looking for him with his head broken.
He chose Li Chen after careful consideration.
First, Li Chen is very powerful and has a good reputation. He is also well-known in the industry for his generosity.
Every artist I have worked with has said good things to me.
Secondly, he is no better than Chen Kaige, who has made a lot of money from both film and television and real estate.
He is no more tactful than Feng Xiaogang.
Otherwise, he would not be a king but still receive a bronze salary from Zhang Weiping and still be owed salary every year.
In the words of his wife, you are worse than a migrant worker. When migrant workers ask for wages every year, they have to risk their lives to get it back.
It would be better for you to regard asking for salary as a slogan, shouting it every year, and coming up empty-handed every year.
He doesn’t have the talent for business, but no one would mind having too much money, and he wouldn’t consider companies from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The water was too deep for him to play with.
After much thought, only Li Chen is the most suitable place.
In his opinion, Li Chen is best known for his creations and his versatility in film, television, singing, and singing, but not his outstanding directing ability.
And his arrival will definitely bring Rongchen Pictures to a higher level.
It depends on whether the bargaining chip he gave himself is worth parting ways with Zhang Weiping.
Zhang Yimou picked up the celadon tea cup, took a sip and nodded: "Good tea."
In fact, he didn't understand tea at all, but the tranquility and fragrance left here, and the peaceful and far-reaching artistic conception made him blurt it out.
Li Chen chuckled and said: "The clouds and mist in Lushan Mountain mean that you can see the sun by turning the clouds."
"Pull the clouds and see the sun?" Zhang Yimou was shocked.
"Yes, I'm glad that you, Director Zhang, came to see me."
"In this way, last year Mr. Yang found Chenglong as an intermediary to offer Feng Xiaogang a transfer fee of 100 million."
“It’s enough to only make three movies in ten years.”
"You are not Feng Xiaogang, and I am not that Mr. Yang."
"Two hundred million should be worthy of your national teacher's worth."
Zhang Yimou was shocked: "Two hundred million?"
Everyone said that Li Chen was generous, but this time he was wise.
Li Chen was very satisfied with Zhang Yimou's reaction.
In fact, Zhang Yimou had already thought about it before he came. His requirements are not high, just be on par with Feng Xiaogang.
Unexpectedly, Li Chen asked for 200 million, which was far higher than his expectations.
"That's right, Director Zhang thinks it's still negotiable if it's too low."
"No, no, that's enough, that's enough, then what do I need to do."
He knew that the two hundred million dollars would definitely not be paid in one lump sum, but the first payment was definitely considerable. "You continue to work in your old business and become the artistic director of Rongchen Pictures. Your salary will be paid and you will receive dividends at the end of the year."
“We only need to shoot four dramas for the company in ten years. We can discuss the details slowly.”
Li Chen knew that Zhang Yimou had been the art director of New Picture and had not signed a contract. He only needed Just resign.
Now that I have decided to accept Lao Mouzi, I must show my sincerity.
In the next ten years, the box office of large-scale productions will easily reach more than one billion, and four movies with two hundred million will make a win-win situation for him and Zhang Yimou.
Zhang Yimou smiled and stretched out his hand: "Thank you, Li Chen."
Li Chen laughed and held Lao Mouzi's hand: "I should thank you, Director Zhang. I hope that in the next ten years, you can Bring out four more Ziyi’s.”
“As long as it’s not Zhang Ziyi, hahaha.”
Zhang Yimou shook his head and smiled bitterly. When he mentioned Zhang Ziyi, he was also embarrassed.
Before Xiaosanmen could get out of the Pomo Gate, he fell into the Fraudulent Donation Gate again, and his reputation plummeted.
I heard that even the endorsement deals with Maybelline and Mercedes-Benz will not be guaranteed.
Thinking of Zhang Ziyi, Zhang Yimou's heart moved: "You are well-connected, do you know who is teasing her?"
Li Chen answered the question inappropriately: "Director Zhang, you should not worry about her affairs. , you have fulfilled your duty as a Bole."
After reaching a consensus with Zhang Yimou, Li Chen and Zhang Yimou left one after another.
I wanted to remind Lao Mouzi to guard against his good partner talking about his transcendence.
But when the words came to his lips, Li Chen still stopped.
Lao Mouzi didn’t mention this kind of thing to himself, so why should he bother with it.
Even if it is revealed in the end, the most you can do is pay a fine.
For Lao Mouzi, it allowed him to completely see the true face of his good brother.
As soon as Lao Mouzi came home, Chen Ting, who was already the mother of three children, immediately came up to him and said nervously: "I'm back, how was the talk?"
Zhang Yimou took off his coat, and Chen Ting immediately brought another cup of hot water: "Drink some water first."
Zhang Yimou drank some water and then smiled and said: "You don't want to change to a bigger house, go and see it. "
"Did you reach an agreement with Director Li?" Chen Ting was pleasantly surprised.
Zhang Yimou nodded, his heart full of joy.
"What conditions did Director Li give you?" Chen Ting asked.
Zhang Yimou smiled and raised two fingers.
Chen Ting thought it was 20 million. Although he was disappointed, he was not unable to accept it.
It is much better than getting a monthly salary in the new screen.
“Twenty million is a bit too low, but Director Li will definitely not delay your salary.”
“Who told you 20 million?”
"Your old man is worth 20 million?" Zhang Yimou said amusedly.
"You, you, you mean two to two hundred million?" Chen Ting stuttered and couldn't speak clearly.
Seeing Zhang Yimou gently nodding, Chen Ting's eyes suddenly turned red and he was choked and speechless.
“Why are you still crying?”
The woman sobbed softly. When you are not a family, you don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are. There are three children and six old people, and they don’t need money.
"I cry when I'm happy, can't I just cry if I like it? Your good brother is enjoying the hot food every day and pretending to be poor with us."
"A movie makes hundreds of millions, so you just make a name for yourself. What's the use!"
"Look at Director Chen and Director Feng, who are not as good as you, look at Director Li, look at the three children, are they as good as you?"
< br>Zhang Yimou was so ashamed by the woman's complaints.
Up to now, the woman and her three children are still in the dark.
Speaking of this matter, the couple was even more dissatisfied with Zhang Weiping.
I made three fake birth certificates to fool the couple. It was obvious that they did not regard Zhang Yimou as a brother.
Seeing her husband lower his head and stop talking.
Chen Ting said again: "By the way, there is no need to hide our affairs from Director Li, right?"
"Director Li has many connections. I believe that as long as you talk to him, he will He will definitely not fool us like Zhang Weiping!”
Zhang Yimou said nothing, frowning as he considered his wife's suggestion.
