The Fantasy Entertainment Empire - Chapter 396
Peng Yuyan said that he was grateful to his agent, and that was not fake at all.
It is a little ridiculous to think about it now that at that time, he was still hesitating about the so-called famous director and big production of “Glory” and another film that had a schedule conflict.
But he can’t be blamed.
The director of another project is a celebrity director and a popular IP adaptation. Although the investment is less than the 800 million yuan of “Glory”, the salary is actually more generous.
At the same time, Dimension Entertainment hadn’t made a name in the film industry at that time. It had only the successful record of a small-cost horror film like “Hell Apartment”, and had never made a major investment in a commercial film-at that time, “War of War”. It hasn’t been released yet.
How to choose between these two projects? This is indeed worth tangling.
If it weren’t for his agent, who tried hard to persuade him, maybe he would really choose another project.
But even so, at the beginning, his agent considered the value of the IP of ‘League of Legends’. It is instinctively felt that such a national-level IP in mainland China, the film adaptation should have relatively good results.
No one would have thought that “Glory” could achieve such a great success.
After listening to some of the next work arrangements from his agent, Peng Yuyan nodded and said, “These are all up to you… But, is there any further arrangements for the sequel of Demacia? “
“Yes.” The agent said, “Dimensional Entertainment has already begun preparations for the sequel, and the name has been tentatively decided, called “Demacia: Dragon Blood”. You are the first actor, the other one. Chris Evans’ role will be much less than yours. However, there will be some other roles introduced in it. In short, your role as Jarvan’s role is still very secure.”
“When will I join the group and start shooting?”
“It is said that the project has already started, and the script and pre-production have already started, but it seems that the funds have not been in place yet, and Dimension Entertainment is still talking to Penguin.”
“You don’t have to worry about funds,” said Peng Yuyan. “The last film that was able to hit tens of billions of dollars in the box office worldwide. Would you worry about funding for the sequel?”
“Well, those two companies are not short of money. I guess they are talking about the distribution of benefits.”
“Then my pay…”
“Don’t think about it.” His agent was also a little helpless. “When I signed the first film earlier, the pay for the sequel was strictly limited in the contract. I have looked for someone to study for a long time, and there are no loopholes. Drill.”
“Is there really nothing to talk about?”
“Nothing to talk about.”
“It’s a pity…” Peng Yuyan said, “I knew that there was no sequel limitation at the time, and five long contracts were signed! And there are more than five long contracts. If you continue to shoot after five, the latter There is also a limited pay for renewal…”
The agent shook his head and said, “Thinking that these are useless. If you don’t sign at the time, Dimension Entertainment will not be able to use yours. Their work is obviously going to be shot for a long time, just like Marvel’s superheroes. . With the example of Robert Downey Jr. first, they can’t help but prevent it.”
“That’s also…”
“It’s already very good now.” The agent reassured him, “The remuneration given by Dimension Entertainment is actually not low. Coupled with the bonus of good film performance and a 30% increase in remuneration, the income of the filming is actually very nice.”
“I understand.” Peng Yuyan said, “I just feel a little pity.”
“Well, in the future, if you take other films and receive commercial endorsements, you will make up all the profits from this part. As for the remuneration of the “De Marcia” series, I will talk to Dimension Entertainment again to see if there is any It’s possible to fight for something, but don’t expect too much.”
…
On the side of Dimension Entertainment, indeed, Peng Yuyan’s agent has received a request for remuneration negotiation.
In fact, it’s not just Peng Yuyan. In the movie “De Marcia: Glory”, the roles played are slightly heavier, especially the actors who play the “heroes” in the original games, who have intentionally or unintentionally come to inquire. Is there any new possibility in the pay?
But the response given by Dimension Entertainment is very firm: impossible, everything is in accordance with the contract.
This matter is too much involved.
If an actor is given this opening, all the actors will pounce on it. The movie is successful, these actors rely on their respective roles, and the lion speaks loudly, so the movie does not need to be filmed-the money earned to feed the actors may not be enough to feed them.
Dimension Entertainment is not stingy in terms of film remuneration. The pay for the film was enough. After the film was successful, in addition to the contract, the entire main creative team was given a bonus of more than 100 million.
Even so, the follow-up actors’ pay must be limited.
The most perfect situation is to maintain the integrity of the main creative team under the condition of orderly controlling the proportion of the actors’ salary in the total cost. And if it doesn’t work until later, from the perspective of Dimension Entertainment, I would rather change actors or abandon the hero’s sequel movie scene ~www.mtlnovel.com~ It is impossible to accept a person like Robert Downey Jr. The salary paid reached more than 60 million U.S. dollars.
That’s horrible.
Of course, they don’t need to worry about this problem for now.
After the great success of “Glory”, Dimension Entertainment immediately launched the corresponding sequel plan.
The new work, tentatively named “Demacia: Dragon Blood”.
The script of “Dragon Blood”, and even the script of the third part of the Demacia trilogy, have actually been completed. Now that the movie has been a big success, the sequel will of course be put on the agenda.
The corresponding preliminary design work has already begun. The most important of these is the design of the second new main character, one is “Dragon Blood Wu Ji Shivana”, and its mother, which is the second big boss, the dragon Iva, this is a Dark legend.
Shivana’s actor has already been determined, and it is a domestic actress, Xin Zhilei.
Xin Zhilei is not a beauty star in the traditional sense. But the professional level is indeed not bad, and he has a good performing skills. With the accumulation of works, his reputation gradually increases.
Of course, Dimension Entertainment chose her to play the Dragon Girl Shivana due to two main factors. One is that Shivana is a dragon, which must be a lot of makeup and post-CG technology to synthesize the image. This is more demanding for the actors’ acting skills, but on the contrary, the requirements for appearance are not so high.
The second point is that Xin Zhilei is not expensive and the pay is controllable.
