Chapter 6 Leap to Beverly 4

As the director of the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series, Spielberg is of course most eager to work with Chen Feng. As long as Chen Feng agrees to participate in his movies, it is not just a matter of making money, but about his fame and honor.

"Yes, as long as you promise to participate in our movie, everything will be easy to talk about." As the screenwriter and producer of this movie, George Lucas is also easy to talk about. "Steven talked to me before. As long as you are willing to participate in the movie, you can modify and create the script of this movie with me. We can even give you a certain casting right. Except for Harrison Ford, we can leave all the other casting candidates to you."

The two actually gave the casting rights to the starring Chen Feng, which can be said to be very sincere.

However, of course, these are not what Chen Feng wants the most. What Chen Feng really wants is box office dividends. And it must be more than 80%. Seeing that they are so sincere, Chen Feng couldn't hide it anymore. So, after he pondered for a moment, he also expressed his plans in his heart: "You should all know the box office revenue of my two movies now. Therefore, in Shangyan Shang, although I am an actor, I can also be considered a businessman. If I participate in "Haikao", you must give me the reward I deserve, especially the box office dividend. The minimum box office dividend I personally require must be at least 80%. As for the pay, I don't need to only 100 million US dollars. I can invest this money in the movie as an investment, but the box office dividend must be increased accordingly. For the specific proportion, you have to talk to my agent."

When the three of them heard Chen Feng's request, they were stunned for a long time before they reacted. Then they looked at each other. To be honest, although they had already expected it, they did not expect that Chen Feng's request was so high.

The pay of 100 million US dollars is really not high. Previously, a film company offered Chen Feng a pay of 200 million US dollars. Especially after Chen Feng's second film was sold globally and once again created a box office myth, several major film companies in Hollywood even opened their pay to a sky-high price of 300 million US dollars. With the box office guarantee of two movies, especially the second low-cost movie that originally did not meet the requirements of high box office was still sold, which fully proves Chen Feng's huge box office appeal. Chen Feng's global billions of fans are the best box office basis for the movies he made.

Of course, this kind of sky-high pay is secondary. The real thing is the box office dividend. Some superstars in Hollywood have box office dividends. For example, Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise, the two Tom, both have box office dividends without exception. The problem is just a matter of the proportion, but generally it does not exceed 10%.

In response to Chen Feng's special situation, Spielberg and George Lucas have previously made it possible to raise the box office dividend to an extremely high standard of 50%, which means that he can take half of the profits. As for the pay, they are even willing to offer Chen Feng 200 million US dollars.

But unexpectedly, Chen Feng's minimum box office dividend standard was 80%, completely exceeding the two's previous estimates.

Brad Gray was also scared by the dividend ratio proposed by Chen Feng. If Chen Feng took away 80%, then the remaining 20% ​​would have to argue with them Paramount, Spielberg and George Lucas, which is obviously not what he would like to see.

Brad Gray represented Paramount before, and he had his own minimum standard line. That is, as the producer, Paramount must get at least 30% of the box office dividends. Now, Chen Feng has at least 80% of the time he opens his mouth. Obviously, it is quite different from the minimum standard set by him.

For a moment, the three of them were all in their minds. Of course, they would not take the initiative to say that Chen Feng asked for such a request, because Chen Feng had the confidence to do so, and he really had to calculate according to the box office standards of these two movies. Even if Chen Feng only had 20% of the profit left to them, they could still make a lot of money.

For example, Chen Feng's first movie now has a box office of over 10 billion US dollars, and 20% of this is at least 4 billion US dollars. According to this standard, they certainly have something to make.

Seeing that they didn't say anything, Chen Feng said again: "I know you may think that my requirements are a bit high, and even a lion speaks loudly, but you must also be very clear about the box office of the two movies I participated in. According to the box office standards of these two movies, even if I want to go 90% and only 10% are left for you, you will still make a profit and not lose money. Of course, you have to talk to my agent about how to distribute dividends in detail."

Brad Gray's eyes turned slightly and he quickly said, "In principle, I agree with your dividend ratio, but you also know that such a dividend ratio has never been in the history of film. Even if I am the chairman of Paramount, this matter must be discussed on the board of directors. However, before that, I can talk to your agent first. I will contact her tomorrow."

Brad Gray made such a statement on behalf of Paramount, and Spielberg and the others had to express their opinions. Spielberg first consulted George Lucas with his eyes. After seeing him nodding slightly, Spielberg naturally understood it.

The two of them are good friends, they have a tacit understanding of each other, and they are both producers of "Raiders of the Lost Ark".

"In principle, we agree with your request. However, we have to sit down and talk to your agent for the specific box office dividend. As for you to invest 100 million US dollars in this movie, I don't think it's necessary because we have raised enough investment to make this movie well."

As long as the news of Chen Feng's participation is revealed slightly, this movie will certainly not lack investment. What's more, they are also very sure that as long as Chen Feng participates, the movie will be sold well. Naturally, they raise money to invest, rather than letting others invest money in and enjoy the profits. The same goes for Chen Feng. If Chen Feng is asked to count the salary as investment in, the proportion of box office dividends will naturally increase again. In that case, they will have to work for Chen Feng completely.

Chen Feng didn't want to make all the money himself, so he didn't force it and nodded indifferently and said, "Okay. The problem now is the ratio of the box office dividends of our three parties. At that time, you can just have a good talk with my agent. I won't participate."

"Okay. We will contact your agent tomorrow." After Spielberg finished speaking, he stretched out his hand at Chen Feng. "I wish us a happy cooperation." As the director of the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series, Spielberg is of course the most eager to cooperate with Chen Feng. As long as Chen Feng agrees to participate in his movies, this is not just a matter of making money, but about his fame and honor.

"Yes, as long as you promise to participate in our movie, everything will be easy to talk about." As the screenwriter and producer of this movie, George Lucas is also easy to talk about. "Steven talked to me before. As long as you are willing to participate in the movie, you can modify and create the script of this movie with me. We can even give you a certain casting right.

However, of course, these are not what Chen Feng wants the most. What Chen Feng really wants is box office dividends. And it must be more than 80%.
