I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 94 [Deed of Sale]

Are they all treated the same?
This statement is quite novel.

Let’s just say that the scene recorder, photographer, and make-up are all the same.

The salaries of the assistant director and actors are the same as others?
At the dinner table, everyone got a contract.

A few actors and assistant director Zhang Yu hesitated for a while, but he still calmed down and looked at the contract in his hand.

Lu Zhengyi didn't bother them either.

The first one moved his chopsticks and waited for them to speak while eating.

The formation of the team is something Lu Zhengyi has always wanted to do.

Originally, he thought that he might have to work hard in a few plays to make his reputation known, and then he would come back and think about it.

But what he didn't expect was that a revealing post of the old corpse in the mountain village sent him a hot search, and it went viral.

As far as the current situation is concerned, although the mountain village old corpse is offline in theaters, the revenue on the online platform is far higher than the box office several times.

And next, this movie should be able to take advantage of this popularity to get a good start. At least, don't worry that it will be affected by the inherent impression of the horror movie market in Tang Dynasty like the first movie. Not many people are willing to go to the theater to support it at the beginning.

Curse, it is enough to get a chance to be treated equally.

In terms of quality, Lu Zhengyi is quite satisfied with this film.

Based on the works in his previous life, he absorbed many negative reviews, good reviews, and suggestions from the Internet at that time, and perfected this film.

And there is also the real ghost Chu Renmei who is coordinating. He is confident in the quality of this film.

"This is... the model of a private theater troupe?"

Zhang Yu was the first to read the contract, and looked at Lu Zhengyi, "Give me an arrangement."

Like the contract, it refers to the guaranteed salary and treatment.

Lu Zhengyi's current conditions are somewhat similar to the model of a cultural troupe.

Regardless of whether you work or not, you have a guaranteed salary every month.

On this basis, the person in charge of the troupe can interfere with the actual work of the troupe personnel.

If the person in charge agrees, in the absence of performances, private work can be accepted.

But once there is a formal performance, they must strictly abide by the requirements of the troupe, conduct rehearsals, and give priority to working for the troupe's own affairs.

But speaking carefully, it's a bit like a brokerage company.

It's just that compared to a brokerage company, Lu Zhengyi not only signs actors, but also includes field management, photography, makeup... This series of staff, it is more appropriate to describe it as a theater troupe.

The recorder Bai Wei, the prop Ajie, the make-up Xiaowei and others looked at the contract happily.

As far as the guaranteed minimum salary in this contract is, it is much higher than their current salary.

Not to mention, there is the added benefit of actually filming.

Sign, must sign!
"Then, how to calculate the extra income of the official performance?"

Chang Zhengwei asked softly.

Compared with the staff of the crew itself, these actors are more concerned about extra income.

Beside, Zhang Yuming and Yu Wenxiu are also more concerned about this.

"Pay attention to Article [-]. The interpretation of the clauses is roughly that, as everyone's technical investment, through the film, I will share [-]% of the actual profit with everyone."

Lu Zhengyi replied casually while eating the dishes, "As for how to allocate, the roles of each drama are different."

"There are also the complexity of the makeup, the preparation of the props, and the layout of the scenes... These are different for each play. When the time comes, I will distribute them in the form of 'bonuses' according to the actual situation."

"For example, for the movie "Old Corpse in the Mountain Village", the current box office revenue and network revenue are paid after taxes and distributed to investors, distributors, theaters, and Green Apple platform... I actually got about 3000 million to 4000 million. If the contract was signed at that time, there are currently about 400 million that can be used as bonuses, which can be distributed according to everyone's workload."

The moment the voice fell, he could feel that the eyes of these people in front of him became eager.

400 million, is that much?

In this circle that seems to be full of gold, with millions or tens of millions of paychecks casually, it seems that there are very few.

But in fact, 400 million is still a lot.

Whether it's for those traffic stars, or for an ordinary actor or crew, it's a pretty big amount.

After all, the remuneration is written as tens of millions or millions. After the settlement, the amount will be divided here and there. How much money is actually left in your own hands depends on the conscience of the company and the size of the studio.

"Director Lu, isn't the liquidated damages a bit high?"

Yu Wenxiu was relatively sober, and her eyes were not blurred by the string of numbers.

She brought up the second issue, default.

"I said, after signing the contract, I will never treat you badly, but I will not let you go either."

Lu Zhengyi stopped eating and stared at her closely, "Whether you sign or not is up to you."

"By the way, I would like to remind you that as long as I do not breach the contract, once the contract is signed, you will almost have to follow me to retirement age."

"To be realistic, this is a contract of sale."

He said those three words without hesitation.

Anyway, in a word, after signing the contract, the money will definitely not be less.

But people have to be tied to the crew.

"Director Lu, I suddenly have a question."

What surprised Lu Zhengyi was that Zhang Yuming also had problems.

Just listening, he asked hesitantly, "Well... your contract should not add any special magic power, magic power, etc.?"

"What I mean is, after we die, we shouldn't be like Teacher Chu Renmei, we have to follow you."

"Of course, I'm not, uh..."

Zhang Yuming didn't know how to explain this matter.

But the meaning of these words is already obvious.

In an instant, Bai Wei and the others, who had already signed their names and were afraid that Director Lu would regret it, suddenly froze.

They stared blankly at Zhang Yuming, and then looked at the contract in their hands. They wanted to tear it up, but they didn't dare to tear it up.

"...As I said, I'm just a director, not a Taoist priest." Lu Zhengyi was helpless, "This is an ordinary contract, and...you can become ghosts if you sign the contract, so you can't be happier, and then you can be as unscrupulous as Teacher Chu Renmei."

While talking, he glanced at Chu Renmei, who was quiet beside her.

He really thought that this two-year-old boy could actually ask some questions about these terms.

Unexpectedly, he could have such a problem.

Thinking about it carefully, the others seem to be the same.

Judging from Teacher Chu Renmei's experience, becoming a ghost doesn't seem like a bad thing.

On the contrary, it is still luck!
"Anyway, I'm almost fifty years old now, and I haven't retired for a few years."

Zhang Yu signed the contract without hesitation, "Director Lu, I will leave all the remaining years to you."

"Money, in fact, I now have a house, a car and a family, and I am quite satisfied."

"Now, I just want to keep a roll call, so that nothing will be left behind after death."

Lu Zhengyi replied without hesitation, "Don't worry, there will definitely be ones, let's talk first, I'm not drawing cakes."

"When I was wandering around the village a few days ago, someone asked me to sign my autograph." Chang Zhengwei also raised his pen, "It was Director Lu who gave me this fame. I am willing to continue walking on this road with you."

Zhang Yuming opened his mouth, also wanting to say something sensational.

But after holding back for a long time, he closed it again, and silently signed his name.

All of them signed, and all of a sudden, only Yu Wenxiu, who joined the crew of this film, was left.
