New Times Art Park, Lu Chen Studio.

Compared with the original place, the new studio has not only expanded in size, but also the structure is far from the original office building. In order to build this “new home”, Lu Chen also specially entrusted a famous design company in Beijing. Decoration design and construction.

Just for the design fee, he paid 500,000, which is still a friendship price.

The so-called one-point price, the new studio invested in huge amount of money is very artistic style, with a simple and bright, detailed and exquisite decoration style.

Lu Chen finally has his own independent office, and there are private places for receiving friends and guests.

As for the place where the original lease was not empty or sublet, it became the office of the Chenfei Charity Foundation and is currently being renovated.

There is a guest in Lu Chen’s office now.

The other person was in his forties, wearing a suit and a tie with a gentle and graceful appearance. His body was slightly thinner, his cheekbones were a bit high on his cheeks, his eyes were too small, but he was a little nearsighted but did not wear glasses. He always squatted intentionally or unintentionally.

The atmosphere in the room was a bit dull, Lu Chen concentratedly looked at a contract document in his hand, and the right index finger resting on the table gently knocked twice, which somewhat exposed his inner feelings at the moment.

The 40-year-old middle-aged man is called Fang Jun. He is the agent of Fang Hui and the cousin of the latter.

The contract in Lu Chen’s hand was brought by Fang Jun.

The content of the contract is mainly the prescription of Fang Hui, the treatment clause in Lu Chen's new drama.

"Blue Life and Death" was completed by Fang Hui. At that time, she was signed directly with Lu Chen Studio, so after the filming was completed, the studio paid her.

Lu Chen and Fang Hui's cooperation was very pleasant, and the "Blue" drama was sold. Later, he and Chen Feier specially packaged two big red envelopes to send them.

Because of the success of "Blue Life and Death", a large part of it is Fang Hui's credit. Her ability to grasp the plot is very strong, and it shows the artistic conception of the story properly. According to the layman's words, it is very beautiful.

Therefore, Lu Chen intends to hand over the new drama "Full House" to Fang Huilai, and it has also been recognized by cooperation.

But things are not that simple.

Fang Hui’s agent brought a contract to Lu Chen, how to say it, a bit too much contract.

In this contract, Fang Hui’s director’s price is 20 times higher than that of the “Blue” drama, reaching 5 million. In addition, he has to enjoy a number of benefit sharing, including part of the copyright share!

Just 5 million in pay, Lu Chen is still acceptable, Fang Hui's "Blue" drama received a pay of 250,000, which is not low at her current price, but no additional revenue.

To say that she is owed to her, so I later gave a red envelope. This is the reason for doing things.

Now it is necessary to shoot a new drama, and it is inevitable to improve the treatment of the director.

In today's film and television circles, the high-ranking directors have a very common phenomenon in addition to the fixed pay, the specific contract terms involve specific situations, and the top directors make a blockbuster or a long play to earn tens of millions. Abound.

Fang Hui’s request for sharing is also normal.

However, when it comes to copyright sharing, Lu Chen can't keep a normal heart.

He has always paid great attention to copyright. For example, his own works are registered copyrights at the first time. Now, selling songs to others still retains some copyrights, such as "Blue Life and Death" and "Full House". In the TV series, the copyright must be firmly in the hands of others, and it is not allowed to be embarrassed by others.

The benefits of ip are the biggest and lasting, and sharing is easy to use.

Therefore, despite the preparations for the new drama, Lu Chen has a lot of partners and multi-party investment to share the benefits, but in the copyright section, he did not loosen the mouth for anyone, this is the golden hen that lays eggs!

Lu Chen was inevitably surprised. In his impression, Fang Hui was not the kind of greedy person. The film she asked for was not outrageous and also worth the price. However, it was a little unbelievable to score the copyright.

Lu Chen’s long silence made Fang Jun a little uneasy. He moved his **** and tried to ask: “Mr. Lu, if you have any opinions or ideas about this contract, you can tell me now.”

Lu Chen glanced at each other quietly.

In the entertainment industry, celebrity artists include directors, and it is common to use their own relatives as agents. For example, his own agent is a sister.

The biggest advantage of using a loved one as a broker is to be reassured, usually without worrying about being betrayed or piggybacked.

Fang Hui accepted Lu Chen's invitation and was willing to continue to direct his new drama, and then let the agent come forward to talk to him about normal treatment. However, there is no problem with the public.

But it is not without problems.

He thought about it and said: "In the past, our studio involved in the contract, and our manager was talking, but today my sister just went out."

Lu Chen talked and said: "I have read this contract. Others can talk about it. I am afraid that the copyright is not discussed, and I feel that the percentage of your request is too high!"

In the last few words, Lu Chen said that he was arrogant and unshakable.

This is the benefit of facing the broker, otherwise if it is the other side of the Huiben, some words are not easy to say.

Fang Jun’s face changed and he smiled. “It’s all right to talk about. The issue of copyright can be put aside first, but in proportion, we can inject capital.”

Capital injection, that is, more requirements, Lu Chen's new drama is not lacking investment!

Lu Chen suddenly understood that the copyright request put forward by the other party was only a scorpion. The real purpose was to divide it into pieces and the appetite was quite large.

He suspects that these nine out of ten are Fang Jun’s own ideas.

It is not uncommon for a star artist's agent to make a self-proclaimed lion's mouth when talking about a contract.

Fang Hui may not know.

Lu Chen sank for a moment, then shook his head and put the contract on the table and pushed back to Fang Jun.

This is the meaning of rejection!

Fang Jun apparently did not expect Lu Chen's attitude to be so tough, and refused to be so determined. He thought that there would be a bit of a sword, and Lu Chen did not give him a chance to show his eloquence.

This made Fang Jun somewhat angry and angry.

He is well prepared today. Not only did he carefully craft the contract, but he also specifically inquired that Lu Xi was absent. He chose to interview Lu Chen and tried to open the gap from Lu Chen.

Lu Chen is very young, and has a good relationship with Fang Hui. With the good reputation in the circle, Fang Jun is thinking about persuading him with his own ability and winning a best contract.

However, Lu Chenyuan is more difficult to deal with than he imagined.

He couldn't help but say: "Mr. Lu, our family Fang Hui is now inviting a lot of people, and the treatment is not low."

Fang Jun did not open the river in the letter, "Blue Life and Death" successfully won a group of new people, but also the former Fang Hui, who was only slightly famous in the circle, was brought to the position of the first-line TV drama director.

A few years later, a number of film and television companies found Fang Hui and invited her to shoot the same type of TV series.

The offer price is quite high!

Otherwise, where the Fang Jun has the confidence to come up with such a contract.

Lu Chen smiled and said: "Mr. Fang, I am a friend with Fang Huijie. I think she can understand it, and I hope her career will be better and better."

Said, Lu Chen also sighed in his heart.

Originally these words should be the most appropriate for Lu Xi, the agent is often black-faced.

There are only some words that Lu Chen does not spit.

In fact, before the Fang Jun, Lu Xi representative Lu Chen studio also refused several contracts, including Zhang Liwei and Hu Yang, two newcomers because of the "Blue" drama.

Both of them want to play roles in Lu Chen's new drama, but the requirements put forward by their agents are very high.

If Lu Chen Studios all meet their requirements, the budget of the new drama is bound to be greatly overrun.

Zhang Liwei and Hu Yang are also very sincere, but the two are now far from being able to compare the "Blue" drama. The agent asks for the first-line treatment. In addition to the pay, there are also such things as shooting out. There are specific conditions for food, clothing, housing, and so on.

Zhang Liwei and Hu Yang may be willing to lower the pay, but the corresponding treatment is not enough, it will be a joke.

Moreover, the two have a lot of films and endorsements.

Therefore, after contact, Lu Chen still gave up these original people. "Full House" is a new drama, not a sequel to "Blue Life and Death". The artist who wants the character has gone more, and there is room for choice. Big.

Fang Hui is also the same reason, she is not irreplaceable.

Lu Chen’s words are all about this. Even if Fang Jun wants to continue talking, he can’t talk about it. He can only take up the contract and try to save it last time: “Mr. Lu, actually”

Lu Chen waved his hand and interrupted his words: "You have to talk to our manager for a while."

In spite of this, in fact, Lu Chen has given up the idea of ​​letting Fang Hui continue to direct the instructions. There are quite a few directors who can shoot the same type of works in the circle, and there are also some choices.

Fang Jun went very unwilling.

Lu Chen became more and more sure that the contract was drafted by him and he was not recognized by Fang Hui.

But what about that? Lu Chen can't directly call Fang Hui to complain?

If you do that, he is too immature.

After a moment of contemplation, Lu Chen called Li sister.

To be honest, his heart is also a little depressed, no wonder others say that the entertainment circle is too complicated, many things are not what you want to be able to do well, the human heart will also change.

In this circle, there is really not much that can always persist in my heart. ——
