Chapter 919 Difficult North American Situation

Now that Tang Shuxuan knows the various characteristics of American TV series and the possible reactions after they become popular, she will definitely not ignore them.

"I set 15-year contracts for the 33 main actors, and they all agreed. After all, they are not well-known actors." Tang Shuxuan said to Yin Jun, "Since you said it, "Happy Hotel" will definitely If they are prosperous, then we don’t need to spend a lot of money to find stars. Let’s just train these people to become our own stars!”

Yin Jun nodded happily after hearing this.

Americans never regard Chinese actors as human beings, so don't expect Yin Jun to treat American actors as treasures.

Just thinking about the discrimination our actors received when they went there, Yin Jun felt that if he didn't clean up this group of Americans with eyes that reached outer space, he would feel sorry for the stars he had liked.

The first Eddie Murphy he signed was a 10-year contract.

Even if Eddie Murphy became completely popular after filming "Speed" and "Beverly Hills Cop", he would not dare to make a scene, otherwise Yin Jun would hide him for three to five years and he would lose all his popularity.

As for salary and dividends, Yin Jun will definitely follow the rules and won't give much.

If Eddie Murphy is sensible, then there can be more and he can continue to be cultivated. Otherwise, there are so many good actors, so get out of here!

The second actor who signed the contract, Schwarzenegger, is also the son-in-law of the Kennedy family. Didn't he also honestly sign a 20-year, 10-film contract?

Including Rowan Atkinson, who he has worked with before, if he is asked to star in "Mr. Bean" in the future, Yin Jun will definitely sign a harsh long-term contract for him, otherwise Yin Jun would rather put this drama in a safe than Let him take the shot.

There are also those American stars who will be appointed in the future and future stars who have not yet become famous. The boy will not care much about their feelings.

If you want to be popular and star in my movie, then you have to accept the conditions, otherwise I will eat too much and come here to make you famous, and then you will pat your ass and leave, and in the end my hard work will be in vain. ah?

Do you think the United States has a treaty of overlordship?

Of course there is!

There are all of them in 2010.

For example, the goddess Scarlett in the eyes of many people, when she appeared as the Black Widow in the first episode of "Avengers", do you know how much she was paid?

$500,000.

Just $500,000.

Isn't this just a disguised form of bullying?

Then the widowed sister was also on her best, and when she appeared in that extremely alluring black leather coat, she immediately stunned the entire audience.

Therefore, for the second episode of "Avengers", including the second episode of "Captain America", the direct salary increased to about 8-12 million US dollars, which increased twenty to thirty times in one breath!

This means that the actors are strong and the producers suffer.

There is also Hammer Brother in "Thor", who received a lower salary, and he signed a contract for 3 movies in a row. The price can only be increased after the fourth movie, which is even more tragic.

Yin Jun wants to learn from Marvel before and sign more contracts for the actors who star in his movies from the beginning, so that he can be more protected.

Of course, TV series and movies are different, and the contracts cannot be the same.

TV series can be based on the number of years, as long as your salary and remuneration continue to increase, it cannot be static.

In terms of movies, it has never been said that they will be tied together for decades. Otherwise, any movie company can do this, and the actors will never be able to get ahead.

According to California's "Talent Act", including agent contracts, they are only for a maximum of three years, which is why you see Hollywood stars changing agency companies and agents so frequently.

As for movies, you can reach an agreement with the actors on how many movies they will star in in the future, and also agree on salary dividends during these movies, etc. There is nothing against the rules - this is the case with Hammer, Captain, and Iron Man. contract.

Yin Jun's attitude and contracts towards Eddie Murphy and Schwarzenegger are how he will treat other movie stars in the future.

A 20-year, 10-part contract is basically half a star’s lifetime of time and achievements.

Qilin Movies can occupy this part of their precious time, which is enough to squeeze out the best benefits.

As for the rest…

Yin Jun also knows about the American stars in the next 40 years, including younger ones like the Dutch brothers. Is he still afraid that he won't be able to find good talents?

yes.

The 10-movie contract in 20 years is really too harsh. These popular stars will definitely sneer at it, but what about those who are not popular? What about those actors who are at the bottom of the actor ladder, who are determined to climb up, who don’t care about anything, and who can give anything?

Drinking a dove to quench thirst is not something that counts, but in order to succeed and become a big star that thousands of people admire and pursue, what does a 10-film contract in 20 years mean?

It’s not that I won’t praise you, and it’s not that I won’t pay you.

…

"I was filming "Happy Hotel" and I couldn't do it anymore on "American Idol," so I hired a professional evening and performance planning expert who had worked at NBC for ten years and gave him full responsibility for "American Idol." "Chinese Idol"." After talking about the TV series, Tang Shuxuan talked about the reality talent show again, "He has taken your plan and read it carefully, and also received the videotape of "Hong Kong Idol" sent by Kylin TV. I wrote down a lot of information and precautions while reading.

At his speed, he still has to organize a team, advertise, set up registration points across the country, create stage effects, etc. I'm afraid he won't be able to complete the auditions in less than 2 months. If you think about it this way, it won't be officially broadcast until September at least. Isn't it too late? "

"When doing things in the United States, we can't do it like we do in Xiangjiang. The place is small and everything is easy to do." Yin Jun said with a smile, "Let him do it seriously. It doesn't matter even if he starts again next year. I'm here to send If a person goes there, give him some experience and help."

"good!"

With Yin Jun's words, Tang Shuxuan felt more at ease.

In fact, she now feels that she is a little unsteady in filming "Happy Hotel" in such a hurry.

She was under too much pressure.

A person who has never held any management position before suddenly became the helmsman of Disney and United Artists Film Company. He is basically a level higher than the seven giants in Hollywood. Who can be convinced by such a person?

Tang Shuxuan also knew that he did not have such qualifications, but Yin Jun had no one he could use in the United States, so he couldn't let Le Yiling come from Xiangjiang, right?

In addition, Yin Jun said that she did not have to be responsible for specific matters, that is, she only played a better supervisory role, and there was also the promise of "hitting Oscar-winning literary films", so she reluctantly became the North American branch of Kirin Group. of president.

After actually sitting on it, Tang Shuxuan realized that it was more complicated than he thought.

If Disney and United Artists had not become completely private companies, she might not have been able to sit down for three days.

Even now, many people come to her all day long to make decisions and solve problems.

She went to stay on the set of "Happy Hotel" to avoid the limelight.

In addition, Tang Shuxuan really needs an honor so that she can stand firm so that she can convince the public and others will be willing to listen to what you say.

Unexpectedly, "Happy Hotel" did not reach 10 million viewers, not even 8 million. The 4.6 million figure was really average.

She can only hope that in the future, the audience of "Happy Hotel" will continue to rise as Yin Jun said!

Otherwise, Tang Shuxuan really wants to continue producing the second TV series.

"Sister Xuan, are you ready to cooperate with any record company?" Yin Jun asked her.

The biggest gimmick of "American Idol" is of course the winner's record, which allows the winner to make a direct debut as a singer and become a star.

People in Hong Kong cannot bear the temptation of becoming a star, and it is even more impossible for Americans.

But there are so many people in the United States who can produce records, and the gimmicks come in different sizes.

Tang Shuxuan replied, "I think it's better to go to PolyGram! Isn't Lijun back already? It's very honorable to give her records to PolyGram's US branch. Can they still refuse to cooperate with us?"

Yin Jun smiled.

Tang Shuxuan's decision was the best decision.

Teresa Teng's super album, Yin Jun and Pete Vince have promised, will definitely shock the world.

After seeing the miracles Yin Jun created in Japan and "Hand in Hand" in the United States, Pete Vince is certainly willing to believe that he devoted 120% of his energy to preparing this album for Teresa Teng.

Starting in May, when he was ready, he called almost every day, asking Teresa Deng to return to the United States to record songs.

From this we can also know how much PolyGram and Pete Vince have high expectations for Teresa Teng's album.

Under such circumstances, Disney took the initiative to cooperate with PolyGram, and of course they had to give it face.

Even though Teresa Teng has said that after this album, she will take a break for a year or two, but who doesn't want this queen to come out and make another album after she has had enough rest?

This means that Teresa Teng's new album has not been released for sale, otherwise there is no need to say anything more.

Polygram’s strength in the United States is not the strongest.

In the United States, there are also local Universal Records, EMI Records, which also comes from Europe, and SONY Records, which has swallowed up Columbia Records...etc., these are all powerful opponents.

If Yin Jun's variety show can create a few powerful new stars for them, they are too late to be happy, so how can they refuse.

"Since PolyGram, then you should first consider the rights and interests of the management contract and the record contract." Yin Jun said to her, "My opinion is that I would rather ask for less shares and rights, and let PolyGram use it." Use our greatest strength to package and promote them. Only by giving them enough benefits can these records become even more outstanding."

Different from the previous "American Idol", this time Yin Jun's "American Idol" is similar to Hong Kong's "Hong Kong Idol". The top three have record contracts, but the production costs are different.

They are US$5 million, US$2 million and US$1 million respectively.

The chips that attract people are bigger and more attractive.

When PolyGram makes records, the costs are paid by Disney. They are only responsible for publicity and promotion, which can be said to be very relaxed.

"I know." Tang Shuxuan said, "But if you are willing to write a song for them, Ajun, that would definitely be better."

"Look!"

Yin Jun muttered, "In this way, at least I will give the champion a song."

"That's good!"

Tang Shuxuan felt a lot more relieved.

Others don't know about Yin Jun's songwriting ability, how could Tang Shuxuan not know about it?

Especially this time when she returned to Xiangjiang, she also went to listen to Teresa Teng practice singing, and she was simply astonished.

Only then did she realize that others thought they knew Yin Jun well enough, but in fact it was not enough at all!

Not only have you mastered one or two English songs, but there are also more super classic English songs, waiting to shock the world! !
