☆, Chapter 27 Opportunity
Director Lin agreed that the signing location would be at the company.
Wen Mianyu arrived on time. When she knocked on the door and entered the office, she found that the producer Wang Xin, with whom she had dinner last night, was also there.
When Wang Xin saw her come in, he didn't stand up. His eyes were full of the pressure of a superior. After glancing at her deeply, he lowered his head to look at the contract in his hand.
Director Lin was as enthusiastic as ever. He stood up and greeted, "Xiao Su is here. Come and sit down."
Wen Mianyu walked over and sat down, then reached out to take the contract handed to her by Director Lin.
"This was drafted by the legal department yesterday. Please take a good look at it. The finance department has already prepared the remuneration, and it will be transferred to your card after you sign the contract," said Director Lin.
Wen Mianyu responded while flipping through the contract and glancing at the remuneration first.
Three hundred thousand.
It certainly can't be compared with the tens of millions of dollars in salary in the previous life, but for a new actor, it is a normal price.
This is how it is when making art films. The investment cannot be compared with commercial blockbusters. Big directors like Director Lin will use the investment more on filming. Even a star like Lu Congxu may not get a salary of over 10 million.
So why did Lu Congxu agree to make this movie?
Wen Mianyu suddenly realized this problem.
With Lu Congxu's current status, he doesn't need to make this kind of art film to improve his status or prove anything. He is a big star who can carry the box office. A box office failure will affect his commercial value. Why should he do such a thankless task?
Is it for grandpa?
It can't be for yourself, right?
If it were in the past, Wen Mianyu would not be so narcissistic, but after what happened last night, many things always seem a little subtle when she thinks about them more.
Did Lu Congxu know he would be acting in the show when he signed the contract?
Wen Mianyu suddenly wanted to know the answer to this question, but with her current identity, Director Lin would not reveal it even if she asked him.
It was so inconvenient to be reborn as Su Moli, Wen Mianyu couldn't help but sigh.
Director Lin thought she was dissatisfied with something. "The pay isn't too high. You're a new actor with little experience, so you can only take this much. Of course, if you act in a TV series, you'll definitely earn more. Movies and TV series are different."
Wen Mianyu shook her head, "No, you misunderstood Director Lin. I'm not complaining about the low pay. I was just thinking about something else and was inspired to write this."
"That's good." Director Lin breathed a sigh of relief. They really didn't want to miss out on such a great prospect. "Then take a good look at him. I'm going to have a cigarette. Don't worry. Sign him after you've made your decision."
"OK."
After Director Lin left, Wen Mianyu read through the rest of the terms at a glance, found no problems, and picked up a pen to sign.
Wang Xin stretched out a hand to block her, "Miss Su."
Wen Mianyu looked up.
Wang Xin raised his eyebrows meaningfully. "Before signing the contract, I think there are some rules in the industry that I need to make sure Miss Su is fully aware of."
Wen Mianyu put down her pen and leaned back in her chair. "Oh, what does Producer Wang want to say?"
"Miss Su has always been a bit player and hasn't had any serious roles. Naturally, she hasn't had the opportunity to meet these big names in the industry. I understand why she doesn't understand their power of speech," Wang Xin said with the tone of a veteran. "I don't mind explaining it to Miss Su."
"The person with the most say in a film isn't the director, nor me as a producer, but the investors who control the flow of funds. These bigwigs can decide who will play the leading role with just one word. This is an opportunity that young actors can't get even if they audition for a hundred crews."
