After thinking for a while, Yang Mi chose to take a step back.
It was common for actors to discuss pay. However, they only talked about such things after they became famous and had enough confidence.
If it was a newcomer who rejected the director's pay, this kind of behavior was basically equivalent to courting death.
Right now, she was just a simple assistant. Whether Guan Ping succeeded or failed, it had nothing to do with her. They had only met for a few hours, how deep could their friendship be?
The scenes of celebrities resigning and their assistants resigning in TV dramas would not happen to her, at least not now.
After all, she still needed this job to pay for her mother's high medical expenses.
Seeing this, Feng Dagang was also a little dissatisfied. Guan Ping wasn't satisfied with a salary of nearly 10 million yuan. Could it be that he wanted 300,000 to 400,000 yuan per episode?
"One percent." Guan Ping stretched out two fingers and said seriously,"I want 1% of the revenue from this movie.”
Guan Ping was a newbie now, and he only became the male lead of this movie because Director Feng appreciated him. One percent was already a lot.
If it was any more, the investors would not give it at all.
Director Feng fell into deep thought.
The total investment for the drama was 300 million yuan. It could be said to be a huge investment. However, no one could say for sure how much profit it would bring.
This was because television dramas were different from movies. The movie only needed to be watched at the box office.
However, TV dramas were different. They relied on the purchase rate of TV stations, viewership ratings, and advertisements to make money. This kind of thing was unpredictable, and no one dared to say how much they could definitely earn.
In this world, there had never been an actor who wanted to be paid so much.
After thinking for a moment, Director Feng suddenly said,"According to my many years of experience, this movie will only earn 400 million yuan. At most, it won't exceed 500 million yuan. This is only half of the price I offered. I don't want to see you regret it in the future."
"There is no such thing as regret in my dictionary of life.”
"I have confidence in this movie. It'll definitely be a hit," Guan Ping said with a smile.”
He was so confident that he was arrogant. No actor in the world had ever made a bet with their own pay.
Gambling, whose life wasn't gambling?
Director Feng's eyes flashed with fanaticism as he laughed and said,"Kid, just for your arrogance, I'll give you 1.5%. Act well!"
1.5%. Guan Ping nodded his head in satisfaction.
Director Feng must have taken some risks to create a new way of paying a newcomer. Since that was the case, he would use his results to shut everyone up.
Looking at the two men in front of her, Yang Mi suddenly felt a little emotional. The fate of people could not be the same, because some people were born winners.
After filming for two days, Guan Ping was more or less familiar with the rules of the set. He no longer had the word 'newbie' written all over his face like when he first arrived.
During this time, he also met the pretentious Sun Ming. Now, his attitude towards Gong He had changed drastically. She called him senior for no reason.
Every day, he would bring tea and water, give cigarettes and invite wine. It made him look more like Guan Ping's assistant than Yang Mi.
After a few days of hard work, Sun Ming plucked up his courage and said,""Senior, I've asked someone to help me read my fortune. My birth characters are against Huo Du. So, can you ask the old man to help me say something and change my role?”
Huo Du's role was already not bad. Although he couldn't reach the position of the fifth male lead that Sun Ming had always boasted about, at least he had a chance to show his face.
Although he was someone who had been beaten up all the time, at least he could show his face when he was beaten up.
That day, he saw with his own eyes Director Feng's special care for Guan Ping, so he had a little idea.
If he could please this young master and ask his old man to help him, he could at least save him a few years of hard work.
He had been busy these past two days just to show off in front of Guan Ping. Since he had yet to film the role of Huo Du, he wanted to see if he could get Guan Ping to introduce himself to the resourceful Guan Ba Ba.
Even if he had to get familiar with them first.
There was no such thing as a free lunch. There must be a reason for deliberately pleasing others.
Actually, Guan Ping had been waiting for him to speak.
"He even changed your role? Do you believe that if he knows that I'm filming here, he'll break my legs?”
Hearing Guan Ping's words, Sun Ming was confused and asked,""W-why?"
"Why?" Guan Ping pretended to laugh mockingly." My family is considered a prestigious family. My family has already paved the way for me." I was the one who secretly ran out to film. I was prepared to tell them after I made a name for myself.”
Sun Ming pondered for a moment. That was right. Very few people in those big families would agree to their descendants acting. Most of the older generation hoped that their children would inherit their father's legacy.
Well, it seemed like there was no hope of changing roles in this movie.
Thinking of this, Sun Ming's face couldn't help but darken.
"However…" Guan Ping changed the topic and continued,"As long as my movie becomes famous, the reaction at home will definitely be much quieter. You're not bad, kid. When the time comes, I'll definitely bring you to show off and fly with me.”
This sentence gave Sun Ming hope. It was like a lost ship that had seen a lighthouse.
"Aiya, Master Guan, you're too kind. I'm a rather stupid person. How can I not do well? Please guide me."
Sun Ming quickly ran behind Guan Ping and started massaging his shoulders and back. He looked like a lackey.
This made Yang Mi, who was standing next to him, not know whether to laugh or cry. Someone had taken away her assistant's job. It made her extremely free every day. Speaking of which, he was still not used to it.
