Wang Hao was shocked by Zhang Yi's words. He quickly shook his head and said,""Director Zhang, I only made a few suggestions. The core creative work of this movie is still yours, so I'm too embarrassed to take a share of the box office earnings!”
Wang Hao wasn't being pretentious, but he knew his limits!
He said these words because he was an onlooker. It was not a big deal. Zhang Yi was so generous, but he did not react for a moment and was shocked. That was why he was so excited!
However, if Wang Hao didn't know his place and thought he was great, he would just accept the 3% share. If the box office could reach one billion yuan, Zhang Yimou's 3% share would be the most basic 3% share, not the 3% share that the producers would get after taking more than 30%. In other words, the 3% share would be worth 30 million yuan!
Wang Hao was definitely going to be rich if he got the 30 million yuan, but what would Zhang Yi think of Wang Hao?
Wang Hao made up his mind. He couldn't let Zhang Yimou stop working with him just because of a 3% share of the box office!
Even if Zhang Yimou didn't work with him in the future, Zhang Yimou had a lot of connections in the industry. Just like how Zhang Yimou recommended Zhang Ziyi to play Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Wang Hao could make use of his connections to play better and more exciting roles. Then, he would have 30 million more waiting for him. He didn't want to lose more profits in the future for the sake of the current profit!
Zhang Yimou insisted," Your advice is very, very important. It's the finishing touch, turning something rotten into something magical. Without your advice, my film would be a piece of trash. It's meaningless. Your advice is priceless. I must give you a share of the box office!”
Seeing how insistent Zhang Yi was, Wang Hao stood up and pretended to walk out.""Director Zhang, if you're still so insistent, then I can only leave!”
Zhang Yi finally realized that he had been too shocked, too excited, and too carried away. If Wang Hao had really taken the 3% share of the box office earnings, he would definitely have a bad opinion of Wang Hao, and it would definitely affect his future collaboration with Wang Hao!
Fortunately, Wang Hao was smart enough to solve this problem!
All of a sudden, Zhang Yi thought even more highly of Wang Hao!
Wang Hao was so young, yet he was so mature and didn't forget about his own interests. In time, he would definitely become famous!
Therefore, Zhang Yi didn't want Wang Hao to think that he was being slow!
On this point, Zhang Yi had seen many similar situations. Back then, Li Xianxian had supported the star master, but the salary he offered was very low. Later, the star master became popular, and the salary was easily in the millions or tens of millions (1990s). Li still wanted to work with the star master, but he still took the salary of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. Naturally, he did not want to work with Li Xianxian. The two of them parted ways. Why did he do this?
Therefore, Zhang Yi said to Wang Hao,""Since you've said so, I'll forget about the box office share, but I'll give you an additional one million yuan. If the investors don't agree, I'll take one million yuan out of my remuneration. If you treat me as a friend, don't be polite with me anymore.”
Wang Hao smiled and said,""Alright then, I'll do as you say!”
Zhang Yi's affirmation was more valuable than that 30 million!
" After hearing what you just said," Zhang Yimou said to Wang Hao," I want to revise the script right now. After I'm done, you can take a look at it for me. What do you think?"”
Wang Hao still felt that it was too awkward for Zhang Yi, who was over 50 years old, to call him Brother Hao. He said,""Director Zhang, you should still call me Little Wang. I feel like you're making me old!”
"Alright then, I'll call you Lil Hao from now on!" Zhang Yi laughed.”
He then returned to his room and began to revise the script!
Wang Hao didn't disturb Zhang Yi. Instead, he chatted with Gong Li, Zhou Runfa, and Liu Huohua.
He deliberately ignored Yang Mi, so Yang Mi was too embarrassed to pay attention to him.
Zhou Runfa, Gong Li, Liu Huohua, and the others felt that Yang Mi and Wang Hao knew each other beforehand. They either ignored each other or argued with each other from time to time, which made them feel a little awkward!
Wang Hao thought that he had won Zhang Yi a rare opportunity with his temperament and thoughts. Now, after the script was out, he had to start acting. He had to use his acting to convince Zhang Yi and give himself more opportunities!
Wang Hao was looking forward to seeing his acting skills soar by 99.999!
With Yangmi's acting skills, if she acted with him, she would probably be crushed by him!
After more than two hours, Zhang Yi had actually revised the script!
Zhang Yimou showed Wang Hao the revised script!
Wang Hao read it from the beginning to the end and found that Zhang Yimou listened to him and followed his words. The entire script suddenly had a soul, but the details were still handled in the same way as Zhang Yimou did in the past. The grand theme didn't dampen the fun of the movie!
Especially after the editing, Wang Hao's second prince was elevated from a foolish loyalty and filial piety in the original world to the true soul of the movie!
"What do you think of this script?" Zhang Yimou asked nervously.”
Wang Hao nodded and smiled.""Your script is very well written and perfect. If there are no problems with our performances, this movie will definitely sold well!”
Zhang Yi laughed." Thank you for your kind words. I'll send the new script to everyone now. Everyone, memorize your lines. Let's hurry up and shoot!"
It's 5:30 in the afternoon now. Let's finish the first scene first. After we finish eating and put on makeup, we'll officially start filming the second scene!”
