Zou Wenhuai felt that Lin Li was asking for too much.
However, in Lin Li's eyes, this request was not a request at all. In the future, any movie that he casually shot would definitely not be bad.
Now, he was only temporarily relying on Zou Wenhuai.
However, Lin Li could see the dissatisfaction in Zou Wenhuai's heart, and continued,"Boss Zou, how about this?"
Lin Li said unhurriedly,"I'm in charge of the screenwriting of the movie. If the box office earnings are less than five million, I won't be able to earn a single cent. However, if it reaches five million, how about you give me a share?”
Five million?
Zou Wenhuai couldn't help but gasp.
Lin Li was really boasting shamelessly. Did he really think that his scriptwriting skills could make the box office exceed five million?
In this day and age, a box office sales of around one million yuan was already considered high.
How confident was Lin Li to say that it was five million?
"Boss Zou, I also think that Ah Li has the ability!”Bruce Lee patted his chest and said,"I've never seen a screenwriter and martial arts director who's better than Ah Li!”
Zou Wenhuai pondered for a moment, then nodded and said,"Alright, since Li Ji is so confident, I'll agree!”
Then, Zou Wenhuai asked someone to bring the contract.
Originally, Zou Wenhuai planned to let Lin Li sign for five years, but later, he changed it to three years.
Three years.
Lin Li received 3,000 Hong Kong dollars a month as his salary. Apart from that, he also received box office dividends, actor fees, and director fees.
If it were the Shao family, Zou Huai would probably laugh and throw Lin Li around.
The reason why Lin Li dared to do this was because…
Firstly, he had Bruce Lee's support. Secondly, Zou Wenhuai was indeed magnanimous. Thirdly, Lin Li only asked for such a large sum of money because Zou Wenhuai was still in the early stages of his business. When Jiahe really developed, Lin Li wouldn't ask for so much.
The details of the contract were discussed again.
For example, Lin Li could also go to other companies to shoot movies as a director.
More importantly, Brother Tang Shan, Lin Li asked for the dividends from the script.
In history, Brother Tang Shan's box office earnings were 3.2 million Hong Kong dollars.
However, Lin Li was confident that he could break through 5 million.
After all, he was involved in a script that surpassed this era. Of course, he still had to consider the audience of this era.
They're used to watching movies, and the entire population of Xiangjiang, whether they can support the box office of five million.
However, Lin Li felt that it would not be a problem for him to add a little more force to five million yuan.
After doing all this.
Bruce Lee said excitedly,"Wen Huai, let me show you a new script. This is something that Lin Li just wrote!”
"This script…" Zou Wenhuai couldn't help but complain when he saw this word.
The handwriting was too ugly!
Lin Li could not help but blush. Although he had written scripts before, he had always used a computer to type. Who would use pen washi?
He picked up his pen and forgot to write, plus some simplified Chinese characters.
Yes!
If Bruce Lee hadn't handed it to him, Zou Wenhuai would have thrown it aside. However, he still endured the discomfort and continued to watch.
Hiss!
Zou Wenhuai couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. The idea of this Jingwu Sect was much higher than that of Brother Tang Shan.
Moreover, Lin Li's scriptwriter habits were still those of later scriptwriters.
First, write the outline.
After that, he would write a character biography
and finally the script outline to highlight the main selling points.
Then, it was the overall script.
Apart from these, Lin Li also drew a lot of storyboards, which made Zou Wenyou feel that he could see everything at a glance.
Although the word was a little too ugly to look at, the story of this script was really good.
The idea was very clear, especially the selling points.
"Good!" Zou Wenhuai couldn't help but shout.
He felt that he had not misjudged Lin Li. Lin Li was really capable. He had completed the new script in such a short period of time, which was enough to raise his evaluation of Lin Li to a higher level.
Not to mention anything else, just the outline of this martial arts sect was quite extraordinary.
"I'll show this script to Rowe later!”Zou Wenhuai laughed and continued,"Alright, tonight is the premiere of Brother Tang Shan. Let's go and watch it together!”
The premiere of Big Brother Tang Shan, was it that fast?
Lin Li couldn't help but feel a little excited. In the future, it was normal for a movie to be delayed for three to four months after it was sent for review and through various connections.
However, it was extremely easy now.
Jiahe had its own cinema line. The movie would be filmed in a month and then released quickly.
Bruce Lee's wife, Lin, son, Lee Guohao, and daughter, Lee Xiangning, had returned to Xiangjiang from America to attend the premiere of 'The Big Brother from the Afterworld'.
Lin Li naturally had to go with them.
Although he didn't get much pay, he was still the second male lead.
Apart from Lin Li, Rowei, and Bruce Lee, he also saw many other people.
These people were all Longhu Martial Masters from Xiangjiang City. They were not here to watch a movie, but to protect them.
There used to be an unwritten rule in the Xiangjiang film industry, that was, the good or bad of each film had to be evaluated by the audience at the first premiere.
If the swindler was good, the whole house would naturally cheer and the box office would naturally be guaranteed. If the film was bad, then sorry, scolding you was light. It was even possible to beat you up.
Lin Li could not help but complain. This rule was really f * cking strange.
However, Lin Li was still very confident in his scriptwriter abilities.
Although Brother Tang Shan had been modified beyond recognition, Lin Li was very confident that it would only make the film look better.
Lin Li was slightly stunned when he arrived.
Here, he saw Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, and a group of people. They were not famous yet, so they could only stay in Jiahe as Dragon Tiger Martial Masters.
Lin Li was a little disappointed that he didn't find Cheng Long.
She wanted to see her big brother's unabated.
Now that he thought about it, his current status was different from theirs. This group of people were still Dragon Tiger Martial Masters, and they were getting beaten up.
As for himself, he had changed the script to become the second male lead.
A monthly salary of 3,000 Hong Kong dollars and the possibility of becoming a director was many times better than their salary.
In the future, they would still have to curry favor with him.
Under everyone's anticipation, Brother Tang Shan began.
