Shanghai Culture Film Company signed a gambling agreement with Ian.
If the box office sales of Young Man's You didn't exceed one billion yuan…
In that case, Ian would not get a single share of the money.
This meant that he had to mortgage his own house and spend 100 million yuan to film this movie, working for others for nothing.
As the director, lead actor, and screenwriter, he would not get a single piece of money.
He even had to invest 100 million yuan into it.
If 'Young Man's You' broke through one billion at the box office.
In that case, Ian would eventually get 90% of the box office earnings, while Shanghai Culture would only get the remaining 10%.
In the end, the box office earnings of 'You the Youngster' were only a little over one billion yuan.
After splitting the box office earnings with the theater chains, Ian could get the remaining 90%, which was about 400 to 500 million yuan.
It was equivalent to a net profit of 300 to 400 million!
As for the remaining 10% from Shanghai Culture, it would not earn much at all.
Therefore, Yang Le panicked, and Shanghai Culture panicked.
Yang Le couldn't wait for the box office of Young Man's You to not increase by a single cent from tomorrow onwards.
He couldn't wait for everyone to go see the Magic City Fortress and Tiny Era.
Even if the box office earnings of 'Young You' were fixed at 620 million.
Shanghai Culture could also earn at least 300 million yuan.
To be honest.
Yang Le was the person who single-handedly led this gambling agreement.
He would never have thought of it.
The box office earnings of Young You could explode like this!!
He racked his brains now, but he still could not understand why such a depressing and realistic youth film completely went against the market demand.
It could still have such a high box office.
Even if the quality of the movie was really good.
"Ian really can't be underestimated!”
"He was the one who proposed the bet. At that time, when I saw the confidence on his face, I thought that this person was extremely confident!”
Yang Le recalled the day he signed the gambling agreement with Ian.
The expression on Ian's face.
Now that he thought about it, he felt a lingering fear!
"This person is a monster!"
However, it was useless to think about this now.
Yang Le called for an emergency meeting.
The company held a meeting on how to earn more profits from the movie, Young Man's You.
Yang Le proposed two emergency plans.
The first plan was to continue developing like this and follow Ian.
The second plan was to negotiate with Ian. Revise the contract!
Of course, there was another plan.
That was to use his connections to remove the youngster from the cinema.
Of course, this plan was almost useless. First of all, whether Ian would agree or not.
Even the cinema chain would probably not agree.
This movie was so profitable. How could the capitalists not make a profit?
Besides, if it was really taken off the shelves…
Shanghai Culture would probably not be able to release any other films in the industry.
This kind of disgusting behavior would definitely make other film makers feel disappointed.
Also, the netizens would probably criticize Shanghai Culture until it went bankrupt!
They decided to use the second plan first.
He wanted to negotiate with Ian and change the contract!
This time, the company still planned to send Yang Le.
Ian had been very busy recently and did not have time to see Yang Le at all.
When Yang Le saw that he couldn't get an appointment with Ian, he went straight to Ian's studio and found him.
In Ian's office, Yang Le finally saw Ian!
"Director Su, we meet again!”Yang Le's face was full of smiles.
Her attitude was completely different from the last time she met Ian!
"Yes, Manager Yang, what brings you here?”
Ian pretended not to understand Yang Le's intentions.
In fact, Ian knew very well.
Yang Le must have come to change the contract with him at this time.
After all, Young Man's You was so popular now that it was certain that it would break the one billion box office.
The higher the box office, the more Ian would earn. Of course, Shanghai Culture would also earn more.
However, compared to what Ian earned, it was a drop in the ocean.
The higher-ups of Shanghai Culture felt that it was unfair.
Didn't that mean that they were working for Ian?
In the eyes of the higher-ups of Shanghai Culture, Ian's movie did not even have a distribution company back then. They had to rely on them to get it into the cinema.
Why did Ian earn so much while they could only take a sip of the soup?
If they split the profits according to the market price, they could get at least 30% to 40%.
"Director Su, it's like this. This time, I'm here for the gambling agreement from before!”
"Back then, there were indeed people who were blind. I didn't see your potential.”
"I'm here. I'll apologize to you first!”
Yang Le's attitude was very sincere and very low-key.
Su Ye remembered very clearly that the last time they talked, Yang Le belittled the young man as if he was useless.
"Yeah, what's wrong? You want to change the contents of the agreement?"
Ian crossed his legs and smiled.
"As expected, I can't hide anything from you, Director Su!”
"Impressive!"
Yang Le gave Ian a thumbs up.
He was starting to lick Ian like crazy.
"How do you want to modify it?" Ian looked at Yang Le teasingly.
"We don't have high expectations. According to the agreement, if the box office hits one billion, our company will only get 10%. We want to change it to 30%. 30% was much lower than the market share.”
"This way, we can all benefit, right?”
"In the future, we can still work together for a long time!”
Yang Le's eloquence was quite good. His attitude was very humble, and his words sounded quite reasonable.
"A 30% ratio is indeed lower than the market ratio!”
Hearing this, Yang Le's eyes could not help but light up!
