Chapter 621: They are blind

Taking advantage of this time to shoot commercials, Shen Huan and Todd Phillips finalized the contract.
The main body of the contract is Fengxiang Film and Television Company.
The first sum of 10 million US dollars, Shen Huan has called him, let him do the initial preparations.
The second batch of US $ 20 million will be brought in after the crew officially starts operating.
The third batch of USD 20 million will be re-imported to the crew account when the shooting is almost the same.
If there is something to add, Todd Phillips is to discuss with Shen Huan one month in advance.
Shen Huan did not find someone to supervise the crew.
It's not that he doesn't have vigilance, but this movie is the hard work of Todd Phillips, he wants to make better than anyone else.
Under the premise of being photographed, Todd Phillips certainly will not have any money or misrepresentation.
And for Todd Phillips, the success of this movie is more important to him than eating 10 million dollars and 20 million dollars.
So as long as Shen Huan can monitor his financial status at any time-on this point, he will always write on the account book and send it to an account on the Internet for Shen Huan to check at any time.
The teenager also knew that "The Clown" would get a box office of more than 1 billion US dollars. For those who can make money for themselves, it does not matter if they spend a little more money.
It's just that Shen Huan didn't treat Todd Phillips badly. He gave Todd Phillips a 5% box office share.
A little more than 1 billion US dollars at the box office, Todd Phillips can get at least 50 million US dollars in compensation, which is also worthy of him.
Fetode Phillips gave Shen Huan the copyright of "The Clown".
Although I will shoot "Joker 2" in the future, I still need Warner's authorization, but after all, Shen Huan has a good IP.
Yes.
Warner agreed to the plans of Todd Phillips and Shen Huan, but only for this "Clown", I will talk about it later.
This also shows that Hollywood companies are definitely not eating dry food.
It is impossible for them to betray their future rights and interests continuously for the benefit immediately.
Even if Todd Phillips had already set the price high.
Warner Bros. was not very optimistic about the "Clown" project, but this did not prevent them from letting Shen Huan and Todd Phillips try.
If the effect is good, they will follow up immediately.
If the effect is not good, anyway, the production costs are paid by Fengxiang Film and Television Company, they are only responsible for distribution.
In order to encourage Todd Phillips to shoot better, after considering a few days, they also actively made concessions.
"Clown" After they took the copyright of 20 million US dollars, they gave up the box office share, and even the distribution fee was reduced to 12% of the box office.
The price of 12% is considered very kind.
After all, the screening requirements of at least 1,000 screens, the price of 1,000 copies, and the supporting promotional costs, etc., are not cheap.
From this, we can also calculate how much Warner Bros. ’s box office estimate is for The Clown.
Is about 120-150 million US dollars.
Shen Huan could not help but want to laugh when he got this cooperation agreement.
When Warner Bros. saw that the box office of "The Clown" could reach about 10 times the box office estimate, I wonder if I hate being blind?
Oh, by the way, they offer a larger price for the follow-up peripheral derivatives.
If you want them to give up 30% of the profit share, you must give them 30 million US dollars.
This shows that Warner Bros. still has a very good estimate of the benefits of peripheral derivatives.
Shen Huan doesn't know the specific benefits of "Clown", but it is definitely higher than 100 million.
Therefore, Shen Huan agreed to pay a total of 50 million US dollars in cash.
This money will also be divided into three payments, the first time to sign the contract is 10 million, after the filming is finished, 20 million, and the final payment of 20 million US dollars is paid before the official release.
Has to say that this installment payment by the Americans has really done its best.
Basically, they don't have a one-time payment. If anyone pays 50 million dollars at a time, Warner Brothers might be scared.
It happened that the four brands that Shen Huan recently advertised gave Shen Huan 20 million dollars, so he changed hands as a porter and directly gave the money to Todd Phillips and Warner Brothers.
The taxation of the United States is calculated according to income. However, Shen Huan changed his hands and spent it again, which would naturally reduce the amount of tax. This is also a reasonable tax avoidance.
……
Todd Phillips is also a ruthless man.
For "The Clown", he was out.
Not only found a layman like Shen Huan, but also gave up so many rights.
So he must make this movie well.
To achieve this goal, Todd Phillips, after obtaining Shen Huan's consent, showed himself and Shen Huan's group photo on his social account within two days.
"My script" The Clown "ushered in the best investor! A movie with a total investment of more than $ 100 million represents Mr. Shen Huan ’s trust in the crew and me! I believe that he will not fail Mr. Shen Huan. Trust! Please look forward to our work! "
He did this purely for advertising.
Jequin Phoenix has seen this script long ago and thinks it's not bad. He also likes to interpret such complicated characters.
So as long as Warner Brothers can agree, then he will promise to perform.
In fact, after receiving the investment and the agreement with Warner Bros., Jacques Phoenix signed the contract.
Jequin Phoenix is ​​not paying too much, just $ 4.5 million.
Previous Marvel's Doctor of Wonder wanted him to appear in the film, with a pay of up to 20 million US dollars, but must bundle at least 5 related movies, Jacques Phoenix directly refused.
This guy is really a character actor, just like his brother.
But a movie is not enough for the actor, even if the heroine has been decided, but many supporting roles need acting skills to bring out the sad and change of the clown's fate, in order to support the skeleton of the whole movie.
Therefore, Todd Phillips borrowed Shen Huan's hot name, and pointed out the investment of 100 million US dollars, is to attract more well-known actors to join.
As a result, Shen Huan did not expect that Nicholson called the first one, and said to Shen Huan, if he agreed to play for the Lakers for another season, then he would join the crew for free, any role.
Father, this is true love!
Shen Huan was slightly moved, but still rejected him.
There is no way to coordinate this. The movie is a movie. My decision is to make a decision. Photos of Shen Huan and Todd Phillips in the villa were posted on Weibo and their own meager accounts.
The picture posted by Todd Phillips is a photo of Shen Huan wearing a suit and holding a contract to take pictures with him.
And Wang really has a more life-like atmosphere, and at a glance, he knew that the two were filming during the negotiation.
A group of netizens who have eaten melons have been talking about it for a long time, and seeing this photo is even more intolerable.
"Wow, it seems that I really came in and out of Shen Huan's house at random! Is our goddess just like that?"
"Wang Mei. Female, what did they say when negotiating? Quickly reveal it!"
"Sister Xiaofeng is not crazy? Why did he want to invest in such a movie? When you look at the name, you know what type it is, and there is no way to release it in our country!"
"That's right! Sister Xiaofeng, it's not easy for you to make money. Why did you all contribute to the American people?"
"What do you do so much? Is it true that people can solve Fermat's theorem? Is he fooled?"
"Even if Shen Huan loses such a sum, what does it count for him? People get $ 30 million from Adidas every year! They will be back in a few years!"
"......"
