Chapter 610: On gambling

Zhou Sheng covered the microphone, as if someone was coming around. After a few words of greeting, he took two steps and changed to a quieter corner before whispering: "Mr. Luo's news has been confirmed and reported. "A Century of Filmmakers" selection activity."
He took a deep breath:
"It is said that he signed a gambling agreement with Borgia and Huandao Company, taking the final box office as a bet."
Zhou Sheng didn't know too much news. Although he could find out some internal news about Century Galaxy, he couldn't get the inside information of large foreign investment companies.
He still inquired about this news from inside the company, saying that Jiang Se received a call from Cesare and revealed it to her, and then Xia Chaoqun knew it, and it spread within a small area of ​​the company.
"If the final global box office reaches 1.5 billion U.S. dollars, he can get the remuneration he originally wrote after signing the contract with investors. If the final global box office is less than 1.5 billion, he will not get any remuneration, and The director of the trilogy signed earlier was not paid for a single point." Zhou Sheng did not care how Tao Cen felt when he heard these words, and then said: "At the same time, he has to go with Borgia and around the island. Signing the contract requires at least a zero-reward operation for the investor and two more movies for free."
In other words, if the total global box office ultimately does not get 1.5 billion U.S. dollars, Cesare will have to work for investors for at least five years for free, and not take a cent.
"If the global gross box office exceeds 1.5 billion in the end, he will get what he deserves. If it exceeds 2 billion, the split will be different."
This is a very bold and risky bet!
As a first-class celebrity director, Cesare's compensation for directing films can be said to be days.
Although Tao Cen chose to lower the pay for the role in order to take over and knock on her own international door, her behavior at the time was completely different from Cesare's current "gambling".
After her performance, she successfully opened up the situation in Europe and the United States. In recent years, she has also talked about some foreign investment and cooperation, which can be regarded as familiar to Europeans and Americans.
But Cesare itself is already very famous, even if it is not enough to compare, it is more than enough.
His current fame is enough for him to sit firmly on the position of a first-class director. Every year, many consortia and investors take money to ask him to take charge of the camera. There is no need for him to sign this crazy gambling agreement.
Not to mention that he won the bet, if the global box office reaches more than 1.5 billion, he has fully proved his ability and has the qualifications to be on par with the famous leaders.
But once the gambling loses, for Cesare, the reputation accumulated in the first half of his life can be regarded as wasted.
He will become the laughing stock of Hollywood and even Europe and America, and his career can come to an end in advance.
If his current value is in the tens of millions of dollars, his price may drop more than ten times after the box office loss.
The most troublesome thing is that after going through this gambling, good resources in the future may not fall into his hands first, and he will fall from the position of the picker to the position of the selected person.
These circumstances, Cesare has been in this business for many years, should be more clear than Tao Cen.
If it weren’t for Tao Cen who knew that Zhou Sheng was involved in such a thing, he would never dare to deceive himself. Tao Cen would almost doubt that Zhou Sheng had already turned to Jiang Se’s party when he said these things to him. It's a battle.
"He really signed a gambling contract?"
She still couldn't believe it, Zhou Sheng said with certainty:
"Yes. The news came from Xia Chaoqun. It is said that Cesare personally called Jiang Se and asked her to prepare in advance."
Clothes, jewelry, makeup, and the best state when walking on the red carpet, all need Jiang Se to prepare in advance.
The news was passed to the company’s chairman Luo Yin through Xia Chaoqun. Luo Yin kept the news very tight. Until recently, the "Hundred Years of Filmmakers" event kicked off. Members of the "Hundred Years of Film Art History" have received the event. The invitation letter was about going to the Sacred Grand Theater for fifteen days of'watching' and voting. The news leaked a little bit of news. Perhaps Zhou Sheng has been kept in the dark until now.
The major shareholders of the company should have a good idea about this matter. Zhou Sheng used to be Tao Cen's confidant in the company, but now he has received the news. This in itself is a sign of Tao Cen's loss.
That's why he was so anxious after he learned the news. He was anxious to call Tao Cen to inform him, and he refused to tell Song Yi the reason.
Carolus’ shampoo endorsements are indeed very important~EbookFREE.me~ But for Tao Cen, endorsements are just an icing on the cake for her. She can get endorsements and be famous for China. It depends on movies, or Works talking.
If she loses her advantage in the movie, it is unknown whether these endorsements will favor her in the future.
After hearing Zhou Sheng's definite answer, Tao Cen could not speak for a long time.
If you didn’t know that Cesare and Jiangse were just friends, if you didn’t know that Jiangse had a fiance, if she had not dealt with Cesare a long time ago, and understood that Cesare itself was also an ambitious one, and it was impossible for a woman. And for those who lose their minds, Tao Cen almost doubts whether Cesare's actions like this are self-destructing his future and paving the way for Jiang Se.
She was still fortunate to use her filming skills to loosen the contract between Jiang Se and Carolus, and to find a way for her to compete, Jiang Se was already preparing a red carpet show for the "100 Years Filmmaker" Clothes and jewelry.
In the first half of her life, the glory and fame that made her complacent, at this time, under her embarrassing situation, could not bring her the slightest help.
At this time, in the domestic imperial capital, after dinner in the evening, Shu Peien accompanied his wife for a short walk, and it was already past eight o'clock when he returned home.
My wife likes to watch a family ethics drama broadcast by Huaxia Movie Channel. She has been chasing for more than two months, holding a knitted sweater while staring at the TV screen.
Shu Payen is not very interested in this kind of TV. He is sitting on the sofa with his wife, reading the news on the tablet computer, watching the upcoming movies in the last few months of this year, and wants to pick out a bunch of new movies that interest him. of.
There are not many movies worth letting him go to the cinema in October. Huaxia introduced several foreign commercial movies, and he made notes one by one.
