Li Mu very simply agreed to the approximate budget of Teng Huatao three million, and allowed 30% of the overrun in the actual shooting, which made Teng Huatao feel relieved, three million investment, the highest budget of 3.9 million It was totally sufficient for him to make this movie.

In fact, when Giddens Ko filmed "You Are the Apple of My Eye", a total of NT 50 million was prepared. The conversion to RMB is about 10 million. That is 10 million in 2011. If it is really purchasing power, it is 3 million now. The gap is not large, and the cost does not include the actor's remuneration. If the actor's remuneration is also included, then the total investment of five million is definitely there, so the production cost is already very sufficient.

Confirmed the production cost. Li Mu asked Teng Huatao what his director ’s salary is. He thought for a long time and asked for one hundred thousand.

Compared to the current reputation of Teng Huatao, 100,000 yuan is not high or low. The director fee of 500,000 yuan for Li Mu to Ning Hao is sky high, and the 10% net profit sharing is even more scary, nothing else. The first is rich and capricious, the second is to simply appreciate Ning Hao, as for Teng Huatao, he generally has no deep feelings about this director, but if he can really enter the state of shooting commercial love movies earlier, he may be able to shoot in the future. There are several high-grossing movies, so Li Mu also has the intention to sign him to Muye Science and Technology.

You need to sign as soon as possible. If you really wait for him to shoot "You Are the Apple of My Eye", I am afraid his price will increase a lot, so Li Mu immediately said to Teng Huatao: "So, if you are interested in Muye Pictures, just follow Let ’s sign a long contract. Starting from this film, the director ’s fee for the first film is 200,000, and each film will increase by 50% on the basis of the previous one, and I promise to cast a film for you every year. As for your TV series, we will not intervene. You can take the film independently. How do you watch? "

Li Mu doubled the director ’s fee of Teng Huatao all of a sudden, and immediately shocked Teng Huatao. The most important reason why he was overwhelmed was not that the director ’s fee doubled, but Li Mu was willing to vote every year He is a movie.

Generally, directors who are mainly based on TV series must weaken their influence in the movie industry. Directors with partial TV series like Teng Huatao are very good if they have the opportunity to make a big movie in two or three years. Finding your own may not be a good book, or a big production, but the ultimate dream of every director is to shoot a big movie, because this is the highest level in the field of film and television entertainment. As a director, who does n’t want much Some opportunities to make movies? Moreover, the slightly more famous directors will almost never take the TV series, even if they are from the TV series, and the directors who have made achievements in the field of film directors will never return to the TV series. The reason is very simple, I ca n’t watch it. .

Zhang Yimou has never been filmed in a TV series. Feng Xiaogang although was born in a TV series, but he has n’t touched a TV series since 1997, and all of them have taken root on the big screen, because every director regards the film as the ultimate pursuit.

The same is true for Teng Huatao. He also hopes to have more opportunities to make movies and hope to become a first-line film director, but the opportunities are hard to find. Now Muye Pictures throws an olive branch to himself, facing the strong attraction of a movie every year Li, he agreed almost without hesitation and asked Li Mu: "Chief Li, how many years can we sign?"

Teng Huatao ca n’t wait to sign as long as possible, but he also understands that Li Mu has an increment factor of 1.5 times for his director ’s fee. If he signs too long, the late director ’s fee is sky-high, so Li Mu should not follow Sign yourself for too long.

Li Mu has a mental calculation in mind, with a factor of 1.5 times, Teng Huatao ’s first film director ’s fee is 200,000, the second is 300,000, the third is 450,000, the fourth is 675,000, and the fifth 1.0125 million, if you take into account inflation and the continuous improvement of his reputation, the overall increase is not high, or even a bit low, but this is also the benefit of signing a long contract. At least for Teng Huatao, this price is still very high Tempting.

So Li Mu said to him: "So, let's sign five years first, five years after five films, if everyone cooperates happily, we will set the standard again."

Teng Huatao immediately said: "OK! Chief Li, I signed it!"

Teng Huatao has heard about Li Mu. Ning Hao also introduced him to Li Mu ’s current property industry. Behind Muye Pictures is Muye Science and Technology as a strong backing and support. This is also a great opportunity for himself as a movie and TV series Director, he has a very, very sensitive sense of box office, ratings, and the number of people covered. If you sign Muye Pictures, it is equivalent to finding a strong potential user group for future movies. If Muye Science and Technology uses YY to help Muye Pictures movies in the future Promotion, that can be said to be unfavorable.

Speaking of YY, Teng Huatao is also very amazed by this artifact. Now he is one of YY's most loyal users and a loyal YY member, because he has built several industry working groups, exchange consulting, talent recruitment, The preparation and establishment of the group can be solved in the group. It is simply the best choice to improve work efficiency and promote resource integration. Therefore, he also respects YY itself. Signing Muye Pictures also brings a strong belonging to his heart. Feeling and platform pride.

After chatting with Teng Huatao about a long appointment, Li Mu is also in a good mood. He said to Teng Huatao: "My goal of this movie is to make a Chinese campus love film, it will become a youth campus film. The benchmarks and lighthouses will not be able to catch up with all the same types of movie in the future, so you must take a lot of effort to shoot the purest, most natural, and most resonating youth love, and do n’t fall into the stereotype. "

Teng Huatao nodded understandingly and said seriously: "Chief Li rest assured, I understand."

Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "You do n’t have to worry about the music of this movie. Simple Project and Du Wei will sing a theme song for this movie."

Teng Huatao asked happily: "They will all contribute to this movie?"

Li Mu said definitely: "Yes."

Teng Huatao naturally knows the simple plan and the fame of Du Wei. If nothing else, it can be seen from the fiery/popular degree of short film of "Old Boy". The soundtrack of "Old Boy" is still very fiery/popular , Is also a great promotion for the movie itself.

The idea of ​​Li Mu's is to give a simple plan to the song "You Are the Apple of My Eye", sung by Zhang Kexuan as the first theme song of the whole movie, because there is no more suitable song as the theme of this movie. Song.

In addition, Li Mu also wanted to bring in "First Day" for Du Wei, because the lyrics of that song are also very beautiful and simple. The lyrics are not only in line with the atmosphere of this movie, but also in line with the filming in the summer. The keynote, "You Are the Apple of My Eye" was originally a love story that happened in summer. Summer rain, summer cicadas, ignorant men and women in summer, and the simple and beautiful love in summer, perfectly fit the theme!

As for the other episodes, it ’s easy to say, either find two more suitable songs for Zhang Kexuan or Du Wei, or find a few songs from the ready-made songs directly, and get a royalty fee.

The Teng Huatao five-year five-film contract was signed the day after the meeting, and then began to enter the stage of planning. Li Mu did not have much requirements, but just reminded him to find the most beautiful middle school and university for shooting At the venue, Li Mu personally prefers Lulu Island in southeast Fujian, where the summer is beautiful, and the hypocrisy is even romantic in the air, especially in several schools, which are notoriously beautiful all over the country.

......

After Li Mu settled all the things about "You Are the Apple of My Eye", Du Wei was finally willing to return from Hong Kong.

This time Du Wei stayed in Hong Kong for more than one week. During this more than one week, Zhang Guorong and Mo Wenwei took her to meet many influential people in the entertainment and music circles in Hong Kong, which is considered to be the future of Du Wei in Hong Kong. The development has laid a solid foundation. It is said that she also sang a few times in the recording studios of several music producers, which shocked a large number of people.

It ’s almost the same for everyone who can meet, and Zhang Guorong is willing to let her come back. These days, Zhang Guorong and Mo Wenwei have a strong love for Du Wei, so that when Mo Wenwei sent Du Wei back to Beijing At the airport, she also cried with her because of her reluctance.

On the evening of her return, Du Fei called Li Mu. The sisters invited Li Mu to have a meal together. For Du Fei, her sister could go to today, almost all rely on Li Mu's for help, so for Li Mu I'm very grateful, and Du Wei is even more needless to say, almost treat Li Mu as his parents, listening to my parents is not as clever and obedient as listening to Li Mu's.

Li Mu listened to Du Wei at the dinner table talking about the people they met in Hong Kong these days and the things they encountered. I was also very happy for her and said to Du Wei: "I wrote two new songs for you, one Cantonese Song, a Mandarin song, you can see when there is time in these two days. Let ’s organize these two songs and try to record them quickly. "

Du Wei said dumbfounded: "Brother Li Brother Mu, are you writing a new song for me? Is there a Cantonese song? Did you also write it?"

Li Mu nodded: "You have to let you release your first album within this year, at least you have to prepare eight songs, and I also arranged a movie for you during the summer vacation. I told you before. Ever been a campus romance. "

Du Wei put on a face of shyness and admiration and said, "Brother Li Brother Mu, you are so good to me ... better than my sister to me ..."

The Du Fei on the side is not happy anymore and hummed: "Little thankless wretch, every day I said how good Li Li Brother Mu is to you, so many years I have forgotten how good you are?"

Du Wei smiled and said, "How come, sister, you are also very good to me, but it is different from Brother Li Brother Mu."
