The Chinese-language film market has become increasingly prosperous in the past two years. A special effects blockbuster produced by Jiang Heng has grossed over 4 billion yuan in the mainland market and over 3 billion US dollars at the global box office, which has really made many people envious.

Even Internet giants like Penguin and Ali want to get a piece of the pie.

Penguin Films and Ali Films were born in such a market environment.

However, they have capital but lack professional talents. They have always wanted to work with a top-notch director like Jiang Heng, but unfortunately they never had the chance.

Now, taking advantage of the opportunity of the movie "Dear", Ma Yun expressed her desire to visit the crew of "The Return of the Great Sage".

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "Okay, but I have a rule here. If you want to visit the set, you have to play a role!"

Ma Yun said: "No problem, with my temperament, I can definitely play the role of Bodhi Patriarch!"

Jiang Heng said: "There is no Bodhi Patriarch in this film!"

"The Jade Emperor is also possible!"

“There is no Jade Emperor either!”

“So what can I play?”

"Troll monster!"

"Depend on!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Heng continued filming.

Before Ma Yun arrived, he saw Ning Hao.

The box office of "Don't Panic, My King" directed by him currently exceeds 22 billion yuan, and the growth is weak, so it is estimated that it will stop here.

"Why are you free to come here? Do you want to have a celebratory drink?"

"No, I just want to say thank you on behalf of Huang Bo!"

"Why doesn't he come by himself?"

"That's not very kind!"

During this period, many of Ning Hao's works were invested by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures.

But Ning Hao did not want to be bound by constraints and did not sign a contract with iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video.

Huang Bo did not sign with iQiyi, Youku or Tencent Video, but instead opened a studio and became his own boss.

But he was made famous by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video, and although he knew that the company was considering signing him, he took the initiative to set up his own studio.

Of course, there was nothing wrong with doing this, and Jiang Heng didn't find it strange, but Huang Bo himself felt embarrassed.

"What's the big deal? A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. In this circle, who doesn't want to be a boss if he has the ability?
Take the female artists under the company for example, most of them will open their own studios and become bosses in the future!"

Ning Hao smiled. This is indeed the situation in the current Chinese-language film market, with a large number of personal studios opened.

iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video are the only ones that still have so many first-line celebrity artists.

However, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures have unique blockbuster resources in the entire Chinese entertainment industry. Actresses like Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Zhao Liying and Liu Shisi have been staying in the company just for the opportunity to play the leading role in a blockbuster.

Of course, there are also many opportunities to appear in ordinary film and television dramas in the company.

But Huang Bo's situation is different. He should be considered a comedian, and Jiang Heng's big movie resources have nothing to do with him, so it's not worth it for him to stay here.

Everyone understands this truth, and Ning Hao doesn't think there is anything wrong with what Huang Bo and Xu Zheng did. Everyone has their own aspirations!
"But if it weren't for Director Jiang, the film would have been just that. But with your recommendation, the box office could have increased by at least 200 million, and it might even win more awards!"

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "That's because they acted well. It's a good movie, and more people should know about it, right?"

After chatting about Huang Bo for a while, Jiang Heng said, "The box office of 'Don't Spare Me, Great Lord' is basically just so-so, more than 2.2 billion, which is a good result. I'll ask Du Huan to prepare a celebration banquet this weekend. I'll be busy again soon!"

Ning Hao naturally had no objection, because everyone in the industry knew that iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures would give out "big red envelopes" at their celebration banquets. "Don't Panic, Great King" is a special effects and comedy film based on a domestic workplace story. It doesn't have too many fighting scenes or big stars, so the overseas box office is almost zero.

The main source of revenue for the film is box office revenue from the mainland film market.

Based on the current figure of 2.2 billion, the share of revenue attributable to the producer iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures is more than 700 million.

Excluding the 200 million yuan cost for production and publicity, that’s a profit of more than 500 million yuan!
Jiang Heng's treatment for Ning Hao was director's fee plus box office share, with the share ratio being 12% of the net box office revenue, which is about million.

Adding the 10 million yuan in director's fees, Ning Hao earned 70 million yuan just from the movie "Don't Panic, Your Majesty".

It’s a little inferior to the top first-tier stars, but among the many domestic directors, he is considered quite successful.

Ning Hao was very happy when he thought about the share of the box office and asked how long it would take for the money to be credited to his account.

Jiang Heng said: "Box office revenue has a payment period, why not three months? What, are you short of money?"

Ning Hao chuckled, "I just want to move to a bigger house!"

Jiang Heng smiled, "How about I pick one of my mansions and give it to you as collateral?"

"Really? Then I'll pick one with a total price of over 100 million!"

Jiang Heng said: "No problem, I'll refund you if you make more and make you more if you make less. If you don't have money, just make a few more films for me!"

Ning Hao waved his hand and said, "Forget it, forget it. I have to worry about everything for the entire crew. This job is too tiring. I need to take a good rest for two years!"

He immediately glanced at Jiang Heng and wondered, "How did you manage to survive all these years, shooting one movie after another? You're really a warrior!"

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "You should call me God of War!"

Making a movie is indeed very tiring, especially a large-scale production with a crew of several thousand people. It is so tiring to coordinate them.

Just like what a popular video on Tik Tok said later, commanding a large army in battle is very tiring and really takes a lot of effort!
Jiang Heng only needs a "super microscopic computer" to easily dispatch a crew of thousands of people for high-intensity filming without any hesitation.

If it was just rebirth, I would have been exhausted long ago.

Seeing Ning Hao's frightened expression, Jiang Heng smiled and said, "You are so young, and you become lazy and lazy after achieving a little success. How can you achieve great things?"

Ning Hao said: "This is a normal filming rhythm for a director, okay? Who can compare with you?"

Jiang Heng sighed, "I was hoping that if you work hard, I'd buy a private jet next year!"

Ning Hao's face twitched when he heard this, and he thought to himself that this was actually human language.

Jiang Heng laughed even more happily. Although Ning Hao got a lot of share, without Ning Hao, the creativity would be wasted.

Now it can bring more than 400 million, nearly 500 million in revenue to the company, which is a huge amount. It would be good to give some benefits to the employees!

A few days later, at the weekend, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video held a grand celebration party for the crew of "Don't Panic, Your Majesty" and distributed big red envelopes on the spot.

On behalf of the company, Jiang Heng handed a check template for 60 million to Ning Hao in the presence of the media.

The latter was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling and raised it high up and shook it.

Everyone present was envious and talked about it.

"Sixty million, Director Jiang is really generous!"

"The box office is high, 2.2 billion!"

"If you ask me, Director Ning Hao is really good and Director Jiang Heng is really generous!"

"I wish I had Ning Hao's ability!" (End of this chapter)
