Chapter 402 Divide Money
"There are also benefits for the director team, which are equivalent to the screenwriter department, and they will also receive a reward of 102.5 million."

The box office dividend reward of the director team corresponds to the screenwriter department, but this reward is not just for the director, but for the core members of the entire group.

Screenwriters, actors and directors are the three core elements of film and television dramas. In order to motivate these three core departments, Yucheng Film and Television offers relatively high rewards.

"In addition, there are rewards for the post-production department and various coordination departments. This reward is not high, only one percent, which can be regarded as a performance reward."

"To sum up, the total box office rewards for the first film of Taoist Priest totaled 425.6 million."

Xie Di looked up at Chen Yuan and Qin Fen on the screen. This was the box office reward details for Yucheng Film and Television's first online movie. The rest was pure profit.

"This is almost as much as the box office revenue of a web movie."

Qin Fen knew that the rewards and benefits formulated by Yucheng Film and Television were very good, but when he heard the specific reward amount, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.

A web movie actually gave out a reward of more than four million, which is like directly rewarding a high-quality hit.

"The higher the reward, the higher the income. High rewards also mean higher income for us, which is a good thing. I would like to see every drama reward like this so that we can all make money together." Chen Yuan said with a smile.

"That's true." Qin Fen chuckled.

Of course he understood this truth, but he just couldn't help but sigh.

"Return to zero, return to zero, return to zero..."

As he spoke, he took out his computer, clicked several buttons continuously, and finally got a number.

"After deducting these rewards, we still have 2137.14 million left, which is 2137 million after rounding off. After deducting the 1537 million returned to the Yucheng Village Head Office, we are left with million."

As he spoke, Qin Fen pointed the computer at the screen.

The three of them looked at the number and all had bright smiles on their faces.

More than ten million!

In fact, strictly speaking, it is more than 20 million. After all, the borrowed 6 million also belongs to Yucheng Film and Television. Even if various rewards and costs are put aside, a drama can make a net profit of more than 20 million. This return on investment is amazing.

"Now I understand why so many people want to break into this industry. One drama can bring in nearly a hundred times the return, and financial freedom can be achieved in one step." Xie Di was quite emotional.

A total investment of more than 200,000 yuan in exchange for a profit of more than 20 million yuan. If you are a single person, it would be financial freedom. Who wouldn't want to try this opportunity?
Even though he only invested 200,000 yuan and the proportion of shares he held was not high, he could still make 2 million yuan from one drama, which was unthinkable before.

Coupled with the subsequent works shot, earning tens of millions a year is not a dream.

Thinking about it now, it does feel a bit dreamy.

"Boss Chen, thank you for taking me aboard."

Xie Di knew very well that the reason he could achieve such results was not because of how strong he was, but because Chen Yuan gave him the opportunity to play together, otherwise he would still be just Xie who went fishing.

The gratitude in my heart is beyond words.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's quickly calculate how much we can get." Chen Yuan waved his hands repeatedly. These things were not worth mentioning. The real business was to settle the accounts and divide the money.

"I've calculated it. Based on the 1537 million, I can get 153.7 million, Fatty can get 384.25 million, Yucheng Village can get 307.4 million, and the rest will all belong to Boss Chen." Xie Di said with an excited smile.

Chen Yuan nodded slightly.

It was about the same as he estimated.

According to his previous estimates, he could get about 12 million in total, but this also included borrowed money and rewards from various departments.

So the dividends he finally got, plus the share that belonged to the screenwriter, was about eight million.

"How much money is left in Yucheng Film and Television's account?"

Chen Yuan did not directly talk about dividing the money. Instead, he lit a cigarette and thought for a while, then asked about the current financial situation of Yucheng Film and Television.

"There's not much money left in the account. If we deduct this month's shooting budget and other expenses like employee salaries, the money is basically gone." Xie Di's expression became serious.

He is in charge of the finances of Yucheng Film and Television, and also shoulders all the personnel and finance matters. Whether it is the shooting budget or the employee's salary and performance, he is in charge.

So I have a clear understanding of the financial situation.

"Does that mean there will be no funds circulating next month?" Chen Yuan asked.

"It's okay at the beginning of the month. Most of the crews are still in the process of planning and will probably start filming near the end of the month. Therefore, the crews won't be able to apply for much funding at the beginning of next month, but it can only last until the middle of the month at most." Xie Di said.

"There are many online movies released in April and May, but there is only the first part of Campus Storm in March, and Desert Knight in early April, so we have to wait for the next round of box office settlement."

Qin Fen added.

Qin Fen is in charge of the crew's filming, post-production, sample submission, online queuing, box office and other matters. He knows best when the settlement will be made.

"In other words, Yucheng Film and Television still needs one month of financial support." Chen Yuan understood and had a rough budget in mind.

"Ah."

Qin Fen nodded and said with a bright smile: "When the next round of settlement begins, even if the platform does not change the settlement method, Yucheng Film and Television will be able to have monthly settlements and receive dividends every month."

Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, which is winning by quantity.

Yucheng Film and Television is shooting like crazy. At the current pace, at least ten films are produced every month. There is enough output every month. Even if the production is extremely slow, at least ten films can be produced every month.

The prerequisite is to wait until the batch that goes online in April starts settlement.

"Is four million enough for a month?" Chen Yuan plans to reserve four million for Yucheng Film and Television's operation.

"It won't take four million. Two or three million will be enough." Xie Di shook his head slightly.

"It's okay. There's no need to worry as long as there's food in the account. Reserve more funds so that you can carry out your work better." Chen Yuan waved his hand and smiled.

The size of Yucheng Film and Television's team all depends on Xie Di and his team's ability to recruit talent and dare to speak up when they have food in hand.

"Then keep four million."

Since Chen Yuan arranged it this way, Xie Di didn't say anything more.

"As for the remaining money."

After Chen Yuan put out his cigarette, he continued, "Let me explain first. The Three Sheep need money, so after each box office settlement, I want to share the profits. What do you think?"

"I have no problem. As long as Yucheng Film and Television has enough development funds in its account, the rest of the money can be divided freely." Xie Di chuckled.

"I agree too." Qin Fen smiled brightly.

Who doesn’t like to share money?

As long as the money from this drama is shared, not only can the initial investment be recovered, but you can even make a lot of money. No matter how you play with it later, it will be pure profit.

The most important thing is that many people are watching the first piece of pie.

“Becoming a millionaire overnight is a dream just thinking about it. If I throw one million in front of the girl at my house, she will definitely be stunned.” Xie Di couldn’t stop smiling.

When I first invested in the business, I tightened my belt and scraped together $200,000. My family member was more or less dissatisfied with it. What was his expression when he saw me getting a huge sum of one million?

"The one-year deadline set by my grandfather has been exceeded. I also want to see who is willing to say no to me." Qin Fen hummed softly.

He likes taking pictures, but after graduation he has to face the reality of life. After all, they are adults and have to be responsible for their own lives.

Finally, with the help of Chen Yuan, Mr. Qin gave Qin Fen a year to develop freely.

It's not even a year yet, and the first online movie alone can earn more than 6 million yuan in box office revenue, and those who received it have all received nearly 4 million yuan. Which job can earn so much in just a few months? And this is just the beginning. Even if it ends now, after all the subsequent box office revenue is settled, it won't be a big deal to exit with tens of millions of yuan.

Be proud of me!
"For Yucheng Village, just deduct the reserved amount and transfer the rest to the village committee account. As for the other dividends, pay them out as soon as possible."

Chen Yuan laughed.

He did not have the desire to prove himself like Xie Di and Qin Fen. He just arranged other dividend matters. After all, it was money, and who wouldn't want to get it as soon as possible.

And then it's your own.

The screenwriter received a dividend of one million, and the dividend from his shareholding ratio was almost seven million. After deducting the reserved 1.8 million, the final total was only over six million.

Adding the six million returned by Yucheng Film and Television, there are only more than twelve million left to support the three sheep.

All money will be directly transferred to the Three Sheep account.

just.

"It's a little different from what was expected." Chen Yuan smiled bitterly.

However, the gap is not big, mainly due to the reserved funds and dividends from village enterprises. Originally, Chen Yuan had not thought of reserving so much, but Yucheng Film and Television is in the full-speed expansion stage, and working capital cannot be saved.

As for the dividends distributed to village enterprises, Chen Wenbin and I have discussed this matter. We had originally agreed that profits would not be distributed based on the monthly and quarterly report inquiries, and dividends would be distributed at the end of each year.

Including this, it is not much different from the estimated 16 million.

But Chen Yuan thought about it and felt that the points should be divided. After all, the village committee has money in its account, which provides motivation for cooperation between the village and the enterprise.

After all, the development of a tea beverage brand is a very money-burning project. Even Chen Dong dare not promise loan support, and he tries not to involve other high-risk projects.

"Clap."

After ending the group video call, Chen Yuan picked up the cigarette box, lit a cigarette, and then called Liu Na.

"Sister Na, the box office revenue from Yucheng Film and Television has been settled. The amount I can use is slightly less than expected. Including the repayment funds, the total is only over 12 million. It will be transferred to the Three Sheep account later."

After the call was connected, Chen Yuan got straight to the point.

"What's next?"

Liu Na responded without getting hung up on the specific amount, but asked about the follow-up.

"The next box office share settlement should be at the end of June, and the payment should be received in early July, but the amount will not be large." Chen Yuan recalled the box office of Campus Storm, and then returned.

There is definitely no comparison between Campus Storm and Taoist Priest, although it has now passed the five million mark, the final box office share should not exceed eight million.

According to the reserved working capital and share ratio, Chen Yuan may only be able to mobilize about two million.

"However, starting from April, the number of online movies has gradually increased, and there are other big hits. It is estimated that starting from July, it can support at least 10 million per month."

Chen Yuan changed the subject slightly and added.

"Okay, leave the publicity and promotion to us." Liu Na responded.

No complaints about money.

She knew that Chen Yuan had done his best and was supporting the promotion and development of the Three Sheep Tea brand with his utmost strength. The rest was left to her, who would maximize the value of the limited funds.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Chen Yuan felt somewhat apologetic.

He knew that this amount of money was definitely not enough. Not to mention marketing and promotion, even publicity and distribution would be difficult, which would be a bit difficult for Liu Na. All he could do was to try to make as much money as possible.

"Don't forget that I am also a shareholder." Liu Na said with a smile.

There is no such thing as hard work when making money for yourself. What's more, her shares have no capital cost at all. The promotion and development of the Three Sheep Tea brand is all silently supported by Chen Yuan.

"Haha, let's work hard together and look forward to the day of celebration." Chen Yuan also laughed.

The Three Sheep tea brand will officially start its promotion and development mode.

Jingle Bell.

Chen Yuan had just finished talking to Liu Na and before he could put his phone back, it rang again.

"Uncle Bin."

It’s Chen Wenbin calling.

"Did you know that the village committee account just received more than two million yuan?" Chen Wenbin asked with a smile.

"Yes, it's the dividend from Yucheng Film and Television. The box office share of the first part of Taoist has just been settled and received." Chen Yuan responded with a smile. He didn't expect Xie Di and the others to be so fast. The money was directly deposited into the account within a few minutes.

"More than two million for a drama, this is not just drinking soup, this is eating meat." Chen Wenbin laughed out loud, and it can be heard that he was very happy.

It's indeed something to be happy about.

He is now very concerned about Yucheng Film and Television, not only the shooting progress, but also the number of works online and the viewing effect, both production and sales.

According to the current trend, the annual dividends will be at least tens of millions.

This project alone can bring about earth-shaking changes to Yucheng Village.

"The total box office of Taoist Priest was over 25 million. To be precise, Yucheng Village should have received about 5 million. However, Yucheng Film and Television borrowed 6 million yuan from the village enterprise for its early development, plus various incentives and 4 million yuan in working capital, so in the end, it only received more than 2 million yuan."

Chen Yuan gave Chen Wenbin a brief account.

After all, based on a 20% stake, there is a huge gap between the actual amount received and the estimated amount.

"I understand this, and I can check Yucheng Film and Television's accounts at any time." Chen Wenbin said with a smile.

Whether it is Yucheng Film and Television, Three Sheep Tea, or the projects in the village, there are detailed financial statements every month that can be checked by all parties.

The accounts are clear and transparent.

"But then again, didn't we agree before that Yucheng Village would not share profits for the time being and would invest all of it into the development of the tea beverage brand? How come the money was directly transferred to the village committee account?"

Chen Wenbin changed the subject.

"That's it, Uncle Bin."

Chen Yuan explained his ideas, including the village committee report, the real money in the account, which could bring strong motivation to the villagers, as well as the risks of the three sheep.

The tea beverage brand is a hole, and the early publicity and promotion is a process of burning money. Even if Chen Yuan has the memory of two lives, he dare not say that he will succeed.

It was a high-risk project, and he didn't want to take Yucheng Village with him.

“If that’s what you mean, then as we said before, take the three sheep out of the village-enterprise cooperation project, just like the fish pond.”

Chen Wenbin didn't waste any time. Since Chen Yuan did this, the tea brand would be separated from the village enterprise. No matter what the final profit or loss was, it would have nothing to do with Yucheng Village. The 20% of shares would be reallocated to Chen Yuan.

"Uncle Bin, you..."

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly, but he couldn't win over Chen Wenbin in the end. He had to transfer the dividends of Yucheng Film and Television to the Three Sheep account according to the previous agreement.

This amount is not much different from the initial estimate.
