Chapter 397 397. The Condor Heroes is Completed
Cai Yinong wanted to tell Nie Wei immediately, but when he called that night, he found that Nie Wei had turned off his phone.
After getting up early the next day, Cai Yinong called Nie Wei again, and this time the call was answered.
"Nie Wei, guess what the final ratings are?" As soon as the call was connected, Cai Yinong, who had been holding back all night, felt that he couldn't say it immediately because he wanted to whet Nie Wei's appetite.
"From Sister Cai's tone, it seems that my grades are very good." Nie Wei replied in a slow and unhurried tone, not at all as impatient as Cai Yinong imagined. This made Cai Yinong a little disappointed, why is this child not I know how to cooperate with myself.
However, this little emotion was quickly washed away by the result last night that made him excited all night. Since Nie Wei didn't fall for it, she just said it directly.
"The results are very good, and the results are definitely beyond your expectation. The highest ratings have exceeded 5! You heard it right, our TV series has reached a highest ratings of 5 at the end of the finale, right at the end of the last episode!"
Cai Yinong said that she was so excited. After all, before the last episode was aired, who would have thought that the highest ratings of this TV series could exceed 5. What she didn't even dare to think about finally came true. This unexpected thing The surprise made her mood excited.
Nie Wei also laughed happily on the other end of the phone. Breaking 5 exceeded Cai Yinong's expectation and also exceeded Nie Wei's estimate. This was indeed a little surprise for Nie Wei.
First of all, this score will naturally allow the TV series to be sold at a better price. Don’t underestimate the significance of breaking 5. Even if the final highest ratings are 4.99, there will be a significant gap in price compared with the 5 ratings. .
After all, the meanings are different, and the prices are naturally different.
As for what the TV series itself brings to Nie Wei other than financial benefits, Nie Wei doesn't care too much. This kind of TV series has not helped his popularity much, but for Lin Yifei and Shu Chang, as well as the two actors who appeared in the show For a kid, it was a huge help.
For example, Lin Yifei, her popularity has increased slightly since the broadcast of "Legend of Sword and Fairy". The most important thing is that the audience has seen a new side of this actor, and this is the most important thing for Lin Yifei currently. important.
In comparison, this TV series is actually more important to Shu Chang.
After all, the popularity of "Speed Scandal" really made Shu Chang popular during the New Year, but if this kind of popularity is to be maintained, it must rely on his works, and the popularity of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" came just in time. , Shu Chang's performance in this TV series did not disappoint her fans. Her interpretation of Lin Yueru, who dares to love and hate, can even be said to be the most lovable character in the TV series.
With the role of Lin Yueru, it not only consolidated her achievements in the movie, but also helped her career to take another step forward, and this step is also a particularly critical step. Now Shu Chang can be regarded as a first-line actor. , at least when the advertising company quoted the price, Shu Chang's endorsement value had jumped to seven figures, which is an obvious sign for a first-line actress.
In the past two days after the ratings came out, this girl kept telling Nie Wei about the good news. Today she accepted cosmetics from an international brand, and tomorrow she was approached by a domestic first-line clothing brand to endorse her, and the price was offered without mentioning it in words. How proud.
At this point, Lin Yifei is jealous of Shu Chang. Her current popularity is actually higher than that of Shu Chang. After all, her type is considered unique in the industry. But unfortunately, she has zero achievements in movies. This is also the reason why she has not been able to step into the front line.
At this moment, Lin Yifei is just like Nie Wei back then. She has accumulated a lot of popularity, but she is missing this last step. Nie Wei finally encountered the drama "New Police Story" and defeated the male and female protagonists with a villain role. God, and what Lin Yifei lacked was a good role that would allow her to step into the forefront. This is why the girl was so excited when she knew that Nie Wei was going to make a movie for her in which she would be the heroine.
This girl also knows very well that if the movie is successful, then she will also be successful.
Having said that, the popularity of this TV series has actually brought not only financial gains to the Tang people, but also their cast team has gradually begun to take shape because of this show.
Brother Hu and Yuan Hong were already known as the "Twin Stars of the Tang Dynasty" in the Tang Dynasty.
One played the role of Tang Yu Xiaobao in this TV series, and eventually transformed into a winged bird with her lover Anu, which moved countless viewers, while the other played the role of Liu Jinyuan, the scene in which Butterfly of Shangshu Mansion saved her husband by saving her body, which also touched many hearts. Follow the tears.
This is also the best thing about this TV series, that is, each character actually has his own independent side. If he is not a supporting role, he must serve the life of the protagonist. They also have their own stories. In this way, even if Yuan Hong and Hu Ge play They are the second and third male actors, but they are equally outstanding and are remembered by many audiences.
This drama has brought the two young men a lot of popularity. Now back at school, even some teachers will stop and say hello loudly when they meet them. Some teachers will even say a few words of encouragement. The students are envious. The look in his eyes made the two young men feel a little carried away. Of course, there was also a disadvantage, that is, their pockets had been emptied a lot recently. If you asked why, it was natural that they were treating each other.
Naturally, I wanted to invite my classmates. The two of them acted in a play and it was a great success. Why don't we celebrate it?
After you have invited your classmates, you should go back and invite the brothers in your dormitory separately. This must be distinguished from those in the class.
In addition to these, should we also invite the class teacher? After all, that is the teacher who taught us. Without his teaching, how could we act so well? We must invite him.
In addition, there are many other reasons. If there were no brothers around to help share the burden, the two of them would have gone bankrupt long ago. However, they lost more than half of the salary they earned from this drama.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that they didn't earn much in the first place.
In this TV series, the two of them only received 3,000 yuan per episode. This was fought for by Cai Yinong. Otherwise, Nie Wei's original price was only 2,000 yuan, which was the money these two rookies should get.
Compared with these two rookies, Shu Chang, the second female lead, can get 30,000 yuan per episode, which is ten times theirs. Cai Yinong still thinks it is a good deal. After all, if he had asked Shu Chang again after the release of "Speeding Scandal", the price would not have been enough even if it was doubled.
As the heroine, Lin Yifei gets even more, 50,000 yuan. As for the hero Nie Wei, let's not talk about how much he gets. Not only does he get six figures per episode, but he also gets a share of the profits after the TV series is released. This share is not included in his investment share, but is earned solely by virtue of his status as an actor.
But even so, Yuan Hong and Hu Ge are very satisfied with their income. What's more, after the TV series was broadcast, Cai Yinong also gave them a big red envelope. The red envelope was so big that it was enough for them to shoot another drama.
The two people who got so much money for the first time were so excited that they couldn't sleep all night. The next morning, they took the red envelopes to the seafood restaurant and had a good meal. They ordered all the expensive ingredients that they didn't dare to order at other times. Anyway, the two of them went back to the dormitory with their backs supported.
Of course, they are not the kind of people who only care about their own enjoyment. On the same day, Hu Ge took part of the film salary home to honor his parents, which made Hu Ge's mother cry. Hu Ge's father did not cry, but he also repeatedly lamented that his son had grown up.
Yuan Hong was a little troubled, after all, his family was not in Mingzhu, but he also remitted the money to his parents as soon as possible. When he called to inform them, he was almost the same as the elders in Hu Ge's family. They were all very moved. After all, the child can make money to repay his parents, which is simply the happiest thing in the eyes of parents.
After all, raising a son to prevent old age, Chinese fathers and daughters have been looking forward to the arrival of this day all their lives.
On the third day after the end of the Legend of Sword and Fairy, the Condor Heroes also followed suit. To be honest, since Lin Yifei and Yu Min had a quarrel, the surface has been much more harmonious these days, but the atmosphere on the set makes people feel very depressed.
It's the kind of feeling that no one gets angry but still makes people have to do things carefully, so when the day of the end came, many people seemed to have thrown away a heavy burden and breathed a sigh of relief.
Nie Wei and Lin Yifei attended the wrap-up banquet as usual, but the two of them were very low-key throughout the whole process. At most, they chatted with a few senior actors. Only when the wrap-up banquet was about to end, Nie Wei took Lin Yifei to say goodbye to Zhang Jizhong. This was also the only interaction between the two of them in the whole scene.
The rest of the people didn't care about their relationship. The TV series was over, and the most important thing was to rest after work. However, when Nie Wei returned to the hotel room that night, he welcomed an unexpected and not unexpected guest.
He was Cheng Kun.
Nie Wei really didn't expect that this guy would wait until the end of the TV series to come to him.
"Have you thought about it? How long is your contract? If you need legal support, I recommend you a law firm. I guarantee to do my best and you don't need to bear the cost." Nie Wei said as he welcomed Cheng Kun into the house.
"How do you know I agree?" Cheng Kun didn't deny Nie Wei's words, but he couldn't help asking back.
Nie Wei smiled and explained, "Your coming here means you agree, doesn't it?"
Cheng Kun was stunned, then nodded with a wry smile. Nie Wei's ability to see through people's hearts really shocked him.
"I still have one year left on my contract, but my termination fee is not much. In fact, I was ready to change the contract when I was filming Golden Powder, but then something happened and the company shelved it. Maybe they didn't expect that someone would hire me after that." Cheng Kun said at the end, laughing self-deprecatingly.
Nie Wei nodded in understanding. From the outside world's point of view, Cheng Kun's acting career did become much bleaker after that incident. In this era of talent, the bleak stars will naturally be replaced by newcomers soon, so that the company will be desperate to save him, unless he is of extraordinary value, but Cheng Kun was obviously not at that point at the time, and his position ten years later is similar to that of Chen Kun.
"You don't need to worry about the termination fee. Since we have poached you, the termination fee will naturally be borne by Huayi. The specific contract can be discussed in Beijing, but you must be prepared for the length of the contract. We will definitely not accept a short contract. After all, you know your current situation best. It will take a lot of resources and time for us to pull you out of the quagmire. If it is a short contract, it is not worth our efforts." Nie Wei reminded Cheng Kun in advance.
Cheng Kun had no meaning for this. In fact, this job-hopping was his last chance. It would be best if he could rejuvenate his acting career. Even if it didn't work, he would give up. Therefore, the length of the contract didn't matter to him. Acting anywhere was not the same as acting.
"It would be the best if you can accept it. I will arrange the best lawyer team for you." Nie Wei stood up with a smile and shook hands with Cheng Kun who also stood up. This was a verbal agreement, but if nothing unexpected happened, it would soon be presented in a written document.
As for the lawyer team, Nie Wei would naturally use the big lawyers in his own law firm. Helping celebrities to fight lawsuits has always been a good opportunity to increase the reputation of the law firm. Moreover, winning or losing in this kind of relationship is not important. The most important thing is that the exposure rate is very high. It is also good to take this opportunity to make a soft advertisement for your own law firm.
Cheng Kun didn't know Nie Wei's little thoughts, and it didn't matter if he knew. Anyway, it would be best if he didn't have to spend money. In the past two years, Chen Kun has been very shy because he couldn't get an important role.
The discussion was very fast. Cheng Kun left in less than ten minutes. After Cheng Kun left, Nie Wei immediately called Wang Zhonglei and asked him to prepare for poaching.
If Wang Zhonglei was asked to poach Wang Fei and Liu Dehua, he couldn't do it. But for Cheng Kun, who was already in a bad state, Wang Zhonglei didn't even consider the problem of failure. Moreover, Nie Wei had told him on the phone that Cheng Kun's termination fee was not high, which also made Wang Zhonglei put down the last burden. As long as he didn't pay much money, there would be no problem.
He nodded and agreed to Cheng Kun's matter very happily, but he had something more important to ask Nie Wei in his heart.
"Nie Wei, now that you have finished filming this TV series, do you have any new plans?"
"Yes."
"Tell me about it in detail." Wang Zhonglei asked with great anticipation.
"I wrote another movie script." Nie Wei replied with a smile, which made Wang Zhonglei on the other end of the phone laugh out loud instantly, and asked quickly: "What's the content?"
"It's hard to explain on the phone, let's talk about it when I return to Kyoto." Nie Wei didn't talk to Wang Zhonglei in detail, and planned to leave this suspense to the company for an interview when he returned to Kyoto.
But Nie Wei still underestimated Wang Zhonglei's attention to his new work. The next day, as soon as he escaped from the thousands of fans at the airport, he was immediately summoned to the company by Wang Zhonglei. The boss was obviously eager to know the content of Nie Wei's new movie.
