Chapter 025 Shao Daheng will definitely scold you for burning money.
October 26th is the Double Ninth Festival.
Su Nan met with 9-year-old Fat Bing and her parents at Skyworth Company in Tsim Sha Tsui, together with Rosamund Kwan.
In addition, there was seven-year-old Tong Liya and her parents.
Somewhat unexpectedly, 11-year-old Zhang Ziyi and her family, 11-year-old Chen Yi and his parents were also present.
This is the mute girl candidate who was finally selected after so many rounds of auditions.
Su Nan never received any information about Da Meiyuan, and then she realized that made sense.
Da Meiyuan's family is a group of highly educated and outstanding individuals who emerged from one of them.
Unlike Pang Bing, who started learning piano and dance in elementary school and entered the Xie Jin Art Academy at the age of 15.
Zhang Ziyi entered Beijing Dance Academy this year as a professional dance student!
Tong Liya also entered the children's art troupe through family education, and Chen Yi also received a lot of training from a young age.
When (Kung Fu) recruited people from major universities, it absorbed a large number of talents from the mainland.
It also clearly indicates a nationwide search for child stars.
Families who have long cultivated an interest in their daughters' talents are more likely to proactively submit applications.
Skyworth funded the trip for several promising young actresses and their parents to come to Hong Kong, including providing some assistance in expediting the document processing.
After meeting, Su Nan simply looked at them briefly and then asked A Hong to take the four girls to have their various abilities tested.
He chatted with the parents of the four child star prospective actors.
Regardless of who is ultimately selected, Skyworth hopes to sign long-term contracts with all four.
A ten-year contract plus a second option for renewal.
Even after filming (Kung Fu Hustle), they still need to continue their studies, at least finishing high school.
Over the next ten years, Skyworth will provide a stable monthly salary, based on the average wage of adults in their city.
Good grades in monthly and midterm exams can earn you double or triple your average salary as a bonus.
The accumulated bonuses will be distributed as year-end bonuses at the end of the year.
If there is a need for other child stars or teenage girls, they will be given priority.
If you're going to act in a film, the salary will be calculated based on your popularity; the higher your popularity, the more expensive the salary.
This mainly refers to the value of the GG (Good Quality Goods). Skyworth will also raise its price if the GG supplier offers more value.
They should be given at least three opportunities to play the second or third female lead in a major film every ten years, depending on their image and acting skills at the time!
Their film and television fees and GG endorsement income are split 70/30, but now Skyworth takes 70%, and as their fame grows and their fan base expands, so too will their popularity increase.
We can discuss a 60/40 split or a 50/50 split gradually.
This contract has a long term and is tied to a priority renewal option.
However, Su Nan was confident that the terms he offered were not bad either.
During the filming period, regardless of who went to Shanghai for work, Skyworth would ask one of their parents to accompany the child to the set and stay with them around the clock.
The same subsidy is given to adults based on the average monthly wage standard of the city where they reside.
After all the conditions were laid out, the parents of the four pairs of child stars were very excited and wished they could sign the contracts on the spot.
The year 90 was a rather unusual time; many state-owned enterprises in mainland China still had lifetime employment policies.
Long-term contracts aren't scary!
Is it possible for children to receive a stable salary around the age of 10? And the better their academic performance, the more bonuses they receive, with additional bonuses paid out during the Lunar New Year.
After the agreement was reached, Su Nan watched the parents leave.
Rosamund Kwan poured herself a glass of water in his office. "The terms you're offering are really..."
"Compared to you, Shao Daheng would probably scold you for wasting money."
More importantly, based on the average wage standard of the city where they are located, Skyworth, which trades with Moscow, has so much RMB that it can't even wash it all away.
The meager salary is no big deal.
Taking Zhang Ziyi as an example, the average monthly salary in Beijing this year is 220 yuan.
Sister Kwan is just a background figure here, showcasing her influence to the parents of the child stars who came to Hong Kong.
Regardless of her reputation, she is indeed a top-tier leading actress in Hong Kong.
This information had already spread throughout mainland China and beyond via countless videotapes.
Let them know that once they sign the contract, Bingbing and Zhang Ziyi will become Rosamund Kwan's fellow up-and-coming talents, which is reassuring.
Ah Hong's interviews assessed the abilities of several girls, representing supplementary information about their backgrounds as graduates of the Shanghai Theatre Academy.
Su Nan took a sip of coffee. "Old Hong still isn't back?"
"I've been running around to different film sets for half a month."
Just like the cast of "The Unlucky Ghost," he was learning while running around to the casts of "Dragon and Phoenix" and "Exorcist Police."
He had already finished writing the outline and script for (Remote Control).
The Chinese version has also been translated and optimized, including some details such as the personal script settings for the male and female protagonists.
After all, it's slow to learn when you first start.
I gradually learned how to make a film (Kung Fu Hustle), from the script structure to the entire directing system.
The more you practice, the easier it becomes. Once you have a solid foundation, you can start copying a second work.
If it weren't for the work of translating Hollywood movies into Chinese, some of the storyboards would already be available.
Rosamund Kwan said with a smile, "He selected more than 30 bodyguards, each with a monthly salary of 5000 yuan."
"I went shopping with the Afghan team, and we were scattered in several train carriages for more than six days to get to Moscow."
"Before returning, we also need to accompany Ah Guo to deliver high-performance basic materials and various design drawings to the railway company, materials that are not available in our mainland."
"His original performance schedule has been repeatedly postponed."
When Su Nan first visited the leaders of the railway authority, he brought along some valuable gifts from the Fedorov family.
After discussing the plan, they decided to directly lease a carriage with nine sleeper compartments on a long-term basis.
Old Hong copying homework doesn't mean he can't have Su Nan take him to dinner parties.
Hong Jinbao wanted to experience it firsthand once or twice and conduct in-depth research to gain a deeper understanding.
The bodyguard team he hired was responsible for ordering goods and tickets.
One K3/4 train or one K19/20 special train, the only two China-Mauritius passenger trains.
As Sister Guan spoke, she suddenly seemed confused again. "Hey, Brother Nan, something's not right."
"You're launching these projects to launder money. The more I look at it, the more I feel like you're using a 'remote control' feature?"
"This notebook seems quite interesting and fun. If it's made well, it might make a fortune."
Is this right? This doesn't seem right.
How do you come up with a good script for a project involving a bath?
This kind of sci-fi concept was rarely seen in the Hong Kong film industry before.
Su Nan laughed, "Director Xu's Wong Fei-hung movie is about to start filming, has your Thirteenth Aunt been cast yet?"
The first Jackie Chan Wong Fei-hung film was released in August 1991 during the summer season.
However, compared to most films that are completed in 20 days or a month.
This movie was also filmed and produced over half a year.
Ah-Jie's injuries and the use of a stunt double are minor matters; the action choreography style has also changed many times.
The main difference is that Xu Jinglei's new-style martial arts films incorporate a grand narrative of saving the country and the nation, making them different from typical Hong Kong martial arts films.
Rosamund Kwan was excited, "It's basically settled. I really want to thank Director Tsui for thinking so highly of me."
"The character of Aunt Thirteen is quite positive. I never thought I would have the opportunity to play such a role."
Just like when the two had just met, before she had become so insightful that she couldn't stop smiling.
Rosamund Kwan herself complained that, apart from projects related to Hung Kam-po, the only other ones involved were projects related to Hung Kam-po.
Her background has long associated her with screen images such as villainous supporting roles and mistresses of powerful figures.
The character of Aunt Thirteen in the new version of the Wong Fei-hung story directed by Xu Ke is very positive and wonderful.
In the past few months, Rosamund Kwan has often hung out with Su Nan, and tabloids have taken photos of her and spread gossip and rumors from time to time.
This includes photos of Su Nan and Chen Hong traveling together, with Su Nan occasionally taking their place.
It's just that the mainstream newspapers didn't follow suit in reporting it, but her image as a serial mistress has been further solidified.
The producers considered letting Xu Ke try other people, but Lao Xu insisted on using her.
Su Nan thought for a moment, "Could you help me make an appointment with Director Xu? I'd like to talk to him and learn from his experience."
Sister Guan became even more agitated, "Oh, you're going to personally speak up for me?"
Now she wants to learn how to be both witty and erudite.
Although Xu Ke supported her, Yuan Biao, whom Jiahe forced into the position, was also her elder.
But Su Nan herself has also risen to fame!
The most important thing is not how well he makes movies in southern Jiangsu, but how he rises to prominence in business, similar to the traditional model of how wealthy families make their fortunes.
A few years later, when Rita Lam's mother publicly spoke out against Joey Wong, she still bluntly said that she was soliciting prostitutes.
