1979 Golden Age

Shi Nansheng was in good spirits, happy from the inside out.

Shi Hui had communicated with her several times, that is, the arrangements for the two, what method to use, how to distribute the profits, etc., all clearly stated, without any concealment.

This attitude made the two feel respected, and also felt that they were stupid before.

Tsui Hark was a flop when he joined Cinema City, but Shi Nansheng was in charge of the company's administration + finance, and sometimes he could also be a producer, and this identity did not even have 1% of the shares.

So Shi Nansheng is now very motivated and takes the initiative to search for talents.

"Adong, when I left that day, I told you to come to me if you can't make it. But I didn't expect that I would settle down so quickly. You should know the reason why I asked you to come."

"..."

Lin Lingdong said very little. After a moment of silence, he asked, "Did Gao Zhisen agree?"

"Huang Baiming is his master, and he wants to follow his master. I can promise you that you will have a movie to shoot when you come. There are too few directors here, so there are many opportunities."

"There are also few directors in Xinyicheng, and they are exhausted by you. I also have a chance."

"Exhausted?"

Shi Nansheng laughed and said, "If it was just exhausted, they would set off fireworks to celebrate. Xinyicheng is the target of public criticism. Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest will definitely add insult to injury. We There is no intention to stop here, until they are killed.

A Dong, I remind you that the nature of your coming this year and next year is different. "

"..."

Lin Lingdong hesitated and asked: "Can you really give me a movie right away?"

"You studied film in Canada and accepted the most advanced theories abroad. Our previous directors are too old and their cognition cannot keep up with the times. We need new talents like you the most.

If you don't trust me, it doesn't matter. Sister Shi Hui can come, Mr. Fu Qi can come, and Mr. Chen Qi can come. We are thirsty for talents. What kind of new force is Xinyicheng? They can only make stereotyped movies. We are the ones who really want to create an era, let a hundred flowers bloom, and a hundred schools of thought contend!"

Shi Nansheng unconsciously turned left.

Lin Lingdong's expression was also strange. He struggled in his heart and said: "Can I consider it?"

"Yes, but as soon as possible. We will hold a press conference in a few days. I hope you can appear with us."

Ministry of Culture.

Chen Huangmei, the original leader in charge of film, responded to the retirement policy of old cadres and just retired to the second line. Now he has the title of consultant.

The leader who took over was called Ding Qiao.

He was also an old revolutionary. He used to work mainly on news documentaries and was the deputy director of the Film Bureau. Now he was promoted.

Ding Qiao had just handed over his work in May and was very busy. Now he was sitting in the office, reviewing a document, then wrote a few comments, put it aside, and then looked at the next one.

"A letter from Hong Kong?"

He saw that the cover was a bit strange, so he opened it and found that there were only a few pages of paper with a few photos.

This was the first half of the year work summary report written by Comrade Chen Qi, the executive vice president of Oriental Culture and Art Co., Ltd., a non-department-level cadre. He said two things in total:

Three films will be shot this year, and one has been shot.

This year's harvest is good. The two films earned more than 12 million US dollars. When the film is released in Hong Kong, there will be Hong Kong dollars in the account.

Ding Qiao's hand shook and was burned by the cigarette butt. He twisted the cigarette butt into the ashtray, took off his reading glasses and wiped it, and looked at it again to confirm that it was the number of 12 million.

The manuscript slowly moved down, revealing his extremely shocked face.

"Is it fake?"

He had the same reaction at first, and then denied it. It was impossible! If you dare to fake something with real money, you don't want to live anymore. After confirming this, a great surprise enveloped your whole body, and even the old revolutionary couldn't stop trembling.

"I heard that this kid is a genius, but I didn't expect him to be able to do this!"

"12 million US dollars!"

Last year, the national foreign exchange reserves were 2.708 billion US dollars, and the year before was negative.

This reserve refers to how much money is spent and how much is earned, and the money left in the end. To be honest, there are many major foreign exchange earners in the country, but they are all large enterprises with thousands or tens of thousands of people.

How many people are there in the East Factory?

Ding Qiao was interested and immediately asked for the information to check it himself.

Boss: Li Mingfu.

Then there is Chen Qi, plus a finance, and three new administrative staff.

The following are all actors: Li Lianjie (seconded), Ji Chunhua, and Li Jianqun. Then there are the five people from the magazine, and Zhang Yimou, Zhang Junzhao, He Qun, and He Ping who have not yet officially joined the company.

Counting all of them, there are only eighteen people!

Ding Qiao knew that the East Factory was borrowing the power of the left, but this ability to make money was really terrifying.

Moreover, he was a new official, and before he could even start his career, he was roasted first. What a gift!!

In an instant, he had a very good impression of Chen Qi both publicly and privately. He continued to read on, and saw several applications written by Chen Qi, including office space, expansion of personnel, and a more relaxed management system.

Finally, he said that he wanted to build a building in partnership with the Beijing Film Studio and hoped to coordinate some building materials.

There are also some foreign actors in "Life is Beautiful" who applied to come to the mainland to shoot for two weeks.

"..."

Ding Qiao pondered for a while, and immediately called a meeting of cadres to announce this matter in public.

Everyone was stunned.

Last year's 4.8 million was beyond imagination. This year's increase of 30%, or even 15%, will make the superiors very satisfied. The result was that it suddenly soared to, uh, it doesn’t count…

"Comrade Chen Qi made several applications and wanted a regular office space. They rented an office in the Beijing Film Studio, which was really shabby. In addition, he hoped to expand staffing, free operations, and building materials for the building. …”

"Is that too much to ask for?"

"With so many people, do they need to build dormitories?"

"You still have office space, do you want to apply for land?"

Immediately, a few people objected, but more people immediately supported: "There are punishments for mistakes and rewards for merits. Xiao Chen has made such a big contribution, and the demands are not excessive at all!"

"I got 12 million U.S. dollars, what happened to the site, staff, and building materials?"

"This is the honor of the entire cultural system. If you are not convinced, why don't you go earn foreign exchange?"

There are still many people who understand that opposing Chen Qi at this time cannot be justified in terms of both justice and personal reasons.

You know, this US dollar is directly deposited into the bank's account specifically for collecting foreign exchange, and then converted into RMB at the official exchange rate, plus some subsidies, and is allocated to Dongchang. This year the RMB/USD ratio is 1.89:1.

But everyone knows how much it can actually be redeemed.

This is the official taking advantage of Dongchang. If they don't provide some other conveniences, it would be really disloyal.

…………

Overseas Chinese Affairs Office and Hong Kong Affairs Office compound.

Mr. Liao was sitting in a wheelchair and kept cheering. It was rare for him to be so happy as his health worsened.

He took Fu Qi's report and read it over and over again, but still brought up the matter of leftist merger.

Before, due to various reasons, I never agreed, but now it is different, because the leftists only made a comeback with the help of Chen Qi. Doesn't that prove that they need to be twisted into a rope?

Mr. Liao called his secretary and ordered: "Ask Fu Qi and Xiao Chen to send the tapes of "Tai Chi 2" and "Orphan's Revenge". I want to watch them! Forget about horror movies, "Tai Chi 2" was not given to me right away. Look, you don’t take me as an audience seriously.”

"Okay!" the secretary smiled.

"There is also this report. Let everyone study it and respond as soon as possible."

"OK!"

(Back pain is gone...

Make up for it tomorrow! )
