The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Haina Company held a general meeting at the end of the year. First, all shareholders sat in the large conference room to listen to the report, and Yang Dongxu made some decisions on the spot. And the general plan for the company's development next year, and then the people below are busy.

Liu Zongsheng will sit in Yang Dongxu's office and talk about things that are not easy to talk about at the conference. For example, the two of them are talking now, and the acting and you are directing this matter.

If you are good at directing, you will act, if you are good at singing, you will act, and if you are good at acting, you will sing. The entertainment industry is indeed a circle, and many people stay at one point all their lives. And many people always want to draw this circle.

In the past few years, the domestic film market can be said to be booming, so many actors have the idea of ​​directing the film themselves.

Such things in the entertainment industry are actually not uncommon, but so far, there are several successful cases of Dao Eryou acting. If you are good at acting, you are good at directing, and there are really very few successful ones.

Although Hong Kong and Taiwan have a few successful examples, such examples cannot be used as a reference to replicate. For example, director Wang Jing, even though he directs a movie, he will also play a role in it.

But before he became a director, first of all, he had been in the crew for many years, and he had also played many roles with this foundation.

Later, when he specialized in directing, he put in a lot of hard work, and then there were some successful cases in which he directed and acted in blockbuster movies.

But in these movies, he is basically a supporting role. The protagonist needs to invite some big names to support him, so basically some of the films produced are box office hits, and some can recoup the cost even if the response is mediocre, which feels very successful.

And now Haina and the few who want to act and you are directing are all absolute big names. First of all, I will play a supporting role for others, and I will focus more on directing.

These few people want to act, but if they are excellent, they will direct. It must be that they themselves are the directors and the protagonists. The current successful case is only Zhou Xingxing, the only outstanding representative.

But Mr. Xing was indeed an actor in the past, but when he was an actor, he had already started to participate in a lot of work in the crew, such as discussing scripts with the screenwriter and director, and even many movies were still assigned the position of assistant director. Director's job.

What about other stars who want to be directors?

Most estimates are to discuss the script with the screenwriter, and basically they do not provide much constructive suggestions for the script. In fact, it was discussed with the screenwriter for the script.

There are screenwriters and directors who are stuck, and even though these changes sometimes seem a little weird, they are at least within the audience's acceptance range. If the director also becomes these leading actors, then he is not really letting himself go.

"It's not good to refuse directly. After all, they are all big stars, or pillars, and some of them are shareholders of the company. So it would not look good to refuse directly.

And many people feel that no matter what they can do, especially for those who have already succeeded, their self-confidence is even more overwhelming. So if you don't let them bang their heads on the south wall, they won't know how hard the south wall is. "

"That thing"

"The company's support is not just investment support, but also film approval and release. We provide all-round support with a set of dragon services.

But it is not unconditional support, first of all, investment. Whether it is a big name who wants to be a director to make a movie, the company only invests 20%, and the remaining 80% is to solicit investment or pay out of their own pockets, we don't ask.

As for film approval, there is also the promotion of subsequent film releases, as well as the inclination of resources such as theaters. Give an internal price a 30% discount, all of which are included in the cost of the movie. It's not that the company has invested, it's all thrown to the company's logistics to act as a babysitter for them.

If the first film is successful, then when they want to make the second and third films, they can increase their investment as appropriate if they are willing to let the company continue to invest. But we must control the script well, don’t make the first one successful, and use the second script no matter what kind of mess to let us increase investment. "

"I understand." Liu Zongsheng nodded.

This matter is indeed more difficult than sparse. After all, everyone has two shoulders and one head. Why can he succeed and I can't?

But in fact, it is true that if others can do it, you just can't.

But this obviously cannot be said so bluntly, and things cannot be done so bluntly. It takes them to beat themselves to the ground to see reality.

Otherwise, you will stop it when you come up, and you are doing it for his own good, but others may not accept your affection. Maybe you still feel that you are preventing others from being successful and living a better life.

So don't you feel like you can do it?

OK!

The company also feels that you can do it, and stands with you in a trench with various financial and resource support. As a result, the movie hit the street, and then will you make more movies in Ansheng in the future?

As for the money lost by the company, those who are ready to act and lead are basically big names with self-confidence. After a few plays, it won't be a loss, but there will be a lot of profits, and it can be said to kill two birds with one stone if it can be stabilized.

"How are the artists in the special training class?" Yang Dongxu opened the document in front of him and asked casually as he was about to start work.

"Very good. A few of them have basically stabilized their foundation by relying on a few good scenes, and they can take the leading role to carry out a big drama. As long as one character is successful, it is basically a stable line." Said this Liu Zongsheng's face blossomed with joy.

Although the artists in the special training class began to burst out with unimaginable energy, every day the naked eye could see the fruits of their harvest expanding again and again.

But every time the artists in these special training classes can still surprise Liu Zongsheng, so when the special training class is mentioned, he is simply overjoyed, thinking that he made this model at the beginning is really awesome.

"The benefits that should be given have kept up, and others have been cultivated. As a result, they paid liquidated damages and became the pillars of other companies." Yang Dongxu reminded.

Although the liquidated damages for the contracts signed with the students of these special training classes were higher and higher one by one. But when some of these people are willing to pay liquidated damages and leave.

No matter how high the liquidated damages are, it is basically a loss for the company. Because if the other party does not leave and stay in the company, the value that can be created for the company will definitely exceed the liquidated damages.

"I've already begun to draw up the new contracts of some students in the special training class who have performed very well." Liu Zongsheng nodded and said that he has been paying attention to this matter.

The previously signed contract has not yet expired, and the company canceled the slightly harsh contract before, and signed a new contract with you with a lot of benefits.

It doesn't matter whether the company is watching the dishes or not, this is a kind of kindness. If it's all like this, if something goes wrong, I'm sorry to let you see Haina's kind side before, you seem to have misunderstood.

In the following, I will let you see how sharp the knife in the hands of Haina Entertainment, which is the overlord of the Asian entertainment circle, has branches in Hollywood, and has achieved great results, when banning a certain star artist .

It wasn't until after eight o'clock in the evening that Yang Dongxu dealt with the documents piled up on the desk, and left the rest to Liu Zongsheng to deal with.

It was up to him, the big boss, to make the decision, and he basically gave instructions, and the rest of the company executives held meetings to discuss it by themselves.

In the evening, Yang Dongxu returned to Li Li's residence. Luckily, Baiqian was not in Yanjing now, and she was traveling to Sanwan to raise her baby quietly. Otherwise, Li Li today, and Bai Qian's companion tomorrow, can't help but feel like a scumbag.

After opening the door and entering the house, Li Li, who was still wearing an apron, hurried out from the kitchen to give her slippers. Then they started serving tea and pouring water again.

"It's fine if you're busy. Be careful that the food gets mushy. I don't need to take care of myself." Seeing that Li Li was about to peel a banana for him again, Yang Dongxu waved his hand.

"That can't be done, you are the old man, you have to be careful. You don't have to watch the fire when you are cooking soup in the pot." While speaking, Li Li put the peeled banana into Yang Dongxu's mouth.

It can be seen that she is indeed willing to do these things and enjoys it. It's not some affectation.

"I've thought about opening a store. It's too noisy to open a brand clothing store and a pet store." Li Li said.

Yang Dongxu glanced at her speechlessly. The pet shop is noisy, and the cafe is quiet. Putting a piano in the middle is both quiet and stylish, and the option of a clothing store doesn’t seem to be on your list of opening a store before, right?

However, women are fickle when it comes to multiple-choice questions, and Yang Dongxu has long had a deep understanding, so at this time, he will definitely not turn the sub-question into a proposition.

"It's fine if you like it. Since you want to open a branded clothing store, have you decided to act as an agent for that clothing brand? Tell me when you're done thinking about it, and I'll find someone to take it for you.

Also think about the agency brand before finding a store. Some brands have requirements for the size and decoration of the store. Although these can be changed, since it is their rule, let's not bully others and be special. "

"I like it, you are so domineering." Li Li put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the cheek, "But I'm not going to find a storefront, but I'm going to find an office building to rent an office."

"Huh?" Yang Dongxu froze for a moment, not knowing what Li Li was going to play.

"I open an online store for branded clothing, which is online shopping. I open a store on Taobao. Do you know about Taobao?" Li Li said with bright eyes, as if a child is not only happy but also very happy to get a new toy he likes. is excited.

"I know, I'm still a shareholder of Treasure." Yang Dongxu, who was a little slow to react for a while, nodded in a daze.

"Really?" The light in Li Li's eyes became brighter.

"It's not pretending to be the president of the World Bank. Why is this lying to you? But if you really want to open an online store, don't act as an agent for big-name clothing. You should act as an agent for some small brands. Or it's better to own a brand than an agent .”

After adapting to the surprise brought by Li Li's new brain circuit, Yang Dongxu began to give some suggestions for opening an online store.

"Why? I made a special investigation and found that the reputation of Taobao is good. If I want to open a branded clothing store on it, first of all, the trust of customers is still very high. And there are not many branded clothing stores on it now, and most of them are small. No-name clothing, this will definitely make money." Li Li looked puzzled.

"It's because we must make money, so we can't be an agent. Or even if we get an agent to make money, it's not long-term enough. Now many international big brands just haven't reacted yet.

Therefore, it is still operating in the model of selling agency rights as before and opening physical stores offline. After they discover the fertile ground of online shopping, do you think they will open a flagship store there?

And you compare an agent with a flagship store. Even if the other party unintentionally offers some price discounts to suppress you. But when the time comes, in the hearts of those online shoppers, do they trust you more as an agent, or do they have more flagship stores of their own brands? "

"This can be avoided by writing it into the contract in the early stage. You also said that they don't pay much attention to online shopping now. It shouldn't be difficult to negotiate, and then talk about extending the agency term." Li Li said.

"First of all, you may not know that you have represented a brand before, and the agency period is such a thing that other brands are not stupid, and it is impossible to sign a long agency period with you.

A maximum of five years is already a long time, and no one will agree to this if you pay more. As for taking the online shopping agency right ahead of time to operate independently.

This can be discussed, but don't underestimate how shameless the brand is. If you really make a lot of money here, they must think of various ways to open a flagship store online. As long as the interests are sufficient, it is not uncommon to file a lawsuit to pay liquidated damages. "

"How could they do this?" Li Li pouted and became unhappy for a moment.

After finally thinking of a golden idea to make money, before showing off in front of Yang Dongxu to satisfy his vanity, a lot of troubles ended up being aborted.
