Chapter Seventy-Five: Mountains and Rivers Pictures and "Family with Children"
Dongshantai's stake in Zuo Lexin's company went well.
After realizing that Zuo Le had made up his mind and understood that the twisted melon was not sweet, Chen Changshan recognized Zuo Le's proposal after a little hesitation and strongly supported it.
Dongshantai invested 20 million yuan and occupied 15% of the shares of Zuo Lexin Company.
In fact, Chen Changshan still wanted to ask for more shares, but Zuo Le just didn't let go.
Dongshan Taijia has a big business, and it is the official background, and a small number of shares will have more advantages than disadvantages for the development of the new company, but if too many shares are given, Zuo Le may not be suppressed.
Zuo Le's original intention was not to be controlled by others, and he wanted to find a backer for himself, the two sides were in a cooperative relationship, and the initiative was in his hands.
Zuo Le solemnly discussed this point with Chen Changshan and prepared to write it into the contract.
Dongshantai, a shareholder, only has dividends and preferential cooperation rights, and Dongshantai has no right to interfere in the company's operation.
Chen Changshan probably understood Zuo Le's concerns, after all, he was an old subordinate, and he agreed to Zuo Le's request with a lot of face, and later when someone in the station raised opinions on this, he also tried his best to reject public opinion.
"Xiao Zuo is his own person who went out in Taiwan, and we should support young people to start their own businesses, rather than pulling back their legs.
Also, don't be so high-minded, I think people can't mix when they leave the stage, with Xiao Zuo's current reputation, in a word, some people are holding money and cooperating with him.
People don't forget their roots, they have the heart to go hand in hand with our station, we can't get an inch, if anyone makes a small move, don't blame me Chen Changshan for turning his face and not recognizing people. ”
In the past year, because Dongshantai has continued to achieve good results, the province is very satisfied with Chen Changshan's work, and I heard that he is interested in letting him take up a deputy position in the propaganda mouth, and Chen's prestige in Dongshantai is becoming more and more prosperous.
He spoke strongly in support of Zuo Le, and with Mo Dashan and Lao Fang, whose status in Taili had recently skyrocketed, waving their flags and shouting beside them, this matter was settled.
In late February, Zuo Le officially resigned from Dongshantai, but he was given the title of honorary consultant of Dongshantai by Lao Fang, and he received a monthly subsidy.
After that, Zuo Le went to run the procedures of the new company, and at this time, the benefits of having a TV station shareholder came, and all kinds of processes went quickly, and they were all completed in just a few days.
The new company name is Sunward Pictures.
The mountain is the mountain of the East Mountain.
The river is the river of the Yellow River.
It also means to lay a splendid landscape in the entertainment industry.
Miss Tian Yan felt that this name was a bit vulgar, not as poetic as the sunshine at noon, the light rain in the middle of the night, etc., but Zuo Le felt that Shanhe listened domineering, so he directly ignored his girlfriend's suggestion and insisted on his own opinion.
...............
After the establishment of Sunward Pictures, Zuo Le found an office building and rented a floor, and then recruited some necessary staff such as personnel, finance, and administrative clerks through a headhunting company to ensure the normal operation of the company.
He himself went out personally to recruit film and television professionals.
The first one is Lao Jiu Mingyan, the assistant director of "Underground Transportation Station".
This guy is a talent, and there is nothing he doesn't understand in film and television drama shooting and production, and he is an absolute all-rounder.
What's more, Ming Yan has always been "obsessed" with Zuo Le, since he was filming "Underground Transportation Station", he was full of desire to take refuge in Zuo Le, this time when he heard Zuo Le set up another door, a phone call, Ming Yan immediately packed up his baggage and came to Quancheng.
After Mingyan arrived in Quancheng, he learned that Zuo Le was recruiting troops, so he came up and gave Zuo Le a big surprise.
Ming Yan entered the industry at the age of seventeen, and has been in the circle for many years, although he is not very good, but he is very familiar.
Under his leadership, Zuo Le easily recruited a lot of film and television talents with excellent professional skills, saving a lot of trouble.
Subsequently, the film and television production department of Shanhe Pictures was officially established, and Zuo Lerang Mingyan temporarily acted as the head of the department.
After that, Zuo Le personally went north to Kongwen, looked at the thatched house three times, and with his incorruptible tongue, he "borrowed" the screenwriter Shang Qianwu, who participated in "The Story of the Cooking Class" with him.
Zuo Le, who has had in-depth cooperation with Shang Qianwu, knows that this screenwriter who has been trained from the grassroots level has strong creative skills, is very good at life description, and his writing is light and humorous.
When Kongwen filmed "The Story of the Cooking Class", Zuo Le listed a "corner list", and Shang Qianwu ranked in the top three, which was a must-dig list.
And, during the persuasion of Shang Qianwu, Zuo Le also went to Jingdian and the national opera for a spin, and fooled a few fresh graduates majoring in screenwriting to return to Quancheng with him.
After that, Zuo Le took Shang Qianwu and these recent graduates of screenwriting as the backbone to establish the editorial department of Shanhe Pictures, and absorbed fresh blood from the outside for a long time.
In Zuo Le's vision, sitcoms will be one of the important career areas of Sunward Pictures in the future, and for a successful sitcom, screenwriters are very important key points.
"The Story of the Cooking Class" has proved that Zuo Le's golden finger is not omnipotent, after all, he has limited manpower alone, Zuo Le can't constantly revise film and television scripts, he needs the help of a large number of excellent screenwriters.
Zuo Le has great ambitions for the future of the editorial department, and he plans to build the editorial department of Shanhe Pictures into a first-class or even top screenwriting team in China.
At that time, he only needs to produce a script outline and character settings, and the editorial department will create a complete script according to the outline settings, improve quality and quantity, and save time.
Zuo Le even hopes that the editorial department will grow to the end, and he will be able to create a high-quality script without him providing an outline, and at that time, even if there is an accident with Goldfinger, it will not affect him.
............
Of course, no matter how awesome Zuo Le imagines the future of the editorial department, in reality it is just three or two big cats and small fish.
Shang Qianwu, the only one who is expected to become famous, turned out that because "The Story of the Cooking Class" has not yet been broadcast, there is no well-known masterpiece on his resume.
But Zuo Le was not discouraged, there would be bread, there would be milk, everything would be there.
As soon as the editorial department and the film and television production department were in place, Zuo Le began to establish the first drama of the company.
"Family with Children"
This drama appeared in his mind after the broadcast of "Traffic Station No. 2", and there are two of them.
Zuo Le finished watching these two films when he was filming in Kongwen, and felt that they were very suitable as the opening work of Shanhe Pictures, with a small investment, a large range of suitable audiences, and not a strong shooting difficulty, which can train the team.
What's more, "Family with Children" has a large number of episodes, and according to the experience of the original version, several can be filmed.
Zuo Le threw the script setting of "Family with Children" that had been prepared a long time ago to the editorial department, and asked Shang Qianwu to set them according to the outline and make a detailed outline of the episodes first.
Like "The Story of the Cooking Class", the background of the original "Family with Children" is very different from Zuo Le's current 17 years, so many plots in the play have to be greatly changed, and the workload is not low.
Zuo Le originally intended to lead the team to write it himself, but he still had to go to the post-production of "The Story of the Cooking Class".
So I can only let Shang Qianwu write it first, and when he is busy with the later stage of "The Story of the Cooking Class", he will come back to join the script creation of "Family with Children".
The editorial department has work to do, and Zuo Le did not let the production department be idle.
He found someone to draw a few scenes of "Family with Children" on the computer, and asked Ming Yan to build the shooting scene according to the drawings.
