Chapter 45: The Star of the Future
Not to mention Li Yong's dedication to Zhao Yazhi in the name of the event, or Fang Qiang's speculation about the strength of the Fang family, Fang Wanshan suddenly became heavy in the hearts of several people, and it became mysterious.
At least Zhao Yazhi was very interested in the Fang family, this was good news for the other party Wanshan, but now that he had returned home, with a little guilt, after talking to Zhong Chuhong on the phone, he washed up and prepared to rest.
Today's chance encounter made Fang Wanshan's brain active, lying in bed and unable to sleep, and many Xiangjiang stars of this era have been floating in his mind.
Anyway, it's still early, and Fang Wanshan can't sleep, so he opened the notepad in his phone and began to recall some of the characters in his mind before, but the protagonist is still a green leaf, write the name if you can remember, and write the name of the character if you don't know the name, this list is the asset of the DreamWorks Artist Department in the future.
-------------------------------------
The next day, Fang Wanshan went to the company after breakfast at home early, Zhong Chuhong followed the crew during this time, and many times he set off by himself very early, and he had nothing to do for Fang Wanshan, but there was an important thing today, which was to determine the person in charge of the artist department.
For the behind-the-scenes personnel in the film and television industry, Fang Wanshan is really blind, and he can only judge whether he is talented or not based on communication.
Although Fang Wanshan arrived at the company at 9:30 early this morning, when he arrived, Xiao Sun reported to him that the three candidates had come and were waiting for him in the conference room.
Fang Wanshan followed closely and asked Xiao Sun to help arrange for them to come to the office to meet one by one, and he went in to review their information first.
After a while, Xiao Sun brought a middle-aged man with a little gray hair, and the suit on his body was not often worn, for this, Fang Wanshan knew him, Xie Guangbo, his first nobleman.
Fang Wanshan immediately got up and shouted, "Uncle Xie,"
waved his hand to let the secretary Xiao Sun pour the tea, and sat down on the sofa with Xie Guangbo in the reception, but although Fang Wanshan was very enthusiastic, Xie Guangbo was still very restrained, completely so that Fang Wanshan couldn't see the middle-aged man who was a little humorous and comfortable a few years ago.
Fang Wanshan saw that Uncle Xie was a little nervous, and he didn't talk about his resume, but just chatted with him about family life, and slowly learned about his life in the past few years.
A few years ago, as an employee of Shaw Brothers Films, he was still an experienced drama manager, Xie Guangbo still lived a very good life, but as he got older and Shaw Brothers movies began to decline, he also slowly calmed down.
For Fang Wanshan, who had the same experience, he was very empathetic, and the two chatted for more than half an hour, and Fang Wanshan directly appointed him as the vice president of the branch, and he was in charge of an independent team first.
got up and called Xiao Sun to come in to help take Xie Guangbo to go through the formalities, Fang Wanshan also invited him to wait for lunch to eat together, so he called the next one.
The second person who came in was a rich fat man, probably in his 30s, and unlike Xie Guangbo, he was dressed quite fashionably and did not wear formal clothes.
The person who came was called Zhang Che, and he smiled a little like Maitreya Buddha, which made people feel kind, and the first impression of Fang Wanshan was good, and after beckoning him to sit down across the boss's table, Fang Wanshan chatted with him about some things and methods of artist management and training.
Zhang Che is very good at management, and he is not too good at cultivating and hyping these more advanced methods, but his reaction is very fast, and he can learn Fang Wanshan, which is just a thing on paper, and also dig out the reasons and specific operations.
For Zhang Che, Fang Wanshan is very satisfied at present, and after letting Xiao Sun help pour a cup of coffee, Fang Wanshan took the opportunity to introduce Zhang Che to the knowledge of the classification and management of actors by American actors.
It was very pleasant to chat with Zhang Che Fang Wanshan, at first he was leading, but then Zhang Che was basically saying, Fang Wanshan was just listening, so the chat was almost more than 11 o'clock, Fang Wanshan remembered that there was another candidate, so he first appointed Zhang Che as the vice president of the company, and the treatment was the same as that of a partner.
Zhang Che thought about it and agreed to Fang Wanshan's appointment, in fact, he was not short of money, but he was very optimistic about Fang Wanshan's and the company's prospects, because Fang Wanshan said that he wanted to buy a free TV station when he had the opportunity.
The last to appear is Lin Qing, with glasses, not very old, Fang Wanshan is estimated to be less than thirty, very scholarly, compared to Zhang Che, he speaks very gently, not in a hurry or slowly, he is very good at theory, but for the specific thing that is back and forth, but Fang Wanshan is very interested in the little singer Chen Baiqiang in his hand.
After chatting for a while, Fang Wanshan appointed him as the artist director, and in this way, the basic framework of DreamWorks was finally built, and at noon Fang Wanshan took all the departments of the company to have a dinner together, and everyone knew each other.
Vanke DreamWorks is now expanding rapidly, there are already a lot of personnel, one table can no longer sit down, divided into two tables, during which Fang Wanshan explained a few names to Zhang Che and Xie Guangbo, these are Fang Wanshan asked them to use their relationship to help dig up.
In addition to Chow Yun-fat, Zhao Yazhi, and Lu Liangwei who I saw yesterday, Fang Wanshan also added some green leaf actors, Liu Dan, Huang Rihua, Wu Mengda, etc., this is the task of the two of them during this time.
The explanation to Lin Qing is to issue a classified contract for actors and singers, and build the legal department of Vanke DreamWorks with Wuma.
After finishing these things, in the afternoon, Fang Wanshan took the preliminary deleted resumes to the three of them, let them make their own decisions, select some personnel to enrich their group, and if they were not satisfied, let them contact the personnel department of the parent company of Vanke DreamWorks.
After everything was explained, Fang Wanshan returned to a state of idleness, and in the end there was no choice but to go to school and start messing around, and by the way, see how Feng Guang's kid was doing.
In fact, it's already April, and there will be university exams for Fang Wanshan soon, but for Fang Wanshan who has a back door, these are not problems, and he still has a mobile phone to cheat, isn't it.
After a week, Fang Wanshan, who returned to school again, didn't feel a trace of change, but felt that he was a little out of place here, and couldn't help but feel that his life was hard, he had always been either studying in college or taking the university entrance examination, and he had always dreamed of taking the university entrance examination before in his previous life, and he had taken the exam again after finishing college, and he was old in his dream.
There are fewer people in the sixth class, and there are only about 20 people in each class, but there are many people, Fang Wanshan still knows each other, and the classmates are still very surprised to see Fang Wanshan's appearance, for the students in the class, everyone is used to Fang Wanshan not coming to class, and everyone is not used to his arrival.
The classes of the Sixth Form Preparatory Department are basically self-study, many of them are some things from the university, and the arithmetic in today's class, the teacher is just explaining some preliminary probability concepts on it, for Fang Wanshan, who has done numerical planning before, these are pediatrics.
The discrete and probability in the university are much more advanced than this, Fang Wanshan pulled the dogleg Ye Ziang on the side and asked him some questions last time, the recent situation of Huang Jiaju and Lan Jieying, and then he made fun of him, his sister Ye Suqun is so beautiful, and he doesn't let his buddies see him, it's not interesting enough.
Ye Ziang was very concerned about Fang Wanshan's explanation, and in less than an afternoon, he came back and replied to Fang Wanshan: Huang Jiaju is now forming a band with a few buddies, and he is helping in the tea restaurant at home; Lan Jieying has been admitted to the wireless actor training class some time ago, and she is about to graduate in a few months after hearing the news they heard.
Lan Jieying signed an intention contract in the artist department of DreamWorks last year, but at that time it was all formal, there was no management and training, she graduated for a long time, and she didn't wait for the notice of the company's personnel, so she went to the wireless to sign up for actor training, one is a TV station, a film company, for a newcomer like her, there is no conflict.
Fang Wanshan didn't expect Lan Jieying's behavior, but he still blamed himself for not paying much attention to their happy combination before, but it seems that Lan Jieying really likes to perform, next time remember to remind Zhang Che that the company is basically on track now.
Huang Jiaju's condition is not very good, other Fang Wanshan asked him after graduation, but Huang Jiaju, who has a strong self-esteem, declined him, let's take a look first, Fang Wanshan still likes the unyielding Huang Jiaju, and it is also the only way to endure more hardships. However, for his professional music, he can't stop, and Huang Jiaju in later generations has a small shortcoming that is professional music training, and this artist training should also count their band.
April 13, 1980, today is Saturday, but the mainland artist exchange experts have not yet made the trip, according to the news replied by Wuma, they are still going through various procedures, and they will probably arrive next week, but Feng Guang on the school side has already arranged the list of this training today, and the day before yesterday, Fang Wanshan asked him to inform all the students.
The first training place was set up on the edge of Vanke DreamWorks Company, and the classroom was personally run by Zhang Che, and the DreamWorks branch has basically taken shape in the past few days, and now there are 5 artist agents and 3 director-level, and the company's artist basic information has been preliminarily sorted.
Fang Wanshan is still quite satisfied with Zhang Che's work ability, it depends on his organization of this training and the signing of the list given to him last time, if everything is more satisfactory to Fang Wanshan, then the general manager of DreamWorks is him.
Feng Guang They are divided according to the school area, the entire Xiangjiang is divided into 3 areas, Kowloon, the New Territories, the island, of which Kowloon is the base camp of the alumni association, and it is also the largest number of people, this time the organization came over the Kowloon area, originally Xiangjiang is not big, Feng Guang They mean that the students go by themselves, but Fang Wanshan takes into account the safety problem, most of them are still girls, and there are many families in Xiangjiang who are not very good, so they paid a few buses by themselves and picked up people according to the school area.
This time, there were nearly 90 participants, and when the bus arrived, Fang Wanshan went over to greet each student one by one, and Feng Guang on the side signed them in according to the list, after all, there are points for participating in the activities of the class reunion, and the points may be upgraded, and they can also get a certain economic subsidy.
Fang Wanshan looked at the groups of girls, many of them were still very immature, Fang Wanshan wanted to see if there were familiar faces, it was still relatively rare, but the hard work paid off, in addition to the names on the list that could be matched, Fang Wanshan found a few more.
Guan Jiahui, now Fang Wanshan can already be sure that she must be Guan Meiren, although she is now 18 years old, she still looks like a doll, and now she has the capital to charm all beings.
When Fang Wanshan saw her, his eyes kept discharging, but unfortunately Fang Wanshan had a little understanding of her future essence and was not very interested, but he still asked Feng Guang to give her a 5-star rating at the back of the list.
The rating is Fang Wanshan and Zhang Che's refinement of the "Future Star" plan, 3 stars or more can get the apprentice training salary provided by the company, sign a contract ranging from 5~10 years, and the company's resources need to focus on training and tilting, and other personnel are involved in the form of activities, with only a small subsidy.
Fang Wanshan can give some people stars independently, and others are scored by the company through training teachers and their observations, and now Fang Wanshan has scored as many as 7 or 8, and there are a few boys who have not seen Wanshan in front of him, but he didn't expect them to be so old now.
Andy Lau, a model actor, a famous patriotic artist in later generations, but the registered name that Fang Wanshan saw was a very rustic name, Liu Furong, Andy Lau is actually older than Fang Wanshan, but now it is still middle five, but my handsomeness makes people remember at a glance that when Fang Wanshan saw him, he was dressed very plainly and cleanly, but he looked very energetic.
Andy Lau is one of Fang Wanshan's favorite artists, ranking above Chow Yun-fat, Fang Wanshan needless to say is also a 5-star evaluation, and asked Feng Guang to remember it for him, and remind Fang Wanshan more in the future.
Liu Qingyun, the black-faced actor, is not half as handsome as Andy, for him, Fang Wanshan has not many impressions, he remembers an honest and loyal face, but in later generations, his wife Guo Aiming and Fang Wanshan like it very much, star couples can retire, and it is true greatness who is willing to be bland, and give him a rating of 4 stars given by Fang Wanshan.
Speaking of Liu Qingyun, Fang Wanshan actually saw Li Ruotong just now, but now she is relatively young, but Fang Wanshan doesn't look at her dress very well, the little Li Ruotong is not too beautiful, she didn't appear in the list last time, for the fairy sister in later generations, this time Fang Wanshan also gave her a 4-star rating.
There is another person on the boy's side at the end, that is, Jiang Hua, known as Little Andy Lau, Fang Wanshan knows that he mainly watched his "Ninety-Five Honor", Fang Wanshan gave him a rating that is not high, 3 stars.
Wen Beixia, this time Fang Wanshan can basically be sure that it is Wen Bixia, she is young, but those eyes are unforgettable at a glance, but looking at her dress, Fang Wanshan knew that her family situation was not good, so she asked Feng Guang to give her 4 stars, and also noted the difficulties at home on the side.
What surprised Fang Wanshan the most was Ye Suqun, that is, Ye Ziang's sister, who was not yet 14 years old, but now he has a little capital, Ye Ziang has followed Fang Wanshan in recent years, and his family conditions have also improved, Fang Wanshan saw Ye Suqun dressed very fashionably, with a shawl perm and glasses, so that Fang Wanshan could vaguely feel that she was a little familiar, very similar to a third-level movie star Ye Zilin that he had seen in his later life.
Fang Wanshan just scolded a stunner in his heart, and asked Feng Guang to give her a 3-star rating.
