Chapter 445: Alma Mater
Returning to the Zhongyin Academy again, Chen Yongren has a very special feeling.
"Oh, I can't think of it, I can't think of it, I can't imagine that it hasn't been long since you started your own company. Zhang Ji took Chen Yongren's hand, looked at Chen Yongren like a loving father, and said with a smile.
"Don't make fun of the students, do you?" said Chen Yongren with some embarrassment.
"Hey, I really don't know what to say about you, forget it, just don't say it. Director Zhang shook his head with a smile.
"That's right. My company will focus on video in the short term, so I'm the only artist at the moment. And the company's current financial situation does not allow us to sign more artists, plus the new company, some famous artists are also unwilling to come.
But I really can't give up on music, after all, it's my old job. So I tried to come to our school to find a few good seedlings, and the number was not too much, just a few people. When the time comes, I write songs for them, and I take them with me.
Another thing, although the company is mine, I don't have much management experience, and my mind is not in this area. So I want to come to you to see if you know some talents in this area, and I want you to help introduce them. Chen Yongren said what he thought.
"Well, it's good to have ideas, and you're on the right path. If the company's background is insufficient, it can only rely on the development of the gang.
But with so many video sites out there and little experience with it, it's not a good idea to focus on it. Zhang Ji persuaded after hearing this.
came to find students to follow Chen Yongren, he has no objection to this, everyone is a senior brother, and it is nothing to follow Chen Yongren. Besides, Chen Yongren's creative ability has conquered everyone, and now many celebrities and artists have come to them here, wanting to help contact Chen Yongren or help make an appointment for a song.
If those students had known about it, I'm afraid none of them would have refused. In short, Zhang Ji still supports music matters, but I don't understand it very well on video websites.
"The video site is just one of the company's diversification, and although the main focus will be on this aspect at present, the core of the company is music.
Please rest assured that besides, students will not be stupid enough to choose their strengths and weaknesses to develop. Chen Yongren explained.
Regarding more details, Chen Yongren has not said yet. Since Zhang Ji asked, he must have objections to this aspect, and no matter how much he talked to him, it would only be a waste of time. Of course, Chen Yongren did not mean to disrespect Zhang Ji, but whoever heard his whole plan would think he was a madman.
In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Chen Yongren still has to focus on music in a short period of time and focus on video websites. Of course, this is not a contradiction, and the two can be developed together.
"Since you've said so, then I have nothing more to say. Diversification is a good choice, but at this stage you must master this scale. As the saying goes, you can't be a fat man by eating in one go, and you still have to eat this meal slowly. Zhang Ji said.
"As for the person you are looking for, I have a suitable one here, a few years ago, he was the head of the operation department of Tianyu, and he did a good job in that position.
Therefore, I think that I have the ability, and it is better to work for others than to work for myself. I resigned and started my own company, and I made some money, but the road behind is getting more and more difficult to walk, and I am tired and tired all day long, and I earn almost the same amount as before, and I have lost a lot of capital.
A few days ago, they told me that they wanted to close the company and go back to working for people. Zhang Ji continued.
When Chen Yongren heard this person's resume, he immediately became interested. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ji has such a talent here.
What is the most fundamental reason for the failure or decline of entertainment companies? In addition to their own strength, the most important thing is the issue of strategic vision.
The failure of small companies can be said to be a matter of strength, but what about some companies that have become famous? Year by year, they are declining, and in addition to the four major companies constantly poaching people, these companies also lack some long-term strategic vision.
For the four major diggers, they can only watch the people they have worked so hard to cultivate leave.
The strategic goal of Shuguang Entertainment is to be at the helm, a person who does not need to have too long a strategic vision, as long as he can do his job well.
Although he failed to start a business, at least he has the experience of entrepreneurship and failure. For the current Dawning Entertainment, it can be said to be very suitable.
"Teacher, this person is very suitable for our company's current positioning. Can you help you get in touch? As long as it's suitable, you can talk about salary. Chen Yongren said excitedly.
What does this mean by the head of the operations department? That's the core department of a company, and the operation of the company itself is basically supported by this department. Concerts, singles, albums, commercial performances, collaborations, etc., all need to be in charge of the operation department.
To put it more simply, the company in this world is not as complicated as imagined, and there are only a few departments in it. Take the entertainment company as an example, the operation department, the artist department, the finance department, and the entire company only have these three departments.
The responsibilities are also very simple, such as the operation department, including the business team, the legal team, the personnel team and the logistics team. But don't underestimate these groups, each of them is a behemoth in small and medium-sized companies.
Take Kuyun Music's business team of the operation department has more than 60 people, some of whom are responsible for contacting business cooperation, some are responsible for contacting manufacturers, and some are responsible for contacting concerts, and each department performs its own duties and does not conflict with each other.
It can be said that the entertainment companies in this world have integrated all their departments into three major departments, which is also very convenient to work and less likely to have incidents involving each other.
Therefore, as long as the person in Zhang Ji's mouth can be pulled over, Shuguang Entertainment is equivalent to an extra arm, and Chen Yongren can do his own things more confidently.
"Okay, I'll get you in touch. I've got the materials on the table for you, so take a look at them first, and I'll call them over if it's appropriate. Zhang Ji said to Chen Yongren.
"Thank you. Chen Yongren hurriedly thanked him.
Picking up the information on Zhang Ji's desk, Chen Yongren looked at it quietly alone. Zhang Ji did not shy away from dialing the phone directly in front of Chen Yongren, and from Zhang Ji's voice, Chen Yongren also heard the result. The other party seemed a little hesitant, but still decided to come to see Chen Yongren.
Zhang Ji prepared more than a dozen materials for Chen Yongren here, and the characteristics of each of these students were clearly written. But it's hard and hard to get to know the real situation of these students on paper, it's simply impossible.
He happened to be near the school, and he agreed to meet and talk, and he would come over later. Zhang Ji first said the situation on the phone, and then continued: "How about it? These are all good seedlings, I am not willing to give other big companies to ask for people, this time let your kid take advantage." ”
"It's hard to say just by looking at the information on paper, and I have to listen to their voices to decide. Chen Yongren replied.
As the largest conservatory of music in China, Zhongyin naturally has its own strength. It is true that other large companies will keep an eye on every student in the school, and will quickly contact someone if they find signs of a new phenomenon. If possible, they will even sign directly to prevent being snatched away by other companies.
But if you want to sign someone directly in the school, it is not as easy as you imagined. Although with the strength of the capital and connections, you can sign people directly without caring about the idea of the academy.
But this is indeed a bit inappropriate, after all, it is a school, a place to cultivate talents, and it really provokes other people's schools, and it will not give you life or death in the future. If possible, they will even dare to sign your fancy student to your opponent.
Of course, there is an unwritten rule. If a company wants to sign someone in the school, it has to pay the school a fee, which is called a sponsorship fee.
Although there is no such regulation, major companies must do so if they want to grab first-hand resources. Besides, this money is not much, as little as tens of thousands or more than one or two million, which is not a problem for them at all.
