Chapter 465: New Moves of the Company
PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket, ask for a monthly pass!
"Ding-hu~"
Oil-headed trench coat with short legs and pointed scalp shoes, Jiang Ershao tossed black and gold Givenchy cigar cutters back and forth with his thumb and middle finger, and a short cigar proportional to his height was obliquely held on his oily mouth with anti-cleft lipstick.
If you want a trench coat that doesn't cover your feet, only the European version of the pointed hood.
The two pointed ends are pointed and pointed, and they can't reach the coffee table!
"Are you really willing to give up Wang Jiawei's piece of jade? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wang Jiawei has a lot of potential? Are you really willing to let go?"
Jiang Er's expression was rich, and he raised his eyebrows and tilted his head to look at Wu Xiaozu who was trimming the cigar head, his face full of puzzlement.
Letting go of a cash cow so easily is not in line with Wu Xiaozu's character!
"Lovers can break up, it's not normal for company employees to leave ......"
Wu Xiaozu smiled and took a cigarette lighter to bake, wrapped in a cigar in a small sip, and said in a vague voice: "It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married, what can I do?"
"Sister Jiahua, what are the thoughts of the rest of the company?" turned his head to look at Jiang Jiahua, who was wearing a professional outfit.
He was not afraid of Wang Jiawei leaving, but he was afraid that Wang Jiawei's departure would shake the minds of some people in the company. But fortunately, Wu Xiaozu has always been bold and generous to his subordinates. Liu Weiqiang is now a very important director of the company, and the director's salary for each play is higher than the other.
"It's pretty stable. But there will always be gossip. ”
Jiang Jiahua said lightly, "Wang Jiawei's departure is not without benefits. Recently, many young people's resumes have been piled up on my desk. The company is also desperately trying to catch up with the script...... But—"
After speaking, he glanced at Wu Xiaozu, "Your state is indeed a bit abnormal." "Mong Kok Carmen" has a box office of more than 2 million today. Tens of millions of box office is not a problem, this kind of big-money movie, don't you care about it?"
"Huh...... Wang Jiawei is a director with his own ideas. ”
Wu Xiaozu nodded his temples, "There are a lot of things to think about here, and I have my own fixed thinking mode. This "Mong Kok Carmen" I have suppressed the small universe in his heart. In the ...... of suppression It's easy to explode!"
Being a drama bully?
He was afraid that he didn't wait for Liang Chaowei to go to London to feed the pigeons, Wang Jiawei went to London to feed the pigeons first. For this kind of nuclear-weapon-level figure, the key is installed by himself, and the warhead is better left to others.
Jiang Ershao and Jiang Jiahua nodded thoughtfully. They are not stupid, and through the feedback from the crew, they naturally know Wu Xiaozu's "domineering" in this play. The two didn't dwell too much on this issue.
…
"The Suspect" was a big hit at the Wanwan box office, and now it has sold 21 million at the box office! It temporarily ranks first among Chinese films, and the overall film list is also in the top three.
For the time being, it is second only to Hollywood's "Fatal Attraction" and "The Devil Sends God".
Last year, "Two Heroes" won the best result of Chinese films in Wanwan, only losing to "007: Dawn Vitality" and "Field Platoon", and the gap is very small. This time, "Suspect" has a good chance to become a box office dark horse!" Jiang Jiahua was dressed in professional clothes and analyzed with a serious expression.
Many people say that Hong Kong films were known as "Oriental Hollywood" before "Jurassic Park", but in fact, they are more or less well set off by their peers. Even in Cangwanwan, the largest box office for Hong Kong films, Hong Kong films have never won the box office champion.
In 1987, the 30.8 million of "Two Heroes" was the first time that a Chinese film crossed the 30 million mark.
By the end of 1987, there were more than 23 movies with a box office of more than 30 million, all of which were Hollywood movies. "The True Color of Heroes", "Police Story", and "Lucky Star" series have not reached the height of 30 million.
"Two Heroes" is a one-of-a-kind !!
This is also the main reason why Wu Xiaozu is so 'good' in the Wanwan area, and it is also the root of his Golden Horse Award.
The light of the Chinese, is it a joke??
"Two Heroes" is the only Chinese-language film to enter the top 20 at the box office! After that, "Food Truck" has 24 million and "Plan A 1" has 23 million! It ranks 38th and 41st respectively.
Wanwan Chinese film box office record, Hong Kong Island box office record, Korean Chinese film box office record, Southeast Asia Chinese film box office record...... This is the reason why the 1024 locomotive makes Southeast Asian film companies flock to it!
"The Suspect" also broke the box office record of Wanwan Chinese literary and artistic films, and it also broke the Hong Kong Island literary film record before.
Documenting this kind of thing, really...... Wu Xiaozu himself looked at it and swelled!
However, in the final analysis, Hong Kong films still can't stand up to Hollywood on their own, and they can't even be considered Hollywood's opponents. Some people will think when they see this, look at it, Hong Kong films are blowing badly, but Mushroom Liang said that Hong Kong films were not Hollywood's opponents at all!
However, you must know that at that time, in the world film industry, Hong Kong films can say that who is better than me? In addition to Hong Kong films, films from other regions are even more powerless in the face of Hollywood!
The little black fat man said: The peers set off well!
Looking at it without bragging or derogatory, Hong Kong films at that time were still the pinnacle of Chinese films, even if they included future generations. At that time, Hong Kong films could be distributed to various countries in Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States, and there were fans all over the world.
The influence is world-class!
This is the goal that Chinese films are still striving for in later generations!
At least in the world, kung fu stars such as Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Hong Jinbao, Michelle Yeoh and many creative personnel have been exported, allowing the world to know Chinese people and Chinese culture.
"The Little Man's Weekly Tale has been made into a radio drama and broadcast on the radio, and the response has been very good. This Chen Jiachou is really a talent. ”
Jiang Ershao said with a smile, "I listen to Ah Dan's radio drama every day, and his role as Ah Kuan is so interesting." I've heard that he has a heart for bringing the story to the screen?"
"Little Man Weekly" is a script written by Chen Jiachou and the screenwriter together, before that, through Jiang Jiahua's relationship, it was recorded on the radio and became a radio drama, and through Zheng Danrui's interpretation, it was very popular among office workers on Hong Kong Island. It can be regarded as a valuable IP.
In the previous life, this series shot several movies, proving that this low-cost IP made money!
Naturally, 1024 Locomotive Films will not miss such a small-budget project.
Especially now that a lot of hot money is keen to invest in the 1024 locomotive.
Financing: This is the main channel for film production.
"I've asked Longhair to help with the film adaptation. ”
Wu Xiaozu said seriously, "In the first half of the year, the company's confirmed investment projects include "Gambling God", "Little Man Weekly", "Crazy Boy 4" and Ah Cheng's "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty II Sun and Moon in the Sky: Empress Mei Niang", "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty III Concubine Drunk: Daughter-in-law Yang Yuhuan".
The production of the latter two films was handed over to Jianghu Emergency Film Company, and we served as one of the producers and distributors. The financing of "God of Gamblers" has been completed. The cast arrangement of "Little Man Weekly" is confirmed, so that he and "Crazy Boy 4" can raise funds together......"
"Boss Wu!"
Jiang Jiahua suddenly interrupted Wu Xiaozu's words.
"On the company's side, there will soon be the release of "Dream Back to the Tang Dynasty 1", and the release arrangement of "Crazy Boy 3". Then there is the tracking of the profit share of the tapes and market surveillance. The film project establishment and financing of "Little Man Weekly" are also on the agenda......"
"I also have to pay attention to the progress of the accounting for the filming of your "God of Gamblers", and then the financing project of "Crazy Boy 4" is also imminent!
With such a large amount of work, I have already caught up with Xinyicheng and Jiahe! Every day, the documents on my desk are piled up!"
Jiang Jiahua said it all in one breath, and glared at Wu Xiaozu with dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Boss Wu, I can't even take annual leave! I'm going to be in the office on a date with Ah Hui!"
"Ahem......"
Jiang Erxiao looked at the embarrassed Wu Xiaozu and coughed dryly to hide his smile.
"The company now needs to expand its office staff, especially managers. I'm not very good at making films, otherwise you'd be a great director, harder?"
Listening to Jiang Jiahua's complaints, Wu Xiaozu laughed weakly.
(⊙o⊙)…… It seems that Liang Xiaokou is really not good!
Eat the shortest ...... What's more, Liang Xiaokou has even soaked wolfberries recently, and it is clear that he wants a baby, and he is indeed a little delayed in making people.
But......
Working so hard, why is Jiang Jiahua still so angry, he is very suspicious of Liang Xiaokou's strength.
I thought that I would let Fei Cheng come back and lead Liang Xiaokou to see the old Chinese medicine doctor! Let him eat leek pie after breakfast, dog whip soup for Chinese food, civet stew and snake whip for dinner, and some big waist for supper.
"Let's hire some more staff. I think it shouldn't be difficult to recruit talent with the current fame of 1024. ”
Wu Xiaozu rubbed his forehead, "By the way, if you have a good candidate, you can also recommend it to me." The company does need some people who understand both production and management. ”
"I really have a few resumes on my side. Jiang Jiahua didn't wait for Wu Xiaozu's words to fall, took out a stack of resumes, and handed them to Wu Xiaozu.
"I think the three people at the front fit the company's requirements perfectly!"
Wu Xiaozu took the resume, looked at the first three copies, looked back at Jiang Jiahua with a different expression, and asked uncertainly, "Are you sure about these three people?"
"The first one recently expired his contract with Debao and is unlikely to be renewed. We can all see that Pan Disheng does not want to show his strength in the distribution, but just uses Debao as a platform to make money and praise his girlfriend.
The second one is a very good friend with me, and now I happen to be at home, and I am 70% sure!
Third place......"
Jiang Jiahua looked up at Jiang Zhiqiang.
“??”
Jiang Ershao looked at Wu Xiaozu and Jiang Jiahua in surprise, was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "You won't say it's me, right?"
"I officially invite you to be the manager of the production department!" Wu Xiaozu said with a smile.
"Wait a minute, I thought I had been the manager of the production department......" Jiang Ershao said a little dumbfounded, "What do you mean by being official now?"
"Ahem......"
Jiang Jiahua coughed and muttered, "You didn't have a salary before." ”
“……”
“……”
Wu Xiaozu and Jiang Zhiqiang glanced at each other, and Jiang Ershao went crazy directly.
After the establishment of the Xinbao Cinema Line, Antai's cinema was merged into it. My eldest brother has been in charge of the selection and investment of some Western films! I will take some money out to invest at most......
My special business card has long been reprinted with the title of '1024 Production Manager'!
"There are option rewards...... Wu Xiaozu wiped his face calmly.
"Mr. Wu!" Jiang Ershao changed quickly.
"Le Yiling is looking for a job now, and I think she should be interested in 1024. ”
Jiang Jiahua smiled and said, "She has been an assistant director, producer, producer of a TV station, and has also managed artists. As for film production, I am now doing film planning for many companies, I think as long as she is given a platform, she will definitely be interested!
Le Yiling is famous in later generations, and everyone knows the TVB housekeeper, and the sentence "Miss Le" is really sharp.
However, at this time, Le Yiling did not join TVB, but did film planning in the film industry. This is the management talent that 1024 locomotive urgently needs.
As for Zhang Jiazhen!
Even more significant than Le Yiling for the 1024 locomotive.
At this time, he was the manager of the distribution department of Debao, and he had a lot of contacts and experience in distribution. understands production, supervision, and distribution, which is definitely the talent that Wu Xiaozu needs most.
At the same time, he also had a very good relationship with Wu Xiaozu, and he was also very optimistic about Wu Xiaozu at the beginning. Contributed to the release of the 1024 Locomotive film by Devo.
"Okay, I'll make an appointment with Brother Zhen. Wu Xiaozu responded quickly.
As the 1024 locomotive has slowly matured from Wu Xiaozu's standout to now, the company also needs to introduce more management talents.
"Since the company has expanded, let's change the venue. It's not too convenient here after all. Wu Xiaozu added.
"No problem, leave this matter to me!" Jiang Ershao responded with a smile.
This is the beginning of 1024 locomotive from "handicraft workshop" to "corporatization"!
