Chapter 14 Basis for Cooperation

Businessmen seek profit, to put it bluntly, what they desire is harmony and wealth. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

To put it simply, merchants don't mind cooperating with their enemies as long as they make enough profits. Of course, the premise is that this enemy is not the kind of enemy who kills his father and wife.

What Duan Xu has to do is to bind Li Wan and Ma Xiaogang by commercial means.

Because once interests are involved, it is impossible for two people to withdraw easily.

After discussing the matter of cooperation, the next step is the distribution of benefits.

Duan Xu didn't spare the circle, and said bluntly: "The entertainment company is composed of a film and television company and a music company, I cooperate with the two of them respectively, and we each occupy 50% of the equity, how about it?"

"Huh?"

Ma Xiaogang and Li Wan were puzzled for a while, not understanding what Duan Xu meant.

Duan Xu smiled: "First, our company will not be listed or financed, so equity separation is the distribution of our respective interests." Second, in order to avoid a struggle for power, I used this method to solve the problem. ”

According to him, in order to avoid the divergence of interests between Ma Xiaogang and Li Wan, he simply cooperated with them to set up a company separately, and then the two companies joined forces to form an entertainment company.

Ma Xiaogang frowned: "According to this division, wouldn't you alone occupy 50% of the company's equity?"

Even Li Wan smiled and said: "Isn't it, you little slippery head, wishful thinking is very loud." ”

Duan Xu shrugged: "This is obvious, two, if it weren't for me, do you think this entertainment company would be able to survive?"

Li Wan and Ma Xiaogang were silent, and they suddenly thought of a problem that had been completely ignored before.

If there was no Duan Xu, would they be able to run the company independently?

The answer is obvious.

No way!

There are too many entertainment companies in the capital, whether it is film and television production companies, studios set up by actors and directors themselves, and even music record companies.

So much so that several new companies are established every day, and there are also the same or even a little more companies that go out of business.

To put it bluntly, people hope to get rich overnight, but they forget that those who get rich overnight have a lot of white bones hidden behind them.

As the saying goes, if you want to get ahead in the entertainment industry, you really need to step on the shoulders and even corpses of countless people to achieve the goal.

Taking Li Wan as an example, she has invested a lot of money in music companies before and after, if she hadn't met Duan Xu, she would definitely not have been able to recover her savings over the years, let alone leave the city that never sleeps.

Even if Ma Xiaogang is not Duan Xu, he is a well-known commercial film director, and some investors are willing to invest in filming for him, but if he is blocked by Wang Shuo, no one dares to write a script for him, and the result is that he takes the money but can't spend it. Even if you can receive the script, the problem is that the quality of the script is not guaranteed, which is undoubtedly a more terrible thing for a director.

After all, fame requires strength and performance to match, if a person who claims to be a big director, there is no box office for the things he shoots one after another. Even if it is a director like the king of sunglasses, there is no market. What's more, although the king of sunglasses is a waste of time to make movies, at least he can win awards and get soft, not to mention the king of sunglasses in the later stage, he also took the initiative to make changes, and the movies made will also choose to cater to the audience's tastes and chase high box office.

Like Ma Xiaogang now, if there are not several consecutive high-grossing movies or art films to guarantee it, he will soon lose the market.

Businessmen are all about money, and the reason they respect a person is, to some extent, to see how much profit that person can provide for themselves.

To put it simply, if Ma Xiaogang can make investors make money, then no matter who he offends, it doesn't matter to investors, because in this circle, capital is the most terrible person.

But on the other hand, if Ma Xiaogang can't create enough profits for investors, then in the eyes of these investors, he Ma Xiaogang has no meaning of existence, and they won't offend a group of gold medal screenwriters because of him.

Society is so realistic, everyone's existence needs to be meaningful, once a person loses the value of being used by others, then that person is really a complete failure.

Ma Xiaogang and Li Wan glanced at each other, but neither of them spoke.

But both of them knew that what Duan Xu said was not wrong.

With a faint smile, Duan Xu said very seriously: "You all know my situation, the guarantee I can make is two excellent movies and TV series every year, as well as two high-quality music albums every year, if I can't do it, I am willing to reduce my equity." ”

After a pause, he took a deep look at Li Wan and Ma Xiaogang: "The equity I cut down, you two share it equally." ”

In any case, he would not let either Ma Xiaogang or Li Wan have more than half of the company's shares.

After all, no matter what, this is a company founded by himself, and Duan Xu doesn't want to end up being abandoned by everyone like the founders of other companies.

As long as he continues to do this, whether it is Li Wan or Ma Xiaogang, in the end, he can only choose to win himself over.

In this way, there may be some people who live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but Duan Xu has seen too many interest exchanges and betrayals in his dreams, and Duan Xu knows some weaknesses in human nature.

After listening to Duan Xu's words, Ma Xiao didn't speak for a long time, and he suddenly found that this young man often couldn't keep up with some ideas.

But even an old fritter like him has to admit that Duan Xu's approach is very good.

In other words, people really have nothing to fear.

After all, he knows better than anyone how well Duan Xu writes scripts. As long as Duan Xu is willing and guaranteed to come up with two good enough scripts every year, Ma Xiaogang can even imagine that in the next few years, he will become the most famous and best comedy director in China.

To be honest, this bait was too big for Ma Xiaogang, so big that he couldn't control his thoughts, and finally nodded and said to Duan Xu: "Okay, I have no opinion." ”

"Sister Wan, what about you?" Duan Xu looked at Li Wan after hearing Ma Xiaogang's words.

A tangled expression flashed on Li Wan's face, it seemed obvious that she felt a little unwilling, after all, the situation of the music company was different from that of the film and television company, and more importantly, she felt that a good song could make a singer.

Could it be that Duan Xu can still write any good songs?
