In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", after Cao Cao broke Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao's three sons, Yuan Tan, Yuan Shang, and Yuan Xi, were in a state of infighting and infighting. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Cao took the opportunity to divide and annihilate, Yuan Tan was destroyed, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi fled to Sun Kang, the Taishou Gong of Liaodong, to take refuge.

Cao Cao accepted the advice of the strategist Guo Jiazhi, and did not lead his army to trek long distances to attack Liaodong, but waited for the changes and sat on the mountain to watch the tiger fight.

Sure enough, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi seized power, and later had an internal fight with Gongsun Kang, were beheaded by him, and dedicated their heads to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao did not spend a bow and arrow, one man and one horse, swept away the enemy, pacified Liaodong, and consolidated his rear.

The current situation in the Hong Kong film industry is similar to that of the Three Kingdoms.

Jiahe and Xinyicheng are wealthy, conquering cities and expanding vigorously, chasing and beating those stars and directors for Cao Cao.

film companies, theaters, and star directors are Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi, and Gongsun Kang. They are small and have little money, and they are united by the pressure of the outside world.

If Golden Harvest and New Arts City suspend their expansion and lose the pressure from the outside world, the loose alliance of film companies, movie theaters, stars, and directors will inevitably disintegrate.

The reason is simple. There is a conflict of interest between film companies, movie theaters, stars, and directors.

As a film company, of course, I hope that the lower the salary of stars and directors, the better, and the higher the share from the theater, the better.

Of course, stars and directors hope that their salaries are as high as possible, while theaters hope that they can get a little more box office share.

The contradictions between the three parties are already difficult to reconcile. Not to mention that the three parties are not a whole, but are composed of many individuals.

Each individual has its own demands.

For example, there are more than a dozen film companies, each of which hopes to invite stars with box office appeal and hopes to show their own movies in popular schedules...... In this way, there will inevitably be competition.

And who among the stars and directors is not willing to participate in the production of blockbusters and good films, but the number of blockbusters and good films is limited after all. Therefore, when there are too many monks and too little porridge, it is inevitable that they will grab scripts and roles, and compete with each other.

In addition, the theater side is also composed of many small and medium-sized theater owners, and their competition is also fierce. Because a film is limited by cost, there is a limit to the number of copies that can be printed.

And there are so many small and medium-sized theaters, and when the new film is launched, who will be released first and who will be released later will inevitably have to fight.

So the internal contradictions between them are also very intense.

If Golden Harvest and Xinyicheng desperately put pressure on them and make them feel an existential crisis, they will temporarily put aside their grievances, unite and unite with the outside world.

But once Jiahe and Xinyicheng suspend the suppression, they lose external pressure, and the infighting between them will collapse their alliance.

When the time comes, we will take the opportunity to divide and annihilate them, and we can wipe them out.

This is the advice Guo Jia gave to Cao Cao, "If you are in a hurry, you will hold on to each other, and then you will fight." “

Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia are not stupid, they were so little provoked by the summer, and they all suddenly realized it.

"Oh, why didn't we think of this before?" Zou Wenhuai patted his forehead and said.

Mai Jia also looked at Xia with admiration, but she didn't expect him to be so smart at such a young age, which is really amazing.

"The two of them are fans of the authorities, and I am a bystander. Xia smiled modestly, "In my opinion, the two of them have grown a lot recently, so it is better to postpone the expansion and consolidate the rear first, so as not to suffer from indigestion and a fire in the backyard." “

"Makes sense. Mai Jia and Zou Wenhuai both nodded.

These days, they are waving money, signing a lot of people, and buying several theaters.

But signing someone and buying a theater doesn't mean that it's safe and sound.

Now that there is such a fierce commotion outside, the people in the company will inevitably be affected. I am worried that after signing this long-term contract, I will sell myself into slavery.

In this mood, who has the energy to work hard?

In addition, those acquired theaters may not be of the same mind as them, and they have to be rectified.

"Come, tea, tea. Summer said with a smile.

"Please!"

"Please!"

Mai Jia and Zou Wenhuai got the guidance of summer, and they were also suddenly opened, victory was in sight, and they naturally felt better, and they smiled and drank tea with summer.

……

"Mr. Mai, Mr. Zou, I have a little immature suggestion I want to say, it's up to you to listen to it or not. Summer put down the teacup and said with a smile again.

"Mr. Xia, please speak!" Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia both put down their teacups and listened attentively.

After listening to Summer's good idea just now, now neither of them dares to underestimate Summer's wisdom.

"I suggest that when you invest in filming, you and your employees adopt a salary plus dividend model. Summer smiled slightly.

"Salary plus dividends?" Mai Jia and Zou Wenhuai were stunned, "Mr. Xia, is this the system that your company is implementing now?"

"Not bad. Summer nodded, "Our company's salary is not high, but if you add dividends, it can reach a million." So although our company has signed long-term contracts, no star feels uncomfortable. “

"That's right!" Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia both nodded with a smile.

In the summer, Tianxia Pictures implemented a long-term contract, but people signed so many stars, and they were not as embarrassed as they were.

"On the one hand, the salary plus dividends reduces the cost of filming.

No matter how big the star was before, even if it was Cheng Long, it was only a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars. Now the second-tier stars are all at this price, and the first-tier stars are even more than one million.

In this way, if there are three or four stars in a play, the salary is enough to make a movie.

The salary of celebrities has risen so fast, of course, it is not a good thing for us. However, if you force the salaries of stars, I am afraid that it will also cause them to rebound.

When the time comes, one shot and two scattered, that is the end of a lose-lose situation. Am I right?" Summer explained.

Mai Jia and Zou Wenhuai both nodded.

They are producers, and of course they hope that the lower the star's salary, the better. However, of course, celebrities don't want to be bullied, if the salary is too low, people will boycott the show directly, or when the time comes, they will act indiscriminately, and everyone will have a hard time.

"Then if part of the salary is converted into dividends, it will solve the problem of both parties.

The star's salary has decreased, and the cost of filming has decreased.

With the same funds, you can only make two movies before, but now you can make three movies, and the utilization rate of funds has increased, which naturally makes you more profitable.

And the cost is reduced, the risk is reduced, and it is also good for the film company.

And the star's salary is converted to dividends, which seems to be less profitable, but it is different with dividends.

Now movies make money, and these stars are not stupid, and they also know which one makes more money.

Let them reduce their salary for dividends, and they must be happy.

And if the star participates in the dividends, he will be more attentive when shooting movies. Otherwise, the box office will be dismal, and he himself will suffer.

Therefore, the salary and dividends are more than one stone, do you think this is a good suggestion?" said Summer.

When Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia heard this, they also smiled and nodded.

"Mr. Xia, you are still smart. Both sighed.

How could they not have thought of such a good system before?

"Hey, it's not that I'm smart. I didn't create this system, Hollywood already had it. Summer waved her hand and smiled.

"Then why didn't anyone do this before?" asked Zou Wenhuai suspiciously.

"That's not because Hong Kong filmmakers are too smart. is filming seriously, and the salary is still trying not to be paid in full. If it is changed to a salary and dividends, who can expect the dividends to be in place in time!" Summer pouted.

Hong Kong film companies have a habit of defaulting on their salaries. I won't mention the leather bag company, there are mostly liars, so don't expect to get paid enough for filming for them.

And even large companies are not clean. Golden Harvest is also in arrears, and the promised dividends have never been paid. In the end, it broke up unhappily, and the guest and host became enemies.

The so-called people do not believe in it, and they do not stand up! Film companies do not pay attention to credibility, so how can they win the trust of stars and directors.

And without the most basic trust, this system that is beneficial to both parties will naturally not be implemented.

Therefore, there are gains and losses. Some things, which seem to be smart and take advantage, actually damage their own credibility and outweigh the losses.

The reason why Hollywood has been able to implement this system is that the laws of other people have been perfected, which has put an end to the possibility of film companies cheating and cheating, and second, the trade unions of all walks of life in Hollywood are strong and can uphold justice for stars, directors, and screenwriters.

But neither the unions nor the law can interfere in the summer.

The only thing he can do is to clean himself up, set an example, and by the way, persuade Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia to learn from him, be a city gate standing wood, and be a person who believes in his word.

Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia turned pale when they heard Xia say this. To be honest, they have also defaulted on actors' salaries before. According to Summer, they are also quite unkind.

"In the past, there were many small companies in Hong Kong, and they had no credibility at all, which broke everyone's hearts and made the environment of the Hong Kong film industry stink.

Now there are only three of us left in the Hong Kong film industry. The three of us have a lot of money, so of course we don't have to play those little tricks. So I think this system should not be difficult to implement. Summer laughed.

Although he knew that Jiahe and Xinyicheng were also in arrears, they were now allies, and in front of them, of course, they couldn't directly denounce them, they could only stop at the point.

Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia are both smart, so it shouldn't be difficult to make a choice.

It is greedy for temporary profits, offending its employees, and everyone breaks up, or being kind, and sharing profits with its employees to achieve a win-win situation. Trust that they will make their own choice.

Zou Wenhuai and Mai Jia were originally a little worried, because they also did some bad things between them, so they implemented the strategy of salary and dividends, and the employees would not buy it.

After all, I have broken people's hearts before, and it is not easy to win their trust.

But listening to Summer's words, they suddenly had a little more confidence.
