Chapter 968: Dream Plan (Second Update)

Although the rumors did not have a big impact on Oriental DreamWorks, they actually affected some aspects of the company to some extent.

At least some directors who want to work with the company, or who want to pitch scripts to the company, are discouraged.

After all, the background of Oriental DreamWorks is too shallow, and in terms of popularity, it cannot be compared with those giant companies at all.

Yang Ming frowned and listened to Liu Xinsheng's analysis, and also felt that this problem was very serious.

The resources of his previous life will always be used up one day, and if there is no replenishment of fresh blood, then the decline of Oriental DreamWorks is doomed.

Before the resources of the previous life are exhausted, the company must not only have an endless stream of hematopoietic functions, but also have a certain advantage and voice in the world film industry.

He had a decision in his heart.

At present, all the scripts of the directors in the company are copied by him from the memories of his previous life, and this form is absolutely impossible to last long, and it is no wonder that the outside world describes Oriental DreamWorks as Yang Ming's company.

Without his script, the name Oriental DreamWorks would be worthless.

In this regard, Barber handled it much better than Liu Xinsheng, the old man used the script given by Yang Ming in Hollywood to steadily obtain box office results and ensure the interests of the company, and at the same time excavated new directors who were not met in Hollywood.

Last year, I invested in two small-budget films, one of which was able to recover its cost, and the other did not even recover the money for filming.

But Barber will continue to expand this model next year, and Yang Ming has no objection to this.

On the contrary, he felt that he could copy this model to China, which could not only start the fame of Oriental DreamWorks, but also win the reputation of supporting newcomers for the company to a certain extent.

Thinking of this, Yang Ming touched his chin, knocked on the table with one hand, and said thoughtfully: "In this way, next year, our company will launch a 'dream director plan', as long as the script passes our review, you can get our company's investment!"

When Liu Xinsheng heard Yang Ming's idea, his eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and then he also thought of some questions: "Mr. Yang, is there a limit to the investment cost of this single movie?"

Yang Ming thought carefully for a while, and after considering the gains and losses, he said slowly: "There is no cap, as long as it is an excellent script, our investment is not capped, but once the investment cost exceeds 10 million, then the director must give a detailed shooting plan!"

The investment cost does not exceed 10 million, for Yang Ming, he can afford to lose, even if the box office is unfavorable, in case he wins an award or something, for Oriental DreamWorks, there is also an honorary gain, and the investment is not a waste.

But if the investment exceeds 10 million, then the company must seriously consider the commercialization of this film.

If you meet the kind of inexperienced rookie directors, maybe they have amazing creative ideas in their minds, but they don't have much shooting experience, and there will definitely be deficiencies in the control of the crew, so the company must send people into the crew.

In fact, this is also inevitable, in the film industry, either the investor acts as a producer, or the distributor.

And now that Oriental DreamWorks is a combination of distribution and investment, it is natural to have the right to speak in the crew, and it has nothing to do with domineering, this is the rule of the film industry.

Of course, Yang Ming will also give new directors the most space in this regard, so that they can play.

If you want to get absolute freedom, it is impossible to do it in the film circles at home and abroad.

The 'Dream Director Plan' is just an idea put forward by Yang Ming, and it still needs Liu Xinsheng to form a mature plan for Yang Ming to see after they have studied and perfected.

The boss moved his mouth and broke his leg below.

At this time, Yang Ming also began to enjoy this treatment.

Not long after he left the company, Oriental DreamWorks suddenly became very lively, and many usually lively employees cheered: Long live Mr. Yang!

Obviously, Liu Xinsheng leaked Yang Ming's decision about this year's year-end rewards.

After Yang Ming left the company, he was driving on the road, still thinking about the 'Dream Director Plan' that he had just proposed, and felt that it was necessary for him to start a similar campus support plan at his alma mater.

With a two-pronged approach, as long as some of these directors who have been supported by Oriental DreamWorks grow up, then Oriental DreamWorks' hematopoiesis will not be a problem.

Moreover, the old dean has done so much for him, he always can't think of a way to reciprocate, and now this campus support plan can be regarded as a win-win plan for both parties.

Along the way, he was thinking about this problem, and he also had some mature ideas in his mind, and he was ready to go back and discuss it with the old dean.

Drove to a clubhouse, parked the car, and after entering the door, Yang Ming dialed a phone, asked a few words, and came to a room to open the door.

"I didn't expect you to arrive so early!"

In the room, He Huan and Zhang Jianbai were talking and laughing.

When He Huan saw Yang Ming coming in, he quipped: "The two of us are poor singers, nothing else, there is more time!"

Zhang Jianbai heard He Huan's words on the side, and shook his head a little speechlessly, this He Huan has never been able to change this bandit temper, but his character is quite suitable for being friends, he is righteous, and he never hides himself, making people feel his straightforwardness and sincerity.

Yang Ming also knew that He Huan was making fun of himself, and he couldn't cry or laugh when he was made by the other party.

He sat down, unceremoniously poured himself a cup of tea, and asked, "What's the big deal with calling me over today? Could it be that the two of you want to jump to our Dongfang Huayin? If that's the case, I raise my hands to welcome." ”

Hearing Yang Ming's words, He Huan gave him a roll of his eyes.

Superstar singers like him and Zhang Jianbai are naturally the pillars of various record companies, how can they dig and dig, and they have been cooperating for so many years, it is impossible to leave as soon as they say, and there are too many interests involved.

It's just that with the shrinking of the record industry, various record companies have been willing to reduce the brokerage contracts with their singers.

Zhang Jianbai may be a little better, Huaxia Brothers Media is also a giant in the entertainment industry after all, he has his back to the big tree to enjoy the shade, and it is impossible for Huaxia Brothers Media to have an unpleasant quarrel with its influential singers for a little petty favor.

But He Huan is a bit dangerous in this regard, his signing company is not a giant, but when he debuted, this record company tapped him, and later the brokerage contract with He Huan was not bad, so many years, He Huan never thought of changing the record company.

Zhang Jianbai smiled slightly, didn't take Yang Ming's jokes to heart, he said sincerely: "To be honest, at dinner the night before yesterday, you said that the record industry would shrink day by day and eventually be replaced. ”
