Chapter 615: Manifesting Your True Self
Chinese Later, after Wen Zhengchen's investigation, he finally learned the truth.
Qiu Junkun's first job in China was very good, he entered a medium-sized music company with film and TV series soundtracks as his main work content.
The first project he participated in was the post-production soundtrack of a movie, which was one of the more important works of the year, whether it was the director or the cast cast, it was a gathering of big names.
The producer and director naturally have high requirements for the soundtrack. As a newcomer, this is a great opportunity that can be met but not sought.
Of course, this kind of opportunity represents a huge amount of work.
That's the way it is in the music industry, when there are no projects, employees can die idle.
Once there is a project, the workload will increase dramatically, and overtime is a normal thing, let alone such a major project, even if you sleep in the company, it is not surprising.
This kind of thing is normal for Chinese people, and it is so normal that it is not worth mentioning.
On the 21st day of work, when his boss asked him to stay on the first overtime shift, the two parties had a quarrel over overtime pay, and the words were fierce, and then Qiu Junkun was fired on the spot.
Subsequently, with his own ability, he quickly applied for a new company, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, and he was fired again.
Something like this happened many times in a row.
A large part of the reason is that he often has disputes and even conflicts with his bosses over salary issues, resulting in frequent dismissals.
So, gradually, people in the music industry began to say that he "only recognizes money".
There is nothing wrong with saying this, Qiu Junkun himself is really concerned about overtime pay, bonuses and remuneration, and the way he cares about it is also very direct.
That is, if you don't talk about overtime pay clearly, you will never work overtime.
Overtime pay does not meet psychological expectations, and overtime will never be used.
However, there is no precedent for this at all, whether it is a major company or a studio, so the boss can only say that there is no overtime pay, or say a very small number.
Of course, it is not that Huaxia Company is stingy, but that they have their own ideas and considerations.
A certain boss kindly told Qiu Junkun that after the project is over, the company will seal a big red envelope to all employees involved in the project.
That money wants to be used as overtime pay.
As for the amount of money, it depends on the feedback effect.
If the audience has a warm attitude and the market feedback is good, the red envelope will be rich.
If the audience has a cold attitude and poor market feedback, the red envelope will be slightly thinner.
If the soundtrack can be shortlisted for a certain award, or even win an award, all the employees involved in it will get another more generous red envelope.
This kind of red envelope instead of overtime pay is equivalent to a disguised share and a reward mechanism.
This means that the company does not look at the working hours of employees, but only at the work results, and the results are good, and the rewards are naturally more.
In fact, this method is very reasonable and correct, which can improve the motivation of employees, and there will be no situation where they will make up time for overtime pay.
However, in Qiu Junkun's view, the two cannot be compared.
His contract clearly states that he works eight hours a day, and he should be paid overtime for the excess.
Why should companies pass on risk to employees?
If the work is not successful, the biggest responsibility should be the company, not the employees.
Companies know that Qiu Junkun's experience of growing up abroad makes his view of overtime different from that of domestic employees.
Most employees in European and American countries will call it a day and leave at the end of the day, and will not stay for a minute longer. If there is a job that requires overtime, they agree on the premise that there is overtime pay.
Their overtime pay is much higher than their normal salary, overtime is only counted more, not less, and the boss also needs to order food for the employees.
Qiu Junkun is under the influence of foreign countries, and he can't accept Huaxia's high-intensity work mode of working first and then getting money, and it is based on "performance" to get money!
As for Qiu Junkun's "only recognition of money", many companies can barely accept it, and will make an exception to meet his requirements and then hire him.
The reason for the exception is very simple, Qiu Junkun's work ability is outstanding, and his study experience in a well-known foreign conservatory has given him an excellent sense of musicality and arranging ability.
It's a pity that in the end, these companies still chose to dismiss Qiu Junkun.
Because, he is very disrespectful to the leader, and in the eyes of many people, he is even a little arrogant.
Sometimes, because of different understandings of music and different pursuits of texture, Qiu Junkun often debates with colleagues and even leaders.
Originally, this was normal.
However, during the debate, Qiu Junkun was very excited, even intense. Not only will he attack the other person's thoughts, all kinds of provocative, but also fierce words, often saying something that is stunning.
For example, at a regular meeting, his boss sent his work back and asked to redo it.
Qiu Junkun believes that his work is already the best, and there is no need to redo it.
He asked his boss to give him a reason, and his boss said that his work was not suitable, and Qiu Junkun thought it was very suitable.
After several arguments, Qiu Junkun was furious, and directly in front of everyone, saying that his boss had no musical literacy, and he couldn't even distinguish whether a work was a classical music genre or a neo-classical music genre, and he was not qualified to ask him to redo it at all.
At that time, the scene was so embarrassing that it was suffocating, because this boss was indeed not from a music background, and his understanding of music was not professional enough, but he was the boss!
Hehe, you actually demolished people's platforms in public?
So, Qiu Junkun was dismissed as a matter of course.
Maybe that's the case abroad, everyone is equal at work, they can express their opinions, and they can even beat up in Congress.
Perhaps, in the eyes of foreigners, Qiu Junkun is pursuing equality and showing his true self, which is worthy of praise.
However, the subtle and introverted Chinese people are completely unacceptable.
You can have your own ideas, or you can think that your boss is not good enough, but you must learn to be tactful and tactful, instead of throwing all kinds of thunderous language with a blunt bang and embarrassing everyone.
Of course, in addition to that, he has done many, many jaw-dropping things.
In the eyes of Chinese people, Qiu Junkun not only recognizes money, but also is arrogant, self-righteous, and annoying.
Until now, no company is willing to use him, because it is too bad to use him.
As a result, Qiu Junkun could only work alone, of course, with his personal ability, he also achieved certain results on his own.
After seeing Qiu Junkun's past, Wen Zhengchen originally didn't want to contact him.
However, because he was on Su Yu's list, after thinking about it for a while, Wen Zhengchen still decided to give it a try, what if he himself was different from the results of the investigation?
As a result, he found that his decision not to contact Qiu Junkun was the right one. Cat flutter Chinese
