Chapter 0502 - Superstar Pictures Headquarters at a Glance

Continuing from above,

After Li Wenxing received Fang Yihua and his party who came to the company for inspection at the front desk of the hall as scheduled, the two sides first introduced themselves, and then began to sightsee.

As mentioned earlier, the building where Superstar Pictures is located is actually a property in Mei Yuzhen's name.

Since she started in November last year, she has started the intense renovation work.

And the renovation cost of the building was paid by Li Wenxing himself, and he also had to pay Mei Yuzhen rent on time every month.

The renovation project of the entire building could not be completed until Li Wenxing came over.

The exterior decoration of the building is not mentioned for the time being, and there is nothing to mention, it is nothing more than to repaint the walls.

Then spray paint some artistic pictures on it, such as the art version of the projector picture, to improve the frame.

The interior decoration of the building is even more artistic.

For example, in the hall on the first floor, when people enter the door, they can look up to see several Gothic crystal lamps on the ceiling, and at the same time, they can see the floor painted with paintings in the style of Malevich and Mondrian.

Although Li Wenxing didn't know who these two were at all, when he accepted the project at that time, he hurriedly sent away the boss of the decoration company who was full of words.

When everyone came to the front desk of the hall, they saw a row of simple and elegant counters, and behind the counters were four beautiful receptionists, all of whom were young and beautiful, which was stunning.

No way, the most important thing in Hollywood is beautiful girls, and every year there are countless beautiful girl dramas with star dreams and floating across the sea from all over the world, hoping to become the next screen darling.

However, the reality is cruel, most of them have gradually drifted with the flow, and they have fallen silent, and there are very few who can stay and stick to their dreams, and even fewer can succeed in the end, even in single digits.

Take the four beautiful girls standing at the front desk of the superstar company at this time as an example, they are from Germany, France, Treasure Island, and Japan Island.

This is also what Li Wenxing deliberately did when presiding over the recruitment work, not to mention the grandeur of a large company, look, the front desk of the company alone is four receptionists.

And in terms of affordability,

Simply gathering girls from these four regions as receptionists is enough to meet all the guests who come to visit (communication needs), which is the job of the front desk.

Superstar needs to pay them a salary of $12 a day and a dormitory in the three-story annex building on the right outside.

Other than that, there are no benefits, bonuses.

This is much cheaper than hiring a translator who can speak Japanese, Chinese, German, and English at the same time.

But although the salary for this position is not high, almost stepping on the minimum standard of the statutory salary, there are still many applicants, which makes Li Wenxing dazzled.

Not to mention that the work is easy, the girls have almost nothing to do, leaving them a lot of rich time, and after work, they can also go to do some part-time jobs, and the comprehensive income will definitely not be less.

The main thing is that this is the place closest to their dreams.

It doesn't take too much, as long as one day, the bosses, directors, screenwriters, agents, and even photographers and drama managers who come and go in this building take a look at it more.

Then, after obtaining an audition qualification, and even a role in a dragon set, a role outside the female five, female third, female second, and female first, they are close to success, at least taking the first step.

The building near the water gets the moon first, and even if you want to take the initiative to send it to the door to be in front of others, and then take advantage of it to get on the throne,

That's why it's easier for girls standing here to succeed, and girls outside don't have a chance to get close to these people.

Off track, back to the point.

Directly opposite the front desk of the hall, there is a rest area that covers a large area, in which all kinds of sofas and round tables are located in a good style.

Behind it is a semi-fan-shaped screen with hollow carving, and behind the screen is a large exhibition hall.

Walking into the exhibition hall, everyone even saw a few antique grandfather cars here, looking at the production date on the introduction board, it was actually a product of the end of the last century,

There are also many imitations of antique armor, weapons, wax figures, as well as some simple and elegant utensils, ornaments, clothing, etc., just like a museum.

The inspectors from Xiangjiang were directly shocked, just because the exhibits in front of them were all full of artistic atmosphere, and the compulsion was really high.

After visiting the hall on the first floor, everyone walked up the stairs to the second floor.

The second floor is the staff leisure area, restaurants, bars, fitness rooms, yoga studios, indoor sports fields, swimming pools, movie viewing rooms, open recording studios, etc.

The word leisure has almost been taken to the extreme, and the employees who work here are really happy.

Continue upstairs, the third floor is where Superstar Records is located, various renovated recording studios, performance rooms, training rooms,

Because this branch has not been officially established, it is still empty, and there are only a few employees guarding the equipment, all of whom are stationed by the security guards of Xiangjiang Xinghua.

Go straight to the fourth floor, the fourth floor is reserved for Star Play, Star Language, Star Entertainment, and Star Media to open branches here in the future, but they are all still empty.

Go up to the fifth floor, and the fifth floor is where the Innovation Star, which is the office of CAA.

Of course, with the current scale of CAA, it cannot occupy such a large area, so most of the office area is still empty.

In fact, the finances and operations of Innovation Star are independent of Superstar Pictures, and cannot be regarded as a subsidiary of Superstar Pictures.

The reason why Li Wenxing brought Chuangxin over was just to gather popularity, and even took the initiative to reduce ninety percent of the rent of Chuangxin Star.

The building is really space, empty like a ghost building, and Li Wenxing is unwilling to rent it out.

Superstar Pictures is about to grow, and office space may soon run out.

After visiting the fifth floor, in fact, there is nothing to visit, today is Saturday, and there are only two employees on duty on the innovative side, responsible for answering the phone.

Others are either on vacation or running business outside, and how can a qualified celebrity agent really sit in the office?

Continue up to the sixth floor,

The sixth floor is more lively, and it is currently recruiting all kinds of filmmaking-related talents.

Director, screenwriter, cameraman, prop master, makeup artist, lighting engineer, etc., all the types of work involved in filming movies are lacking on the side of Superstar Pictures.

Although the company's current tentative plan is to make a film with Shaw Brothers, Superstar Pictures will pay for it, and Shaw Brothers will come out of the venue, but after all, it can't all count on Shaw Brothers' side.

If the cooperation is not negotiated, the filming plan cannot be directly shelved, and even if the cooperation is negotiated, the strength of the Shaw Brothers production team will still not meet the requirements of making a blockbuster.

The creative team of Shaw Brothers can be said to have been limited by the 'big studio system and small production work', and without that kind of wild imagination, it is impossible to make that kind of grand, passionate, and fast-paced cool blockbuster.

This is not only the lack of creative concepts and understanding, but also the lack of their hard power, and the business ability of each type of work is far from the first-class level that the same type of work in Hollywood can achieve at present.

However, it is also undeniable that the Shaw Brothers also have their advantages, and even in some ways, Hollywood filmmakers are far behind.

This is the real reason why Li Wenxing wants to co-make a film, just to be able to absorb the strengths of the two companies and make a movie that can sell at the box office with the existing conditions.
