Chapter 134: Entering the film and television industry
In addition to the recording business, another busy focus of Zhang Fan's company recently is to build the company's film and television production department.
The biggest interest cake of the entire entertainment industry lies in film and television, which is the most profitable place and the most famous place. Almost all companies related to the entertainment industry want to put their hands into this industry, and Zhang Fan is naturally no exception.
In addition to wanting to enter the film and television industry to make money, Zhang Fan also wants to use this platform to enhance his reputation.
Compared with other aspects, the best way to enhance your reputation in the entertainment industry is to appear in various film and television dramas.
Zhang Fan needs to use these film and television dramas to enhance his fame and then convert them into system points. With these system points, Zhang Fan will be able to buy more things and then issue them to earn more points, and at the same time, the income as an add-on will be equally lucrative. This is a kind of cycle, a cycle that Zhang Fan likes very much.
If you have fame, you can have points, and with points, you can buy various works for distribution, and after the work is released, you will create fame again. These are the things Zhang Fan wants to do.
There are many practitioners in the film and television industry, after all, the most important thing in Huaxia at this time is talent. And many of the unemployed are not much less capable than those who are employed, but they are not given the opportunity to work for one reason or another. In addition, Zhang Fan recruited people this time and offered a very high salary, even those who already had a company were moved and wanted to switch over.
After Zhang Fan's company advertised for recruitment, a tide of people came to apply.
"How's the hiring going?" After the day's song recording, Zhang Fan, who was about to go home, passed by Chen Guozhong's office and found that the lights were still on, and asked with a smile after pushing the door in.
Chen Guozhong is now the director of the company's production department. He has a wide network in the circle and has been a producer for many years, so he is the most suitable person for the field.
"There are too many people." Chen Guozhong got up to make tea for Zhang Fan, "Many people who have heard it before have come to apply for the job this time, and I am also very surprised." ”
"The salary we offer is very high, which will naturally touch the hearts of many people." Zhang Fan sat down on the sofa, his words full of confidence.
The real dominance of this industry is the investors and the leaders of TV stations, or the directors and some big-name screenwriters. Most of the other practitioners are not treated as well as the outside world thinks. And the work in the film and television industry is very hard, and long-term business trips and overtime work day and night are commonplace.
Another point is that there is a lot of liquidity in this industry. Very few people can do something for a lifetime in a company or a TV station. Of course, this refers to the real technicians, not the leaders.
Therefore, when Zhang Fan's company offered twice the average price of the market to recruit people, even many people who were still working in other companies were tempted to apply.
At the end of the day, everyone works hard to make money.
As for loyalty to the company and the so-called corporate culture or something, how much is that worth to those and those who have been polished out by social life? Is it enough for a boxed lunch?
Many companies engage in corporate culture and try to brainwash employees through propaganda to make them do cattle and horses for the development of the company. All kinds of bright prospects and all kinds of promises seem to be full of flowers, but what the real reality will look like, Zhang Fan knows very clearly.
The reality is that the boss treats you as a shoecloth, take it and wipe it when you use it, and throw it away when you don't use it. The boss eats and drinks outside, drives a good car and lives in a mansion, where will he remember those employees when he is a little star!
Except for those young people who have just left school, they may be fooled by the enthusiasm, and people who have been tempered by life will not think about those things. At most, I take it out when I need it to show that I know.
Now Zhang Fan's company offers such a high salary, and through the hype of the media, everyone knows that Zhang Fan's company is very, very rich and has a bright future, so naturally there are a large number of people who want to join it. And this kind of high-profile behavior is also a means for Zhang Fan to enter the film and television industry smoothly.
"I've been eating out every day lately." Chen Guozhong put the tea in front of Zhang Fan, and sat down on the sofa opposite with a smile, "I just came back from the hotel to continue working." It's all people you've known or had nodding acquaintances with before. Pull a relationship for yourself or someone else you know and want to come in. ”
"I said how to enter the door is a smell of alcohol." Zhang Fan smiled and said, "There is no problem with friendship, and friendship in China plays a great role." As long as there is no problem with the ability and you don't work negatively just because you were introduced, you can do it. ”
Zhang Fan himself is a Chinese person, and of course he knows the importance of human affection in China. And not only in China, but anywhere in the world will be a relationship. As long as it is enough and the work attitude is correct, Zhang Fan will not ask about these things.
Since Chen Guozhong was made the director of the production department, he also gave him all the recruitment matters. That Zhang Fan will not interfere before there is an obvious omission.
"I've been in this business for so many years, don't try to fool my eyes." Chen Guozhong is very satisfied with his current work, "Camera, lighting, props, costumes, drama and other aspects have attracted a lot of good players. Now there is absolutely no problem in forming a large crew. ”
The film and television industry is a collective industry, and even many places still inherit the model of masters leading apprentices. These departments are not one person, and recruiting one person is equivalent to recruiting the entire team behind him. And these teams that have been working together for a long time are far stronger than those who have formed an army temporarily.
"Recently, there have been a lot of screenwriters who want to join the company, and some have even submitted books." Chen Guozhong continued to speak, "Do you need to recruit some screenwriters?" ”
Zhang Fan's company is very rich, and almost everyone in the industry knows about it. In addition to the women who want to fall in love with Zhang Fan in every possible way, men are also very concerned about Zhang Fan.
After knowing that his company was recruiting people at a high price, many people were willing to take the initiative to join. And many screenwriters who have no chance to get ahead are also looking at this side and want to join this company that is known as a promising company.
In addition to those screenwriters who have not yet emerged, many well-known screenwriters and even directors in the circle have begun to hand over books to Zhang Fan's company. I hope to get the financial support of Zhang Fan, a local tyrant.
"If you write a screenwriter, you can recruit a few promising ones for the time being." Zhang Fan doesn't need a screenwriter, because he can buy a full set of scripts and shooting processes from the system store. However, there are so many talents in Huaxia, Zhang Fan wants to be a talent reserve, "As for those scripts, there are no other requirements except investment?" ”
The industry is very xenophobic, they crave financial support but don't want others to dictate them. Zhang Fan was already very clear about this at this time, because he was like this himself.
"Nothing but money." Chen Guozhong smiled bitterly: "This industry is like this. We're just about to enter the film and television industry, and people don't know if you really want to do it or if you're here to play tickets. Now these people are just handing over the notebook just to be able to get the funds. They don't know what your strength is, whether you can make a big hit. As for your achievements in other areas, there is nothing representative here. ”
Zhang Fan nodded, he had expected this before.
Those who are not famous can take the initiative to take refuge for Zhang Fan's high salary, but those big directors and screenwriters who have the right to speak just want Zhang Fan to provide funds. Before they really make good results, the directors and screenwriters who are themselves brands will not accept other requirements.
"Okay, then I won't disturb your work." Zhang Fan got up and prepared to leave, "I have been recording in the recording studio before, and I haven't eaten dinner yet." By the way, if you recruit people, you can recruit a little more, and for the time being, it is based on being able to start two large crews at the same time. Although there are not so many jobs started yet, it will be very busy in the future. Take advantage of this opportunity to set up the table first. ”
"If you recruit too many people, you ...... salary expenses" Chen Guozhong was a little difficult, it is not difficult to recruit people, but the difficulty is to pay so many people. And the standard set by Zhang Fan is already twice the industry average. This is a huge amount of labor expense.
"It's the fastest way to make a name for yourself." Zhang Fan opened his mouth to explain, "We have recently entered the film and television industry, and we must do it vigorously and make people look sideways." If you do things secretly like the Hall of Fame company, the biggest possibility is to be suppressed by everyone joining forces. We're doing this now to tell everybody that we have money. If you have the courage to attack us, then you must be prepared to bear the revenge of huge funds! ”
"I see!" Zhang Fan's words made Chen Guozhong suddenly wake up and nodded vigorously.
There are already enough people in this industry to share the cake, and if Zhang Fan enters strongly, he will inevitably be excluded. But if Zhang Fan forcibly shows his muscles, it can deter those people very well. I'm just rich, and if you want to stumble on me, you have to weigh whether you can afford revenge!
At this time, Chen Guozhong realized that the biggest reason why those big-name directors and screenwriters would hand over books to a new company that had just entered the industry and had not yet had a work came out was that Zhang Fan had already shown his muscles and let them see that Zhang Fan's company had the capital to gain a foothold in this industry. After all, everyone knows that Zhang Fan's company has a lot of income!
"If only you understood." Seeing that Chen Guozhong had already understood, Zhang Fan smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'm going to eat." ”
Zhang Fan did not eat dinner, and he had no time to record songs in the recording studio before, and he did not leave the company until today's work was over. Now what he wants to do most is go to a restaurant and have a big meal.
"Huh?" When Zhang Fan came to the parking lot and got into his Audi car and was about to leave, his mobile phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, Zhang Fan's eyes involuntarily narrowed slightly.
The person who called him was Koji Takeda. [.]
