Chapter 331: Big Stick and Carrot
…
handed over the overwhelmed Zhou Comin to Deng Lijun and Anita Mui to settle down, and Xu Cun went to DreamWorks with Hu Comatose......
Honestly-
Many people in DreamWorks don't understand Xu Cun's complete fall to the mainland -- in those people's minds, even if Xu Cun has feelings for the mainland and wants the mainland, he can continue to follow the Taiwan bend and think that he is a snake and secretly help the mainland. In this case, with Xu www.biquge.infoCun's international fame, the Taiwan authorities may not impose a heavy hand on Xu Cun.
Not to mention other people, even Hu Comet thinks so (Hu Comet is a Taiwan person after all, so it's normal to think so.) )。
If it weren't for the fact that DreamWorks was Xu Cun's personal industry and Xu Cun's past achievements were too dazzling, someone would definitely stand up and accuse Xu Cun, or at least someone would stand up and give Xu Cun some advice.
Now, although there has been no dissent, this is not to say that no one has objections, but those who have objections are waiting for Xu Cun's response - if Xu Cun's response measures are not appropriate, then there will definitely be a series of troubles. For example, some artists have left DreamWorks Agency, film companies that have partnerships with Liberty Cinemas have left Liberty Cinemas, and even other owners of Liberty Cinemas have joined forces to kick DreamWorks Cinemas out of Liberty Cinemas, etc......
……
When he arrived at DreamWorks, Xu Cun first asked the accounting department to count the box office of DreamWorks' films in various regions in recent years, and then held a DreamWorks management meeting.
At the beginning of the meeting, Xu Cun got straight to the point: "In the past five years, DreamWorks has achieved the following box office results around the world:
First, North America, the total box office: $1 billion and 80 million.
Second, Central and South America and Europe, total box office: $710 million.
Third, Japan, total box office: $470 million.
Fourth, the Nanyang region, the total box office: 250 million US dollars.
Fifth, Xiangjiang Main Port, total box office: 95 million US dollars.
Sixth, Taiwan area, total box office: $71 million.
Seventh, South Korea, total box office: $12 million.
It is not difficult to see from this data that even if DreamWorks really loses the Taiwan bend market, it will not be too much loss for DreamWorks, so I Xu Cun is not afraid of the Taiwan bend authorities blocking DreamWorks!
Of course, I really don't want to lose the Taiwan market, because there are so many lovely viewers there who support me.
But-
Although I don't want to lose the Taiwan market and the lovely audience in Taiwan, I don't want to lose the backbone of a Chinese g!
Taiwan, Xiangjiang, including Macao, have been the territory of China and G since ancient times, and as a Chinese and G people, I hope from the bottom of my heart that they will all return to the embrace of China and G, and I am willing to make a modest contribution to their return.
This will of mine will never change because of any difficulty! ”
As soon as Xu Cun's words were finished, the faces of several people who had prejudices against the mainland immediately became ugly, and Cen Jianxun and Zhang Jianyan, who were then the directors and deputy leaders of the third screenwriting team of DreamWorks, got up directly and left the conference hall!
Xu Cun remembered the people with ugly faces in his heart one by one, and then glanced at Cen Jianxun and Zhang Jianyan who slammed the door and left, and then continued: "I announce a few things:
First of all, I have reached a consensus with the Jiang brothers of Anle Cinemas - no matter what happens, Anle Cinemas and DreamWorks Cinemas will advance and retreat together.
The second thing is that I have reached a consensus with Mr. Liao of Yindu - DreamWorks Cinemas and Shuangnan Cinemas form strategic partners and serve as each other's backup cinema chains.
The third thing is that I have decided to expand the scale of the DreamWorks Cinema chain, and you should pay attention to the appropriate theaters and movie theaters.
Fourth, strengthen the resource management of DreamWorks -- including cinema resources, distribution channel resources, film and television city resources, artist resources, directors and other behind-the-scenes personnel resources, equipment resources and other film-related resources.
Fifth, review the qualifications of film companies that have a cooperative relationship with DreamWorks, and film companies that do not meet the cooperation standards will not provide them with any resources.
(At present, more than half of the film companies in Hong Kong (including Golden Harvest Film Company, New Art City Film Company, and Yongsheng Film Company) have to rely on various resources of DreamWorks to operate.) Therefore, as long as DreamWorks blocks a certain film company in a targeted manner, then for that film company, it is definitely more terrible than the ban of the Taiwan authorities. The fourth and fifth things Xu Cun announced were to warn those film companies that depend on DreamWorks not to do anything wrong! )
Sixth, any company that wants to develop is inseparable from unity and unity. In the near future, I am going to give 5% of the shares of DreamWorks Records, DreamWorks Agency, DreamWorks Video Games, and DreamWorks Toys to all the companies under my name in the form of internal voluntary subscriptions. Congratulations, you have the opportunity to be your own boss. As a friendly reminder to you, I will list these companies one by one in the future.
Seventh, I don't like people who can't share the hardships of the rich and the rich! I declare that anyone who has recently left DreamWorks, whether it is management, artists, directors or other behind-the-scenes personnel, will not have any cooperation with the films and studios in which they are involved! ”
After Xu Cun announced the first five things, since it was none of his business, most of the people present listened respectfully, and of course a few people wondered if they should leave directly like Cen Jianxun and Zhang Jianyan.
After Xu Cun finished announcing the sixth thing, many people immediately wanted to talk about it with excitement, but because Xu Cun was still speaking, they endured it - with the development momentum of DreamWorks and the various legends created by Xu Cun in the past, most of the people present believed that they would definitely make money by subscribing to the shares of several branches of DreamWorks internally, and it was very likely to make a lot of money. Taking a step back, even if these branches of DreamWorks can't be listed, after internal subscription, they can also follow the dividends, which is much better than working honestly, not to mention that Xu Cun also made it clear that these companies will be listed in the future.
After Xu Cun finished announcing the seventh thing, several people with other ambitions suddenly broke out in a cold sweat - with the resources mastered by DreamWorks, if Xu Cun did what he said, then the people who were banned by DreamWorks would definitely not be able to get along in the film industry in Xiangjiang, and in the end they could only choose to go to Taiwan or change careers!
Actually,
Xu Cun didn't want to pay attention to the people who had other ambitions, but Xu Cun couldn't let these people bring out a bad trend and cause a big loss to DreamWorks, so Xu Cun used a stick and carrot method to temporarily hold these people down - wait for this limelight to pass, and then kick these people out of DreamWorks one by one.
Xu Cun knew that most of the people present wanted to discuss the few things he had just announced, and Xu Cun also had some things to deal with, so Xu Cun said to Hu Yizhong: "Comet, you summarize what I said, and then hold a press conference for me according to my intentions." ”
After speaking, Xu Cun got up and said, "The meeting is over!" ”
