Chapter 433: Six

On the way back to the company, Chen Lang finalized the investment in the filming of Wang Jing's latest script "The Frog Prince", Wang Jing was very moved by Chen Lang's trust, patted his chest and said that he would persuade Shaw Brothers Film Company to give up the investment, and Chen Lang was very much looking forward to this box office blockbuster.

Chen Lang was thinking about what the surprise Wang Jing was talking about at this time.

Soon Chen Lang and his entourage returned to the company by car, and the employees of LL Entertainment Commodities Company and LL Film Company were very excited to see the company's little boss come back.

A few days ago, Chen Lang won the trend of the most popular male singer in the top ten golden songs, but many of the people are fans of Chen Lang, and they worship their little boss beyond measure, and even many people cheered.

At the same time, many young people who shopped in Langlang also shouted.

"Lang Lang, you are amazing!"

"Lang Lang, I like your songs so much!"

"Lang Lang, you are so handsome, we will always support you!"

……

Hearing the cheers of the employees along the way, Chen Lang smiled and waved to everyone and then quickly entered his film company, just walked through the conference room, Chen Lang noticed that there were a few people sitting inside, is this the surprise that Wang Jing said?

Wang Jing squeezed over at this time, "Lang Lang, you know all of them, right?" ”

Chen Lang's eyes lit up when he heard this, there were a total of six people in front of him, and although Chen Lang was not very familiar with these six people, he knew them all, because these six people had all joined the crew of "Happy Ghost".

The first time Chen Lang met them was when Wang Jing was filming "The Heart of Flowers", but the crew had already completed the filming when Chen Lang passed, and Chen Lang and them were just one side.

Later, when Chen Lang invited Wang Jing to shoot "Happy Ghost", Wang Jing directly reorganized the crew of "Flower Heart" again, because Shaw Brothers Films began to reduce production, and now many behind-the-scenes workers signed by Shaw Brothers Film Company are basically semi-unemployed.

Celebrities have been less affected, or even none, because the entire film environment in Hong Kong is now thriving, and the box office of Hong Kong films in Hong Kong and overseas is hitting record highs almost every year.

Now Hong Kong can see a lot of busy crews every day, so star artists, even second- and third-tier artists, can also receive film appointments.

But the behind-the-scenes personnel of the movie are not so lucky, the famous behind-the-scenes, people with representative works may receive invitations to work in the film, but those who sign contracts with Shaw Brothers, super-big-name star artists may also be able to sign a head contract, as for the behind-the-scenes workers, most of them sign the same as the deed of sale, which is almost universally known.

Shaw Brothers' contract is very strict, even harsh, first of all, in terms of treatment, it is not comparable to the other two film overlords, and even the treatment of second-rate and third-rate film companies is not as good.

In addition, because of competition, the filmmakers of the three companies are generally required not to help other companies make films, that is, they cannot take private jobs.

Now many people in Shaw Brothers Film Company are almost semi-unemployed, and they can only get a meager salary every month, and although it has not been announced to the public, it is no secret that Shaw Brothers has cut production, which makes many people feel uneasy and worried.

Everyone is now worried about their future, maybe one day Shaw Brothers will suddenly close down, and they will lose their jobs, how will they support their families?

Therefore, many people in Shaw Brothers Film Company are now looking for a way back for themselves, and this is also the opportunity that Chen Lang has been waiting for.

However, there is still a period of time before Shaw Brothers Film Company really closes, so big-name star artists and excellent behind-the-scenes workers cannot be poached, and they can only start from the personnel who are not the core of Shaw Brothers Film Company.

The six people in front of him are Huang Jiaxi, the executive producer of "Flower Heart" and "Happy Ghost", assistant directors (assistants) Liang Shengquan and Miao Jiande, photographer Li Xinye, and Cheng Jinrong and Su Zhenhou with soundtrack.

These people honestly said that Chen Lang had never heard of it in his previous life, although he was a little disappointed, but Chen Lang knew that although LL Film Company had attracted a little attention from everyone because of a "Happy Ghost", it had not yet grown into a first-class film company in the film industry, and it was not even second-rate.

Therefore, it is good to have these six experienced behind-the-scenes personnel to vote.

Huang Jiaxi, who joined Shaw Brothers in the 1970s, has supervised and produced 200 films in his lifetime, and the box office hit "Shaolin Thirty-six Rooms" in 1978 is his second work.

He joined Shaw Brothers (Hong Kong) Limited as a clerk in the Chinese Secretarial Office in 1970, transferred to the production department in 1973 as a clerical worker, and in 1976 transferred to production, first with Pan Lei's "Wonderful Girl", and then in charge of the production of Lau Kar-leung's films.

He started as a production manager in 1980 and immigrated to Canada in 1985 after leaving Shaw Brothers, where he ran a restaurant business until returning to Shaw Brothers as production director in 1993.

But because of Chen Lang's appearance and Wang Jing's help, Huang Jiaxi changed his mind and stayed, probably because Shaw Brothers sold Shaw Brothers Cinemas in 1985, which disappointed Huang Jiaxi so he chose to emigrate, and later returned to Shaw Brothers to continue to serve as a producer, which shows that the movie dream in his heart has not been extinguished, which also gives Chen Lang another opportunity.

Leung Shengquan, a famous Hong Kong director and now an assistant director of Shaw Brothers Films, has long been active in Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore to shoot TV dramas, specializing in fantasy dramas, using bizarre hands to show fantastic scenes.

His representative works include "Journey to the East", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", "Flying Immortals Outside the Sky", "Xuanyuan Sword", "Beauty Without Tears", "Ancient Sword Legend" and many other popular dramas.

I believe that many people have seen "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", which became popular with Hu Ge in one fell swoop, and some people say that the chief director of this movie should be Li Guoli, which is not wrong, but he is not really the director in charge, and the one who really dedicates the wonderful TV series to the audience is this good man who has been low-key behind the scenes - director Liang Shengquan.

Hu Ge once said that director Liang Shengquan is the director he admires the most, because in every TV series, Liang Shengquan will give serious lectures to the actors at the filming site, he is like a kind father, and he teaches young actors how to perform and interpret roles with all his heart.

Hu Ge is under the teaching of director Liang Shengquan, his acting skills are becoming more and more exquisite, so he is definitely a director with good ability.

Miao Jiande was an assistant director at this time, and later became a director with qualifications, although the works are not popular classics, but he also directed nine works, and spanned from 1993 to 2012, he is definitely a qualified assistant director.

Photography Li Xinye's works are less, judging from the two movies "Happy Ghost" and "Flower Heart", his skills are not outstanding, but they are also qualified and can barely be used.

Cheng Jinrong and Su Zhenhou with the soundtrack can be said to be a good pair, and they have collaborated on many works with each other, such as "Young Huang Feihong", "Golden Vase Fengyue", "Three Temptations", "First Arrival in Your Realm", "The King of Gambling", "Evil and Evil Again", etc.

If you didn't ask them to make a soundtrack like "My Heart Is Eternal" from "Titanic", then they are also qualified soundtracks.

Chen Lang is very happy about the arrival of the six, at least LL Film Company can finally form its own crew.

"Producer Huang, Director Liang, Director Miao, Li Photography, Cheng Pei, Su Pei, I'm so happy to see you, sit down, sit down." Chen Lang welcomed the six with a perfect smile.

The six of them all stood up when they saw Chen Lang, saw Chen Lang's smile, and when they heard Chen Lang's words, they were also relieved, it seemed that their choice was right.

"The six of you should know that my ll film company has just been established, although some people have been recruited, but it is too much worse than everyone with rich experience, so I have always wanted to invite you to join our ll film company, I wonder if you can join my company with a good face?" Chen Lang asked in a sincere tone.

The six of them were a little surprised, because the six of them just felt that it was not a long-term solution for Shaw Brothers Film Company, so they decided to leave Shaw Brothers Film Company together under Chen Lang's usual recruitment and Wang Jing's persuasion to join LL Film Company, which had just started a business and was in urgent need of talents.

Originally, the six of them came to apply for jobs today, although they knew that the ll film company was in urgent need of film talents, but the six of them did not put on a high posture, and even the six of them thought of a rhetoric, but Chen Lang in front of him was a corporal of Lixian, which made the six of them feel very comfortable, and even a little moved.

With Chen Lang's words, the six of them naturally immediately took over.

"Where, where is it, I still want Mr. Chen to enjoy food." Huang Jiaxi said with a smile.

"Don't call Mr. Chen, let's call Lang Lang, it's too foreign." Chen Lang heard Huang Jiaxi's words and knew that these six would not be able to escape.

Although the six are not famous, but a good start is a general success, I believe that with the existence of Wang Jing, a big bull, with his own cheating, LL Film Company will sooner or later become the hegemon of the Hong Kong film industry, and even dominate Asia, and then the big-name stars will definitely come to vote.

"Then I'll entrust you to Mr. Chen."

Huang Jiaxi and Chen Lang have been in the crew of "Happy Ghost", and they know that Chen Lang has no problems with youth and frivolity, is very kind and easy to get along with, so after hesitating for a while, they also called Lang Lang easily.

"That's right, we will be a family in the future, working together in the same company, I hope the six of us will not be stingy with their experience and technology, and can help me bring new people in the company." Chen Lang said with a smile.

"Definitely, definitely." The six of them also replied one after another.

"Okay, since I said that I joined LL Film Company, then I will also say it bluntly, everyone may have their own film dreams when making movies, but raising a family is also a man's responsibility, so I will directly talk about the treatment of our company.

First of all, each person has a basic salary of 3,000 yuan per month, in addition, if anyone joins the crew to shoot a movie, there will be another position remuneration and some subsidies, and if the movie is a big box office hit, there will be a red envelope, probably that's it, what do the six think? Chen Lang looked at the six and said.

The six of them all laughed when they heard this, because now being able to have a basic income of 3,000 Hong Kong dollars per month is already a very good income.

If you join the crew again, there are other subsidies, and there are even red envelopes at the end, which is much better than that of Shaw Brothers, and the six of them are naturally happy.
