Chapter 63: Friends
"Boss, Mr. Deng, who came to apply for the general manager of the film and television company, has been waiting outside for half an hour......" Liang Huan accompanied him carefully, and whispered in a low voice by changing the tea cup for the boss, although he is called a life secretary, Jiang Yelin's work secretary at the moment is not a word. The cute girl from Peking University with the eyes of the two pandas can only continue to carry two burdens on one shoulder. "Please let him in......" Jiang Yelin was a little annoyed in his heart, and the olive branches extended to several deputy directors of Beijing Film Studio and Youth Film Studio did not get a timely response.
On the contrary, all kinds of characters in the society responded enthusiastically to Ye Lin Film and Television Company's advertisement for recruiting general manager, and Ying Tatar, who had already accepted the director of the TV department, even blushed, and directly said Boss, otherwise I would have done it!
Of course, Jiang Yelin didn't let go, just kidding, Ying Ta had only been an assistant director before, and acting in a drama as an actor might still be able to mix up, so let him shoot a sitcom and still hold back a new script at this time.
If you want to be the CEO of a film and television company, it is estimated that there will be no drama in a few years, and the movie industry is deep and deep. "Boss, this is Mr. Teng from Zhuhai, who came to apply for the position of general manager of the film and television company, and this is our boss Jiang Yelin" Liang Huan quickly brought in a pale and thin young man. "Mr. Teng, please sit down, Liang Huan serves tea, remember to boil the water! I'm not happy if I don't open it! Jiang Yelin didn't expect the guy who came in to be so young, and he was about to fall down when the wind blew, so he felt a little unhappy.
Looking at Liang Huan's eyes, the girl was also used to the boss's style, humming and stepping on high heels and going out, and after a while, the hot tea was delivered, and sure enough, the surname Teng's mouth was burned, and Jiang Yelin was a little more angry. "Let's introduce myself, I'm too lazy to read my resume!" Jiang Yelin lazily lit a cigarette, and didn't seem to have the consciousness of Corporal Lixian. "Mr. Jiang, my name is Teng Jianguo, 33 years old this year, a native of Jiangxi, I have loved the film industry since I was a child, worked as a forest field projectionist, and became a family at the age of 20.
After that, he worked as the deputy editor-in-chief of a newspaper and the president of a weekly movie in the south, and also opened several companies that closed down in a recession, and contracted the photography department of an advertising company.
I have a special hobby for film and television art, and I came to Beijing on a business trip, and I happened to see your company's recruitment advertisement, so I came! “
Although the young man surnamed Teng was very thin, his eyes were big and bright, and he was also very calm when he introduced himself, but Jiang Yelin didn't see it.
Can this person in front of him be qualified for the position of general manager of Yelin Film and Television Company, with no professional knowledge and industry experience at all, how can he be the boss with this virtue to lead and manage the professionals below? "Mr. Jiang, maybe you think you must be an expert in the film and television industry, such as a producer and director, to lead a film and television company?" Teng Jianguo asked tentatively. "Isn't it?" Jiang Yelin asked rhetorically. "With all due respect, Mr. Jiang, making a good movie is a matter for professionals, and leading a film and television company is a matter for entrepreneurs.
I think I can be a good boss of a film and television company, because I only need to create enough conditions for producers and directors to do a good job in logistics support services.
For example, financing and budgeting, for example, the director needs actors to sign, and so on, do you still think that you are not qualified to be the CEO of a film and television company? "Teng Jianguo's words sound quite confident." Anyone will be right on paper, Mr. Teng, your resume can only prove that you have worked in advertising photography and information publishing, and it seems that you have no such experience to successfully lead a company to grow and develop, right?
Otherwise, you wouldn't have applied here, would you? Jiang Yelin hit the nail on the head and pointed out the other party's shortcomings. It's a mule or a horse that comes out to slip around, Mr. Jiang, if you don't give me a chance, how can I prove to you that I am not a qualified film and television company CEO?
The failure of my previous business was precisely because of the wrong choice of industry, coupled with the lack of opportunities, and now I am in Beijing, and I see your job advertisement.
I think this is an opportunity for me and your company, I hope I can get this opportunity, and your company also needs young and entrepreneurial people like me! “
Teng Jianguo said this, but he sighed in his heart, thinking that the money for the car to go back had not yet been settled, so he could only pick up the truck and leave. "You say you're gifted with budgeting and financing? How can it be proven? Jiang Yelin spit out a smoke ring and said indifferently. To tell you the truth, I have a movie script called "Yangcheng Story", which tells the story of the little people in the urban changes under the tide of reform.
How much investment do you think can be made for such a movie? Of course, the actors are not big names...... Teng Jianguo actually took out a script from his arms, and it looked like the cover had been worn out. "Hmm...... The script is not bad, if you really want to shoot, the cost control is good, 500,000 is always required, if you are a little bigger, 700,000 is not too much, how much do you think you can spend to shoot it? “
Jiang Yelin patiently read the script, and looked at Teng Jianguo in front of him a little differently, this script has obviously been revised and carved, and it is full of notes, maybe it was written by Teng Jianguo, which is not simple. "If I say, as long as you give me 200,000...... No, as long as you give me 150,000, I can turn this script into a movie, color, film, do you think I can be the CEO of Yelin Film and Television Company?
I'll do it all by myself for the director and actors, and I'll be the production director, do you think it's okay? “
Teng Jianguo is a bet, the 33-year-old himself can not come up with much, this small-budget movie script that has been prepared for more than half a year is his killer feature and his last chance. "Deal! Ye Lin Film and Television invested 200,000 yuan to shoot this film, you can do all the writing and directing, as long as you can shoot it, you are the general manager of Ye Lin Film and Television, if you can't shoot it, then don't say boss, I won't give you a chance! “
Jiang Yelin didn't think about it, and made a decision directly.
Perhaps, the person in front of him is just a guy who talks nonsense, but if he dares to make a movie for 150,000 yuan, Jiang Yelin feels that he has nothing to dare to bet on!
...... "Boss...... The director of the TV department should see you ......"
Liang Huan was still cautious, what she didn't say was that in addition to Ying Tatar, there were a large group of people, including her two brothers.
is munching snacks, fruits and drinks for free in the reception room, every time Ying Tar comes to see the boss, the brothers follow to eat and drink, so that Liang Huan is ashamed to see her two brothers! "Let him come in, by the way, inform the hotel, put more chili powder in the drinks in the reception room of our office building, I see that these guys are still coming to eat and drink and not work!" Jiang Yelin ordered angrily.
Soon, the sweaty Ying Tar grabbed the stacked script and entered the door, and shouted vigorously when he came in, "I said boss, it's not like that, that southern kid surnamed Teng He De How can he take 200,000 yuan from you, and he also spread the wind everywhere that he is the future president of the film and television company."
If it's really like this, the brothers can't do it, they really can't do it, Liang Daliang and I have been staying up day and night on the script, yes, you guys have hired a treasure island to be the director of the film department.
That guy is also a pure theorist, he is very good at playing tricks, he hasn't made a few movies, how can he be the director of any production zuò, I have heard, Ya's income is twice as much as mine! This can't be done, right? "What's not to do, you have to be able to make an idol film like "The Girl of the Country", and then be a production assistant in "Dahong Lantern".
If you write so many thousands of film reviews and seven or eight monographs on film and television theory, then it's not impossible for you to do it as the director of this film department! Jiang Yelin replied with a smile. Forget about Baodao Cheng, the kid surnamed Teng is the green onion? Why don't you have a whole layman! Boss, you're using money to smash water and bleach, it's a waste! Ying Tatar's face turned red and pointed the finger at Teng Jianguo. That's not right, Director Ying, co-authoring my 200,000 yuan is actually more in line with your needs, do you really expect Teng Jianguo to make a movie with 200,000?
Not to mention anything else, if you have this confidence, you also get a budget of 20 to make a movie, and if you make it, you will do it, the boss of the film and television department, if you can't shoot it, you pat your ass and leave, I will invite Gao Ming, the director of the TV department, how about it? “
The boss is such a general, Ying Tatar suddenly wilted, scratched his head and said, "Forget it, I'll concentrate on my sitcom, but I want to see what flowers the surnamed Teng can turn out."
Return the Yangcheng story, it's not bad if it doesn't become a Yangcheng ghost story, boss, we are going to change the script of "No Love and No Home", the name is "No Love, No Price", what do you think? "Loveless is priceless? Specifically, I told you last time, how good it is to be a youth workplace comedy, how can it become loveless and priceless? Jiang Yelin raised his eyebrows and asked. The specific is still pondering, that is, under the tide of reform, the short things in the family are ......" Ying Tatar's voice was a little empty when he said this. "Don't! Don't, the family thing, it's almost said in the American sitcoms, I'm thinking, how do you see such an idea.
A few young people who are just starting out in their careers, sharing two apartments next to each other, around the story of these young people, the café is one of their base camps, followed by the bar, what do you think? “
Jiang Yelin pondered this idea for more than a day, and he felt that Yelin's foreign-related serviced apartment was the best backdrop, with a coffee bar and a bar.
There is also a long-term rental apartment upstairs, and if you find a few young actors and actresses, the drama will come alive.
The rest, of course, is to let the Tartars hold back the script, and Ye Lin Apartment can at least become a landscape and advertisement for free! "Boss, if you want to say that, it's really not impossible, just shoot the story of a few brothers in the TV department, and I'll be a hero.
In addition, find a few handsome men and beautiful women from the film academy to talk about love and love, I can see this drama, what is the name? “
Ying Tatar's eyes lit up, and his thoughts erupted like a spring. "Do you still need to think about the name, it's called "Friends of Yelin Apartment"" Jiang Yelin said disapprovingly.
