Shen Chong didn't say a word, sat in the main seat of the conference room, and threw the newspapers and magazines that had recently reported on "Die Hard" on the table one by one. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Lao Luo, what do you mean by that, boss?"
"I don't know, I'm not from the production department."
After the last copy was dropped, Shen Chong clasped his hands together, clapped his hands twice, and said: "Congratulations, "Die Hard" is a success, and a celebration banquet will be held on the weekend and a big red envelope will be distributed." ”
More than a dozen people in the conference room breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll talk about the celebration later, I'll announce another thing first." Shen Chongyou came out with a stack of folders, put them on the conference table, and said: "More than a month ago, I had a production meeting, and at that time, you submitted the production plan of the ll movie, except for Guo Wuji's, all the others were vetoed by me, and now these are the new versions that you have modified." ”
Except for Luo Weiming and Lin Nian, who were the same two onlookers, all the other participants immediately sat upright and looked at Shen Chong with tense nerves.
"Chen Xinjian, Zhang Quan, Zhang Jiazhen......" Shen Chong sent documents one by one, sent nine documents, and then said: "Your movie can be made." ”
Everyone was overjoyed, some laughed, some high-fived, only Zeng Lizhen was gloomy and dazed, her documents were detained.
"Don't get excited, everyone, I still have something to say." Shen Chong knocked on the table and said: "I haven't read a word of these nine production plans, I am your boss, not your elementary school teacher, I will do it once, and I will not do it a second time, these nine movies, to put it bluntly, are your midterm exams in the oriental charm, and those with good grades will stay, and if they are not good, they will find another high branch." ”
He waved his hand, motioned to Gu Liwei to take the drawing board in the corner, then put it up on the conference table, and said: "These nine movies you produce, don't use the oriental charm go, but use this, Touchstone Film Company, this is a subsidiary I specially opened for you, Touchstone, you know what it means, right?" ”
Everyone looked at each other in shock, Chen Xinjian coughed lightly and asked, "Mr. Shen, what is the standard for this assessment result?" ”
"There is no standard, I have the final say, after the movie is released, I will go to the theater to watch it in person, as long as there is a place that satisfies me, even if I pass the exam."
"This ......"
"I won't deliberately make things difficult for you, the judging criteria are very simple, there are two things, first, there must be sincerity, and second, there must be novelty, as for the box office, I don't care." Shen Chong put down the sketchpad and said: "The investment department on the sixth floor is about to move to Central, and I will leave the vacant space there to the production department. ”
After he finished giving the dates, he picked up the last document and said to Zeng Lizhen: "Caiu, I read this plan of yours, it's very good, but I can't let you shoot it now, Mr. Kurtz has been busy with the North American release of "Die Hard" recently, you can work hard first, replace him as the manager of the production department, coordinate and arrange the filming of these nine dramas, and wait for them to finish filming before you shoot, how about it?" ”
Zeng Lizhen was overjoyed, she didn't read other plans, only looked at her, and temporarily promoted her to manager, which was equivalent to escorting her to the sixth floor, indicating that Shen Chong still remembered her, the original employee of Oriental charm, and hurriedly said: "I have no problem." ”
Seeing this, Luo Weiming whispered to Lin Xingzhi: "You see, from the minister of the dragon, it is different. ”
"Lao Luo, you worked for Mr. Shen earlier than her, right?"
Luo Weiming smiled and said, "There are others earlier than me." ”
"You mean Kashiwa?"
"I mean, the other caiu, that caiu is now a billionaire sister.
"You're so open-mouthed." Lin Niantong was more rigorous, and he turned to get down to business: "The company started filming nine movies at the same time, which is really lively, and now we are alive again." ”
"Aren't we in the media just afraid that the world will not be chaotic?"
