Chapter Eighty-Five: The Celebration Banquet
The date of the celebration was chosen on December 12. In these years, there is not even Double 11, let alone Double 12. So, this day is also a very ordinary day.
Of course, the future is not certain.
Wang Qinian successively chose the days of Double 11 and Double 12 to hold the inaugural meeting of the small partner company and entertain guests to the outside world, which in essence, also shows his "possessiveness" for these two special days.
December 12, 1998, 7 o'clock in the evening.
Beiying Community, Ming and Qing Dynasty Style Street, an antique restaurant. The parking space in front of the door is already packed.
Because, the address of the small partner company will be selected here.
Wang Qinian arranged it in advance and arranged a banner in the hotel, which read: "The box office of the "Gate of Destiny" movie exceeded 10 million and the celebration party for the establishment of the small partner culture company"!
At this celebration party, more than 1oo crew members gathered together. In addition, representatives of the three companies of Wheat Field Music Company, Beijing Film Studio and Relay Publishing House were also invited.
"Boss Wang, you are young and promising, you have your own company at the age of twenty!"
"Whereever, small companies are not worth mentioning."
"Director Wang, if there are new works in the future, remember to give me a hand, I am also very interested in film investment."
"Hehe, of course."
Many VIPs, whether they are already familiar with each other or relatively unfamiliar, like to surround Wang Qinian, giving him a kind of posture of hugging each other. There is no doubt that he is on the scene, and it is easy to form a circle of contacts centered on him.
In the cultural entertainment industry, talent is important, but also connections and circles.
You don't get into the circle, and people don't take you to play. And people who have already started to "play (cooperate)" and cooperate very happily, if they deliberately pull together, they may form a small circle of close cooperation.
A small and solid circle may form an alliance that advances and retreats together. In the market competition, it is exclusive.
In fact, Wang Qinian is trying to establish a small circle as a barrier to form a competitive advantage.
After everyone arrived, the staff was asked to set up the sound equipment.
After that, the host gave a brief introduction.
Wang Qinian, the host, took the stage to speak:
"Colleagues, leaders, friends, guests.
Today, I invite you all, it couldn't be simpler. "Gate of Destiny", a small-budget movie, broke 10 million at the box office. And that's not even counting the box office revenues of overseas travelers.
According to the current number, there are already 450,000 box office in Hong Kong, and Taiwan and Singapore have also been released, and the box office in those two places is not much, but it is almost 2 million in RMB.
But if you add the sales of video discs, in fact, "Gate of Destiny", a film with an investment of only 5o yuan, has a GDP of 2ooo yuan in film and television output alone.
This input-output ratio is undoubtedly very high, even if it is engaged in real estate, its input and output are estimated to be not comparable with ours.
Now, there are many people in the media who will say that I am a genius and a ghost! "Gate of Destiny" is a box office dark horse, a box office miracle.
But in fact, after thinking about it, I still realized that in fact, the success of "The Gate of Destiny" is by no means the credit of me alone, but the credit of all of you!
Not only the team that made zuò, but also the other people in the industry, publicity, sales and screening, etc., you are also meritorious, some heroes, even not in our list, can only be regarded as unsung heroes, thank you in my heart! ”
Wang Qinian's speech paused for a moment, and everyone on the scene agreed, and a wave of applause rang out.
"The success of the film "Gate of Destiny", in the process, generated a series of jobs. Therefore, film and television are not only culture and art, but also a business and economy.
If we can make the industry bigger, we will surely provide more jobs. It can make a positive contribution to our domestic and world economy.
That's why I decided to invest in the establishment of a small partner culture company.
At present, the shareholders of the small partner culture company are a few of our buddies. Thanks to some partners, some people have already joined our company.
In the future, our company's goal is not just to make our own films. Moreover, if it becomes bigger and stronger, it can also invest in more directors and contribute to the exhibition of the domestic box office market. If the box office market of movies can get better and better, our Chinese films will get better and better. ”
"In addition, I think films, music, novels, and all kinds of other arts, such as stage plays, comics, animation, games, all have something in common.
We are a movie, and the brand has a certain appeal. Well, maybe we'll release a novel and music album of the same name.
We have already tried this cooperation with Rye Field Music and Relay Publishing House.
In the future, we may do more explorations and strive for a work that can break down the barriers of film and television, music, novels or other barriers, and create a greater industrial value......"
At the scene, Wang Qinian's 20-minute speech received a wave of applause.
In addition, the leaders of Relay, Mai Tian, Beijing Film Studio, and Film Academy each took the stage to deliver speeches. Although, no one dares to say, what is the future of the little partner company. After all, Andy Lau and Stephen Chow, the film company they founded personally, have also had poor management and bankruptcy and bankruptcy.
It can be seen that even if a director and superstar with box office appeal establishes a film and television culture company, it may not be promising.
After all, being able to shoot a good work does not mean that you can run a good company.
"I said, little brother, are you taking too big a step?" Boss Song of the wheat field smiled, "You haven't run a company, you don't know how hard it is to run a company!" Seriously, after a company is founded, there are operating costs every day! It's really not as good as being self-employed, and doing things is only starting to pull investment to be comfortable! ”
"Brother, you can't say that! After the establishment of the company, it began to have long-term partners and employees, so that in the future, there will not be a turnip and a pit, even if it is popular, it will make people feel unstable. Wang Qinian explained with a smile, "Besides, China's entertainment industry has just risen, and if there is no talent, it will not be able to have a say in the industry in the future." And how many talents can be attracted purely with the righteousness of friends? Moreover, to maintain a relationship with friends, you must not exhaust people to death? Therefore, the best way is to sign a large number of potential talents with a contract with a company in the city! ”
"Yes, that's right!" Song Ke smiled when he heard this, and his Rye Field Music Company did the same. In the early days, relying on friendship, I fooled some friends to help in the company. But now it is far from enough to rely on this relationship alone, so more emphasis is placed on signing singers and composers in the form of contracts.
