Chapter 454: Calm the Army's Heart

On the second day after Han Jin took over the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, he convened a meeting of the managers of 19 theaters, which were also attended by other senior executives of Yongsheng Entertainment, such as Yu Zheng, manager of the public relations department, Wang Jing, manager of the creative department, Guan Zhilin, deputy manager of the artist department, and Mei Jie, deputy general manager of the company. [

The purpose of convening the meeting was to calm people's hearts, and Han Jin didn't want too much fluctuation in the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line after he took over. He wanted everyone to be able to do their part, and of course if anyone wanted to leave, he would give them permission as appropriate.

Among the managers of the nineteen theaters present, Han Jin knew twelve people, because the movie had been released in their theater before, and they had already dealt with each other. Although the other seven people don't know each other yet, they have already met today.

Everyone feels a little unbelievable that Han Jin, a young man, has his own cinema at such a young age. To be honest, they already felt very uncomfortable when they came to Yongsheng Entertainment Company for a meeting for the first time today, instead of going to the familiar Shaw Brothers Studios for a meeting.

Seeing it again, it was no longer Sir Shao, but Han Jin, a yellow-haired boy who had not dried up. They saw him sitting there with a kind smile on his face, but it seemed to them a little ironic.

Han Jin is younger than their sons, and compared to him, it seems that all of them have lived to be dogs. A lot of age can't compare to this young man. It made everyone feel a little dizzy, and their blood pressure began to soar, which was really awkward.

The person who feels the most awkward is Ji Fanghua, the former general manager of Shaw Brothers Cinemas, who is an old courtier of Shaw Brothers. He has been the manager of Shaw Cinemas for nearly 20 years. From a theater conductor to a theater manager, and all the way to a theater manager, it can be said that she is a living dictionary of theaters, and there is nothing she doesn't know about theaters.

She herself is also a very capable person, in addition to the factors of directors and actors, the theater manager reasonably arranges the schedule, and the main reason is to suppress competitors with the method of "Tian Ji Horse Racing".

It's just that the quality of Shaw Brothers movies has declined in recent years, and Ji Fanghua's clever wife is difficult to cook without rice, which has caused Shaw Brothers Cinemas to lose money. But everyone knows that the sin is not in her.

Han Jin and Ji Fanghua have dealt with each other a few times. Because Yongsheng Entertainment's movies have always been released in Shaw Brothers theaters, they often have to discuss with Ji Fanghua when arranging schedules.

Han Jin also suffered Ji Fanghua's loss, when "Ghost Horse and Flying Man" was released in Shaw Brothers theaters. She didn't arrange a good schedule for Han Jin. Fortunately, this movie is a success. overshadowed Shaw Brothers' biological son "Goodbye Seven Days of Love". That's why Shaw Brothers later added a few more theaters to him.

At that time, Han Jin was stimulated and wanted to build his own theater, but he didn't expect to get it now. And a few days ago when "Mr. Zombie" was released. He and Ji Fanghua have met a few times, and at that time, he was the filmmaker and had to curry favor with Ji Fanghua, the theater operator. didn't expect that after a few days, feng shui would take turns, and now Ji Fanghua was going to come to shoot Han Jin's sycophants.

After she knew yesterday that Han Jin took over the Shaw Brothers Cinema Line, she knew that something was wrong. When Han Jin wanted to release a movie in Shaw Brothers Cinemas, she was difficult for him several times, and neither the schedule nor the number of shows was good. If Han Jin holds a grudge, she will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

Besides, once the son of heaven is a courtier, and the new boss takes office, people will definitely use their own people, and they will still be fired at that time. Anyway, the left and right are going to be kicked out, so it's better to do a better job, and resign by yourself, so that you can save some face.

Therefore, she typed her resignation letter overnight, and she received a notice to hold a meeting this morning, and she also carried the resignation letter. I was going to hand it over to Han Jin when the time came, and I would save myself from being so embarrassed by being expelled.

It was the first time for Han Jin to have a meeting with so many people, especially when he was presiding over such a large meeting. Seeing that everyone was secretly targeting him, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Uh-huh!" Coughing lightly, Han Jin then showed a kind smile, "Good morning, everyone~"

"Hello Mr. Han!" "It's better to have less energy!" "Hello boss!" ……

The people present shouted in a variety of ways, and it seemed a little messy.

"Everyone will call me Jin Shao in the future." Han Jin couldn't help but smile awkwardly, "I summoned everyone here today, mainly to meet with you." Some of you you already know each other, and some of you are meeting me for the first time. But it doesn't matter, after meeting today, don't everyone know each other? As he spoke, he swept over to the crowd.

As far as the eye could see, everyone in the audience smiled at him in a welcoming manner.

"I'm taking over the Shaw Brothers Cinemas now, and I don't know anything about it when I first arrive, so I ask you to help." Han Jin smiled again and said, "I have already discussed with Sir Shao, your positions will not change, everyone can rest assured that you can work." ”

Hearing him say this, all the theater managers present couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

What they are most worried about is that once they become a prince and a courtier, after the new boss takes over, they will all be laid off. When the time comes, they really don't have a good place to go.

They are the theater manager, who is in charge of the affairs of the theater release, supervising the box office in real time, and providing timely feedback on the situation. If they are kicked out, there will be no second cinema in Hong Kong for them to take care of. Because there are a number of theaters in Hong Kong, one radish and one pit.

Unlike other companies, you can also jump between major companies. They don't have a lot of options, and if they want to go somewhere else, they have to start all over again.

Now knowing that his job has been saved, everyone present can't help but look at Han Jin gratefully and thank him for his "grace of not killing".

Compared with everyone's relief, Ji Fanghua was a little worried.

She knows that those theater managers can not be replaced, because they are all subject to the arrangements of the theater managers, what schedule, what films to release, they have no right to decide, only obey orders. Therefore, the cinema manager is the core of power in a cinema chain, as long as Han Jin controls the position of cinema manager. This theater is his.

Ji Fanghua knew that he was not Han Jin's person, he could keep the nineteen theater managers, but it was absolutely impossible to keep himself. Not to mention that he had conflicts with him before, even if he waited for an opportunity to retaliate, it was understandable.

was worried, so I heard Han Jin call his name, "Manager Ji~"

Ji Fanghua's body was shocked, thinking "It's really here", she reached into her briefcase and grabbed her printed resignation letter. Just as she was about to hand the letter to Han Jin, she heard him say again. "Mr. Zombie is now about to be officially released. You take the trouble to take care of it a little more. ”

Ji Fanghua was stunned, "What?" ”

Han Jin was also stunned, and then repeated his words.

Ji Fanghua was extremely surprised and couldn't help asking. "How. Aren't you going to fire me? ”

Han Jin was stunned for a moment. Everyone present was also stunned and looked at it suspiciously.

Han Jin smiled, "Did we have some misunderstanding." Why do you think I'm going to fire you? ”

"Once a son of heaven and a courtier, besides, when your movie was released before, I was still sorry for you and didn't arrange a good schedule for you." Ji Fanghua said, "It's reasonable and reasonable, you can't keep me?" ”

Han Jin waved his hand, "I don't believe in the statement that once a son of heaven and a courtier, as long as everyone tries their best to do things in the future, I will not have other thoughts about everyone." Besides, you were the manager of Shaw Brothers Cinemas at the beginning, so naturally you had to think about Shaw Brothers Pictures, which is understandable, how could I fire you because of this. Work with confidence, Manager Ji. I know you're talented, stay and help me, okay? ”

Ji Fanghua couldn't help but be stunned when she heard Han Jin say this, and then nodded movingly. She really didn't expect Han Jin to let her go like this, and still keep her position, which made her really emotional for a while.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I repeat, as long as everyone continues to do their best, I will not unload the mill and kill the donkey." Han Jin looked at everyone again.

Everyone couldn't help but look awkward, listening to Han Jin's meaning, if they didn't do their best, they would be properly unloaded and killed at that time.

"Do you have any comments?" Han Jin asked again.

Everyone present shook their heads together, their waists were all straightened, and they listened attentively to Han Jin's words.

"Okay, the next thing is the release of "Mr. Zombie", Manager Ji, you should keep an eye on this matter." Han Jin said again, "Do the rest of you have any questions to react to?" ”

"Jin Shao, now that the theater chain has changed hands, is it better to change the name?" A theater manager said with a smile.

Hearing him say this, everyone in the audience nodded together.

Han Jin smiled, "I won't change the name for the time being, and it will be better to change the name after I renovate my theater 6." If you want to come up with a new name, you have to have a new atmosphere. ”

"Jin Shao wants to redecorate the theater?" Ji Fanghua was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise.

Han Jin nodded, "I have sent people to see these theaters before, and some of the hardware facilities are too old to meet the tastes of the current audience." Some of the theater seats were too scratched, and some of them were wooden seats from twenty or thirty years ago, and they were not comfortable to sit at all. There are many more issues like this, so I would like to redecorate them. ”

"It's great to say that my Kyoto Theater is in the downtown area of Wan Chai, but because the hardware is so old, the audience is reluctant to go to us. If Jin Shao can pay for a redecoration, I think the audience will definitely return. A theater manager laughs.

"There was little energy, the floor of our theater was broken in many places, the projection equipment was always out of order, and the seats were cut by some hooligans. I hope that Jin Shao can also redecorate our theater. A theater manager also said.

"Your two theaters can make do, but my theater even has bad sound, there is always noise, and it hasn't been repaired several times. Jin Shao, you should help us replace it first. Another theater manager said.

……

As soon as they heard that Han Jin was going to pay for the renovation of the theater, these theater managers immediately began to complain. After all, who doesn't want their theater to be beautifully decorated, well-equipped, and advanced.

Han Jin couldn't help frowning when he saw that they were all rushing to ask for money, and they were arguing with each other. "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet. The renovation of the theater is a big project, which cannot be completed overnight, nor can it be carried out at the same time, and it always has to be done one by one. Manager Ji, go back and count the areas to be improved in these theaters, and go back and make a list for me. ”

"Okay, Jin Shao, I know." Ji Fanghua nodded.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Shaw Brothers Cinemas is a long-established cinema chain located in a very good location, most of which are famous downtown areas in Hong Kong. Therefore, as long as the hardware facilities of the theater are perfect enough and the films screened are of sufficient standard, there must be no need to worry about no audience. Han Jin said to everyone present.

"In terms of movies, I will be in charge, and as for the theater, it depends on your efforts." Han Jin glanced at them and said, "Since everyone can sit together now, it is their own people, and I also hope that everyone will do their best to do good things and make money together in the future." ”

"Yes!" The managers of the nineteen theaters present answered the chorus together. (To be continued!)
