Chapter 599: Going to the United States to Film?!

It's just that his little bit of caution is really hard to say, after all, no one can figure out Xu Guanwu's thoughts, maybe he is very sensitive to his identity as the black boss? After all, he is still a legitimate businessman in name, and if he hooks up with the hidden black boss, I'm afraid he will be quite dissatisfied.

So Uncle Cai and Liu Zhenwei glanced at each other, but neither answered Xu Guanwu's question, but repeatedly begged Xu Guanwu to take the money back.

Xu Guanwu hates people to talk the most, as if he looks unsightly. Seeing that Uncle Cai and Liu Zhenwei were dodging and dodging, speaking unclear and untruthful, I couldn't help but feel a little disgusted. "Forget it, since the money is given to you, you can accept it, and push and push, do you think I can't afford to pay?"

When Uncle Cai saw that Xu Guanwu was angry, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and almost knelt down for Xu Guanwu. The so-called older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are, Uncle Cai has been working the rivers and lakes for half his life, and his experience is naturally not comparable to the beauty of ordinary young cubs who have just come out of the rivers and lakes.

He had seen with his own eyes some gang leaders who were still majestic just now, but in an instant, they were knocked over to the ground by someone, and the flesh and blood of the beating were blurred. I also know that some of the bigwigs who were originally called very loudly were only reduced to beggars on the streets. So Uncle Cai has experienced too many things, so he naturally has a sense of awe for the rivers and lakes. Especially a bigwig-level figure like Xu Guanwu, he really can't afford to mess with him. Now seeing that Xu Guanwu was angry, Uncle Cai knew that the road was going to be broken, and he was about to say something to make it happen, but at this time he heard someone shout, "Mr. Xu!" ”

When Uncle Cai heard this voice, he suddenly turned around like a lightning strike. I saw Yu Yunkang standing beside him. I couldn't help but startle him.

Yu Yunkang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Uncle Cai, Liu Zhenwei and others. But with Xu Guanwu in front of him, he was embarrassed to ask, so he had to stand behind Xu Guanwu first.

Xu Guanwu smiled at him, "Very good, today's complexion looks much better than yesterday." You wait here for a while, and I'll take you up to go through the onboarding procedures. ”

"Xie Lu, Mr. Xie Xu." Yu Yunkang said with an embarrassed smile.

In front of them, Uncle Cai and Liu Zhenwei opened their mouths wide. looked at the interaction between Xu Guanwu and Yu Yunkang with a surprised face, and felt that these two people had a lot of relationship.

What kind of identity is Xu Guanwu, and he is willing to personally take someone to go through the entry procedures. If this person has nothing to do with him, would you believe it?!

Uncle Cai suddenly closed his mouth, and suddenly knelt down in front of Xu Guanwu, "Mr. Xu, I am old and young, you raise your noble hand and let me go, I will kowtow to you here." He cried out as if he were mournful.

Xu Guanwu was startled by his kneeling, and jumped up from the sofa all of a sudden. Pointing at Uncle Cai, he asked Liu Zhenwei in surprise, "What's wrong with him." Is it a neuropathic attack? ”

Liu Zhenwei was also dumbfounded, to be honest, although he has not been in the company for a long time, but when he met Uncle Cai in the past, he was a wise and calculating big brother. Who would have thought that it would be like today, just like a beggar on the street, where is there still a little bit of big brother's style?

"You get up and speak first." Xu Guanwu saw that the people in the hall were all looking at this side curiously, and couldn't help but scold with some displeasure.

Uncle Cai listened to Xu Guanwu's sharp tone, and he didn't dare to disobey, so he quickly stood up.

Xu Guanwu looked at him angrily, "What do you have to say, what are you doing here?" What do you think of me, a demon who kills people without blinking, or a psychopath who kills the whole family? ”

Uncle Cai lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.

Xu Guanwu waved his hand, "You can take the check back, the rules of the rivers and lakes, I don't want you to return it." lest people say that I have broken the rules. If you really think that the money is too much, then give me a copy of the movie "Mountain Dog", and it will probably be useless for you to keep it. ”

"Okay, okay, whatever Mr. Xu says is what he says." Uncle Cai hurriedly responded.

"Alright, let's go back early if nothing happens." Xu Guanwu waved his hand.

Uncle Cai hurriedly took Liu Zhenwei and others away as if he had received amnesty.

Xu Guanwu looked at them in a hurry, and couldn't help but smile and shook his head, thinking that it was a pity for Bodhi Ancestor, how could he follow such a big brother, it was really a pearl secretly.

"Mr. Xu, the film "Mountain Dog" has been banned in Hong Kong, and even if you buy a copy now, you can't show it in Hong Kong at all." Yu Yunkang said worriedly.

"Who said I'm going to be screened in Hong Kong?" Xu Guanwu smiled and said, "I'm going to take it to the United States to be released." ”

Yu Yunkang almost fainted when he heard this, "Really? ”

"Why, you don't want to?" Xu Guanwu asked in surprise.

"No, I'm too willing." Yu Yunkang hurriedly smiled, "It's just that I never had the luxury of expecting my movie to be released in the United States." ”

Xu Guanwu smiled, "This is not called extravagance, in fact, your film is not suitable for release in Hong Kong, but it is quite suitable for screening in the United States, Japan and other countries that like horror movies." It's like this "Mountain Dog", Hong Kong people will feel uncomfortable watching it, and they are not used to this kind of bloody and violent picture. But for fans in Europe, America, and Japan who love heavy tastes, this movie is very good. ”

Yu Yunkang couldn't help but be very happy when he heard Xu Guanwu say this, "I didn't expect Mr. Xu to study film so thoroughly, which really makes me admire." I remember that Mr. Xu also seemed to invest in some horror films in the United States, and I watched them last year, and to be honest, they were really good. ”

Xu Guanwu smiled, "Then do you have any thoughts about going to the United States to film?" ”

"Uh......" Yu Yunkang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Naturally, I studied film abroad, but Hollywood is not very friendly to Chinese, so I can only go back to Hong Kong first." ”

"Then what do you think if I say I'm sending you to Hollywood to film?" Xu Guanwu asked with a smile.

Yu Yunkang showed an expression of disbelief on his face, "Mr. Xu, are you really joking?" ”

Xu Guanwu smiled, "There happens to be a ghost movie this year, and there is already a script, but I haven't found a director yet." I'd like to send you over to try it. Do you have confidence in yourself? ”

Yu Yunkang was so excited that he almost fainted. "Yes, yes, Mr. Xu, I have confidence. Leave it to me, I'll shoot it well. ”

Xu Guanwu smiled, "Very good, go through the entry procedures first, and then come to my office to talk about it." ”

Yu Yunkang nodded happily. followed Xu Guanwu to the personnel department upstairs to go through the entry procedures, and signed a three-plus-two contract in advance. It is Yu Yunkang who will serve the Xu family within three years, and if he performs well in the remaining two years, then he will renew the contract for another two years. If his performance is average and the company doesn't want to use him anymore, then the contract will not be renewed for those two years.

The contract of the Xu Group is very different from the contract signed by Yu Yunkang before. Yu Yunkang signed a head contract with Century Film Company, stipulating that Yu Yunkang would shoot several movies for the company, how much the salary would be, and the proportion of sharing. This is also a common form of contract offered by many independent production companies.

In the past, Hong Kong film companies generally signed such contracts, because this kind of contract is convenient and flexible. Film companies do not have to pay a large signing fee to sign long-term contracts with stars, and stars can also have a variety of options. As long as the schedule is well allocated, you can go around multiple film companies to make films. So this way of signing is very well received.

Of course, this way of signing is not without drawbacks, the first disadvantage is that the schedule of big-name stars is not easy to arrange, although they have a contract, it is in vain if they can't schedule it. Even if you barely schedule the schedule and rush to shoot for a while, the quality of the movie is really difficult to guarantee. In the late 80s and early 90s, the golden age of Hong Kong films, many star actors produced several movies a year, knowing that Lu Dao was no longer busy, but they still signed the contract and took it. There are too many bad films and too few good films, and they have lost overseas markets such as Nanyang and Taiwan one after another.

The second disadvantage is that the flow of talent is too rapid, only signing a head contract but not a long-term contract, and the actor will leave as soon as he becomes popular. Film companies are naturally reluctant to praise newcomers. All of them invite movie stars who have become famous to film, and naturally the old people all occupy the main resources, but the newcomers cannot get the resources to support them, and in the long run, they will naturally form a generation.

Take Hong Kong's kung fu stars as an example, Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, etc. are all kung fu stars who debuted in the 70s and 80s, but it is very rare to be a popular kung fu star who can fight after them. Fan Shaohuang, An Zhijie and Wu Jing are among the best, but compared with many predecessors, both fame and works are too far behind. Talent was basically cut off in the 90s.

Xu Guanwu also knows the harm of the head contract of the Daoist department, so he would rather spend a little more money and sign a long-term contract with the employees. Yu Yunkang's contract is already short in Xu's, like Zhang Guorong, Tan Yilin, Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao and others, the contract is a ten-plus-five model. Once signed, it is a ten-year long contract, and there is a five-year renewal after ten years, which basically encompasses an actor's entire golden acting career.

Although the ten-plus-five contract has been criticized by some employees because of the long term, many employees still rush to sign it because of the generous conditions offered by Xu Guanwu. For example, Xu Guanwu set the day when the employee signs a contract with the company as the "wedding day", which means that the employee marries the company, or the employee marries the company, on this day, in addition to sending greeting cards, a beautiful wedding gift will also be presented. The value of the wedding gift is calculated according to the length of the employee's length of service, and the longer the working time for the company, the more generous the prize will be. At present, a seven-year job will be a car, and a fifteen-year job may be a house.

In addition to gifts, wages are also raised every year according to the length of service, and in addition to the length of service, the performance of the previous year will be taken into account, and if the performance is excellent, the salary may even be doubled. Especially this is the most important for actors, if the actor becomes popular, not only the salary will rise, but also the salary will also increase. Therefore, such a affectionate and righteous company, naturally people are vying to sign a contract.

Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest are afraid of being pried into the corner by Xu's, so they basically sign long-term contracts with actors, especially Shaw's long-term contracts are longer than Xu's, but they are not as good as Xu's in terms of treatment, so they are often spit out by their employees.

After Yu Yunkang signed a contract with Xu and advanced a month's salary in the finance office, he went to his office on the top floor with Xu Guanwu.

Although Xu Guanwu has resigned from the position of general manager of Xu's Group, his office is still retained, and there are people who clean it regularly every day, so even if he does not come back for a while, it is still clean and clean.

When Yu Yunkang came to Xu Guanwu's office for the first time, he couldn't help but be taken aback by the luxurious decoration inside. I watched it with my mouth open for a long time, and it was easy to come back to my senses. Seeing Xu Guanwu looking at him with a smile, Yu Yunkang couldn't help but blush, "Mr. Xu, your office is so beautiful, I can't help but look dumbfounded, I'm really embarrassed." ”

"There's nothing to be ashamed of, but if you're not surprised, I'm surprised." Xu Guanwu smiled, "Sit down, I'll tell you about that ghost movie." ”

Yu Yunkang sat down obediently.

Xu Guanwu then poured two cups of coffee, and handed one to Yu Yunkang, "The story of this film is like this, there was a tragedy on Yushu Street......" (to be continued......)
