Guan Hu and Lu Chuan signed the brokerage contract very happily, and each of them also got a signing fee of 20,000 yuan.
For them, this is a bonus, they have never encountered such a good thing, as long as they sign it, they will get money.
Of course, the money is not given in vain, if you don't do things well, there will naturally be a way to clean you up, and the millions of liquidated damages at the back of the contract are not written for fun.
"I really don't understand, what is there for the director and screenwriter to sign, not to mention that there is a small actor, which has no commercial value at all." After Guan Hu left, Wang Jinghua complained a little, and it was still unknown whether these people could create more value.
"Sister Hua, the resource of directors is even rarer than that of artists, and directors always have the right to speak in casting. The first can be used by film and television companies, and the second can be used by artists to get more roles. You see that Huayi didn't rely on Feng Xiaogang to do it, although they don't have a contract, but the relationship is ferromagnetic. β
"In addition, the copyrights bought by film and television companies also have to find screenwriters to change the script. It's just an actor, and you can afford it. There is a CAA agency in Hollywood, which is a one-stop package from the director to the actor to the crew, how much profit can they make in a year? β
"How much?"
"$150 million!"
"Really?" Wang Jinghua couldn't believe that a brokerage company could make so much money.
"This is some information I specially investigated when I went to the United States, this agency not only has artists but also sports stars, and often packages producers, directors, screenwriters, and actors to film and television companies, even the six major Hollywood film companies have to give in, and there are nearly 100 agents under it."
Chen Bo is not nonsense, CAA is the world's No. 1 agency, starting from Hollywood, and then involved in the sports and music industries. Although its reputation may not be well-known to the public, it controls two-thirds of Hollywood's behind-the-scenes resources, and is strong enough to wrestle with well-known film companies.
With the banner of Wang Jinghua, coupled with film and television companies and online platforms, the influence of this circle is definitely not smaller than that of CAA. The United States is too far away, although Chen Bo did not regard this as his main business, but he could not guarantee that the Americans would take a fancy to the big cake of China.
Wang Jinghua's heart also turned up a huge wave, and Chen Bo's words seemed to point out the direction of future development for him.
To say that it is absolutely impossible to involve the sports industry in China, the best sports in the market at present is football, but there are too many cats in it, and the water is even more muddy, which is simply a chicken feather. But in the entertainment industry, she still has some status, film and television, music brokerage business is the two heaviest commercial value, and now it is necessary to expand from the downstream market to the upstream one-stop packaging, which can be regarded as an ecological closed loop in the entertainment industry.
There is still a lot of way to go in the future, and Chen Bo will be able to grasp the general direction at most, and the specific people who work will have to rely on Sister Hua to solve it.
Chen Bo is now busy at both ends, Pangu search is a key part of seizing the entrance of network traffic, and it is also the top priority, and it will become the two carriages in the group like Tencent QQ. Now the whole company is full of technicians, which is unscientific, and the company has to live by eating soil after no operation?
Yanjing is also a concentration camp for many Internet companies, so it has to make use of the resources here, and even found the big man in the headhunting industry - Korn Ferry International.
The headhunting industry originated in the mid-70s, but its development in China was in the late 90s, and it mainly served large companies, and the poaching of high-end talents from various companies were almost all executives, CO, CTO, COO and other positions.
The emergence of headhunting companies has changed the concept of iron rice bowls that have always been in China, and the trees have been moved to death, and people have been moved, and at the same time, it has led to the personnel reform of domestic professional managers.
Korn Ferry officially became a leader in the industry and successfully went public in '99, with its Asia-Pacific center company located on Hong Kong Island, and Yenching was only one of the representative offices.
But what Chen Bo lacks now is not the big man in the industry, what he needs more is a potential calf and talents who can grow together with the company. Moreover, there are only a few big bulls in the Internet industry, all of whom hold shares, and it is not meaningful to dig them up. Although this increased the difficulty of the work, Korn Ferry still accepted the order.
In the office of Galaxy Picking Culture, Chen Bo pushed open the glass door of the small meeting with brisk steps.
"I'm sorry for being late. The two producers should already know each other, so I don't need to introduce them again. β
Chen Bo pretended to arrive in a hurry, but in fact he gave them a time to understand and familiarize themselves with Galaxy's business philosophy and culture, whether it was for artists or film and television production, the overall strategy was consistent.
Marco and Liang Wenjing glanced at each other and smiled, but they were puzzled.
One is engaged in TV series, the other is making movies, what does this mean? As the saying goes, one mountain can't accommodate two tigers, and if two people are not arrogant, how can they think of breaking away from the system.
"Mr. Chen is in the limelight now, and your legend is full of people in the media circle."
After Chen Bo's last reminder, he also paid attention to the press conference of the beautiful music network that day, and naturally understood what happened at the scene. It is not difficult to see Chen Bo's extraordinary adaptability, so he still has great expectations for the cooperation between them.
"It's all a false name, which makes the two of them laugh."
Now anyone who is well-informed knows the nickname of Chen Cannon, and it is a little difficult to keep a low profile, people are really afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong.
Even the online forum has begun to have Chen Bo's fans, which he never expected.
"Between us, let's not go around the corner. Galaxy Entertainment independently registered two companies, one film and television media, mainly used to produce and distribute TV series, with Ma Ke as the legal representative and general manager. β
"Another Galaxy Pictures, which is mainly developing the film industry, has Liang Wenjing as the legal representative and general manager."
If a company makes both TV and movies, the relevant qualifications cannot be approved, and at the same time, for the sake of clear accounts, it needs to separate the two businesses.
Both men had no objection to this, and both agreed. Originally, what the two people were good at was not in one direction, but now they are each responsible for operating together and not interfering with each other, so there is no problem.
"In the first year, the two will only have 20% of the dividend rights, and in the second year they will own 5% of the shares, in the third year they will have 15%, and so on in the fifth year they will receive 30% of the company's shares. If the company chooses to go public, it will also have a right of first refusal on the quota of original shares. β
Unlike Wang Jinghua, the mechanism formulated for them is how many years they have to work before they can get the corresponding shares, because although they have experience, they do not have high-quality resources that can be directly converted into profits.
Wang Jinghua directly took the artist contract into the shares, which is also a way to motivate them to work hard. Thirty percent of the shares are really a lot, and there will definitely be other shareholders involved in the future, if you give more, then your founder will not even have a hair left, and generosity must also have a degree.
Even so, they are very satisfied, and they don't have to bear the funds themselves, others take money to let you start a business, you have shares if you do well, pat your ass and leave if you don't do well, and you don't have to take any risks.
Although it is said that it is so, neither of them is the kind of person who picks on the child halfway, otherwise how can you mix in the circle, it is really dry, which company dares to ask you? Even if you return to the system, it will be difficult to eat.
After negotiating these things, Chen Bo then took out the script of "Black Hole", and at the same time had a copy of "The First Close Contact" by the ruffian Cai, Yang Junrong lived up to his expectations and bought the corresponding film and television and peripheral copyrights at a price of 200,000 yuan.
"The black hole is a ready-made script, and the main creative team has also signed a contract, which is a sure thing, and a budget of 4 million will be invested. This will be a drama of our company, and it will definitely be an instant hit! β
There is no doubt in Chen Bo's words, and since Marco is from Jindun Film and Television, he is also very handy in making this kind of anti-corruption and anti-crime drama.
"Mr. Chen is very discerning, in my experience, although the main theme is very strong on the surface, the story structure and content have been handled very well. This drama will definitely be popular, with a fund of 4 million to produce a modern drama, and the budget is very sufficient. β
Marco sighed that this first play was so appetizing to him, and he could play to his strengths.
"But this "First Intimate Contact" belongs to the modern urban love category, and I am not very good at it, but I don't know how Chen always arranges it?"
"This plot is very much in line with the living habits of young people in the city now, and TV series and movies can be done. Don't worry about money, and don't forget what my job is. β
"Chen always wants to promote your online company through this show?"
Marco's brain is very flexible, and he can understand it at all.
"I think of a person who is very good at this kind of emotional drama." Liang Wenjing, who had been relatively quiet, said suddenly at this time.
"Oh? I have a candidate in mind! Marco also said.
"Haha, since the two of you have an idea, you might as well follow Zhou Yu and Kong Ming to write down a name each, and see if you have a tacit understanding." Chen Bo had a playful idea, so he came up with the section of the Red Cliff War in the Three Kingdoms period that planned to attack Cao Ying.
The two also had a competitive heart, so they took a blank piece of paper in their hands, wrote down the name they thought of in their hearts, and then opened it at the same time. Both of them looked at what was written on each other's paper, then looked at each other and laughed, but it was the same three words "Zhao Baogang".
"Nice, pretty. There is really a feeling of heroes cherishing heroes! Chen Bo clapped his hands and smiled, "I just don't know which unit this Director Zhao is now?" β
Zhao Baogang is a very familiar name, and he is indeed a well-known director in China, but if you want to say what specific works there are, Chen Bo can't answer.
Ma Ke sighed, "Lao Zhao, I am still relatively familiar with him, I opened a mom-and-pop shop with his wife and started a small company, but I am at ease!" β
