Chapter 0317 Work Arrangement

Xu Hengzhou accepted this kind of deal well.

Since his studio is equivalent to being independent, it is normal to have some exchange of interests with the company.

All that remains to be considered now is how to weigh the weight of the chips placed on the scales by both sides in this exchange process.

He wasn't prepared to think about these things entirely on his own.

Some things have to be left to professionals.

The first thing he thought of was Zhang Jingjiang.

When Zhang Jingjiang was originally working hard in the entertainment industry with the original owner, he was able to find various opportunities in the face of difficult difficulties, and to a certain extent, he was a very capable person.

In the past one or two years, she has followed Chang Jihong to do things, and under Chang Jihong's careful teaching, she can be regarded as sharpened.

Anyway, Xu Hengzhou is very satisfied with the cooperation with Zhang Jingjiang this year.

Because of the existence of Zhang Jingjiang, and then Chang Jihong behind him, most of the time, he only needs to do his own work and act in a good play.

Everything else is taken care of by these two, and he doesn't need to worry about it at all.

Therefore, Xu Hengzhou has always had a plan to deepen his cooperation with Zhang Jingjiang, which is manifested in his decision to add money to Zhang Jingjiang and give Zhang Jingjiang a part of the "option incentive".

Of course, it's just similar to option incentives, after all, they're just a small studio, and they haven't risen to this level.

It's just that he can re-sign a contract with Zhang Jingjiang, which clearly stipulates that the bonus at the end of the year is linked to the studio's annual income, and a certain percentage of the commission will be made.

Zhang Jingjiang, as an agent, would have originally made a partial commission according to Xu Hengzhou's salary, but the commission ratio was very small.

Because Xu Hengzhou has always had a company, the broker's commission point has always been based on the company's proportion.

Unless it is a big broker like Chang Jihong, who was originally in charge of the economic department in the company, her commission is naturally completely different from that of a small broker.

So in the past year, Xu Hengzhou's status in the entertainment industry has undergone earth-shaking changes, and his income has also soared exponentially.

But Zhang Jingjiang, as Xu Hengzhou's agent, actually did not get a big increase in the salary.

Although Zhang Jingjiang did not talk to Xu Hengzhou specifically on this point, he did not put forward his request for promotion and salary increase.

But Xu Hengzhou definitely wouldn't feel that the other party didn't have such thoughts because of this.

After all, most people work to make money.

Even if Zhang Jingjiang and Xu Hengzhou struggled side by side at the beginning, it was somewhat out of the comradeship of some comrades who fought side by side, so they never gave up on Xu Hengzhou with a kind of idealism, and did not say that the salary was low and the income was low, so they gave up Xu Hengzhou directly.

But since we have worked hard together, it is time for the distribution of benefits, which does not mean that Zhang Jingjiang does not want anything.

After establishing this point, Xu Hengzhou directly found Zhang Jingjiang for a deep talk, and sure enough, the other party had no intention of refusing at all, and happily accepted the appointment.

When the salary is higher, there are more things to bear.

Xu Hengzhou not only hopes that Zhang Jingjiang can set up the brokerage department of their studio, but even hopes that the other party can manage the artist department.

He may later invite other actors into his company.

In addition to this, Zhang Jingjiang may need to adapt to another thing.

That is to connect with the new person in charge of studio management, and it is best to be able to work together harmoniously.

Because he asked Ms. Liu for help, he used Ms. Liu's connections to recruit a very senior manager in the entertainment industry.

The manager was said to be very capable of working, but his methods were too soft, so he was defeated in the competition of the former company.

Then I traveled abroad, and I just came back from abroad during this time.

And Xu Hengzhou, the former company of this manager, is also very familiar with Huayi!

At the same time, it is also Xu Hengzhou's former company.

Before he met the manager, he even wondered if he might have met him in the company.

After meeting, I found that it was indeed a little familiar, but it may have only been seen in the office area or at the annual meeting, but I have never socialized.

may be because this manager was originally at a very high level in the company, and the original owner was indeed relatively down-and-out, so there was no channel for intersection.

Originally, after returning this time, the manager actively applied for a job and contacted his previous contacts, and wanted to work again.

However, because the former company's business scope is relatively wide, he actually has little chance of returning to the management of large entertainment companies in the entertainment industry in the entertainment industry.

After many attempts to hit a wall, he had to come to terms with this fact.

If he wants to continue to work in the entertainment industry now, he has only one choice, to go to a small company or a small workshop.

Ms. Liu has a very deep friendship with this manager, knows the ability of this manager, and also knows that after the other party has gone through so much, she has already compromised, and plans to find a small company to settle down first.

He drew the strings between Xu Hengzhou and this manager.

After Xu Hengzhou had a deep chat with the manager, the first was that he felt that the other party was indeed capable, and the second was that he felt that the other party and himself were the same in some concepts.

After thinking about it, I hired the other party.

As a person who has never managed before, Xu Hengzhou really needs a professional manager to help him manage the relevant matters of the studio.

This includes, but is not limited to, dealing with the exchange of interests between the studio and the company.

And more importantly, his current identity is more of an actor, and he doesn't have much effort to participate in the management of the studio.

But for the rest of the studio, a new manager suddenly came in, and it was definitely something to run into.

After all, the entire studio was equivalent to serving Xu Hengzhou alone, and everyone only needed to listen to Xu Hengzhou's work arrangement.

And now that a new manager has arrived, when Xu Hengzhou has no time to take care of it, then the manager definitely has the right to make his own decisions.

At this time, I am afraid that there will be some problems in cooperation.

I'm afraid that some staff members will not listen to the arrangement of this airborne manager.

When this happens, the best thing to do is to have an old man in the studio who can build a bridge between the new manager and the rest of the studio, so that the work schedule can run smoothly.

At this time, Zhang Jingjiang's existence is very important.

She first had to put herself in the right frame of mind.

At such times, make appropriate sacrifices, abandon your position, and follow the arrangements of this new manager.

In fact, Xu Hengzhou could have not thought about it so much, and directly let the manager deal with it himself, if he didn't handle it well, it would be the manager's dereliction of duty, just let him go.

But Xu Hengzhou wants to run this studio well, so some things he can think of can be prepared in advance to avoid some risks, which is of course better.

With such an idea, Xu Hengzhou explained the current situation to Zhang Jingjiang in detail, and got an affirmative response from the other party after thinking about it seriously, so he was relieved to make a handover of the studio.

Then he explained to the new manager some of the projects he was running, and in addition to the cooperation between the studio and the company, there were mainly two investment projects.

One of them is "33 Days of Broken Love".

This movie is a movie starring him and Liu Yiqian together, and he has fully invested in it.

The film is still in post-production, mainly to keep an eye on the progress, as well as the quality of the film's production.

and another movie "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart", which he also invested, but did not star in.

However, the film has been edited, the finished film has been produced, and it has passed the review of the relevant departments, and the broadcast license has been obtained.

I am now preparing to participate in major film festivals, and I plan to go abroad to participate in a round of film festivals first, and then think about domestic publicity and screening.

This matter was the first test that Xu Hengzhou handed over to the new manager.

Xu Hengzhou has no box office requirements for this movie, just a minimum hope, and this movie doesn't lose money.

But on the other hand, he has clear requirements for word-of-mouth and ratings.

He hopes that the new executive will make the film a high-rated film with a good reputation.

And it can't be a word of mouth in a niche circle, you have to let most people know about this movie.

The public can watch the film without going into the cinema.

The main reason is that this type of literary film really doesn't eat the box office.

He strategically chose to give up.

Of course, if this manager can pull up the box office of this film as well, it will be an unexpected surprise.

Xu Hengzhou plans to use this film and the video platform to conduct another in-depth cooperation.

Therefore, how to make the audience not enter the cinema to watch this movie when this movie is released, but can click on the movie on the video platform when the movie is released, this is a problem that this manager needs to solve.

Although Xu Hengzhou feels that the quality of this movie itself is very good, the aroma of wine is also afraid of deep alleys, and there are so many literary films that can win awards abroad every year, and I have not seen any film that can be well-known by the public in China.

In fact, most of the award-winning films that are well-known to the public are originally well-known in China, either shot by famous directors, or have a good box office.

Then it won awards abroad, which deepened the public's impression of the film, so that more people knew about these movies.

In fact, many more award-winning films have been in obscurity.

Xu Hengzhou has the impression that "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" is such a movie.

Although it won the award, it seemed to be an invalid award, and it did not cause any splash in the country.

But as a person who has watched this movie, Xu Hengzhou was really deeply shocked by this movie at that time.

This kind of shock is not to say that there are particularly big mood swings, but there is a surging but lingering sense of fate.

In short, until now, Xu Hengzhou's judgment on the quality of a movie is still very simple, that is, so that he can feel something that can touch him after watching this movie.

The movie "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" can.

The film has been filmed, and he went to see the final sample before and found that it was not much different from the movie in his memory.

But maybe because he gave enough investment, some of the rougher parts of the original movie disappeared without a trace in this movie.

The overall plot is also more smooth and silky.

Xu Hengzhou also found that compared with the original movie, several actors in this movie have also changed, and compared with the actors of the original movie, they are more suitable for the role of this movie.

Well, the money is well spent.

Spend money effectively, and it's worth it.

The same texture, and even the texture of this movie is much better than the original movie, which makes Xu Hengzhou very satisfied with this movie, and has a strong desire to share, wanting more people to know and see this movie.

That's why this explanation to this new manager can be regarded as a test for him, and it is also an expectation in Xu Hengzhou's own heart.

Xu Hengzhou explained everything clearly, and calmly entered the crew of "Journey to the West" to film.

Liu Yiqian also contacted a new crew here, and she took over the play, but she was still in a process of struggle.

Because she can't understand the logic of the heroine's behavior in this play at all.

The name of the play she took over is "BJ Meets Seattle", which sounds like a thorough literary film.

Liu Yiqian took over this drama for a literary film, and the director of this drama filmed "Ocean Paradise" has just been released in cinemas not long ago.

She went to see this movie on purpose, and it was completely the way of a literary film.

It tells the story of a child with autism and his father.

In the selection of themes, he is also very literary and humanistic, with thinking about the real society.

So after Liu Yiqian saw the name "BJ Meets Seattle" and read the relevant script, she agreed to meet with the director without much hesitation.

Then after listening to the director's vision of this movie, she thought that this movie was very good, and after thinking about it for many days, she chose to take this movie.

As a result, after joining the crew, she suddenly found herself encountering a big pit.

Because the script she got turned out to be just a "concept script".

It's not that this script is just a concept and has no content.

The meaning of this word refers to saying that this script is just a very, very preliminary script, and the director actually said that she would change the script on the first day she joined the group, and then the changed script was unrecognizable, which made Liu Yiqian look stunned for a while.

What the hell is this plot?

What the hell is the script?

What kind of character setting is this?

She can't understand the logic of the heroine's behavior at all, she can't understand this, how can she play this?
