Chapter 311: Yes, you have to add money
The success of Fairy Sword and the martial arts trilogy agreed to cooperate between Zhang Songnian and Menghua Entertainment made the people of Golden Feather Entertainment feel a strong crisis.
This year is indeed a very successful year for Jin Yu, whether it is a movie or a TV series, it is basically more flowering, especially the projects led by Zhang Songnian, which have made a lot of money, and brought countless benefits and honors to Jin Yu.
But today's Zhang Songnian's identity is not the same, and the relationship between the two parties has been in a state of imminent separation since Zhang Songnian left.
Zhang Songnian may have chosen to be bound to Golden Feather Entertainment because of friendship and interests, but the last time Zhang Songnian raised the issue of Condor copyright and was rejected by Golden Feather Entertainment, Li Zhengming had a feeling in his heart that the friendship between Zhang Songnian and the company may still exist, but it is no longer the same as before, and if you have to say it, the cooperation between the two sides may be more about interests.
Especially after Zhang Songnian and Menghua Entertainment reached a cooperation, Li Zhengming's inner feeling is even stronger.
The active and passive relationship between the company and Zhang Songnian has changed, and now Jin Yu Entertainment wants to stabilize its position in the entertainment industry, it must need Zhang Songnian's support, if there is no phenomenal hit drama like Xianjian to support, there is always a gap between Jin Yu Entertainment and Xingcan.
On the other hand, Zhang Songnian, now he is alone but fearless.
After all, his studio is not like the three major companies, and he must pursue a name that sounds like a giant in the entertainment industry, and now the entire entertainment industry has reached a consensus, as long as it is Zhang Songnian's script, there is nothing that is not popular.
Now it is Jin Yu Entertainment that needs Zhang Songnian, not Zhang Songnian who needs Jin Yu.
This kind of change in the relationship alignment somewhat makes Li Zhengming a little unaccustomed, you must know that Zhang Songnian was still dug out by himself, and he never thought that in two or three years, the lazy guy who fished all day is now the only true god in the entertainment industry.
But even if you don't get used to it, if Jinyu Entertainment wants to gain an advantage in the field of TV dramas next year, the relationship with Zhang Songnian will inevitably not be too stiff.
Golden Feather Entertainment has made this stupid mistake more than once in this matter, if this time Jin Yu Entertainment still misses Zhang Songnian's works, then Golden Feather Entertainment will not be able to continue to consolidate its company's position in the entertainment industry next year.
The strength of the three major companies is not much different, in the past competition in the music or film and television industry, everyone basically fought back and forth, Xingcan Entertainment's heritage may be deeper, so the winning side is greater than the other two companies, but it is not so big.
And this situation was completely rewritten after Zhang Songnian came to prominence in Jinyu Entertainment.
For the current three major companies, everyone knows very well that Zhang Songnian is the X factor of the previous competition between several companies.
Those who win Zhang Songnian win the world, Li Shouzhao has always thought so before, and has always practiced so.
It's a pity that Li Jianhua chose the opposite path to his Lao Tzu, and successfully brought the three major companies back to the same starting line.
If it weren't for the original Li Shouzhao who successfully tied up that trace of friendship with interests and affection at the last moment of Zhang Songnian's departure, coupled with Zhang Songnian's habit of dealing with the world with harmony as the precious, it would be basically impossible for Golden Feather Entertainment to have this project of Xianjian this year.
Then there was the copyright issue of the film and television adaptation of martial arts, and the choice of the board of directors of Golden Feather Entertainment successfully broke off the friendship between the two parties.
Then what remains between the two parties is the exchange of interests, but for Zhang Songnian, the exchange of interests is the same as anyone else, and it does not necessarily have to be Jinyu Entertainment.
After all, they are also the three major companies, and Menghua Entertainment is more generous.
Zhang Songnian is holding the initiative in his own hands this time, whether Jinyu Entertainment wants to continue the cooperation of the Fairy Sword series, Zhang Songnian actually doesn't care so much.
If Jin Yu is unwilling, then he can find Menghua Entertainment, or even other companies, he has a lot of choices now.
On the contrary, it is Golden Feather Entertainment, if it can't come out with works of the same level as Fairy Sword and Infernal Affairs next year, then in the confrontation with Menghua Entertainment next year, it will inevitably occupy a big disadvantage.
The worse news is that according to Zhang Songnian, there are two more works behind Condor Shooting that are being prepared for publication, and all of them have reached cooperation with Menghua Entertainment, and the film and television adaptation of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is just the beginning.
Li Zhengming doesn't believe that the TV series adapted from "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" can be worse, even if it is not as good as Jinyu Entertainment in terms of ratings, it is estimated that it will not be much worse, and Menghua Entertainment can come up with three such works next year!
If only they were a little more efficient.
Li Zhengming's words made the members of the board of directors of Golden Feather Entertainment feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.
It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
When you get used to Golden Feather Entertainment becoming the No. 1 entertainment company in the entertainment industry, everyone naturally doesn't want your position as the hegemon to be affected or challenged.
First, the title is very tempting no matter where it is or at what time it is.
At the board meeting of Jinyu Entertainment, Li Zhengming watched everyone hotly discuss Zhang Songnian's matter.
"This person is really not good, it's good that we Jinyu Entertainment went out, and he is also a former shareholder, so he doesn't give any room for negotiation, which is somewhat excessive."
"That's not it, I haven't forgotten to dig the well, and I don't want to think about who held him to this point in just two or three years."
"Young people are a little floating, I feel that this matter can still be discussed, but I still have to talk about love."
"I shouldn't have let him go easily in the first place, but now it's good, my backhand is to turn my head and run into the arms of my rival, hey."
The voices of everyone were getting louder and louder, and Li Zhengrong, who was also a shareholder, sat in the corner on the side, listening to everyone's complaints about Zhang Songnian, his face was gloomy and terrible.
Li Zhengming, who was next to him, chuckled even more inwardly after noticing Li Zhengrong's face.
Li Zhengrong does not occupy many shares in the company, but in terms of qualifications and status, Li Zhengrong can be said to be the oldest in this board meeting.
Li Zhengrong stood up silently, and after glancing at the people who were discussing Zhang Songnian just now, he turned around and walked out of the conference room directly.
In fact, after Li Zhengrong stood up, everyone had already quieted down.
I don't know who started the discussion of Zhang Songnian first, maybe he was too involved in the discussion, and even made everyone forget that Zhang Songnian's father-in-law is Li Zhengrong.
Looking at the figure of Li Zhengrong pushing open the door, the entire conference room was suddenly silent.
Li Zhengming glanced at everyone with hatred, and then followed Li Zhengrong's figure.
If you don't explain the words of the group of people on the board of directors today, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Li Zhengrong to explain it, let alone Zhang Songnian.
Li Jianhua sat in the center of the conference table in a bit of a daze, and it was only a minute or two from the heat in the conference room to the silence, and Li Jianhua had not even had time to express any of his opinions, and the meeting seemed to be about to end.
But now it seems that if this meeting ends here, it may be really difficult for Golden Feather Entertainment next year.
Li Jianhua took a deep breath, then stood up and looked around at everyone, and then said in a low voice: "Regarding Zhang Songnian's problem, there is a reason for the incident, and the responsibility lies more with me, the discussion you just now is somewhat disrespectful, even if Zhang Songnian is no longer a person from Jinyu Entertainment, but we can still fight side by side as partners, and the behavior of others behind our backs is not a gentleman's doing." ”
After a pause, Li Jianhua continued: "As for the sequel project of the fairy sword that Mr. Li said just now, I support Mr. Li's opinion, the copyright can be given to Zhang Songnian, but we can't give the ratings to Menghua Entertainment, or if everyone thinks that our company has full confidence to surpass the three martial arts adaptations of Menghua Entertainment, we can also be tougher." ”
After Li Jianhua's words fell, everyone sat dry and said nothing.
Just kidding, just look at the publication sales of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in the last two months, in this era, it can still sell tens of millions of copies in such a short period of time, and in the bookstore, except for the three-year college entrance examination and five-year simulation, there should be no other book that sells better than him.
If the film and television drama of Condor Shooting is changed properly, even if it is used to touch the phenomenal hit of the fairy sword, it is not impossible.
Everyone was still silent, Li Jianhua smiled, and then said: "It seems that everyone doesn't have this confidence, since there is no confidence, let's vote, the rules are actually used to break, in the past, Jin Yu Entertainment never let go of the copyright because he was the best screenwriter himself, and now there are people who are better than our Jin Yu screenwriter team, so we have to accept this fact, in fact, this fact is not so difficult for us to accept." ”
After saying this, Li Jianhua was still smiling, but there was a hint of bitterness on his smile.
Once upon a time, Li Jianhua firmly believed that Golden Feather Entertainment could sit firmly in the position of the leader of the entertainment industry by relying only on the company's background and his own ability.
But when he really sat in this position, Li Jianhua knew how difficult it was for his father before.
also understands why Li Shouzhao has been staring at Zhang Songnian to collect wool.
Because Zhang Songnian is far higher than most departments in the company in terms of efficiency and quality.
A person can be used as a person in one department or even two departments, who doesn't love such an employee.
It's a pity that he understood this truth too late, and even before he understood this truth, he pushed this efficient person out with his own hands.
The more Li Jianhua reflected during this time, the more he wanted to slap his previous self.
He only hates that he insisted on going his own way now, didn't listen to his old father's words, and had a good relationship with Zhang Songnian, otherwise if today's Jinyu Entertainment has the blessing of Zhang Songnian and Li Xingruo, Menghua Entertainment and Xingcan Entertainment will not be able to see the taillights of Jinyu Entertainment at all.
During this time, Li Jianhua has always chosen to let Li Zhengming contact and communicate with Zhang Songnian, just to test Zhang Songnian's thoughts and see if there is still room for maneuver.
But today's incident almost didn't make Li Jianhua scold his mother.
As the general manager of the company, his qualifications are not high, and even if he accuses everyone, he can only express his dissatisfaction euphemistically.
But fortunately, everyone here knew that it was their own fault just now, so everyone followed Li Jianhua's euphemism and gave them the steps, and by the way, they also praised Li Jianhua.
"Well, what Mr. Li said is not unreasonable, in terms of the level of screenwriters, Zhang Songnian is indeed the only existence, and it is appropriate to have privileges."
"Indeed, and the name of Fairy Sword has already started, if we can continue to shoot, the ratings will not be less than now, if we can suppress Menghua Entertainment next year, it is not impossible for us to sacrifice a little copyright."
"The rules really should be broken appropriately, Mr. Li has a high opinion."
“.”
Most of the members of the board of directors actually have prejudices against Li Jianhua, after all, since Li Jianhua really became the general manager of the company, except for relying on a few projects left by Zhang Songnian to generate huge returns, Li Jianhua's other aspects of work have had a mere response.
It is precisely for this reason that in the last few meetings of the board of directors, decisions that require a vote of the board of directors have been rejected, and almost all the proposals put forward by Li Jianhua, whether they are right or wrong, have been rejected by this group of people.
Because of this incident, Li Jianhua felt more and more that his situation was difficult.
Li Shouzhao gave himself this position under pressure, but if he failed to prove himself, it would not only be a shame for himself, but also a loss for Li Shouzhao's face.
But this time, obviously everyone knew that they were at a loss, and while going down the steps along Li Jianhua's euphemism, they also held Li Jianhua by the way.
This was something Li Jianhua did not expect.
Li Jianhua thought about it for a while, and after a whimble, he continued to take the opportunity to propose: "Zhang Songnian's copyright issue, I agree with Li Zhengming and Li Zong's suggestion, who is in favor and who is against?" ”
"Agreed."
"I agree."
"Reasonable."
“.”
After looking at everyone's reactions, Zhang Songnian nodded with satisfaction.
"I helped Mr. Li and Mr. Li, who went out just now, vote in favor of them, and now everyone has been passing this suggestion, if no one objects, then I will default to everyone's opinion on this matter and Zhang Songnian."
After a pause, Li Jianhua continued: "If that's the case, then we at Golden Feather Entertainment will have to reconsider how to communicate with Zhang Songnian about the sequel to Fairy Sword and even the partnership between more follow-up projects." ”
——
Zhang Songnian was not too surprised that Jinyu Entertainment would find him again, but when he heard Li Zhengming say that he hoped to seek more cooperation opportunities, Zhang Songnian said that he was righteous and stern.
"Yes, but you have to pay more." (End of chapter)
