Chapter 78 Company Expansion and Signing of New Recruits
In the next period of time, Zhao Zhe, as Jiang Bai's agent, went to talk to Zhang Jizhong's team about cooperation.
However, Zhao Zhe represents Jiang Bai, and Zhang Jizhong naturally does not need to come forward to talk in person.
What's more, Jiang Bai and he have a good relationship, so there is no need to be unhappy because of money.
In the end, the price that Zhao Zhe talked about was 5,000 yuan per episode.
Although it is less than the previous ones, it is better than this work, and the shooting cycle is not long, a total of more than two months.
Jiang Bai felt okay, so he asked Zhao Zhe to agree.
However, on the side of "The Legend of Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", all the scenes in Hengdian were filmed within half a month after Jiang Bai came back, and then Jiang Bai followed the crew to Hebei, and it was completed after only one week of filming.
It was killed by Li Yuanba.
This is also the only person in the story who Yuwen Chengdu can't beat.
It was the end of September.
"Congratulations to Jiang Bai for finishing the game!"
In the hotel, Hu Mingkai sat on the main seat and congratulated.
At this time, the box resounded with warm applause.
Because now that the play has reached the end stage, in order to prevent Lin Zicong from sneaking away again, Hu Mingkai asked everyone to work overtime to catch up with the schedule.
Some time ago, the forest was finished, because everyone could see that the other party had no intention of continuing to stay here, and Lin Zicong was also very aware of this, so the day he left was silent.
Naturally, there was no finale banquet.
But this time, Jiang Bai just completed a filming node, so Hu Mingkai plans to take everyone out to relax and relax together.
After three rounds of drinking, Jiang Bai said goodbye to everyone drunk.
"Director Hu, Director Tan, thank you to the two directors for giving me the opportunity this time, if there is any drama in the future, remember to call me!"
"Brother Huang, I'm in Yanjing, remember to call me when you come back, and we'll get together again then."
"Xiaolong, your kung fu still needs to be practiced well, and I'll see if you have improved next time we meet."
Shi Xiaolong was shocked when he heard this: "Brother Jiang, just spare me, I can't catch up with you in my lifetime!" ”
"It's a matter of people." Jiang Bai smiled.
After eating, Jiang Bai was officially finished.
Because Jiang Bai "died" in the play, Hu Mingkai also gave Jiang Bai a big red envelope.
In this line, the red envelope is also sophisticated.
If it is valued by the director, then the final red envelope may be thicker than others.
Although Jiang Bai didn't know how much Lin Zicong had taken now, it was certain that he was definitely more than the other party.
After finishing the finale, Jiang Bai returned to Yanjing.
It's October and the weather is starting to get colder.
It's just that Jiang Bai is still wearing short sleeves.
It looks a little out of place with the people in their coats on the street.
But Jiang Bai really didn't feel cold at all.
The weather was just right for him.
After coming back, Jiang Bai went home first and slept well, and when he woke up, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon.
But he was woken up by the sound of a phone.
After waking up.
Take a look at the name on it.
Zhao Zhe.
"Hey, is there something wrong with Brother Zhao?"
"It's something." Zhao Zhe said on the phone, "Our company is now gradually on the right track, and with the broadcast of your dramas, we have gradually become a little famous, so I thought that our company should also be more formal, and recently recruited a few people to tell you." ”
Jiang Bai smiled: "Brother Zhao, you can just do the recruitment thing, why do you need to talk to me specifically?" ”
"Then I still have to say it, after all, you are now the second largest shareholder of our company, in addition to the daily operation of the company, recruiting people is also a big expense, I should always inform you, and this time I also found you an assistant to be responsible for your daily life."
"Assistant?" Jiang Bai thought about it.
When I was in the crew before, some actors did bring assistants with them.
There are even people who have a team around them.
Responsible for driving, serving tea and pouring water, responsible for putting on makeup, and responsible for carrying things.
"How much does an assistant pay a month?"
"Not much, 800 yuan a month." Zhao Zhe said.
Jiang Bai thought about it, it was okay, 800 yuan a month is the current normal salary level.
In the past, my sister earned four or five hundred a month, which was also because she had not yet turned regular, but now my sister was transferred to a kindergarten in Suzhou, and her salary could be more than 1,000 a month, not to mention that a bonus would be paid every quarter.
"But Brother Zhao, what kind of assistant did you find for me?"
Hearing this, Zhao Zhe said on the phone: "A little girl, the person is very good, forget it today, tomorrow you come to the company to meet, see if you are satisfied, if you really can't do it, we can find it again, and in addition to your assistant, I also signed two more people, one is a rookie director, and the other is a recent graduate." ”
Jiang Bai was relieved.
As long as it's not a man.
But after hearing Zhao Zhe's last few words, Jiang Bai couldn't help but be a little curious: "Our company's director also signed?" ”
Zhao Zhe smiled: "Of course, there are not many directors who sign now, because most of those well-known directors are affiliated or open their own companies, and then cooperate with those brokerage companies, but in this way, many things are not up to us, but if we have our own director, it will be different, if there is a suitable person in a drama, then you can go on, you don't have to look at other people's faces." ”
Jiang Bai thought for a while: "This is also true, when the time comes, let the director's income be linked to the box office or ratings of the work, but at the same time give the other party a certain amount of freedom, so that the other party can be in his own hands, and the other party is a rookie director, and his own resources are limited, which will make it more convenient for us to cooperate with each other." ”
"That's right." Zhao Zhe said, "I didn't expect you to know a lot about this." ”
Jiang Bai smiled: "If you have more contact, you will naturally understand, then we can consider making some movies or TV series by ourselves in the next step, but it is best to make a small movie, the cost of TV series is generally not too low due to the number of episodes, in comparison, I think comedy is good, usually the cost of comedy does not need to be too high, and if the content is filmed well, the box office will not be low." ”
Zhao Zhe was a little surprised when he heard this.
He didn't expect Jiang Bai to be able to say these words!
That's what he thought before.
But before he could say anything, Jiang Bai continued: "But this is also a test of the director's ability, is this rookie director you found reliable?" Don't spend money to find a donkey dung egg to come back, and you will be blind as soon as you work. ”
"That's not possible, I think he's still pretty good, he directed movies in school before, and he won awards, I've seen that movie, it's pretty good."
"Also, I plan to set up several departments in the company next, one is the performing arts department, which is mainly responsible for the management of the actors, because our company will sign a lot of actors in the future, and there is a special department that is easy to manage, and there is also the screenwriting department, when we have our own screenwriters, we can create our own scripts, and in the future, whether we shoot them ourselves or cooperate with other companies, we can use them.
There is also a director's department, in fact, the ability of many new directors is very good, what they lack is just an opportunity, if we can train a few of our own directors in the future, then it will be completely famous, even if they go out to fly solo in the future, but with the previous friendship, we can also arrange some of our own actors to go in.
There's also the communications and PR departments, which I'm tentatively merging now, and the rest is logistics and stuff like that. ”
"Yes, Brother Zhao, but you must be fine with these."
"That's okay, didn't you say it, you are a shareholder of the company, and speaking of which, our company is now left with only the two of us except for the cleaning sister and the songwen who is still in school, sometimes I can't make up my mind alone, I have to find someone to discuss."
Jiang Bai sighed: "Brother Zhao, I'm only twenty-one years old this year, will you put too much pressure on me like this?" ”
"Come on! I don't know you yet? You kid monkey spirit monkey spirit, this has only been a serious act for more than a year, and the network is about to catch up with me. ”
"Brother Zhao, in fact, I am very introverted, and those interpersonal interactions are forced by the situation."
"Alright, what else are you pretending to be with me? If you're okay tomorrow, come to the company, take a look at your assistant first, and then meet the two people I newly recruited, they are all your fans now, let's talk about the company later. ”
"Okay, then I'll go over tomorrow morning."
"Well, hang up, bye-bye."
......
At night, Jiang Bai lay on the bed thinking about his future.
Zhao Zhe talked to him about the company's operation on the phone before, in fact, Jiang Bai had also thought about it before, although he had signed a contract with the other party for several years as early as the beginning, and Zhao Zhe also gave himself a very generous promise.
But Jiang Bai has always been under the fence before, so he actually doesn't want to do this.
Originally, he thought that he could see how the company was doing after the contract expired, and he could continue to stay here unless it was a particularly good situation.
But even so, Jiang Bai wants to develop himself into a studio model.
It is superficially subordinate to Bailu Media, but they are only cooperative with each other and do not bind each other.
But if Bailu's development is not very good, Jiang Bai feels that it is better for him to stand on his own.
So when he was filming for more than a year, he always tried his best to make friends with people, and even if he came out independently, he could get some money as start-up capital.
But now Zhao Zhe obviously intends to involve himself in the company's operations.
Jiang Bai can probably guess the reason.
In order to open this company, Zhao Zhe almost invested all his net worth, and then set up various departments, which is a lot of expenses.
It is estimated that Zhao Zhe has taken a fancy to the money in his hand.
"Forget it, I'll talk to Lao Zhao tomorrow and see what he thinks."
......
The next day, Jiang Bai came to the company.
I haven't been back for another month, but it's clearly a lot more lively.
The company signboard written by Zhao Zhe is still hanging at the door.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Jiang Bai heard the laughter of the office inside.
After entering the office, Jiang Bai saw that there were already several people here.
Two males and one female.
One of the men, Jiang Bai, still knows.
Li ping.
"Brother Zhao." Jiang Bai greeted Zhao Zhe first.
"Jiang Bai, you came just in time, let me introduce you first, these people will be our colleagues in the future, this one you should know, he used to be a reporter from Yanjing Daily, but now he is a person from our publicity and public relations department.
This is Ning Hao, the very talented rookie director I told you on the phone before, and she is my new assistant for you, named Yang Mi. ”
Jiang Bai looked at a few people, except for Li Ping, whom he knew.
Ning Hao looked a little old, but it was a little different from Huang Bo's old age, and this Ning Hao looked at it with a lot of aura in his eyes.
It's a sign of self-confidence.
Usually this kind of person is either Zhao Kuo who talks on paper, or he really has something in his stomach.
There is no such thing in the eyes of mediocre people.
Finally, Jiang Bai looked at this assistant named Yang Mi.
If the aura in Ning Hao's eyes represents confidence or talent, but the aura in Yang Mi's eyes is completely smart and clear vitality.
The tips of the eyes are slightly raised, but the tails of the eyes are slightly downward.
This is a typical peach blossom eye.
Although the face shape is a little baby fat, but today's Yang Mi is carefully dressed, just the right makeup and the agility of the eyes will cover up this not too obvious shortcoming, although the height of about one meter six or five is not as good as some tall beauties, but it is definitely not low, the delicate and close-fitting black suit, the slender waist lined is more graceful, a pair of long legs are thin and straight, as if half of the comics came out, making Yang Mi give people the first feeling that he is childish, but it is fascinating.
At a glance, in terms of appearance, Jiang Bai was very satisfied with this assistant.
"Hello, I'm Jiang Bai."
After Zhao Zhe's introduction, Jiang Bai also introduced himself.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm your fan! I watched you play the six groups of serious cases before, and I was shocked at the time, and even later I downloaded this paragraph and watched it repeatedly, but then I watched your play of Ling Hu Chong and became a fan of yours completely. ”
Ning Hao hurriedly came up and shook hands and said.
"Thank you for liking my work, but Brother Zhao said before that you are a very talented director, so welcome to join the company, if you need help in the future, just say it."
"You're polite, I'm just a newcomer now, and I hope Mr. Jiang can help me more in the future."
Subsequently, Yang Mi took the initiative to greet Jiang Bai again.
"Hello Brother Jiang, my name is Yang Mi, and I will be your assistant in the future."
Listening to the other party's voice, Jiang Bai suddenly had a strange feeling.
It's the kind of thing that sounds like it goes a little well with the shape of the face, but it's a little bit less compatible.
I can't tell how Jiang Bai is, if I have to describe it.
It's probably something like ...... Colorful black?
