Chapter 134 Subtitle Group, External Sales Department
At 9:30 a.m. on December 20, 2001, it was extremely cold in the Yanjing area, with temperatures of minus two degrees.
Liangmahe Building Fenghua Film and Television Company, in a round of applause, Li Shengyao announced two important things.
"Fenghua Film and Television Company subtitle group was established."
"The external sales department was established."
Li Shengyao had already told his assistant to recruit talents for the company and go to Yenching University of Foreign Chinese to recruit people.
It's been two months, and there are finally results, just a few days ago, the subtitle team of Fenghua Film and Television Company recruited a group of people, there are twenty people, most of them are part-time, and they will be responsible for matching the company's dramas with English, Arabic, Spanish, Portuguese, four languages.
In addition, the company has also recruited six foreign trade talents, among these six people, three of them have excellent English, and the other three can speak Arabic, Spanish and Portuguese.
The six of them are members of the external sales department, and they will be responsible for promoting the TV series of Fenghua Film and Television Company.
Although they are two small departments, Li Shengyao attaches great importance to them, and he flew over from Shanghai to make a strong name for these two departments.
In addition to Li Shengyao, as well as Chen Hao in Yanjing, as well as Zhang Guoli, Deng Jie and his wife came to cheer.
When the employees dispersed, Chen Hao and Deng Jie went hand in hand to talk, and Li Shengyao invited Zhang Guoli to sit down, "Teacher Zhang, drink tea." ”
Zhang Guoli looked at the young employees of Fenghua Film and Television Company, felt an upward vitality, and envied in his heart, "Director Li, your company is really good." ”
"Mr. Zhang is polite, I don't have much management experience, mainly to find a few professionals to help me manage the company."
Zhang Guoli shook his head, "Where, if you do a good job, there is no better young person in the mainland entertainment industry than you." ”
Lao Zhang praised Li Shengyao in front of reporters.
Last time, I took someone to visit the crew, although Li Shengyao did not agree with his suggestion.
This time it's over again, and it's still good talking.
Li Shengyao was puzzled in his heart, and at the same time dealt with it cautiously.
There is no love in this world for no reason.
Lao Zhang is definitely the hottest actor in domestic entertainment now, "Ji Xiaolan with Iron Teeth and Copper Teeth", as well as the two series of "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview", he has more than two TV series every year that can enter the top ten in the annual ratings.
There are also high-scoring dramas such as "My Life" and "Loyalty".
It really wants the market to have a market, and to have a word-of-mouth.
Lao Zhang has definitely made money, and he has status and face, and the female stars are rushing to join the group "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview", and he does not necessarily ask Li Shengyao.
"What is this subtitle group for?"
"It's just with subtitles, won't our drama be accompanied by Chinese characters? I plan to use English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Arabic for the dramas of Fenghua Film and Television Company in the future, so that if foreigners buy it, even if there is no dubbing, they can know what is being said by looking at the subtitles. ”
Lao Zhang raised the teacup and thought about it seriously, "I understand, you want to make it more convenient for foreign audiences to watch Chinese dramas, right?" ”
"That's what it means."
In Li Shengyao's previous life, Korean dramas would take the initiative to subtitle when they were just sold, at first the Peninsula people did it themselves, and then Korean dramas occupied the market, that is, buyers came to subtitles.
In order to show his sincerity, Li Shengyao plans to do subtitles himself.
"And your external sales department?"
"This is to help the company sell dramas."
Zhang Guoli looked at the past puzzled, "Didn't your drama sell to New Matai?" And the big oil country, where do you want to sell it? ”
"There are still a lot of Guo Jia in Asia, just like Philippine Island, Yin Island, Xiya, and Nanmei Guo Jia, those places have no ability to produce TV dramas, TV stations generally buy dramas, and the market is huge."
Zhang Guoli looked at Li Shengyao and didn't know what to say for a while.
In the entire Chinese film and television industry, it is estimated that only Brother Cheng Long can sell his works to those little Guo Jia, who are unknown to many people.
The big guys think they're poor and don't need to deal with it.
But I didn't expect Li Shengyao to be willing to do this business.
If Li Shengyao is really allowed to do it, it will be really amazing, and he will be a great hero to spread culture at that time.
The world is so big, there are so many Guo Jia, with the quality of "Love Hotel" and "Winter Love Song", there will always be one or two Guo Jia who will accept it.
Even if this business is not profitable, it can still be praised and recognized from above.
For a while, Lao Zhang was a little moved.
"Director Li, does your company accept shares?"
Li Shengyao shook his head, "I don't have this plan for the time being." ”
Now is the time for the company to make money, isn't investing in shares just giving people money?
Lee Shengyao does not have this hobby.
Lao Zhang just asked, he has his own company, and he only accepted the Wang brothers to mix a share into it, and others can't.
He was silent for a moment, then thought of something.
If Fenghua Film and Television Company really creates a channel for external sales, and in the future, it will not only sell its own company's dramas, but also help sell other companies' dramas, wouldn't it be equivalent to mastering the road of export sales of Chinese dramas.
Wouldn't other companies that want to make foreign exchange ask for Fenghua Film and Television Company.
In this way, Li Shengyao will inevitably become a big man, and in the TV series, I am afraid that no one can match the power.
So young, so violent.
Lao Zhang didn't know what to say for a while.
Most of his dramas are historical dramas, and they can't be sold, so he naturally doesn't need to beg Li Shengyao.
But some people who shoot modern dramas will inevitably find ways to stammer.
Does he want to wreak havoc?
He immediately denied this idea, and people have been recognized and valued by the above, and the above has the meaning of making Li Shengyao a role model for internal entertainment.
It can be said that as long as Li Shengyao has no mistakes of principle, even if he makes mistakes that all men in the world will make, no one can touch him.
Cheng Long is like this, he is a symbol of Huaxia, and he has always kept it.
He then thought about the purpose of this time.
The Huayi Wang brothers are still unwilling and want to cooperate with Fenghua Film and Television Company.
Zhang Guoli was still thinking about how to say it before he came, but he didn't want to say it at this time, he didn't want to offend Li Shengyao.
He could see that Li Shengyao didn't look down on the Wang brothers.
Also, if you really want to do the sale of Chinese dramas, you must pay more attention to it.
"Director Li, I was an eye-opener today, I really admire your pattern, it's amazing."
Lao Zhang praised again.
He plans to stop helping Hua Yi to spread the word, and have a good relationship with Li Shengyao, maybe he will be able to use it in the future.
After chatting for a while, Lao Zhang took the initiative to leave.
He came over this time, just to say nice things.
It was very crisp and simple.
Li Shengyao didn't know why, but he didn't bother to think about it, anyway, he didn't lose, he had been very cautious and calm just now, and he didn't promise anything.
He didn't have the heart to intrigue.
Now the company's subtitle group and external sales department have been established, which can be regarded as the real preliminary realization of the plan in his heart.
The next thing is to sell the drama, and it must be sold.
Take the path of Korean dramas, so that they have no way out.
And he himself carefully prepared for "Signal" and won awards to improve his qualifications.
The company and the individual go hand in hand.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel excited in his heart, and then walked out of the office, clapped his hands and shouted: "At noon, the company has a big dinner, everyone prepares." ”
