93. Company Expansion
(Thanks to Zi Ruyu for the reward of 1888, as well as the rewards of radish girls and Yangxintian, I will continue to code for the second update.)
At this time, anyone could see that "Mobile Phone" was defeated, and it was completely defeated. The box office gap of 50 million was like a natural barrier between two films. Even if the media found more excuses to exaggerate the battle, it would have no meaning.
The media really shut up honestly, abandoned the previous news of "Dragon and Tiger Fighting" and began to praise the unique style of "The World Without Thieves". After all, this is the most popular topic in this New Year holiday this year.
With the continuous popularity of the world, theaters have also made major adjustments. Two weeks after the film was released, it has continued to increase the number of screens released by the film, but this move has also caused many directors to complain.
Feng Xiaogang's "Mobile Cellphone" is fine. Although he was suppressed by Ye Sumang's "The World Without Thieves", he was still profitable at least. The audience is still buying the works made by this great director, and the theaters did not suppress it. However, some other New Year's movies that collided with "The World Without Thieves" were not so lucky.
After all, the number of screens is limited. If "The World Without Thieves" wants to increase the number of screens, it must be cut out from other movies.
For example, another blockbuster film "Infernal Affairs 3" that Liu Dehua participated in dropped from the beginning of 2,500 screens to less than 1,000 screens, and it has only been less than two weeks since its release. As for the remaining art films, they were even worse. They were ruthlessly abandoned by the theater after two days of release. Many directors were originally ambitious and were waiting to become famous, but they never thought that they would sit at home with abandoned film early the next morning to wipe their tears.
"Ah snee!" Ye Sumang touched his nose. After nearly a year of practicing martial arts, he rarely showed signs of this kind of cold, but he always felt itchy in the past two days.
At this time, he sat in the conference room with Huang Bo, Ning Hao, Zhou Xun and Jiang Xin, who had just joined the company, discussing the decision to reorganize the company.
"Yezi, what do you mean is that the company wants to move and continue to recruit new employees?" Ye Sumang had already said his plan just now. After listening to it, Huang Bo, who was simple in his head, asked the first question.
"The company must move, it is no longer suitable for Tianxia Film and Television." Ye Sumang pointed his finger at the desktop and slowly spoke to everyone present: "As a successful company, regardless of the quality of the employees in the company, the superficial image problem must be done well. I have chosen the office building in the city center and rented the two floors inside. It is now being renovated. By then, when the recruitment of personnel is completed, we will almost be able to move in."
"It's good to change the office location. This old building is really too dilapidated and too crowded." Ning Hao nodded in agreement on the side. As for Zhou Xun and Jiang Xin, they have no say for the time being.
However, the matter soon came to them. As the only two actresses in the company, the establishment of the company's Ministry of Economic Affairs is urgent, but it is difficult to find such talents. After all, as the supervisor of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, not only should one be excellent in knowledge, but more importantly, it is necessary to be able to negotiate and have connections, such as Cai Yinon. With just one sentence, brokerage companies on both sides of the Taiwan Strait will sell her face. This is a typical example of a successful broker.
"What good agent do you have to recommend? After all, this is also related to your own personal interests. The company can provide an excellent platform, but I think you should express your opinions on this kind of experienced talent. We can discuss whether we will invite or poach the corners at that time." Ye Sumang touched his earlobe and asked the two actresses sitting beside him with a smile.
Jiang Xin didn't say anything. She either worked alone or encountered a rogue agency before. There was really no good candidate. Zhou Xun seemed to be reluctant to speak, so she obviously had some thoughts.
"Say, don't be scruples!"
"Then I'll say that I had met a good agent in Xingyao Entertainment Company before, named Joey, but later she was fired because of the company's business philosophy. Sister Joey has worked in this industry for fifteen years and has a lot of connections. Now she should be a free agent. I think if I can, it's best to bring her to the company. I believe that with her ability, she will be able to manage the Ministry of Economic Affairs well."
Zhou Xun is also selfish in recommending Joey so hard. There was a big reason why Joey's departure and her breakup with the company. Joey is an agent who cares more about celebrities between the company and the stars. This is undoubtedly an invisible harm to the company. This is also why Joey has connections but no agency uses her.
With Ye Sumang's genius IQ, Zhou Xun had already understood the implicit meaning before he could finish his speech. He also knew very well that such an agent was not liked by the brokerage company, after all, the ultimate goal of the company is to make a profit.
When Ye Sumang thought of this, he couldn't help but smile. Perhaps this kind of agent is what he needs the most.
The profit focus of Tianxia Film and Television Ye Sumang has never been expected to be on actors. Perhaps this area will have good benefits in the future, but it is not enough to make Ye Sumang pay attention to it now. The recruitment of Zhou Xun and Jiang Xin is also because he values the influence of the two actors more. This is an invisible capital of Tianxia Film and Television.
As a ** production company, the box office of the movie is the most important issue that Ye Sumang should consider. As for the benefits brought by the actors, it may not be as much profit as his film in a year. So he doesn't care which agent cares more about which party. As long as she does not violate the company regulations and can take good care of artists, she will meet the conditions for recruiting talents.
Under Zhou Xuan's nervous gaze, Ye Sumang touched his earlobe and said seriously: "You call Joey now and let her come to the company for an interview tomorrow morning."
"Su Mang, I..." Zhou Xun was excited when she heard Ye Sumang agreeing so readily, and at the same time she felt guilty for the little thought she had just concealed and wanted to apologize. However, before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Ye Sumang waved her hand.
"What is the most expensive in the 21st century? Talent!"
"Hahahahahahaha——!" Ye Sumang's simple quote suddenly made the atmosphere in the office relax. Zhou Xun also tapped Ye Sumang's shoulder very embarrassedly.
Early the next morning, Ye Sumang arrived at the company. Ye Sumang has always attached great importance to talents. According to ancient emperors, the most successful ones undoubtedly paid attention to talents and achieved the final victory. Ye Sumang did not dare to regard himself as an emperor, but as the leader of a company, attaching importance to talents is also one of his compulsory courses.
