In one of the most prosperous CBDs in Jiangbei, a 100-meter-high building towers into the sky, standing in the middle of the city like a landmark building.
And this building is indeed a landmark building. This building is the largest entertainment company in the entire Jiangbei and the entire Great China.
This is an entertainment company that has been operating since the 1980s. The artists signed by it include many superstars, movie kings, movie queens, singers, singers, and even the emperors and queens of Potou's historical era.
wait.
As these people get older, they produce fewer and fewer works, but their influence is still circulating on the Internet.
Every passerby who hears the names of these people will be in awe.
In the top-level office of the largest entertainment company, a middle-aged man named Lin Qin rubbed his forehead, looking a little uninterested.
The young and beautiful secretary next to him asked with concern: "President, are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm just older."
Lin Qin is already sixty years old. He can retire at this age, but as the president of a company, especially a listed company, he cannot retire casually.
Because it is a listed company, he cannot even leave the company to his son.
"President, this is the quarterly report for the last six months. Please take a look."
The secretary always held a piece of software in his hand, waiting for Lin Qin to watch it.
Lin Qin took it casually. He hadn't looked at the report for a long time. Since he started to work, these tasks have been handed over to his subordinates.
The bodyguard's face was completely red, which was a bit shocking.
"The film market is losing money, the music market is losing money, I was hospitalized for two years, the company has let you ruin it like this. Have a meeting, have a meeting!"
Lin Qin made a bold move and wanted to have his first meeting after being discharged from the hospital.
The content of this meeting is very simple. I just want to ask the people below how they do things and why the company has been running a financial deficit for the past six months.
During a meeting, the heads of various departments were walking on thin ice and remained silent.
Although Lin Qin is older, he is definitely not old and confused.
This company has always been dominated by him. Because of this, Lin Qin still has prestige in the entire company.
Faced with this situation, everyone could only say helplessly: "President, times have changed."
"What are the times that have changed? Those who are doing this are younger than me, right? I can try and observe the things of modern young people, why can't you? Times have changed, don't you know that they have changed? What do you do for food?
As for the Analysis Department, let’s analyze why we have a fiscal deficit!”
Fiscal deficit is a very dangerous thing for a company.
The same is true whether it is a large company or a small company.
Therefore, analysis departments are very important.
Because if a company is not profitable, it will have a fiscal deficit, so why is the company not making a profit?
Only when the problem is found can the company solve it.
Sure enough, the head of the analysis department stood up tremblingly, coughed and said: "In the past year, our company produced fifteen movies, ten of which were losses, and five of which were profitable. Only one of them made a profit that exceeded the investment.
Just more than twice. As for songs, there have always been gold-level singles on the market, but just the copyright share of the songs is obviously not enough for our company. In one year, no song has reached platinum status.
Record level, so whether it is the song market or the movie market, we are in a state of loss."
“What’s the profit direction?”
"In other profit-making directions, investment has been at a loss. Internet entertainment is still being tried. The production of games takes a long time and the investment is relatively high. It is not listed yet."
"In other words, our company's losses are entirely due to inaction in terms of quality in the film market and music market. Where is the director of the planning department? Do you have any explanation for this matter?" Lin Qin took responsibility in one sentence.
People were put on fire.
The director of the planning department stood up and sighed: "President, our company's musicians, screenwriters and directors are all getting older and cannot keep up with the current trend of young people, so the quality of both songs and movies is declining, but
Because of their historical status, we cannot touch them, and we can only use their works leisurely."
"Let them take a break for half a year. All creators over 50 years old, including directors, should take a break for half a year. Regardless of whether they have excellent scripts or not, if they want to film them, let them pay for them. From next time, we will focus on using young creatives.
By the way, which companies are the most active in the film and music markets recently?"
"There are two companies, one with sufficient resources, called Marrow Interactive Entertainment. Because of the internal operations of a movie, many shareholders of the company were irrational, but their president boldly hired new people, spent money to buy scripts, and successfully produced a three-part movie.
There is also a movie with a box office of 1 billion, which is a small company called Honghuo Media Co., Ltd. that has just been established a year ago. The president of their company is a young man named Chu Han. This company... is a bit evil. "
"What should I say?" Lin Qin immediately looked at the supervisor, his eyes full of sharpness.
Seeing Lin Qin's gaze, the supervisor trembled and said: "This young man entered the film market with a small-cost film and opened his own company, but he is also an original musician and has helped support many new singers.
Let them obtain platinum-level records, serve as directors and screenwriters, and shoot three movies, each of which has a box office of more than 500 million. The first movie has a box office of 500 million with an investment of 1 million. The most recent movie Dawn
It even got a box office of 3.8 billion."
"This young man also participates in variety shows. Every new song he produces has reached platinum sales after being put on the music software. Now he is considered a hot star in the entertainment industry."
Lin Qin smacked his lips and said, "Genius."
"That's right...."
"Then acquire their company. Maqiao Interactive Entertainment is too big and difficult to acquire, but a small company that has been established for a year should not be big enough. Buy it and let that little guy work for us!" Lin Qin said with a big hand
With one wave, the decision was confirmed.
"But CEO, such outstanding talents have their own ideas. I guess he won't be willing to be acquired by us."
"Then squeeze, squeeze their resources so that they can't do anything. This won't be difficult for us, right? The little guy has just entered society, and we need to let him know what the dangers of the world are. That's it, company
Internally, be brave enough to hire new people. Externally, focus on acquiring Honghuo Media Company. It’s best to recruit that little guy in their company. Let’s break up the meeting.”
