The group structure is clear, and everyone present will receive equity, so many of the company's problems are closely related to their interests.
For example, career issues.
Nowadays, film and television companies have three types of crews: movies, TV and variety shows.
After the conglomeration, these three major sectors will be independent. People like Chen Kaige, Tang Jili, Ning Hao, Wen Muye and their crews will definitely join or be affiliated with Bright Times Pictures.
Zhang Jizhong, Yu Min, Zhao Jian, Kong Sheng, Li Hu, Zheng Xiaolong and other people and the crew will definitely join or be affiliated with Brilliant Era Century Culture.
Those who engage in variety shows must also join or be affiliated with the Brilliant Era Starry Sky Culture.
Literary companies and special effects companies are easy to handle, as long as screenwriters and technicians join respectively.
Special effects companies are extremely professional, and it is impossible for non-technical professionals to join, and the company will not randomly allocate jobs to a group of people who do not understand technology to do special effects.
How do you choose or distribute the rest?
This is a big problem.
The root of this problem is, to say the least, a matter of core interests.
Brilliant Era Century Culture, which is engaged in TV, is the one that most people want to join. Brilliant Era’s TV business is the most profitable, and it has also gained brand influence over the past few years. Joining this company that specializes in television seems to be the most comfortable
.
Starry Sky Culture, which is engaged in variety shows, is not bad. It has its own variety show park and can form a closed loop of production. The first season of "I Am an Actor" also has a good start. It can be said that the future is promising. Joining this company can also see the future.
But Bright Times Creative Literature and Bright Times Pictures...
The former is a screenwriter, where does the profit come from?
The latter is involved in movies. The company currently has a small-budget film called "Crazy Stone" and the series "Crazy Racing" is about to be released, but it is also a small-budget, large-invested "At the Gate" and has not yet seen results.
In other words, if you join a TV or variety show company, the equity gained will be of high value immediately.
If you join a literary company or a film company, the value cannot be seen for the time being, or it is very low.
Perhaps, with the collective help of Brilliant Times, it will not be difficult for the film company to develop, but it will take one or two years or even longer, and it will take one or two years for the equity in it to realize its value.
As for literary companies, due to the sluggish situation in the screenwriting industry, they cannot see the specific value of this company.
For several days, in addition to intensive discussions on work classification, salary benefits, department planning and other issues in each company, the discussion on personnel allocation was even more intense.
"The global box office profits generated by cooperating with Macron's movies will be attributed to Bright Times Films."
That morning, after the administrative front desk had poured the tea and left it, Chu Xuan made a speech to address the issues that management was most concerned about.
Teamwork is effective. During several days of discussions among a group of people with rich work and management experience, organizational details and some loopholes within the group structure were discovered and resolved.
In the past few days, after the meeting, he, Liu Yifei, Liu Xiaoli, Hua Jie, Han Sanping and others were working with the head office management every night to complete the structural system and complete and formulate the most complete and detailed group charter.
They also discussed the issues that the management on the other side was struggling with.
Based on the already successful TV and variety shows, we can just develop step by step after breaking away from the film and television company. This is a bright future.
However, the company has not yet made a breakthrough in the film field. As the management has been worried these days, the value of equity in joining a film company is not high.
Even if the film industry develops, the domestic box office market will remain the same.
The cost of making a commercial film is already very high. The total box office is only 400 to 500 million yuan. It is unlikely to be more in the past few years. This is an estimate.
So after the benefits created by a movie are divided layer by layer, the final dividends distributed to the equity beneficiaries will definitely be small, which is completely incomparable with TV and variety shows.
After their discussion, they decided to merge Macron's profits into the film company and rely on global box office to increase the equity value of the film company.
Macron has a strategic cooperation with the Bright Times Corporation. When the time comes, the Corporation will unilaterally sign a dividend transfer contract with the film company.
"Let me tell you, the bosses will definitely solve it this way."
"The company cooperates with Macron on movies, and Bright Times Pictures also develops the movie business, so it is reasonable for the two to communicate with each other."
"Although the global box office has not yet achieved results, at least there is hope. Not only us, but also the staff of the film company are working hard. Otherwise, everyone will envy those who make TV and variety shows, and it will be difficult to stimulate their enthusiasm for making movies.
"
Representative Chu Xuan made a speech and made a decision, which calmed the hearts of some people present.
While the domestic box office market has not yet opened up, the temptation of global box office is still great.
Even if the company has no actual results in the global box office, it has already opened up the channels of Hollywood, and the future blueprint of the film company is promising.
In this way, joining a TV and variety show company can make the equity immediately valuable, while joining a film company is equivalent to betting on a promising future.
At least now, people who originally didn't want to join the film company have become interested in joining because of this decision.
"I think I need to talk in depth about the company Bright Times Creative Literature, and also talk about the closed-loop business relationship of the entire collective after the groupization."
After hearing what Chu Xuan said, everyone in the room became silent.
"After the conglomeration, the resource allocation is very clear, and the business areas of each company are very clear. Those who engage in variety shows do variety shows, those who engage in movies do movies, those who engage in television engage in television, those who manage artists manage artists, and those who develop theater chains can develop theater chains.
Cooperate with each other but don’t interfere with each other.”
Everyone nodded. Groupization is a redistribution process after resource integration. It is an overall plan for the head office to maintain the basic position and allow the subsidiaries to develop in an all-round way. It will improve both resource utilization and effective management.
"Whether it's a movie or a TV show, all of them require scripts."
"In the film and television industry, many people think that screenwriters are not important. We will not talk about this issue here, but no one can deny that without a script, it would be impossible to make movies and TV shows."
Everyone nodded slightly. It is true that screenwriters have a low status, but it is also true that movies and television are indispensable for scripts created by screenwriters.
From the company's decision to open a separate company for screenwriters, it can be seen that the company attaches great importance to the profession of screenwriters.
And seeing that Chu Xuan is now focusing on screenwriting, is there a deeper plan for establishing a literary company?
"The Creative Literature of the Brilliant Era aims to create a creative palace for screenwriters. In addition to engaging in research on the screenwriting industry, it also needs to have a core productivity."
"As I said a few days ago, all the novel, film and television copyright resources acquired by the head office at home and abroad in recent years are used as inventory by literary companies."
"What is inventory? Things placed in a warehouse will lose their value if they are just placed in a warehouse."
"If a literary company wants to reflect this value, it must adapt them into scripts and then turn them into films."
"In the past, it was usually a certain director or a certain producer who liked a work, and then the screenwriter was asked to adapt it."
"But now within Bright Times, I want to change this situation."
"Whether directors and producers like novels or not, screenwriters from literary companies will also have to adapt them and convert the novel inventory into script inventory. This is the core productivity of the literary company."
"This..." The whole audience was in an uproar, everyone was in disbelief.
Regardless of whether the director and producer like it or not, the screenwriter still has to adapt the work?
There are hundreds or even thousands of novels in stock, regardless of whether they are valuable or not, are they all adapted into scripts?
What is this operation?
What if the adapted work is garbage?
What if the adapted work does not meet the market?
What’s the use of adapting works that can’t be adapted into films?
Or the adapted work has no commercial value, so what’s the point?
They have never heard of any company in the country... no, around the world that allows screenwriters to adapt any work into a script regardless of its value.
Chu Xuan's actions broke their understanding. What was this for?
"I was surprised when I first heard about Mr. Chu's decision." Han Sanping looked at the crowd and said, "This is a precedent."
Everyone nodded, this was indeed the first of its kind, and they had never heard of such a thing.
Han Sanping added: "From the perspective of the nature of industry at home and abroad, foreign film and television industrialization focuses on machine efficiency, using machines to replace people to increase production capacity."
"Our country attaches great importance to humanities. This is the need of our national conditions."
"So, based on such national conditions, how to train screenwriters? How to train screenwriters who are in line with the industrialization of film and television in the bright era?"
Han Sanping raised a finger: "In one sentence, give them value."
The people present fall into thinking, give them value, embody humanistic society, and then what?
"As we all know, in our country's screenwriting industry, if you are alive, you will have a job. Those screenwriters who are not working will not be able to make a living for a year and a half."
"Once you get a job and start working, your thinking is still stuck a year and a half ago. How can screenwriters progress in this situation? How can they keep up with the times? Let alone industrializing screenwriting, which requires keeping up with the times."
"After a literary company is established, it will definitely be necessary to recruit screenwriters, and Mr. Chu's decision solves this problem. Regardless of whether directors and producers need it or not, the screenwriting team established by the company must practice on the works."
"Only when the screenwriters maintain their creative thinking and the company maintains a creative atmosphere at all times can we create the most vivid culture of the times."
The four major screenwriters of Brilliant Era, Liu Yi, Yang Dongxu, Ye Junzi and Gong Geer, were all present.
When Chu Xuan discussed this matter with them in private over the past few days, they were surprised and also unspeakably moved.
Perhaps Chu Xuan only focused on the actual feelings and development of screenwriters in order to better develop the industrialization of screenwriting.
But for those of them who are screenwriters, such a decision is heartwarming, can reverse the centripetal force of screenwriters across the country, and can build the company Bright Times Creative Literature into a national holy land for screenwriters.
"Then if the adapted script is useless, wouldn't it be a waste of resources?" Someone raised an objection.
Chu Xuan looked at this person and said: "There is a saying called always be prepared. Just like candidates will always do a lot of exercises before the college entrance examination. They cannot not just do it because they are not sure whether it will be useful. Candidates must always be prepared.
Think about the problem, and good screenwriters must also maintain creative thinking at all times."
"As for value, it depends on which perspective you look at it."
"From the perspective of the commercial value of the script, if the script is useless, it is indeed a waste of resources."
"From the perspective of humanistic value, no matter whether the scripts created by the screenwriting team are useful or not, the company will provide them with salary packages, performance bonuses and corresponding benefits, ensuring that their efforts will be rewarded."
"As far as the company is concerned, whether the scripts are of any use is another matter, but the resources and money spent have resulted in batches of highly creative screenwriters, thus creating high-quality scripts one after another to fill the company's script inventory."
Chu Xuan stopped to drink tea, and everyone understood.
When Chu Xuan treats screenwriters, his value considerations shift from the perspective of commercial interests to caring for humanistic interests. Regardless of whether the company's screenwriters can create commercial value, such a decision can always cultivate truly outstanding screenwriter talents.
Only these truly outstanding screenwriting talents can better create an industrialization of screenwriting in line with national conditions.
But in this undertaking, the company is bound to spend a lot of resources and financial resources.
Chu Xuan dared to do this for the first time, and many people present also admired his courage and innovative thinking.
"Also." Chu Xuan put down the teacup and said, "You only see the waste of resources when the scripts are useless, but you don't see the chain reaction of production capacity of scripting the novel inventory."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Everyone raised their eyebrows slightly, what is the ripple effect on the production capacity of novel inventory scripting?
“Do you need a script to make a movie?”
"Do you need a script to make a TV show?"
"Does script planning take a lot of time?"
Everyone was startled, and a ray of excitement could not help but overflow, and they suddenly understood the huge benefits brought by Chu Xuan's decision.
"The novel inventory is scripted. If teachers want to make a work in the future, they can just go to the literary company to find the script. As for which novel the script is adapted from, it doesn't matter at all."
"Literary scripts, shooting scripts, and storyboard scripts are clearly laid out in front of you. If you choose one, you only need to communicate with the corresponding screenwriting team to improve it."
"When the literary company's script inventory reaches a certain level, future TV and film productions will be able to avoid the cumbersome script planning process."
"By then, the production capacity efficiency of Bright Times Century Culture and Bright Times Pictures will be greatly improved."
With a "pop", someone patted the thigh passionately, looking at the commercial value. Why didn't you think of this?
A TV series requires half a year of script planning, half a year of auditioning actors and filming, and half a year of post-production. It takes a total of one and a half years to complete the production.
Now, with a click, there is no need for script planning, and we can start directly from auditioning actors, saving more than one-third of the time.
One TV series saves half a year, two TV series takes one year, three, four... This not only greatly improves production efficiency, it is simply a qualitative leap.
"Literary companies provide script inventory, which is production."
"Television movies are produced efficiently, which is processing and packaging."
"As processing and packaging become more efficient, artists will have more film and television resources. Incidentally, there will be more endorsements and announcements. This will trigger the first round of production capacity sales."
"As film production capacity increases, the influence of theater distribution in the country will gradually increase, and the theater chains of the Brilliant Era will have a greater say. This will trigger the second round of production capacity sales."
"With the increase in TV and movie production capacity, the media group's publicity business, marketing business, copyright sales business and even endorsement agency business will expand to a greater extent. This will trigger the third round of production capacity sales."
"To sum up, the literary company is engaged in basic production, scripting the novel inventory, and the entire collective ultimately benefits."
In just a few words, Chu Xuan explained the closed-loop production, processing, and sales of the grouped company very thoroughly. Everyone had a closed-loop structure of the group's production capacity in their minds.
The people present finally understood that Chu Xuan's decision not only showed humanistic care for screenwriters, but also gave a long-term boost to the industrialization of screenwriters. It also made the literary company the core of the group's business, and then made the entire
Collectively, we have enjoyed the dividends of screenwriting reform.
The industrialization of Haolaiwu Film and Television is very powerful, but where is its power? High-tech machines, high-end studios, top-notch special effects, and the Fuhua Road assembly line factory with unified Western standards.
However, Haolaiwu also needs to coordinate scripts and spend a lot of time on this.
But what about us? Where is the direction of film and television industrialization?
Chu Xuan told them that the industrialization of screenwriting is the most basic and important link in the entire industrialization of film and television!
Once this business is completed, the efficiency of the entire group industry will be greatly improved!
Chu Xuan's decision gave the screenwriters a humanistic value in their work. This humanistic care was in line with the national conditions and improved the overall production efficiency?
China's construction speed is world-famous. This is the industrial speed of a big country, the construction needs of a big country, and the country's current key national conditions.
This is the country's industrial infrastructure, and the film and television industry is also a basic industry.
Chu Xuan's decision to script the novel inventory, once it leads to a qualitative improvement in the efficiency of film and television cultural infrastructure, wouldn't this also coincide with the trend of a big country that "which company is stronger in industrial construction, climb up and look far into the east"?
In the past, the industry always said that China wanted to industrialize film and television, but no one pointed out a direction, and most of them were just rhetoric.
But now, Chu Xuan's daring to think and act, and this pioneering practical decision, let them see the direction, a direction that belongs to the industrialization of Chinese film and television!
Everyone present was older than Chu Xuan, but the way they looked at Chu Xuan inexplicably aroused some admiration, almost as if they were looking at a spiritual leader.
