"Here is my business card. If you have any ideas, please call me."
Fang Jing took out a business card from his jacket pocket and gave it to Li Yitong. It was written on it as Xu Shi, Chairman of Nanjing Entertainment.
"Hahaha! Don't mind. I didn't bring my business card, so I made do with Xu Shi's. It will have the same effect."
"Are you serious?" Zhao Liying was surprised. Just now she thought Fang Jing was joking.
"Of course, what else do you think? We haven't decided on the second, third, or fourth female lead in our new drama. I think she's quite suitable, so I can consider it."
Fang Jing noticed Li Yitong as soon as he walked in. He felt familiar at first sight, and he only remembered it when Zhao Liying said his name.
This girl in her twenties was indeed Zhao Liying's stand-in in her previous life, but later she seemed to have moved from behind the scenes to the stage.
The first time Fang Jing saw her was when she played Huang Rong in the new version of Legend of the Condor Heroes, in which the male protagonist looked like a waiter in a grocery store.
Li Yitong's acting skills in "Shooting the Condor" are good, but the key is that he is beautiful, and he can be both a vase and a capable person. After the show was aired, he got a lot of praise, and later he even won an award. He then used this as a springboard to star in many roles, and he was able to get ahead.
"I listen to Sister Liying." Looking at Zhao Liying, it was impossible for Li Yitong not to be moved, but he couldn't agree because of the boss's face.
She had been working as a part-time job in Hengdian for the past two years, working hard for three to four thousand yuan a month. Later, she met Zhao Liying and was promoted, and she has been following her ever since.
Zhao Liying would usually take her to the crew when there was a drama. In addition to acting as a stunt double, Zhao Liying would sometimes give her certain small roles, and her salary was much higher than before.
If people run away as soon as they poach someone now, how will they be able to survive in the future?
"Why should you listen to me?" Zhao Liying laughed, "We just have a normal labor relationship at work. If you want to go, just go. But read the terms clearly when signing the contract. Don't be deceived by Fang Jing."
After leading the two of them to sit down, Fang Jing said with a smile: "Our company does not sign long-term contracts, and there will be no liquidated damages in the future. Don't worry."
I looked up and saw that there were more than thirty people originally invited, including screenwriters, cameramen, artists, directors and editors, but now only three or four tables were occupied. The rest hadn't come yet, which meant they really couldn't come.
"Huh? Is this Director Lu?" Zhao Liying asked in confusion as she looked at the old man in short-sleeved and ripped jeans at the same table.
"Hello!" Lu Yang, who was immersed in eating, raised his head to say hello.
He had just arrived in the Magic City. He heard from Fang Jing that there was a dinner party here, so he came over because he had nothing to eat.
"This is the director of our new drama. I spent a lot of effort to invite Director Lu."
"Really? Director Lu, I like your play very much. Please keep an eye on me in the future." Zhao Liying responded with a smile as she rolled her eyes.
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Lu Yang didn't take Zhao Liying's compliment to heart. He has been in this industry for a long time. He just listened to some words. Whoever takes it seriously is a fool.
When he saw someone coming, Fang Jing stood up, raised his glass and said, "Everyone has worked hard during this period. The success of Laojiu Men cannot be separated from you."
"Staying up late to finish the manuscript, staying up late to shoot, I've seen it all. I won't say much else. Everyone who came here today received a red envelope of 10,000 yuan. Those who didn't come will go back to Mr. Xu."
Ten thousand per person is nothing to artists like Haoming, but to ordinary workers it is a month’s salary, which is a lot.
"good!"
"Mr. Fang is so handsome."
"Mr. Fang is domineering!"
"Boss, I like you!"
"Old version, I like you too!"
"Sister Li, when you are over forty, don't join in the fun."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
In this situation, Fang Jing doesn't like to talk about ideals and dreams with employees, nor does he want to say words of encouragement. Giving money is the most practical thing.
When the voice dropped, Fang Jing continued, "I know that many of you here work alone in Hengdian. They work when there is business and are idle when there is no business."
"We are about to start a new drama, and we will shoot more dramas in the future. If you don't mind it, you can bring your resume to Nanjing to interview Mr. Xu."
"If you succeed in the interview, you will be a member of our Nanjing team. Not to mention five social insurances and one housing fund, you will get paid vacations during the New Year and holidays, as well as year-end bonuses. In short, there are many benefits."
In the future, if Fang Jing wants Nan Jing to develop into a film and television company, he must have his own director and shooting team, and there must be more than one.
It doesn’t matter if you support a few people, the most you can do is pay some wages and make more dramas.
What is most important in the 21st century? Talent.
This group of people has been carefully selected by him, and they are all proficient in business. Their inclusion in the team is a big help.
"Mr. Xu, I'll give you a toast. You can do whatever you want with me."
"Mr. Xu, I invited you to a barbecue last time. Please take good care of me in the future."
"Mr. Xu, you know my unicorn arm. The picture never shakes."
…
As soon as Fang Jing finished speaking, the people who came to Xu Shi to toast came one by one. Nanjing is a new company and it is a time when it is short of people. If you don't join now, then who will wait?
As for the company closing down and having no development potential, this problem does not exist at all. Laojiumen, which is now in full swing, is said to have made hundreds of millions.
Not to mention that there is Fang Jing, the God of Wealth, supporting us behind.
"You can do it, Fang Jing, he has a good way of recruiting troops." Zhao Liying said with a smile, "My contract there is about to expire, how about I come to your side too."
"Sister Liying, stop joking. Don't you have your own studio? Why are you here at my little temple?"
Zhao Liying has a contract with a company. She signed the contract a few years ago, but the contract has not yet arrived. After becoming popular in the past two years, she has opened a studio privately. It seems that she will be independent when the contract expires.
"Who said you can't come? I'll put the studio under the umbrella of your company. Normally everyone does their own thing. Just remember to find me when you need to film."
"I was scared to death. I thought you signed a contract with our company."
"It's a beautiful thought." Zhao Liying rolled her eyes at Fang Jing, "Why did you get trapped again after finally regaining your freedom?"
"Okay, I remember, then it's settled." Fang nodded.
Although the cooperation is in the name of a studio and not from Nanjing, rumors about their company are quite good.
Otherwise, no one would recognize Zhang Mingen and Ying Haoming.
…
Half an hour later, after three drinks, Zhao Liying left beforehand, leaving Li Yitong and Zhang Mingen chatting.
Fang Jing walked to Luo Yonghao's table with a cup in hand, sat next to him and said with a smile: "Lao Luo, the new drama will be directed by Lu Yang, do you have any ideas?"
"No, I'm very grateful to Mr. Fang for giving me food to eat." Luo Yonghao smiled dryly, feeling lonely in his heart.
There was no one in the company before, so Fang Jing promised him many benefits to direct Laojiumen. Now that Laojiumen is released and a better new director has been found, he may not be able to do anything in the future.
When all the birds are gone, good bows are hidden. This has been the case since ancient times.
"I think your style is not suitable for martial arts. You are good at shooting suspenseful and joyful urban dramas. This time you will work for Lu Yang as the assistant director. Next year, you will take the lead in the urban dramas produced by the company. How about it?"
"No problem, I will follow the company's arrangements." Luo Yonghao smiled brightly, "I just want to take this opportunity to learn from Director Lu. I couldn't ask for it more."
It turns out that Fang Jing didn’t want to fire him, it was because he was overthinking, "
