Chapter 291: On meritorious deeds, the bonuses are attractive
The movie "Wulin Gaiden" is about to exceed 1 billion, and it is also expected to win the third place in this summer's summer season.
Shanhe executives were beaming with joy. The producer takes almost 30% of the box office of a movie. Even if some taxes are deducted, the movie "Wulin Gaiden" can bring the company a box office share of at least 300 million.
If combined with the sale of various copyrights for later films and done properly, the total revenue of the "Wulin Gaiden" movie is expected to approach or even exceed 500 million.
Although such a large amount of income is still not as good as Zuo Le's profits from filming TV series, it is enough to dispel the resentment of some companies due to Zuo Le's move to the film field.
Chairman Zuo Da is still wise, powerful and resourceful.
Zuo Le, whose authority has been further consolidated, struck while the iron was hot and held a high-level meeting in the company on August 20, 2021. The purpose was to summarize the work in the first half of the year and discuss the company's development direction in the second half of the year.
In fact, this meeting should have started long ago.
But Zuo Le is busy getting married in June. After getting married, he is anxious to continue making movies. After shooting the movie, he rushes into post-production. After finishing the post-production, he has to focus on the release and promotion.
Nowadays, the movie "Wulin Gaiden" is on the right track. Although the roadshow promotion has not stopped, there is no need for him to watch it personally. Except for his appearance in the final picture of the movie, other aspects are taken care of by dedicated personnel.
Therefore, Zuo Le was finally able to find time to convene a meeting with Shanhe senior executives.
In fact, the development policy of Shanhe for the second half of the year has basically been set.
Before that, Zuo Le had already communicated with President Yan Kui and the heads of various departments one by one. Today, they just finalized the plan at the meeting and formed a documented plan so that all departments of the company can implement it.
The highlight of today is to reward everyone for their work in the first half of the year.

meeting room
Zuo Le sat in the main seat, spinning a pen in his hand, and listened quietly to the head of the film and television production department clearly reporting on Shanhe's achievements in the first half of the year.
Although Shanhe has begun to get involved in the film field, it has just started, and most of the company's business today is still in TV series.
In the first half of this year, Shanhe Drama, led by the Film and Television Production Department, achieved unprecedented brilliance.
"Family with Children 4", "Senior Case Group 2", "Miracle Doctor Xilaile", "Bright Sword", "Da Ranfang", "Seven Swords 2", and the currently popular "College Story 2".
There are seven TV series in total, except for "College Student Story 2", which has not yet been finalized.
The average ratings of the rest of the dramas all exceeded 2, among which "The Big Dye Shop" and "Seven Swords 2" broke 3, and "Bright Sword", directed by Zuo Le, even reached a terrifying rating of 6.
The word-of-mouth ratings are also very good, with all of them rated above 8 points as masterpieces. Three of them, "Bright Sword", "Da Ranfang" and "Seven Swords 2", scored 9 points as masterpieces.
As mentioned before, in the first half of the year, Shanhe single-handedly overwhelmed the entire TV drama industry.
The three words "Shanhe Drama" have become the most resounding brand in the field of domestic TV dramas.
After the clear report was completed, Zuo Le took the lead in applauding, and other senior officials followed suit.
Mingyan's slightly chubby face couldn't help but smile brightly, and the other two high-level executives of the film and television production department who were present at the meeting were also beaming.
As mentioned before, although every film and television project of Shanhe is led by major directors, the skeleton of the crew is built by people from the film and television production department, and nominally each crew is also under the film and television production department.
Therefore, in Shanhe, 40% of the success of a film and television project is attributed to the film and television production department, and the remaining 60% is divided between the screenwriting department and directors.
Therefore, the film and television production department is also the first department under Sunward, followed by the agency department, administration department, screenwriting department, logistics department, distribution department and other departments.
Zuo Le also valued the film and television production department very much, and after applauding, he also praised them profusely.
Of course, he also did not forget the contributions of the screenwriting department and several directors, and he praised and encouraged them a lot.
Afterwards, heads of several other departments also stepped forward to report on their work achievements.
However, except for the brokerage department and the distribution department, other departments can only be said to be quite satisfactory, without any outstanding results.
Of course, these departments were not profit-making departments to begin with, and Zuo Le did not point out that they could do any earth-shattering things. As long as he worked hard and kept the departments running without hindering the company, he would be satisfied.
Then, Zuo Le looked at the heads of the brokerage department and distribution department.
Needless to say, Cao Jie of the brokerage department is Zuo Le's most capable person, whose status among many company executives is second only to Yan Kui and Ming Yan.
In the first half of this year, the agency department has developed quite well under her leadership. Old artists continue to consolidate their status and rise steadily, while newcomers continue to show up and their reputations continue to increase.
What makes Zuo Le most gratified is that Cao Jie is very cooperative with the company's arrangements, persuading the artists to put the company's drama first, mediating as much as possible between the company and the artists, and maintaining a harmonious relationship between everyone.
At the same time, the profit of the brokerage department has also increased significantly compared with last year. In the first half of the year alone, it was nearly double the profit of the whole of last year. It created such high profits for the company that Zuo Le couldn't help but raise eyebrows.
However, this is not without sequelae.
The profit of the brokerage department mainly relies on the company's artists. The brokerage department's income has increased significantly, which means that the artist's income has soared. This is originally a good thing, but Zuo Le can't help but think about it from the other side.
An artist with such a high income already has the capital to independently enter the entertainment industry...
Zuo Le thought that the previous plan for the company's artists to establish personal studios based on Shanhe could already be prepared for implementation.
He planned to find time to chat with Cao Jie later to see what the rules were for this matter.
After talking about the brokerage department, let’s talk about the distribution department. This department was just established at the beginning of this year.
The main responsibilities are divided into two parts, one is film distribution, and the other is negotiating with other platforms to sell films.
In the past, Zuo Le was responsible for selling dramas at Shanhe, with the help of the crew. Later, Zuo Le handed over this matter to Yan Kui, and he did a good job.
However, this time when the distribution department was established, Yan Kui proposed to formalize the matter and subdivide the responsibilities. Zuo Le thought about it and handed over the task to the distribution department.
Now that the distribution department has just been established, Yan Kui will personally supervise it for the time being. When the department structure matures in the later stage, he can go into battle himself.
In addition, in order to prevent collusion with outsiders, business corruption, drama sales, copyright and other work, the crew directors, producers, and the finance department must also send people to join in to supervise each other.
In the first half of this year, the early distribution department mainly focused on learning. After "Bright Sword", we slowly started to get started, and the performance was very good. The fact that the overseas copyright of "Seven Swords 2" sold for such a high price is the masterpiece of the distribution department.
Zuo Le has high hopes for this new department.
No matter how good the quality of the company's TV series and movies is, they must be sold at an affordable price. If the distribution department does a good job, it will greatly improve the company's profits.
This high-level meeting of the company lasted for nearly four hours. At the end of the meeting, Zuo Le pulled out a document under the scorching eyes of everyone.
It records the work rewards for these senior executives and department subordinates in the first half of the year.
Zuo Le felt the excitement of everyone, shook his head and smiled, opened the folder and began to discuss merits and rewards.
Sunward's profits in the first half of the year amounted to nearly 3 billion. Chairman Zuo Da, who owns 85% of Sunward's shares, is very satisfied.
Although Zuo Le is a bit stingy sometimes, he never loses his temper when he should be generous. The total amount of bonuses issued this time is nearly 60 million.
Based on their contribution and hard work for the company in the first half of the year, each of the company's top executives will receive at least a bonus of more than 1 million yuan.
Yan Kui, Ming Yan, Cao Jie and others who have made outstanding contributions each received bonuses of more than 5 million.
Employees in the remaining departments also receive particularly generous bonuses.
Mid-level cadres range from 100,000 to 500,000, and ordinary employees range from 10,000 to 80,000. Except for new employees who have just joined, almost everyone has one.
However, unlike the top management of the company, the amount of bonus for each middle-level and ordinary employee is kept confidential. It is paid directly to the salary card from the finance department. No one knows it unless you tell them.
Zuo Le lost tens of millions this time, which greatly boosted the morale of the company's employees.
Seeing that this was not enough, Zuo Le said that if the company's profits remain at a high level in the second half of the year, the year-end bonus will be much higher.
At the same time, he will even consider giving some dry stock dividends to the company's senior executives who have worked hard and made great achievements.
As soon as these words came out, the employees below were still waiting, and the eyes of all Shanhe senior executives turned red.
Shanhe is now at its peak, with annual profits expected to exceed 5 billion this year.
If you can get dry shares, even 0.1% will be rewarded with a dividend of 5 million. If you get a few more points, one day the company will be listed and the dry shares will become basic shares. With the momentum of Shanhe, it is not impossible to become a billionaire.
Since ancient times, money and silk have been the most touching things.
Zuo Le said a few words lightly, and the senior executives of Shanhe were ready to start working for the company...
