Chapter 748 General Manager of Kirin Films
Yin Jun is someone who goes back to do it when he thinks of it.
As soon as Qi Qiyi left, he made a phone call and asked Huang Bingyao from Qilin TV to come to the headquarters in Tianshuiwei.
Huang Bingyao didn't know what happened, so he ran over quickly. When he arrived at Yin Jun's office, he was already out of breath.
The 34-year-old Huang Bingyao has the figure of Director Wang, the "deadly scissor kick" of later generations.
As we all know, obesity puts the greatest pressure on the heart and blood vessels. He later died of a heart attack.
So the first thing Yin Jun said to him was, "Brother Yao, if you can promise to lose 10 kilograms, you can come over and be my screenwriting assistant."
Huang Bingyao's mouth opened wide, he couldn't believe what he heard, "Jun... Young Master Jun, what did you say?"
"I asked you to come and help me. I have a few scripts in my hand that need someone to expand and repair them." Yin Jun could only use Qi Qiyi as a shield, "I heard from Qi Qiyi that you are a very capable person. He is a good friend of mine and highly recommends you, so I want to give you a chance! Are you willing to do this job?"
"Yes! Yes!!"
Huang Bingyao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, his face flushed with excitement.
What a joke!
Being Yin Jun's screenwriting assistant, doesn't that mean he participated in the creation of Hong Kong's most popular movies and TV series?
Not to mention how much this will improve one's own strength, if you just go out and show off with this qualification, won't you become famous?
After his excitement subsided, Yin Jun said again: "I am looking for a screenwriting assistant now because I want to find someone who is not so restricted in thinking, but also has a lot of experience. It just so happened that my sworn brother mentioned you, let's try it out. The ugly words are ahead, if you fail to meet my requirements, then you will have no choice but to return to the writing department of Kylin TV."
"OK!"
Huang Bingyao nodded heavily.
Such a good job, of course, requires strong strength as a backing. Even if you risk your life, you can't go back in despair.
"Well, you go exercise to lose weight first... I will arrange a big-name companion for you." Yin Jun said with a smile, "Wei Xiaofan, you know, right?"
"I know! Master Bao Qingtian!" Huang Bingyao said with a smile, "He returned to Xiangjiang a few days ago, and it was you who picked him up."
"He also has to work hard to lose weight for the new drama, but the task is much more arduous than yours, so let's work hard together!" Yin Jun said, "Go back to rest today and go through the formalities. Your contract will be transferred to Qilin Culture. Come to Qilin Culture tomorrow. To start, let’s work out with Brother Wei to lose weight first. Then I’ll hand over the work to you.”
Although he knew he shouldn't ask, Huang Bingyao couldn't help but said: "Master Jun, I'm not sick! I'm not going to be a star or anything, so there's no need to lose weight, right? I can work now!"
"I think Fatty, as my assistant, is not up to par in terms of appearance. How can he represent me and attend events on behalf of Qilin Film Company in the future?" Yin Jun could only give an imaginative answer.
"..." Huang Bingyao was speechless.
When encountering such bizarre ideas, he could only say that the ideas of geniuses are indeed different from those of ordinary people.
But what can be done?
Since it was Yin Jun who wanted to do this, he could only obey, otherwise he would have offended his boss before he even came over, so what else would he be doing at work?
When Huang Bingyao returned, Yin Jun thought about it and returned to Kylin TV with him.
The current Kylin TV headquarters is still the original Jiashi headquarters. Although the building is relatively large, in Yin Jun's opinion, it has no characteristics at all.
It is impossible to build a big-pants Yin Jun from China TV, but it is very necessary to build a more modern Kylin TV headquarters building. After all, it represents the face of Kylin TV.
However, now is not the best time to buy land and build a house. We have to wait another year and a half after Mrs. Thatcher almost fell down in the Great Hall of the People. Then she will wait another year and a half. The best time to buy at the bottom of the Xiangjiang land market.
Arriving at the headquarters building, Yin Jun walked to the variety show department.
Although the variety show department does not currently have three or two kittens, the total number of people is not large, that is, there are four variety shows, one of which is Yin Jun's "Millionaire".
In the past, Jiashi's variety shows, let alone TVB, had no upper hand against Li's variety shows, namely "Millionaire", which grabbed good ratings in the late night period, but That also became one issue per week, which was unable to support the overall situation.
After Liu Tianci came to the variety show department, the first thing he did was to rectify and recruit personnel.
Then, he began to prepare for the "Hong Kong Idol" that Yin Jun gave him.
Zong Paulo, who was recruited by Yin Jun, was also preparing for the show with Liu Tianci.
Since the equipment will not be shipped until the Spring Festival, the specific start of publicity has to be in March anyway. It would be good to start the event in April, so they have plenty of time.
However, Yin Jun was not looking for Liu Tianci, he was looking for the host and chief producer of "Millionaire" - Yu Zheng.
Ever since Shi Lansheng followed her boyfriend Xu Ke to Xinyi City, Yu Zheng has also served as the director of production. After about a year of doing this, the ratings have not dropped at all, and it is still known as "the most intelligent variety show in Hong Kong" , her role in it is crucial.
Knocking on the door and going in, Yu Zheng was busy writing something. When Yin Jun sat opposite her, Yu Zheng raised his head and was a little surprised: "Hey, Mr. Jun, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"
Yu Zheng has a strong personality, like a man, so he speaks very straightforwardly and straightforwardly.
Yin Jun smiled, "Yes, Sister Zheng, I want to ask you how you are doing on the show "Millionaire". Are you tired of it?"
Yu Zheng is such a smart woman. She understood what Yin Jun meant as soon as she heard it, "What? You want me to change my job?"
"First tell me how you feel about "The Millionaire"." Yin Jun asked rhetorically without answering.
"It's okay. After working for a long time, it does get a bit boring." Yu Zheng said, "But I don't really like other jobs in the TV station. I just stay here."
"I think the pond of "Millionaire" is too small to accommodate a big fish like Sister Zheng." Yin Jun said, "I wonder if Sister Zheng is willing to go to Qilin Film Company and help me take charge of my own business?"
"Me? Qilin Movie?"
Although Yu Zheng guessed that Yin Jun was looking for him to do a more difficult job, he didn't expect that it would be the Kirin Film Company, which was rumored outside, and he would be the general manager.
"right."
Yin Jun nodded and said, "Sister Zheng, you are very capable and enterprising. You are very suitable for the Qilin movie."
"I don't think so." Yu Zheng expressed his objection, "Now in the film industry in Xiangjiang, Shaw Brothers, Golden Harvest, and New Art City are three pillars, and some small and medium-sized companies are also constantly making films. In such a small area of Xiangjiang, such a concentrated There are so many film companies, big and small, that have almost used up all their resources. Qilin Films dives in without its own theater chain, how can it succeed?"
Yu Zheng has never been in the film industry, but as a person in the entertainment industry, she also knows the film industry very well.
The three major film companies are backed by their own three major theater chains, and they maintain a dominant position no matter what they do.
Although Yin Jun is a talented screenwriter and has good resources like Kylin TV, if you don’t have the support of theaters, no matter how good the movie is, it won’t get high box office. How can you attract good movie staff and movie stars? What about development and growth?
"I have my own plan for the theater chain, and I should be able to complete the layout in the summer season in five years." Yin Jun said, "Before this, what our Qilin Film Company has to do is to produce one movie every year. Then other directors, actors, and other films will be produced by other companies. I guarantee that I will submit no less than three scripts to Qilin Films a year."
Yu Zheng frowned and was a little frightened.
The reason for frowning is because in recent years, Qilin Film has basically been operating alone, relying on the resources of others to do things.
What is shocking is that others say that Yin Jun is a master who sees things three steps ahead. Now it seems that his vision is not only like this, but can also see further.
Saying it in such a positive tone shows that Yin Jun has a very long-term and detailed plan for the theater chain, which he will definitely do in the future, and with Yin Jun's character, he will definitely be able to build the most modern and luxurious theater chain.
This means that at that time, Qilin Movies will truly take off.
But in the past few years, Qilin Movies seemed to be struggling to survive, and it was destined to be a very difficult time.
Yu Zheng felt that Yin Jun wanted him to be a pioneer cow.
"So, Mr. Jun, what are your requirements for Qilin Movies?" Yu Zheng asked, "What kind of situation does it need to reach before you can build a theater chain?"
"The three films I took are specifically responsible for making money for Qilin Films. For the rest of the films, I hope to work more on awards." Yin Jun said, "Especially the Golden Horse Awards and the Academy Awards, if there are two films every year If you get something, that’s the best.”
"Literary films generally lose money!" Yu Zheng frowned.
"In the past few years, I have not set a profit or loss line for Qilin Movies. All the money I earned from my three movies has been invested in Qilin Movies for your use." Yin Jun continued.
"What about celebrities?" Yu Zheng asked, "Are they stars who only use our Qilin culture?"
"Not necessarily, we can use whoever is good. Of course, the prerequisite is that you can hire them." Yin Jun said, "But for some of the roles that can be considered, I still hope to use our own people to train them as much as possible."
"Where's the director?"
"I am a director, one film a year." Yin Jun said, "In addition, Xu Anhua also promised me that I can join Qilin Film, but she is only suitable for making more literary films. But Xu Anhua is very measured. Although he makes literary films, he does not How will the company lose money? You can use this person with confidence and boldness.
Another director could use Wang Jing. This person has his own way of making movies. As long as you give him a good script, he can make a movie above the standard. Moreover, Wang Jing’s filming speed is very fast, so there is no need to worry about consuming too much time and cost. But he is suitable for some light-hearted comedies. I have considered this. There is a script given to him every year.
Lin Lingdong from Kylin TV, I am also planning to transfer him to Kylin Movies next. This person has a very unique grasp of gunfights and dark themes. This year and next, I will give him scripts so that he can polish his directing skills. And the film "Prison" he is currently filming will also be our Qilin Films' work that will win awards in the European film industry.
How about it, Sister Zheng, with the four directors like us, plus the films we have collaborated with others on, I believe that in terms of strength, it is no worse than the average film company, right? "
Yu Zheng had long understood Yin Jun's meticulous thoughts.
She was not surprised to hear these arrangements, but she still had concerns: "You get three scripts every year, one for you, one for Wang Jing, and one for Lin Lingdong. What can we do to cooperate with other film companies? If Without your script to be given to the three major film companies, how can we get their theaters and get good schedules?"
"Lin Lingdong's. What I gave him this year is "Prison." It will not be counted among the three scripts." Yin Jun explained patiently: "Who do you plan to work with on the remaining script? That's good. Although I still have a lot of scripts, if I take out too many, they won't be valuable. One or two a year is enough to maintain our profitability and status."
"You have recently given a script to Golden Harvest, New Art City and Chuck Chuck respectively. If I want to be the director of Qilin Movies, will all your movie scripts be handled by me? You cannot give them randomly without my consent. Someone else?" Yu Zheng asked.
Yin Jun did not expect this.
But after thinking about it, Yu Zheng's approach was the most appropriate.
Now that he has a film company, of course he can't give scripts to whomever he wants like he did in the past. Otherwise, Yin Jun will get a favor, but Qilin Films will be very embarrassed.
"Well, I was negligent on this point." Yin Jun muttered, "Okay, you will be in charge of everything from now on."
"This is not enough." Yu Zheng said even further, "In addition to your three movie scripts, I also have two script quotas every year. It is up to me to decide who to cooperate with. Only in this way can our Qilin Film Company be able to operate steadily. Only by surviving can we have the opportunity to develop and grow in the future.”
"One!" Naturally, Yin Jun would not completely listen to her, "Sister Zheng, I will only give you one in the past few years. When our theater chain is established...well, maybe a little earlier, then I will give out more every year. Come with at least three excellent movie scripts so that you can fully operate."
"make a deal."
Yu Zheng nodded, "Last point, should I be the one planning and managing the Qilin Movie?"
"Yes." Yin Jun said, "In principle, only my sister and I have the power to supervise Qilin Movies. You can do the rest!"
After a pause, Yin Jun said in surprise, "Sister Zheng, why did you agree so quickly?"
"Nonsense, is it useful if I don't agree? Don't you have to persuade me with all your words?" Yu Zheng said angrily, "Besides, I think this is also a good challenge. I can dominate the Xiangjiang movies with you. The market is also a very interesting thing!”
"Domineering!"
Yin Jun smiled and gave a thumbs up.
"Don't be too busy to be happy." Yu Zheng said, "I am not like Miss Liang in doing things, but I still need the necessary support. I won't talk about the relationship between money and connections. If we want to make a movie, who do we need? Superstar, I also hope you can help with it."
"As long as I can do it, I will." Yin Jun said seriously.
"In addition, you and Lin Lingdong's two movies, you just have to shoot, and I will take care of the rest." Yu Zheng said, "Whether it is winning an award or being screened worldwide, tell me your desired goal, and then Let the company do it, so that it will train people more, instead of just relying on the boss's personal ability!"
"good!"
Yin Jun nodded.
Just because of Yu Zheng's arrangement, he felt that choosing this strong woman was the most correct decision for him!
