Chapter 863 I Am the One Who Is Responsible?
Kyoto, Shenxin Entertainment, conference room.
The sun was scorching outside the window, and it was cold and windy inside.
"Is the air conditioner turned on too low?"
In the conference room where more than 20 people sat, Zhang Chengliang, director of the planning department of the film and television department, muttered in a low voice.
"Mr. Zhang, I'm afraid it's not because the air conditioner is turned on low, but because people feel cold?"
Sitting next to him, Zhou Xiaoming, Minister of Human Resources, responded in a low voice.
"Old Zhou, are you implying something?"
Zhang Chengliang looked at Zhou Xiaoming with a smile, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
They were considered old friends, and they were recruited by Shenxin Entertainment in the same batch back then.
At that time, Shen Xin was not the famous Big Three in the entertainment industry, but a small record company.
Later, with the efforts of Zhang Chengliang and Zhou Xiaoming, Shenxin Records finally developed step by step and became Shenxin Entertainment, which spans the music and film circles.
However, the development of Shenxin has encountered some obstacles in the past year.
Not only lost its dominance in the music scene, but also failed in the first step of investing huge sums of money to expand the territory of the film and television industry.
Today's meeting that convened all the heads of the company's departments was probably to deal with the current situation.
Before Chen Qiao, the vice president who presided over the meeting, arrived, everyone sat quietly and waited.
It's just that the middle-level people here are in different moods. Yang Yu from the Publicity Department is fidgeting, while Zhang Chengliang and Zhou Xiaoming are relatively relaxed.
"Hey, Lao Zhou, have you noticed that Ai Yao now is a bit like Shen Xin when we first joined the company?"
Zhang Chengliang said suddenly.
"Hiss." Zhou Xiaoming thought for a while, and couldn't help gasping for air: "It's true when you say that, we replaced Luoshi Entertainment back then, do you think Ai Yao will shoot us to death in the future? "
Luoshi Entertainment was once a tycoon in the entertainment industry, but was shot to death by Shen Xin who was the back wave.
And now,
Many old people in Shenxin have seen their former self from Ai Yao.
"What are you afraid of? Experienced old people like us can't starve to death no matter where we go, so let's take refuge in Ai Yao."
Zhang Chengliang chuckled and said in a low voice:
"I heard that Lin Yao treats her subordinates very well. Do you remember Tianhai's former secretary to the president? The pretty one, the first one to follow Lin Yao to change jobs, oh yes, Li Li, who just bought an Audi the day before yesterday Woolen cloth!"
"Oh, that little secretary, I remember, it's all so good?"
Zhou Xiaoming was a little surprised, and then asked:
"Old Zhang, why aren't you nervous at all? The box office at the end of the road is so bad, isn't your film and television department afraid of being held accountable?"
Zhang Chengliang cut it: "What's the matter with our film and television department? It was the top who made the decision and approved the project, and the top who chose Zhang Xuyuan. Can we still blame our film and television department?"
At this time, the door of the meeting room was pushed open, and the female secretary in a uniform miniskirt pushed the door, and Chen Qiao, who had a thick wig and a slightly bloated figure, walked in.
Seeing Mr. Chen's livid face, the people who were chatting in low voices immediately fell silent.
Chen Qiao stood at the main seat of the U-shaped conference table, and took a stack of A4 papers from the female secretary.
Snapped!
He slammed the information in his hand on the table, spit all over his mouth, and fired at full force:
"This is the box office results just checked by the data department. It's almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and "Desperate End" is less than 10 million today!
The opposite side is 200 million! !
In a few days, their daily box office will be higher than our cumulative box office!
Do you think you have any face? !
Where is the face? Is there any burning pain? !
I'm not angry at all, I just want to say one thing: Everyone here counts as one, they are all fucking trash, trash! ! "
There was deathly silence in the meeting room, a group of smart and capable mid-level Shen Xin staff looked ugly and bowed their heads in silence.
Some people couldn't help but think angrily: No wonder Mr. Chen didn't sit down when he came in. So it was just to scold us that those who sat down were trash?
Wow, the leader is still thoughtful!
After outputting a wave, Chen Qiao seemed to be in a better mood, so she sat down with satisfaction.
Looking around at the crowd, he said slowly, "Tell me, what do you think?"
Everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.
Seeing this, Chen Qiao called her name directly: "Minister Zhou, do you have any ideas?"
"Mr. Chen, I've been busy with the general meeting of shareholders that Mr. Li explained, and I don't know much about the situation in the film and television industry. Which movie is that with a box office of 200 million a day?"
Zhou Xiaoming looked blank, as if he was not the one who was discussing Ai Yao with Zhang Chengliang just now.
When Chen Qiao heard him lift Li Zheng out, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and she didn't continue to embarrass him.
Zhang Chengliang quietly gave Zhou Xiaoming a thumbs up, yes, Lao Zhou, this acting is awesome!
"Zhang Chengliang, you are the person in charge of the film and television department, please tell me."
Chen Qiao called Zhang Chengliang's name again.
Zhang Chengliang froze, quickly sat upright, and replied solemnly:
"Mr. Chen, "Desperate End" is actually of good quality, but the current audience prefers comedies, and some of our leading actors are really lagging behind.
I think we don’t need to care about the gains and losses of a city or a place. We still have "The Sword of Immortal Mountain" to be aired at the end of July. Many satellite TV stations want to introduce this drama. Even Apple Channel, where Fang Xiaole is, is also talking with us about the first round of broadcast. publishing rights,
This drama will definitely sweep away the decline, so I don't think we need to worry too much. "
This is Zhang Chengliang's long-awaited rhetoric, and his generous speech at this time is indeed quite elegant.
"Hehe, do you know what dramas will be on in July?"
However, Chen Qiao didn't buy it and asked coldly.
Zhang Chengliang said uncertainly: "Chengfeng has a city, and Caiyue has a suspense. There are not many big dramas in July, and there is no threat to us."
"As the director of the film and television department, you don't know that Aiyao Studio is likely to launch a web drama in July?"
Chen Qiao asked with a livid face.
"Ai Yao? Web drama?"
Zhang Chengliang was stunned for a moment, thinking why should I pay attention to online dramas of that level?
"You said just now that "Dead End" failed because some of the leading actors were not good enough. Then, as the person in charge of the film and television department, why didn't you bring it up?"
Chen Qiao asked again.
Zhang Chengliang is stupid, didn't you directly order Zhang Xuyuan? It's not my business?
Just when he faintly felt something was wrong, Chen Qiaoyou said two names:
"Luo Hao and Liu Zhenhong, did you leave them at the beginning?"

Zhang Chengliang's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly argued: "Mr. Chen, the company gave both of them the lowest grades at the time, so it's no pity for them to leave, and Luo Hao paid hundreds of thousands of liquidated damages when he left! "
"You let people go with a few hundred thousand? Now the company's loss is several hundred million!"
Chen Qiao slammed the table and roared angrily:
"Because of your work mistakes, the company's strategy has been seriously affected, can you take responsibility for this?!"
There was no sound in the meeting room, everyone looked at Zhang Chengliang sympathetically, even Zhou Xiaoming silently moved his chair away from him.
Sure enough, the next moment, Chen Qiao sat comfortably on the chair, and said with grief:
"In view of Zhang Chengliang's serious dereliction of duty, which caused great losses to the company, the company decided to fire Zhang Chengliang! Minister Zhang, I personally thank you for your contribution to Shen Xin, but the company has its own management system, I'm sorry."
Zhang Chengliang was stunned. It turned out that this would be the blame, and the person who was responsible was myself? !
On June 6th, at seven o'clock in the evening, two hours after Shenxin Entertainment fired the head of the film and television department.
The box office of "Crazy Stone" broke 200 million that day, with a cumulative box office of 920 million, which is only 80 million short of breaking the best box office record in the history of low-budget movies.
