Chapter 379: The Fish Takes the Bait
"If it's just the pay, I wouldn't call you and Shi Shi to Jiaxing Restaurant."
Xu Jia looked at Wu Qilong with a "sincere" face, which made Wu Qilong's complexion warm. Among other things, this sincerity is enough to show Mr. Xu's heart.
Xu Jia said: "I sincerely hope to give fans back better works. I think Shi Shi, as a beneficiary of the "Sword" series, should also have this thought."
"But you know about the income. Now the whole project is just a word of mouth, and it hasn't been officially launched yet. In addition, the other main creative actors have not been contacted yet, so I can't give you a guarantee."
Going around, he didn't reveal anything about the conditions.
It's just the first contact right now, so of course you have to hide your hole cards, otherwise how can you bargain later?
Wu Qilong thought about it for a while, but he didn't know where to go, and said in a deep voice: "Then if Shi Shi's studio can accept Jiaxing's capital injection, what preferential treatment will there be?"
This is to use Liu Shishi's studio's capital injection rights in exchange for benefits.
Xu Jia rubbed his chin, he was really moved.
"Hehe, there must be a difference in the treatment between our own people and outsiders." Xu Jia paused, "For example, in the big movie "Sword of Heaven", Sister Mi also gets a certain share in addition to the film salary."
He didn't give a definite answer, so he took Yang Mi as an example. Anyway, if you believe it, you have it, and if you don't believe it, you don't.
The main thing is a resignation.
Wu Qilong saw that he really couldn't get any advantage, so he lowered his head and pondered for a while: "Please give us some time to think about it. After all, this is a very big matter, and we need to think it over carefully. I still need to discuss it with Shi Shi."
"Of course there is no problem. We are always here for you." Xu Jia smiled.
The fish have opened their mouths, so there is no reason not to take the bait.
Fishing.
He has a lot of patience.
...
The banquet is over, and the guests enjoy themselves.
Cai Yinong has officially entered the state.
"I have checked the contracts of artists under Jiaxing, it is too loose, which is unreasonable."
To be honest, she thought that her sugar man treated artists generously, but she didn't expect Jiaxing's place to be even more outrageous.
From her point of view, the clauses in those contracts have almost no restrictions on artists.
In other words, in Jiaxing, every artist belongs to Jiaxing in name and income, and there is basically no resistance for them to leave.
This is extremely unreasonable for a brokerage company.
"How do you think it should be changed?"
Xu Jia didn't refute immediately, but asked Cai Yinong's opinion seriously.
"I think the liquidated damages for artists above the first line should be increased by more than ten times, including the trainees who came out of "Ou Lian". The same should be true. Their income is even higher than that of the first line."
"Personnel at the second line and below must formulate reward and punishment measures. If they fail to reach a certain number of notifications each year, or keep going up and down, I think they can give up."
Cai Yinong is quite strict in this regard, and her method is still possible in the former entertainment industry.
After all, there was an urgent shortage of mainland actors, especially idols, and this was the place for newcomers to make their debut.
But now, everyone is racing against time to introduce newcomers.
Even newcomers bring their own dry food for publicity. In such a harsh competitive environment, the old method no longer works.
"First of all, let me say a few words about the contracts of first-line artists. Before they joined Jiaxing, the conditions I gave were like this. Only then did I have the basis to attract them to join. That's how Lao Hu came here."
After Xu Jia finished speaking, the corners of Cai Yinong's eyes twitched.
This is her wound that cannot heal, and her beloved apprentice was poached by Xu Jia...
"Secondly, the restraint is small, which doesn't mean there is no. It can only be said that this part is not written in the contract, but depends more on the artist's own moral restraint, which is the so-called gentleman's agreement."
This sounds nice, but in fact Xu Jia is not afraid of his subordinates leaving at all.
Just like Liu Tao, you can leave if you want, and I will never stop you.
But after leaving, Jianghu will not be merciful when we meet again. It belongs to your position. I used to be able to push you up and drag you down.
He has such confidence that he dares to be this gentleman.
Otherwise, these days, a gentleman who has no power to restrain a chicken will be easily deceived by others.
A gentleman is different from a gentleman. A seven-foot man with a sharp sword is more persuasive than a scholar with a brush.
"In the end, the reward and punishment system is even more unworkable. This situation is only applicable to small companies. They may have limited investment, so they let the artists compete like raising a gu, and they are lucky to be able to achieve one."
"However, in Jiaxing right now, there is a mature system for cultivating newcomers. Variety shows, from Running Boys to Yearning to Idol Trainees, are opportunities for them to make their debut. Drama, Jiaxing's own projects and projects of various partners will give them opportunities."
Xu Jia patiently explained to Cai Yinong that his rules had a certain basis, and he should not be treated like other subordinates. He was only responsible for handling affairs, not explaining.
Because Zeng Jia, Miao Yuqing and others watched with their own eyes how Xu Jia brought Jiaxing to the top step by step. This is the trust cultivated over a long period of time.
Cai Yinong has just joined, so he is not familiar with Xu Jia. In addition, he has a successful experience, so he cannot be easily persuaded.
Boiling the eagle is not just the initial boiling, the subsequent taming is also the top priority.
"Then if these opportunities are given, they still can't make it to the top. Are you going to support them for a lifetime?" Cai Yinong asked.
It's not that she couldn't understand the superiority of Xu Jia's plan, but she couldn't adapt to the transition from a small workshop to a large company for a while.
This is a kind of institutional crushing.
Although Tang Ren and Jia Xing are both of one mind, Cai Yinong can catch everything, while Xu Jia is a 'hands-off shopkeeper' who is willing to let go of power.
"Even if these opportunities fail to come out, the company still has a lot of projects that are short of people. If you can't play a leading role, you can't play a supporting role. If you can't play a supporting role, you can't play a supporting role. If it doesn't work, we still have a lot of behind-the-scenes teams, and there are suitable positions. You can turn."
Xu Jia looked very serious, and said: "I never think that they are useless if they fail to become stars. Everyone has their own talents, and I am willing to help them find their respective positions. This is the consistent purpose of Jiaxing."
"Take this place as your home, not just talk about it."
It can be said that Xu Jia is a sinister and cunning capitalist;
But from the beginning to the end, he was always external and not internal. Even if the other party wanted to come to Jiaxing, he would welcome him as long as it was suitable.
He just wants to reshape the dirty and feudal rules of the entertainment industry.
Let the people who follow him eat meat and drink in big bowls. It is not enough to protect the poor in the world, but it is enough to protect the people around them.
