It was Chen Mingshan, however. Yan Zi made the decision, and he agreed, but his face was calm and he didn't look happy.
"Feng Xiaoyun, the QDY short video platform headquarters has decided to merge into Jiangdu Entertainment, right?" Yan Zi turned around and asked Feng Xiaoyun.
"Yes, Mr. Yan. After the short video platform was merged into Jiangdu Entertainment, the domestic version will still be operated independently by them. However, the overseas version has just been launched, and the headquarters plans to hand it over directly to Jiangdu Entertainment for operation."
The two of them had known this for a long time, and it was Feng Jianguo who paved the way for them. Aside from the two of you two bosses, everyone else in this company is just an employee. How can you keep them in line? Profits, of course!
As the largest short video platform in China, QDY short video platform can almost be said to be in a monopoly position.
The overseas version launched this year has become popular all over the world as soon as it was launched abroad. Therefore, when this news was released, everyone below showed joy on their faces.
In addition to a fixed salary, these executives also receive a dividend at the end of each year. The amount of the dividend is determined by a certain proportion of the previous year's profits.
Now that QDY has been incorporated into Jiangdu Entertainment, there is no doubt that the annual profit will increase significantly, and it is foreseeable that its year-end dividends will also increase.
Chen Mingshan's calm face, which had shown no joy just now, began to become a little stiff, and his breathing became a little rapid.
Because just after he finished speaking, Yan Zi looked at him, and he had always been in charge of this kind of media channel. Could it be...
As Chen Mingshan expected, Yan Zi continued, "Then Mr. Chen will still be responsible for the overseas version of the QDY short video platform."
"Yes, Mr. Yan, don't worry. I will lead the team here myself and will definitely do a good job on this!" Chen Mingshan no longer cared about being reserved and promised happily.
"Well, this time the short video platform merged and handed the overseas version over to Jiangdu Entertainment. I think you all know the reason, right?" Yan Zi nodded at Chen Mingshan's assurance and continued:
"The country is now asking us to do a good job of exporting our own culture, and the QDY short video platform is a pioneer. So in the next one or two years, whether it's our own movies, TV series, or even new albums recorded by singers, we should try to rely on this platform. Is that a problem?"
This was originally the task that Feng Jianguo asked Yan Zi to complete before she took over. At this time, the two vice presidents of the company were at least convinced on the surface, so she naturally had to bring it up.
"No problem!" Lu Xun said, "We'll come up with a plan for this!"
"We have no problem. As long as President Lu takes good action, we will use all channels to accomplish this important task!" Chen Mingshan quickly made the assurance, not to be outdone.
Feng Xiaoyun nodded silently, telling Yan Zi that the most important thing for managing these senior executives is to use both kindness and authority. Simply giving benefits won't work, and simply suppressing them won't work either. The best way is to give a good reward after a good blow.
I didn't expect that she would be able to put her knowledge into practice so quickly. First, she gave Lu Xun some advice on TV drama production, and then she allocated part of the advertising fees to Lu Xun.
Then, seemingly putting pressure on Chen Mingshan with regard to advertising fees, they immediately offered him the overseas version of the QDY short video platform, which immediately made him grateful.
Then it would be a natural thing to ask them to cooperate in cultural exports.
Seeing that both sides had agreed, Yan Zi nodded to Feng Xiaoyun first, then said: "I have some plans about this, you can discuss it."
After saying that, Feng Xiaoyun handed the stack of documents in his hand to Lu Xun and Chen Mingshan. They took a copy and passed it on. Soon, each of the senior executives attending the meeting had a copy.
"Documentary: A Bite of China?"
"Variety Show: Chinese Restaurant?"
"Chinese Superhero Animated Movie Universe?"
"National Style Music Festival?"
"Fancy Clothing Award?"
The plan lists several projects in order, with detailed explanations below, but everyone still feels a little confused. Are these things really useful?
An executive from a news channel bravely asked, "Boss Yan, this is a little different from what we usually promote, isn't it?"
He is in charge of news, so he knows the current content of cultural output to the outside world, which is very different from the plan that Yan Zi issued today.
"It's quite different!" Yan Zi nodded in agreement. "But what do you think of our achievements in cultural output over the years?"
"No, it's not very good!" Yan Zi's performance just now, coupled with her always cold and serious appearance, actually made these subordinates a little afraid of her, the CEO who took office on her first day.
"That's right. Since we already know the results aren't very good, why do we continue on the old path?"
These were all issues that the two of them had discussed passionately in bed over the past few days, so Yan Zi spoke without hesitation:
"In the past, our cultural output was primarily based on official orthodox culture. To put it bluntly, it was too 'pretentious,' and all we produced were 'great, glorious, and correct' things."
"Honestly, few of us Chinese citizens can understand or are interested in those things. If you try to explain them to foreigners, isn't that like talking to a cow?"
"I believe that truly successful cultural output is always subtle and has to be driven by commercial activity. It starts with ordinary hobbies and then enters the market through highly recognizable IP!"
"Let me give you an example: Japan's anime and manga, European detective dramas, and the American superhero series! First, they have to be popular with the audience, and people are willing to watch them. Only after watching them will they want to understand the culture behind them!"
