"Just think of it as a favor to me, your brother, and help me arrange a charity performance. But don't hire those unknown actors. Don't waste this opportunity."
Wang Tianlin said this specifically, implying that he would use the opportunity as remuneration.
Wu Changyun rolled his eyes at him. Wang Tianlin had no face in front of Wu Changyun. They were old acquaintances and had been dealing with each other for so many years, so he naturally knew the other's temper very well.
To Wu Changyun's surprise, other film companies did not take the initiative to seize this opportunity.
Now it seems that Wang Tianlin is definitely not the first one to find Wu Changyun.
Because in terms of pay, although the pay of actors under Qi Ji Film Company has been regulated by Wu Changyun, the pay of first-line stars is not low. It can only be said that it is slightly lower than that of Golden Harvest's top stars.
This kind of thing is of course to invite some actors who are not that famous to perform charity shows. If they reach the level of many first-line stars, they may not necessarily work hard to gain fame, because that will have little effect on them.
Wu Changyun felt that he could not make the decision on his own without a reason.
It’s not that his power is not big enough, but a company cannot have one person act like a tyrant. Everyone must have room for negotiation, otherwise it’s not called a home.
Many actors in the company regard the company as their home. Wu Changyun looks like a boss, but he rarely asks about business matters. Basically, they are all managed by Zhou Huiting, who is not very strong.
It’s not because Zhou Huiting is so capable, she has made many mistakes before, but this girl has a characteristic, just like when she was a reporter, she dared to go into dangerous places alone to collect materials, she is not afraid at all.
And when she was following me before, she would definitely try any method this girl could think of. Even though Wu Changyun tried to persuade her with reason and emotion, and even made Zhou Huiting cry, she still succeeded in getting close to Wu Changyun in the end.
This girl is very tenacious. Wu Changyun was worried before that she would not be able to get over the psychological trauma and would not be as brave as before, but now it seems that Wu Changyun was worrying too much.
Wu Changyun from TVB was unable to agree directly and planned to wait until he met with the company before making a decision.
Putting aside the various film companies that are currently striking while the iron is hot, Shaw Brothers has been going against the trend recently. However, from a long-term perspective, it makes sense for them to do so.
The momentum of the real estate industry will only increase in the future, and cinema chains are a major source of income. Even if Shaw Brothers enters the film industry, it still has to collect money from other peers, forcing them to share a share even if they make good movies.
This move is indeed very clever, and it is a means of pleasing all parties.
But Shaw Brothers' production department is not optimistic at all, because if Shaw Brothers makes cuts now, they will be the first to be laid off.
Liu Yi has put a lot of thought into this recently. Fortunately, Zhang Jin, who Liu Yi has high hopes for, has really achieved good results. In the past few years, Zhang Jin and Hua An have filmed a total of 17 films.
The contents are all similar, but only six or seven of them are actually box office hits. However, these six or seven works sold very well and were called the XX series by the audience and were sought after by people.
Similarly, he has become the only life-saving straw in Liu Yi's eyes.
The entire department was losing money, and Zhang Jin alone could make up for almost half of the deficit. Imagine this: Zhang Jin alone was paying the salaries of the entire production department's actors; without him, their fate would be even worse.
"Brother Jin, good morning."
While walking towards the office, someone greeted Zhang Jin.
Before, few people paid attention to this outsider diving monk, and the only person he usually came into contact with was Hua An. Because of his previous bold attempts, many people said behind his back that Zhang Jin made money by making bad movies, selling his body and character.
But Zhang Jin is different now. It is not an exaggeration to say that Zhang Jin is the breadwinner of other people’s lives.
"It's not early at this time. I see you always come at 10 o'clock. Is it a habit?"
Zhang Jin remembered this guy. Every time he passed by here before, he could see an empty workstation. It must be that Zhang Jin had recently led the entire department to a period of recovery, so he started to come back to work.
In fact, many well-informed people in the department have begun to prepare a way out for themselves. Liu Yi also has a small notebook. If people like this stay in the company in the future, Liu Yi will at least block them from getting promoted.
The efforts of Zhang Jin and Hua An are not limited to the two of them. Often, if a path can be taken, it can bring a lot of benefits.
In Liu Yi's office, he was discussing the plans for the subsequent production department with Hua An.
"Hua'an, your films are selling very well recently. Why don't we increase our efforts and strive to create a dark horse in the market of Category III films? Then even the current Golden Harvest and Qi Ji won't be able to look down on us anymore." On the coffee table next to Liu Yi were various large-scale covers, all of which were the works of Hua'an and Zhang Jin.
"There are only two of us here. There's no need to do this. Neither you nor I work for the company."
Hua An chuckled. It was not that he had heard any rumors, but someone in Liu Yi's position could definitely hear the rumors. Even those sitting in the office could hear any movement. How could Liu Yi just sit there and wait for death?
Liu Yi must have made two preparations for himself a long time ago. Of course, if we consider that Liu Yi is a smart man, he may have made more than two preparations.
Liu Yi did have a third plan. He was trying to revitalize the film and television department, but he diverted the department's resources to manage the real estate planning department that was currently being planned.
This newly established department is the company's investment in the real estate market, but they are troubled by the fact that the early entrants have already occupied the vast majority of the market, and now they are in urgent need of funds to expand the quantity and quality of real estate.
Of course, the early entrants mentioned here include Wu Changyun and Fu Shun.
Fushun encountered an economic crisis that year, but it did not mean that all the properties under Wu Changyun’s name were lost. The properties could not be lost because you cannot lose money if you take something away.
Even if Wu Changyun had to sell everything he had, he would not let go of the real estate in his hands. After the first fraud incident, Fushun had already expanded the apartment business to 300 units, which was actually a very profitable business.
However, because the first fraud was exposed, Fushun had to bear extremely low rent and annual lease contracts, and the money collected from rent was invested in expanding the market, which led to the problem of being unable to make ends meet at the time.
Now Wu Changyun has orders for apartments. Excluding subsequent investments made by Wu Changyun, there are probably more than 600 apartments. He can be said to be a veritable rental tycoon.
