Chapter 222 You Want Them to Die
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Do you have to do it when signing a contract and when terminating a contract? Why don’t you just do a company-wide test? Why do you have to do so many fancy things?
Not only were the people in the conference room shocked, but even the audience in the live broadcast room were frightened.
[Damn, I really deserved it for slacking off and watching the live broadcast! It was worth it! ]
[I knew the stars were going to make a big move, but I never thought it would be this big? ]
[It's so exciting! Director Tang is really honest. He dares to take on such a job. 】
【I hope other companies will learn from this. 】
[Hahahaha, Director Tang said it twice, probably to scare those people who took it? To let them have some hope, and then have it shattered?]
Director Tang smiled like an old fox on the stage.
What he said naturally had meaning.
There are a few people in the company who look like they have touched something dirty.
Organizing a drug test for the entire company will definitely reveal the problem. No matter how the company handles it, there will be netizens criticizing it, saying that people were found to have smoked drugs among the stars, can you escape responsibility?
But now the reason has been changed and the statement is different.
Before signing the contract, we need to do a drug test. Our company is clean and we don’t want employees who break the law.
Termination? You need to do a drug test. We have to make sure that the people who leave the Stars are good citizens who abide by the law.
It is essentially the same thing, but the feeling it gives to the audience is completely different!
This is the method that Jiang Chuan Ning taught Director Tang, and it is also the charm of the Chinese language.
After this incident, the image of Zhongxing instantly became an excellent company that follows policies and abides by laws.
We are not a drug den that harbors criminals!
We proactively provide KPIs to our police comrades!
Director Tang smiled and said, "After signing the contract, the company will provide training courses in performance and other aspects for the contracted artists every year. Especially for actors who are going to join the costume drama crew, there will be special training courses such as lines, etiquette, and the six arts."
The barrage was so exciting.
[Big reform! Great! I really can’t stand the bodies of some actors! I like this move of the stars the most! ]
[So will there be real people riding horses in costume dramas again? I am speechless every time I see close-up shots of people riding horses in circus scenes…]
[Yeah, fans always say they are afraid of danger or something, but they are actually just making excuses for their idols. When I watched the horse battle scenes of the Three Kingdoms, it really felt like thousands of horses were galloping. Now, the actor is sitting on a puppet horse's head and shaking it a few times, and they actually say he is having a hard time? ]
[Riding a horse is dangerous, but the horses in Hengdian are all experienced actors, and they can act better than the stars. Sometimes I want to see the daily life of the horses during filming, which is definitely more interesting than the behind-the-scenes footage of the stars.]
[I earn a few thousand yuan a month, and I get scolded for not doing a good job. Stars make hundreds of millions for a movie, and they still need to be coaxed when they don't do a good job? They are all spoiled by their fans! ]
After talking about the artists, Director Tang went on to talk about several projects this year: "After the signing process is completed, in addition to the staff already in the crew, the rest of the staff will join the company's one-week team-building reality show - "Harvesting Wheat."
[Harvesting wheat? Is that what I was thinking? ]
[I have seen company team building, and I have seen reality shows where people go to farm, but I have never seen a team building where people go to farm on a reality show.]
[Remember the bitter past and think of the sweet present? Help the farmers? ]
[I am totally blown away by what the stars did today! Hahahahaha, revitalize the entertainment industry, I believe in the stars! ]
The faces of the artists present were uglier than each other.
It’s okay to do a drug test. Except for those who have something to hide, everyone still admires the company’s courage! But harvesting wheat for team building?! Seriously?
It is now the beginning of August and the weather is extremely hot.
The mountainous area where wheat is harvested must be dry and hot. Once you go there, you won't be able to work, just standing in the sun will get you sunburned.
These artists have been maintaining fair and tender skin for so long, spending thousands or tens of thousands of dollars on skin care products every day, isn't it just to look better on camera?
Go to work in the fields, harvest wheat under the scorching sun, and when you come back, can you still show your face to others?!
Not to mention the entire live broadcast...
Any laziness will be recorded clearly!
Is Director Tang okay? Is he training artists? He wants them dead!
Many artists who were originally on the sidelines about the company, after hearing these two things, were completely disappointed with the company...
Most of them entered the entertainment industry because of the money. Although those unreasonable seven-year contracts were a rip-off, they were still willing to sign them.
Everyone wants to become famous and earn tens of millions by simply taking on an advertising endorsement.
They knew that the contract sacrificed ordinary people like them, and it would be good if they could make one out of a thousand contracts. But the gambler's mentality still made them feel that they were the lucky ones!
The benefits brought by the current contract have only been reduced from seven years to a one-year contract, with no mention of other profit-sharing treatment or resource recommendations.
So……
What profit can they make from it?!
There are also free training and wheat harvesting team building! It sounds good! They are all sacrificing themselves to create a positive image for the company.
What's the point of such good training? Is it because of your graceful figure and good lines that you can get into the major groups?
NONONO!
Today's entertainment industry has changed a lot.
Back then, the backbone of the arts could spend years honing their skills for a single play. But in today’s fast-food era, if a star doesn’t show up for a while, his fans will forget him completely.
The stars may change their hearts, but they cannot change their destinies!
If we continue like this, wouldn't we be courting death?
In the conference room, nearly half of the artists began to back out, and many of them had the idea of "taking this opportunity to terminate the contract and leave."
Director Tang paid no attention to everyone's changed expressions and continued to passionately speak about the stars' reform plans.
What about annual training, regular fitness and physical examinations, drug tests, etc.
The more I talk about it, the more it feels like this isn’t an entertainment company at all!
The rules within the organization shouldn't be so strict, right? !
Finally, Director Tang paused and looked towards the guest of honor seat: "Next, let us welcome the new boss of the Stars, Boss Jiang Chuan Ning, to give everyone a speech on his outlook for the Stars."
There was warm applause in the hall.
We tried to keep smiling, but we still had to do our best to look good.
Jiang Chuan Ning came on stage and after a brief opening speech, he smiled and said, "After coming to China, I heard a rumor that a purple star will appear in the entertainment industry this year. It will be so dazzling that everyone will cheer for it. I don't know where this purple star is, but I want to create such a purple star through all the stars."
He paused and looked towards the back row.
Almost everyone followed his gaze and looked over.
Yan Yueqing, who was drowsy after listening to the meeting, was awakened by the fiery gazes of the crowd.
No? Why are you looking at me?!
Especially when Li Manman and Meng Chengchu turned their gazes over, her scalp went numb!
What are you doing!
