Chapter 5 Dispute (Part 2)
"I think what Xu Hui said makes sense. Didn't he say it some time ago? Our company must not only be competitive, but also have a conscience!"
‘…The biggest battle facing Chinese companies is not a global financial crisis. It is not an economic recession, it is not a review, it is not a capital, it is not a talent… The biggest challenge is the operator’s concept and mind!’
Xu Liang, who had been listening attentively, also spoke.
Follow the master and learn in-depth the core socialist values!
Now that the company is developing more and more, we must follow the leaders' ideas and concepts.
Otherwise, it would be too late to think about whether you did something wrong after hitting the gun hole...
“…Is this conscience a little too expensive?”
Huang Wen is still a little confused. A screening hall generates at least tens of millions of box office revenue every year, and at least dozens of first-tier cities across the country. After accumulating, the amount of money thrown out in a year is at least hundreds of millions of dollars!
Moreover, according to Xu Hui and Ye Ning's meaning, their purpose is not only to the art theater, but also to encourage art movies!
Is there too much money, and I'm so burning?
Everyone knows that making literary and artistic movies these days is like a dead end!
No literary and artistic movies in the world can be sold. Even in North America, the most mature market, there may not be a literary and artistic movie in the top 50 box offices every year!
However, North America, France and the United Kingdom have set up special art theaters for long-term screening of literary and artistic films.
In a mature film market, art films must be encouraged. Most of the so-called award-winning movies refer to art films!
Most Hollywood filmmakers know that commercial movies and popcorn types can win a little box office, but it’s better to give way to art films during the awards ceremony!
However, the Chinese film market is different, especially in the following years, when excessive pursuit of box office has led to basically no good works on the market.
Moreover, Xu Hui did not say that he placed his main force on the mountain of literary and artistic films, but just encouraged literary and artistic films. The market that is too distorted will eventually arouse public dissatisfaction, and the ultimate backlash will still be the market itself!
Just like Shaw Brothers, who was too pursuing commercial benefits at the beginning, the end result was being surpassed by a bunch of rising stars!
"I support Xu Hui, and I will always support you!"
Chen Farong looked at Huang Wen and strengthened her tone...
Huang Wen muttered a few words but didn't say anything.
"Thank you, at least I know that the board of directors still supports me!"
Xu Hui looked at Huang Wen with a little sarcastic look, the latter was a little embarrassed...
...
The form is already very clear. There are no fools here. It can be seen that Xu Hui is just looking for trouble, and the person he is looking for trouble is naturally Huang Wen!
Xu Liang and Ye Ning looked at each other, and at the same time showed an unknown smile.
Chen Farong stared at Xu Hui with great interest, as if she wanted to know how he would speak!
Xu Hui also lit a cigarette, protruding out of the smoke ring, his eyes were always staring at the rising blue smoke, and suddenly said, "Tell me, what's going on in North America?"
"…What?"
"Why didn't you win those three projects?"
Xu Hui frowned slightly, most annoyed by this kind of sloppy behavior!
"Oh, that's because the board didn't pass..."
Huang Wen naturally found a partner to take the blame...
Xu Hui slapped the table and his voice increased a little: "Don't push anything onto the board of directors. If I don't have my order in the future, no board meetings are allowed!"
Huang Wen's face turned red, and Xu Hui's words were slap in the face in public!
"…Also, I will be personally responsible for North America in the future, and the film business will be handed over to Ye Ning and Brother Wen. You should focus on the TV drama business in the future!"
In one sentence, Huang Wen directly took Huang Wen from the high-ranking vice president to the project manager, and it was Huiwen's mature TV drama business...
"I…"
"What are you? "Dallas Buyer Club", you don't even look at the standard Ao movie? You don't even look at the comedy movies that "Neighbor Wars" can definitely sell well? With your eyes, how dare I hand over Huiwen to you?"
"You can't just get rid of my position so casually. We are listed companies, and senior management changes require the board of directors..."
"Then I will delist and privatize it!"
Xu Hui glared at Huang Wen, thought for a while, and advised: "Brother Wen, everyone's talent is limited. God has given him 80 points of ability. Don't fight for the extra ones, and it's useless to fight for it!"
Before Huang Wen could speak, Xu Hui continued, "Your strength lies in communicating with people, so you are a very good agent. Of course, these connections also played a great role in the early stages of Hui Wen. It can be said that if Hui Wen can go public, you will definitely make great contributions!"
He paused: "But now it's different. Huiwen has ushered in the most critical development period. What we are looking for now is not only development, but also to build a good image! It's of course good to make money, but we have to do some movies even if they don't make money!"
"Why? Because Huiwen is the number one in the country, we have social responsibilities that other companies do not have to bear. If a film company only wants to make money, it will never get into the hearts of the audience!"
"Brother Wen, this is your limitation. You don't understand movies. I have confirmed the investment in "Dallas Buyer Club", and the same is true for "Neighbor Wars"!"
"...You are the major shareholder. No matter how you say it, I will do it!"
Huang Wen sneered, not paying attention to the content in Xuhui's words at all. He only knew that he had been dismissed!
In his opinion, Xu Hui's behavior is a typical example of "the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden; the cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys are cooked". He is jealous of the virtuous and capable!
Xu Hui sighed, and then said to Ye Ning: "...It is of course a good thing to sell a low-cost movie, and I am very happy, but we are the producers of the movies. It is best to have a work with accurate box office expectations. In this regard, Ye Ning is still relatively professional. I am more at ease with the film business to you!"
I was too lazy to explain so much. Since Huang Wen had already determined that he was killing a donkey, let him think so!
Partners are like couples. After getting along for a long time, a bunch of conflicts will appear unconsciously.
"...But what to do with the theater business? It is now a critical period of integration!"
Ye Ning hesitated for a moment.
"It's okay, let the theaters give it to your deputy!"
Ye Ning has always been in charge of theater business. Of course, he has a true love for movies, so Xu Hui is relieved to hand over the movie business to him...
As for theaters, to be honest, the so-called integration is to renovate or rebuild the acquired theaters, and then arrange a group of managers to let the word Huiwen go deep into the grassroots employees.
That is to strengthen ideological education work...
"I have three movies to make this year. In addition to "Paradise Cinema", there is also "Beautiful Life", and then "Taking Tiger Mountain in Strategy"..."
"Taking Tiger Mountain in Strategy"? Main theme movie?"
Huang Wen habitually interrupts...
