Rebirth 09: Buying a house with a baby UP owner

After "Secrets of Yanxi Palace" got on track, Zhong Meihui started planning the next drama. She wanted to make the film and television company bigger, so the drama series could not be stopped. This was the magic weapon for the company to regain its blood as soon as possible.

After getting money, the first thing Zhong Meihui has to do is to recruit people. She wants to dig out people who may become popular in the future and bring them all under her banner.

Zhong Meihui could only do this by herself. She tried her best to recall the school where the famous stars were in her previous life. Anyone who looked familiar and had some impressions would be handed over a business card, hoping that she could join their film and television company.

"Are you the film and television company that shot "The Princess"?" The students at the film school were shocked when they saw the company's masterpiece. Moreover, the company's next drama is a big star-making production, even if it is only in the preparation stage. A lot of news leaked out.

They knew that there were still many undecided roles in this drama, so they were all excited and hoped to join this future hit.

The entire signing process was very smooth. Zhong Meihui's requirements for artists are not high. She can choose three levels of signing: five years, eight years and ten years. The liquidated damages are also within the range that future income can bear.

"Boss Zhong, will the length of the contract be different, will it affect my treatment in the company?" These children from the film school were not experienced in the world, and they were a little overwhelmed when they saw this selective contract.

"Of course it has an impact. First of all, the longer the contract period, the lower the brokerage company's commission. Moreover, when allocating resources, artists who can develop in the company for a long time will definitely be more inclined. But a long contract period means that there will be a breach of contract. The liability is great, and the compensation for breach of contract will be much greater than the compensation for five years after the contract was signed.”

Zhong Meihui's contract was written very reasonably. She got a lot of benefits and paid a lot of money. Everything was equal.

The group of kids discussed it for a while and then chose the ten-year contract without hesitation. Everyone who enters this industry wants to be famous. If they can't become popular, it's better not to join the industry.

They are afraid that because their contract period is short, the company will have scruples in allocating resources. By then, all the good resources will not be theirs, and they will only be able to play little-known supporting roles in scripts for the rest of their lives, so they sign contracts for ten years to express themselves. of loyalty.

"Sister, when you first asked them to sign for ten years, I thought it would never work. After all, they are just college students and have unlimited possibilities in the future. But if they delay ten years in a brokerage company, then After coming out, he will basically be nearly middle-aged."

Yaoyao couldn't believe it when she saw these people signing contracts one after another. Generally, economic contracts are only five years, and very few are ten years, but here at Zhong Meihui, everyone is unified and no one raises any questions.

"Because I gave them a choice. If I proposed a ten-year contract from the beginning, they would definitely stand on a united front and either negotiate with us to reduce the signing time or not sign the contract. But I gave them a choice and instead let them There are differences and precautions, so in order to be taken seriously in the company in the future, they will naturally choose a ten-year contract."

Zhong Meihui felt that this matter was like an involution. Everyone chose difficult things to compete with each other. In the end, no one got a more favorable treatment. But if you didn't choose difficult things to do, you would still get nothing in the end. arrive.

Zhong Meihui's film and television company suddenly had more than ten actors. They were all familiar to her after seeing them on TV. The others were still young and had not yet gone to film and television school. If she rashly went to various high schools to find people, the workload would be huge. It’s too big, and they are underage and need to be signed by their parents, which is really troublesome. After all, not many parents will let their children take this path before the college entrance examination.

After having good actors, Zhong Meihui decided to recruit two more directors. After all, their business would be more and more in the future, and there would be more than one crew filming at the same time. It would be difficult to rely on Director Wang alone.

Based on her experience in her previous life, she quickly found two young directors, Wu Tao and Lu Shannan. These two directors were still in the stage of untapped talent. When she learned that the film and television company filming "The Princess" was willing to hire them, The two men agreed immediately.

But Zhong Meihui knew that these two young directors were only temporarily in trouble in their career. In a few years, they would become famous and become dark horses in the film and television industry.

"Sister, are these newcomers going to be included in the new drama?" Yaoyao and Tian Peng discussed it and found that there are only some inconspicuous small roles left. These marginal roles can also be played by ensemble casts, but Now that there are so many actors in the company, Yaoyao means to ask everyone to make guest appearances. Even if there are only a few scenes, it can be regarded as a kind of exercise.

"We can't fill the entire crew with our own people. Let other investors give favors to the spare positions. Anyway, these positions are insignificant. If the performance is good, it will be a bonus to the script. If the performance is not good, it doesn't matter. "

Zhong Meihui was ready to train newcomers, but she was not limited to the drama "Secrets of Yanxi Palace". She searched for the copyrights she had acquired before and found a copy of "Yesterday, Good Times" by An Gongzi which was good.

This is a drama about youth and campus. The love line between the male and female protagonists in the previous life also fascinated countless boys and girls.

According to previous practice, Zhong Meihui asked Yun Shanshan to contact Mr. An and ask him to be the screenwriter of this drama.

Mr. An was overjoyed that his work could be put on the screen, and it was produced by a company that is good at producing online dramas. When his novel was bought, he did not hold out such hope. He thought this was just someone buying up copyright IDs in large quantities, but he didn't expect that he would actually join the ranks of screenwriters. This made him not care about the price at all, and he was willing to do it even if he didn't get paid.

Zhong Meihui compressed the TV series to 20 episodes based on her own memories, and narrated the script of each episode to Mr. An, asking him to write the script according to his own ideas.

Several bosses and screenwriters also heard Zhong Meihui's ideas, and they can feel that this is a good drama without reading the final script.

"Director Wang, let me shoot this online drama. I am the best at shooting youth films." Wu Tao and Lu Shannan want to get this opportunity. After all, Director Wang already has "The Princess" and "Secrets of Yanxi Palace" "Two big dramas, which is enough to establish his status in the company.

The two of them have no masterpieces yet, and they urgently need a chance to prove themselves.

"I'm very busy now, and I didn't have time to film this drama. As long as the boss agrees, this matter will be left to you two." Director Wang is not a solitary person, not to mention that youth movies are not his favorite, even if he gives it to It’s okay for others to do it, too.
