I'm a Director, I'm Not Bad Chapter 519

   "Director Xu, hello, hello... I'm really sorry, please come out and pick us up."

  At the entrance of the office building, Song Wen, Li Ziwei, and two young men and women who seemed to be young were courteous to Xu Xin.

"Ha ha."

  Xu Xin shook hands with him and said:

"There are a lot of people coming to the factory these days, especially the re-recording of "The Voice" over there. There are many fans, fans, who are very curious about our factory and like to walk around. But the office building is the most important thing, so If you don't come to pick you up, you might not be able to come in.”

   After explaining the reason, he looked at the two unfamiliar faces next to him.

   "These two are...?"

   "Hi Director Xu, I'm Xu Kaibin."

   "I'm Li Ningning. We are both co-founders and alumni of the film festival."

   "Oh~~~"

  Xu Xin smiled and nodded:

   "Welcome, welcome. You've been around this morning, haven't you?"

   "Yes, the factory arranged for someone to take us around the honor room, the museum..."

  Speaking of this, Song Wen's eyes showed a trace of emotion:

"When we were studying in school and started doing film exhibitions, we actually had a systematic review of our country's film history. At that time, we made materials and knew that our factory is very powerful... But this morning, we finished the transfer to the museum. Only then did I truly realize the contribution of the entire Western Film Studio...to Chinese films. No matter how much information is produced, compared with the reality, it is still ignorant..."

  Even if what he said was false, Xu Xin would take it seriously.

  Because it is the truth.

  The position of Xiying Film Factory in the history of Chinese film...

  It's really dazzling.

  Although it is not the one born from 0, its glorious history is engraved into the cup of honor of the entire Chinese movie... and it is the most solid piece.

  Any filmmaker, come to the museum of the Western Film Studio and see the handwriting, film, and even some props of those predecessors...

   can feel this heavy heritage.

  Xu Xin is no exception.

  So, these people's reverence for Xiying Studio, at least for its glorious history, is justified.

   He was exchanging greetings at the door, when suddenly, he heard a sound:

   "Old Xu."

  Including Song Wen, several people turned their heads subconsciously, and saw a big Bentley parked in the parking space under the steps.

  Wang Sicong got out of the car:

   "The concierge parking space at the door is full, shall I park here?"

   "Stop."

  Xu Xin waved his hand casually:

   "I have guests here, go and do it."

   "I know, let's go."

"Bye-Bye."

  Wang Sicong stood on the electric scooter and walked directly towards the studio.

   Then Song Wen asked:

   "Is that...Wanda's President Wang?"

  Although Xu Xin has several good friends, it is no secret on the Internet.

  Especially in the past few months, I can often see videos of a few people going in and out of a certain restaurant in Xi'an to have a good meal.

  The reason why they were photographed a lot was that few of them seldom went to big restaurants.

  The ones I go to are all old shops that only authentic old Shaanxi people will choose.

  The environment of the old store is not so good, but the good thing is that the taste can soothe the soul.

When you walked into an old restaurant you used to eat and enjoyed your "one-person meal", suddenly you saw the singer of "Nunchuck" appearing in your earphones, sitting in front of a table like this, It is impossible not to be surprised.

  Especially looking at Fang Zhenger's bowl of noodles and a head of garlic, holding a straw in the virtue of sucking Bingfeng...

  So now there is even a saying on the Internet that "Jay Chou's Xi'an eating place check-in route" is said.

   Moreover, according to rumors, those wild tour guides also made a ground itinerary.

  Many tourists who come here for fame will be arranged to eat in special restaurants that "Jay Chou, director Xu Xin, and Lang Lang" have eaten after following the tour guide.

   As for whether there is any interest chain behind it, I will not mention it for the time being.

  Anyway, Brother San has indeed made a wave of contributions to the promotion of Xi'an's tourism PPT.

What?

  You ask the old man?

  Is he a celebrity?

   Of course, this is a joke.

  He is quite famous. After all, you may not know who Wang Sicong is, but you must have been to Wanda.

  And the addition of such a famous rich second generation made the meal of these four people a little out of thin air...a temperament recognized by many ordinary people who eat melons.

  After all, the stories from ancient times to the present, isn't everyone's favorite stories about gifted scholars and beauties, or private interviews with micro-services?

  Song Wen also knew Wang Sicong.

   After getting Xu Xin's nod, he had more thoughts in his heart.

  If...

  Director Xu can accept us...

  Can't we have a relationship with Wanda?

  When the time comes...won't you worry about sponsorship?

  With this in mind, Xu Xin led them into the office building.

   Soon came to Qi Lei's office.

   When leading them to visit in the morning, Qi Lei showed up and made arrangements for the visit.

  So it's not considered an honor for everyone to meet, but after sitting on the sofa in the office, Song Wen and the others felt a little restrained.

   After all, as the boss of the distribution company, Qi Lei is the powerful leader of Zhenger Bajing Xiying Studio.

  The topic has to start from Xu Xin.

   "President Song."

  Holding a teacup, Xu Xin asked with a smile:

   "The film exhibition procedures have been sold?"

   "Uh... yes."

  Song Wen nodded:

   "We were going to talk about it. In fact, selling to 10 million won't be a problem... But I really don't want to waste money. In the end, 8.5 million was a one-off price, and I paid on the spot, so I followed them to go through the formalities."

   One in and one out, a loss of 1.5 million.

   Certainly not small.

Can…

how to say.

   He is still a little young after all.

  As soon as these words came out, Xu Xin and Qi Lei knew what to talk about today.

  People have different personalities.

  Some people like money, and this kind of people occupy the majority.

   There's nothing wrong with liking money.

   Some people feel that money cannot buy ideals. Ideals are more important than money.

   Such people are a minority.

   To put it bluntly, this afternoon is not a negotiation, and everyone is looking for an entry point.

  Although I don't know the truth or falsehood, once Song Wen said this, it was equivalent to allowing the two of them to find an entry point.

   "Is that so... that one person can divide a million or so?"

"No. After discussion among our four co-founders, we decided that the 8.5 million was taken out to compensate the volunteers who worked hard for the film exhibition. Then we took another 500,000 Wan gave compensation for the dismissal of the department heads. The rest..."

  Speaking of this, Song Wen was a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said:

"I came here today with sincerity. Although everyone disagrees with me, I still want to be honest with Director Xu and Mr. Qi. The remaining 6.5 million, after seeking everyone's suggestions , The four of us shared 1.5 million, and the remaining 5 million, we didn't move...but wanted to use it as...the start-up capital for the next film festival."

   Subtext: Regardless of whether Xiying Studio accepts us or not, we already have a start-up capital of five million. Accept, we can move over. If not accepted, we can use the money to run our own film festival.

   It's a bit like "coercion".

  But... To be honest, it's a mess of childishness.

   It is not safe to say.

   At most, it can be regarded as a little confidence.

   But Xu Xin asked himself, he was actually very satisfied with Song Wen's treatment.

   Four people are 1.5 million, and one person is more than 300,000 but less than 40.

   Not many.

   What's more, if you can get the 8.5 million, you still don't forget the old brothers who followed you before. Even if you don't like such kind people in the workplace, you can't live with hatred.

   Very kind.

   Seeing this, Xu Xin thought for a while, and felt that there were some things that were unnecessary to talk about.

   Having said that, they may not understand.

   If you say it too deeply, it may cause others to misunderstand.

  So, he changed his strategy, put down the water glass, and said directly to the four people:

"Then let me get straight to the point. Let me answer Mr. Song's question first, that is, you asked me before whether we are going to do a film festival. My answer is: Yes, we are going to do it. What I will tell you next Well, it does not contain any hidden meanings, what it means literally means what it means..."

   Several people subconsciously sat up straight.

   After Qi Lei heard what he said, he leaned back on the single sofa.

   I don't plan to speak anymore.

  Director Xu's ability...he knows it well.

  If anyone underestimates him because of the so-called "no hair on his mouth, he can't do things well", then there will be no other end except for his **** face.

   At the beginning, he was almost the one who planned to settle Liang Bingning.

   And now?

what's the result?

  The answer is self-evident.

  So, since Director Xu wants to take over, let's chat.

"We really want to hold a film festival, and we have already received support from the city and the province. As an important link in Shaanxi's cultural and tourism industry, we will build an ecological industry chain for western film and television with the Xi'an Film Studio as the center. In future plans, Xi'an In addition to Yanjing and Shanghai, it will become another film and television industry concentration place. There will be industrial parks, film and television bases and other supporting industries. Can the four understand the significance of these supporting facilities?"

"able."

  Li Ziwei nodded subconsciously.

   "Well, at first glance, we just set up a film and television base, which is no different from so many film and television bases across the country. But there are still differences in essence.

   First of all, this is a cultural and tourism package. Although we are following the old road of Zhejiang, our eyes should actually be more focused. Xi'an's film and television industry will focus on fusion elements and complement the cultural and tourism industry, rather than being limited to a certain place or a certain film and television city. This is actually not a big difference for the crew, but for the tourism industry, it is still very attractive.

  Don't think about how we compare with Hengdian and Xiangshan. There is no point of comparison. Our layout is not simply based on a film and television base, but the common prosperity of the resources of the film and television industry combined with the support of the film and television base...or to put it more vividly, it is to revive the position of the Northwest Circle. The resources are mainly It is pouring towards the film and television personnel. "

  When they heard the "Northwest Circle" in Xu Xin's mouth, several people understood the meaning behind this very official news at first glance.

   Then Xu Xin continued to say:

   "As for the film festival, we do not reject commercialization, but we reject excessive commercialization. So, in this regard, Mr. Song, your pursuit is essentially the same as our pursuit."

   "Director Xu, the format of this film festival..."

   Song Wen asked subconsciously.

  Xu Xin nodded:

   "It can be long or short."

   All four eyes lit up.

   "It can be long or short!? Just... like ours!?"

"No."

  Xu Xin shook his head:

"To be precise, it can be fixed at a certain time of year like the three major European companies. As a filmmaker's carnival week and carnival month. In other words, step by step to become a filmmaker in the circle, and An ideal place for foreign movie fans.”

   Song Wen gasped loudly.

   subconsciously asked:

   "Shaanxi support!?"

   "Exactly."

  Xu Xin nodded, his tone was quite certain:

   "Provincial support."

   After finishing speaking, Qi Lei also said:

  "The approval procedures are already in preparation. Once approved, the next step is to formulate and discuss the specific details of the format of the film festival. In terms of preparation time, we estimate that it will be one to two years."

   "Then...then...we..."

   "Actually, this is not good news for you."

  Xu Xin suddenly poured a basin of cold water.

   Then Qi Lei shut his mouth under the puzzled eyes of the four people.

  The cooperation between the two is as tacit as metaphysics.

   "President Song, it's like this. I want to ask... are all four married?"

  Xu Xin suddenly asked a very irrelevant question.

   "Uh...Ziwei and I don't have one, Ningning has a partner, Binzi is divorced..."

  Xu Xin's mouth twitched.

  Xu Kaibin is a little embarrassed...

"Well, the reason why I ask this question is actually very simple. First of all, Mr. Song, I understand what you mean. You think you have money, and after you find a suitable city and get official endorsement, leave Yan After Beijing, you can hold another film festival, right?"

"…Um."

   "And when you come to the factory, you actually want to cooperate, right?"

"right."

"But you have never thought about what kind of conditions are required to be able to cooperate with the factory... Just like this film festival, we can actually handle it by ourselves. So, first of all, in terms of cooperation, your door has been closed Closed."

  His words seemed to make the atmosphere worse.

  However, although Xu Xin was playing the game, he didn't show any decisive attitude.

   Their dreams are too pure.

   After Xu Xin said this, he felt a little despicable.

  So, he simply cut to the chase:

   "So, the reason why I asked you if you are all married is to consider whether you will have difficulties in your family if you are invited to work in Xiying Studio."

  Song Wen's mind sank.

  The idea of ​​"find another way" popped up in my mind.

   But after hearing this, he was taken aback...

   "Come to Xiying Studio...to work?"

"right."

  Xu Xin continued in the eyes of the four people:

"We lack experience, but the four of you have experience. Mr. Song, we are not short of money. You just saw that Wanda has been cooperating closely with us since "The Voice". Their size It may be very large, but the brand value and strategic development of enterprises that have reached this stage are bound together. As the largest theater company in China, they are very happy to have a film festival whose word-of-mouth and artistic components are in line with mainstream values ​​to help them Improve your brand value."

  Hearing this, all four people nodded.

  But Qi Lei narrowed his eyes slightly.

  But he didn't say anything, the old **** was still there.

"We don't lack money. We don't lack people either. But what we lack is experience in pilot operations. Considering your situation, I would like to extend an invitation to the four of you on behalf of Xiying Studio. I invite you to join Xiying Studio , become one of the core members of the film festival management."

   The four people were obviously shocked after receiving the news, and they didn't know how to react.

   And their appearance was also within Xu Xin's expectation.

  So he smiled and said:

   "Let me first tell the four of you about the benefits of joining.

   First of all, it is included in the official establishment of Xiying Film Studio, and your starting point is very high. As an externally hired internal supervisor. The treatment is the deputy director.

  After the film festival starts, the factory will hold an internal interview, and then you can directly raise your correction. In other words, first of all, in terms of personal future, the four will be staff members of state-owned enterprises after they become full-time employees. Enjoy a series of normal establishment treatment.

  You must know that if you follow the formal assessment, those newly recruited in the factory can only start from the grassroots staff. And when you first came in, you were at the deputy director level. This is an exception among exceptions, and it is a manifestation of our sincerity.

  Secondly, it is about the remuneration at work, and the reimbursement for business trips will not be mentioned. What I want to say is that I believe that through the film exhibition, the four have discovered the disadvantages of private film exhibitions. To be honest...Even if you follow the four of you's ideas and find a city that can support you...the five million can't help but spend it, right? "

  Song Wen knew that Xu Xin was telling the truth.

  Five million is at most used as the start-up capital for the first session. After all, if the film festival wants to attract people and increase its influence, it is impossible without a support plan. And what does the support plan rely on?

  Money chant.

  Five million is a lot for ordinary people.

  Can be for movies…

   Splashes are not counted.

  Even if we can get special financial support from the supported cities at that time...

   But the question is how many can there be?

Hundreds of thousands?

  One million would be the best.

  That's not enough...

   And also consider the city influence...

  They also worry.

   Then Xu Xin continued to say:

   "As for the promotion channel, let's not mention it. Our factory is a state-owned enterprise, and all the rules are the rules of state-owned enterprises. But in any case, it is certain that the four will enter the editor-in-chief. So the future is still very bright."

   "Then...who will decide when the time comes, I'm talking about the film festival."

   Li Ziwei asked subconsciously.

"Well, when the time comes, everyone will be a part of the film festival, so of course we have to work together. But the division of labor is still very clear. The four members with past experience can quickly form a mature team. To put it bluntly... the influence of the film festival It is linked to the future of the four of you. And the so-called what you say is what you say...in fact, this is not how it is viewed in the enterprise."

  Xu Xin smiled and explained to her:

"We accept the leadership of the company, and we have a strict process for everything we do. We may not respond as fast as those private companies, but in terms of whether the foundation is solid or not, commercial private companies cannot compare with us. Each has its own advantages, but for the film festival In terms of the gold content, we must be higher in the end..."

  Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and broke his promise to point to the four people:

   "Don't underestimate the wisdom of the collective. Private enterprises can make mistakes, but state-owned enterprises will never make mistakes."

  Although this statement sounds absolute at first glance.

  But he felt... these four people are not stunned, and they should understand what he means.

   "We... need to think about it, is that okay, Director Xu?"

   "Of course, tomorrow is the celebration of the establishment of the Art Creation Home·Talent Center, go back and rest more, let's chat after the celebration ends tomorrow."

   This is the end of this meeting after nearly an hour.

   During this period, in addition to topics such as salary, staffing, and prospects, the four people talked most about the right to speak.

  Xu Xin could tell that they were somehow covered by something.

  I imagine Xiying Studio as a behemoth with a rigid system...

   But actually?

   In fact, the same can be said.

  The so-called rigidity of the system can be explained more bluntly because they don't understand.

   Don't know how to do it.

   Those who don't know how to carry out work.

   In fact, how can there be such a heavy bureaucracy?

  That's just a tinted filter.

  Losers talk about bureaucracy to cover up their failures.

   Fools talk about bureaucracy to cover up their stupidity.

   If you don't understand, won't, or don't do it, then it will naturally become rigid.

   Understandable, well-understood, and accomplished, then when it comes to rewarding the three armies for meritorious deeds, naturally no one will be missing.

  Light and shadow are always in balance.

   But they always change with the angle of the sun.

  When the sun is high enough, the shadows are very small.

   After all, even the leader has a vegetarian meal, so it is understandable for everyone to be bad.

  However, Xu Xin dare not say that he is very clear about the West Film Studio.

   But at least I can know what I know.

   Otherwise, he would not choose to support without hesitation.

  Good birds choose wood to live in.

   Who is not only a golden phoenix?

  After seeing off the four people, Xu Xin lit a cigarette comfortably, and asked with a smile:

   "How is Brother Qi feeling?"

   "Still younger."

  Qi Lei shook his head in disappointment:

   "What do you think of us? Master Guan?"

   "Haha, it's normal. After all, they have also hit a wall, so it's understandable to generalize. But..."

  Xu Xin was smoking a cigarette, recalling every time everyone talked about various things about the film festival, their sparkling eyes...

   "If they can join, then it must be some good comrades."

  Hearing this, Qi Lei was a little surprised at the high evaluation Xu Xin gave.

   Conquering the little dissatisfaction of "being underestimated" in my heart, after thinking for a while, I said:

   "I hope they chose the right path... Speaking of sponsorship, Director Xu has an idea?"

   "No. Just now, Wanda was talking about the matter. When we came in, we just met Wang Sicong, so we just pulled a tiger's skin."

  Xu Xin quickly shook his head.

  But Qi Lei was happy:

   "Haha, I think they are quite suitable. The premise is that if they can be stable for a long time..."

"Well…"

  Xu Xin showed a thoughtful look.

   A moment:

   "It's really... As for whether it can be stable, I don't think it's a problem. After all, it's just a drizzle for them."

   "It's not a lot. They don't need support funds, and the convenience provided by the film festival alone is enough."

   "That's true... But you can't just count on them. Let's see how many like-minded and excellent partners there are, how about it?"

   "Hahaha~"

   "Haha~"

  Haha, the two finished exchanging some subtext.

   All are happy.
