Entertainment starts with variety shows

Chapter 410 Dissolution of the Artist Department

Xiong Li chatted with Fang Jing for a while and left voluntarily, leaving room for Yang Zi. His role was only as a manager, and what Yang Zi wanted to talk about next had nothing to do with him.

"You're still getting used to it here, how are you doing?"

"Eh..." Faced with Fang Jing's polite words, Yang Zi was at a loss for words.

She came to the company every day to clock in and report, stayed up until noon to eat, and clocked out of get off work in the afternoon. No one cared about her, and she didn't know if it was good or not.

There is no agent, no announcement, no endorsement, no script invitation, this kind of life makes her feel like going back to a few years ago.

"Haha, it's okay. The people in the company are nice and the environment is beautiful, but it's a bit idle and there's nothing to do."

"Take a few days off and you won't be so free next month."

"Is there a drama filming?" Yang Zi sat up straight and regained his energy in an instant.

The job of an actor is to make movies, not having a movie is equal to being unemployed, and she hasn't forgotten Fang Jing's promise to her heroine.

"Yeah!" Fang Jing nodded slightly, "This time you are not the first woman, you should be the third woman and the fourth woman."

"Thank you Mr. Fang, sorry for the trouble."

For the time being, she is content to be able to mix with a third female and a fourth female. It is indeed a bit unrealistic to play a female role directly with her current position.

Fang Jing sighed slightly, "The company is very busy now, two dramas are being filmed at the same time, and there is a shortage of manpower, please feel wronged first, and when the new drama is released, I will arrange you to play the female lead."

Nanjing Entertainment has expanded to more than 400 people. There are [-] to [-] people who come to the company to clock in every day, but there is still not enough manpower. Artists and managers are scarce.

With Fang Jing's current ability, it is already the limit to support the simultaneous shooting of two dramas, and any more will be too much.

Don't you see that Ying Haoming is still doing odd jobs on the crew in the name of the people, Xiao Zan is hosting weddings everywhere, hotels are opening, and Zhang Mingen is supported by Xu Shi.

When the matter came to an end, Yang Zi changed his melancholy and said with a smile, "It's okay, I also know a little about the current situation of the company. I don't worry about the lateness of a good meal, I can wait."

She wasn't afraid of waiting, what she was afraid of was being aimless, unable to see the future, and waiting endlessly. Since Fang Jing explained to her, she felt much more at ease.

In the name of the people and Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom, the filming will be completed in at most half a year, and then it will be her play. Counting the time, after finishing the supporting role in front of me, the next one will be the main character, and the time is just right.

It's good to meet a reasonable actor, Fang Jing nodded happily, "Just tell us if you have any difficulties, and the company will definitely solve them. If there are no accidents, the script will be in your hands in a few days. Come on!"

"I still have some business over there, see you later." After speaking, Fang Jing stood up and walked towards Yang Ning's office to handle his business.

After the conversation, Yang Zi found a place to read the materials. Anyway, he was idle. A few hours later, Fang Jing came out of the office exhausted when he was about to get off work.

"Well, if you want to suffer in front of others, you will have to suffer in future."

Looking at Fang Jing's bleak background, Yang Zi sighed, "No wonder his career is so successful. Sure enough, his success didn't come from sleep. Who can see the hard work and sweat behind it?"

……

"Director Kong, it's the first time we've met, I've known you for a long time, and I've wanted to cooperate with you for a long time, I didn't expect it to be this way."

"Hahaha, Mr. Fang, I really want to cooperate with you, but your salary is a bit high, I'm afraid I can't afford it."

"Director Kong, my salary is generally recognized as the lowest in the industry, and it's all for free or several million movies. Your news is wrong."

At Noon Film and Television Company, Sitting opposite Fang Jing is the director Kong Shen, who has directed Langya Bang, The Pretender, All Quiet in Peking, Surgical Situation and other classic dramas, a veritable great director.

Next to Kong Shen is Hou Liang, who is in charge of the family at noon.

"Boss Fang, our company just wants to buy a copyright, so you don't need to come here in person, right?" Hou Liang wondered, their company took a fancy to the copyright of a novel and wanted to adapt it to a TV series. .

Some time ago, the company sent people to Nanjing to discuss, as long as the price was reasonable, they would buy it, and they were all ready to bleed, but Fang Jing came over in person.

"Mr. Hou, I'm here to give away the copyright. Not only the copyright, I've finished the script." Fang Jing beckoned, and Wu Jiajia, who was standing next to him, opened his briefcase and took out the outline of the Ode to Joy script.

"To be honest, I originally wanted to start work on this drama this year, but it was delayed by the crew in the name of the people."

The works he liked were gone, and Kong Shen was very depressed. This was not the first time. The copyrights of several works he was optimistic about were in the hands of Nan Jing, and he didn't know why Fang Jing's eyes were so thieves.

"Then you are..."

"Win-win cooperation." Fang Jing continued after taking a sip of tea, "To be honest, I don't lack money, but manpower is really tight."

"Mr. Hou has a lot of talents here, and the most important thing is people. Why don't you cooperate? Even if you get the copyright, you have to find someone to invest. Why can't this person be me?"

For a while, Hou Liang and Kong Shen were silent and did not speak, Fang Jing was not short of money, they believed.

Just people on Journey and The Return of the Great Sage are making a lot of money, not to mention Wolf Warrior 2, which is about to be released and has a box office of several billion.

But the copyright is in Fang Jing's hands, the investor is him, and the actor is probably also him, so they can't become part-time workers in the film and television at noon?
Looking at Kong Shen, Hou Liang said, "President Fang, why don't we talk about selling copyrights, the price is easy to negotiate."

"Why? Give me a reason anyway?" Now Fang Jing was depressed. What he thought was safe had gone wrong. Are there still people in this world who have feuds with money?

"Mr. Fang, to be honest, the company is strict about casting..."

"Cough cough!!"

Hearing Hou Liang cough, Kong Shen pushed the black-rimmed presbyopic glasses and said with a smile, "Well... suitable, yes, it is suitable, we only choose the right ones, not expensive ones."

Hou Liang sighed, frowned and said, "Mr. Fang, you know about Noon's reputation. It's not that your acting skills are bad. It's just that most of this drama is a female drama, and there are many aspects that need to be considered."

"And to be honest, the company held a meeting at the beginning of the year to discuss disbanding the artist department. This project is estimated to be implemented after a while. From now on, only suitable people will be employed."

"If you invest, I welcome it, but you must follow the procedures for employing people, otherwise it will be bad for everyone if you smash the signboard."

Fang Jing clapped his hands and laughed loudly: "Disband the artist department and concentrate on content production. I'm afraid only you in the entertainment industry dare to do this. Mr. Hou, I admire you. You are so courageous."

"Thank you." Hou Liang waved his hand and said modestly, "It's just a road that the company must take when it develops to a certain stage. Don't rely on cronyism and choose the best actors. Only in this way can you produce better works, and you will experience it in the future. "

"I hope there will be a day. At present, our company has just started, and it is too far away from this step."

After a while, Fang Jing pushed the outline of the script in front of Kong Shen, "The two of you may have misunderstood. I don't participate in this play, I just invest in it."

"Really?" Kong Shen narrowed his eyes in disbelief.

These days there are still wolves who don't eat meat. No one will believe what they say. They are also tired of investors who keep arranging people into the group and disrupting the shooting plan many times, so they want to lay off the artist department to express their determination.

I don't even need my own people, so why don't you keep pushing people?
