Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

As soon as the photographer Master Song finished speaking, the scene immediately coaxed, and the discussion became more heated.

Obviously, don’t look at the film practitioners here, but for most people, they don’t really understand the real value of photographic equipment. They only have a rough idea, but at best it’s hundreds of thousands or millions of RMB the concept of.

Now that the words of tens of millions of dollars come out, it is inevitable that it will cause a sensation.

You know, although the current RMB to US dollar is not outrageous, it is about 1 US dollar to 1.97 RMB, which is almost a ratio of one to two, but that is the official exchange rate.

In fact, due to the extreme lack of foreign exchange in the country at this time, the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar in the black market has already exceeded [-]:[-], that is, [-] U.S. dollar to [-] yuan RMB.

In other words, if what that old Song said is true, let's not talk about anything else. With just a few photographic equipment, Hongguang Film Factory is a big factory with assets exceeding tens of millions.

You know, at this time, there are only one film studio in China, except for Nortel and Bayi, none of them dare to claim assets of over ten million.

The most important thing is that with a full set of photographic equipment, the factory will not have to worry about food.

Even if you don't make movies, just rent equipment, or even sell one, it will be enough for many years.

So the question is, are those photographic equipment bought or rented in the factory.

It's fine to rent it, but if you buy it, it's really amazing.

While everyone was still discussing enthusiastically, Liu Mo, the lighting engineer, was dragged and ordered a few words, then his face changed, and finally he asked loudly: "Director Cao, you rented those six cameras. Or did you buy it?"

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, and said with a microphone, "It seems that everyone is very interested in knowing, so I'll tell you the truth. In fact, these six cameras and their supporting equipment are all rented by Hongguang Film Studio."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, thinking it was reasonable.

But then Cao Zhiqiang said again: "Maybe you need to ask, who did our factory rent these American equipment from? It's very simple, it's rented from me personally.

To put it bluntly, I entrusted my friends to buy these equipments in my own name, and then rented them to Hongguang Film Studio in my own name. Now everyone understands? "

Liu Mo was stunned, and then continued to ask: "That is to say, you bought the equipment and rented it in the name of Hongguang Film Factory, and then you are the director of the factory?"

"Yes!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded with a smile, "That's it."

"Aren't you using your left hand instead of your right hand?" Liu Mo said speechlessly, "Is it necessary?"

"Of course it is necessary!" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "As the saying goes, brothers settle accounts clearly, let alone a film studio."

After a pause, Cao Zhiqiang said again: "To be honest, our Hongguang Film Studio is a formal film studio that has obtained a formal license from the Film Bureau, and we have all the functions that other film studios have.

However, unlike other film studios, most of them are government-affiliated public institutions in nature.

Our Hongguang Film Factory is a subsidiary unit of Hongguang Machinery Factory. It is a state-owned enterprise and is more inclined to an enterprise.

In addition, our Hongguang Film Studio is the only regular film studio in China that is contracted and operated by individuals.

In other words, Hongguang Film Studio is nominally a state-owned enterprise, but actually it is contracted and operated by myself, Cao Zhiqiang.

Therefore, the management right of our Hongguang Film Factory is actually in my own hands, and the finances are also independent. It has no direct relationship with Hongguang Machinery Factory.

Therefore, what I, the factory manager, is absolutely useful. I said how much you are paid, that is how much, no one can hold you back, understand? "

At this time another middle-aged woman said loudly: "Then if you go back on your word in the future and want to lower your salary, wouldn't we be able to control it?"

Cao Zhiqiang laughed: "Of course not! Although I contracted and operated the film studio, I can't do whatever I want, and I still have to follow some basic rules.

For example, regarding the treatment of everyone after they come in, they all have to sign a contract seriously.

Once the contract is signed, if you want to change your labor treatment, you may even be fired, unless you seriously violate the rules in the contract.

For example, being late for a long time and leaving early, disobeying orders from leaders for a long time, seriously violating the rules and regulations of the factory, etc.

These violations of regulations and disciplines must be recorded, and then you will be dealt with in accordance with the contract, and you will be punished with deductions of bonuses or even dismissal.

In other words, if you sign a work contract, as long as you don't violate the factory rules, then I can't dismiss you casually.

After all, Hongguang Film Factory is a state-owned enterprise no matter what, and it must also follow the rules of a state-owned enterprise and abide by basic labor laws. "

Hearing this, everyone's minds became alive.

After all, who wouldn't want to go to a powerful unit with good pay.

Of course, the general leaders may not be happy, but most of the people who are currently filming are the staff of the Youth Film Studio, and the rest are small people in the Beijing Film Studio, and the salary is not high.

Although Beijing Film Studio is a big factory, there are too many masters in Miao, and it is impossible to take care of everyone.

In fact, most of the resources of the Beijing Film Studio were divided up by those leading directors. Most of the other staff were just dawdling at this time, and their income was actually very low.

When Cao Zhiqiang went to Beijing Film Studio before, he saw a lot of people playing poker in the director's office.

Because really big directors don't go to the director's office in Beijing Film Studio. They all have their own offices, and they can even work from home.

The Beijing Film Studio was also a public institution at this time, and the funds allocated each year were only a small amount, which was distributed by the people at the top, and not much was distributed to the people below.

In addition, 1983 was a difficult time for the country, and the government's lack of money was red-eyed. Units like Beijing Film Studio were naturally the first to be cut off.

Its direct manifestation is to cut off various allowances and bonuses of grassroots employees, and only pay a basic salary.

The basic wages of Beijing Film Factory employees have always been relatively low, lower than that of ordinary workers, so once the income is reduced, life can be imagined.

Compared with Beijing Film Studio, the youth film studio affiliated to Nortel, life is even more difficult.

The Youth Film Studio, formerly known as the Experimental Film Studio of the Peking Film Academy, was originally a small studio affiliated to Nortel, and it was used for students to do experiments and practice their hands.

Later, with the development of the times, the Experimental Film Factory was renamed Youth Film Factory, and it was able to independently produce feature films. However, because the owner was Nortel, and Nortel was a school, its own economic strength was limited. Many, although the idea is good, but limited by economic strength, not many feature films can be made every year, and most of them are documentaries and science and education films.

As a result, the income of the staff of the Youth Film Factory is generally extremely low, even lower than that of Beijing Film Studio.

For example, this time in response to Xu Qingdong's call, the people who came to Jinling to make a film, except for the actors, other props groups, etc., were probably from the Youth Film Factory.

Why are they willing to come? Isn't it because they want to come here to make extra money.

If the main force of Beiying is changed, I'm afraid they won't come. It's not all about money.

But the Youth Film Factory is different. This factory is a subsidiary of Nortel, and it was originally linked to Nortel.

Nortel is on holiday, and Youth Film Studio will also be on holiday.

Even, many of the staff of the Youth Film Factory are still staffed by Nortel, and they are Nortel staff.

This is similar to the relationship between broadcasting bureaus and radio and television stations in many places.

During this period, the radio and television stations in many places were actually subordinate units of the Broadcasting Bureau, and the staffing of many TV stations was actually in the Broadcasting Bureau, holding two positions.

Nortel and Youth Film Studio are similar to the relationship between the Broadcasting Bureau and the broadcasting station.

In the same way, Hongguang Machinery Factory and Hongguang Film Factory have a similar relationship, but the nature of the units is different, and they belong to enterprises.

In other words, if you want to talk about job hopping, the people from Beijing Film Studio may not be very interested, but if you are from the Youth Film Factory, at least those young people are very interested.

Seeing that the people below started to chatter again, Cao Zhiqiang chuckled and tapped the microphone: "Everyone, be quiet, be quiet!"

After everyone gradually calmed down, Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile: "Well, everyone is from the capital, and our Hongguang Film Studio also has a formal venue and office in the capital.

If you are really interested in coming to our Hongguang Film Factory, then don’t worry, you can come to our film factory for detailed consultation after you return to the capital, and think about it before talking.

By the way, our Hongguang Film Studio and Hongguang Publishing House are currently working in the same place, and Hongguang Publishing House is also contracted and operated by me personally, so you can rest assured.

As for now, don't think about it too much, let go of your belly, eat, drink, and be lively!

Alright, I've finished speaking, let's sit down! "

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang waved slightly, and then the waiter who was invited started to come over to serve everyone.

Seeing that the food was served, everyone started to eat and drink.

Of course, the discussion continued, but from the original dry discussion to the current discussion while eating and drinking.

After all, what Cao Zhiqiang said just now is not very attractive to Nortel teachers like Cui Xinqin, but it is still quite attractive to most young people like Liu Mo.

In fact, this is Cao Zhiqiang's goal, because his film studio is just empty now, and now it is taking advantage of the convenience of summer vacation to poach so many people from Nortel. It is difficult for personnel.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang had to recruit a group of people, at least to set up a basic film crew shelf first.

Otherwise, borrowing people every time is not a long-term solution.

When Cao Zhiqiang returned to his table, Xu Qingdong, who was at the same table, immediately gave Cao Zhiqiang a thumbs up: "With you, you actually turned a wrap-up banquet into a job fair?"

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled: "Where is it? It's too late to talk. We've arrived here."

After a short pause, Cao Zhiqiang asked Xu Qingdong back: "Old Xu, what are you thinking, do you want to come to me to be the deputy director of the factory?
Let me tell you, just now, if you pass through this village, if you hesitate again and again, in the future, a more powerful director will come here, maybe the position of deputy director of the factory will not be yours up. "

"Hey!" Xu Qingdong chuckled, picked up a glass of wine and took a sip, "You are really in a hurry, in front of so many people, are you going to dig me out?"

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "They are all our own people, what are you afraid of?"

Indeed, there are not many people at this table now, except for Xu Qingdong, the lead actress Zhu Lin, and photographer and assistant director Song Shifeng and Qi Guanghao.

The five of them at the table can be said to be the five most important people in the entire film crew.

Cao Zhiqiang was willing to win over Xu Qingdong in front of everyone because he was not afraid.

Because except for Xu Qingdong, everyone else counted as one, and Cao Zhiqiang had met alone, and had been wooed alone.

Xu Qingdong is not an idiot either, once he heard Cao Zhiqiang's words, he knew what Cao Zhiqiang meant.

So Xu Qingdong smiled while holding the wine glass, looked at the crowd and said, "Why, you have been wooed by Qiangzi before, are you ready to quit?"

The others looked at each other and didn't speak for a while.

Xu Qingdong nodded, and then looked at Zhu Lin: "Lao Song and Lao Liu, if they plan to change jobs, I can understand that, after all, they really don't have a bright future in their original unit, so it's better to come here for a break.

But Zhu Lin, you are the pillar of the Emei factory now, are you really willing to give up the big factory of Emei factory and go to the small factory of Qiangzi? "

Zhu Lin smiled slightly, and put down the glass filled with soda: "Director Xu, what you said is right, the Emei factory is a big factory, so they don't lack me as an actor, even if I don't have me, it won't make much difference.

But Hongguang Factory is different. Everything here is new, and there are no really important actors yet.

Although my weight is not good, but I am willing to be the horse bone of Qianjin City. "

Xu Qingdong frowned: "You're still messing around with me? Tell me, what kind of treatment does Qiangzi give you?"

Zhu Lin bit his lip, lowered his head and whispered: "He, he said, if I am willing to come, the basic salary is 60 yuan per month, and he will praise me. When Hongguang Factory asked me to film, the salary is not good The treatment will be lower than that of this movie."

"No wonder!" Xu Qingdong shook his head, "The monthly salary is 60 yuan, such a high fixed salary, and the bonus for filming is so high. If it were me, I would be tempted."

"Not only that." Zhu Lin raised his head and said, "He also said, he also said..."

"What else?" Xu Qingdong frowned.

Zhu Lin said: "Qiangzi, no, Director Cao also said that next year at the latest, he will build a number of high-end apartment buildings in the name of the publishing house, and the film studio will also have a share.

So, if I join the Hongguang Film Factory, there will be a place at that time, and I can be allocated a house. "

"My God!" Xu Qingdong was taken aback, and turned to look at Cao Zhiqiang, "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Cao Zhiqiang shrugged, "To tell the truth, I earned more than one million from that set of "Journey to the Rivers and Lakes" and the music album "Life in Bloom". It's just an apartment building, how much can it cost?

And let me tell you, I'm a man, I'm very happy, if I don't build a building, let it go, if I want to build it, I will build it!

At that time, I will build a batch of terraced garden villas, and then build a batch of five-story small western-style buildings. Not only will every household have water, electricity, heating, and gas, but every household will be equipped with an air conditioner. Cool benchmark family building! "

"What about me?" Xu Qingdong asked quickly, "I want to join your factory, do I have a share?"

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang said, "If you join now, I will give you the deputy factory director. As the deputy factory director, how can you not have a share? And you will also get a small villa."

After a pause, Cao Zhiqiang said again: "It's not just you, everyone at this table, as long as they are willing to join our film studio at this time, then each person will be given a small villa, as I said!"

Hearing this, everyone laughed.

"You said earlier that the house would be divided!" Xu Qingdong slapped the table, "I didn't say anything, I'll join, even if it's for the small villa, I have to join."

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's go for our future!"

Everyone hurriedly picked up their wine glasses and drinks, and then clinked glasses with Cao Zhiqiang respectively, and then drank it all in one gulp.

After toasting each other and laughing, everyone continued talking and laughing.

Seeing everyone talking and laughing, especially Zhu Lin's happy smile, Cao Zhiqiang also smiled and squinted his eyes.

Sure enough, as long as you give enough, there will be no one who can't dig!
If that's not enough, then draw another cake.

At this time, people still prefer to eat cakes!

It's very simple!

I like!
