Chapter 222: Don’t do things that are not conducive to unity
After returning to the company, Lin Yicheng carefully checked the script of "Taken" again to make sure there were no problems.
Actually, there is nothing much to say about this movie.
In essence, it is an action movie, but it is no longer a traditional police and gangster shootout or fighting in the underworld.
Put on a layer of family affection and touch people's hearts with fatherly love.
Lin Yicheng had his reasons for choosing this movie.
His previous films didn't have any big scenes, they were all dramas.
This kind of movie doesn't really require a lot from the director.
The key lies in the quality of the script and the performance of the actors.
……
Lin Yicheng has his own aspirations.
He can't keep making films like this.
The future will be the era of special effects and blockbusters.
Of course he has to follow the trend, but he also has to lead the trend.
Then, "Taken" is a very good practice work and is a perfect transition film.
After shooting a few films of this type, he will have the experience and his team will have the capabilities to move on to big investments and large productions.
Although, even in the era of special effects, there are only a few successful large-scale productions.
The market is still flooded with a large number of feature films, and the box office is higher and more outrageous than each other.
But could he make that kind of film at that time?
If he makes a "weight loss film", he will definitely be criticized to death!
Since you are the leader, you must play the role of a leader.
Let the higher-ups see his actions, let them know that his gun can not only stab people, but also expand territory!
Only in this way will his gun continue to be used.
He can get adequate care and maintenance.
……
"Taken" is next year's project, so there's no rush.
Lin Yicheng still has a lot of things to deal with.
After just two days of busy work in the editing room, Wang Jinghua came to Xinghe Film and Television Company again.
Lin Yicheng also took the time to meet her.
The meeting was quite pleasant.
Wang Jinghua thought it through and made a decision.
Around October, she will leave Orange Sky Entertainment with her artists and set up her own agency.
Like Star Culture Company, Wang Jinghua was also willing to give 40% of the shares to allow Lin Yicheng to invest.
Lin Yicheng doesn't need to spend money, he just needs to provide some film and television resources or business resources.
In her previous life, Wang Jinghua left Orange Sky in 2008, but now it’s almost a year earlier.
Chengtian Entertainment will be affected even more, which is what Lin Yicheng wants.
To be honest, Wang Jinghua is a very capable person with strong personal charm.
Especially to her artists, it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a "nanny".
For example, Chen Daoming, Carina Lau, Liang Jiahui, Hu Jun, Xia Yu and others have been with her for more than ten years. Wherever she goes, these people go and never leave her.
This kind of cohesion is unique in the circle.
The reason why Wang Jinghua fell into decline later was that he had no background in a large company and lacked sufficient resource support.
Also, as a first-generation agent who was so successful, he was naturally superstitious about his own ideas and methods and was unwilling to make changes. Eventually, he fell behind and was eliminated by the times.
Since she is one of his own, Lin Yicheng is willing to give her some advice.
Lin Yicheng has never worked in the brokerage field, but he has never eaten pork, but he has seen pigs run.
How to digest artist resources more flexibly and effectively and establish and maintain artist brands.
Lin Yicheng simply said a few words about all of these.
It's the same principle again, the same words spoken by different people will have different effects.
Wang Jinghua dared not disobey Lin Yicheng's words.
And after listening to it, I was really inspired.
……
After Wang Jinghua left, Lin Yicheng thought about it.
Now he is a shareholder of two brokerage companies, and with the addition of Galaxy Film and Television Company, he will never be short of artistes in the future.
As long as we successfully acquire the video website next year, there will be enough platforms and resources for these artists to absorb.
Although artists are at the bottom of the food chain in the entertainment industry.
But they are the basis for producing film and television works and are indispensable.
If you control the artists, you control the raw materials of production.
With more artists, the problem reappeared, and it’s still the same old problem.
director!
Besides himself, there was only one Liu Jiang left at the Xinghe Film and Television Company, which was not enough.
Even with non-staff members like Yang Qing and Ning Hao, there is still a shortage.
Zhang Hongsen’s words today have already pointed him in the right direction.
Some ideas and practices also need to be changed.
This time, he plans to recruit a few more directors.
It’s either joining the company or normal cooperation. If the cooperation goes well, it will continue, otherwise it will be a good parting.
Each time we cooperate, we sign a separate contract and agreement, and we just do things according to the contract and get paid.
There must be someone from Beijing Film Academy, and when the time comes, you can ask Xie Xiaojing or Wang Hongwei to help introduce them.
Give back to your alma mater and your mentor.
Those from the Central Academy of Drama are also fine, and even those from the Shanghai Theatre Academy are not picky.
We can't treat people differently, right?
Even if they are from Hong Kong or Taiwan, as long as they are upright and don't do anything weird or form any small groups, like Lin Yufen, he welcomes them.
This way, we are united enough. No one can find fault with us!
……
It's almost September and school is about to start.
Lao Lin, Zhao Yuxia and Jing Tian are also going back to China.
Speaking of which, Lin Yicheng felt quite guilty.
He said the whole family was going on a trip abroad, but he came back halfway and left them behind.
So, this time Lin Yicheng went to the airport to pick him up in person.
The airport, the same airport where Lin Yicheng came back last time.
But the other party's attitude was extremely enthusiastic.
The airport manager personally welcomed Lin Yicheng and invited him to wait in the VIP lounge, which was equipped with tea, coffee, and desserts. He was very attentive.
The person in charge also repeatedly stated that they would arrange for Lao Lin and others to use the VIP channel and the situation like last time would definitely not happen again.
The person in charge also said that they deeply apologized for the inconvenience caused to Lin Yicheng.
In the future, the airport will fully cooperate with Galaxy Film and Television Company in promoting its TV series and movies. The locations can be the terminal hall, departure pillars, LED screens, and certain discounts will be given.
This person in charge is new.
The previous one was fired by the airport.
He was reselling customer information and making illegal profits, but it was already good enough that he was not put in jail.
Be forgiving and forgiving.
Lin Yicheng didn't bother with them anymore.
This time he came here to show some goodwill.
However, Lin Yicheng has decided in his heart that when he has money in the future, he will get a private jet at least.
……
The plane was delayed and Lin Yicheng arrived early. He was a little bored and casually flipped through some newspapers.
I didn’t see the Beijing News, which is good.
After Lin Yicheng made an anonymous report, the media outlet "Beijing News" was visited by the industrial and commercial and cultural departments.
The entertainment industry has suffered from the Beijing News for a long time!
With Lin Yicheng taking the lead, several film and television companies and celebrities, big and small, also reported it together, either openly or secretly.
Of course, we must take so many reports seriously and investigate them thoroughly.
Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.
There are problems with the Beijing News, big problems.
It would be fine to slander and defame the entertainment industry at will, but the key lies in other sectors and fields.
As one of the mainstream media, it jumped to conclusions without actual investigation, causing the loss of credibility.
Being out of touch with the people's actual needs and constantly making comments has severed the relationship between the people and the media.
The extreme and antagonistic attitude disregards the truth and deliberately guides the masses to have wrong perceptions.
Reporters were arrogant and domineering, secretly filming, illegally breaking into the country, and forcing interviews...
What's more, they deliberately take advantage of the grief and suffering of ordinary people to make huge profits for themselves...
So instead of suspending operations for rectification, the Beijing News was directly sealed and closed!
I can only say that it’s very gratifying and he deserves the punishment!
……
Hearing the broadcast that the plane had landed, Lin Yicheng stood up, left the VIP room and came to the VIP channel.
After a while, the figures of Lao Lin, Zhao Yuxia and Jing Tian appeared.
"Big Orange!" Jing Tian rushed over and threw himself into Lin Yicheng's arms.
After her relationship with Lin Yicheng made substantial progress, Jing Tian became less reserved.
"Are you tired from flying?" Lin Yicheng hugged her and rubbed her head.
"I'm fine, but my godfather and godmother are a little tired." Jing Tian said in a soft voice.
"Dad, mom."
Old Lin just nodded, but Zhao Yuxia was not so easy to talk to.
"It's rare that you still remember us as your father and mother."
"You were here to have a good trip, but you left us alone. What's going on?"
"Especially Tiantian, she just..."
"Godmother!" Jing Tian suddenly felt embarrassed and interrupted.
"Okay, I won't say anything more." Zhao Yuxia stopped talking.
"Go home first. I've found a good place to welcome you." Lin Yicheng also spoke quickly.
Since Zhao Yuxia stopped caring about the publishing house's affairs, she has been increasingly becoming an ordinary housewife.
……
After getting in the car, the family drove to Lin Yicheng's house in the HD area.
This was the first one he bought, and Jingtian’s residence was right across the street.
Zhao Yuxia and Jing Tian were packing their luggage and the souvenirs they had bought in the bedroom.
Lin Yicheng and Lao Lin sat on the sofa and chatted.
"Have you dealt with everything this time?" Lao Lin asked.
"Yes, everything has been handled." Lin Yicheng nodded.
"Don't blame your mother for nagging you. You don't know that when you were abroad, she heard about what happened to you and was worried about you. She wanted to come back, but I stopped her."
"I'm sorry to have made you worry."
"You are more promising than me, more capable, and more knowledgeable. I won't say any more. Next time, don't make your mother worry so much."
"I know, I won't."
"Well, let's not talk about this." Lao Lin glanced towards the bedroom and lowered his voice.
"You live here, and Tiantian lives across from you. They're so close, aren't you afraid that she'll see something?"
"Don't worry," Lin Yicheng also lowered his voice and said, "To be honest, I have dozens of property certificates in my drawer. It's impossible for them to come across me. A cunning rabbit has three burrows. I understand."
"You kid." Lao Lin said unhappily, "Anyway, you decide for yourself. If anything really happens, I will still support Tiantian. This attitude cannot change."
