Chapter 702: : Shootout

"This is the information I got from the headhunting company. They recommended 3 people who have previously held positions in the movie company. The business ability is completely fine. The rest will require you, the chairman, to make a decision."

Robert put several documents in front of Jiang Hao.

The headhunting company appeared very early. It appeared in the United States in 1926. After decades of development, it is now very mature.

Jiang Hao looked at these files one by one, and only read it once, and kept all the information of these people in his mind.

Robert's choice is really good, not too old, the biggest one is more than 40 years old this year, "Let's find a place to meet them, and listen to their opinions."

The meeting was arranged in an ordinary cafe. Jiang Hao asked for a box. Some people saw this situation and heard that Jiang Hao was a new company that had just been established and had no office space. They were very disappointed.

Jiang Hao doesn't care. Finding someone is two-way. You can despise others, and naturally they can despise you.

At this moment, Jiang Hao was sitting in front of a man in his forties. His name was Conner. He was the last interviewer. He was a little thin, but his eyes were very savvy.

"Mr. Conner, you were previously the deputy general manager of Warner's film department. Why did you leave?" Jiang Hao asked.

Conner shrugged. "Warner's film business has severely shrunk, and it has been losing money for many years. Ten years ago, Warner produced more than 40 films a year. About 5 were five years ago. Only two last year. The company laid off its staff. A lot of people, although they do n’t include me, but I do n’t see hope, so I left. ”

Jiang Hao also asked some professional questions. Conner answered them one by one. Jiang Hao was satisfied with the answer from Mr. Conner. He was not old-fashioned but principled. He did it step by step from the bottom and understood all the business of the film company. It is indeed the talent that we need.

"If you join our company, what treatment do you want to get?" Jiang Hao asked.

"I want to get a shareholding and a base salary of at least $ 1,000," Conner said.

Jiang Hao and Robert looked at each other, and then Jiang Hao said, "I can open an equity incentive mechanism for you."

Direct investment to get shares is completely different from enjoying the equity incentive mechanism. I won't go into details here. In short, the latter does not need to pay money, but it has many restrictions, and it has to be divided into periods. If you ca n’t trade, you can only get dividends. It's a way for the company to retain key people.

Of course, this is mainly at the beginning of the agreement between the two parties, and there are also conditions to obtain real shares.

Jiang Hao's commitment is to increase equity, for a period of 5 years, to obtain a maximum of 5% of the shares, this part of the shares can be paid dividends, working for the company for 8 years, you can get 5% of real shares, this part of the shares from Jiang Hao side.

Conner is satisfied with this condition, and Robert does not object.

The three stood up and shook hands,

In this way, the three giants of Hall came together.

There is still a lot of things going on. Jiang Hao is starting to form a company. Jiang Hao claps and leases an office in Rockefeller Building. Now it is one of the most luxurious office buildings in the United States. When he saw the company nameplate affixed in Rockefeller Hall, I still feel very satisfied.

No matter how small a business is, as long as you do it with your own heart, you will gain a sense of satisfaction.

For recruiting staff, Jiang Hao completely handed it over to Conner and Robert. After all, they were both professional. His task was to get money and keep going out.

And Jiang Hao has begun to put movie shooting on track.

In the conference room, the chairman Jon Hall is sitting on the main seat, the general manager Conner is sitting on both sides, the human resources department, the finance department, the administrative department, the general affairs department, the marketing department, the film and television production department, The director of the performing arts department was present.

The heads of these departments were recruited by Conner and Robert. They are all skilled in the industry and can work quickly after coming.

Jiang Hao said: "The company is set up, I am ready to shoot the first film, film and television production department, start project preparation and form a shooting team."

This is a major event. It is the main body of movie production. Choosing shooting locations and preparing props and equipment are all their business.

"The performing arts department is responsible for finding suitable actors. Let me first say that the starring role of this movie has been determined. Monroe is the heroine, three little raccoons are the heroine. I am the male hero. Your job. "

"The Finance Department is in charge of all the business funds accounts. I don't want the accounts to be chaotic." When filming, finance is a very, very important item. If you don't stare carefully, a lot of money will be inexplicably spent.

This is Jiang Hao's business, and he can't put others in his pocket.

"The integrated business department is responsible for logistics. The marketing business department has an important task for you. I have made a list here. In this movie, there will be a lot of goods and locations. Go talk with them. No need for advertising. In, if they don't need it, talk to another house. "

Advertisement implantation is a kind of hidden advertisement. For example, the car in 007 is a major item of advertisement implantation. Why the 007 car is always so cool is not the reason for the implantation of advertisements by major car manufacturers. To Bond to drive your car, it often costs tens of millions of dollars in advertising costs, which is not a small sum.

On the small side, there are also many advertisements. Take beverages, for example, whether to drink Pepsi or Coca-Cola. This can be discussed with the two. Whoever implants the advertisement and drinks.

In this movie of Jiang Hao, there are many places where advertisements can be implanted, from beverages to home appliances, to places where Monroe works, whether it is McDonald's or KFC, or even the cake shop where Monroe stops. Choose one that is willing to spend money.

...

Hall Film Company is like a car, everyone is a part, and they play their role, and Jiang Hao is the driver, responsible for the right direction.

Although the film industry in New York has fallen, it is still the second largest film base in the United States. It is still very easy to set up a shooting team. All the equipment is rented. As long as you have the money, you can get everything. Actors have various unions and can choose at will. Every year There are countless people looking for opportunities. Just like Monroe, there is no shortage of actors here, as long as there is money.

"Boss, this is the budget form?" The treasurer handed the bill to Jiang Hao.

Looking at each item of Jiang Hao, the director costs 200,000 US dollars, and the leading actor is 10,000 US dollars. The price of Jiang Hao is too inhumane. He only made less than three minutes of footage in it, and he was required to pay 10,000.

The heroine is paid 100,000 yuan. Monroe is a pure newcomer, too high and bad.

Three pet raccoons, each paid $ 50,000, they are all Jiang Hao's pets, they have been registered with the government before, this money will eventually fall into the hands of Jiang Hao, ha ha ha ha.

Jiang Hao is the laundering of Chiguoguo, and the cash used to sell drugs has been turned into a legal asset. You should know that even in later generations, movie money laundering is a major part of money laundering business.

The rest of the actors, such as Monroe's teacher, the bad guy who attacked Monroe, the dog man who got up in the morning, etc., each person has a pay of only a few thousand to several hundred dollars, and those mass actors, dozens of dollars are all Yes, the pay is not listed separately.

The big items are renting props and shooting machines. Film is the biggest expense in it. It is now 1955. There is still a certain market for black and white movies. For example, Monroe ’s "Passion Like Fire", shot in 1959, is black and white film. In truth, Jiang Hao always felt that this was the biggest regret. If I used color film, I don't know how beautiful Monroe would be.

But now color film is really very expensive, basically three to five times the price of black and white film. No wonder that in the 1960s, there were still many directors who used black and white film.

However, Jiang Hao has made up his mind. All his films in the future must be in color without regrets.

Jiang Hao ticked off behind the color film and said to the supervisor: "With color film, our actors don't get much pay for this film, so we can save it and put it in film."

"Good boss."

The financial director went out, and the director of the film and television production department came in again. "Boss, this is our selection of associate directors, as well as actors, drama, set decorators, lighting engineers, sound engineers, stylists, hair stylists, stunts, assistants. , Arrangers and editors will be hired after the final shooting. "

"Boss, we have found two associate directors. They both have filmed before, have rich experience, and even filmed independently. But now the film is in a bad mood. They ca n’t find investors and know there are opportunities to shoot. And would love to come to work. "

...

The director of the film and television production department left, and the director of the marketing business department came in again. "Boss, we have found more than a dozen companies, and 3 of them have been negotiated. They have earned $ 24,300 in advertising revenue ...".

Wanting to shoot a movie is really very complicated. The director needs to arrange all kinds of resources and then produce a work of art. A movie that can reach the level of art is really not easy. This is also what those great directors can The reason for being called a master.

Fortunately, Jiang Hao has super strong memory ability, and he has followed the crew. His physical strength is also very plentiful, which can be completely manipulated.

Seeing that it was already afternoon, Jiang Hao and his secretary said, driving to get home. When the car was driving into a street, Jiang Hao suddenly saw a man in a suit rushing out of the alley next to him.

"Bang, bang!"

There were a few qiāng sounds in the back, and the man in the suit rushed forward and fell down, then he got up hard, opened two qiāngs behind him, and continued to run forward.

People around me saw this situation ~ www.novelhall.com ~, screaming and running around, Jiang Hao quickly braked to avoid hitting pedestrians running around.

But at this moment, the man in the suit had already run to Jiang Hao ’s car. Jiang Hao saw three or four people rushing out of the alley, holding qiāng in his hand, and frequently firing at this side. The man in the suit hurried Hiding behind Jiang Hao's car, he used his body to avoid bullets.

"Snapped!"

"Wow!"

A piece of glass on the side of Jiang Hao's car was broken.

Jiang Hao lowered his head subconsciously to avoid it. At this moment, the rear door was pulled open. The man in the suit quickly climbed into the back seat of Jiang Hao's car, holding Jiang Hao's neck with his hand and saying sternly: "Quick Drive, drive out of the city, fast, or I will drive you to death. "

"Squeak ~~"

Jiang Hao stepped on the accelerator fiercely, and the car rushed out at the fastest speed. Behind them, those people raised qiāng and fired at the car repeatedly. Many qiāng holes were shot from the bottom of the car, but they failed to stop the car from escaping quickly.
