From Xiangjiang Martial Arts in the 70s

Chapter 194 A Woman's Best Friend: Zhang Guorong

"Mr. Wu is really a big business man."

Chen Yulian tilted her head, the hair on her forehead slipped to the side, she looked a little angry, she said this very politely.

Of course Wu Changyun understood, he sat up straight again and asked Xiao Liu to fetch a copy of the company's agreement.

"I was serious."

Wu Changyun said solemnly, changing from his previous playful attitude of following the wishes of others.

This time he was serious, and there is nothing more touching than sincerity.

Anyone who comes here has their own purpose, just like Chen Yulian, she has something she wants, and she feels that Wu Changyun can give it to her.

Now Chen Yulian is very disappointed, the best way for Wu Changyun to correct this disappointment is to use the simplest and most effective method.

Chen Yulian didn't get up, which meant that the matter was half done.

Wu Changyun asked: "My salary here is higher than that of TVB. Now I will give you twice as much, according to the company's rules, including the dividends of the film, but I think what you need most is how to become famous."

Chen Yulian's white teeth raised lightly, but she didn't speak for a long time.

Because Wu Changyun's words reminded her that she really didn't come here for money.

To be precise, most people who have reached her level are waiting for an opportunity. It may only take two or three years to make big money, but it can last a lifetime to make small money, but they are still the nameless ordinary people.

Chen Yulian thought about this problem before, and she thought she could do it.

Wu Changyun does not have such a wide viewing group as a TV station. Compared with movies, TV has a natural advantage. Watching TV does not need to pay for every scene, and the scope of independent choices is wider.

Wu Changyun wants to set up a TV station, but obviously this is not something that can be done just by saying it.

At present, the two major TV stations in Hong Kong are all openly tendered by the government, and no company can win it by itself.

Wu Changyun did not catch up with this time. According to accurate calculations, Wu Changyun should have completely started in the late 70s, when the two major TV stations were already very mature.

"In three years, I guarantee that two of your movies will become popular."

"Two movies in three years? Boss Wu thinks too highly of me, right?" Chen Yulian didn't expect that Wu Changyun seemed to be very sincere, but the price he offered was really unacceptable to her.

Now it's rare for an actor to make three or four films a year, and even eleven or twelve films a year. When it comes to Wu Changyun, it becomes two films in three years.

Zhang Guorong, who was just standing at the door to watch the popularity, grinned and pawed at the door frame.

Zhang Guorong saw Chen Yulian's appearance, which is indeed the most popular style now, but just like himself back then, he was full of distrust for the company and Wu Changyun.

But back then, Leslie Cheung jumped into this industry like a parachute, and didn't want Chen Yulian to have a certain foundation.

"Trust the boss, he guarantees that you will be popular. You must know that he never said such a thing to me back then."

Chen Yulian raised his eyes and saw Leslie Cheung, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, what a beautiful man this is.

"Are you fooling me like a child?"

Chen Yulian was a little aggrieved. All the people around her were bragging about it. Even if it was TVB's original promise, they could shoot some high-value dramas.

The dramas with relatively high gold content here are actually clearly divided in TVB.

Most people don't know that, just like the Japanese Shonen Jump manga company, TV dramas also have the so-called kingly genre.

In the past, TV dramas similar to Jin Yong's martial arts were a new turning point after martial arts movies came to an end. This kind of drama has a good script guarantee and a very rich character portrayal, which can easily leave a deep impression on the audience. .

As long as you can get a character with a lot of appearances in this kind of drama, with an already good talent like Chen Yulian, coupled with the careful polishing of the makeup and stylist, it will definitely be popular for a while.

"What do you use to protect me?"

Chen Yulian asked, she didn't hear any clear promise from Wu Changyun.

Zhang Guorong saw that Wu Changyun was a little bit embarrassed, so he went over to Chen Yulian and said, "Actually, our company is divided into echelons. Sister Zhao Yazhi, Brother Fa and I are the first echelons of the company."

Wu Changyun saw that Zhang Guorong was playing his own tricks, so he made a face to the other party.

Zhang Guorong deliberately pretended not to see it, and continued: "Newcomers like Guan Zhijun, Ren Dahua, and Brigitte Lin are the second echelons of the company. Of course, they all suffer from being late, and they will be promoted sooner or later."

"So what does this echelon mean?"

Chen Yulian was a little puzzled, this was the first time she had heard of this word.

The term "echelon" was also mentioned by Wu Changyun in the last meeting, because the company's actors are currently accelerating the expansion of recruitment, and Wu Changyun does not want the salary and treatment of actors to also start to expand disorderly.

So one of the rules for the employees below is the rating system for actors.

Even if it is to poach new actors, ratings and assessments are required. Salaries that exceed the actor's level cannot be used as a negotiation condition, and there are restrictions on the salaries of actors, so that Qi Ji will not be able to hire his own actors in the future.

Wu Changyun's worries are not groundless, because the remuneration of actors has become very scary in the early 80s. No matter how high the company's revenue is, the company is full of such jackpots, and sooner or later it will not be able to support them.

Even if a contract restricting the relationship is signed, the real binding force is not strong.

Because a problem that cannot be avoided in the contract is the amount of liquidated damages, and the contract law also needs to follow fair and reasonable rules. Using this method to restrict the artists under the banner is obviously a drop in the bucket.

So actor rating is a must. Wu Changyun is a very tricky way to let these actors restrict themselves.

There is a saying in the art of war, using barbarians to control barbarians, Wu Changyun adopted a similar method.

"How can I believe what you say."

"I won't lie to you. If I lie to you, after you join the company, you will soon find out that something is wrong. Will I still be able to run away by then?"

Zhang Guorong said to Chen Yulian in the tone of a bosom friend.

Indeed, what other people say may not be very convincing, but Zhang Guorong's temperament has a cute and feminine temperament, which can easily make a woman feel good about him.

"That's a good point."

Wu Changyun sighed secretly in his heart.

"Then I also want to join the second..."

"Yes, it's the second echelon."

Chen Yulian knew that even if she wanted to directly enter the first echelon, it would be hopeless, so she could only make this request.

Wu Changyun thought about Lan Jieying who was waiting at the door, if he arranged Chen Yulian in the second echelon, then he would also insert Lan Jieying in, this...
