The days of filming in Azure Star

Chapter 158 DreamWorks

The contract with the company is over.

Tang Bao has also truly become a free man.

In just half a year.Tang Bao experienced a life he had never experienced before.

From a middle-aged otaku to a shining star of tomorrow.

Looking back on this journey, I can't say I choked up, but I always felt a heavy feeling in my heart.

Back in the studio, Tang Bao looked at the busy people.

He knew very well in his heart that this was probably his future team.

The future video website must be built.

With the system in hand, there is no reason not to develop such a large treasure house.

Building a website is not an easy task, but the technical requirements are not that high.

Tang Bao plans to use part of the funds first to complete the preparatory work in the early stage.

When the copyright of his movie is unlocked, Tang Bao can directly put it on this website.

But the primary purpose is to set up your own studio.

Give your studio a name.

Tang Bao couldn't help but think of a studio in his previous life.

"Dreamworks."

Tang Bao's management of the company is really not very talented.

Moreover, under the requirements of the system, it is impossible for him to recruit a manager to help him manage his finances.

What is the problem with professional managers managing companies.

However, the liquidity issues involved will all be on the company's books at that time.

It has nothing to do with Tang Bao.

In this case, it will not help at all to obtain tasks and trading points.

So in Tang Bao's heart, Tang Bao had no plans to start a company.

The studio is already the limit.

The studio must be [-]% owned by itself.

And all inflows and outflows of funds use Tang Bao's personal account.

This is the most cost-effective for Tang Bao.

Although there is no equity incentive, the blow to employees may be great.

But Tang Bao is confident to keep all the employees.

What are equity incentives for?

In the end it's not about the money.

As long as Tang Bao pays enough salary, then this is not a problem at all.

When the salary you give far exceeds the incentive reward.

Then they will definitely choose the bonus and salary that they get directly.

Tang Bao was not reluctant to part with this sum of money, but had to take another way to compensate them for the task.

Tang Bao definitely did not complete the studio registration procedures in person.

Qi Dongqiu will arrange everything for Tang Bao.

This girl Qi Dongqiu has been by Tang Bao's side for several months.

Even though the School of Film and Television started, she was still by Tang Bao's side.

Tang Bao thinks that Qi Dongqiu is okay, judging from the fact that she has worked hard since she started her job and has completed the task very well.

Tang Bao felt that he could give her a chance and ask her if she would actually sign to the studio.

Although her previous experience was very bad, her flaws did not hide her strengths.

What Tang Bao needs is a person with excellent work ability and business.

Qi Dongqiu obviously fit Tang Bao's requirements very well.

If Xin Shuang can replace Tang Bao to complete a lot of work, then Qi Dongqiu is equivalent to his clone to help him do some things that he can't spare time to do.

Qi Dongqiu finished his day's work and returned home.

Tang Bao found Qi Dongqiu.

The main reason is the monthly salary of 3000 yuan, which makes Tang Bao a little embarrassed.

Taking advantage of the money in hand, Tang Bao wanted to ask Qi Dongqiu what he meant.

It depends on whether she wants to stay in the studio or go back to school to complete her studies.

"Xiao Qi, you have been sitting by my side for so many days, I want to ask your opinion."

Qi Dongqiu looked at Tang Bao and said, "If you have anything to say, just speak up."

Tang Bao nodded and said, "I want to ask you about your views on the future. What kind of work do you want to do in the future?"

After Tang Bao finished speaking, he felt that something he said was not particularly clear, so he added:

"Actually, what I mean is that I want to ask you to go back to school to finish your studies, or stay in the studio all the time."

After hearing Tang Bao's words, Qi Dongqiu felt a little confused.

Because the initial goal was to get to Tang Bao's side, get the moon first, and finally become the heroine of a movie.

But for so many days, she has been busy.

Waking up is work, and when I go to sleep at night, I still think about what things are not done.

Although hard work, but the mental state is not bad.

Don't worry about food or clothing, travel with Tang Baolu on business trips.

In fact, I am also very happy.

Qi Dongqiu thought for a while and decided to tell Tang Bao what he really thought:
"Actually, what I originally wanted was to be a big movie star. It's the kind of thing that attracts everyone's attention."

Tang Bao knew it well, after all, Tang Bao knew about Qi Dongqiu's past.

"However, I later discovered how difficult it is to get ahead in this line of work."

Qi Dongqiu's eyes were a little wandering, and he didn't know what he was thinking of.

"If given the chance, I would still be willing to become a female star. After all, this is the dream of every acting student of the Academy of Film and Television, isn't it?"

Tang Bao pondered for a while, Qi Dongqiu was actually unwilling to let her go.

Of course it wasn't because he was greedy for her body, it was just that Qi Dongqiu did a very good job as an assistant.

Qi Dongqiu saw Tang Bao's contemplation and smiled: "Why, are you reluctant to let me go?"

Tang Bao nodded without concealing: "I think you have done a good job. From my point of view, of course I don't want to lose you."

Qi Dongqiu said unhappily: "So you want to tie me by your side all the time?"

Tang Bao shook his head: "Although I hope you can stay with me, I also respect the choices everyone makes."

"Everyone should have their own dreams. When you are young, you should pursue your dreams."

"Have you forgotten the name of my studio?"

"Dreamworks!"

"If my boss is unwilling to let his employees pursue their dreams, then what kind of dream factory is it?"

Qi Dongqiu looked at Tang Bao and smiled: "Isn't the place where I can realize my dream the most?"

Tang Bao was stunned, oh, yes.

Qi Dongqiu wants to become a star, and it happens that his studio will definitely not lack in future resources.

No wonder Qi Dongqiu was willing to follow Tang Bao from the beginning.

Did Qi Dongqiu already have such an idea in mind at that time?

But anyway, it's a good thing.

Tang Bao said to Qi Dongqiu: "Then you, are you going to stay in the studio?"

Qi Dongqiu gave Tang Bao what do you think.

Tang Bao felt a little embarrassed.

The reason Tang Bao wanted to keep Qi Dongqiu was because he lacked a capable assistant around him.

But Qi Dongqiu wanted to be an actor.

There is a great conflict between the two.

Tang Bao didn't know how to balance it.

Qi Dongqiu has always been a very smart girl.

She instantly saw Tang Bao's hesitation and worry, and after thinking about herself, she also understood where Tang Bao was struggling.

Qi Dongqiu immediately felt that her chance had come, so she said to Tang Bao, "I'm only a sophomore this year. I'm two years away from graduation."

"I know you've been trying to get an assistant, and I can continue to be your assistant. But in a year's time, you're going to have to put me in a movie you're making."

"If you agree, I will continue to stay by your side."

Tang Bao heard Qi Dongqiu's proposal and thought it was feasible, Qi Dongqiu knew how to measure it.

I didn't mention being the heroine of the movie as soon as I came up.

Instead, it is ambiguous to say that he participated in the movie.

Tang Bao felt that he could agree.

Movies definitely have a lot in the future.

It is not difficult to arrange a role.

It depends on whether Qi Dongqiu can finally seize the opportunity.

Tang Bao said to Qi Dongqiu, "Okay, I promise you."

"After one year, there will definitely be a play for you as a reward for your hard work."

"Then, there is the issue of salary. Although you are still a student at school, the current workload is far beyond the scope."

"How about it, like Zuo Mo and Ji Yuxing in my studio, one hundred thousand a year. The bonus is calculated separately. What do you think?"

Qi Dongqiu nodded to express that he had no objection.

What she wants most is the opportunity to star in film and television productions.

10 yuan is not that important.

After Qi Dongqiu was settled, Tang Bao was very happy.

This means that he can continue to enjoy Qi Dongqiu's services for at least one year.

If you want to be a studio, you must continue to rent a house.

Tang Bao thinks that the Modu Central Building is very good.

The previous studio definitely cannot be used anymore.

Because this is the "Maximum" movie project.

And the area is too small.

Tang Bao plans to rent out the whole floor.

The area is about 4000 square meters.

Tang Bao has already consulted, and the quotation per square meter here can give Tang Bao 6 yuan per square meter per day.

Of course, if it is a long-term rental, there will definitely be discounts.

The property also needs high-quality customers like Tang Bao.

Calculated in this way, the annual rent will be 876 million.

Sure enough, it is the central area, and the annual rent alone costs tens of millions.

But Tang Bao thought it was a good place, with high-quality service and close to where he lived.

Very suitable.

Tang Bao is willing to spend the money.

This is also the card of the future studio.

Tang Bao even wanted to rent a few villas in the adjacent campus to use as staff dormitories.

But after thinking about it, forget it.

There is too little money on hand.

The property is very face-saving.After directly signing a three-year contract with Tang Bao, the rent was also reduced a lot.

First of all, water and electricity are free, and the garage of the property can also be parked normally without charging additional funds.

The rent is paid once a year, 850 million in the first year, 780 million in the second year, and 700 million in the third year.

It can be said that Tang Bao was given a very big discount.

Although you won’t be able to enjoy it until two years later.

After the establishment of the studio, Tang Bao moved his working place downstairs to the new office location.

After all, the place is bigger and more spacious.

There is no reason not to work here and be crammed into a small room.

Tang Bao now has a lot of people under his command.

Including Xin Shuang, there are more than 20 full-time employees in Eloquence.

Tang Bao intends to sign them all to the studio before the "Extreme Thief" project is completed.

They all fought with Tang Bao, so they must be given priority.

For a new place, we must arrange and get some new equipment.

Millions of dollars have been spent, so I don't care about this little bit.

After the arrangement was completed, the available funds in Tang Bao's hands were reduced to 2530 million.

There is very little money on hand.

Tang Bao originally wanted to build the prototype of the video website first.

It doesn't look like it's working now either.

Tang Bao felt that it would be better if he could borrow a sum of money from the bank.

So, he picked up his cell phone and called Manager Guo.

Manager Guo saw that it was Tang Bao's call again, so he took his mobile phone: "What's the matter Tang Bao, the money should have been in your account."

Tang Bao smiled: "Of course, of course, there must be no problem with your work efficiency."

"I'm calling you this time, mainly to ask you if I can borrow another amount from the bank."

Manager Guo was sweating profusely, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Director Tang, you just took 7000 million from the bank last time? Is this all spent?"

Tang Bao said embarrassingly: "Although it has not been spent yet, it is almost used up, so I want a new sum of funds to supplement."

Manager Guo wondered: "Mr. Tang, it's not that I won't help you, it's just that you should understand the rules of the bank. Although you have a local account, the conditions are excellent in all aspects, but if you don't have real assets as collateral, you can't Maybe borrow a second loan when you have just borrowed one."

What Manager Guo meant was very clear.

That is, banks can borrow money, but only if they have assets as collateral.

Tang Bao now rents his house.

There is not even a car, so what is the mortgage.

Tang Bao is not a stupid person, he didn't bother him after he knew what Manager Guo meant.

He is just an employee of a bank and really does not have such great rights.

The 7000 million is estimated to be lent to me by the bank because of my current reputation.

Since there is no new funds, the video website project can only be let go in a short time.

The Chinese New Year is earlier this year, and the Chinese New Year will be in January.

After Tang Bao and Xin Shuang had a phone call, they canceled their next trip to America.

Xin Shuang moved very quickly.

Except for special scenarios.

We have already shot a lot of scenes in the city.

In less than a week, the crew will return to China.

At this time, it doesn't matter whether Tang Bao goes or not.

As for the remaining scenes, we have to wait until the Chinese New Year is over to watch.

In Tang Bao's plan, it was the first scene after the New Year's Eve started.

Just prepare for the scene on the snow-capped mountains.

The next filming of "The Thief" will become increasingly difficult.

Scenes are also becoming more and more important.

It is estimated that this summer, Tang Bao will be able to make this movie and meet the audience on the big screen.

It is mainly special scenes such as huge waves, which are hard to come by.

So the time spent waiting may be more.

After Xin Shuang and the others came back, Tang Bao also wanted to talk to them about the studio.

The formalities for the new studio have been fully completed.
