Chapter 261 Status Quo of Art Company

Chatted with Wu Xinping for a while, checked that it was almost time, and came to my office with Wu Xinping.

The office layout is not bad, very elegant.

After all, Wu Xinping is a famous artist, so there is no problem with his aesthetic ability, and the well-decorated room is naturally not bad.

When Zhang Junping and Wu Xinping entered the office, the leadership team of the art company had already arrived.

Nowadays, there are many managers in the art company, and there are still a few people who are unfamiliar.

Zhang Junping humbly gave way, let Wu Xinping take the main seat, and took the first place next to him.

"During this time, I have been helping the city government and receiving the Prussian delegation.

Things at home, thank you everyone.

I just saw a few new faces.

Shall I introduce myself first? "Zhang Junping said with a smile.

"Hi, Manager Zhang! I'm the editor-in-chief of BJ's Painting Shop Magazine, and my name is Lu Zhaode."

"Hello, Manager Zhang! I'm the deputy editor-in-chief of BJ's Painting Shop Magazine, and my name is Xue Xiaohong."

"Hello, Manager Zhang! I am the editor-in-chief of "China Impression" magazine, and my name is Lou Xinying."

"Hello, Manager Zhang, I am the deputy editor-in-chief of "China Impression" magazine, and my name is Shi Zhengjie."

Four or four new faces stood up one after another and introduced themselves.

Cao Xiangqian is really generous. Originally, Zhang Junping wanted to set up a team and run two magazines.

As a result, they directly assigned two teams.

Moreover, the two teams are still a mix of men and women.

"I, you should all know, or have heard of, so I won't introduce myself.

Mr. Lu and Mr. Lou, let's start with you!Tell me about your preparations during this time. "Zhang Junping looked at the four chief and deputy editor-in-chiefs and said with a smile.

"Manager, we just came here, Director Cao only told us the name of the magazine, but didn't tell us the specific purpose or ideas.

So, we've just been in touch with a couple of editors through previous relationships during this time. After Lu Zhaode and Lou Xinying looked at each other, Lu Zhaode said.

"I see! During this time, I have something to do, so I didn't have time to communicate with you, so I don't blame you!

The purpose of the journal is very simple, that is to cooperate with art companies to promote artworks and artists.

For the two magazines, I don't require you to be profitable, and I will give you financial support every year based on the circulation.

I only have one request. These two magazines are not only popular in China, but also sell well overseas. They must be published in traditional Chinese, English, French, and Japanese.

Our magazines are screen-printed with the best coated paper, even if they are the most exquisite magazines in the world.

We are all engaged in art, and the magazine we publish is not just a magazine, but to leave readers with a sensory experience like appreciating a piece of art.

Therefore, you have to find the best and top-notch photographers in the country and use the top-notch photographic equipment.

Mr. Lu, Mr. Lou, Mr. Xue, Mr. Shi, can you understand me when I say this?

Now you know what to do next? "

"Understood!" The four nodded in unison.

If they still don't understand this, then they don't have to do it.

"Secretary Liu is here, you can ask Secretary Liu for advice, publish some celebrity biographies, or invite famous domestic artists to write articles for our magazine.

There are so many works of art in the Palace Museum, in my opinion, every piece of art is a beautiful story.

All you have to do is tell these artworks and the stories behind them well.

Only in this way can readers be attracted.

As for how to make the stories behind the artworks more exciting, that's up to you to edit.

If you want money, I will give it to you!Important people, I will give you authority, what kind of person you want to find, you can figure out a way by yourself.

If you still can't do it well, it's a capacity problem. Zhang Junping had a faint smile on his face, but his aura was fully open, making everyone in the conference room feel out of breath.

"Understood! Thank you manager for your support, we will work hard to run the magazine well!" The four stood up and solemnly promised.

"I don't listen to your promises, I'll give you two months, after two months I want to see the sample issue!

Lao Lu, rearrange it for them later, one magazine office and one warehouse, the bigger the space, the easier it will be for them to use it. "

"Understood the manager!" Lu Guozhong quickly agreed.

"Okay! About the magazine, that's all for now.

Next, Minister Chen, please tell us about the situation of your business development department during this period! "

"Yes, manager! During this period of time, we have been buying calligraphy and painting in the painting shop.

A total of 130 and eight works of famous artists were collected.

There are 860 nine works of well-known young artists.

In addition, we also contacted famous artists from other places through the relationship of Xinhua Bookstore, and collected a total of 360 works by famous artists from other places.

There are more than 500 works by well-known young artists. "

"Yes, Not Bad!

It is very good that you can proactively contact and acquire the works of foreign artists.

Our eyes cannot be limited to BJ.

BJ said it was small. As the capital, a big city with a population of several million is really not small.

But in terms of size, it is only a city with a population of several million, and it is only a drop in the ocean when placed among a population of one hundred million.

Therefore, our sight must not be limited to BJ.

Minister Chen deserves praise for this. Zhang Junping affirmed with a smile.

Then, Zhang Junping called the names one by one and asked about the situation of each department.

In fact, he only needs to find someone to find out about these situations.

However, Zhang Junping still asked the heads of various departments to report in person.

It is to put pressure on them and let them know the direction they value.

After the meeting, Zhang Junping left Chen Lijun alone.

"Sister Chen, the focus of your work will change in the next step.

You can no longer focus on how many paintings you collect. Zhang Junping made a cup of tea for Chen Lijun and said with a smile.

"Manager, tell me what to do!"

"The next step is to focus on the signings.

Find out those young artists with potential, sign contracts with them, and focus on training.

As long as you sign a contract with our art company, you can become our contracted artist.

You can enjoy certain benefits.

For example, as long as you only need to submit one piece of work every month, you can get a full attendance subsidy, and the subsidy is based on the salary of a department-level cadre.

As the status of contracted artists increases, our attendance allowance will continue to increase.

A rating can be given according to the market's recognition of the signed artists.

For example, level one, level two, level three, level four, five, six, seven, eight or nine.

Level [-] is the lowest and Level [-] is the highest.

The first-level full attendance subsidy refers to the department level, the second-level deputy division, the third-level division, and so on.

In addition, we no longer implement the buyout policy for the works of all signed artists.

But divided into!

Fifty-five split accounts, a piece of work sold for 1 yuan, we will raise [-], and the artist will get [-].

Be sure to make it clear to them that for the 5000 yuan, we have to bear the expenses of publicity, operation, management, etc. for the artists and works.

The cost of this piece accounts for about 30.00%.

In fact, after a work is sold, we can only get about 15.00% of the profit.

The author alone gets 50.00%.

Of course, this 50.00% is subject to tax!

Taxes are paid in accordance with the laws of the country where the transaction takes place.

The tax is paid by our company. After the tax is deducted, the remaining money will be sent to the account designated by the author. "After Zhang Junping finished speaking, he stopped and waited for Chen Lijun to digest what he said.

After taking a sip of tea, he continued: "What I said just now are the rights of signed artists.

To enjoy rights comes obligations.

For all signed artists, their works are not allowed to be sold in any channels other than the art company.

Otherwise, compensation will be made according to ten times the value of the works sold.

Of course, as an artist, it doesn't matter if you give a small amount or give each other.

However, once there is evidence that the contracted artist is selling in the name of gift or mutual gift, then compensation is also required to be ten times the valuation of the work.

And ban the artist. "

"Manager, ten times the compensation, banning, isn't it too harsh?"

"Is it severe? Then you say that the rights in front are not attractive?"

"It's tempting, it must be tempting! I want my children to learn calligraphy and painting, and become artists!"

"Remember, there is no good thing in this world that has rights but no obligations.

Enjoy the rights, you must pay the obligations.

There is never a shortage of artistic youths in this world who want to become famous. There are so many art colleges in the country. There are tens of thousands of freshmen who are admitted to art colleges in a year. Even if only one tenth of them have Cultivate value, that is thousands of people.

And among these thousand potential art students, if they grow up naturally, less than one will eventually become famous.

The path of an artist is so cruel!

And by signing a contract with us, we can help them become famous and become that one-ten-thousandth existence.

So, don't worry about no one willing to sign with us.

Although the liability for breach of contract is set more severely. Zhang Junping said with a faint smile.

"Understood, manager!" Chen Lijun nodded and said.

She is very clear about what Zhang Junping said, because BJ Art Shop is not far from CAFA, and a large number of CAFA students come to the art shop to sell paintings every year.

In her opinion, some paintings are really good. Unfortunately, because they are not well-known, art shops can only buy them at the lowest price.

In the past 20 years, Chen Lijun has received thousands of students from CAFA or the School of Arts and Crafts. The paintings are much better, but ten or 20 years later, I can still hear their names, except for those who have worshiped famous teachers One of the lucky ones, the other one didn't.

Reality will always be crueler than what is said or written on paper.

"Go back, sort out what I just said, form a document, and give it to me."

"Manager, I graduated from junior high school. You asked me to say it's okay, but you asked me to write it. I really can't do it!" Chen Lijun said with a bitter face when she heard that she had to organize it into a file.

"You are the leader, you don't know how to tidy up, you can leave it to your subordinates to tidy up! You always have people who graduated from high school under you, right?

With my ideas, everyone brainstorms, if it still can't be written?

Then I really have to think about the personnel adjustment of your career development department. "Zhang Junping said with a faint smile.

Zhang Junping's seemingly casual words surprised Chen Lijun. The young man in front of her was like a mountain towering in front of her, which made her feel extremely depressed.

After seeing off Chen Lijun, Zhang Junping called Song Heping, chief of the finance department.

"Sister Song, how do you feel? Can you still get used to it?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.

"Is there anything I can't adapt to, the finance department is all about those things.
