The last one is the main organization of the company, the production department, which is also in charge of Zhang Dongcheng, and Jack and others belong to this department.
Because Burton is about to join in, the company has to add another department, the post-production department! Responsible for the post-production of the film, such as special effects, dubbing and the like.
Small but complete! Although there are few departments, it is enough to ensure the normal operation of the company.
"Everyone, I think our company will add a new department soon!" Zhang Dongcheng said excitedly. In his previous life planning, the special effects company was the most important part. Because he knows very well how much attention will be paid to special effects in future movies!
At present, because Burton's manpower is too small, the special effects department can only exist as a department of Dongcheng Films. When it gradually develops, Zhang Dongcheng will split it off as a separate company sooner or later to compete with the four major special effects companies. . To develop Dongcheng Pictures into a large film and television group.
Of course, due to the implementation of the anti-monopoly law in the 1950s, film companies cannot own their own theaters. But this is not without flexibility. For example, Zhang Dongcheng can let Adaman purchase alone, not in the name of Dongcheng Films at all.
In this way, the constraints of anti-monopoly laws can be bypassed. A lot of movie companies do this. For example, under the umbrella of Universal Pictures, it also controls obscure theaters that no one knows.
"A new department?" After becoming the manager of the sales department, Adaman looked a lot more serious. Of course, this is just what it looks like. Zhang Dongcheng knew very well that this guy's character hadn't changed at all.
"Yes!" Zhang Dongcheng nodded vigorously, and said, "Mr. Burton from Industrial Light & Magic will join our Dongcheng Pictures in the near future and become the manager of the post-production department that will be established soon!"
"What?!"
In the conference room where there were only three or two cats, big and small, there was a burst of exclamation.
To put it bluntly, the market value of Industrial Light and Magic alone is much higher than the market value of their entire Dongcheng Pictures. Burton, the mainstay of Industrial Light & Magic, has absolutely no reason to abandon his current stable position to join such a newly established company with an uncertain future!
"That...Smith, the Burton you mentioned just now. Couldn't it be John Andrew Burton Jr.?" Adaman looked at Zhang Dongcheng suspiciously, and hesitantly said.
"Yes!" Zhang Dongcheng nodded affirmatively, and said, "That's him, Mr. John Andrew Burton Jr. who did special effects for the mummy before! He will bring a group of special effects talents to join our company soon! And Serve as post-production manager!"
After getting Zhang Dongcheng's confirmation again, everyone in the meeting room burst into cheers. For Dongcheng Pictures, a newly established company, Burton's joining is no less than a good start surprise.
After watching everyone discuss with a smile for a while, Zhang Dongcheng knocked on the table and said: "Apart from this matter, the next thing we will discuss is the production of the company's first film! Anyone who has any ideas can come Say it!"
After another round of market-like discussions, there were no results. In this group of people, there are basically few serious filmmakers, so they can't explain the reason for the discussion of the new movie.
For example, Andy used to be a waiter in a pizzeria, and he joined this business out of his love for movies; Jason was a diver; Brandon was caught by Zhang Dongcheng when he was about to fall off the car. To pull into the car again.
Although Jack has worked in the film industry for a long time, he is only a photographer. Can't say anything about the choice of films either.
Zhang Dongcheng rubbed his forehead, feeling a little dizzy!
You must be careful when choosing a new movie! Because this film will try the method of film and television investment funds to raise funds for the first time.
For Zhang Dongcheng, he can only succeed, not fail!
In Zhang Dongcheng's heart, this movie must be classic enough, and it cannot be a pure popcorn movie like The Mummy. There must be a certain depth of thought. That is to say, there must be artistry and a balance between artistry and commerciality.
Box office must be; and must be high enough! Word of mouth also needs to be available, and it also needs to be controversial!
The restrictions of various conditions undoubtedly increased the difficulty of movie selection.
People in the conference room discussed for a long time, but they didn't come up with any constructive opinions.
In desperation, Zhang Dongcheng had to terminate the meeting. Let everyone think about the subject of the next movie after they go back. Although this matter is important, since the company has just started, there is still time to think about it.
In addition, he also needs to contact Gibran again to see how the short-term film investment fund he organized for himself is going.
After a short meeting. Zhang Dongcheng and others are preparing for the holiday.
Yes, you're not mistaken!
Dongcheng Film Company has just been established, but the first thing to do is to have a holiday, because the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Of course, this year is not the Chinese Lunar New Year, but New Year's Day.
However, most of the vacationers are the few cleaners who have just been recruited. As for Zhang Dongcheng, Adaman and others, this New Year is probably going to be busy.
The morning of December 28th. Burton finally joined Zhang Dongcheng's Dongcheng Film Company with a large number of his men.
Speaking of which, his actions were quite fast. On the 25th, he decided to join Dongcheng Films, and on the 28th, he even brought the equipment along with him.
There were seventeen people who followed Burton to join Dongcheng Pictures. Adding Burton's words, there were eighteen in total.
These people are talents who have worked with Burton for many years in special effects. Basically, after they come here, they don’t need training or anything, and they can work at any time with equipment. This also relieved Zhang Dongcheng a lot.
The arrival of such a group of people immediately made the office of Dongcheng Pictures much more lively.
It is also thanks to Zhang Dongcheng that when he established the company, he was ready to make the company bigger. He rented an entire floor of this office building in advance, with an area of about 1,400 square meters.
After several hours of busy work, after making a special space for Burton's post-production department, Zhang Dongcheng finally saw the equipment brought by Burton. Most of these devices are not available in the market. Basically, Burton and others were ingenious in order to produce some unique picture effects, and made them by themselves.
Only such equipment is the most important thing for a special effects company.
Of course, what Burton brought alone cannot satisfy the operation of the post-production department. Zhang Dongcheng allocated nearly 10 million U.S. dollars to Burton's post-production department through the Finance Department to purchase those necessary and market-ready products. Equipment available online.
Only then did the preparations for the post-production department be basically completed. However, there are still too few personnel in the post-production department at the moment, and Burton, the general manager, is only 18 people. It is bound to be recruited in the future.
After going through the entry procedures for Burton and the people he brought, Zhang Dongcheng fulfilled the original conditions with Burton and gave him 10% of the shares of Dongcheng Films.
As a result, although Zhang Dongcheng's shares are only more than 50% to less than 60%, he still has absolute control over the company.
In the future, Zhang Dongcheng will still sell his own shares, but he will keep it at a minimum of 51% to ensure his absolute control over the company.
These extra shares will inevitably be distributed when recruiting talents in the future. Zhang Dongcheng was also prepared for this.
After the establishment of the later department, Zhang Dongcheng immediately led the company to find a Huaxia restaurant to celebrate.
On the morning of December 29th, Carl from Universal Pictures finally credited Zhang Dongcheng's share of the overseas box office. Including the share of the previous box office in the United States, Zhang Dongcheng has made a total of about 90 million US dollars in profits from the movie The Mummy.
The funds that seemed a little tight due to the establishment of the company, after receiving this large sum of US dollars, suddenly seemed a lot more comfortable.
Having money, the question is, what to shoot next?
He has already chosen several movies in his mind, but he has been hesitant to make up his mind. In his opinion, these few movies are extremely perfect, realistic and promising.
Should we make the film of the sword and fire, the roar of the tiger, or the trilogy of the hand covering the sky, the gunfire intersecting with the fist, and the coldness of everything?
Zhang Dongcheng has been unable to make up his mind.
December 30th, Lunar November 20th. Zhang Dongcheng came to Memys Law Firm again to look for Gibran.
Just arrived at the reception downstairs, the blonde girl I met before immediately greeted me. She seemed to remember Zhang Dongcheng, and said with a smile, "Hi sir, are you Mr. Smith Zhang who made an appointment with lawyer Gibran?"
"Yes!" Zhang Dongcheng nodded. Jokingly said: "I made an appointment with Mr. Gibran at nine o'clock in the morning, I think I should be on time, right?"
The time displayed on the clock hanging on the wall of the lobby of the Memys Law Firm building is 8:55.
The blond girl maintained a formulaic smile and said, "Yes, sir, your concept of time is very accurate. Lawyer Gibran is waiting for you in his office!"
"Well! Goodbye!" Zhang Dongcheng took out a hundred-dollar bill, handed it to the blonde girl as a tip, and walked quickly towards the elevator.
Outside office 512 on the fifth floor. Zhang Dongcheng raised his arm and knocked on the door.
Boom boom boom...
Through the door, Zhang Dongcheng heard Gibran's voice. "Mr. Smith, please come in. My door is unlocked!"
Hearing this, Zhang Dongcheng pushed open the door and walked in. In the office, Gibran was sitting in front of the computer, busy with something. Even Zhang Dongcheng didn't raise his head when he came in.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Guess what the protagonist’s next movie will be, the answer will be revealed at eleven o’clock in the evening~~~
