Movie tycoon

Chapter 711 Finalizing "Chain Saw" (Second Update)

After analyzing the record market, Chen Xiaotang turned his attention to the Fox Film Company.

As one of the largest film companies in North America owned by Moying Entertainment, after Fox was acquired by Moying Entertainment, Chen Xiaotang used the strategy of self-cultivation to slowly restore his vitality.After all, the old Fox had a poor interior and backward operations, especially for the films it shot.

For this reason, Chen Xiaotang formulated the "Small-budget Film Project" and urged Fox to make low-budget and low-investment movies, such as "Terror Cruise", "Sniper Phone Booth", and "Buried Alive".

It can be said that the investment in these films was not large, but after the filming was completed, they were unanimously recognized by the majority of Fox fans because of the wonderful stories.Those guys who originally ridiculed Fox had no confidence and could only make small troubles shut their mouths.

Not to mention anything else, Chen Xiaotang's outstanding and far-sighted vision alone is enough to convince everyone at Fox, and as Chen Xiaotang himself rises and becomes more and more popular in Hollywood, Fox has begun to give up on him.

Therefore, when Chen Xiaotang looked at them, the Fox executives headed by Afro Jim began to make work reports one by one.Do it very carefully and carefully.Some people even took out the data they found privately to prove how smooth Fox's current development is.

After listening to the work report of this group of people, Chen Xiaotang stroked his chin and said nothing, just in a daze.

His actions made everyone in Fox nervous for no reason.

Afro Jim couldn't help asking: "President, is there a problem?"

In private, the two have a close relationship, and they can be called whatever they want, but on the table, Afro Jim still politely calls Chen Xiaotang "President".

Chen Xiaotang came back to his senses, "Oh, it's nothing, I was just thinking about something."

After finishing speaking, Chen Xiaotang glanced at the crowd and said, "Fox has not yet regained its vitality, so the low-cost investment route must continue. I wonder if you have any good scripts?"

In the past, in order to guide everyone and cheer Fox up and down, scripts like "Horror Cruise" were created by Chen Xiaotang, but now, Chen Xiaotang intends to let the following people do it. If you don't, even if you exhaust yourself to death, it won't help Fox much.

Seeing that the boss had spoken, everyone in Fox looked at me and looked at you, suddenly, a man with glasses with a sickly pale face said, "I do have a script, but..." He hesitated to speak.

"However, you can just say it, and we will figure it out together." It was rare for someone to stand up, Chen Xiaotang encouraged.

The man with glasses raised his eyes, as if Chen Xiaotang's words gave him confidence.

"My story is about a chainsaw murderer..."

Chainsaw murderer?Wouldn't it be Texas Chainsaw Maniac?Chen Xiaotang thought.

But right away he knew he had guessed wrong.

"This chainsaw murderer is used to locking a group of people together, and then involving various cruel agencies to achieve his so-called justice..." Then the man in glasses talked more and more quickly, and Chen Xiaotang listened more and more more surprised.

At the end, Chen Xiaotang was about to groan, no way, God, why did "Saw" come out early? !
Yes, the outline of the story told by the man with glasses in front of him is exactly the first part of the "Saw" series in his previous life. Of course, the content in it is more or less different, but the general idea is exactly the same as the "Saw" series.

This made Chen Xiaotang have to think, did this guy also come through time travel? !
When Chen Xiaotang thought about it, there was something wrong with the way he looked at the other party.

The man in glasses was talking up and down, waving his arms and legs when he was excited, completely forgetting that he was giving a report at a meeting. It wasn't until he had finished speaking that he realized that the surroundings were quiet enough, and then he saw his superstar boss using a A very strange look looked at himself.

This kind of gaze is very familiar to the man with glasses. It was the kind of gaze he used when he peeked at the bumpy bikini girl on the beach back then.

However, this kind of "sexy" gaze made it difficult for him to adapt. It would be fine if the other party was a beautiful woman, but the problem was that he was a man, and he was also his boss!

"Ahem, boss, what do you think?" the man with glasses had to break the silence.

Only then did Chen Xiaotang come back to his senses, "What's your name?"

"Ah?!" The man with glasses was taken aback, "My name is Joseph." The man with glasses replied.

"Joseph?" Chen Xiaotang searched all over his brain but couldn't figure out who this person was. Could it be that it was purely accidental.

"Why do you think of such a story?" Chen Xiaotang asked.

"Glasses man" Joseph shrugged, "I am a loyal fan of Texas Chainsaw, and I had a dream when I was sleeping, and then I came up with such a movie idea."

God's will, it's God's will!

Chen Xiaotang really wanted to laugh out loud.

"You are very good, really good!" Chen Xiaotang praised.

Joseph, the man with glasses, is confused. What does he mean? Is his movie very good, or his man is very good? !Subconsciously, he touched his butt, and everyone said his butt was quite upright...

Seemingly seeing what the other party was thinking, Chen Xiaotang laughed loudly and said, "I mean your script is very good, and it fits our company's future development requirements."

"See," Chen Xiaotang said here, ready to set an example, the great man said well, the power of an example is infinite, since there are no foreigners, we already have one. "Joseph's creativity coincides with our company's development prospects. What does this mean? It shows that he is dedicated to his work and the company! Look, he can write such a good script even in his dreams. He studies hard and learns his spirit of serving the company wholeheartedly!"

"So, from today, we will establish a model post for advanced individuals in the company, and select a star employee every week. As long as you work hard and worry about the company, everyone will have the opportunity to be a star! Zhou Yixing’s employees can enjoy high bonuses in addition to salary, as well as welfare rewards, and at the end of the year, they can even participate in the selection of the best employee..."

Chen Xiaotang directly brought out the effective reward and evaluation system from the inland factory in his previous life, which made these foreign devils stunned.Where have they seen this kind of thing before? It sounds quite strange now, and what is even more tempting is... There are bonuses...

"What's your opinion on this?" Chen Xiaotang asked after talking about his new reward system.

"Boss, I have a question," at which point a fat black man stood up.

Well, standing up is more like a mountain.

"Since we have developed such an excellent reward system, can we also formulate a corresponding punishment system?" The fat black man asked bluntly.

so good!
Chen Xiaotang was so happy that he really wanted to slap his hands.

One must know that Chen Xiaotang didn't think of the punishment system when he proposed the reward system.But as we all know, the laws in the United States are very sound, especially the working class has a powerful trade union. If you are slightly punished or fined, you will be accused of going to the union.The U.S. judiciary often judges companies to pay compensation in order to win the hearts of the people and become a judiciary that "truly serves the American people."Of course, there are more things like colluding with big capitalists, and guilds are often manipulated by capitalists.But the problem is that Chen Xiaotang is not a "capitalist" now, and he has nothing to do with the US judiciary.Is it possible for you to let these institutions speak for themselves? !
So Chen Xiaotang tactfully kept his mouth shut and didn't talk about punishment, only about rewards.

And he very much hoped that someone would take the initiative to raise this issue, so that he could follow the trend...to avoid being labeled as a "blood-sucking capitalist".

Think what comes.

This fat black man is so cute.

Others don't see it that way. You know, the boss didn't even talk about punishment, so why are you interfering? Besides, if one day the "punishment system" falls on you, what should you do?Didn't you court death yourself!
So now many upper echelons despise this fat black man.

The fat black man didn't care, he shook his beard twice like a mole, and then said: "Boss, it is undeniable that your reward system is good, but it is not enough to just increase the enthusiasm of employees. It needs to be targeted at some lazy people. Only with some punishment can the company system be supplemented and perfected. After all, motivation is not enough, there must be cohesion.” Next, the fat black man began to talk about a series of reasons, from company development, company management, to The company's future prospect planning is well-reasoned.It can be said that these words are absolutely righteous and awe-inspiring, and it is impossible to refute them.

It wasn't until the fat black man finished speaking in one breath that Chen Xiaotang smiled and asked other people's opinions, "What do you think? What's his suggestion?"

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you.

Fatty Wang Jing was the first to raise his hand again, "Agree!"

God, I almost forgot that there is a fat man who is also with the boss!

Afro Jim: "This proposal is very good. If there is a reward, there will be a punishment. It's only fair!"

"Very fair, very democratic!" Someone immediately echoed.

……

Chen Xiaotang laughed, "In this case, this one is passed!" Chen Xiaotang was very happy, of course he didn't forget the fat black man in front of him, "What's your name?"

"My name is Andrew, boss. I'm in charge of logistics."

"Logistics work? Well, I think you are very insightful, and you are a bit inferior to doing logistics. How about this, I will transfer you to the distribution department. From now on, I will be in charge of film distribution work!"

One step to the sky!

Everyone knows the difference between logistics and distribution.

The logistics is almost Qingshui Yamen, and it is still not good to see.

As for the distribution department, it carries the lifeblood of the entire company's development.

The black fat man is happy, the reason why he boldly stood up is for this reason, now, the opportunity is finally earned for him!

Others are envious and jealous, regretting why they didn't stand up before.

Silly, silly, so many years of fooling around!
Chen Xiaotang didn't care about these things. After he promoted Andrew, the black fat man, he said to the former Joseph, "And you, from now on, you will be the chief editor of the screenwriting department. Good job, you will definitely be rewarded!"

"Others, I hope you all work hard. Just like what Andrew said before, rewards and punishments are the only way to gather motivation. We work together, whether Fox or Sony, we can all develop better!" Chen Xiaotang waved his hand, "Today The meeting is over!"

Paying equal attention to kindness and power, he directly arranged everyone in the two major companies under the Moying to be submissive.
