Chapter 218: Tour 1st stop-Wald Pictures
Wald Pictures.
When Zhuke arrived here, he was still full of ostentation.
front and back, there are as many as 11 vehicles alone;
There are a total of 12 security personnel. They are equipped with live ammunition and are fully equipped. In the trunk of the main car, there is even a single-soldier bazooka. Well, for this big killer, Zhu Ke did not run less;
In addition to the security personnel, Zhu Ke's personal lawyer team, accounting team, including the assistant team of the parent company Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group, are also accompanied by a large number of people, which adds up to 18 people.
"My God! Where did this team come from?" A new employee couldn't help but blurt out.
This scene is pretty good!
To be precise, even in the Los Angeles area where there are many rich people, such a large-scale team can be seen at all times.
"Uh? This is Mr. Wald's team?!"
There are also old employees who recognize the logo of the team. After all, you have to know more about Zhuke's job than others.
The convoy stopped.
12 security personnel with guns and live ammunition got out of the car first and were alert to the surrounding environment.
After all, Zucker’s annual security expenditure of 3 million US dollars is not for nothing.
Then everyone from the lawyer team, accounting team, and assistant team got off the bus. After getting out of the car, the chief assistant Alexander personally opened the door for Zhu Ke.
"Chairman!"
"Mr. Wald!"
The staff outside the Wald Films Building immediately welcomed Zhu Ke's arrival.
At the same time, the news of Zhu Ke's arrival was immediately fed back to many executives of Wald Pictures.
President Bill Sr., Vice President Kevin Fitch, production department, distribution department, external relations department, news department, legal department...Many executives immediately put down their work and came to meet Zhu Ke.
"boss!"
Everyone called together.
Zhuke waved his big hand: "Everyone, I'm sorry to bother you. Today is my day to inspect and patrol the subsidiaries of the company. Do whatever you should do, just as if we don't exist."
Everyone nodded and said yes, but they were slanderous in their hearts.
You come in such a battle, how could we not be there?
The boss came to inspect and inspect, but you do not exist as your own boss. Do you want to do it?
Of course, everyone can only slander in their hearts, but no one dared to say it.
"Lawyer Zhang Wei, please lead a team of lawyers to work with the legal department of Wald Pictures to verify all recent legal contracts."
"Sister Martha, you are also from Wald Pictures. You must be familiar with this finance, so I will leave this to you."
Contracts, finances, and personnel powers.
Zhuke only needs to grasp these three points, and he can control the administrative power of any subsidiary in a noisy manner.
There should be no such phenomenon that the subsidiary is separated from the parent company!
Many people are busy.
Zhu Ke, on the other hand, was drinking tea on the sidelines. By the way, listen to the work report of Old Bill and Kevin Fitch.
"Let's talk about the recent releases of a few movies by the company." Zhu Ke took a sip of tea.
"Yes, boss!"
Kevin Fitch said unwillingly: "Boss, since the second half of June this year, we have undertaken and released a total of 6 films, 5 of which are films by external independent filmmakers. Since the release, the North American box office has accumulatively 4,500. Ten thousand U.S. dollars, excluding the cost of various publicity and distribution expenses, a profit of 620 U.S. dollars."
"As a company's own development project, "Fragments of Memory" has achieved a North American box office of 42 million U.S. dollars, and the profit data is still being calculated.
After finishing talking, Kevin Fitch showed Zhuke the detailed data after finishing.
"That would be great!"
After reading the report, Zhuke smiled and said, "Look, as long as you work hard, you will definitely be able to achieve results. Don't be afraid of losing money, and be brave enough."
Kevin Fitch repeatedly said yes.
Of course he understands the meaning and the meaning of Zhuke's words.
You should know that in the first half of 1998, the entire Wald Pictures only released two movies. For this reason, Zhu Ke was very popular, which can be said to be furious.
The most direct manifestation is the abolition of 3 executives;
Kevin Fitch’s own position as acting president of Wald Pictures was even removed. This is why, Zhu Ke asked the old Bill to take the post of president.
In the first half of the year, Wald Pictures executives, in pursuit of profit ratio and option rewards for the coming year, became concerned about gains and losses one by one. They were cautious and brought the company's development to a halt.
You said, can Zhuke not be hot?
However, this phenomenon has been changed immediately after the old Bill takes over the power of Wald Pictures.
In less than half a year, with more than a month left, 6 movies have been released.
This is an improvement!
...
After that, Zhu Ke had a good conversation with Old Bill on the issue of overseas distribution channels.
The establishment of distribution channels in overseas markets is definitely not an overnight event.
Otherwise, Lionsgate will not work hard for more than ten years!
"Don't be rushed or impatient, fight steadily."
"After all, Wald Pictures was established not long ago. Even though we are well-known in the United States, we are still weak overseas. We lay a solid foundation and use "300", "Spiderman", and "Harry Potter". Large-scale production of films to open up overseas markets."
"The combination of Gou Dao and King Dao is our only way."
Zhu Ke’s insights have learned lessons from many people.
Looking at the development of Hollywood since the 1990s, I don’t know how many film companies want to establish overseas distribution channels, but their methods are too simple and rude, which aroused crazy resistance from local forces, and they all fell into the sand. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
DreamWorks’ eagerness for success is a **** lesson!
"The same sentence, in order to prepare for the establishment of overseas distribution channels, I can give you enough time, three years will not work, but five years; five years will not work, but ten years!"
Zhuke looked at Old Bill and others, and said in a deep voice: "First of all, we have to be calm."
Old Bill, Kevin Fitch and others are all smart and talented, but Zhuke is still afraid that they are eager for success.
The vaccination cannot be stopped!
...
at dusk.
When Zhu Ke and his party were about to leave, they saw a Chinese director with glasses who came to seek cooperation in the lobby on the first floor of the Wald Building.
—James Huang (Huang Yiyu).
"I am a director."
"Yes, although I am just a TV drama director and I have not directed any theater movies, but I have the confidence to make an excellent theater movie. This is my adaptation of the script "Death is Coming"."
"It is a horror movie with Eastern thinking and American foreign nuclear. In terms of horror themes, your company has successively launched many popular movies such as "Fatal Bend", "Human Removal Project", and "Sixth Sense of Supernatural". Movies. Therefore, I think your company is my best choice for cooperation."
The second update of "" is sent, asking for daily support.
