Chapter 1173 Can't be measured by money

Xu Baihui is still in the United States.

But good news has come back.

Marvel is willing to use financing to ease the pressure on the company's cash flow. These current Marvel executives have great ambitions and want to create a comic book series that is as successful as DC Comics. Although they have no money, they have been recovering the copyrights of the comics they sold in the past several years.

Because Xu Baihui is in the United States, Jieyu Media's domestic business must be handled by Xue Baoshan.

She has been in charge of variety shows and has not been involved in the film business much.

Zhou Buqi was worried that she would be bullied, so he went there in person.

It's the new movie "Crazy Racing" directed by Ning Hao. The movie has been filmed and edited. We need to invite some people in the industry to watch the movie and provide suggestions for revision.

This is the norm in the industry, and each movie has to go through many rounds of revisions before it is released.

Zhou Buqi personally came forward and called several important figures in China Film, Huayi, and Orange Sky, and contacted many well-known producers and screenwriters through them.

With such an arrangement, the scene became lively.

Jieyu Media has a lot of face, and director Ning Hao is also grateful.

Zhou Buqi will not be involved in how to modify the specific movie. After the internal screening, he shook hands with Ning Hao and said with a smile, "It can be seen that this is a very good movie like Guy Ritchie."

Ning Hao smiled, "It's ridiculous."

Zhou Buqi said: "Absurdity is also a kind of reality, a kind of dissolving and confronting reality."

Ning Hao took it for granted, "I was chatting with my friend a few days ago, and he told me a story. It said that there would be a rehearsal in the prison on the eve of the execution of the executioner. When the prisoner was taken to the execution ground for the rehearsal, there was no Sad, not crying bitterly, but laughing and joking, like playing a game."

Zhou Buqi nodded, "Well, a kind of self-deprecating confrontation, what can we do if we don't laugh and laugh? No one can face this coming moment directly."

Ning Hao said: "Life is inherently desolate, and all your tossing is actually a kind of confrontation."

Zhou Buqi felt that what he said was too reasonable.

The greatest confrontation is actually the confrontation with self.

For example, at today's internal screening, a young actor came. It stands to reason that this kind of person is not qualified to participate. This is the first internal screening, mainly to propose revisions in the professional field. Young actors do not have such professional ability.

However, she has a tough relationship.

Her aunt is Jiang Wenli.

Ms. Jiang wants to be a director and make a movie herself, and let her niece play an important role. At this time, I will walk around more and help out more. I hope I can get some help when I make movies by myself in the future.

When we met just now, Ms. Jiang was very enthusiastic and introduced her niece to Zhou Buqi, saying that she hoped that Mr. Zhou would take care of her, give her advice, and take care of her.

He almost didn't ask Boss Zhou to be more intimate with his niece.

The meaning is obvious.

Everyone present could see it.

How could Zhou Buqi be so blatant, do you want to have the demeanor of a big boss? After a battle between heaven and man in his heart, he still gritted his teeth and persisted, the upper body defeated the lower body. No business card was handed over, and no contact information was asked for.

Ms. Jiang and her husband both have a pivotal position in the film and television industry, but they are not as difficult to get out as grassroots like Zhang Yuqi and Jiang Bingjie.

After the screening, those professionals wanted to start a discussion. Zhou Buqi went to the upstairs office to drink tea with the people from Huayi and Chengtian, and talked about the investment in Hollywood platters.

Unfortunately, they are all struggling.

Although I heard that Jieyu Media has established contacts with Hollywood giants, I am very jealous, but under the economic crisis, they are all short of money. If you want to participate, you can't even participate.

Fortunately, they gave Boss Zhou a lot of face. He said that he needed help so he could speak up and conquer Hollywood. This is the collective honor of the domestic film and television industry.

"By the way, your hometown is from Chuncheng, right?" Wang Xiaojun suddenly thought of something and asked.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Yes, are you free to go and play?"

Wang Xiaojun said: "There is a movie being filmed in your hometown. It is a very good project, but it has been suspended due to a shortage of funds. You know, the economic crisis, investors can't pay anymore."

Zhou Buqi glanced at him, "Give me a trick?"

Wang Xiaojun laughed and said: "What trick? Lu Chuan's movie was about the Nanjing Massacre. If it had been in the past, I would have followed whatever I said. But now it's no longer possible. Huayi is also very difficult here, no more rich than you. "

Zhou Buqi raised his eyebrows, and immediately realized what kind of movie this was, "Nanjing!" Nanjing! "ah. This kind of movie, everything has to be made, and it cannot be measured by money.

If it is an anti-Japanese drama, he will not vote if it can make money. This kind of realistic subject matter must be shot even if it does not make money.

"Okay, please contact me."

"I'll let Xiao Lu come here!"

Wang Xiaojun was very happy.

Zhou Buqi waved his hand, "No need, he is the director, don't run around, so as not to affect the idea of ​​the play. I will go to him tomorrow morning."

...

The next day, Shen Xiangyang came back.

very critical.

Zhou Buqi postponed his return to the Northeast, and talked to him, "The vice president of STMicroelectronics, can you really get here?"

Shen Xiangyang said: "The graduate from the University of Science and Technology of China is a Chinese named Deng Wenhan."

"It's also difficult for Chinese people, right?"

"Always try. When doing scientific research, the most important thing is not the number of technical talents, but the ability to manage technical talents. A good management system can enable an 80-point technical team to create 100-point technical achievements; a With a poor management structure, an 80-point technical team may not even be able to produce 10-point technical results."

Zhou Buqi was a little surprised, "Don't you understand?"

Shen Xiangyang was a little helpless, "It's not one direction. I can still do technical management in the Internet field. But making chips is another system."

The former is easier to manage.

KPIs can be designed based on the number of bugs modified, the number of lines of code written, and the project results given, and there is an assessment mechanism. With the mechanism, it is easy to lead the team.

Designing chips will not work.

Technical blockade, no reference standard.

After going back and forth for more than half a year, it may be overthrowing and overthrowing. In the process of making mistakes, trial and error, correcting mistakes and making mistakes again, in the end, nothing is left except a lot of error records.

If incentives are based on traditional KPI assessments, these are worthless tasks.

This is prone to accidents.

In the 1980s, technology R\u0026D companies were everywhere in China. At that time, the country was poor and white, and the scientific and technological achievements of the people were almost zero. If you developed anything, you could make a lot of money.

At that time, there were hundreds of technology companies in Zhongguancun.

But that era was too backward. Most people didn’t understand the market, business MBA, or the value of management. They thought that technology research and development was just a matter of finding a bunch of technical talents and working on projects together.

Fortunately, in the 1980s, foreign high-tech companies did not come in, and everyone could still grab land and make a lot of money. After drawing a circle in 1992, times have changed. Foreign technology giants have entered, and domestic R\u0026D companies have all died.

Great Wall transformation, Inspur transformation, Giant transformation, Lenovo transformation, Founder transformation, Tongfang transformation, ... ZTE has all begun to introduce PHS to play the market. If Huawei does not transform, if it is not for the decisive decision of the boss Ren, it will almost die.

Zhou Buqi immediately thought of something, his complexion changed slightly, "Take the Huawei model? Ask IBM for help to build a management system?"

This is terrible!

Huawei's early life was very prosperous. As a small company, management is very simple. But in the mid-1990s, when the enterprise had a certain scale, it discovered the complexity of the scientific research route in enterprise management. If this problem is not resolved, accidents will easily occur. Then, he began to study abroad. First I went to Germany, but failed, and then I went to the United States to find IBM for help.

That was a reform that dug its own grave from the inside out. In Boss Ren's own words, he is killing himself. After losing more than 3,000 employees and spending billions of dollars, it finally built a complete enterprise structure based on research and development.

Ziwei Xing couldn't afford this kind of change like a world-changing change. Except for Mr. Ren, no one in the country can play.

Fortunately, Shen Xiangyang is an expert, and said with a smile: "No need, Huawei is a hardware technology company, and they have more difficulties than us. What Ziweixing is going to do is AI chips. AI chips are AI-based, and chips are supplemented. AI, and chips. In essence, we are an Internet company, and we only need to make some appropriate management adjustments on certain nodes.”

Zhou Buqi understood what he meant, "There is no need to introduce a systematic and complete management system, just introduce an expert and coordinate management?"

"right."

"But can people be willing? The vice president of STMicroelectronics, come back to be the vice president of Ziweixing Research Institute? Isn't it too talented?"

Zhou Buqi shook his head.

Such an arrangement would certainly not work.

However, it is not appropriate to offer the position of vice president of Ziwei Star. Ziwei Star is an Internet company, and the AI ​​chip is just a small marginal innovation project, not worthy of the position of a group vice president. Excessive elevation will break the balance of the company system.

Shen Xiangyang nodded, "Let's take a part-time job. It's not easy to get a world-class chip expert back. It's a bit overkill for Deng Wenhan to come over to be in charge of AI chips. But we still have Asda Technology. The mobile phone business is not to be a general-purpose chip. Well, that is a world-class difficult project. His main job is the senior vice president and chief scientist of Asda Group, and then concurrently serves as the vice president of Ziweixing Research Institute, in charge of the AI ​​chip business. "

Zhou Buqi was very happy, "This arrangement is quite good. Here comes the question again, is he really willing to come back?"

Shen Xiangyang smiled, "Yes! He works in France. Didn't you pay attention to recent events in France?"

"Uh... economic crisis? General strike, parade?"

"Not only? His house was robbed."

"ah?"

Shen Xiangyang said: "A few black men came to the door with guns and robbed his house. His wife and daughter were there, and something big happened almost."

Zhou Buqi said in a deep voice: "This is outrageous! This matter is very serious, um, I have to go back to my country! I can only go back to my country! I have gone to the United States and the United Kingdom. There are as many blacks, guns are as rampant, and it is not safe! It is better to go back to China good!"

"We may have to spend a lot of money to compensate his contract."

"As long as you can come back, it's worth the money!"

Zhou Buqi waved his hand!

This kind of thing cannot be measured by money.
