The summer in Beijing is not the same as the summer in Cannes, I just feel it is dry.

Since moving to Beitaipingzhuang in 1970, Beijing Film Studio has been here for 18 years. After Wang Yang and Hu Qiming, another new factory director has been welcomed: Song Chong!

Song Chong is 47 years old this year, at the level of a department, and a standard young and strong school.

At this moment, he sat in the office, listening to Li Shaohong report on the progress of "Silver Snake Murder Case", and smiled and said, "Since it goes well, just do what you think, don't have any worries, I fully support it!"

"Okay! Thank you, Director!"

Li Shaohong left happily.

After graduating from Beijing Film Studio, she was assigned to Beijing Film Studio and worked as an associate director of three films. She watched her classmate Chen Kaige go to Cannes and Zhang Yi go to the Oscars, and she was anxious. If she followed the tradition of Beijing Film Studio, she would have to wait for a few more years before she could direct independently. Fortunately, Song Chong came.

Song Chong had done a good job in the Children's Film Studio before, so he transferred him to hope that he could reverse the decline of Beijing Film Studio.

After taking office, he did ignite three hot spots, one of which was to promote entertainment films and strongly support young directors, so Li Shaohong got the opportunity to film "The Murder of Silver Snake", starring Gong Li's classmate Jia Hongsheng.

This movie is very cult. The protagonist is psychopathic. He specializes in kidnapping girls and releases a silver ring snake to bite them to death... It doesn't match Li Shaohong's "The Palace of Ming Dynasty", "The Orange is Red" and "Dream of the Brocade". It can only be said that the young director is fighting.

"Oh, if you don't take charge of your business, you don't know how expensive it is!"

"A total mess!"

Li Shaohong went out, and Song Chong sighed in the house and flipped through the account book of Beijing Film Studio. It was not long after he took office, but he had flipped through the account book hundreds of times, as if he could make money by browsing it once more.

So far, Beijing Film Studio has owed more than 10 million in debts, all of which have been borrowed from banks.

It has expired long ago and can't afford it at all.

If you can't afford to pay it back, you can't continue to borrow, and you will have no money. Banks are too lazy to deal with it. If you don't pay back debts in later generations, banks can ask for them, auction them, and companies can go bankrupt and reorganize, but this is in the 1980s! It's still Beijing Film Studio.

Can you auction Beijing Film Studio?

"There are 130 actors, only fifty of them filmed...there are holes everywhere!"

Song Chong had a headache and regretted taking on this job. Beijing Film Studio has a big business, which is completely different from the situation of the Children's Film Studio. But since he became the factory manager, he had to find a way. He was smart and courageous, and had a preliminary direction:

First, we will not borrow money from the bank, so we need to borrow money through multiple channels; second, we will introduce foreign capital and make joint films; third, we will sell video shares and raise funds from all employees of the factory and the whole society; fourth, we will implement contracting within the factory and find a way out!

I have to say that these ideas are indeed very breakthrough and are forced to do so.

Thinking of this, Song Chong suddenly stood up and went out of the door, went downstairs and turned to the near the guesthouse, where several bungalows had been built for rent. One of them had a sign hanging with the words: "Jidi New Form Film Technology Development Company!"

"Mr. Zhang! I'm here to visit!"

Song Chong is cheerful and good at socializing, and he jokes when he enters the door. There is a person sitting inside, Zhang Erzan, who just retired deputy director, and smiles: "Don't joke about me, what am I the chief?"

"Hey, I heard that Shenzhen is full of generals, so you will naturally be generals when you start a company!"

The two of them joked for a few moments, and Song Chong sat down, Zhang Erzan looked at the time, but it was almost done, and it only started at two o'clock in the afternoon.

What's going on with this company?

The Film Bureau sent a task not long ago to ask Beijing Film Studio to create a 70mm wide screen movie. Zhang Erzan is a technology expert and should be responsible, but he happened to be retired! So the three parties researched and found a company under the Beijing Film Studio.

The indicators for two movies are given every year, and Zhang Erzan is asked to develop a 70mm wide screen film.

Beijing Film Studio has no money yet, so Song Chong simply implemented his own reform idea: to let Zhang Erzan sell video shares and raise funds publicly.

In history, the first movie made by this company was "Invincible Mandarin Duck Legs"! Chen Qi posted "Invincible Mandarin Duck Legs" early on in "Stories Club" and then filmed by Shanghai Film Studio, and then there was a change.

Zhang Erzan found a script called "The Legend of Jiangnan".

It is said that during the Southern Song Dynasty, a hero helped Yue Fei fight against the Jin Dynasty. As a result, Yue Fei was recalled by twelve gold medals and died at Fengbo Pavilion. The hero failed to rescue him and was discouraged and retreated to the world with his wife.

Wang Qun and Huang Qiuyan play a couple, the male and female protagonists.

There are also Sun Jiankui, Xiong Xinxin, He Qing, Tao Huimin and others, all of whom are the team of Oriental Company - Beijing Film Studio can shoot other things and shoot martial arts films, but there are no talents.

Sun Jiankui and Xiong Xinxin have been in Hong Kong for a long time and have even been to the United States. They have long looked down on this little money. This time it is a friendly support.

"The Legend of Jiangnan" is 1.1 million yuan. Zhang Erzan went to Guangdong to raise 800,000 yuan first, and the rest planned to be raised in Beijing. The notice has been posted in the factory area long ago, starting at 2:00 pm, with a target expected to be 200,000 yuan.

"Do you think it can be done?" Song Chong was unsure.

"I'm not good at saying that the factory has no money and the employees have money. Everyone has no worries about food and clothing in the factory. They spend less money, and they may not have more. It's okay to spend a few thousand yuan, it depends on whether they dare to invest!"

Zhang Erzan thought to himself that if Gong Xue was in the capital, she could have 200,000 yuan per person, but she couldn't do that.

It was time to go, no one came.

After waiting for a while, at 2 o'clock, the few people were anxious and finally saw an old employee sneaking into the door, and said, "Old Zhang! Are you reliable? Don't lose money!"

"You make money and lose money when making movies. Do you still need me to teach you? If you invest, you can invest, don't get out of here!"

Zhang Erzan cursed, "It's all acquaintances, so you don't hesitate to speak politely."

"Hehe! I can't ask?"

The man walked to the table and said, "Who is our martial arts director in this movie? The martial arts movies are going to be wonderful, otherwise no one will watch them!"

"Martial arts coach Sun Jiankui, Xiong Xinxin! Do you want to make a shot?"

"Purchase! It's good if they're there."

The man took out a pack of money and wrapped it in newspapers. He was so thick that he opened it carefully. The bundles of ten yuan were all covered with money. He gritted his teeth and said, "Four thousand yuan! You can do it!"

"Yo ho!"

Zhang Erzan was shocked and said, "I said Lao Li, you are a famous iron rooster. Can you bear to give out 4,000 yuan?"

"Our children are both married and they are both serious units. My wife and I have no expenses, and we are not paying any salary increases..."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Song Chong, and Song Chong pretended not to see it, "So it would be better to give it a try after we discussed it. It is mainly because we trust you and know the truth."

"Don't interfere, you should scold me if you compensate me then."

Zhang Erzan passed the money to the finance department and counted it on the spot. If he made money afterwards, he would pay dividends according to the proportion. Because the policy changed last year, China Film no longer purchased and sold it in a unified manner, so he could negotiate distribution methods such as account sharing, buyout, agency, etc.

In the era of state-owned enterprises, especially large state-owned enterprises, employees really take care of everything from life to death, and every family can save some money.

With this beginning, there were a lot of people all of a sudden and lined up in a blink of an eye.

They are all thousands or thousands, and it doesn’t make much sense to have fewer ones. If there are too many, you dare not take risks. Zhang Erzan is already sweating all over and even shouts: “Find a sack! sack! Can’t hold it anymore!”

"Oh! Did Lao Zhang carry a sack of money home today?"

"One sack is not enough, at least three sacks!"

"Don't embezzle!"

"I'm so greedy! I've retired, so I'm not talking nonsense here!"

Zhang Erzan said angrily.

Historically, this company made five films in total, and each of them made money. However, Zhang Erzan still had a pension of 100 yuan a month. When he made money, he would use equipment, continue filming, or hand it over to Beijing Film Studio.

But the cost of 70mm wide screen was too high, so I stopped doing it later. Then I invested in amusement parks and set up wide screen cinemas, but it failed and I lost all the money.

This inconspicuous company is insignificant in the entire reform tide, and can only be said to be a small attempt by domestic films.

It was almost five o'clock, and I was finally finished.

Zhang Erzan was so tired that he picked up the booklet and looked at it. He was shocked: "I collected more than 300,000 yuan!"
Chapter completed!
