my crew is not human

Chapter 191 Capital kidnapping
When she woke up early in the morning, Han Xinyu had already left for the set.

Li Xianyun was rarely quiet, and studied photography knowledge for a while.

While watching, there was a knock on the door outside.

Li Xianyun opened the door and saw a well-dressed woman in standard white-collar work clothes who looked about [-] standing at the door, holding a folder in her hand: "Boss Li? My name is Su Haili, Miss Han Xinyu entrusted me to come here." of."

"It's so fast." Li Xianyun muttered.

After all, Han Xinyu was never overwhelmed, so Li Xianyun agreed to accept an assistant.

Of course, it is impossible for her to pay the salary, so it will really become her eyeliner.

Li Xianyun turned sideways to let her in.

Su Haili quickly entered the room and handed the document to Li Xianyun: "This is my resume."

Li Xianyun beckoned her to sit down, and slowly turned over: "You were with Lao Mo before?"

"His executive agent." Su Haili replied.

Li Xianyun knows that the executive broker is the deputy of the big broker, and he has management functions.

Li Xianyun said: "That means you have management experience."

"I was in charge of a third-tier artist before."

"Give up that third line to come to me, do you feel a little wronged?" Li Xianyun couldn't help asking.

Su Haili smiled: "If you slept in this room yesterday, you should have heard her call me for two hours and give me a lot of promises."

Yes.

Of course Li Xianyun knew this.

Su Haili was originally unwilling, but Han Xinyu repeatedly reassured her, so she dug Su Haili over.

Li Xianyun said: "She exaggerated my ability."

"So I checked your information last night." Su Haili made it clear that she was not moved by Han Xinyu.

Li Xianyun smiled: "Then tell me what you are good at."

Su Haili hummed: "Brokers essentially provide services for artists, so my external relations are not bad. In addition, I am responsible for Mr. Mo's studio affairs."

Mo Rui is the person in charge of a studio in charge of artist brokerage under Huayou. Dou Lingling was originally the person in charge of another studio, but her status is not as high as that of Mo Rui. Now she is about to be vacated by her.

As for Su Haili, she is equivalent to Mo Rui's deputy, but she does not belong to the entourage, but sits in the rear, and may do more management work than Mo Rui.

In fact, the ability of many deputies may not be weaker than that of the boss, and the main ability of the boss is to control core resources.

For example, who can sign a contract with Han Xinyu, Li Xiaoxiao and other artists, no matter whether this person is capable or not, he is the boss!

Li Xianyun thought for a while and asked, "What do you think of Yisheng Media?"

Su Haili smiled: "I haven't joined Yisheng Media yet, so I can't comment for now."

Lao Jianghu will not say what I think about your company from the very beginning, it is necessary to speak carefully.

But Li Xianyun is different.

He said: "Not understanding does not mean that there is no idea. Sometimes you can't see it, but you can see it more accurately."

Su Haili was puzzled: "I don't understand."

Li Xianyun said lightly: "You know Xinyu and are also from Huayou. It is impossible that you don't know anything about Yisheng Media. For you, those understandings may be superficial, so you can't draw conclusions casually. But in In my opinion, what you want is your ignorance...Sometimes outsiders can see clearly than insiders.”

Outsiders can see few things, but they often see the whole outline, the whole!

Because they do not know the internal situation, their opinions may be divorced from reality, but they will not be affected by those so-called details, and sometimes it is easier to point directly to the core.

For example, if you tell a certain boss: Do business with integrity and long-term considerations. Your current approach is inappropriate.

The boss may tell you: Oh, you don't know my situation, sometimes I can't think so long-term.

Various internal intricate situations will often affect your judgment, and give yourself a reason to give up the correct approach-because the correct approach often requires a lot of price in the early stage!

On the contrary, outsiders can not be affected - so sometimes the more you see, the less you can find the core of the problem, or you can't get rid of those things that entangle you.

Hearing Li Xianyun's words at this moment, Su Haili thought for a while, and said, "Huawei's chairman once fired an employee because he gave him a letter of advice."

Li Xianyun replied: "Everyone has his own way of working and thinking. He has his own ideas. I don't want to judge right or wrong. As for me, I have my own style. Now I want to hear your opinion as an outsider. "

Li Xianyun also figured it out, prestige and humility are incompatible, but they can be combined - when I don't want to listen to opinions, you fucking shut up.When I want an opinion, just be honest.

Li Xianyun has a number of posts, and he can't distinguish between black and white faces, so he simply has a split personality.

As for the grasp of this scale...it's up to me to figure it out!

"Then I'll speak up." Su Haili smiled.

Li Xianyun made a casual gesture.

Su Haili said: "First of all, I think there is something wrong with your company structure."

Li Xianyun frowned: "Oh?"

"Yisheng Media was originally a post-production company, but now it is transforming to focus on film and television production, while still retaining the post-production business. The film and television production company itself is a highly professional and highly subdivided industry. Putting it together with post-production will lead to rights. Responsibilities are not divided. Small companies are fine, one person can do more than one person, but it can’t be done when it becomes bigger. Yisheng Media is developing, and your existing system will definitely slow down your pace.”

Hearing this, Li Xianyun smiled.

She was right.

During this period of time, Li Xianyun has been troubled by Yisheng Media's internal management issues.

Whether it is the system, personnel structure, or business structure, there are problems. The problem is not big now because Li Xianyun personally ended the business. The company is developing well, and many problems have not been exposed for the time being.

But the so-called goodness is just that the films he made can sell money-it is Li Xianyun's films that can sell money, not how profitable his team is!

His team earned millions of dollars from nine films. Does the other income have anything to do with the team?

The company's profits are supported by the boss's work, and this is the core issue.

no way.

The first core resource of a traditional businessman is capital, and only when you have money can you be a boss.The second is network, you have business opportunities only when you have connections.The third is management ability, not to say that this is not important, but that this part can also be done by finding other talents.

How else would there be a difference between a chairman and a CEO?
But Li Xianyun's core resources are ghosts, and only he can use his core resources at will, neither giving them to others nor making them public.Therefore, no matter how big you are, you must be in the front-line position, which will inevitably lead to lagging behind the development of the company in terms of system-he does not rely on the system to maintain the company, but on personal will and ability.

This makes Yisheng Media Company develop rapidly and have amazing efficiency on the one hand, but on the other hand, the management system is backward, and it is all relying on the leader, the boss, to pull it hard.

However, backward management is not a big problem, the key is whether you can find out and correct it in time.

At this moment, Li Xianyun nodded: "I still neglected my responsibilities as a leader during this time."

He didn't ignore it, but at this time... it's better to be modest, otherwise people won't dare to speak.

"You don't need to do everything yourself." Su Haili said.

Li Xianyun shook his head: "But don't worry if you don't look at it."

Su Haili was surprised: "You don't trust your employees?"

"I'm from the lower classes, and I've seen a lot of the dirty side of the industry, and I'm sure you've seen it too. I mean...whether it's ability or loyalty."

Su Haili understood.

She smiled slightly: "Where is the circle that is not dirty? The boss must have the mentality of the boss. You can't just take care of everything yourself because of this. A good system is the way to solve the problem."

"Is there such a system?"

Su Haili smiled: "No."

There is no perfect system in the world, only a decent one.

Li Xianyun hummed: "I will consider solving this problem later. Is there anything else?"

Seeing that Li Xianyun really took her opinion seriously, Su Haili became more confident."You don't seem to like outside investment and partnerships?" she said.

"Well, there are indeed some reasons that make me more resistant to this aspect."

"But I think that if companies want to grow, they have to cooperate more, including accepting investment."

"I have my reasons."

"The reason why you want to listen to my outsider's opinion is because I don't know your difficulties, so I can ignore your difficulties?" Su Haili asked with a smile.

Yep, poked back.

Li Xianyun narrowed his eyes, thinking very seriously.

After a while, he said: "One of the basic principles of Yisheng Media is absolute control. The control is not limited to the company, but also includes projects. External capital is not unacceptable, but must be chosen carefully. "

Su Haili asked: "Are you afraid of being kidnapped by capital?"

Hearing this, Li Xianyun smiled: "Is this your opinion?"

Su Haili was stunned. She heard Li Xianyun's meaning, which turned out to be full of deep disdain for the term capital kidnapping.

Sure enough, Li Xianyun said: "People in the film and television industry call capital kidnapping, it's really ironic to say it."

Don't look at the film and television industry as a big pocket of capital, they are often very arrogant, calling capital to kidnap us every now and then.

So is capital kidnapped?

Of course!
The most typical is that the investor nominates a certain actor to play the role, or even nominates what type of film to make, including the film "Battle of Sky City" and "Li Cheng".

From this point of view, the will of the capital has influenced the producer, and indeed kidnapped the will of the producer, making it difficult to produce good works.

But is it wrong?
The investor's money, the investor can't call the shots anymore?
You think capital is kidnapping, so why is the film and television industry soliciting investment everywhere, begging to be kidnapped by capital?If you think the capital is not enough, you don't have to cooperate!

To put it bluntly, isn't it still for money?

If the film loses money, it is the investors who lose money, and the film and television company makes money.

The film makes money, the investors make money, and the film and television company makes resource money plus box office revenue.

They won't lose anyway.

While taking the investor's money to fill up his wallet, he still thinks that the investor has his own ideas and says that the investor's capital is kidnapped. Isn't that ridiculous?

You took advantage of all the benefits of co-authoring the whole world, and let you do all the good people?
In fact, this is not just a matter of the film and television industry, but all circles, as long as you need investment, it will be like this.

Including those Internet companies, all rely on investors to grow up. People only see the successful ones, not the bankrupt ones.

When it comes to success, it is called vampires that investors rely solely on the founder to make money, but no one will consider that only one out of ten capital investors may get one, and the remaining nine will lose their money.

Is capital a good person?

Of course not necessarily.

They also have their own ideas, and some capital does not use their own money.

Like film and television companies, they set up a fund and use money from retail investors to do business. The losses are also owned by lower-level investors, and the gains are their own.

Are grassroots investors innocent?Maybe not?Isn't it still for lying and earning?
It’s not a sin to make money, just lie down and make money... Hehe, having such a beautiful dream, if you don’t lose money, who will lose money?

Therefore, no one is more noble than anyone else.

Only who has more initiative than who.

The capital market is like a big casino: in this place, there are no innocents, only winners and losers!

On the issue of initiative, of course, the trader has the advantage.

What the capital can do is only the general direction, and the specific operations are carried out by the producer, and there are a lot of hands and feet that can be done.

So in terms of heart, the investor and the investee can be said to be very different.

But in terms of actual control of the initiative, the investor is the father before investing the money, and the invested party becomes the father after receiving the money.

Because of this, Li Xianyun sneered at the fact that the film and television industry always called capital kidnapping.

In his opinion, there is only one kind of people who can despise capital: those who do not attract investment.

But the reality is so ironic: Li Xianyun, who does not cheat investors, does not agree with the idea of ​​capital kidnapping!On the contrary, a group of bullies are calling for kidnapping by capital every day, and capital pays and takes the blame.

It's also really evil.

The reason for this is that Li Xianyun invested in his own production, he himself is the employer, and his first position is naturally the employer rather than the producer.

Su Haili understood Li Xianyun's meaning: "So you oppose the entry of capital, but you don't despise them?"

"To be precise, I despise everyone, all circles." Li Xianyun replied: "I despise them all, which means I don't despise them all."

Su Haili: "..."

After thinking about it, she said, "I think I know who you are."
