The day after returning from Taiwan, Xia Tian returned to the company to handle affairs.

He first returned to Tianxia Pictures because there were the most problems there.

When Tan Guolun was in power, he had a conservative style and tried to be stable, which resulted in Tianxia Pictures not starting filming new films for three months.

His doing so many stars, directors, and employees have nothing to do, causing serious waste of the company's resources and causing huge losses to the company. Therefore, his mistakes must be corrected as soon as possible and let Tianxia Film get back on track as soon as possible.

After returning to Tianxia Pictures, Xia Tian first instructed Tan Guolun to present the projects submitted by the directors in the past few months.

When he was in power, most of the projects were assigned to directors. For example, he gave Wu Yusen the two movies "The True Colors of Heroes" and "Blooded Two Heroes", "The Dao Ma Dan" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" to Xu Ke, and "Asura" and "Peacock Prince" to Yuan Kui...

Because he has the golden finger of his past life, he knows which drama is more popular, which actor is more suitable for the role, and which director is more suitable for directing a drama. So he wrote the script and the actors were also set. As long as the director filmed the scene well, he could make a lot of money smoothly.

However, he went to the United States a few days ago and couldn't take care of Hong Kong for a while, so the directors had to find projects, write scripts, find actors, attract investments, and make movies by themselves.

The stack of scripts in front of him are handed over by these directors.

"Have you read these scripts?" Xia Tian couldn't help but frown when he looked at the thick stack of scripts, at least 10 or 20.

With so many scripts, I dare not say that each of them is a fine product, but there is always one that is better among the sluts. However, Tan Guolun has not reviewed any of them and has allowed the company's production business to be shut down for three months. This is simply a corpse-positioned meal!

In three months, if you follow the previous progress, you can make at least four movies. Based on the average profit of each movie, the four movies will be 240 million Hong Kong dollars. This is not the case with the three-month suspension period, the salary, benefits, etc. of celebrities, directors, employees.

Such a huge loss made him feel so painful even if he thought about it. It’s so damn!

"Mr. Xia, I have read all these scripts, but I don't think they are good, so I didn't pass the review." Seeing Xia Tian's face sinking, Tan Guolun frowned into the word "chuan". He knew that he must be extremely angry now, so he quickly helped himself defend himself.

"Hmph! Then tell me what you have done in the past three months!" Xia Tian slapped the table.

In the whole three months, the company has not made a movie. What do people inside the company think about it or what do people from the outside world think about it? These are all invisible harms to Tianxia Pictures.

"I have released twelve movies, received a lot of advertisements and commercial performances... The company's profits have not decreased in the past three months, and have increased by 20% from before." Tan Guolun said hurriedly.

Although Tianxia Pictures has not invested in new films, the films that have been invested in before and released movies from other companies have not caused the Tianxia Cinemas to be out of stock.

Moreover, if you publish movies in other companies, Tianxia Pictures does not have to invest heavily or take any risks, and you can get 60% of the share and make a pure profit.

In addition, the star and director of Tan Guolun helped the company to take on many advertisements and commercial performances.

The price of big directors and big stars is certainly not expensive. For example, Wu Yusen directs an advertisement that lasts a minute, charges 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, and can be completed in just three days, which makes more money and faster than directing a movie.

Like Guan Zhilin took an advertisement, if she only filmed a print advertisement, it would cost at least 500,000 Hong Kong dollars in two years. If it was a TV advertisement, it would cost at least 1 million Hong Kong dollars in two years.

In addition to taking on advertisements, there are also various commercial activities, such as helping products stand up, laying the foundation of a property, and cutting the ribbon in the store... Like Li Jiaxin attending a commercial event, it costs HK$50,000 in just one hour, which is more cost-effective than filming.

There are more than one big star and director under Tianxia Pictures. They have received more than 10,000 advertisements and commercial performances in the past three months. In addition to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Nanyang, Fusang, South Korea, and even the mainland have sent invitations.

Therefore, although Tianxia Pictures has not made new films in the past three months, it has made more money than before. Therefore, Tan Guolun is eager to defend himself.

"Yes, you can make money, but do you know how the money you make comes from? You earned it by overdrawing the resources of Tianxia Pictures." Xia Tian waved his hand and said, "You asked celebrities to take on so many advertisements and commercial performances, which made them overexposed. Do you know how much harm they will cause to their image and popularity?

Don’t you know that these stars are so valuable because they have the support of their works. How much loss will your current popularity cause to them if you don’t shoot new movies for three months?

And celebrities and directors make money, but who do those behind the scenes ask for their losses? When they can only get basic salary, they see those celebrities and directors making money every day and gaining both fame and fortune. Wouldn't they be jealous? With an imbalance in their mentality, can they still work with peace of mind and produce good works?"

Facing Xia Tian’s questioning, Tan Guolun was sweating coldly, his legs were trembling, and he felt guilty, and he was speechless again.

"You only care about making quick money and taking good care of the books, so you ignore the long-term development of the company. This is not possible." Xia Tian shook his head and said.

He used to think that Tan Guolun was good, capable of doing things, and was cautious, so he was relieved to leave Tianxia Film to him to manage. However, now it seems that Tan Guolun has the ability to do things, but lacks strategic vision. Therefore, he can only be a general who can fight, but cannot be a marshal who leads the army.

It is easy to get a good general, but hard to find a handsome man. This is not only a problem facing Tianxia Pictures, but also a problem facing all companies in the world. It is famous like Apple. Since Jobs' death, his successor Cook has always been questioned by the outside world for lack of leadership and believes that he is completely incomparable to Jobs.

"Yes, boss, you are right, I did do it wrong." Tan Guolun lowered his head and admitted his mistake in cold sweat.

"Well, let's do it. Don't do it now. Look, you should follow me and learn from me for a few more years." Xia Tian ordered.

Tan Guolun has the ability to do things, and it would be a pity to kill him with one stick. It would be better to use everything and put him in a suitable position and let him continue to serve himself.

"Yes, boss." Tan Guolun nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Xia Tian was taken off from the position of general manager, fortunately he returned to Xia Tian, ​​which was not a bad thing for him.
Chapter completed!
