Chapter 185: Buying Horse Bones with Thousands of Dollars (Second Update!Asking for Subscriptions!Asking for Monthly Passes!)
In the morning, Hing Kee Tea Restaurant. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The young man with glasses sitting in the box opposite Yin Jun had a Sven face, and his smile was very kind, which also made him look much younger than his actual age.
This glasses man, who is now acting as a first-class screenwriter in TVB, feels that it is an honor for him to be able to sit and eat with Yin Jun today.
It's no wonder that this man named Huang Baiming, although he is 32 years old this year, has worked hard in the screenwriting industry for 11 years, and has survived all the way to the top ten screenwriters in the wireless screenwriting department, but in front of Yin Jun, he is nothing.
Not to mention him, even all the screenwriters in Xiangjiang don't have any capital to be proud and reserved in front of Yin Jun.
Only people in the screenwriting industry know how dazzling and rare it is to have such an achievement as Yin Jun.
Therefore, as soon as Huang Baiming heard that Yin Jun was going to ask him to help revise and improve the book, he took care of the things in his hand and came over after completing the resignation procedures.
Yin Jun originally thought that Huang Baiming's speed was a little slow, but he didn't expect this guy to be so resolute, he didn't take the time to be a script assistant for himself at all, but resigned directly, with a posture of "boss, I'll follow you in the future".
can have such a decision, no wonder Huang Baiming can break out of the sky in the future.
"I didn't think that Brother Ming would come over directly, which made me a little stressed. Yin Jun ate breakfast and said to Huang Baiming with a smile.
"Qi Shao, you don't have to have any worries, you can do whatever you want, as long as I have the opportunity to learn. Huang Baiming said without hesitation.
"Since Brother Ming said so, let's get the script of this movie done first. Yin Jun pondered for a moment, "As for the place of work, it will be placed at your home for the time being, if there is a problem, you can call me again to discuss, I don't know how?"
"I don't have a phone at home. Huang Baiming said a little embarrassed.
"Oh, don't worry about that, you can leave the address later, and I'll have someone from the phone company install it tomorrow." Speaking of this, Yin Jun raised his hand, "Brother Ming, you don't need to say it, although it is a home office, you still have to be treated, although I am not a company here, I can't treat you badly." Otherwise, what will happen to your wife and children?"
After a pause, Yin Jun said again, "It's just that at the beginning, maybe Brother Ming, you have to work overtime and help me fill in the script that this Sanmao brother urgently needs." In terms of remuneration, 10% of all copyrights of this movie belong to you. ”
“10%!?”
Huang Baiming was dumbfounded, not daring to believe what he heard.
He already knew how expensive Yin Jun's script was.
Needless to say, there are millions of TV scripts, and it is no problem to easily get 1 million for a movie script.
If Yin Jun said that 10% belonged to him, wouldn't it be at least 100,000!?
During his 11 years at Wireless, his salary has increased several times from the initial 250 yuan to 1,500 yuan before he left his job, but it still seems very little, far from enough to buy a house, and his wife and son can still only be squeezed into a small rental house of 300 square feet.
Huang Baiming dreamed of changing to a large house of at least 800 square feet, and it would be even better if he could move to a middle-class area.
This is the reason why Huang Baiming heard that Yin Jun asked him to be a screenwriter's assistant, so he left his job to follow without thinking about it.
As long as he can learn half of his ability from Yin Jun, or even one-third, he will be able to have a good income and create better conditions for his family.
But during his studies, Huang Baiming never thought about how much money he would get, as long as he could give 1,000 yuan a month, he would be satisfied.
If it's a little less, seven or eight hundred will do.
After all, this is to get guidance from Yin Jun, and he can better understand Yin Jun's ideas and methods of screenwriting, this is the knowledge and experience that others can't buy with money, and it doesn't matter if he suffers some losses.
However, Yin Jun gave him 10% of the benefit distribution this time, which made Huang Baiming shocked.
"That's right, 10 percent. Yin Jun said: "This is because you helped to complete it alone, so it is 10%." If the script needs more people to improve it in the future, then I will give more benefits. ”
"Why ......" Huang Baiming couldn't help but say: "Why are there so many, Jun Shao! The screenwriter doesn't seem to be worth so much money, right?"
"Then what do you think my current occupation is?" Yin Jun laughed.
"Well, you're different. Huang Baiming scratched his head and said.
"It's all the same, if you give really imaginative people a chance, then they can make a good script. Yin Jun smiled, "For example, Brother Ming, have you been supplementing and perfecting the script for me all your life?
"Hehe......" Huang Baiming smiled embarrassedly.
"A screenwriter without ambition is not a good screenwriter. Yin Jun said, "But if you don't have a screenwriter who has been honed, you won't be a good screenwriter." In the future, as I do more and more, there will be less and less time for creative perfection, so I will definitely recruit more screenwriters. Brother Ming, you're going to leave after you get good in the future.,I'm very supportive.,But I hope you can coordinate a group of screenwriters who will come in the future during the time you work here.,So that they can all learn and progress in their work.,Do a good job of expanding and improving each book.。 ”
"Do you still want to recruit people?" said Huang Baiming in surprise.
"I'm a person with a lot of ideas, but I can't turn every idea into a script. Yin Jun said, "It's enough for you to have Brother Ming now, and when the time is ripe in the future, I hope there will be at least 5 to 10 screenwriters who can help with this." ”
"Jun Shao, your heart is really big. Huang Baiming shrugged.
He still has a few apprentices in his hands, and they are all struggling now.
However, Huang Baiming is new to driving now, and he doesn't know what kind of person Yin Jun is, until he completes the expanded and improved script and receives the salary from Yin Jun, Huang Baiming can judge whether this person is worthy of his own help.
If Yin Jun just spoke beautifully, but was actually stingy, suspicious, irritable, and harsh, Huang Baiming decided to suffer by himself, and the apprentices would not have to suffer.
If Yin Jun did better than he said, then Huang Baiming would definitely be willing to give his apprentices a better future.
"But there is one thing, I need to explain it to Brother Ming first. Yin Jun said, "Because the script is my brainchild, when it is handed over to the screenwriters to supplement and improve the script, it is necessary to sign a confidentiality contract...... This doesn't mean that I don't trust Brother Ming's character, I want to set a rule for everyone, and it is also to avoid leaks that everyone doesn't want to see in the future. ”
"It's okay on my side. Huang Baiming bowed his head and said, "But Jun Shao, are you really from the mainland? How do you know about this kind of secrecy system in Europe and the United States?"
"The more books I read and the more TV I watched, I naturally knew a little more. Yin Jun said calmly.
"I know what Junshao is thinking about, you are not a TV station, so you can't occupy the highest position. Who would dare to leak the script of a television station? Not to mention that Hong Kong would not dare to accept it, and those from other cities would not dare to do so. But if it's a private book.,Then others don't have too many scruples.。 Huang Baiming said eloquently, "If it were me, I would do the same, so it doesn't matter." There are no rules, there is no circle, I will be the first to sign the contract. ”
Yin Jun breathed a sigh of relief.
What is the screenwriting industry in Xiangjiang now, Yin Jun doesn't know, but basically there is no one like him who works alone.
If you want to pull out a bunch of talents by yourself and fill in and complete the script for yourself, confidentiality measures are very necessary, and like Huang Baiming, a screenwriter with a certain experience and status takes the lead in admitting such a system, then the rules of the entire screenwriting department can stand.
If Huang Baiming takes the lead in opposing it, this matter is really difficult to handle, and he can only let Huang Baiming leave in the end.
It is difficult to find a good screenwriter, but it is even more difficult to establish and improve a good system, and in order to make the screenwriting department operate better, it must be that the rules are more important than the people.
Now Huang Baiming agreed very happily, proving that Yin Jun's understanding of him is not wrong, this person knows current affairs, knows advance and retreat, and is definitely a talent.
Thoughts flashed.
Yin Jun took out two documents from the bag on the stool next to him and handed them over: "Brother Ming, here is the story idea of "The Owl and Dumbo" that I wrote, there is a more detailed outline, I hope you can help fill in the details, and then it is best to have a detailed script for the scenes." The second is a confidentiality contract, you go back and take a look, if there is no problem, sign it and get it back, if there is a problem, we will discuss it. ”
Then, Yin Jun took an envelope from his bag and went over, "This is 10,000 yuan, as an advance payment, and when the script is sold, I will deduct it from your remuneration." ”
Huang Baiming showed a look of gratitude and took these things: "Thank you." ”
Yin Jun knew that he had just resigned from wireless and would definitely need some protection, but Yin Jun would not give him money with the same attitude as charity, but took the form of advance payment, which seemed very equal, so that Huang Baiming could feel at ease.
As for why he didn't sign the contract first and then read the script, Huang Baiming also knew that it was because Yin Jun expressed his trust in him.
Such a young man, thinking about things so thoughtfully, made Huang Baiming also understand that Yin Jun's success definitely comes not only from his talent, but also from his way of dealing with people.
Only such a person can maneuver between the three TV stations, like a fish in water, and break into today's great fame!
Seeing that Huang Baiming decided to work hard because of his generosity and trust, Yin Jun nodded secretly.
On the surface, the 10% copyright income is indeed a bit high compared to Huang Baiming's work.
But there is a saying in China that "a thousand dollars buy horse bones".
If you are so stingy in the beginning, who wants to do a career with you?
The difference between generosity and stinginess, in fact, has been staged over and over again by the ancestors.
The most famous are Liu Bang and Xiang Yu.
As we all know, during the period of Chu and Han hegemony, except for the last two years, the rest of the time was basically Xiang Yu had a crushing advantage.
But why did Xiang Yu, who was trying to pull out the mountains and conquer the world, lose in the end, Liu Bang, who was basically a little gangster, created the foundation of the Han family for 400 years?
Some people say that Xiang Yu's failure was due to his violent personality, capriciousness, and imperiousness.
Hearing this, Yin Jun was about to laugh unconsciously.
Do you think Xiang Yu has a violent personality, how does Xiang Yu compare to Temujin, who slaughtered Wancheng?
Do you think that he is capricious and domineering, how is Xiang Yu compared to Cao Cao?
The two people behind him were more than him, and they both achieved great things in the end, why did Xiang Yu lose?
The reason lies in this generosity and stinginess.
Xiang Yu doesn't look at heroes in the world, but in fact, he is very stingy, and he has a lot of talents under him, but he can't use them, and he is notoriously unwilling to give benefits to his subordinates.
He thought to himself, I can handle these things myself, you are just an executor, you can change anyone, why should I give you my things? These are all mine!
Over time, who is willing to follow Xiang Yu to do things?
Don't talk about being tired and tired, in the end, you can't even end up with a good word, I really eat too much to help you do things.
But Liu Bang is different.
This little gangster before he became the emperor was notoriously untrustworthy, and what he was best at was empty promises, and he hadn't laid down the country yet, so he said to his generals, I will seal this place to you, and I will seal that place to you.
What benefits do you want? Do you want money? No problem! When I lay down the country, you will have as much as you want!
Rushing towards this hope, countless generals rallied around him and fought to the death for him to kill the heroic and invincible Xiang Yu.
Although the gangsters are the gangsters, he regretted it again after defeating the country, and killed many generals, but at that time, Xiang Yu was gone, and people didn't even have a place to regret it, so they could only scold him for not being trustworthy.
So from the stories of these two people, you can see that in fact, a person's achievements are related to his mind.
If you are willing to share the fruits of victory with everyone, then there will be more people willing to unite around you, do various things for you, and help you build and manage the country.
If you get all the benefits yourself and treat your subordinates like pigs and dogs, then you will be a little bit of a competitor, and your subordinates will definitely sell you without frowning.
Yin Jun's career is very big, and he will definitely not be able to do everything by himself, so he must use more talents.
Today's talents, no, from ancient times to the present, are also to seek their own interests, when you give him honor and money can make him satisfied, and with more honor and money in front of him, attract him to obtain, talent will definitely work hard.
Because at that time, his efforts were not only for you, but also for himself.
For their own efforts, it must be more and more focused and attentive.
In this way, what you entrust your talents to do will have the basis for success.
Come back to the present.
Yin Jun's 10% interest in Huang Baiming is not much at present, at best, it is more than 100,000.
But if you want to make a super blockbuster in the future and go to Hollywood to make a movie, it is impossible to give a screenwriter 10% of the rights, and even the entire screenwriting team can't get 10%, otherwise the actors, directors, and producers will ...... Wait, how much should they take?
This requires Yin Jun to continuously improve and perfect the system, so that this reward mechanism can not only make everyone feel very satisfied, but also will not affect their own income.
Yin Jun did not feel any difficulty in this.
In the future, whether it is Hollywood or Chinese movies, there are many ways to learn from, and there are many lessons from failure and success.
If these things can't make everyone happy, then Yin Jun is really going back to the forty-two years ago in vain! )
