Chapter 279: Wheat drying under the moon - I owe...
Song Fuquan indeed valued Xu Kong very much.
Even when Lin Hong seemed to have defied public opinion and bought Xu Kong from Fengqing Entertainment at such a high price, Song Fuquan's instructions were also involved.
But at the time, Xu Kong was just optimistic about it, but after Xu Kong came to Fengge, without the restrictions of the company, the dramas he filmed, the songs he wrote, etc. really made Song Fuquan regard him as Fengge from a potential newcomer. Song's best hope for a comeback.
Of course, there must be some reason for the relationship between Xu Kong and Song Youyou.
But in fact, the proportion is not too heavy. If Xu Kong has no connection with his daughter, given the potential that the other party has shown in the past two years.
He will still take out the equity transfer agreement.
However, in terms of price and condition restrictions, there may be more.
After all, Song Fuquan has actually been dissatisfied with Fengge's current huge organizational structure and the number of artists under it for a long time.
Those who are lying on the credit book, he still has to provide many good resources to provide for the embarrassing situation because the other party is an old man.
Zhu Changyun's sudden attack was indeed a very good opportunity.
Although taking away a group of artists with the greatest commercial value under Fengge, it can be said to be a painful experience.
But it further aroused Song Fuquan's competitive spirit, which had disappeared for many years.
Coupled with the presence of Xu Kong, Song Fuquan's certainty is indeed greater.
……
When Xu Kong came out of the Song family, he still felt like he was in another world.
He has indeed lived through two lives, and has experienced all kinds of scenes and things in the entertainment industry, large and small.
But I still didn't expect that in just a few hours, I would become the second-in-command of one of the leading film and television companies in the entertainment industry.
And listening to Song Fuquan's plan, it seems that he is not just a shareholder.
Instead, he plans to completely delegate power to him.
Strictly speaking, these nearly forty shares were intended to tie Xu Kong and Feng Ge into a boat.
Avoid the situation where Xu Kong does not do his best.
After all, although Feng Ge is not yet at the point of life and death, the situation is indeed not good.
……
Judging from the news Xu Kong received.
Zhu Changyun's sudden backstab this time indeed had a huge impact on Feng Ge.
The most obvious, and most important, is the commercial issue.
Many collaborations that had been negotiated or even just needed to sign a contract were completely ruined due to the departure of the original artists.
Some partners who had worked closely with them were directly taken away by Zhu Changyun.
The most obvious thing in a short period of time is the decline in income.
Secondly, what is very important is the departure of administrative personnel within the company.
For example, in the artist department, film and television department, there were obviously a large number of resignations in the middle and senior management. Some of them left with Zhu Changyun, and some took the initiative to find another job because they felt that the situation in Fengge was not good.
These are very real problems, but they have to be solved urgently.
However, Song Fuquan was not completely unprepared.
Especially regarding the film and television department that Feng Ge relies on for survival, although Zhu Changyun has brought many experienced and well-known directors, screenwriters, as well as crew and post-production personnel.
But Song Fuquan has also trained some newcomers privately before.
It is nominally affiliated with another company, but has participated in many Feng Ge projects.
Therefore, although many people in Fengge have left, in terms of the film and television industry chain, it still maintains at least 70% to 80% of the original level.
This is probably the best news that Xu Kong has heard in this period of time.
……
"What?"
Zhu Yu has been affected a lot recently by the turmoil within Fengge and various rumors.
It's not that she can't bear to part with her current job and salary.
After all, Zhu Yu has a certain degree of confidence in her abilities. Even Feng Ge has no worries about finding a job.
The reason why she was worried was simply because of Xu Kong.
After all, Fengge today is no longer one of the largest film and television companies in the country as it was a week ago.
Many artists who were not taken away by Zhu Changyun also began to plan their retreat for the sake of better development.
For Zhu Yu, it is true that her relationship with Xu Kong is more than just a manager and an artist on the surface.
So she also thought that if Xu Kong planned to leave Fengge, there would naturally be companies rushing to get him. A company like Huayuan Film and Television with the same size as Fengge would be a pretty good place to go.
The conditions offered by the other party are probably not too bad.
In addition, she also considered that if Xu Kong left and went it alone, the process might be a little more troublesome and hard, but it would not be impossible.
Looking at it this way, in the eyes of everyone, Feng Ge, who is already destined to decline, is the worst decision.
For Xu Kong, whose career is on the rise, continuing to stay in Fengge will only delay his career.
……
"Well, if nothing else happens, the company's board of directors will announce this decision next week or so."
Almost all the shareholders on the board of directors were dragged away by Zhu Changyun. At this time, Feng Ge had become the voice of Song Fuquan, a lonely man.
Zhu Yu had made a lot of predictions and helped Xu Kong make a lot of back-up preparations.
Even with Huayuan Film and Television, Zhu Yu had some personal contact.
Who knew that Xu Kong would suddenly tell her at this time that he would not leave, and would become Fengge's second largest shareholder besides Song Fuquan?
No matter how this sounds, it makes people feel outrageous.
"So Song Fuquan transferred a large amount of shares to you at such a low price?"
Zhu Yu felt a little incredible.
I even started to wonder if there was some fraud involved.
The main reason is that even if Feng Ge really reaches his current situation, he still has more than 30 to 40 shares. It can almost be said that except for Song Fuquan, most of the remaining shares are with Xu Kong.
……
"Well, Director Song is indeed a very courageous person."
Xu Kong knew Zhu Yu's doubts, but he smiled and answered.
What is certain is that Song Fuquan cannot possibly want to trick him.
Because it's not necessary, and Fengge Film and Television is the other party's hard work for most of his life, and it is unlikely that he would do such a thing for about one billion dollars.
But Xu Kong also had to admit that Song Fuquan, as a big boss in the industry, was indeed quite courageous.
They actually chose him, a young boy in his early twenties, as the key to a comeback.
Maybe it has something to do with Song Youyou, but it's not like ordinary people can make such a decisive decision.
But what I have to say is that Song Fuquan really made the right move.
If it were anyone else, even with Song Fuquan's strong support, he would still have many methods and plans.
But just for Feng Ge to recover from the current situation to the so-called original peak period, it will still take quite a lot of time.
It can be as short as three to five years, and as long as it is long, it is estimated to be at least ten years.
After all, Fengge has experienced more than 20 years of development since its establishment.
But in Xu Kong's hands, everything has become simpler. The company's foundation is still there, especially the completeness of the film and television industry chain, which is enough for Xu Kong to free up his hands and feet.
There are not many other reasons. Whoever calls my buddy is cheating, who is playing tricks with you, and all kinds of fancy business wars.
Just push it all the way through.
……
"Director Xu, are you that busy?"
"I've been here several times recently, but I haven't seen you..."
Looking at Shang Yuxin's sad little eyes, Xu Kong instantly understood what the other party was thinking.
It's nothing more than drying wheat under the moon - I owe the sun...
However, Xu Kong really didn't expect that signing the equity agreement was very easy, but the workload was a bit staggering.
Originally, with the official release of "Sweet Honey", he should be able to take a break after these domestic road shows.
As a result, Feng Ge's sudden change forced Xu Kong to get busy again.
The identity of his shareholder has been announced a long time ago, but he only held the position of vice president.
However, there is almost no so-called actual business that needs to be taken care of.
But if I have to say it, Feng Ge now has the highest say in all department matters. In this regard, with Song Fu delegating power, Xu Kong was basically free to do whatever he wanted.
Of course, business issues are not within the scope that Xu Kong needs to consider, and he himself doesn't understand them.
Naturally, professional matters are left to professionals.
But in terms of content and development, especially in film and television, Xu Kong does have a lot of considerations of his own.
……
Feel the sudden soft touch.
Xu Kong looked down and saw that at some point, Shang Green Cha had come closer and easily took control of him.
During this period of time, Xu Kong really didn't have much time to relieve his stress.
Therefore, Shang Yuxin's method, which was originally low-level, seemed to have immediate results.
Just when the other party was about to comfort him, Xu Kong stopped in time.
"I have a meeting later, it's quite important..."
Xu Kong spoke awkwardly.
It wasn't intentional, mainly because this meeting of the film and television department was quite important, and Xu Kong didn't want to be late.
"Oh..."
Shang Yuxin stood up again in frustration and sat back.
"Let's wait a little longer, it really doesn't work..."
Xu Kong hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and rummaged through the cabinet at the bottom of his desk.
Then handed it to the other party.
Shang Yuxin was a little confused at first, but when she saw the delicate purple color on the packaging, she suddenly understood everything and her face turned red.
This was an extra piece he bought when he gave Zhu Yu a small gift before.
At that time, I also thought that I might change it in the future, and I might not know when it would be used again in the future.
……
But it is obvious that Shang Green Tea seems to be very experienced in all aspects.
But in fact, he is not only a complete newcomer, but also a relatively traditional old school.
At most, some of them seem to be self-reliant, and there is absolutely no way to accept this external thing.
But when she saw Xu Kong's sincere face, she blushed and didn't know whether she should accept it or not.
"Take it, I might be able to use it later."
Although Xu Kong didn't explain it very clearly, it was obvious that how it was used, who it was used for, and where it was used, everything was self-evident.
And without giving her any reaction, it was stuffed directly into Shang Yuxin's hands.
"Then I'll go there first..."
"You can try it first, um, remember to lock my office door."
Xu Kong is now the vice president, so Feng Ge naturally arranged a new office for him.
But he thought it would be troublesome to move around. He was used to staying in the artist department, and his studio team had a lot of people, so he didn't move.
Shang Yuxin didn't react until Xu Kong left.
"Bah, bah, bah!"
"Just give it a try."
Shang Yuxin only felt her face getting hot.
She actually listened to Xu Kong's suggestion just now.
But he immediately realized that it seemed that it was all because of Xu Kong. Every time he came to his office, he never talked about business.
This caused Shang Yuxin to get used to all this.
It wasn't until now that she finally realized that all this was a little beyond what she should have been able to accept.
……
"Is everyone here?"
Xu Kong glanced at Yan Rui and couldn't help but ask.
Yan Rui came back to his senses when he heard Xu Kong's voice.
Mainly because he didn't expect that so many things would happen in less than half a month.
Mr. Zhu actually ran away with most of the company’s veterans, as well as a bunch of his artists, directors and so on.
The most important thing is that it is said that Zhu Changyun took away talents who he recognized as having outstanding abilities.
In other words, I have always been so hard-working and conscientious, but my opponent's performance can only be regarded as mediocre?
This is undoubtedly a considerable blow.
In addition, the internal structure of Fengge has changed a bit too fast.
Why did Director Xu suddenly become the second largest shareholder of Vice President He Company?
……
Yan Rui glanced at the people in the conference room.
There are a lot of new faces, but at the same time, some of the old seniors from the film and television department can hardly be seen anymore.
For a while, he was a little uncomfortable with it.
But he nodded.
"They should be all here..."
Xu Kong has never met the management of Fengge Film and Television Department in such a complete way before, but it is certain that in a company as old as Fengge, the average age of the middle and senior management should be quite high.
But at this time, there were many young faces in their twenties and thirties.
It's almost like a new batch of fresh blood.
In Yan Rui's view, this is definitely not good news, because newcomers will inevitably give people some unreliable feelings.
But in Xu Kong's view, this saved him a lot of trouble.
At the very least, you no longer have to waste time dealing with various chores, and you won't have to worry about someone being dissatisfied or violating the rules.
……
"Director Xu, no, Mr. Xu, where should we start?"
"We currently have six remaining projects in filming or post-production, but they are all relatively small investments."
"The large project originally planned has been temporarily shelved due to force majeure."
Yan Rui opened his mouth to introduce.
Of course, he did not directly mention the impact of Zhu Changyun's departure, but simply omitted it as force majeure.
The main thing is that Feng Ge has just reorganized, so it would be an understatement to say that people are panicking.
He saw no need to mention the past.
"Ongoing projects will just follow the original plan. If the project has not been officially approved, we will shelve it directly and remove the director and other creative teams. If they are still there..."
Xu Kong has also read relevant information and has a certain understanding of Feng Ge's current situation.
At this time, he was talking about his arrangements in an orderly manner.
"But if the project is suddenly stopped, I'm worried about the director and producer..."
Yan Rui couldn't help but remind him.
Several of Feng Ge's big-ticket movies and dramas were produced by several well-established and well-known directors from the company, and their budgets had all been reviewed and approved, but now they were suddenly stopped.
At such a tense time again, Feng Ge's situation could no longer bear the departure of these veteran directors.
"I have my own plan..."
Xu Kong opened his mouth and called out.
Then regardless of Yan Rui's opinion, he suddenly asked:
"What's going on with Zhu Changyun? I'm referring to his new company."
Yan Rui was stunned for a moment.
"Mr. Xu means..."
Xu Kong opened his mouth and answered:
"Their new company has just been established, and they probably have all the manpower. It's impossible not to make movies or new dramas, right?"
Xu Kong's words made the middle and senior management of the entire film and television department, including Yan Rui, a little surprised.
Listening to this meaning, Feng Ge has just begun to try to start over at this time, and it is not certain whether he can solve the current problem of making ends meet.
Are you actually planning to have a head-on fight with Zhu Changyun?
