Hollywood legendary director

"Let the Finance Department make a budget and make sure that the funds are working."

The company's daily operations, plus at least two years of withholding funds to develop film and television projects, as well as the specific amount of offline revenue and box office splits must be planned.

After all, it's just arranging new business on the original system, not for the sake of other aspects of the new business. It doesn't make sense.

This is so as not to speak too much, and eventually make a mess of accounts, but to delay the progress already made.

Joseph nodded in response and exited the office.

Only by determining the financial strength can we know how much money the company can have to develop animations without overly affecting film and television production.

Today, the company has a lot of deposits.

But how to spend money to become a part of strength and heritage requires a clear understanding of how to spend money where it should be spent in addition to restricted talent.

Otherwise, even the things at hand will not be completed, and we will talk about long-term plans.

......

"Have you decided?"

"Ok."

"...It's okay to take a rest for a while, you can let me know when you want to come back."

An office in the Fox Building, Bill McNico said in a complicated tone.

When Christopher Maiedandre left, his figure disappeared behind the door, and he leaned heavily on the back of the chair, not knowing what to think.

The resignation of a backbone will of course have an impact on the development of the original business.

But what can be done?

I have stayed, talked about it in detail, but haven't looked back.

When personal expectations are inconsistent with those of the company, gathering and dispersing is the best way.

Why did McLeodendre think of leaving?Because it doesn't go well.

Why doesn't it go well, the blue sky is out of control.

In other words, with the huge sales of the "Ice Age" series, Chris Witch (the founder of Blue Sky Animation), who has accumulated countless achievements and qualifications, is also in line with common sense to demand more status and voice.

Give it, the animation department is divided into two relatively separate groups, no one controls all of them, which is inappropriate; not giving it, chilling the subordinates' initiative...

If merit is not rewarded or there is no matching company status, it is definitely unreasonable to raise and lower personnel.

But the difficulty lies in the fact that before the blue sky scored, Mai Lei Dan Derry had already become the general manager of the department...

Of course, there is still a solution to this matter, that is, to transfer to a more core management position... But there are also difficulties, one carrot and one hole, now there are not enough holes, and the grade is enough. Not on...

Therefore, although it is a pity that Mai Lei Dan Derry resigns, it is more acceptable to the company.

There are many capable people, but there are always more capable people. Chris Wedge is also very good.

......

Christopher Mairedandre returned home, and he clearly enjoyed peace that he had never had before, but for a more ambitious person like him, the inner emptiness of "doing nothing" is far worse than physical comfort. heart.

But what can be done?

Keeping on will only make him more uncomfortable.

He just lay on the sofa like this, and occasionally made a phone call to chat with colleagues and friends, because his family was well established and his life would not be insecure.

......

Perlman first went to the headhunting company to exchange news with people, and then was taken to Mairedandre's house in Burbank.

Because I was notified in advance that I was coming to visit, after ringing the doorbell, a woman in her forties and fifties opened the door.

This is his wife.

Then Perlman saw that the target person was sitting and reading the newspaper. He looked very ordinary, but he was in a high position all year round, and he was a powerful person.

Hearing the movement, Mai Lei Dan Deri asked in a puzzled manner: "I wonder what the two of you are looking for specifically for?"

Perlman didn't answer.

A middle-aged white man sent by the headhunting company showed a gentle smile and took the initiative to talk.

If they can reach a cooperation, they have a rich rake of their own, and of course they are very concerned.After all, is this the scope of their business?

In terms of familiarity and chat skills, Perlman is definitely not as good as them who digs corners all the time.

However, McLeodendre looked directly at Perlman, "This is?"

"It's good for your husband to call me Rodriguez." Perlman said straightforwardly: "I am currently the president of Firefly Pictures' market operations. Now our company intends to expand the animation business and sincerely hire managers. My husband is well-known, so come this."

Having said this, Perlman suddenly felt a little unconfident.

"Haha," Mai Lei Dandry chuckled, and said inexplicably after taking the newspaper: "The box office of "300" has exceeded 200 million yuan, and it has been very rewarding."

Perlman didn't know what to say, but he nodded affirmatively.

Yesterday, the global box office of "300" has accumulated 186.2 million U.S. dollars. Coupled with the prosperity of overseas screenings, it is not a problem to earn 20-30 million a day.

In fact, the market potential of North America still has a certain box office space. After entering the next week, although it will inevitably decline, it is still within the scope of normal feedback.

"Your company does not seem to have any trend towards animation. I mean, I don't see that Firefly has the courage to enter the animation field."

Although Mailey Dandry has not been responsible for the work of live-action movies, he still has some understanding of fireflies.

As he said, in the past few years, Firefly never intends to reach out to the animation field, and has no internal reserves.

Now I found it and said that he wanted to open up. It was hard to convince him that Firefly would really give him greater support.

In the animation industry, it is difficult to see the output in a short time as long as you invest money in it.

Maybe, this was just a decision made by a hot pat on the bottom of the brain, and then it was banned once it calmed down.

Perlman could slightly see McLeodendre’s concerns from these words, but he could not tell why.

After all, it was a decision at the highest level. Whether his guarantee could be fulfilled or not, he didn't dare or could not decide the conditions for Lehman.

Besides, he has to be believed by someone.

Thinking of this, Perlman gave a look to the headhunter.

The person understood, and talked about some Firefly's accumulation of strength and the need to develop the animation business-this is of course more convincing for non-insiders.

At least, boasting is not desirable on this kind of managerial talent.

The man took the air and said politely: "Actually, it's not too late to think about the decision after talking more. Isn't the husband tired of animation work?"

Mai Lei Dandry did not answer, but replied as if agreeing: "Make an appointment, I can go and see."

To get such a reply, the headhunters wanted to fight for it again, but Perlman was quite acceptable.

If he doesn't mean to talk at all, he can turn around and leave now-if people don't want to do it, can it be tied up?

"We will inform in advance."

Putting down this sentence, Perlman went back to life.

Waiting for Perlman to leave, Mai Lei Dan De Rui did not have the thought of sitting idle, and directly called his confidant during his appointment in the Gu Fox animation department.

After he left, two or three close to him also left.

Youdao is an emperor and a courtier. This sentence also applies to the workplace.

You know, the expansion of the power of managers depends on the increase in the number of people they manage.

How can an airborne executive quickly expand his voice?

Most of the methods are to increase "own people", so it can be seen that after the high-level changes in the department, some people will always be promoted or recruit new people, but some old people will be marginalized.

It's not that newcomers are more experienced and more capable of doing things than old people, but it's just that they are more obedient and easier to obey.

Within a few days of leaving his post, Mai Lei Dan Derry received that his direct line team had been "washed".

No way, if it were him, he would do the same.

This is because it has the lowest cost and the best effect. It can both establish prestige and train the team, so why not do it.

However, that's only the case, Mai Lei Dan Derry never thought of retiring.

After cleaning, he can instead gather a group of available manpower again.

But the previous lessons also made him more worried about "coming out" again.

He didn't want to, and because of the intervention of shareholders and superiors, he kept different voices. After Blue Sky was acquired, his position in Fox has always been detached and independent, just like the acquisition of Pixar by Disney at the beginning. No more.

"Boss, you said on the phone, do you want to join Firefly?"
