Chapter 90 Falling out and being ruthless
"All the actors are here!"
"All the servicemen are here!"
"All the logistics team is here!"
"..."
Yang Sa was sweating profusely. She was busy counting people and squeezing around to distribute badges to everyone. The large conference room was already crowded with people. Rong Guang glanced at it and found that it was indeed a little small. If a new crew is planned in the future
, you should go to a nearby hotel to borrow an auditorium.
"Rong, do you really want to leave tomorrow? I can already feel the enthusiasm of the capital." The person next to him was speaking to a young white man named Ryan, who was the American engineer.
Ryan does have experience as a Hollywood crew and is very good at playing with equipment. He just dresses like a hippie and likes to hang out in bars every night, which makes people feel uneasy. Considering that he is the nephew of the owner of the equipment company, this is understandable.
"Ryan, you feel the enthusiasm of the girls, right?" Anyway, nothing happened, so Rong Guang just chatted casually.
"Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen this profession. That stingy uncle of mine only gave me an allowance of $200 a day? Bullshit!"
"Haha, then you need to fight against the black-hearted capitalists!"
"Yes! I am also a working class person, and I will wipe out all the capitalists sooner or later! Unless my uncle leaves all his inheritance to me, then I will only be interested in girls. Hahaha!"
"..."
The two of them were talking nonsense when Yang Sa came through the crowd and said, "Master Guang, everyone else is here, but the camera crew is missing one person."
"oh?"
"It's Li Yong, I'm playing with his bb machine." Jiang Wei was also sweating profusely.
Li Yong was the fourth cameraman this time and was considered a relatively important figure in the crew. Rong Guang asked: "Brother Jiang, didn't you inform him yesterday?"
"This..." Jiang Wei said vaguely, "I asked someone to convey it, thinking there would be no problem."
Rong Guang frowned slightly. The current mainland entertainment industry is like this. Sometimes discipline is very lax. More than ten years later, even the management of Hengpiao is not so casual.
However, at this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Director, Li Yong had a fight in a tavern a few days ago, and he is currently in the middle of a fight."
Rong Guang glanced at it and saw that the man's name was Fei Lianhe, a passerby from the bottom of the crew. He belonged to a group of pheasants like himself who had been around for several years.
Then Rong Guang looked around again and found that many people's eyes were evasive. In fact, many people knew about this matter, but they were hiding it from himself and Jiang Wei, right?
After thinking for a few seconds, Rong Guang stood up and said, "Lawyer Feng, Manager Wang, let's go in and discuss."
…
Manager Wang is the manager of that consulting company. Although their fees are very low, the service is still good. Since this is the first project to build a crew management system, Manager Wang took several employees and chose to stay with the team for a period of time.
I hope that the preliminary version can be improved.
Of course, Rong Guang also promised Manager Wang that he would give him a small supporting role in the film.
The three people came to the inner office. Rong Guang asked: "Lawyer Feng, how much is the liquidated damages in the contract?"
Lawyer Feng immediately replied: "Li Yong's salary is 6,000, and liquidated damages are 50,000."
Manager Wang immediately suggested: "Guang Shao, we have encountered many similar situations. It is simple to establish management documents, but difficult to implement. If you can't show mercy and do not give certain punishments, what we have done will
If you don’t set up a management system, it’s just a castle in the air.”
Lawyer Feng shook his head. He came from the law firm hired by Xiongbaizhi Studio: "Guang Shao, you still need to consider the national conditions. We will definitely win the lawsuit, but that 50,000...? Anyway, when you sign the contract, you will be paid.
One thousand and two thousand. If you want to get this part back, it’s almost enough. Otherwise, you need to consider the criticism from the outside world. Also, it is particularly difficult to implement. After all, fifty thousand is a large sum, and Li Yong has just graduated. I don’t either.
Conceal it, don't be ambiguous in the court. Even if we win the lawsuit, we may not get the money at all. When he returns to his hometown, who will he turn to to collect the debt? It's better to give in and the two parties can negotiate a settlement."
What Lawyer Feng said makes sense. In the current "primitive society", the credit reporting system does not exist. Therefore, the cost of debt is extremely low. Add in the 50,000 yuan in this era, which is already 100 months' salary for ordinary people.
Income, how much is it?
In addition, people in this period had relatively indifferent legal concepts and were still in a human society. If Rong Guang asked for liquidated damages, not only would no one talk about the contract and the spirit of the contract, but they would accuse Rong Guang of being cold-blooded and ruthless.
.
Manager Wang also suggested again: "I didn't say, let him compensate the whole 50,000 yuan. But he should pay a little bit. Otherwise, in terms of management, there will be no reward and punishment at all. So how should the other people in the crew be managed?"
"
"Yeah, I understand."
Rong Guang has already made his decision. This Li Yong will definitely not be used again.
But with such laxity and concealment, is it possible for those leading directors and crew to show up?
Rong Guang actually considered it more deeply. In the final analysis, this is a matter of prestige. Since he lacks prestige, he needs to make up for it with iron and blood.
As for the bad reputation? Is your original reputation very good? You always have to make a choice, and you will definitely not satisfy everyone. To scare the monkeys, you always need to have that chicken!
…
A few minutes later, Rong Guang appeared in the conference room again. He made a gesture to keep everyone quiet: "Brother Jiang, regarding Li Yong, please quickly find a substitute!"
The expressions of the people in the conference room were as usual. Such a result was quite normal. Moreover, Li Yong's mistake should be said to be his own fault.
Rong Guang continued: "Also, I will use legal channels to recover the remuneration Li Yong has paid in advance. I will also recover the liquidated damages stipulated in the contract - 50,000 yuan!"
"boom--!"
In an instant, the conference room became abuzz. No one expected that Rong Guang would be so ruthless.
Rong Guang's expression did not change: "I won't say more about the big principles. I hope everyone can take this as a warning..."
"Director." Someone suddenly interrupted, causing Rong Guang to frown slightly. It was actually the second cameraman Gu Yuan, "Director, is this too much? Fifty thousand yuan! Li Yong can't get it out even if he sells the pot!"
Rong Guang smiled nonchalantly. A lawsuit is a lawsuit, and a debt is a debt. He will not push Li Yong to a dead end. If he can understand his mistakes and correct them, it will be easier to discuss in the future.
But such an idea would definitely not be expressed publicly now. So Rong Guang patiently explained: "Xiao Gu, whoever makes a mistake will bear it himself. That's it! Let's start now..."
Unexpectedly, Gu Yuan seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. He slammed the table, stood up and shouted loudly to Rong Guang: "Rong Guang, how could you do this? Is it necessary to become ruthless?"
