Vol 6 Chapter 198: Brokerage company (√)

"No screenwriters association? What does this mean?" Cheng Hao was first anxious when others weren't in a hurry.

However, he entrusted the establishment and development of the Screenwriters Association to Zhang Yun. Yesterday he asked Zhang Yun and Zhang Yun was still full of confidence.

But now, Cheng Hao has laid the groundwork for Zhang Yun for a long time, and Zhang Yun has said that he will not open a screenwriters association?

What kind of idea is this?

"Teacher Cheng, don't worry. According to my experience, Teacher Zhang Yun can say this, and it will definitely be reversed later." Ai Siyi, who knows well about reversal, persuaded Cheng Hao.

Everyone immediately waited for Zhang Yun's next words.

Zhang Yun nodded at Ai Siyi, and said to everyone: "I think the significance of establishing an association in China is really small.

"As Mr. Cheng said, domestic associations generally do not have any substantive power. Just like the directors’ association or the actors’ guild, the only function is to hold meetings every year. It is known as providing a communication platform to promote communication. If we are in Officially registered with the Screenwriters Association, it will probably have such a function. Rights protection can definitely protect rights. It is another matter if others will not listen.

"So I think, instead of creating a screenwriters association that has no substantive effect, it is better to let a group of us take the lead and create a brokerage company that specializes in serving Chinese screenwriters!"

"A brokerage company that serves screenwriters?" Hearing Zhang Yun's words, everyone in the room looked at each other and seemed to vaguely understand what Zhang Yun meant.

"You mean, let the screenwriter be like an artist, have his own agent, and then use the agent to protect his legal rights?" Kuqi asked.

"Probably so." Zhang Yun nodded.

"If the screenwriter has the money to ask an agent, he might as well find a better lawyer to help himself with the appeal. You are a TV series, so you don't even know how much blood the agent is?" Guo Yuchi was very upset. Asked.

Of course the agent is not new at all. Don’t those singers and actors all have an agent?

What is a broker? Probably the middleman. In short, the agent helps the artist to contact the business, so that the artist has more exposure opportunities and opportunities to make money, and he charges the corresponding fee.

For migrant workers, there is a foreman who will introduce you to work, and if you go to the construction site for a day, you have to give him a bit of commission. If you earn one hundred and five a day, he will earn twenty.

A normal kind of brokerage behavior.

but!

It must be said but.

The industry of celebrities is so special. You are talented and useless, and you have skills and useless. If you want to become a big star, the most important thing is that you have to have exposure, have resources, and let the audience know you so that you can become more popular and earn more.

So, for many amateurs, they have no channels and contacts to expose themselves, so how can they go to the audience and show off their talents?

Therefore, many amateurs with good conditions will be discovered by the brokerage company, signed a contract with the brokerage company, and with the help of the brokerage company, make their debut and become famous.

Because in the process of making their debut and becoming famous, the artist must rely on the channels and resources of the agency company. Therefore, in the contract signed by the two parties, the brokerage will often be drawn very hard.

Twenty-eight open is acceptable, thirty-seven open is normal, four-six open is kind, and fifty-five open is LBW awesome...No, thank God.

All in all, in the five or even ten years of their debut, half or even more of the money earned in various announcements and performances went into the pockets of the agency.

If you want to change this situation, unless the brokerage company finds it conscientiously, or the contract expires and is revised again, or is favored by other companies, the other party is willing to help pay the sky-high liquidated damages.

Otherwise, in the words of Teacher Ma, it is: sucking blood, what do you say about sucking blood?

Therefore, Zhang Yun proposed to open a brokerage company that serves screenwriters. Of course, people who know how to do it will not think it is a good thing.

They even thought Zhang Yun might have drunk too much.

Needless to say, the big screenwriters will rarely infringe on their own rights and interests (Cheng Hao’s is purely because the management does not speak martial arts ethics, special circumstances), and the small screenwriters can not make much money by writing a play by themselves. The broker splits half and half and basically can't survive.

It's like Guo Yuchi said, if you have money to hire a broker, it's better to find a better lawyer.

"This problem is not a big problem. We should pay less. Anyway, we will decide on our own." Chen Qi helped Zhang Yun get out of the siege, and then asked new questions. "But I don't understand why you don't want to set up a screenwriters association. What kind of agency do you want to serve the screenwriter?"

Not only Chen Qi, in fact, other people can't understand this problem.

Seeing everyone’s eyes cast, Zhang Yun explained with a smile: "The advantage of establishing a screenwriters association is that it is officially recognized and it is easier to gain the trust of screenwriters. After all, it is an official institution. But the screenwriters association has more disadvantages. For me It seems that the biggest disadvantage of this is that profit is not allowed.

"Have you ever thought about how can the Screenwriters Association really protect the legitimate rights and interests of screenwriters? I think the most direct and effective way is to let the Screenwriters Association have enough influence to affect the judgments of all employers. Let them When revising the script of the screenwriter, we will consider whether the screenwriters association will express dissatisfaction if we do that.

"A simple screenwriters association, no one cares at all. You must have an influence, a reputation, or a certain social status before others can look at you. Just like everyone here, when you are not famous, Who will listen carefully to your opinions? After you become famous?"

Few of you here can be like Zhang Yun. After writing two or three scripts, they jumped out to start a company. They have also been in the industry for more than ten or twenty years before they have their current status.

The bitterness of the past is now vividly visible.

At this time, when Zhang Yun said so, everyone couldn't help but think back, looking sad.

"If you want a screenwriter not to be bullied, you have to make the screenwriter have enough influence. And there are so many screenwriters in China, it is impossible for us to make everyone a great screenwriter. That's why Mr. Cheng Hao will I want to create a screenwriters association so that screenwriters can be affiliated with the screenwriters association and be blessed by the screenwriters association.

"The screenwriters association is like a new screenwriter. No one will care until there is no influence and representative works. If we go to the official registration of a screenwriters association that does not allow profit, this association is likely to be just an unknown official institution. . But if we register it as a brokerage company that specializes in providing resources for screenwriters and helping them defend their rights, then we can do a lot..." Zhang Yun looked at everyone and said clearly.

"I understand!" Guo Yuchi was the first to react and said, "You mean, if we set up a screenwriting agency, then we can let this agency gradually expand its influence until we have enough In terms of influence, it also means that we can safeguard the rights and interests of all screenwriters affiliated with our company, regardless of whether the screenwriter is a newcomer or an old man."

Zhang Yun nodded and said, "That's it."

"I understand too." Cheng Hao said, "Xiao Zhang told me before that if we were to become an association, we would have to pay for the money, and we would only get out of it. This... how does that word say Coming?"

"Generate power for love." Zhang Yun reminded.

"Yes, power generation for love." Cheng Hao continued, "This kind of power generation for love is fine for a period of time. Once the time is long, basically no one will stick to it. So Xiao Zhang said at the beginning, for the Screenwriters Association. In other words, the most important thing is the problem of money. If the official association is changed to a personal company... the problem of money will indeed be solved."

"More than that, the company can sponsor, participate in trading, and promote. If it is really done, the influence will become greater and greater!" Kuqi also said.

"It seems so." Meng Fei pondered.

"It's the same as the website we signed." Yu Liang said.

"This reversal is not bad," Ai Siyi said.

"But, you still haven't solved the initial problem?" At this moment, the Destroyer, who had been silent and kept silent, suddenly raised his hand.

Zhang Yun looked at him.

Rui Ren Tiren lowered his head slightly, as if he did not dare to look directly at Zhang Yun. He said blankly: "After talking for a long time, you still didn't say, the screenwriters ask the agent, how much does it cost?"

Indeed, Zhang Yun described the reasons for setting up a brokerage company for a long time there, but he never said how much the brokerage company would charge the screenwriter.

When this question came up, everyone's eyes were once again focused on Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun smiled and said: "This is what I want to say next-the operating mode and future development of our agency that serves screenwriters!"
