Chapter 200 System


    Beijing Film Studio.


    In the office, Wang Yang and deputy director Zhu Dexiong watched the news reports happily. Although Beijing Film Studio had never worked in Shanghai Film Studio, "Romance in Lushan" was considered a success. What''s more important was its weight in the hearts of the masses. .


    "Tai Chi" was released this year and was not included in the selection. What about next year?


    I dare not say anything about the Golden Rooster Award, but Gong Xue has already booked 80% of next year''s Hundred Flowers Award. This is called Lianzhuang.


    By the way, the reason why "Shaolin Temple" did not win the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers is because it is a Hong Kong film and did not participate in the selection. It only won a "Special Award for Outstanding Film" specially given by the Ministry of Culture.


    "Has the car been dispatched?"


    "We''ve sent him. He''ll be picked up in the afternoon. The welcome arrangements are also ready. There will be a celebration party tomorrow."


    "There are four golden flowers in our factory. Xiao Gong came from behind and became the number one all of a sudden. This brings glory to the factory, and we must express our gratitude... How about a raise in wages?"


    "How much will it go up?"


    "I don''t think it''s enough to even upgrade to three levels." Wang Yang said.


    "She came from the army. She only paid 56 yuan when she came in. She will reach the top after she upgrades to three levels. I don''t think so. It''s best to have a meeting to study it. You can''t make your own decision about a salary increase."


    Zhu Dexiong gave some advice and said: "It''s best to add Liu Xiaoqing and others and let them rise together so that Xiao Gong doesn''t stand out too much."


    "Okay, let''s have a meeting first."


    Wang Yang was helpless. There were advantages and disadvantages to being in a studio, so he understood that Chen Qi was the only one to speak out.


    …


    "Didi!"


    A car drove across the cracked asphalt road, passed the gate with a banner reading "Welcome the glorious return of "Lushan Love"", and stopped under the guest house.


    Chen Qi was sitting in the passenger seat, and four people were crowded in the back seat. Fortunately, there were no drunk driving checks these days. As soon as the door opened, Gong Xue, Wang Haowei, He Qing, and Tao Huimin got out of the car - Ji Chunhua took the bus by himself.


    "How come the banner is even hung up in the guest house?"


    When Wang Haowei looked up, she felt it was an exaggeration. Before she could do anything, a man came over in a hurry: "Director Wang! Xiao Gong! Why did you stop here? The factory leaders are waiting!"


    "What are you doing?"


    "I''m here to cleanse you from the wind and dust. The roast duck has been put on the table in the cafeteria."


    "this…"


    Gong Xue was in a dilemma, but Chen Qi didn''t care: "You go ahead, I''ll handle this... I won''t go, and I didn''t win the prize."


    He really didn''t care about such an occasion. He called Ge Chunyan down first and said, "This is your senior sister and your martial arts teacher. Follow her upstairs!"


    "oh!"


    He Qing had just arrived, so he didn''t dare to say anything, so he went up with Tao Huimin obediently.


    Ge Chunyan has been stationed at the guest house and is preparing for the filming. She played the role of Fenghualian in the first part and the Madonna of the Yellow Lotus in the second part. Because there are many fighting scenes, others are not as good as her.


    She arranged a room for the two of them and explained the matters, so let''s not mention them for now.


    Gong Xue went to socialize by himself, and Chen Qi returned to 302 after a long absence. He was tired from the train ride, so he had a good sleep first. When he woke up, it was already evening. He sat in a daze for a while, and suddenly heard a noise outside.


    "What''s wrong with you again?"


    "There are so many things happening when factories are broken down!"


    He opened the window and took a look. People gathered in twos and threes and walked angrily towards the main building. They were all photographers, artists, editors from the factory...


    "Hey, Lao Liang!"


    He spotted Liang Xiaosheng joining in the fun, waved his hand, and hurried downstairs to ask, "What''s going on?"


    "I heard that the factory was going to raise wages for the Four Golden Flowers. The news leaked out, and these old workers quit their jobs and started making trouble in the main building."


    "How much will it go up?"


    "Upgrade to level three, you can get thirty or forty yuan."


    "That''s a lot. Let''s go and watch the fun!"


    Chen Qi followed him to the main entrance of the main building. The leader was an old photographer in his fifties. He rolled a book into a loudspeaker and stood on the steps to shout.


    "In 1949, I was transferred to the Beijing Film Studio at the age of 20 and started working as a dramatist. I am 51 this year. I am diligent in my work, united and friendly to my colleagues, and consider myself a competent film worker.


    I get a salary of more than 70 yuan every month, which is relatively high in the factory, but this is earned through my seriousness and responsibility for the work and my many years of contribution to the factory. Their salary is much higher than mine, but I am convinced because their contribution is greater than mine, so they deserve such a high salary.


    but!


    Everyone has heard that the factory actually wants to upgrade the so-called four golden flowers to three levels in a row. I want to ask, why?


    Is the movie about individuals? Movies are a collective activity and everyone''s contribution. We just have different divisions of labor and there is no hierarchy. Why can they get a salary increase just for playing a role? This is not fair! "


    "Not fair! Not fair!"


    "Well said!"


    The crowd was excited.


    When the old photographer heard this, he became more energetic. He saw screenwriter Chen below and said loudly: "Comrade Chen Qi, do you agree with my point of view?"


    "You are absolutely right!"


    "I totally support it!"


    Chen Qi clapped his hands and applauded, extremely sincere.


    After all, why do celebrities earn so much money? He supports the views of veteran photographers, but it does not prevent him from giving everyone more money, such as increasing the subsidy from 1 yuan to 2 yuan.


    What he believes in is that everyone needs financial incentives to do work. I will give you corresponding rewards according to how much value you can create for me.


    What he hates are those lawless hot chicks in later generations who do dirty work behind the scenes through filming, such as Yang Tianbao who gets 80 million yuan, Sister Shuangzi who gets 160 million yuan, and Little Yellow Duck who gets 109 million yuan...


    Seeing Chen Qi''s support, the old photographer became even more agitated.


    It seems a bit funny, but he represents the interests of most people in the factory and has value.


    At this moment, upstairs.


    The four golden flowers were all there. They were called to the meeting, and they were suddenly surrounded.


    Gong Xue was very embarrassed. To put it bluntly, this incident happened because of her. Liu Xiaoqing was still beside her and said sarcastically: "Xiao Gong, why don''t you go down and talk to them? You have a lot of face and can appease everyone."


    "What face do I have?"


    "You won a double award, so of course you are proud of it. You just came back, catching up and celebrating."


    "These were done in the factory. I didn''t even know about it. What you said seems to be my fault. The awards I won were also given by the jury and the audience. Stop saying that!"


    Gong Xue didn''t know how to quarrel. This was the most serious refutation. He twisted around and left.


    Zhang Jinling followed to comfort him.


    The four golden flowers were obviously divided into two groups, which made her very jealous. Liu Xiaoqing snorted secretly: "What are you pretending to do? You just know how to climb on the bed. I can climb too. That kid doesn''t want it!"


    In the end, it was Zhu Dexiong who came down to explain in person.


    Talking about a salary increase is completely false. It doesn''t happen. Go back, go back!


    The old workers dispersed with satisfaction.


    …


    Seeing this, Chen Qi went up to the main building and went directly to the office. He knocked on the door with a "dong dong dong" sound and said with a smile: "Old factory director!"


    "Hey, Xiao Chen, you haven''t been here for a long time!"


    "I''m busy at this time, please forgive me!"


    Wang Yang stood by the window, staring downstairs with his hands behind his back. His face was gloomy at first, but his smile returned to his face when he saw him.


    "How''s the company doing?"


    "I signed Ji Chunhua and added an administrative staff. Now there are five people in total!"


    "Five?"


    Wang Yang burst into laughter, shook his head and said: "Cherish these days, this is actually the most relaxing time for you. When your company develops to the size of Beijing Film Studio, you will understand how I feel. Even salary increases are restricted. .


    You don’t want to come in, but what your company will become by then will not be up to you. "


    "We''ll talk about the future later. There''s always some room for maneuver."


    Chen Qi smiled and said: "There are so many people in the world, some are suitable for the system, some are not suitable, some should be outside, some should be inside, and some are better off appearing outside but actually inside... You have been in the system for decades, You should know better than me."


    "What''s the meaning of "It looks like it''s on the outside but it''s really on the inside?"


    "For example, Li Lianjie!"


    Chen Qi shrugged.
