In fact, this situation is not surprising, but also for various reasons.

I won’t talk about the historical reasons. The article is too long and there is no point in introducing it here. The key is that the development is unusually rapid, which leads to the management level not keeping up with this development speed at all.

Take movies as an example. Twenty years ago, there were not many movies with an annual investment of over one million yuan. Ten years ago, blockbusters of ten million were considered ordinary. Five years ago, blockbusters with an annual investment of over 50 million, over 80 million, and even occasionally over 100 million yuan appeared. But now, if the investment in blockbusters is only over 100 million yuan, the film company is embarrassed to go out and say hello.

Therefore, as the backbone of the entertainment industry, they basically just graduated from work twenty years ago, and taught small workshops to shoot, and of course they also learned small workshops. They had never experienced any scientific management, and they didn't understand and didn't know.

This has led to habits becoming natural, and they don’t think anything is wrong at all. It used to be a good thing to do this, but now there is no problem with doing this, so why change it?

Even if there are box office losses sometimes, these people basically believe that this is a quality issue of the film, or if it is a cast issue, promotional and distribution issue, etc., they have never considered the management of the crew.

To be a joke, if Huo Dong didn't appear here, it might continue like this. Until a genius producer in management appears by chance, and he needs to have enough influence, this situation will slowly change.

Of course, there are some other reasons. For example, the director's desire to control is too strong. Since China is the chief director system, the director himself is the first person in charge of managing the crew.

However, are there any management majors or producer majors in the three major art schools? There is no such thing as a management major? To put it bluntly, I just want to study, but I can’t even find relevant elective courses. Therefore, in terms of management, these directors are all wild and all laymen. Especially if there are management talents to help, these directors will basically try their best to oppose: "I was holding a bag and stuffed cash on my back, so I didn’t shoot movies anyway? Why do you make a point?"

This is even more so for producers. China has no professional producers who have systematically learned management. They are either supervisors hired by investors or have a network of relationships, and can attract investment and sell films to run awards. Indeed, for producers, attracting investment and selling films to run awards is important, but isn’t it important to assist in good management?

This leads to a considerable backwardness in management. Especially if you are still confused and don’t pay attention to it, many people in the circle don’t even have such a concept.

The other is... the problem of intentional indulgence. It is undeniable that the entertainment industry is where huge pits are born. If it is really managed in an orderly manner, how can I cheat those bosses? How can I make me happy to make money? Just a fool! Artistic! How vulgar is talking about money?

So, when Huo Dong, the management elite, came into play, its role was to achieve immediate results. In a way, it was simply a dimensional reduction blow!

"Brother Cheng, these things need your signature. This is the process of the four shots in the afternoon; this is the schedule of the timetable; this is the list of personnel and equipment needed in the night scene; this is the equipment inspection and maintenance cycle chart..."

"Oh? I understand these forms. What are the functions of these forms?"

"The main thing is to have a clear idea. For example, this equipment checks the maintenance cycle diagram. What you keep here is the total folder, you can index the figure to check whether they work. The equipment personnel are holding a sub-table in their hands, and they must record whether the various equipment is intact. The two tables must correspond one by one to prove that their work has been completed. In this way, there will be no problems that are discovered before shooting. If you need to repair, repair, and if you need to replace it. However, Director Ye, you may be busy shooting, and this work can be entrusted to me or other teachers to complete. But you must have first-hand information. This is also..."

"Very good, your idea is good. I'm a signature here, right?"

"Yes, Brother Cheng. It's here. I have announced the regulations to them that if you don't have your signature in the future, you will be fined if you forget to record and forge records, or have a heavy fine if you have any problems."

"That's right. It's time to leave this to you first."

"Thank you, Brother Cheng. Thank you for giving me a chance."

"Haha. Don't be polite. Dongzi, when you have time later, you will tell me in detail. I also need to learn more about some things."

"No problem, Brother Cheng. I will sort out this set of things in the future and I will send them all to you. However, I have explored these myself. I have insufficient experience and may have many omissions. I hope other teachers will add them in the future."

"You are determined. Go and do it first!"

"Thank you, Brother Cheng."

...

"Sister Hong, this is tomorrow's rehearsal. You need to put on makeup for 47 actors. But this watch may be a bit taken for granted because I don't know much about makeup. Can you ask you how many kinds of makeup are there? Basically how much time is it? Is it difficult?"

"Xiao Dongzi, don't you give me any attitude if you steal the stolen master? Hehe."

"Why, there are cigarettes, chocolates and snacks there? Just watch and give them a point. I know that you are soft-hearted, so I will pester you. You are my own sister, help me with my brother, right?"

"Haha, my little mouth is so sweet. Well, I don't have much time, so I will just say it. How much I remember depends on your understanding."

"Thank you, Sister Hong! Thank you!"

...

"Brother Daniu, you have a problem with the laying of the track. I found in the morning that when you shot this position, you were a little reluctant to push it in the end. Although the shot was still successful, it was easy to have shaking and reshooting. I would like to ask you, are there any other ways to improve it?"

"Dongzi, don't talk nonsense if you don't know. The track is just a bit short, and there isn't even any. How should we lay it?"

"Then why didn't you say it when you received the notice yesterday?"

"It didn't happen when the filming started, but it still doesn't happen today. If you ask me who will I ask? Later we all solved it with local methods."

"Then forget it, I will not blame you for the past. I will send someone to ask the base if there is a borrowing track here. If not, I can go out and borrow and buy new ones."

"What's so troublesome? I said Dongzi, we use local methods to save money, is there any problem with this savings?"

"Brother Daniu, don't be angry. It's not that you can't use native methods. But you always understand that sharpening your knife will not delay the chopping of wood. Is it not good to use some? You can waste five minutes here, and he can only force ten minutes there, and the time will be long. Although it takes money to borrow things, it will be finished one day in advance, and this amount of money will be back long ago!"

"Then it's up to you. Of course I'll welcome you if you have something to use!"
