Cele Mai Bune 3 Filme despre Business

February 16th, 2009 by Dragos Manac

"You call yourself a salesman, you son of a bitch?"

Ai o afacere? Vrei sa vinzi? Vrei sa stii cum se fac banii? Sunt mii de lucruri pe care trebuie sa le inveti, insa multe din ele se gasesc in filmele din colectia mea personala, sugestiv denumita Cele Mai Bune 3 Filme despre Business ;-)

Nu le-ai vazut pana acum? Daca ai ratat vreunul din ele nu pierde timpul, cat inca nu este prea tarziu! Cumpara-l sau downloadeaza-l si vizioneaza-l, ASAP. Urmeaza topul, cronologic:

#1 Wall Street (1987). IMDB. Amazon. Torrent.

cu Michael Douglas si Charile Sheen, regia Oliver Stone.

Citatele mele preferate:

I’m talking about liquid. Rich enough to have your own jet. Rich enough not to waste time. Fifty, a hundred million dollars, buddy. A player. Or nothing.

The richest one percent of this country owns half our country’s wealth, five trillion dollars. One third of that comes from hard work, two thirds comes from inheritance, interest on interest accumulating to widows and idiot sons and what I do, stock and real estate speculation. It’s bullshit. You got ninety percent of the American public out there with little or no net worth. I create nothing. I own. We make the rules, pal. The news, war, peace, famine, upheaval, the price per paper clip. We pick that rabbit out of the hat while everybody sits out there wondering how the hell we did it. Now you’re not naive enough to think we’re living in a democracy, are you buddy? It’s the free market. And you’re a part of it. You’ve got that killer instinct. Stick around pal, I’ve still got a lot to teach you.

If you’re not inside, you’re *outside*!

#2 Glengarry Glen Ross (1992). IMDB. Amazon. Torrent.

cu Al Pacino, Kevin Spacey, Alec Baldwin, Jack Lemon, Ed Harris, regia James Foley

Citatele mele preferate

A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Closing. Always be closing, always be closing. A-I-D-A. Attention, Interest, Decision, Action. Attention – Do I have you attention? Interest – Are you interested? I know you are, because it’s fuck or walk. You close or you hit the bricks. Decision – Have you made your decision for Christ? And Action.

WHAT YOU’RE HIRED FOR, is to help us… does that seem clear to you? TO HELP US, not to… FUCK-US-UP… to help those who are going out there to try to earn a living… You fairy. You company man.

What’s your name?
Fuck you. That’s my name.  You know why, mister? ‘Cause you drove a Hyundai to get here tonight, I drove an eighty thousand dollar BMW. *That’s* my name.

#3 Boiler Room (2000). IMDB. Amazon. Torrent.

cu Giovanni Ribisi, Vin Diesel, Ben Affleck, regia Ben Younger

Citatele mele preferate

I read this article a while back, that said that Microsoft employs more millionaire secretary’s that any other company in the world. They took stock options over Christmas bonuses. It was a good move. I remember there was this picture, of one of the groundskeepers next to his Ferrari. Blew my mind. you see shit like that, and it just plants seeds, makes you think its possible, even easy. And then you turn on the TV, and there’s just more of it. The $87 Million lottery winner, that kid actor that just made 20 million o his last movie, that internet stock that shot through the roof, you could have made millions if you had just gotten in early, and that’s exactly what I wanted to do: get in. I didn’t want to be an innovator any more, i just wanted to make the quick and easy buck, i just wanted in. The Notorious BIG said it best: "Either you’re slingin’ crack-rock, or you’ve got a wicked jump-shot." Nobody wants to work for it anymore. There’s no honor in taking that after school job at Mickey Dee’s, honor’s in the dollar, kid. So I went the white boy way of slinging crack-rock: I became a stock broker.

There’s an important phrase that we use here, and think it’s time that you all learned it. Act as if. You understand what that means? Act as if you are the fucking President of this firm. Act as if you got a 9" cock. Okay? Act as if.

And there is no such thing as a no sale call. A sale is made on every call you make. Either you sell the client some stock or he sells you a reason he can’t. Either way a sale is made, the only question is who is gonna close? You or him? Now be relentless, that’s it, I’m done.

Boiler Room e dedicat in special domnilor de la Capital Group care ma suna mereu sa-mi vanda aur, petrol, actiuni, farfurii zburatoare samd. si rezista abuzului verbal.

Astea sunt. Cum, inca nu le-ai vazut?! Ai 24 de ore la dispozitie pentru a le gasi si 72 pentru a le viziona!

Lasand gluma, aceste filme ofera o explicatie buna a crizei financiare actuale si a modului in care functioneaza lacomia in afaceri.

    puteai sa le recomanzi si fara sa promovezi pirateria :)

    R: Da, de asta am pus link la Amazon.

    sau sa spui mai multe despre ele, pentru cei care nu au nici 1.30 h de pierdut pt a urmari un film.

    R: … click pe IMDB

    Cam simplista concluzia lacomie=criza, opusul lacomiei ar fi refuzul opririi din ‘drum’, ceea ce ar duce la stagnare.

    R: … da, simplista.

  2. alk

    Wall Street cu Charlie Sheen ;)

    R: LOL. Da, The kid. Modific. Multumesc.

  3. picciu

    Ce spui de un top al cartilor business ? Prima propunere Funky business !

  4. radu

    Bai si pe mine m-au sunat la greu astia de la Capital Group :) Cat de amuzanti erau :D Uite, m-ai binedispus :)

  5. fLoreign

    Ai uitat unul esential: Other People’s Money. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102609/
    Optional: Rogue Trader http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0131566/ . Bazat pe scrierile lui Nick Leeson, acest precursor al lui Jerome Kerviel.

    Si daca tot ti-a placut Glengarry Glen Ross, de ce sa nu pomenim si de The Big Kahuna? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0189584/

    R: Era top 3 :) dar recomandariletale sunt ff bune.

  6. Flo

    Uite un film super care insa prezinta realitatea: Startup.com
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0256408/

    R: Absolut fabulos, l-am recomandat la toate conferintele la care am vorbit.

  7. ek

    ca veni vorba:

    un film mai recent despre care s-ar putea sa nu fi auzit inca: AUGUST cu Josh Hartnett. E despre “august 2001 dot com bubble burst”.

  9. Silviu

    Dragos, s-a nimerit la fix articolul tau. Aseara aveam in plan sa ma “culturalizez” pe partea de business si nu prea eram in starea potrivita pentru citit. Asa ca am “achizitionat fulger” filmul Glengarry Glen Ros. Foarte bun! Excelente momentele de “hard American selling”… Mai raman 2 pe lista.

  10. cos

    Multumesc pentru recomandari. Mai ales ca au venit la pachet cu transfer de 1-4Mb/s la torente. Dintr-un motiv ciudat se pare ca romanii au devenit brusc interesati de filmele astea :)

  11. Creative marketing

    Doua din trei filme le vazusem, sunt intr-adevar instructive. De Glengarry Glen Ross fac precis rost de la un prieten, care mi-l recomandase mai demult.

    Uite asa mai invatam si noi de la altii :)

  12. krossfire

    Glengarry mi-a placut mai mult pentru ca pregateste cumva pentru tensiunea din lumea afacerilor nu neaparat pentru sfaturile sau discursul lui Ben.

  13. Concediaza-ti seful!

    nu neaparat despre business, dar unul din cele mai bune filme despre Management si Leadership este `Master and Commander` cu Russel Crowe

    filmul este practic o lectie, un curs de management & leadership, de la inceput pana la capat

    succes :)

  14. Concediaza-ti seful!

    `boiler room` mi-a fost recomandat chiar de un prieten foarte apropiat, care de asta s-a ocupat timp de vreo 4-5 ani, lucrand in tari precum Malayesia, Thailanda, Filipine si vanzand diverse `servicii` si `oportunitati` financiare prin telefon in tari precum SUA, Australia, Anglia etc

    ceea ce se prezinta in film este crudul adevar

    succes :)

  15. Concediaza-ti seful!

    sugera cineva ca ar fi oportuna si realizarea unei liste de propuneri si cu carti de business

    subscriu 100% :)

  16. Adrian

    Ar mai fi si The Pursuit of Happyness (da, se scrie cu Y numele filmului). Nu e neaparat doar business, dar pastreaza o idee foarte buna.
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0454921/

  17. Concediaza-ti seful!

    Adrian,

    subscriu

    desi cam `cheesy` si nu neaparat de Business, ci mai degraba motivational, `The Pursuit of Happyness` merita vazut

    succes :)

  18. Leru

    Un film foarte bun despre realitatea mai putin promovata din mediile de business este “El metodo”

    Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oexVQPQNGS4
    IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0427582/
    Download: http://torrentz.com/search?q=el+metodo

    mi-am luat si eu unul din filme.. cred ca o sa imi placa :D

  20. Gica

    m-am uitat la wall street.. a fost frumos.. invat si eu despre business :D

  21. Rodiq » recomandarile

    [...] sa iau lucrurile din alta perspectiva, am gasit pe manac.ro un top al filmelor “de business“, le-am vazut, si le-am inteles recunosc de 10 ori mai bine decat le-as fi inteles acum 5 ani [...]

  22. Pr0cuSt

    Multumesc celor care au contribuit la acest top. Apreciez !!! Va recomand si eu ceva: Zeitgeist si Zeigeist Addendum

    R: Mult prea conspirationiste :)

  23. parolah

    ce lume.. ce alta lume aici… ce vartej… sensul giratoriu. voi sunteti acolo. aveti prioritate. eu stau si ma uit ..si astept
