Chapter 0129: Zhou Xiyan's Ambition (Ask for Subscription)

"Anyway, you can contact me about anything. ”

"Okay, thank you, Sister Yang. ”

Standing in front of Ji Ming was a woman with shoulder-length short hair, named Yang Ruyi, Xitian's senior agent assistant, and now Ji Ming's actual agent. Ji Ming is very satisfied with Yang Ruyi's name, he is a humanoid koi, and his agent is called Ruyi, how do you look at it, it is a good sign.

Xitian's brokerage model is broker + manager, which is the world's largest brokerage company - CAA in the United States.

However, in the domestic environment, the concept of managers is not yet popular, and sometimes it becomes an upper and lower level broker. However, within Xitian, the relationship between the two is not simply that of superiors and subordinates, but that there is a difference in the division of labor.

Zhou Xiyan personally served as Ji Ming's manager, and she was also Wu Bo's manager, in charge of the artistic development route, negotiating key resources, and so on. Yang Ruyi, as Ji Ming's agent, is responsible for all transactional contacts, general public relations and publicity, and even some things in life, which are also within her work.

Regarding being assigned to Ji Ming on the eve of promotion, Yang Ruyi was quite satisfied.

Xitian signed 5 post-95 artists, among which Ji Ming's appearance is the best, not to mention, Zhou Xiyan personally served as Ji Ming's manager, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.

After the two of them briefly communicated for a while, Yang Ruyi thought about Ji Ming's resume materials, and felt that he had picked up a treasure.

Excellent ability, sincerity, high emotional intelligence, and a B-number in mind...... I don't know how much trouble I can save, those who collect wild road stars, maybe the artists have entered the police station, he doesn't know why, and there are some people whose private lives are extremely chaotic, so they have to work part-time as a bustard and aftermath.

Tired.

"Let's go, I'll take you back to school. ”

"No—"

Yang Ruyi interrupted him with a smile: "Ji Ming, you don't have to be polite to me, picking you up and dropping you off is my job, at least before you have an assistant team, this is definitely something I need to do, within my bounds." ”

"No, I'm going to pick up my girlfriend. ”

Girl! Friend!

Yang Ruyi wanted to retract what he had just thought - what is worry-free or not, save your numb heart.

"Do you have a girlfriend?" Yang Ruyi controlled his tone, a post-95 Chinese star, that's different. For example, Ji Ming's younger brother Hu Xu disclosed that he was in love a few days ago, which shocked the hot search. If this is placed in the era of the Four Heavenly Kings, many people will have to jump off the building.

"That's right. She has a performance today, I went to pick her up for a meal together, who asked Mr. Zhou not to invite me to dinner again. ”

Performance!

Insiders?

Peer?

Yang Ruyi thought of countless developments in an instant: "Is she in Chinese opera?" or is she already working?"

"Hahaha. ”

“...... What are you laughing at. ”

Ji Ming had already discovered Yang Ruyi's ups and downs, he wanted to observe this agent, the relationship between the star and the agent has always been a game, if one side is too weak, there will be problems, and if the struggle is too strong, it is the best state when both sides are strong and measured.

Yang Ruyi's performance, for the time being, Ji Ming was still satisfied, did not swallow the words, nor was he startled, trying to deal with this unexpected situation gently.

"She is a student, a sophomore at the Central Conservatory of Music, studying violin, not in the entertainment industry. Ji Ming took his mobile phone and called an online car-hailing: "Sister Yang, I won't be polite to you about work, let's discuss life matters, okay?"

What can Yang Ruyi do, she can only nod.

I'm so stupid, really, I just knew that Ji Ming was a person with high emotional intelligence and ability, but I didn't know that such a person would be difficult to do......

......

"How is it?" Zhou Xiyan loosened the blinds and looked at Zhang Fan: "Yang Ruyi and Ji Ming, at most, this is it." ”

She stretched out her two hands, spread them flat, and compared them at the same height.

"It's because I don't know enough about Ji Ming. But this doesn't explain why you give him such a good treatment, even if it's divided, five or five becomes four or six, but 3 years is really too short, especially when he is still a student, he can't work hard for two years, your gambling is too big. ”

Zhang Fan disagreed from the beginning.

No matter how great Ji Ming's potential is, no matter how optimistic Zhou Xiyan is about him, but rules are rules, and it is really incomprehensible to challenge the rules, especially unnecessary challenges.

"Zhang Fan, when we first established Xitian, what was our goal?"

"CAA in China. ”

Zhou Xiyan nodded: "But we soon found that we were not accustomed to the water and soil, and we continued to adjust, and we gradually came to today's situation." But I've been wondering, is there really a problem with the goal of making a Chinese version of CAA, or is there something wrong with our understanding of it, and I think it's the latter more and more.

We always thought that the core thing of CAA was the 'agent packaging' system, so we signed a lot of artists, made film and television, and made scripts from the beginning...... If you want to directly replicate CAA and take care of all aspects of the movie, as long as it involves the work of people. But later I found that it didn't work, so I switched back to a simple brokerage company.

But in fact, I now feel more and more that the core of CAA should be their ability to attract superstars - Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Spielberg, Cameron, is the business atmosphere in the United States weakened by China? Why can these artists always choose to cooperate with CAA? This is the answer I want to find. ”

Zhang Fan was silent for a while, of course he was familiar with everything about CAA.

The CAA's signings are very lenient, with a commission of 10% – a treatment that only the top superstars in China have. Contracts are generally signed for no more than two years, or even one year, and there are many of them, and they come and go freely.

They attract artists by providing services, resources, opportunities, rather than relying on contracts.

"As Mr. Zhou said, this is China, and Xitian is far from the ability of CAA to provide resources. Three years later, Ji Ming is gone after becoming famous, what can we do?"

"Why should I do it? In three years, he is leaving, at least we can sign a loose contract, and let him receive our brokerage services, film and television recommendations, and actor programs first...... And so on, as long as he doesn't open a brokerage company himself, there is a lot of room for cooperation. ”

Zhang Fan accepted Zhou Xiyan's attempt.

"After all, you still trust Ji Ming. ”

"I trust myself. ”

Zhang Fan smiled, picked up the script of "Ah Lang's Far Place" on the table, flipped through it casually, and happened to see Li Ah Lang changing his name to "Liu Erqiu" to his student Liu Erdan, hahaha: "In your imagination, what will Ji Ming be like in the future?"

"I don't imagine him as he is, but the higher he goes, the better. I hope that he will have greater value and significance to Xitian than Wu Bo in the future. Limited partners, partners, senior partners, top partners, no problem, I am willing to give as much as he can get. ”

"Hey, but he's just a young actor now - well, the first play is still in my hands, and life and death are uncertain. ”

Zhou Xiyan shook his head: "It can be Ji Ming, Chu Xiao, Gao Ting...... In short, these young actors are all seeds, but you can't deny that Ji Ming's quality is much better. ”
