Picture 192: Wang Jinhua's analysis

Whether Wang Jinhua's words are alarmist or not, this remains to be seen, but Wang Jinhua's vision is definitely not low, she started as a music agent, and she can mix step by step to today's well-known status in the industry, which is definitely not to be underestimated.

"I understand Xiao Zhou, you have your own plan for your own development, this is understandable, there are few people who can gain a foothold in the entertainment industry without the slightest plan, but you have a certain prejudice against the brokerage company, and feel that the constraints of the brokerage company are very large, which will limit your development, and I think you take the constraints of the company too seriously. Wang Jinhua was very calm, her tone was not hurried, and she did not want to be shocking and endless, but started from the brokerage company itself.

"The cooperation between the agency and the artist is not the cooperation between the employer and the employee, I prefer to see it as a model of taking what each needs and taking what it needs, according to your current level, the agency basically has no strength in restricting you, to put it bluntly, as long as you can bring benefits to the company, what reason does the company have to restrain you?"

"On the contrary, as long as you continue to develop, sooner or later you will become the most powerful group of people in the entertainment industry, and there are a lot of benefits in cooperating with you, the company can rely on you to get fame and benefits, and you can rely on the company to solve a lot of worries. Wang Jinhua said sincerely, her words were very straightforward, she didn't say any big truth, but the reality of the entertainment industry.

"You are now an actor, but also a producer, an investor, you invested in Jia Zhangke's "Xiao Wu" two years ago, and then invested in "National Anthem" and "Suzhou River", you have a very close relationship with the big domestic directors, and there is also a certain amount of financial support behind you, this is your advantage, and we value your talent and vision. ”

"But with all due respect, although you are doing well, if you don't have a strong company to help you solve your problems, your development will usher in a bottleneck and fall into a lag period. Wang Jinhua began to slowly analyze Zhou Bai.

"You have cooperation with Beijing Film Studio, but to put it bluntly, it's all a small fight, it's okay to make some independent films, once you enter the commercial film model, the difficulties you face will be much greater than you imagined, now although you are being watched, no one will deal with you, but once you are ready to compete with other film companies, all kinds of means will come up, do you have enough connections to solve this problem at that time?"

Wang Jinhua's expression is very calm, but the problem she said is indeed real, making some independent or small-cost films, basically sending them to foreign exhibitions, winning awards, and relying on overseas distribution to recover costs and make profits, but this model is destined to not last long, although the domestic film industry is sluggish at the box office, everyone knows that it will not always be like this, and people with vision have begun to work hard and make a good layout.

"Look at your current commercial development, how many endorsements have you received, and in addition to the directors you know, how many other directors have looked at you differently and sent you drama appointments? If you want to invest in a movie, how can you solve the distribution problem, and can you sure that you can pass the screening review? Have you established a good relationship with the domestic theater chain? When the movie is released, how many screens will you get? Are you capable of solving this problem of publicity and distribution?"

"Let's be more serious, if someone targets your movie, do you have enough connections to solve the trouble, and if you are deliberately suppressed and smeared by the media, how much power can you fight back?" Wang Jinhua threw out a series of questions, these problems are only ifs now, but no one can say that they will not become a reality one day.

Zhou Bai was silent, the problems Wang Jinhua said were all true, none of them were exaggerated, these were big problems, and they were also problems that he had to face if he wanted to bury his head in development, and Zhou Bai thought about it himself, and it was true that he was not capable of solving these problems at present.

Zhou Bai felt that his mouth was bitter, not that he didn't know that these problems existed, but that these problems could not be solved in a moment and a half, the operation of his career took time, and now his foundation is unstable, and he has not yet established a sufficient pattern.

"Sister Hua, these problems you said exist, and it is true that I am not capable of solving them at present, whether it is film publicity or media relations, or domestic distribution, I have not been able to deal with these problems, and there is no way to deal with them now. Zhou Bai exhaled softly, gave Yuan Yu, who was worried on the side, a comforting look, and said calmly.

"Xiao Zhou, Sister Hua has always been friends with people, I didn't say this on purpose to sign you, for young domestic actors, you are the only one, but your qualifications in this circle are still shallow, and you may not be so clear about the doorways inside, I hope you don't blame Sister Hua for speaking bluntly. Wang Jinhua said sincerely.

"No, Sister Hua, you are telling the truth, I can't thank you too late, how can I blame you? Zhou Bai said with a smile, he is not the kind of stupid person who has a little temper and thinks that Lao Tzu should be the first in the world and disdains other people's opinions because he has a little talent.

"Let's go back to Huayi, the brokerage business is the first time we have integrated, everything is formalized, and Huayi's own film investment is deeply integrated, don't look at Huayi's first two years as a small workshop-style approach, but many things have been laid out, at least in the area of personal connections, it is not something you can compare. Wang Jinhua said.

"Now we have established Taihe Film Company, with the support of a large amount of money behind it, and officially set up a production department, a distribution department, a publicity department, an overseas department, etc., and we have a layout in the field of production, and we also have a good relationship with the media. ”

"You are a very unique young man, you are unique among the people I have met, you have an excellent vision, you have enough courage, and you have excellent talent, I believe that you will not be willing to be just an ordinary actor, your future is limitless. Wang Jinhua glanced at Zhou Bai deeply, and then said solemnly.

"So we contact you not so much to solicit you, but to invest in you, we may not give you as good as other companies in terms of your contract treatment, but we do not make any restrictions on you, this is our sincerity. Wang Jinhua once again threw out a condition that Zhou Bai could not refuse.

What does Zhou Bai lack the most now? Of course, he lacks a company that can help him handle all kinds of relationships, but if he establishes a new film company, there is absolutely no way to do it, but Hua Yi has this ability, and most importantly, this agency does not set up anything for him.

"I believe that such courtesy is not obtained out of thin air, so what are Huayi's conditions?" Zhou Bai was not excited by Wang Jinhua's words, but asked quietly.

Yes, to give such unprecedented treatment, then what are the conditions for Huayi?
