The door opened, and the mother came in with tea and fruit. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Thank you, Auntie," Shen Manni quickly got up and thanked, "Don't be so polite." ”
"It's okay, you're Qihua's agent, and his business has bothered you. Mother smiled softly.
"Where? He's very smart, but I'm taken care of a little more by him, don't worry, I'll do my best to help him." ”
"Then please. Mother smiled and left the room.
"You have a good mother. ”
"yes, that's what I think too. Lin Qihua smiled, "So, what work do you want to discuss?"
"A lot of things. Shen Manni said helplessly, "Years ago, I had a lot of unfinished things on hand, because of the awards ceremony and concert, a lot of progress was delayed, and then your popularity increased a lot, many businesses have contacted me, hoping to cooperate with you, like the script in your hand, invited songs and the like, it is necessary for you to refer to it together and make a travel arrangement." ”
"Okay, one by one. ”
"First of all, it's a matter of endorsement," Shen Manni said, "With the rise of your popularity, the number of fans has skyrocketed, and your commercial value has also been highlighted, many businesses are interested in borrowing your current fame to reach cooperation, especially after you won the Best Song of the Year award, the number of inquiries has skyrocketed several times, I think it is necessary to negotiate with you to see how to solve it?"
"Even if there are a lot of endorsement invitations, most of them are petty fights, right?" Lin Qihua said as he knocked on the table.
"Yes," Shen Manni replied while looking at the information in her hand, "Most of them are insincere invitations, just want to pick up dead chickens and earn a wave of popularity." ”
"All of these are crossed out," Lin Qihua said decisively, "Our popularity is not easy to come by, we can't consume it at will, and we can't be put on a vulgar and rough name, for a little money, it's not worth it." ”
Shen Manni nodded, and directly threw aside half of the information in her hand, "For the rest, there are also most invitations, one is that the merchant's reputation is too small, and the other is not suitable for endorsement, so I will remove it too, right?"
"Good. ”
"In the end, there are only a few that can be considered. ”
"Is there an invitation to the Yunlong costume?" Lin Qihua remembered Liao Qingfang's words and asked.
"Yes," Shen Manni is relatively familiar with the information, "I am listed in the top priority ranks, our current popularity, has not been favored by international brands, and instead consider the first domestic brand Yunlong, which is also a good choice, clothing, is the first choice for artist endorsement, is the connection point between the entertainment industry and the fashion industry, the endorsement value is 20 million two-year contract, which is the value of an ordinary first-line star, I personally think it can be considered acceptable." After two years, we should have the opportunity to get in touch with international first-line brands. ”
"I think so too, so let's settle it. ”
"Okay," Shen Manni made a mark, and continued, "The rest are all invitations to food and drinks, and they are not very famous, nor are they small. ”
"I think it's better to take less of this kind of endorsement," Lin Qihua frowned, "Clothing or something, I can wear it every day, it is suitable or not, I know it myself, and I will not deceive fans, as for food and drink, it has always been a very sensitive topic, and I don't eat or drink these things myself, whether it's good or not, I don't know at all, if something goes wrong, fans won't think I'm okay, this kind of consumption of popularity to make fans money is not advisable." ”
"Well, if you say that, I agree. Shen Manni spread her hands, "In short, in the future, focus on big brands and things you can really use, and don't think about other places." ”
"Yes, for example, vehicles, if Phantom is willing to invite me to be an endorsement, then I am happy," Lin Qihua said with a smile, "Popularity and fans are not easy to come by, they can't be consumed indiscriminately, and they are prone to accidents, and the gains outweigh the losses, our purpose is to try to put it on fashion clothing, jewelry, high-end goods, etc., I have proposed with Sister Qin that the company open its own store and officially sell artist-related items online and offline to ensure quality and create a high-quality service platform." ”
"I see. Shen Manni looked at Lin Qihua with apologetic eyes, "It's that I think it's too superficial, signing this kind of contract too early is our own loss, and we have lowered our own grade for no reason, and put a certain label, other big brands will not be willing to sign contracts with us in the future, and we should take a long-term view." ”
"That's what I thought, too. ”
"Then I know how to do it. Shen Manni smiled, "The second thing, in addition to the invitation already in your hands, I have received a lot of requests for inviting songs, many of them are first-line stars, and there are also many companies that are ready to shoot TV series and movies, and they have also sent scripts to invite songs, how to deal with this?"
"If you invite the song directly, just refuse it, if you don't know it, you don't know what the situation is, how to create? I still have a lot of debts on hand, as for the script, I'll just stay and read it slowly, if you think it's appropriate, you can cooperate, and if you don't, forget it. ”
"Okay, then I'll put these here. Shen Manni spread a stack of scripts on the table.
"After the Spring Festival, I will go to Xiangjiang with Sister Ling. Lin Qihua told Shen Manni.
"Sister Ling is really going to make a comeback?" Shen Manni said excitedly.
"It's hard to say, but, eight or nine is not far from ten, it depends on whether she can successfully win the role of a movie. ”
"That's great, I'll arrange it. ”
"Okay, what's the matter?"
"In the first half of the year, are there any big plans?"
"The company's inaugural celebration in April is the top priority," Lin Qihua said while thinking, "The goal for the first half of the year is naturally a semi-annual rating, so it is necessary to release one or two albums." ”
"Two of them, one is to sort out the previous songs, and the other is to try to be new songs, so it's better to match. ”
"It's fine. ”
"What about variety shows?" Shen Manni asked, "In the current entertainment industry, variety shows are one of the best ways to publicize. ”
"Let's see the opportunity. ”
"I think there are a few good programs that are quite suitable for you. Shen Manni took out a piece of information, "In fact, many variety shows have sent you invitations, after all, you are popular now, and they all hope to let you join." ”
"What's going on?"
"I probably divided it into several categories, the first category is singing, being a mentor, being a mystery singer, etc., mainly singing, I don't think this will help you much, because "Singer" is already the top, and other ways are novel and ever-changing. ”
"Hmm. Lin Qihua deeply agreed, "The same is not interesting." ”
"The second category is outdoor challenges, which are simply the categories of playing physical strength, abusing celebrities, and being funny. I don't think this is suitable for you, although the ratings are very high, but your character goes to the show, and the chance of being a mascot is relatively large, and it doesn't help you shape your image, after all, you don't take the funny route, and it's not bad to be a guest occasionally. ”
"In this way, most of the show has been killed. ”
"Personally, I think that you are suitable for interactive and warm programs, such as family life and love, which can play a very big role in the fullness of your image, and it also happens to give full play to your good cooking skills and good temperament. ”
"It's impossible for me to take care of the children, right?" Lin Qihua smiled bitterly, "There is really no need for singing, there are many outdoor programs, and they are also very miscellaneous, so you can't choose one." ”
"Okay, I'll give you some options to choose from. Shen Manni nodded, reluctantly agreeing with him.
……
On the eighth day of the new year, I officially started to work, and Galaxy Entertainment also started the new year's work on this day.
Yu Fengqin announced the latest arrangement, that is, to move, the office location is officially moved to the new Galaxy Building, both the space and the facilities have a new look.
The plan of the year lies in the spring, and Galaxy Entertainment has set sail again.
At this time, Lin Qihua and "Yunlong" clothing officially signed a two-year endorsement contract, Lin Qihua got a generous endorsement fee, and the domestic fashion industry for the first time had intimate contact, the incidental harvest is that the original prepared clothing room, all stuffed with "Yunlong" clothing for him to prepare clothing, and what he has to do is to wear "Yunlong" clothing all year round to attend various activities, and when needed, participate in necessary activities and shoot advertisements.
"It's like a white wolf with empty gloves. "It doesn't take much to get such superior conditions and income without paying much price, which makes Lin Qihua feel a little incredible.
"This is the reason why everyone in the entertainment industry wants to be popular, fans and popularity determine whether you are popular with businesses or not, and the treatment is very different. ”
After the signing, Lin Qihua participated in the first all-staff meeting after Galaxy Entertainment entered the new building, Yu Fengqin and He Li respectively laid out the company's development plan, various departments have been expanded, and capable employees have been reused, such as the original low status of publicity, outreach, planning and other departments, have improved their status and played a more important role.
The company's training camp has been expanded, and many new people have come in for training. Under Lian Yuling's strong request, she did not pull out the seedlings to help them grow, and let the trainees who have not yet matured make their debuts in advance, but in the future, it is necessary to increase the training of the trainees to prompt them to meet the requirements of their debut as soon as possible, after all, there are still too few artists in the company.
With the introduction of talents from all walks of life, Galaxy Entertainment has developed rapidly, and it only needs to straighten out the internal relationship and establish the artist echelon, and it will burst out with amazing combat effectiveness.
After that, Lin Qihua and Lian Yuling, who stepped down as the head of the training department and became an ordinary artist again, flew directly to Xiangjiang with their respective agents to meet new challenges.
