"Phantom Agency?" The Xie family's brokerage company?
Zhang Zhang lifted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said with a smile: "To be precise, it is the Xingcan Studio of the Phantom Agency under the Championship Group." At the invitation of the general manager of the Phantom Company, I am now the head of the studio. β
Zhang Zhang and Xingcan Studio, these two words are linked, and Chen Yin finally knows why he feels that Zhang Zhang is familiar. One of the four ace agents five years later, the agent Zhang Zhang, who is often jokingly said to steal the lens of his artists.
Chen Yin further remembered that in his previous life, it was about this time that Zhang Zhang left his original agency and established Xingcan Studio by himself, and cultivated a group of outstanding artists in a short period of time, making Xingcan Studio a unique existence independent of the two giants in the entertainment industry, Ultrasound and Huaxing, within five years, and was praised as the first star studio by the outside world. Xingcan Studio was established as in the previous life, but it was established earlier, and the original independent studio is now under the name of Phantom Agency.
Zhang Zhang said with a smile: "Chen Yin, with the greatest sincerity, I invite you to come to the Phantom Studio. I assure you that the resources I can provide to you, maybe not the best, but will definitely get better and better. After saying this extremely encouraging sentence, he smiled and stretched out his right hand to Chen Yin: "I don't know if I have the honor to work hard with you." β
Although considering Xie Ershao's uncertain factor, at this stage, it is indeed impossible for Chen Yin to find better conditions than this, so he held Zhang Zhang's hand without any suspense.
"It's an honor."
Although the actor has basically been decided, the rest of the procedure still has to be completed, and after Chen Yin came out, the staff read out the next number: "No. 14, prepare." β
"It's me." Jiang Yan and Chen passed by as they passed by, and showed him a smug smile.
"Acquaintance?" Zhang Zhang followed behind Chen Yin, squinted at Jiang Yan's back, and asked Chen Yin.
Chen Yin smiled faintly and said, "An alumnus." β
"Or should I ask another question-" Zhang Zhang and Chen Yin walked side by side to Honghui Film and Television, "You had a holiday with him?" The way he looks at you is not friendly. β
Chen Yin thought about it for a moment and said, "I'm sure that today is the first time we met. β
It seems that it is the other party's unilateral reason, Zhang Zhang wrote down this matter, and planned to go back to check the other party's origin.
On the way back to the company, Zhang Zhang briefly introduced the current situation of the studio to Chen Yin: "I forcibly terminated the contract with the previous company on the single reverse, so the artist I brought before didn't come over, and now the whole studio is just one artist." Our studio is hanging under the Phantom Company, but in fact, it is directly subordinate to the general manager, that is to say, the financial personnel of the studio can be handled independently by directly bypassing the company's department manager. β
Xingcan Studio has the absolute autonomy of the greatest Cheng dΓΉ, which is the condition that Xie Li made when he hired Zhang Zhang, and it was this condition that made Zhang Zhang refuse the invitations from the two companies, Ultrasound and Huaxing.
Chen Yin nodded, and Zhang Zhang continued: "The studio has just been established, so I will be busy in the past two days, and after going to the company to sign the contract for a while, I will send an assistant to go back to the school with you, complete some of the procedures that should be done in advance, and then send you to the hotel where you have settled." β
After signing the contract, he is an official artist, and it is obviously not suitable to live in the school again, but fortunately, Chen Yin has experienced it once, and there is no resistance to these things, but there is one thing, he plans to communicate with Zhang Zhang in advance.
"I want my assistant to come to work as usual...... I need to keep my private space. β
What this means is that I don't want my assistant to move in with me and take care of me. Zhang Zhang was a little surprised, seeing that the company had arrived, he drove the car into the underground parking garage, turned his head and looked straight at Chen Yin, the usual smile on his face dissipated, and frowned: "I don't agree." β
Chen Yin said in a calm tone: "I think that artists and agents should have a cooperative relationship. "Since it is a cooperative relationship, there is no such thing as who must obey whom's arrangement.
Zhang Zhang raised his hand and put down his glasses: "The premise of cooperation is the strength of reciprocity." "Although on the surface, artists and agents emphasize cooperative work, but due to practical reasons, the artist's popularity is not enough, or the agent's strength is insufficient, and in the entertainment industry, the two are more of a subordination.
Chen Yin curled his lips and showed a faint smile: "I think I have the qualifications to cooperate with you." "It's not strength, it's qualification. Even if Chen Yin is penniless now, he has no doubt that as long as he is given enough time, the so-called word strength is only a matter of time.
Zhang Zhang was silent for a while, quickly re-positioned Chen Yin in his heart, and after a while, he smiled again: "It seems that you need to prepare your own breakfast." β
One of the requirements for many celebrities to recruit assistants is to require assistants to have certain cooking skills, based on the particularity of the profession of celebrities, most celebrities are unlikely to go out to buy breakfast by themselves on weekdays.
"Hmm." Chen Yin was a little embarrassed, his eyebrows were furrowed, his lips were slightly pursed, and there was a rare childishness on his face, which made the handsome face with beautiful eyebrows and phoenix eyes move more and more, and Zhang Zhang's heart on the side couldn't help beating.
Over the years, he has seen thousands of handsome men and women in the entertainment industry, not to mention thousands, but he has rarely seen Chen Yin like this. Chen Yin's appearance is very good, even if he is in the entertainment circle where there are many beauties, he is not inferior, but what makes Zhang Zhang take a fancy to him is his acting skills and his temperament.
Mysterious, elegant, and confident, coupled with maturity beyond his age, constitute a temperament that belongs to Chen Yin, and it is precisely because of this temperament that people can notice him at a glance in the crowd.
Zhang Zhang called this kind of temperament personal charm, something that a star must have if he wants to be popular. Some people are born with the advantage of becoming famous quickly in the entertainment industry, this is a job given by God, and others can't take it away and complain. For example, Chen Yin in front of him is not as good as the actor Qin An, who has had a one-sided relationship.
Chen Yin finally said, "Otherwise, please ask the assistant to come over an hour early." Although he can cook by himself, he is limited to simple side dishes, and he rarely does it himself, in short, he is lazy.
Zhang Zhang: The image of the noble son in the mind of "......" was broken in half.
Xingcan Studio is on the ninth floor of the Phantom Building, and the entire floor of more than 300 square meters belongs exclusively to the studio, plus Zhang Zhang, the general person in charge, there are a total of 15 people in the studio, a copywriter, a businessman, an accountant, a makeup artist, a hairstylist, a costume artist, a photographer, a nutritionist, a publicity director, three publicity planners, and the remaining two are assistants.
Among them, the hairstyle, makeup, costumes and photographers followed Zhang Zhang from the original company to jump ship, and the rest were specially transferred to him by Xie Li from the company.
The two of them stood by the elevator, and the red number on the elevator door dropped from 10 to 1.
Bite! The elevator door opened, and two men walked out of it, the one in front was wearing a gray suit, revealing a white shirt inside, with wide shoulders and long legs, and a chic temperament, it was Xie Li, the general manager of the Phantom Company.
"Mr. Xie."
After hearing the voice, Xie Li stopped, looked sideways, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Chen Yin? β
Chen Yin nodded politely: "See you again, Er Shao." β
As if seeing an old friend, Xie Li asked curiously, "Why are you here?" Although he said it to Chen Yin, he looked at Zhang Zhang on the side, and there was a hint of warning in his dark eyes.
Zhang Zhang, who was looked at like this by his boss: "......" pretending to be a big-tailed wolf, didn't you ask me to sign him over?
Zhang Zhang coughed, curled his fox eyes and smiled: "I didn't expect Mr. Xie and Chen Yin to know each other." Mr. Xie, I plan to sign Chen Yin. β
Xie Li sighed, nodded and said, "I heard Zhou Zhou say that you are a student of the acting department, and your acting skills are very good." Stellar Studio has just been established, and it's in need of talent like you. As he spoke, he put his hand on Chen Yin's shoulder and patted his subordinates on the shoulder like the encouragement of the CEO of any company: "Work hard." β
Chen Yin: "......" Why didn't he know when Zhou Zhou was so familiar with this second young man? His gaze moved upward, and there was no terrifying madness in Xie Li's eyes, and his peaceful gaze and elegant smile showed the good upbringing of his noble son.
But Chen Yin knew that this qiΔ was just an appearance, and Xie Er on the racing track in the nightingale was the real Xie Er hidden under this elegant skin. He took his eyes back, and since he agreed to sign a contract with Zhang Zhang, he was ready to meet Xie Li.
There was no confusion, surprise, or confusion, even that night. 1.2...... Five, exactly five seconds, Xie Li slowly took his hand back, nodded and smiled and said, "Chen Yin, Zhang Zhang." There is a step ahead, see you later. Walking towards the parking lot, the man who had been standing silently behind him since just now hurriedly chased after him.
"Two less." Xiao Wu followed behind him and said, "Mrs. Rong called you to come over for dinner in the evening." β
Xie Li's action of pulling the car door paused, the expression on his face turned cold, and he opened his eyes: "Who told the secret?" β
Xiao Wu broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, the expression on his face was as usual, and he said in a low voice: "I should just ask you to go over for dinner......
Xie Li looked away and sat in the car: "That's good, remember to keep your mouth shut." β
"Yes."
The car started, Xie Li leaned on the saddle, half-closed eyes, and the dark window glass reflected a faint half of the shadow.
Fake, all fake, rushed over, smashed the glass, the sharp and piercing voice sounded in his head, the voice kept changing, sometimes it was a kind old man's voice, sometimes it was an innocent child's voice, and more often it was a hoarse voice that couldn't distinguish between men and women.
The shadow in the window began to distort, splitting in two from the middle, then into four, and four into eight...... There were more and more shadows, all of them looking exactly the same, their mouths opening and closing, silently mouthing him. He knew that what they were saying was that only death could bring liberation.
Touch!
Xiao Wu, who was driving in front, skidd, and the car almost hit the railing on the side of the road, so he quickly pulled over and turned his head to look behind: "Er Shao?" β
Blood slid down the car window, Xie Li's eyes were red, his whole body was tense, he gritted his teeth, and gasped rapidly. Seeing this, Xiao Wu quickly turned around and rummaged in the car, and quickly handed over a small bottle of medicine and mineral water.
Xie Li's pupils shrank, and he looked at the small medicine bottle with disgust, but he still stretched out his hand to take it, poured out two pills from the medicine bottle, and swallowed them directly without water.
After drinking the medicine, Xie Li gradually returned to normal, Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief, put the medicine and water away, turned around and continued driving.
Xie Li let go of his right hand and looked indifferently at the blood stains on the back of his hand. This hand, just through his clothes, touched a person, a person who made him excited. He remembered the moment at the third dark bend, when the cars staggered by
β¦β¦ It's about to die, fast, feeling.
