Chapter 195 - When the contract is in progress
"There is not much problem with this contract, and the industry is basically the starting clause for brokerage now. Businessmen are profit-seeking, and they can't afford to be early, and brokerage companies are definitely trying to make money when they are new, and it is impossible to provide free lunch. Therefore, the content of the contract seems to be more harsh. â
Wang Tengfei, as an insider, climbed to the position of production director, which can be called well-informed. He said that Yunheng Media and the brokerage contract are naturally not unfamiliar, and this information is very beneficial inspiration for Xu Hao.
"Speaking of our domestic brokerage contracts, they are relatively mild, but the brokerage contracts in South Korea are really ruthless. Hong Kong, Taiwan. Bay's agency is also very aggressive in exploiting artists. You should have heard that TVB had a falling out with it because of money back then. â
"Relatively speaking, the domestic broker system is not very sound, and many celebrities are in the initial stage of the grass platform, and they will sign a brokerage company only when there are signs of popularity. Abroad, especially in South Korea, they all start to sign contracts from a young age, and any trainees, not only have no money, but also have to give money to the company. â
"However, after years of exploration and learning by Huayi Brothers, Orange Sky Entertainment, and Tianyu Media, some brokerage companies in China have also begun to sign contracts and promote them since childhood.
"Anyway, I feel that the cultivation of domestic artists is getting closer and closer to South Korea and Japan. Large companies use resources to monopolize the cultivation of this artist, and it doesn't matter if it's a newcomer, it's too difficult to get ahead...... Far from it, in short, there are brokerage companies operating for you. It is a great help. â
"You received the role of "Brocade Daytime", it is luck, and you have your own ability. But can you guarantee that you will still receive the role next time? I have worked in Hengdian for seven or eight years, and I was still in Beidian in my early years. Beijing has worked hard for four or five years, how deep is the bowl of water in the entertainment industry. unimaginable. â
"Let's just say that, over the years, I have seen the North Drift, the Horizontal Drift, the one who really came out is one Wang Baoqiang, gone, no one else. It's not that I'm denying you, that's the way the reality is. Xiao Xu, if you don't sign the contract, it will be difficult for you to get ahead. The TV drama crew is generally based in the north. Beijing preparation, as early as the preparation, the main roles were all divided by many companies sent by public relations. â
"You often watch the news and say that so-and-so crew is publicly casting, but it's all fake. To say that ten years ago, someone was selected by luck, and now there is no zĂ i. It's all hype, it's all PR behind it. Otherwise, you're in luck. Know a financier who is willing to spend money to support you. Otherwise, you'll have to sign up with a brokerage company. â
"Have you seen Er Dongsheng's "I Am a Passerby"? Those actors basically signed with a brokerage company. Don't look at Wan Guopeng, now he starred in a movie, if he didn't sign a brokerage company, there would still be no filming. Having said that. You should have a number in your mind. As for this contract, my opinion is that it should be signed, but it is also possible to strive for some more favorable terms. â
Wang Tengfei said a lot and put some facts in the circle. was placed in front of Xu Hao, and finally affirmed the actor agency contract of Yunheng Media.
Xu Hao pursed his lips and asked, "How to fight for favorable conditions?" â
Wang Tengfei took a bite of chicken wings and tapped the table with his fingers: "It depends on the importance that Yunheng Media attaches to you, they show you the contract today, it should just be an intention, and before the final signing, you will definitely be assessed and let you show all your advantages." What do you think are some of your strengths? â
"What an advantage." Xu Hao thought for a while, "Age is one, I can martial arts, art, singing, football, hard-working, united and disciplined, modest and polite, acting skills are also good, dare to show myself...... I'm still growing taller, I'm in good shape, I'm got good skin, and I have a lot of ideas about acting, for film and television......"
"Uh, this, are you writing a resume, haha." Wang Tengfei couldn't help laughing.
"Lao Wang, what I said is true, don't believe it." Of course, what Xu Hao said is true, and one of his biggest advantages is that he has a smart entertainment watch in the future, and he can continuously improve his internal and external qualities.
This is also the reason why he didn't look down on this contract before, he thought that he would be more and more perfect, better and better, and this contract was not worthy of him.
It's just that these words are hard to say, and no one will believe them.
"Well, seriously, I believe you, I've always been quite optimistic about you." Wang Tengfei said solemnly, "Yunheng Media can take a fancy to you, which means that they also have a vision." If you want to get a contract, you might as well fight for it like this. â
"How?"
"If you insist on insisting, you should be able to change it to four or six. Eight years can be signed, and it can also be shortened to five years. These two aspects have been persistent, and there is not much need to be greedy in other aspects. After all, Yunheng Media is not a big company, and I think it can be won. â
Pour four or six open, five years to sign.
Xu Hao is still a little dissatisfied, if he doesn't rely on it, he will definitely not be a picky eater, but after all, he has a strong confidence, even if he works alone, he believes that he will become famous sooner or later.
However, Wang Tengfei's next words completely enlightened him: "Signing the contract now is a help to you, after all, there is a brokerage company operating for you, and the possibility of becoming famous will be greatly increased." Now you feel that this contract is oppressive, and when you become famous, you can communicate with the brokerage company, change the contract, and take care of everything. And the amount of violations is only one million a year, you really make money, this bit of liquidated damages, it's nothing, right. â
âŚâŚ
Listening to Junyi's liking is better than reading a book for ten years.
Some problems are not that Xu Hao can't think of them, but that he has no experience to think about them and no confidence to think about them. Now with the guidance of senior industry insiders, Xu Hao suddenly felt enlightened. If Yunheng Media wants to make money, he wants to become famous, and what he needs everywhere depends on how to grasp the middle degree.
The next day, filming until three o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Hao ended all the scenes in "Brocade Daylight".
Originally, when he ended his first role, there should have been a lot of emotion, but he remembered the signing issue with Ma Duran, and hurried to the Industrial and Commercial Bank building after filming.
Yunheng Media is on the fifth floor of the building.
Out of the elevator hall, I saw the sign of Yunheng Media. Yangyunheng Media Culture Company. There was no one at the front desk, Xu Hao looked left and right, only to see that there was an office next door, the door was open, and Ma Duran was in the office.
Dangdang, Xu Hao knocked on the door.
Ma Duran raised his head: "Xu Hao is here, come in, Mr. Tian is waiting for you." â
Xu Hao soon met Tian Shujun, and only after meeting did he remember that this Tian Shujun was a bald middle-aged man with a big belly sitting next to him when he auditioned for Zhao Dang.
"Mr. Tian is good." Xu Hao greeted politely.
"Xiao Xu, sit, pony, pour Xiao Xu a glass of water."
"Thanks, don't bother, I'm not thirsty."
After the greetings, Tian Shujun put away his smile and asked seriously: "Xu Hao, Ma Duran has already shown you the contract yesterday, it is a draft contract, and you know the general conditions." Your coming here today means that you have basically accepted the conditions of our Yunheng Media. I'm a quick talker, and then we're going to talk to each other, right? â
"Yes." Xu Hao nodded, facing Tian Shujun, he was still a little nervous.
"Signing an artist is a process in which I choose you and you choose me, I will tell you in detail about the packaging and promotion of our Yunheng Media's artists, and at the same time, we will also arrange some opportunities for you to show your talents. Get to know each other better. It's easy to talk about a contract, right? â
"That's right."
Next, it's time for a detailed discussion.
Ma Duran explained the broker system of Yunheng Media in detail. Training, promotion, daily life, business, these are the four major sectors of brokerage companies for brokerage agency, and the same is true for Yunheng Media.
Yunheng Media promises that the company will arrange two months of training courses every year, mainly to train the artist's performance, body and makeup, in which the performance is the adjustment of the mouthpiece, the concept of acting skills and the simulation performance, and systematically cultivate the artist to be familiar with the camera lens, lighting position, line expression and positioning, etc. The body is a fitness class, and the makeup is a simple sofa that you can do, as well as clothing styling.
Promotion includes platform publicity and network publicity, platform publicity is to contact some print media, radio, local TV stations, satellite TV, and even national TV publicity, including interviews, interviews, entertainment programs.
Online promotion includes sending artist news to the portal, promoting major forums, and opening new . Langbo. And customer maintenance, new. Langwei. Bo and maintenance, Tianya, West Temple, fan network, etc. to establish a fan base and be responsible for maintenance, Du Niang post bar management, picture photo recommendation and so on.
The daily routine is that the company will provide accommodation, travel expenses, and meal subsidies, and at the same time require artists not to fall in love, fight, or suck during the signing period. Acts that have a bad effect, such as drugs, alcoholism, and name-calling.
In terms of business, Yunheng Media is more domineering, and the film and television performances are all managed by Yunheng Media, and artists are not allowed to privately take over activities in this area. The company will recommend suitable film and television crews for artists, play some more important supporting roles, and arrange some drama performances.
Xu Hao has no objections to these systems, including the one about falling in love, in his mind, he doesn't fall in love for nineteen or five years this year, and he is only twenty-four years old. As for the acting work, all the acting work is under the management of the brokerage company, which is also the meaning of the topic, and the company will not interfere with the acting work.
However, in terms of the most critical contract period and the composition of the extract, there was no negotiation.
Xu Hao insisted on signing a five-year contract with four or six shares, and Yunheng Media insisted on an eight-year long contract with three or seven shares.
"Mr. Tian, otherwise, let's arrange a talent show first, I think, when I show my talent, you will consider it? Now I am talking empty-mouthed, and I can't understand a lot of words. â
Tian Shujun narrowed his eyes: "Okay, arrange a talent show tomorrow." It's not too early, I'm in for a treat and going for a drink. Pony, go call a few people together. (To be continued......)
