Chapter 589: Trainees Meet
On the second day of Li Lin's agreement, Zhijiangtai Entertainment News took the lead in breaking the news that Li Lin was about to become a mentor of The Voice.
"This morning, news came from the Voice crew that Li Lin will serve as the mentor of The Voice, and he will be the youngest heavyweight mentor besides Li Mochou."
As soon as the news spread, it immediately caused a sensation.
"Li Lin is going to be the mentor of The Voice?"
"This is his first time appearing in a variety show!"
"How can Li Lin be able to become a mentor of The Voice?"
In the time when the Voice mentor has not yet announced the lineup, Li Lin became the first mentor announced by The Voice, and immediately illuminated the night like a meteor across the sky.
Who is Li Lin?
The leader of the new generation of Chinese singers, the king of Asia, and an international superstar.
His popularity, in the whole of China, can be said to be unparalleled.
When he came to star in The Voice, everyone's first reaction was whether this was true or not, and whether the Voice crew was hype.
However, when I think that it is impossible for Zhijiangtai to announce this news without getting the exact news, and it is also announced in the form of entertainment news, I know that it is not fake.
So the only thing that can be talked about is how much money the Voice crew has invested to make Li Lin nod and agree to become the mentor of The Voice.
"I guess the good voice must have smashed tens of millions of dollars to Li Lin, maybe the good voice smashed hundreds of millions of Huaxia coins before smashing Li Lin down."
"How is it possible, the revenue of the voice is only 300 million to 500 million, even if Li Lin joins the voice to greatly increase the ratings of the voice, and advertisers continue to increase prices. But it's impossible to rise by 100 million, I guess it should be cut in half, 50 million invitation fee! ”
"50 million? Do you really think Li Lin is made of gold? It's great that he can break 10 million. Other voice mentors have just broken 10 million. ”
"Who told you that other mentors have broken 10 million, obviously it is only a million level, do you really think the price of top singers and old-timers in the music industry is high? The music world is to make money, but it is not the fool you imagined to be everywhere. ”
"Upstairs, you're wrong, the mentors of The Voice don't need money, and they are for fame. You see, since the voice, the fame of those mentors has greatly increased. The appearance fee has been turned upside down. ”
"Joke, Li Lin still needs fame? Now Li Lin is in full swing, and he has lowered his schedule when he comes to variety shows, if it is not for a lot of money. He wouldn't have a good voice at all. ”
The good voice is very hot. But no matter how popular it is, it's just a variety show, like a happy base camp that has been popular for so many years, isn't it still low in the face of big-name stars?
Film and television songs, the smallest coffee in variety shows.
In this circle, variety show hosts are the most statusless, no matter how famous you are, your status is there, and any first-line artist is destined to be able to show face to you.
That is, those newly debuted third-tier and second-tier artists need to stammer with variety shows.
The mentor of The Voice is not the host of a variety show. But the regular guests don't have much status. When a singer goes to be a regular guest, he takes the initiative to lower his grade, not to take the money and smash it down, how can it be.
Just when the outside world was speculating, the Voice program team immediately spoke to the outside world and clarified the matter, "Li Lin's appearance fee is confidential, and the Voice program team will not disclose it, but we revealed that we invited Li Lin to be the mentor of The Voice. ”
"Actually, the money is very small, that is, it is a little higher than other mentors."
As for why Li Lin agreed, he once said frankly that it was because of gratitude.
"He debuted on the stage of The Voice, and now he is a good voice mentor, just to repay the favor, at that time, he even wanted to appear at a friendship price, but we refused."
In fact, the discussion at that time was indeed a friendship price, but it was not Li Lin who proposed this friendship price, but Luo Feng.
The appearance fee of The Voice is not high, rather than taking this appearance fee to be attacked by others, it is better to give up directly and appear at a friendly price, which can block other people's mouths, and can also win fame for Li Lin.
But Wang Xide refused.
The reason is very simple, the mentor of The Voice is not a supporting role, and Li Lin is not the only one, he starred at a friendly price, what should the other three mentors do?
Those three mentors do not act at a friendship price, and they have a reputation of good fortune when they are spread; But if they star at a friendly price, they will be ruined.
Sometimes people are afraid of comparison, because comparison is good and bad.
As for not spreading it, hehe, there is nothing in this circle that is a secret.
So in the end, the result of the discussion was that Li Lin lowered his appearance fee, and it was necessary for the Voice program team to help Li Lin publicize.
Subsequently, Wang Xide personally went into battle and said in a program interview on Zhijiang Channel: "Li Lin is very grateful to him. ”
"At his current point, in fact, it doesn't matter whether he repays the favor at the beginning or not, because no one dares to say that he is ungrateful if he doesn't report it."
"So at that time, we were very nervous when we invited him, for fear that he would refuse us."
"However, what I didn't expect was that Li Lin flew back from the United States immediately after getting the news, and then came to Hangzhou by car non-stop, and after arriving at the hotel to meet with us, he didn't say a word, and directly asked us where the pen was, and I came to sign."
"I was touched by what he did, so when he said that he wanted to be the mentor of the voice for the friendship price of one yuan Huaxia coin, I refused, because although he came to repay the favor, we can't take other people's kindness for granted, so what's the difference between that and a beast?"
In Wang Xide's description, Li Lin was portrayed as an artist who knew how to repay his kindness, and The Voice was also portrayed as a humane crew who did not take other people's returns for granted.
For a while, Li Lin's fans were all excited, and they expressed their joy and excitement for their idol's words and deeds.
As for the people in the circle, although everyone knows that there is moisture in these words, no one will say it, and it is a question of whether others believe it or not, not to mention that they don't need to offend the Voice Maker Zuò Group and Li Lin.
……
In the hotel near Zhijiangtai, youthful faces came and went, along with their reporters who grabbed their faces and asked questions.
This is the Voice trainee meet-and-greet.
Every time the voice is about to start, the students will make a small appearance at the hotel in Zhijiangdai, and of course, in order to attract reporters, there are often one or two mentors to meet with reporters.
This year, because Li Lin was the first to be revealed to join the relationship with The Voice, there are a lot of reporters who come.
"There seems to be a lot of journalists this year."
An agent stood in the background and looked at the reporter in front of him boredly, and after a glance, he found that there was at least three or four percent more black pressure than in previous years.
"Isn't Li Lin coming?"
Another agent said with a smile, the agent of a newcomer like them has always been very relaxed, of course, the salary earned is also very low, "That's the king of Asia, usually live in a shallow way, reporters can't interview at all, you know, in addition to entertainment reporters, there are financial reporters staring at him, especially the recent news that the gold medal group is going to be listed, the financial reporter is crazy to interview him, that posture, tsk, are harassing the customer service of the gold medal group." ”
Entertainment reporters will not harass customer service no matter what, of course, this has something to do with the fact that celebrities often stay in the company, but anyway, I haven't seen such a crazy financial reporter as before.
"It's the first time I've known that financial journalists are so crazy, hehe, I don't know if those company CEOs need brokers? Maybe I can apply for it. A young agent joked.
Novices have low salaries and stars are difficult to serve, which is notoriously good, this line, unless you can boil up your qualifications, expand your network or your own artists suddenly become popular, otherwise you will have a hard time, generally speaking, agents who have been in the industry for about 5 years and have not improved much will have to consider changing careers.
If you don't change jobs, you won't be guaranteed in your old age.
Only the kind of agent whose artist is popular can get mixed up by extracting the artist's commission and connections through guò.
Generally speaking, the agent of a popular artist under his umbrella, as long as he doesn't die by himself, basically won't die.
"What they need is a young and beautiful agent, oh, it should be called a little secret, as for you, it's better hehe!" Another elderly agent said with a smile.
Suddenly, the noisy scene just now suddenly quieted down, and the agent who was chatting also stopped, and his eyes swept ahead, looking for the reason for the quiet.
"It's Li Lin."
I don't know who shouted, the reporter suddenly frantically rushed to the front, with long guns and short cannons, aimed at Li Lin, who had just gotten out of the car, "Li Lin, can you ask, why did you accept the invitation of the Voice crew to become the mentor of The Voice this time?" ”
"Li Lin, may I ask, there are rumors that the Gold Medal Group is preparing to go public, I don't know what the specific time is?"
"Li Lin, "The City is Full of Golden Armor" is a big hit, but word-of-mouth is inversely proportional to the box office, I don't know what you think about it? Will you feel disappointed in Zhang Yimou, who you dug up with a lot of money? ”
"Let it go...... Let's make a go. ”
Luo Feng struggled to push away the reporter on the left, even though she was surrounded by Li Lin's bodyguards, "Please let go, please let go, don't crowd here." ”
"Don't get it."
Li Lin grabbed Luo Feng, pulled her into his arms, and said distressedly, "Just leave these things to the bodyguards, you are a little woman, there is no need to do these things that the big men do." ”
"It's not about protecting you, the big star."
Luo Feng elongated the tail note of 'Big Star' and gave Li Lin a roll of the eyes. (To be continued......)
