"That's how you sold me?"

An eye knife flicked it over.

"I don't, I'm serving the company." Qi Xiangdong responded to Li Lin's eye knife.

"Get out of here."

Li Lin shook Qi Xiangdong's eye knife and immediately looked at Ashley carefully. Tessdale.

He finally understood that he was looking at Ashley. Why is Tessdale so familiar?

Ashley. Tessdale is not a newcomer, in fact, she debuted as early as 1997, and the most famous in Europe and the United States is probably the "Youth Musical" series.

It used to be popular, but it quickly declined.

Not only that, Li Lin also knows Ashley. Tessdale began to try his hand at singing in 07 and once released a big album "Headstrong", which is known as the successor of the diva.

Of course, the successor of this diva is actually not as hot as people think, but has a tepid appearance.

The successor of the diva has become a joke.

Li Lin didn't expect Qi Xiangdong to actually dig her up, and promised a lot of conditions, which can be said to be sold thoroughly.

As for her singing skills, Li Lin is not familiar with her impression, so he doesn't know very well.

However, since she has self-confidence, and the teachers around her have not refuted, she does have a hand in singing.

"Since this is the case, then please also seize the time to train, if you are not good at singing, you can train dance, and you need to train for temperament cultivation and shaping. I don't want my women's group to be chubby. ”

It's not that Li Lin discriminates against chubby girls, but on the whole, chubby girls are not very popular. Han Hong: That's an exception.

Although the singer has not appeared in a classic for a long time, she is still a distinguished guest on major programs, which is very puzzling.

Li Lin once thought that Han Hong was an old-timer in the music world, the eldest sister, but only later did he know that although Han Hong debuted early. But the time when he became popular was in 03, which can be said to be smaller than the debut time of many artists.

But in the hearts of many people, she is the eldest sister in the music world. Very big sister temperament.

In fact, Li Lin doesn't understand why such a female artist, who has not had a new work for a long time, has always been so popular, and he can be seen on major programs.

He once thought that Han Hong was relying on the background. But after he checked. Only then did I know that Han Hong had no background at all, if the army art troupe was also a background, then there were not too many people in the entertainment industry who had this background.

In 02 and 03, the door of the army art troupe has always been very easy to enter, until the 'Phoenix Legend' incident, the door of the art troupe has become difficult to enter.

As for the unspoken rules, Li Lin doesn't think anyone will unspoken rules Han Hong.

Therefore, Han Hong's red is regarded by Li Lin as a special case. A special case that no one else can learn.

So he will never allow his artists to learn from Han Hong, unless this artist wants to find death.

Out the door. Qi Xiangdong immediately caught up, "Why didn't you mention the new work just now, those girls are very disappointed." ”

"You think you can write something new if you want to?" Li Lin glanced at Qi Xiangdong, "How come I don't know how you sold me so completely?" ”

"I'm here to break the ice!" Qi Xiangdong was embarrassed for a while and then said confidently: "This company is yours, isn't it normal to serve the company?" ”

"Besides, if you don't want to, just push it directly, who in the company dares to force you?"

"Ouch, you're reasonable."

Li Lin said in a weird way, no one can force him, but if he can't do what he promised, it will lead the artist to deviate from morality, and the artist is the most unstable group.

He didn't want the Heavenly Troupe he had worked so hard to cultivate to be poached by others.

The cash cow has to be cared for.

If you don't take good care of the cash cow, the end is very miserable.

Like S.M, that's it.

S.M's exploitation of celebrities led to the rise of the Korean entertainment industry, but similarly, the exploitation of entertainers led artists and companies to deviate from morality.

In Li Lin's previous life, after any Korean group came to China for a period of time, they immediately tore up with the company when they returned to South Korea. Force.

Why?

Because they saw that only a fraction of the work they did was being paid more than ten times their income, and their hearts were suddenly unbalanced.

Especially the attitude of Chinese companies towards artists, which is called a gentleness.

In South Korea, even if it is a popular group, the company's senior management can fight if they want to, but in China, the company's top pillar, the senior management will try it, even if it is the boss, I am afraid that they will have to be treated politely, lest their artists suddenly jump ship and make them lose their cash cow.

In this atmosphere, no Korean artist will be dissatisfied with his company.

From superjunior to EXO, any Korean idol group that comes to China for activities will start playing with the company after they go back. Forced to fight.

So much so that Korean record companies are salivating in the face of the Chinese market, and they are afraid that the group will tear up with themselves after they go back. Forced to fight.

This complicated feeling led them to focus on Japan.

However, with the sluggishness of the Japanese market and the rise of local Japanese male artists, the living space of Korean boy groups has been greatly reduced.

As a last resort, I can only come to China.

Although there are many pirated copies in China and they can't sell any records, they can't stand the money of Chinese advertisers, and any advertisement is the endorsement fee of Korean idol groups in South Korea.

The former is easy to come by, while the latter requires constant negotiations with local Korean companies.

In comparison, the Korean record company has to constantly send its idol groups over, even if it is to play and tear it up after going back. Forcing a big war is also not hesitating.

Of course, it's not that Korean Records doesn't want to give their own companies high treatment, it's that they can't give it.

The Korean market is too small, but there are so many artists in such a small market, if the artists are given a high share, then the company's profits will be greatly reduced.

At that time, the company may have to lose money year after year.

As for earning it back in the stock market, it's simply ridiculous.

The Korean stock market has always been harsh on record companies, and in the HOT era, Korean investors showed strong interest in record companies, and at that time, the Korean record industry was a sunrise industry.

After the TVXQ era, the Korean record industry was rated as a sunset industry.

Why?

It's just because of the impact of digital music and the narrowness of the Korean market.

In China, the record market was stolen. After the impact of edition and digital music, it has been declining, but the appearance fees and advertising fees of singers are getting higher and higher, from tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands to millions of appearance fees, it can be said that the sluggishness of the record market has been compensated for in other ways.

There is a musician who said well, only by making records now, that is, singers of Jay Chou's level can make a little money, and more people are losing money.

Why make a record at a loss? Just because of the use of guò records to expand the influence of the singer, from other aspects to make up for the loss of the record company.

The South Korean market is too small, and South Korea's economy has reached a bottleneck, with slow economic growth and sometimes regression, coupled with the strength of TV stations, the appearance fees and advertisements of Korean singers have been maintained at a normal level.

S.M also went to war with Korean television on the issue of appearance fees, but the war ended with S.M's apology.

Even S.M is like this, do other record companies dare to stand up to TV stations?

As for joining forces and coercing theaters to increase their share like the Chinese film and television industry, it is simply impossible.

In China, the reason why coercion can succeed is entirely because of the strength of radio and television, and in the Korean music scene, there is no such strong unit as radio and television.

Moreover, in South Korea, record companies need channels for TV stations, and TV stations can survive without record companies, because in South Korea, in addition to records, there are TV dramas, variety shows, etc., compared to these, the Korean music industry's contribution to the ratings is far from being the first.

In such a situation, no record company would dare to stand up and unite all the record companies to wage war against the TV station.

They would rather steal the market of other record companies than offend the TV station and expand the market.

As a result, Hallyu is constantly attacking each other and spreading outward.

"I'm working for the company, of course I make sense." Qi Xiangdong said confidently: "It's all for the company, but it's for your good." ”

"Really?"

"It's more real than real gold."

"That's good." Li Lin immediately laughed, "Since you like to serve the company so much, shouldn't you make some contributions to the company?" ”

"What contribution?" Qi Xiangdong had a bad premonition.

"The company is about to go public, and you need a good-looking financial statement, so you are ready to cut the company's benefits, since you want to contribute, then start with you!"

Li Lin said with a smile.

"Nope." Qi Xiangdong immediately screamed, "How can this be, for the sake of the good looks of the financial statements, you can't do this to me, I am a hero." ”

"A must." Li Lin said with a smile.

Of course, he will not cut, at this time not only can not be reduced, but to increase, only in this way, can he settle the gradually impetuous mood, "How can I give up some shares to buy within the company, you can prepare!" ”

It's conventional.

You can not do this, but the company's morale fluctuates when it goes public, which is not a very good phenomenon for the company.

As for when this practice started, I don't know, but when the company goes public, this method is the best way to stabilize people's hearts, and it can also make the company's cohesion rise a notch.

"Okay."

Qi Xiangdong answered, and the frivolous Qi Xiangdong just now disappeared in an instant. (To be continued......)
