Chapter 92: Cao Yi's bargaining chips, super first-line contract!
After exchanging contact information with several actors in the crew, Lin Shu called Guo Ke.
But before he could sit for a while, the lounge was pushed away from the outside.
"Lin Shu!"
After opening his eyes and seeing that it was Chen Kaige, Lin Shu instantly sobered up.
"Director Chen, what's the matter?"
Sitting down opposite Lin Shu, Chen Kaige did not speak immediately.
Judging from the expression on his face, it seemed a little tangled.
Seeing his appearance, Lin Shu didn't say anything.
"That's right, the chairman of Xinlidu just contacted me and asked me to help him set up a line, I want to meet you, I don't know what you think."
After hesitating again and again, Chen Kaige spoke frankly.
Concealing it now can indeed allow Lin Shu to meet Cao Yi without knowing it.
But he didn't want to ruin his impression in Lin Shu's heart.
"You make me think!" Lin Shu said in a deep voice.
Cao Yi, the chairman of Xinlidu, wants to meet him, which is not good news for Lin Shu.
He is a "cross-era" artist, and the chairman of a competing company comes to his door, and the purpose can be imagined.
However, Lin Shu is a little puzzled by the fact that there are so many artists "across the era".
Now he hasn't made any movies, and he is a transparent person in front of the public, why did Cao Yi take a fancy to him.
But now is not the time to dwell on this, now he needs to think about whether to drink Cao Yi to meet.
After frowning and thinking for a long time, Lin Shu made a decision.
"Tell me to arrange it! You can meet him. ”
Now that Cao Yi has found Chen Kaige, even if Lin Shu refuses now, there will be others behind.
Instead of avoiding it, it's better to talk about it sooner.
"Have you thought about it?" Chen Kaige said solemnly.
Lin Shu nodded: "When you meet and make it clear, the company should be able to understand!" ”
"Okay, let's go to the teahouse outside, and he'll be waiting for you inside."
"So fast?"
Lin Shu thought that Chen Kaige came to look for him, but he just made an appointment first, but how did he know that Cao Yiren had arrived.
Nodding blankly, Lin Shu didn't take anything, and followed Chen Kaige all the way to the outside of the crew.
After turning around, the two came to a very exquisitely decorated teahouse.
Sending Lin Shu to the box where Cao Yi was, Chen Kaige did not go in with him, but turned around and walked next door.
Exhaling at the door, Lin Shu knocked on the door gently.
In the box!
A middle-aged man with gold-rimmed eyes and a round face immediately stood up after hearing the movement outside the door.
"Mr. Lin, I finally saw you!" Cao Yi stretched out his hand and said with great enthusiasm.
"Hello Mr. Cao!"
"Order first?"
Cao Yi looked at Lin Shu with a smile and a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"Let's just talk about it! I don't think Mr. Cao invited me here to eat with me. Lin Shu shook his head and went straight to the point.
"Okay, I like your character!" After laughing, Cao Yi put away the smile on his face.
The two sat down on the chairs, and Cao Yi took the initiative to speak:
"That'...... I'll just get to the point! As far as I know, Mr. Lin's current contract in "Cross Era" is a third-line right! ”
Although Lin Shu didn't nod and didn't have any expression on his face, Cao Yi didn't care.
He just smiled and continued to his own thoughts.
"I've watched Gao Jin played, your performance in "Slaying the Wolf 2" is really eye-catching!"
Although Cao Yi's voice was flat, it gave people a sense of convincing.
He is a professional when it comes to prying corners.
If you want to poach a talent, the first thing to do is to recognize him, hold him high, and then lure him with profits.
When he has a gap in his heart, he will make a condition that he can't refuse.
It's just that......
"Thanks, I think it's pretty good!"
Lin Shu played his cards completely out of common sense, and for a while Cao Yi forgot how to take it.
However, after so many years of entertainment, he quickly reacted.
"Since you think so yourself, haven't you ever had the idea of changing to an entertainment company?
"Slaying the Wolf 2" is released, you will soon be promoted to a third-tier artist, and with Director Chen's "The Legend of the Demon Cat" filmed now, it is not impossible to become a second-tier artist.
I think you have a lot of potential, have you considered coming to our company?
As long as you want, it is directly the treatment of a super first-line artist.
You don't have to worry about liquidated damages, the company will help you out when the time comes.
What do you think...... What about this condition? ”
After speaking, Cao Yi calmly picked up the cup that was placed aside and took a sip slowly.
He seemed to have expected that Lin Shu would not refuse such a good condition.
"Mr. Cao is finished? If nothing else, I'll go. ”
Lin Shu didn't react much to the super-first-line treatment in Cao Yi's mouth.
Super first-line treatment, not super first-line contract.
There are no substantial benefits, why change companies.
It's not that after changing companies, he can jump out of the identity of an artist and become a capital.
Seeing Lin Shu's indifferent appearance, Cao Yi almost didn't choke on the water.
After coughing lightly, he said with a straight face:
"Maybe you don't understand what I mean, super first-line treatment refers to the level of super first-line in terms of resources, treatment and even contracts.
It's just that because you are not a super first-line artist now, you are competing for resources with other super first-line artists, and you have no right of first choice, but you are better than first-line artists.
You should be able to understand that. ”
From this point of view, the super-first-line treatment in Cao Yi's mouth is indeed not bad.
But......
"If I'm not mistaken, in Mr. Cao's company, there are almost ten super first-line artists!" Lin Shu said quietly.
On the way to the teahouse just now, he looked up a lot of information on the Internet.
The artist team of Xinlidu is very large, and there are ten super first-line artists alone.
In terms of "cross-era" resources, it may be a little less than that of "Xinlidu", but there are not many artists.
On the whole, even if Lin Shu and Xinli both signed super first-line contracts, the competitive pressure is still not small.
That...... Changing companies doesn't make so much sense.
Of course, one thing that is not quite different is that the share ratio may be much higher.
Thinking of this, Lin Shu spoke again: "Mr. Cao, I want to know how your company's super first-line contract is!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Cao Yi's eyes lit up, and he immediately became interested.
"Since you've asked, let me tell you a little bit.
If you are sure to sign a contract with our company, the first thing that cannot be changed is that you must sign it for at least ten years, and the liquidated damages are a total of 80 million.
Secondly, the super first-line contract is divided into six or four in our company, and you take sixty percent, except for these ......"
The more Cao Yi spoke, the more excited he became, as if the conditions he had prescribed were unique in the entire entertainment industry.
But he didn't notice that Lin Shu's face on the other side was getting more and more strange.
