Chapter 220: Revealing the Secrets, the Pyramid Class of the Entertainment Industry
As soon as this question came out, everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
The answer to this question is different in different people's minds.
Gu Ziling: "I will definitely ask him to communicate with the trainees, and then the trainees will praise how professional the company is and how perfect the talent training system is, and finally said that he is quite happy to be a trainee here, and he can learn a lot every day."
The reason why Gu Ziling said this is because he had a similar experience.
The entertainment company he is working in now was not founded by him, and when he first wanted to mix in the entertainment industry, he also found a relatively well-known large company in the circle to cooperate.
It just so happened that the company also had the intention to sign him, and when he took him to visit the company, the person in charge hit it off with him.
But what followed was Bai Gaoxuan's hesitant words: "Will you definitely be allowed to talk to the trainee?"
"When he took me to visit, he just asked me to see the company's environment, and then said hello to the person in charge of the company, took me to meet their agent, and saw the scene when the trainees practiced, and it was gone."
Ming Xiaotao realized something from this, and hurriedly asked, "Did the person who took you stare at you very tightly, just let you take a look and take you away immediately, without giving you a chance to communicate with those trainees during the whole process?"
Bai Gaoxuan's brows tightened, even if he was a big three, he realized that something was wrong, but he hadn't reacted yet.
He thought carefully about the expression of the person in charge at that time, not staring at him very much, but he did care that he was real.
But at that time, he mistook this demeanor for a serious consideration for him, so he kept looking at him, wanting to get some feedback from his look.
Isn't that so?
Xiao Jue looked at He Huanxi, his eyes flashed slightly, and he probably understood.
Only Gu Ziling looked at the others with a blank face, and he was still not in a state.
At first, he couldn't help but ask, "What are you all playing?" It's obviously wrong for his company not to communicate with the trainees, and the desire to sign him is not very strong."
"If you really pay attention to him, it will allow him to understand the strength of the company more comprehensively."
He Huanxi shook his head, his expression was a little dignified, and he didn't play dumb riddles anymore, and said directly:
"As you said, this is a shell company, and I care more about whether the company is formal than whether I attach importance to him, including whether I took Bai Gaoxuan to visit the company that day, and whether it was really their company that I visited."
Gu Ziling reacted completely and blurted out: "No, the address of the company registered is fake, is it possible that the company that took him to visit can also be fake?"
The registered address does not have this company, but fortunately, there is always a reason to be able to prevaricate the past, such as the company moving to a new address, the information has not been updated, and so on.
If even the company you brought to visit is fake, then it's a parallel import.
Xiao Jue spoke at this time: "Since it is a company in the entertainment industry, then the appearance of their trainees is not bad, although you have not communicated with the trainees, you have also met face-to-face, what do you think of their image?"
When Bai Gaoxuan thought of this, the look on his face became even more ugly.
He said in a difficult voice: "The appearance of those trainees is not as tall as I imagined, some of them are very ordinary, and the clothes they wear are also very ordinary."
"I also asked the friend who took me there about this question. My friend said that because these people are just trainees, they have to wait until they have the strength to practice the basic skills of singing and dancing. When the time comes, you have to pay another fee for packaging."
Gu Ziling raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you believe it?"
Bai Gaoxuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's not a question of whether you believe it or not, but it's like this line. There are naturally beautiful people like you in the entertainment industry, and there are also artificial plastic surgery products."
"I've also heard in the anchor circle that many anchors will choose plastic surgery in order to have a more beautiful and photogenic image, and the entertainment industry is a place that makes money from beauty, so it should be more important than us."
Gu Ziling thought about it, and understood why Bai Gaoxuan was so easily fooled in the first place.
That's true.
The entertainment industry is a place full of miracles, and plastic surgery is even more of a magical means.
There are countless examples of how many people have turned over because of plastic surgery to get their beauty.
Ming Xiaotao: "But you have to have a good foundation, if the foundation is too poor, ordinary people may not be able to afford plastic surgery."
Bai Gaoxuan's face became even more ugly.
The trainees he saw before all looked uneven, some looked very ordinary, and some were okay.
But one thing to say, if it is according to the level he has seen, basically everyone has to have plastic surgery.
Even if the trainees can sign an agreement with the company in advance in exchange for a plastic surgery fund, fifty or sixty trainees will have plastic surgery, which is not a small expense.
He was a little skeptical, could that company really be able to lend so much money at once?
He Huanxi saw that Bai Gaoxuan was a little flustered, and suddenly smiled: "Didn't you say that the company was in the city center? We're also downtown now, do you remember the name and address of that company, and now we can go and have a look."
Gu Ziling agreed: "Yes, there is no basis for words, it's useless to just think about it, whether that company is weird or not, quietly go to the scene to inquire again, and you will know."
Bai Gaoxuan hesitated and said, "Idol, can you go to the street?"
Gu Ziling shrugged his shoulders, "Wearing sunglasses and a hat, few people can recognize me."
Even Gu Ziling, a busy man, didn't mind taking a trip, so that others wouldn't mind even more.
It happened that Ming Xiaotao drove over, and the group took Ming Xiaotao's car.
When Gu Ziling got into the car, he whistled, "You bought this car wildly!"
What appeared in front of everyone was a red SUV with a lot of space in the car, more than enough for a few of them.
Ming Xiaotao said with a proud face: "I am the car of a week ago, and this car is your endorsement."
Gu Ziling stopped talking.
He is afraid that if he continues to talk, he will be known the truth about "the car he endorsed, but he knew little about the brand of the car".
Sitting in the car, although the space is smaller than that of the bar, everyone chats more openly.
Although the bar was cleared, there were still cameras, and everyone was a little apprehensive when chatting.
It's different when you sit in the car, and it's an acquaintance driving, so everyone is more assured and bold.
Gu Ziling was in the car and filed another investigation with Bai Gaoxuan.
"In addition to the investigation that your company does not match the actual registered address, it is very likely that it is a shell company. I also asked my agent, after a high-profile anchor like you with goods becomes a star, can you perfectly inherit your previous popularity, and can ordinary people go more smoothly on the road to stardom."
Bai Gaoxuan humbly asked: "I don't know what the agent brother said?"
Gu Ziling paused, glanced at Bai Gaoxuan, and said slowly, "It's difficult, it's very difficult."
"Generally speaking, people like you who have already gained a lot of popularity in other fields should be very simple and have more advantages than ordinary people, but your profession is different from that of celebrities in other fields."
"The anchor must be more down-to-earth than ordinary people, because he has to bring goods, so he must not be cold, that is, he must not have a sense of mystery on his body, you have to make the audience believe in you."
Bai Gaoxuan couldn't help but nodded, "This analysis is very good, the master who led me in the door before also told me so."
Gu Ziling sighed, "But it's not necessarily a good thing. After becoming a star, the identity of the anchor in the past can provide you with affinity, but the audience may not necessarily buy it."
"Success is also famous, defeat is also famous, what stars need is not affinity, but mystery, don't look at those variety shows, stars are the same as ordinary people, but why are there such high ratings?"
"That's because,
What supports the ratings is precisely the mystery of netizens' curiosity about celebrities. If you're too relatable, there's no mystery."
Gu Ziling said: "Therefore, even if you transform into a star, netizens will subconsciously think that you are still an anchor with goods, unless you have not gone far in your anchor career, it will be easier to become a star."
"On the other hand, the most important thing is that the brand side will also have concerns, and you have too many things that you have endorsed before. Even if you are acting or on variety shows in the future, and you become famous, advertisers will take into account your past identity when choosing you to speak for the future." z.br>
When Bai Gaoxuan heard this, he subconsciously felt bad in his heart.
Sure enough, in the next second, Gu Ziling said: "Advertisers will feel that your identity as an anchor with goods in the past is too casual to advertise other brands, and it is not as rare as other celebrities."
He hit the nail on the head and said: "As you know, the biggest part of our income as a star is advertising endorsements, acting remuneration and publicity fees for participating in variety shows."
"As your identity as an anchor with goods, the easiest thing to climb is variety shows. But now the competition between variety shows and variety shows is fierce, and even celebrities are rushing to go to popular variety shows, let alone you, the former anchor who has transformed into a star?"
"Even if the variety show sees that you have a lot of traffic in the past and plans to invite you to join. But my agent thinks that in the end, it will be difficult to push it up, for the simple reason that there is no result."
Don't look at those celebrities rushing to appear on variety shows, but they all have works, and stars who often rely purely on variety shows are very famous. And in the circle, the announcement fee is not as good as those stars who have works."
"You can transform into a star, but the income may not be as good as when you were a top anchor."
Gu Ziling revealed the secrets of some announcement fees in the circle in disguise.
"Being a star is very profitable" is the idea of many ordinary people.
The reality is indeed the case, being a star is indeed more profitable than ordinary professionals.
But if you talk about how profitable, it's not necessarily true.
There is also a hierarchy among celebrities, and most of the heads are on top stars.
The first-line stars are not bad, and the second-tier can also live well, but when it comes to the third-tier and below, it is not necessarily.
After all, not every third-tier star is a powerful faction, and the roles they play have distinctive characteristics that can be remembered by the crew in the circle.
This kind of powerful third-tier star does not need to rely on luxury cars, luxury clothes, and luxury watches to decorate himself, as long as he lives a simple life, he can earn millions a year.
But most of the time, third-tier stars don't make that much money.
Maybe the annual income is so much, but their annual expenses are also huge, and it is normal to spend 500,000 yuan a year on property.
Bai Gaoxuan's expression became more solemn.
He wants to be a star, and more often than not, he wants to make a lot of money.
In addition, celebrities look very beautiful, and being tired is also valuable.
Unlike the tiredness of anchors, who deal with a bunch of items, celebrities can run around and see many different landscapes.
His current annual income is tens of millions, and when it comes to the New Year's holiday, he can make a lot of money.
Tired is very tired, but the income remuneration is also very exaggerated, after all, he is the head anchor.
After a moment of silence, Ming Xiaotao spoke, "The address has arrived, let's go down and have a look first."
The topic of whether or not to transform is too heavy to be done overnight.
But to check whether the company is qualified, is now.
