Chapter 172: Wait and see
Recently, an entertainment news has caused a sensation in the entire entertainment industry.
[Qiu Mingbo resigned from World Elephant Entertainment and joined Legend Entertainment.]
It is understood that Legendary Entertainment is a company co-founded by Lu Zhou and music producer Pan Chengyi, a rookie who has recently risen in the entertainment industry, and Lu Zhou is the largest shareholder.
It is reported that there is currently only one artist in Lu Zhou, which is owned by Legend Entertainment.
Qiu Mingbo did not take any of the artists of World Elephant Entertainment with him this time, but chose to join Legendary Entertainment alone. This matter is not like Qiu Mingbo's style.
can attract Qiu Mingbo to jump from a head entertainment company to a micro-enterprise that has just started and doesn't know what the future fate will be, what is the great charm of Legendary Entertainment to Qiu Mingbo?
Could that huge charm be Lu Zhou?
Qiu Mingbo actually put his career future on Lu Zhou alone?
The most dazzling rookie in the entertainment industry in recent years is paired with the veteran agent Qiu Mingbo, can their cooperation move towards new glory? We'll see. ]
Not long after this entertainment information came out, the entertainment industry was overwhelmed with discussions about this matter for a while.
World Elephant Entertainmentββ
"When Bogoti left, I thought that a big company would poach him at a high price, just like our company did back then. I was still wondering if it would be Huaxuan Music, but he actually went to a small company opened by the artist himself? Isn't that a small studio? β
"yes, that's a bit of an outrageous choice. Is Bo Ge old and his ambitions gone? No matter how I choose, I won't choose a star studio that is just starting out, it's too cheap for his identity. β
"The high-level has been nervous recently, for fear that Brother Bo's resignation this time will poach half of the artists like Tianyin did back then, and during the resignation and handover, he frequently ordered us to stare at the artists at hand, but they didn't take any of them away this time."
"Brother Bo's power in our company has been almost cut, and now I can't take away many artists, and the artist contract is limited to death, unless it is about to expire, it is basically difficult to go with him."
"I don't think anyone wants to go with him, right? He is willing to follow when he goes to a big company, to Legend Entertainment??? What kind of company is this, I have never heard of it, there is no resources to go, who will go with him? β
"I don't think it's that simple, don't underestimate Brother Bo, his ability and resources are still very top, otherwise the company won't suppress him. He chose to go to Luzhou's company, probably to find a new path, from this point of view, I still admire him very much, Bo Ge will always be an example for me to follow. β
"I feel that this continent is not simple, let's see their subsequent development, now we look down on their cooperation, maybe they will slap us in the face in the future."
"I don't know anything else, I feel like the higher-ups are probably laughing today."
"Not necessarily, you may cry, I still think that Bo Ge jumped to legendary entertainment, and World Elephant Entertainment has been insulted."

Jinhua Entertainmentββ
Liu Yali and Xu Mengdan, as well as the Light Chasing Youth League, were in a meeting to talk about the recent development plan and review the activities of the previous period.
At the end of the meeting, ready to end, Xu Mengdan was dumbfounded when he saw the content pushed by the entertainment express.
"Qiu Mingbo joined Legend Entertainment and officially reached a cooperation with Lu Zhou."
Xu Mengdan read part of the content, and the corners of his mouth trembled slightly at Liu Yali, the brokerage director, "This ...... What's going on? β
Liu Yali hadn't had time to see the news yet, and she was stunned when she heard the words.
"What did you say?"
"The news said that Qiu Mingbo became Lu Zhou's agent." Xu Mengdan simplified the content and repeated it.
Liu Yali: "??? β
The five members of the Chasing Light Youth League who were chatting next to them noticed what their agent had just said, their eyes widened, and then they all took out their mobile phones to watch the news.
Qiu Mingbo has a great reputation in the entertainment industry.
A vigorous and resolute agent, his strength is very strong, he analyzes the development direction of artists, and his ability to talk about resources for artists under his hands is very top, the point is that he is the first brother of a veteran agent, and the network resources in his hands are also very rebellious.
An artist who wants to get ahead, who doesn't want to mix under Qiu Mingbo?
Therefore, the five members of the Light Chasing Youth League were speechless in their hearts when they heard the content of this news.
Lu Zhou, this kid, what kind of shit luck is he going, even if his career development has been smooth recently, he can still get Qiu Mingbo's favor?
At this moment, it is false to say that there is no envy.
"Qiu Mingbo actually left the world?" Liu Yali went to see the news, still a little surprised, "I actually went to such a small company." β
"He really makes a lot of noise every time he leaves." Xu Mengdan couldn't help but complain with a smile.
"But it's not ......" Liu Yali also smiled and shook her head, "After all, every time I leave my job, it is a big surprise, and I think his life motto is likely to be: I, a different me." β
The Light Chasing Youth League was amused by Liu Yali's ridicule.
"It can only be said that Lu Zhou is really lucky." Ling Jie, one of the members of the Light Chasing Youth League, sighed.
"Not necessarily, apart from the platform of a large company, Qiu Mingbo may not be able to exert his true strength alone. And Qiu Mingbo is very strong, not necessarily suitable for Lu Zhou, whether it is luck or not, we have to see again. Xu Mengdan answered.
Is Lu Zhou lucky? Or is it something else? Liu Yali remembered that Lu Zhou refused to sign back to Jinhua Entertainment, and smiled embarrassedly, "Let's wait and see." β
β¦β¦
While most people in the industry have always held a wait-and-see attitude towards the cooperation between Qiu Mingbo and Lu Zhou, Lu Zhou's fans are in a completely different state.
They are happy to run for a long time.
[Qiu Mingbo is a real discerning pearl!] ]
[It is worthy of our continent, powerful people will eventually be seen, and you will definitely take off in the future]
[Happy cooperation!] Looking forward to the resources that the new broker can bring to Lu Zhou]
[Inventory of the first- and second-tier artists brought out by Qiu Mingbo, I believe that Lu Zhou will soon enter this ranks]
β¦β¦
There was a lot of movement outside, but inside Legend Entertainment was very calm.
The news of Qiu Mingbo's joining Legend Entertainment was promoted by Qiu Mingbo, and he used his name in the circle to imbue Lu Zhou with a small halo, which can be regarded as the first wave of resource advertising he played for Lu Zhou in the industry.
There is a meeting going on here, and Qiu Mingbo, as an agent, is making arrangements and adjustments to Lu Zhou's recent work plan.
Linda trembled as she reported Lu Zhou's schedule, she was inexplicably a little scared of the new boss, but her heart was more of admiration and a huge desire for knowledge.
The person she wants to become in the future is an agent like Qiu Mingbo.
Linda didn't expect her boss to recruit her an agent at the level of her apprentice, and from now on, I believe she can learn even more.
After listening to Linda's report, Qiu Mingbo picked up the pen and pointed to the projection area, saying:
"The shooting time of these advertising itineraries is unreasonable, this is a small cooperation, you waste more time in planning like this, find a way to re-communicate, and intersperse these shooting times with the rest of other activities."
After hearing this, Linda subconsciously glanced at Lu Zhou and said, "Shooting in the interval between breaks?" This will squeeze the boss's rest time, and he will be unhappy. β
"If he wants to develop bigger, he won't be unhappy." Qiu Mingbo didn't look at Lu Zhou, and continued to stare at the itinerary and analyze.
Lu Zhou pursed his lips and smiled, but did not answer.
Linda blinked, and said to herself: It turns out that she can still be so strong, and she has learned another trick!
"What do you do with all that spare time?" Linda asked.
"You can do anything, take a break, hone your skills, write songs, find inspiration...... You can make the most of his busy day, but you can't fill his day with work, you have to give him time to breathe, and he's focused on working on his work, and as a singer, he has too few works right now. β
Qiu Mingbo's face was serious.
As he spoke, he looked at Lu Zhou.
"Even if you can release an album today, the work still needs to be verified by the market, and it will take time, so don't grind, don't wait, hurry up and work on the work, whether it is original or cover, give me time to start it."
Qiu Mingbo repeatedly emphasizes his works.
He swept his gaze to Lu Zhou and Pan Chengyi, and said:
"If you want to gain a firm foothold in the circle quickly, you need to produce as many high-quality works as possible, and shorten this cycle, I believe that with your ability, you should do it, right?"
"You can play classical music arrangements at that level, and if you use this hard power to make pop songs, I think you should be able to do it well, right?"
Qiu Mingbo asked.
Lu Zhou and Pan Chengyi glanced at each other, pursed their lips and smiled: "The album is already in the preparation stage, and it will take some more time." β
"Are you going to go out as a regular or mini specialist?" Qiu Mingbo asked.
Lu Zhou: "Regular." β
Qiu Mingbo: "The first album can be released first, and the first three songs can be pushed to make some splashes in the market, see the feedback, and then be more mature, and it is not too late for us to release a regular album." β
"Your previous "First Love" can be recorded into the mini-album, then write two new songs, I believe that with you and Cheng Yi cooperating, the two songs don't need to take too long."
Pan Chengyi answered with a smile: "I also suggested this before. But he said that the variety show "Star Movement 1+1" is about to start, and he wants to take advantage of this period to slowly write a regular specialty, and then release the album after the variety show is recorded. β
After listening to this, Qiu Mingbo pondered for a moment, feeling that this plan was not impossible to consider.
"When will "Star Motion 1+1" be launched?" He asked.
"It's almost the near future, and I'm still waiting for the final notice from the program team." Assistant Linda answered.
"It's not impossible, take advantage of the show to brush up on a wave of popularity, and then increase the number of fans, and the album sales will be better when the time comes." Qiu Mingbo said thoughtfully.
Lu Zhou nodded, "That's exactly what it was planned." β
"But the ...... of "Xingdong 1+1" Qiu Mingbo flipped through the information in his hand, as if he had concerns, "It is a newly launched variety show, without the previous accumulation of popularity, it is still unknown what its market performance will be." β
"If this variety show can have a good popularity, then the extension of this wave of timeline is meaningful."
"But if this variety show doesn't work...... Not only may it not be hot, but it will also waste a lot of time. β
Qiu Mingbo took the introduction of the program handed over by Linda, and said while watching: ""Star Movement 1+1" is directed by Director Chen Xiangxin, and Director Chen ......"
He frowned slightly as he spoke, and collected Director Chen's professional achievements in his memory.
"He is a variety show director with a lot of personality, he always wants to play something different from others, has self-pursuit, will not easily succumb to capital, and insists on his own ideas when making shows."
"It's his strengths and his weaknesses."
"The two music comprehensives he directed in the first two years were quite unusual, but the market feedback was average, and the ratings were not good."
"Whether this show can be done this time, I reserve my opinion."
Qiu Mingbo shared his understanding of director Chen Xiangxin.
"You're going to take this show yourself?" He looked at Lu Zhou and asked.
Lu Zhou bowed slightly, "I took it myself." β
"You took it because you didn't have other good resources, thinking that if you could get on the next one, would it be good to have one more exposure chance?" Qiu Mingbo continued to dig deeper into Lu Zhou's thoughts.
Pan Chengyi is also very curious, Lu Zhou was screened out by the star casting director once when he signed up for "Star Movement 1+1", but he still insisted on going to the sea to get in, not like a blind show, but maybe he is really optimistic about this show.
Lu Zhou couldn't say, "I know it can be popular", so he replied with a different rhetoric: "No, I'm interested in the gameplay of this variety show, and I have a hunch that it should have good results, so I signed up for it." β
Qiu Mingbo nodded and said, "Looking at the introduction of this show, there is indeed a difference from the previous music comprehensive gameplay, which is a bit interesting." But whether Director Chen can make it up is another matter, and my prediction of its success rate is five or five points. β
"If I can win another music variety show for you that ensures high traffic and high ratings, are you willing to give up this variety show and switch to other programs?" Qiu Mingbo suddenly changed his words and asked.
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and asked back with interest: "Which variety show?" β
"Kamen Singer." Qiu Mingbo said.
Pan Chengyi's eyes widened slightly when he heard this, this music variety is the most popular music program in the past two years.
The program team is about to make money.
The second season of this year is about to start, and the guest lineup of the second season is said to be very strong.
In the past, the program team warmly invited singers from all walks of life to participate, and different resource allocations were given according to the size of the coffee seats, and it was not necessarily possible to invite ideal intended guests.
But in the second season of this show, it is said that the well-known singers in the industry who came to the door and wanted to participate in the show made the casting directors have difficulty in choosing.
The popularity has reached this level, and if you want to enter this music comprehensive, you don't have a certain popularity, singing strength and works to support it, and you may not even be able to cross the threshold of the show's primary casting if you sign up.
And Pan Chengyi heard that the casting process of the regular challenge guests has long been over.
But Qiu Mingbo just had the confidence to say that he could help Lu Zhou talk about the opportunity to participate in "The Kamen Singer"?
Cow, this is the legendary gold medal broker strength!
"Isn't the casting over for this show?" Lu Zhou asked.
Lu Zhou collected his memories, because he had not participated in his previous life, he had no impression, but he had the impression that this show was not much different from the timeline of "Star Movement 1+1", and it was a competitive music comprehensive at that time.
"It stands to reason that it would have been over a long time ago." The corners of Qiu Mingbo's mouth were a confident smile, "But I have my own way, you just say if you want to participate in this variety show, or do you have enough confidence in your singing skills?" β
Linda looked at Qiu Mingbo's confident appearance, and her eyes suddenly lit up, Emma, she will become such a gold medal agent in the future!
"If you can take it, I'll participate." Lu Zhou said with a smile.
Pan Chengyi interjected at this time, "This show, the singing strength must be excellent, and it will be effective to participate, I heard that there are many cattle in this season, if the singing strength is not enough......"
He tugged at the corners of his lips and smiled "you know."
"As the saying goes, there is no harm without contrast...... If you are a little careless, this kind of hit audio variety is likely to have the opposite effect......"
Pan Chengyi voiced his concerns.
Qiu Mingbo agreed with his statement, "That's true, so I just asked him if he has confidence in his singing ability." β
Lu Zhouxiu's own singing level is not much, and the stage where Lianzong was out of the circle before was either mainly based on musical instrument performance, or the songs involved were all played at will, in fact, I can't see the real singing strength.
They all know that he is very good at composing, and they know that he plays a wide range of instruments, but how good is his singing? Wow.
After all, his original song "First Love" doesn't need much singing skills, it is simply a pop song that is easy to learn and sing.
Therefore, it is normal for them to question Lu Zhou's strength.
Lu Zhou: "As long as I have the opportunity, I can participate, don't be afraid of comparison, in addition to being famous on the show, if you can learn from the big bulls, you can also improve your ability, right?" β
"Brother Bo, help me fight for it."
Lu Zhou's expression was firm.
Qiu Mingbo: "It's good that you have this kind of mentality, of course I want you to be on this variety show, in this case, I will implement this matter as soon as possible, if it is implemented in place, "Star Movement 1+1" will be pushed here?" β
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "Don't push." It's best to do both. β
Qiu Mingbo: "There may be a conflict at that time. β
Lu Zhou: "It's all communicative, isn't this what you're good at?" β
Qiu Mingbo smiled, "Okay." I arrange. β
