The strongest agent [entertainment]

Because Ding Chenbin won the best actor and proved that Xichu is still capable, some unpopular artists began to defect to Xichu Entertainment in order to achieve better development.

It’s just different from the early stage of the company’s establishment, in order to expand the company’s scale, Chu Xu generally accepts artists as long as their qualifications are not bad.

At this time, if any artist wants to sign Xi Chu, Chu Xu and his managers have already started to pick someone. If the qualifications and acting skills are not enough, Xi Chu will not sign again.

As for Ding Chengbin, Chu Xu's plan for him is to follow the aggressive route.

Therefore, even after he won the Star Horse Movie King, he had drama appointments and continued endorsements. Chu Xu was still quite cautious when choosing scripts and endorsements for him. It's different, Chu Xu's plan for him is very clear, which is the route of a high-end artist, and he doesn't need to keep making new plays like Su Que and Jiang Yichen, so as to maintain the popularity and popularity... What he wants is that every film is representative Sexual works, no bad movies...

That is to say, Ding Chenbin can stay silent for a long time without accepting dramas, or even only have one drama a year, but it must be a high-quality conscience drama, and he can't accept any drama because of the popularity.

The same is true for endorsements. Ding Chengbin must maintain a strong character. He can only have one or two high-quality endorsements, and he can't pick and choose any endorsement because of the popularity.

That's making quick money...

Although the money comes quickly, it will lose its worth and godhood.

Many actors who became famous by their acting skills did not notice this after they became famous, and they were eager to make quick money, so they fell down... There are too many bad brand endorsements and bad dramas, and conscience dramas and high-quality endorsements will naturally not Looking for you again, I will naturally feel that you have low written all over your body.

A capable actor can go a long way on this road only by adhering to Ning Que Wu Lan.

Let the audience think of you when they see you.

Chu Xu pushed more than a dozen unknown brand endorsements and more than a dozen messy movie and TV drama scripts for Ding Chenbin in one breath.

If an actor with shallow eyelids, no confidence in himself, is desperate to make money, or is afraid that he will be forgotten by the audience if he doesn't show up in front of the audience for a while, if he finds out about it, he may have to do it right away. Turned faces with Chu Xu.

Fortunately, Ding Chenbin is not that kind of person, but an entertainer who is not impetuous and regards acting and acting as his lifelong goal, not those stars who are only focused on making money to eat their youth.

Ding Chengbin was not annoyed when he heard that Chu Xu pushed him more than n drama appointments and endorsement matters, he was silent for a while, and just said: "...a manager, you are the manager, you can decide these things, just make up the plot in a rough way It doesn’t matter if you don’t make a bad drama with dead logic, I don’t need so many endorsements, you don’t need to tell me, just send the script you selected to my email.”

Unbelievably good communication.

"Okay, I'll send you the script that I think is pretty good right away, Teacher Ding." Chu Xu likes such actors, so even if he is Ding Chenbin's boss now, he always uses the script when talking to Ding Chengbin. honorifics.

Ding Chenbin, who is quite an old artist, after a few simple greetings with Chu Xu, once again devoted himself fully to the research on the role of the drug lord and the intense filming.

******

Chu Xu's current identity is not only a broker, but also the chairman and founder of Xichu.

Therefore, he has to take responsibility not only for his five artists, but also for other agents, artists, directors and screenwriters in the company.

As soon as Chu Xu resumed work, he got in touch with the advertisers, investors, producers, and TV stations that he had a good relationship with in the past. He was eloquent and tried every means to attract sponsorship and investment.

He never let go of Yin Jue and Yuan Jie.

After Dong Ping Xi made up more than 2 million yuan of funds, Chu Xu opened more than ten dramas in one breath, including sitcoms, costume dramas, martial arts dramas, idol dramas, and life dramas... all of which were used by himself For the newcomers and n-line artists under the management of the company's agents, the company started filming for the actors themselves.

Because none of the actors are popular, and the director, screenwriter and production team are all from their own company, so the investment cost is very economical. The total cost of filming a film is considered to be all the actors' salaries, and the total investment in post-production is only a million or so. to 200 million.

Chu Xu is not afraid that if the actors are not popular, the ratings of the drama will be bad.

He firmly believes that as long as the script is good, produced with conscience, and the actors' acting skills are online... no one will watch it.

Chu Xu didn't believe that the audience was blind, and would rather watch a messy drama performed by a group of popular stars than watch something they made in a down-to-earth manner.

Even if it can't be broadcast on TV, Chu Xu believes that the webcast will be enough to pay back.

The place where Chu Xu spends the most money is to establish a good relationship with the TV station. He opened several programs. Su Que and Pan Yanyan from the company came to participate in the show, bringing the popularity of the show.

After a bit of hype, no matter whether the show is popular or not, they must find a way to make some newcomers who are more optimistic about their qualifications familiar with each other.

There are also many investors and TV stations who want to put the newcomers and artists they want to support in Chu Xu's programs and dramas. On the premise of not affecting the interests of his own artists, Chu Xu will not refuse these artists... ...In this circle, profit-seeking, resource exchange, and things like taking what they need are all too common.

Chu Xu dared to use newcomers. The screenwriters and subtitle teams of several programs were newcomers who had just been recruited into the company, with unconstrained ideas and the courage to innovate.

What they do is very creative and innovative.

Chu Xu watched it first, and felt that the program was effective and very funny.

When the show was aired on TV, it became a hit.

The subtitle group and screenwriter of the Chuxu team have also won titles such as "the cutest subtitle group in history" and "the most creative screenwriter in history".

As a result, Xichu Entertainment has become more and more formalized.

There are so many projects that Chu Xu is so busy that he can hardly find the north every day. Every day, he is busy gradually improving and building his own entertainment kingdom.

I don't care about signing new artists at all, solicit sponsorship investment with TV stations and investors every day, and fight for broadcasting platforms... My throat is full of smoke, and my tongue is about to get sores.

The company has also been stuffed by many investors with their little lovers who have not signed the company.

At this moment, someone called Chu Xu again, expressing to him his desire to sign a contract under his name.

Chu Xu has been tried by the big boss to stuff him for the past few days, so he had a conditioned reflex, and he opened his mouth and said, "I'm sorry, I already have a lot of artists under my command, and I don't plan or have too much energy to bring in new people for the time being." , if you want to sign with our company, you can contact other agents of our company, I will cover them all, and the final effect will be the same."

"...I'm Bian Hui." The other party was stunned for a moment before saying so.

Chu Xu suddenly woke up, and immediately changed his words: "Then let's meet and talk."

In the early days of his business, whether it was for Su Que's sake or not... Bian Hui always gave him solid support for his company, and even helped his company's artists a lot. , It is to introduce resources, and it is to solicit sponsorship, to introduce the resources of the TV station.

Bian Hui's kindness to Chu Xu has always been in his heart.

"Actually, as an agent, I really don't think it is necessary for you to sign a contract with me. Regardless of your resources, popularity, acting skills, team, etc., you have nothing to choose, and you have long been the leader of the niche, famous The treatment of a parent-guiding son...Even if I sign a contract with me, I can't help you, and it will help you very little." Bian Hui's agent is one of the agents that Chu Xu rarely admires in the circle. Bian Hui thinks there is absolutely no need to change agents: "Your grades are already so good, of course I welcome you to sign a contract with me. But from your point of view, from your friend's point of view, I really do The only thing I can't find is the necessity and reason for you to sign with me..."

Chu Xu tapped the table with his index finger: "Your resources, popularity and popularity, audience popularity, national reputation and public favorability have all been sealed, and you can't find better acting skills than you in your generation at the same age... …The reason why you didn’t get the best actor, I can only attribute it to the fact that God opened a door for you and closed a window for you. You don’t want to get all the good things by yourself, you just lack that little bit of luck. "

Although Bian Hui is not that kind of high-quality actor, every year because of returning favors and exchanging resources, he will receive a bunch of bad movies, and he has also acted in a lot of commercial movies, but he is very popular, popular, and his acting skills are online. He will continue to make one or two conscientious productions every year, and he will soon come back to life and become an actor... and the commercial films he acted in are all hits, and the box office soars, which can be called a niche box office. Anti-No.1...

And his team has a good grasp of his route——

Going the route of being funny than the young master, and the hit variety show "Roll!"Pikachu! "The identity of the captain of Team Pikachu is close by.

Popularity, acting skills, etc. are all online.

To be honest, even if such a successful and capped artist was given to Chu Xu, Chu Xu didn't know what else he could do for him.

Bian Hui didn't win Best Actor because he owed it to luck, not his acting skills or route.

Bian Hui took a deep breath on his cigarette, frowning tightly. To be honest, he knew what Chu Xu said, and he had been working hard all these years.However, God just refused to give him the Best Actor trophy, so what could he do?

"Then let me borrow some luck from you. Sign a contract with me, Manager Chu..." Bian Hui exhaled smoke rings, snapped the case, and made a decision: "Didn't you just say that you want to bring out the second one?" If there is a third actor, will you have a second actor in less than three months? I believe that you can still have this luck."

He usually smiles so hard that he can't see clearly.

In fact, deep down in his heart, he was thinking that the film emperor was going crazy.

Chu Xu saw him say that, what else can he do?He could only sigh, and said, "Since you said that, then... let's have a good cooperation."

Chu Xu took the initiative to stand up and extended his hand to Bian Hui.

Bian Hui got up and shook Chu Xu's hand back, making a contract with him.

"By the way, if it's convenient, can you give me the contact information of Liu's manager? She only has you as an artist. Since you want to sign a contract with me, she has no artist. I want to poach her." Chu Xu suddenly Think of something, say.

Manager Liu is an extremely experienced old manager.

But it has been many years since she retired without taking anyone with her. It was because of Bian Hui's background that his father invited Liu's manager out after he came out of the mountain. He only brought Bian Hui as an artist, and it took so many years.

Bian Hui frowned: "Are you asking Sister Liu to be your agent? She is already old and may not be able to afford such a heavy workload. That's why I decided to terminate the contract with her in advance and sign with you. "

Bian Hui felt sorry for Manager Liu's body, and didn't want to make her work anymore.

"No, ask her to be a manager's consultant, a teacher... I won't let her old man do any heavy work, as long as she occasionally gives lectures to our company's manager as a teacher." Chu Xuru said.

He also knew that Manager Liu was old and had a bad heart.

After hearing this, Bian Hui felt at ease: "If that's the case, then that's fine."

In this way, Chuxu has another niche leader whose acting skills are enough to aspire to be the best actor, but he has not won the leader of the best actor, and Xichu Entertainment has another ace agent recognized in the industry as a broker consultant.

Manager Liu has not been a professional broker for many years, but now most of the brokers in the industry are her apprentices.
