Love at public expense in the name of making stars

Liang Han put down his phone, originally thinking "Qin Zhijian and Xie Shaoting know each other, can you help me to make a game?" When he closed his eyes and was about to fall asleep, what he thought in his mind became "Could Xie Shaoting be gay too?" .

Half an hour later, Liang Han opened his eyes without any sleepiness, picked up his phone and checked Xie Shaoting's circle of friends again.

At his age and position, how could it be possible for him to be a straight man in China without being married and without children?

Liang Han looked around, except for the photo of Xie Shaoting embracing his mother on Mother's Day, he never saw any family-related information.

Putting down the phone again, turning off the light and closing his eyes, Liang Han thought, Xie Shaoting must be crooked.

Is that 1 or 0?What does it have to do with Qin Zhijian...

Qin Zhijian's type is not a natural dish in the gay circle, but there must be someone who jumps up.But Xie Shaoting is old, Qin Zhijian should not have an affair with him because of the project.

Liang Han fell asleep while thinking, but fortunately he didn't have any too outrageous dreams, but he was forced to wash his underwear first when he got up the next day.

He took a look around at his mutual friends with Xie Shaoting, and finally decided not to make too many circles. When he got to work, he sent a WeChat message directly to Xie Shaoting.

"Hello Mr. Xie, I'm Liang Han, the casting director of Xingtu Casting. When is it convenient for you, can I buy you a coffee?"

I thought Xie Shaoting would not reply, but unexpectedly the other party sent a location.It is the office building of Arctic Video, and Xie Shaoting immediately replied: "I'm here all day, please tell me in advance if you are coming soon, I will go downstairs."

Liang Han got excited for a while, prepared some company information, took a detour to a nearby shopping mall to buy a bottle of men's perfume as a gift, and drove there in person.

Beiji Video has its own office building in the Wangjing area, and the bottom store has a Starbucks, and Liang Han waits for Xie Shaoting there.It has snowed twice in Beijing, so it is extremely cold outdoors. Even when driving, Liang Han is used to wearing down jackets.

But Xie Shaoting opened the door and came in, but he was wearing a camel-colored wool coat, and a gray-black plaid scarf was loosely hung around his neck. go.

Liang Han got up and shook hands with the other party again, "Hi, Mr. Xie."

Xie Shaoting nodded, motioning for Liang Han to sit down first, "I'm going to order a cup of coffee, what do you want?"

"Let me come, Mr. Xie." Liang Han pretended to grab the order, but Xie Shaoting smiled, "You don't have to be so polite, you drive over, I will do the landlord's favor, it's a matter of course."

A cup of coffee costs only a few tens of dollars, so it really doesn't make much sense to grab it.Liang Han stopped and said with a smile, "Then latte, thank you."

After a while, Xie Shaoting came over with two cups of coffee and put them in front of Liang Han. He sat down calmly, and before Liang Han could speak, he said, "That day at Ya Ying Film and Television, I really had something to do at night, so I couldn't make it to the appointment. It can be seen that you have a lot of ideas, so you might as well speak up if you have anything to say."

As expected, the other party had been immersed in the industry for many years, with piercing eyes, he could see through Liang Han's thoughts at once.

Liang Han pretended to be a little embarrassed and said: "It's my villainous heart, which makes Mr. Xie laugh."

Xie Shaoting waved his hand, lowered his head and took a sip of coffee, signaling Liang Han to get down to business.

Liang Han saw that the other party was so frank and straightforward, so he simply didn't go around in circles, "Mr. Xie, I would like to ask what new projects Arctic Video has this year? Is there any chance to cooperate with you?"

Xie Shaoting laughed when he heard the words, "You are really impatient, Siqi has already recommended you to me, I wanted to wait until the Chinese New Year is over before asking you out for a chat."

While talking, Xie Shaoting took his mobile phone and sent a PPT to Liang Han, "This is the project plan for the four seasons of Arctic Video next year. We only have three self-produced dramas in the first half of the year. The focus of the platform Q1 and Q2 will be on talent shows and variety shows first. , but we will launch seven self-produced dramas in the second half of the year, take a look, if anyone is interested, I can send you a script, and we can discuss it in advance."

Xie Shaoting is very direct and doesn't hide anything. It seems that he has heard about Liang Han for a long time, and out of trust in his ability, he quickly expressed his intention to cooperate.

However, Liang Han skimmed through the PPT, but did not show the flattery that Xie Shaoting expected.

He has the recklessness of some young people on his face, but his advances and retreats are very measured.Liang Han smiled slightly, and tentatively said: "Mr. Xie has the overall situation in mind, and the projects are very attractive. Whether it is an IP adaptation or an original script, they all seem to be gimmicks, but..."

Xie Shaoting raised his thick eyebrows, "What? You still don't like our drama?"

"Of course not. I want to establish a deeper cooperative relationship with Mr. Xie. What we have done in the past two years of Starcasting is not only to strive for the most cost-effective actors for the film studio, but also to choose the actors who really care about us. He is an artist who can add value to the film crew and maximize the benefits of the project. Therefore, when every play is broadcast, the actors have sparks and the script is well presented. Based on this ability, I imagine that it can be Through you, let Xingtu Casting and Arctic Video establish a strategic cooperation, we can contract the casting of at least five dramas of Arctic Video, and provide more comprehensive services."

Xie Shaoting was stunned for a while after listening, and after a while, he himself laughed, "Liang Han, you are quite interesting. Many managers want to cooperate with us strategically. They want platform resources, and we want artist traffic. But What's the use of cooperating with a casting company and a platform? Apart from guaranteeing you more work, we don't have any mutual benefits between us!"

Liang Han could hear some mockery in Xie Shaoting's tone.

Most of today's casting directors have no culture, and even if they do, they don't have a deep understanding of the industry.People who really study film or production background will not choose to be an assistant director, and naturally they will not have the opportunity to sit in front of the person in charge of a platform business group and talk about it.Xie Shaoting probably thought that he had just learned a new term of "strategic cooperation", so he came here to make a joke.

Liang Han didn't feel offended, but was very humble, "Of course, compared with artist agents, we really don't have that much effect on the platform. But just like producers can bypass the casting team and directly find actors, but the casting company It is still growing and thriving in Hollywood. When a platform learns about an artist, the artist is usually already popular. The traffic of the other party is close, even if it is an individual, it can compete with the big platform. And our advantage as a casting team , is to be able to find that potential but not popular artist through the project, and help the platform to build relationships in advance and share benefits."

The corner of Xie Shaoting's mouth raised slightly, he understood what Liang Han wanted to say.

Nowadays, the platform needs traffic artists, but the position is always awkward.Too much traffic will not offend other platforms and cooperate with one platform alone. Newcomers want to cooperate, but the platform does not like it.The most suitable ones are artists in the mid-range position. Appropriate resource tilt, coupled with the artist's own qualifications, may be able to have one plus one greater than two effects.

What Xingtu Casting wants to do is to participate in this artist selection process.

Not only to select actors for self-produced drama projects, but also to select qualified artists for the platform, and further cooperation in the future.

What Liang Han wanted to sell was his own vision.

"Boss Xiaoliang's idea is good, but it's too risky. Besides, you still haven't discovered what our platform needs most." Xie Shaoting smiled mysteriously. He had some affection for Liang Han, but this affection had not yet reached the point where he could speak out. pointing point.He glanced at his watch and said succinctly, "We plan to launch new plays at the end of February and March, and we haven't decided which casting team to use yet. I'll ask my assistant to send the script to you on WeChat. You choose one, and we will send it to you." Let’s cooperate first. As for the in-depth relationship you mentioned, let’s talk about it after you have figured it out for yourself.”

Xie Shaoting stood up, his time was precious and limited, what he gave to Liang Han was considered generous.

He was about to leave.

Liang Han was a little unwilling to let the other party go like this, and wanted to say something more. He followed Xie Shaoting to the door of Starbucks, and then he remembered, "I watched Mr. Xie's circle of friends, and there is a new drama about to start. The hero is Duan Linqiu?"

Xie Shaoting didn't think he was taking it too seriously, and replied casually: "Yes, Xiao Duan is a good seed. I see he has a lot of fans. I hope there will be some movement in the new drama."

"His manager is Qin Zhijian, who is now also the manager of the heroine Hai Xing of "Chan Sheng Bar Love", which was introduced by me. The show hasn't started yet, and I see that the heroine has gained more than 30 followers on Weibo. Come on, I heard that many projects are contacting her, and she has a lot of business, compared to the same age as the same age as Xiaohua, she is very popular."

Xie Shaoting paused, "I know her, you really chose this one well."

Liang Han originally wanted to show his vision in selecting artists. Female artists are the hardest to get ahead, but Xingmei is now on the accelerator and rising. Doesn't this just show his uniqueness?

However, before Liang Han could continue to speak, Xie Shaoting looked at him and said, "You are vicious in choosing candidates. Besides Lu Siqi, Qin Zhijian, the boss of Avenue Brokerage, also praised you. Otherwise, I wouldn't promise so easily, You can choose a cooperation from the self-produced dramas on our platform. But you still don’t understand what I want to tell you. The starfish you mentioned is a good example. You can go back and think about it. She is now winning at the starting line What is the reason? That is the magic weapon we want most on our platform."

After saying this, Xie Shaoting put on his coat and walked away.

Liang Han stood there, stunned... Qin Zhijian also spoke for him in front of Xie Shaoting?

Xie Shaoting is the vice president of Arctic Video, in charge of the large business group of film and television production.Liang Han had never met him before, how could Qin Zhijian praise him to him?

He squeezed the phone tightly, feeling an indescribable joy in his heart.

Although Liang Han failed to get a hit, he was in a very happy mood when he drove back to the company.

Xie Shaoting's assistant added WeChat to him, and quickly sent two project documents for Liang Han to review.Liang Han returned to the company, turned on the computer, and read it himself.Both projects are web adaptations, one is the growth and love of men and women in the urban workplace, and the other is a purely romantic urban romance.

The difference is not too big, and it is hard to say what depth.

Liang Han sighed, knowing that Xie Shaoting should only be optimistic about him because of "Chan Sheng Bar Love", so the projects pushed are all IP works.

He simply chose the second one, which is relatively simple when you look at the emotional relationship. Anan has been in charge of Yaying Film and Television's new drama "Looking for the Secret" for a long time. Liang Han handed over this project to Henry Zhang, and also planned to let him experience it. .

After sending a reply to Xie Shaoting, Liang Han stared at the chat box of the two, and remembered Xie Shaoting's last words when they parted.

At first, Liang Han only cared about Qin Zhijian's relationship, but when he calmed down now, Liang Han seemed to have opened up the two channels of Ren and Du, and suddenly understood.

Xie Shaoting was using Xingmei as a hint to him. Although the platform needs a pair of eyes that can pick people up, what it needs more is a pair of hands that hold people up.

Xingmei has been controversial since the casting was first decided, but now she is full of expectations and keeps increasing her fans. She is recognized by major brands as the dark horse Xiaohua who will be popular next year. In the final analysis, it is because of Qin Zhijian's operation behind the scenes.

Although she has extraordinary aptitude, she was lucky enough to meet a work like "Chan Sheng Bar Love", but if there is no Qin Zhijian, today's star girl will only be bad-mouthed by the whole network.Even if she is lucky enough to become popular, she may soon be like Han Yun, passing by like a shooting star, without a peak.

No wonder Arctic Video is willing to cooperate with brokerage companies. They are not only interested in the actors in front of the scene, but also in the operation behind the scenes.

If Liang Han wants to persuade Arctic Video to establish a deep relationship, then the operator must enter the game together.

He needs Qin Zhijian.

The author has something to say: career letter.
