After becoming the son of the boss [entertainment circle]

No one except Li Xianyin knew what was going on in Li Xianyin's mind. Even those assistants could only receive tasks from him at a fixed time. No one knew what he wanted to do except himself.

After entering the names on the paper into the mobile phone memo, the report given by the information agency was thrown into the safe again.

This kind of macro plan is enough to know in mind, everything still needs to be done step by step, such as changing the brokerage contracts of artists, he thinks that this kind of topic that involves personal interests needs to be done separately It can only be confirmed after the conversation.

After all, when he creates panic for the outside world, the artists at home will also feel the same uneasiness. A direct dialogue with him, the big boss, can alleviate this negative emotion very well, especially if there are many people in the subsidiary that they don't know at all. Artists, even if there is no substantive communication, face-to-face conversation is still necessary.

And everyone's development path is different. He came back from the future anyway, and some fresh ideas about planning can also be exchanged. Anyway, he has got rid of anxiety now, and he is in a good mood to talk to artists all day.

After yesterday’s notice, those who can come to talk immediately today are generally actors and entertainers on vacation. Most of them are middle-aged actors who debuted in the early and mid-90s. They are not idol actors themselves, so they don’t pursue any star power. A group of people who even have children have a lot less ambition.

For these elders, Li Xianyin didn't talk for too long. They were all in a state of acting as long as there was a show. It was completely meaningless to talk about brilliant future plans. He only needed to maintain proper respect for these people.

Of course, a large part of these people will not be renewed after the contract expires. Even if the company's main revenue in the future does not come from artists, the terms of the brokerage contract have been changed for you to be so superior. If you don't work hard and don't have the slightest self-motivation, why should the company renew your contract?

Do you think you are Song Kanghao?Thinking about not starting work for a year or so and staying at home with the children, and making movies that are box office champions?

It’s better to have sweet dreams at night, so that everyone can stay awake during the day.

In addition to several middle-aged actors, Li Xianyin also met Zhang Nala, a well-known actress in China, on the morning of the [-]th.

Zhang Nala made her debut in 01. At that time, the planning was actually to train her as a singer, and her appearance was also the appearance that SM, or Li Xiuman would like. After releasing her debut album at that time, she also won the best newcomer of the year, and followed the routine Participated in SBS Gayo Daejeon at the end of the year.

It's just that she prefers acting, and she was admitted to the School of Drama in college. She was lucky, and after acting in two plays, she became a blockbuster. Now she is mainly active as an actor.

Since last year, Zhang Nara has started filming in China. Although the Korean wave has begun to sweep the surrounding countries, it is not yet at its peak. There are not too many Korean actors going to China for activities, and Zhang Nara is the most famous among them.

She will go to China to film at this time because of many factors. In 04, the official selection of her as the China-Korea friendship ambassador is partly because SM wants to push her into the China market to make money. As a well-behaved and filial daughter, Zhang Nala’s Father likes Huaxia TV dramas very much, which is one of the reasons why she went to Huaxia.

In terms of results, this decision has brought Zhang Nala a new peak in her career. Her appearance fee in China has been increasing by a considerable amount every time. This is a good thing for SM, after all, they are also promoting artists. If there is a cost, the expectation is of course to double the earning back.

But the problem is, now Zhang Nala's father hopes that SM can let her daughter sign another agency in China, and take full charge of performing arts activities in China.

This is tantamount to provocation. As an artist trained by SM from the trainee period, Zhang Nara’s management contract, record contract and acting contract in all regions of the world are all in the hands of SM. The market-responsible group only gave Ai Hui the record contract in Japan, which is good for you, as soon as you come up, you will be the management contract of the whole China.

This is almost equivalent to the fact that all of Zhang Nala's SM activities in Huaxia only have the right to share money, and the rest of the control rights have almost disappeared.

And once the artistes are all operated by Huaxia, the share for SM will be very low. After all, people contribute their efforts. Compared with SM, a party that doesn't need to do anything, it seems that they should really share more money.

But the problem is, Zhang Nala is originally an artist of SM, so she doesn't need to work for others at all, and even if she sells Huaxia's management contract, many people will treat her as an artist of SM, so as to give her more face, this part of invisible protection is like this She had forgotten about it, so how about a small share to send off the beggars!

If this person stays in Huaxia and never comes back, the whole company will be for nothing, right?It's better to leave early!

Not to mention the original management of the company, Li Xianyin, who originally wanted to have a good talk with all the artists, couldn't bear it. This kind of proposal was no longer a matter of negotiating and lowering the price. The other party just wanted to go to a bigger company. Just making excuses.

SM’s current rookie general contract is seven years. Jang Nara, who debuted in 01, should leave the company completely in 08. Making such a request now is a simple negotiation, but only the person concerned knows whether it actually has a threatening meaning .

"The subject of our conversation this time is about the Huaxia brokerage appointment we mentioned last time." Li Xianyin still had a smile on his lips, and he didn't show his face because of some previous conflicts. Any negotiation is taboo to act emotionally. At least before he started talking, he shouldn't be angry because some news was retweeted how many times.

"It is impossible for the company to agree to transfer all of Huaxia's management contracts. If only the record contract is still negotiable." Zhang Nala recently had the idea of ​​releasing an album in Huaxia, but the current mainland record market is not so prosperous, and the album cannot make much money. .

This part of the benefit SM can still give up, the key is that the other party is not satisfied with only getting this little thing, the whole conversation is an appearance of "I'm sorry but I still stick to my own ideas", and will not give up the brokerage appointment in China. , it seems that there is no way to talk about anything else.

"You should know that SM also has a dedicated actor planning agency now. The resources will get better and better in the future, and we also have contacts in China. Why don't you experience it in S.MC&C for the next two years. You have already passed the most difficult time. At the stage of accumulating fame, there is a lot of time and leeway to think about your future direction and development."

Li Xianyin's mouth is dry, and anyone with a discerning eye can see clearly that SM is turning a corner and driving towards a spacious fast lane. Although the car may suddenly overturn on the way to the turn, but until the end, no one can tell what SM will do. where to go.

If Li Xianyin is allowed to complete the layout, the artists including the signing will have a big backer, and no one is willing to make any remarks that will make the company dissatisfied when the situation is not yet clear.

But Zhang Nala is different. Facing Li Xianyin's earnest words, she can only show an apologetic smile, "My father thinks that I should use my current influence in China to try my best to enter the film industry. If it takes another two years, maybe There is no such good opportunity..."

The apology on the girl's face seemed quite sincere, but there was no sign of letting go of what she said, so that Li Xianyin clicked his tongue, feeling that he had been doing useless work all this time.

What she meant was that SM's film resources were not good enough. Even with an actor subsidiary company, the film industry around the world is much more difficult to enter than the TV industry. If you miss the bonus brought by fame this time, it may not be so Great opportunity.

In fact, Zhang Nala has also starred in movies, and the results are not bad, but there is still some distance from the box office champion and breaking out of Korea. She obviously wants to use the opportunity of starring in Chinese movies to expand her popularity in the whole of Asia, and SM in She doesn't seem to be able to provide much resources and help for her career anymore.

To put it bluntly, this girl just doesn't agree with Li Xianyin's statement that "there is a lot of time and leeway". Both she and her father think that time is running out and there is no need to think about it. wait for no one.

The two people have very different ideas from the basic concept to the future, which leads to the longer the conversation, the more unhappy the two parties are from the bottom of their hearts, and there is no progress at all.

The conversation finally came to the ending that Li Xianyin tried to avoid at the beginning. He sincerely hoped that Zhang Nala could settle herself down when she seemed to be at the peak of her career, and not rush to accept new works, otherwise impetuous emotions might make her acting career difficult. There are some troubles in life.

However, the other party has always been ungrateful, so at work, family members are a very troublesome group, and he doesn't believe that Zhang Nala's current thoughts are not guided by her father.

Her father is still thinking about her daughter's development prospects in essence, because the previous contract was too harsh, and she doesn't trust SM at all from the bottom of her heart. Whether you change the president or integrate the company, they will treat it as invisible, anyway, you are A vampire company!

I don't listen, I don't listen, I have to gradually transfer the management contract, and wait for 08 to leave SM more smoothly. It really gave Li Xianyin a bit of a headache. After thinking about it all night, he finally gave up.

Originally, this large-scale modification of the brokerage contract is a great thing for the artists. It increases the share, cancels some unreasonable personal restrictions, agrees that artists can apply for a new brokerage contract every three years, and works hard to create a stable relationship for the company. Valuable artists can open their own labels and studios, and work with the company for 12 years before splitting rooms...

Some clauses are very common in China, but they are refreshing in South Korea. The superiority of the new contract can be said to be the best in the South Korean entertainment industry, but it’s just like this, so I have to talk to him so much, so that he and the idiot who took the initiative to give benefits Same!

"Let Zhang Nala's manager convey the message to her. If she wants to leave, she can terminate the contract early without waiting until 08. The company is just in the process of contract restructuring. It is easy to clear people. SM does not support idlers, nor Support people who are idle all day and want to change jobs.”

In fact, most of its artists need to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages for early termination of the contract. The minimum payment is 30 billion won. If it is a popular group like Toshin, the liquidated damages will be paid directly in proportion to the total income over the years, basically no less than tens of billions.

This clause is the only one in the current contract that Li Xianyin does not plan to make any changes. If he breaches the contract, he will have to pay money. If you leave as soon as you say, I don’t want to lose face? !

He doesn't care about liquidated damages now, and it's very benevolent to let those who don't want to continue to cooperate directly leave. This is a rare opportunity. After the contract restructuring is over and everyone has changed to a new contract, no matter who wants to leave, he will have to pay him money.

During this period of decision-making, they had better not take other actions. Making excuses for themselves before terminating the contract is what many artists will do, and most of the time it is the company that is scolded. If this happens, Li Xian Yin might go back on his word in a fit of anger, and first ask someone to accompany him to pay a sky-high price for breach of contract. He really hates being maliciously spread rumors.

Li Xianyin: Don’t tell me that this kind of breach of contract clause may be rejected because it is too harsh in law. I’m sorry, but now I say that it complies with the law and it complies with the law. What kind of onion are you!

Do you think I bought so many law firms because I invited people to go home and gather to play mahjong? :)

After making the phone call early in the morning, Li Xianyin felt a lot happier. He is not the management of the company who wants to win every bit of profit, and nothing can compare to his own happiness.

What about popular artists?Not to mention that Zhang Nala is not popular yet, even if she really reaches the national level, it is not worth mentioning in front of the power of capital. Anyway, he has already offered benefits and conditions, and if he does not accept being pulled down, most of them are obedient Children come to welcome.

On the morning of the [-]th, Li Xianyin met Park Jung-soo.

Compared to some time ago, his complexion is much better, probably because the company is preparing a new album for SJ recently, and the members' hard work has finally paid off, and they are happy in themselves, and they have seen the first version of the new contract in advance , the average person can have a feeling of "bright future", and naturally there is no reason for the already good mood to turn bad.

"Long time no see, how have you been recently?"

Because it is a child who has gotten along with each other, even though the meeting time is short, Li Xianyin can also say something different from the others at the beginning. Responding, he winked at him—a wink.

"Thanks to the president, everyone is in a good mood recently."

Because of his frivolous actions, Li Xianyin, who took the initiative to speak, was a bit tactful. This kid had never been so lively, and his sudden behavior almost made him think that this person was stimulated by something.

It really conveyed the happy mood completely.

"Have you read the contract?"

"Nai, I've seen it, President, you are an angel!"

Li·Xian·Angel·yin was suddenly praised: "..." This kid is really not normal today...

Although I feel that the captain of his family is very excited today, considering that Park Jung-soo is only under 23 years old this year, that is, the age of just graduating from university, sometimes it is understandable to be a little excited, and Li Xianyin did not entangle too much here.

"Today we will discuss some details of the contract. Because SJ has a large number of members, the contract will be replaced in batches. The new contract will last for seven years. It can be renewed every three years under the artist's application. SM has the right to renew the contract one year before the contract expires. Years to discuss appointment matters..."

Since Shinhwa’s contract expired and left collectively, the contracts of all members of SM’s group members were not signed at the same time, with a time difference of a few months to half a year, just to avoid the situation where a group was all poached.

Taking SJ as an example, due to the large number of members, there is almost a one-year time difference between the first member to sign and the last member to sign, and the contract expiration time is naturally different.

This point must be kept, it is one of the means to ensure the interests of the company, but no matter what he says, Park Jung-soo looks good, okay, okay, if it is not for confirming that what he has experienced is reality, Lee Hyun-yin almost Thought everything was farce.

After all, the girl who sat in the same position as Zhengzhu yesterday couldn't say anything, and the two of them had a completely extreme attitude.

"You don't need to give an answer so quickly. What I said to you today can be taken home and discussed with the members before making a decision."

"It's okay! We've already discussed it." Saying this, Park Jung-soo, who was sitting across from Lee Hyun-in, pressed his elbows on the table and moved forward, "President Nim, after signing the new contract, it will be official in 12 years." Have you started counting?"

Last month, SM issued a statement about the 12-year cooperation, but there is no clear notice internally, and everyone is guessing when this much-anticipated policy will be officially implemented.

Some people who are too optimistic still think that it would be great if the "service length" can be counted from the time they joined the company. After all, many behind-the-scenes personnel have worked in SM for four or five years. After staying in SM for seven or eight years, it seems that I can get an expensive house in a short time.

However, this is just a beautiful thought. If it is really calculated like that, it is too easy to get a house in Jiangnan District, which many people will never be able to afford in their lifetime.

Things that are easy to get are not cherished to the greatest extent.

"Yes, from the day the new contract is signed."

After hearing Li Xianyin's accurate response, Park Jung-soo's chatterbox was completely opened up, which was comparable to a complete collection of questions, "Then after signing the contract, will the share be changed immediately? What about the itinerary that has been recorded before but has not been paid yet?" ?”

"Is the house registered for us? Can the children go to the surrounding elementary schools? Or is it simply the right of residence?"

"If an exclusive label for the group is established, who will pay for the cost of the songs and the album?"

"..."

As a team leader, he has thought very comprehensively, which almost made Li Xianyin laugh helplessly. Yesterday he talked about practical interests with artists, but they insisted on talking about dreams with him. Today he started talking about dreams and ideals, but It's Park Jung-soo's turn to talk reality to him.

But this is actually the survival method of large groups. The more people there are, the more conflicts there will be. Everyone has different personalities and intolerable points. At that time, a little dissatisfaction will spread into an unmanageable state. In order to protect the team, any Every detail should be confirmed.

We are not fairies, so we don’t have to consider reality and interests. We have to eat, survive, and consider our parents and brothers and sisters. This is the life of a normal adult. Only when everyone gets what they deserve can they have feelings. In other words, the team leader is the bridge between the group and the company. If you have any questions, you should ask them boldly. Otherwise, if there are problems in the future, the two sides will only have to pass the buck to each other.

Because of understanding, Li Xianyin was very patient, and it was the first time he really knew what Lao Li meant by "reliable". Zhengzhu even brought a small notebook to remember all the things that should be communicated clearly, probably because he was afraid that he would be on the spot When you get nervous, forget about it.

The number of members determines that Lee Hyun-yin and Park Jung-soo spend a lot of time talking. Apart from the more realistic parts, the future career development that each member wants to have is different. In addition to the desire of the lead singers to come up with a solo album, some people I want to act.

Among them, Qi Fan's desire to film is the strongest. He has filmed TV dramas before, and together with Heechul, they are the two people with the highest appearance rate in the entire SJ in TV dramas. However, Heechul does not have a strong desire to keep filming. During the itinerary, he picks and chooses and looks at the state of going, but Qi Fan never lets go of his heart of being an actor.

SJ is an experimental group. Just from the perspective of appearance and personality, the company is not so optimistic about the development of SJ as an actor. The resources invested are not to mention, and most of them are routine idol dramas. The probability of producing hits is too low. .

"Now is not a good time to be an actor. Although we have S.MC&C, we don't have our own screenwriters, directors and TV stations. There are many restrictions on promotion channels. It's not right to waste a lot of time on behind-the-scenes filming. What a rookie idol should do."

Li Xianyin thinks that Qi Fan’s dream of being an actor can wait a little longer, at least it is more realistic to wait for SJ to come back two or three times. At that time, most members can develop themselves for a period of time. He doesn’t like to force a person who wants to be an actor. Going to sing, it turns out that doing something you don't like is always not as spiritual as doing something you like.

But people have already made their debut with SJ, and it’s useless to say more. If you choose to sign a contract at the beginning, you have to bear the consequences of waiting. As SJ is a product of the company, it’s better to keep it in a complete state. For the group soul thing, at least until the group became popular, Li Xianyin didn't allow anyone to leave.

Park Jung-soo originally had no intention of forcing the president to give resources. Today's exchange is mainly to let both parties have an idea of ​​the future. Sometimes even if it is only a verbal promise, even if it is only a vague time point, it can make people feel at ease. A lot, after all, Li Xianyin is a president with no black history.

He has never done anything to deceive artists, and there is nothing negative about it. According to rumors, no one has ever said that his character and reputation are not good. On the contrary, all his actions since he took office can be called miracles. Such a person is completely trustworthy once.

But after hearing the president's words, Park Jung-soo's focus is still distorted, screenwriter?director?TV station? ! ! Is S.MC&C going to prepare such a big deal? !

What's going on when I suddenly feel a breath of money blowing towards my face!

The focus was tilted, and the lunch break was over by the time the two of them talked, and Li Xianyin didn't intend to stay with Jung-soo for dinner. He was already going home to take a nap at the moment, and lunch might be settled downstairs at home. , not suitable for bringing individuals together.

"By the way, President, this is... your fan station's birthday gift to Mrs. Jin. Because the guards didn't help them forward it to you, it was delivered one day late."

Park Zhengsu handed over a dark red velvet box, because the box was tied with a bow tie with a gift ribbon, Li Xianyin couldn't open it on the spot to see what it was, and he was not the owner of this gift in a serious way. Before he came to dismantle it, I could only look up blankly at Park Jung-soo who had stood up from his position.

"Do I still have a fan station?!"

This is amazing, who can tell him who the public can't follow? !Is it possible to find such a cult like Li Jianxi fan station after searching?
