It's not easy to be a supermodel [Comprehensive British American American Entertainment]

Letty's eyes widened in shock: "Brokerage company? Are you kidding me?"

"Sound crazy?" Martin asked.

She blurted out: "There has never been a precedent for a model to open an agency..."

"But you have set a lot of 'precedents'." The agent lay back and changed to a more comfortable sitting position, "is it more difficult to start a modeling agency than to create a personal brand? Anyway, you have a brand as the backing, It's not that you don't have money, when you don't become a model in the future, you can sign other models to make money for yourself."

Martin himself carefully analyzed the feasibility, and concluded that it is logically feasible.But it is only logically that the agency and the brand are two completely different companies. Although the purpose is to make money, the brand makes money through physical products, while the agency makes money by signing potential models. Well, letting them make money for the company is also a kind of "commodity" to some extent- anyway, that's how the company has always viewed Letty.

However, running a brokerage company is not easier than running a brand. The reason why LetitiaL. was able to succeed in the early stage is largely because of Letitia's influence. The most important thing for a brand is the confidence of consumers and the confidence of consumers. Their attraction, and Letty's easy access to the confidence of fans who adore her.

However, a brokerage company operates in a completely different way. Letty has the ability to attract fans, but is she capable of attracting potential models to sign with the agency?She is a supermodel but not a gold medal agent. Girls who intend to become professional models will not join her company just because Letty is famous. They are naturally more inclined to big companies such as IMG, WOMEN, and NEXT, because they have most abundant resource.

To attract other models, you must first have rich resources; to have rich resources, you must first have experienced agents with extensive connections; but to have experienced agents, you must first have potential models... Where can I find one? It's a good question to approve agents who are willing to join a new agency, otherwise who would sign with an agency that can't properly help them develop?Even if this company belongs to a successful supermodel.

Of course, these problems are all based on the premise that Letty wants to develop a brokerage company well, otherwise she and Martin can fly solo. Anyway, even if Letty doesn't belong to any brokerage company, the job will still come to her. It may be more difficult to get some jobs that are more competitive.

Although Letty thought this proposal was absurd at first, she had to admit that her heart beat faster and faster after listening to Martin's words.

...Wait, it sounds like it's really feasible, right? !

She suppressed the surge in her heart and kept thinking rationally: "But even if I am interested, where can we find an agent who is willing to join? Without an agent, we cannot sign a contract with a model."

Martin pondered for a moment, and said: "It is already the limit for me to be responsible for three clients at the same time. I must spend the most time on you. Maybe we can start with 'small business'."

"Like a studio?"

"Yes."

Small is better than small, and big is better. Although the resources of small companies are not as rich as those of large companies, the competition is relatively small. The resources of large companies are all tilted towards Tamo, and it is difficult for newcomers to stand out.

To be honest, Letty doesn't care which agency she signs with. Anyway, her agent is Martin, which will not change, and no agency means freedom.

She was somewhat touched by Martin's determination to follow her firm approach.

Because Martin knew that there would be no "Leticia Lopez" in the fashion industry in the next few years, how could he let her go after he had put so much effort into this girl?Speaking of brokers and clients, they know each other more as friends rather than pure interests. His feelings for the company are not that deep. If he had to choose between the company and Letty, he would definitely choose Letty.

It is Letty's greatest wish to continue to cooperate with Martin, let alone Martin is a top-notch agent in the industry, she is used to working with this dark-bellied uncle, and the tacit understanding formed after a long period of time makes their work easier Gongbei, she likes this way of getting along very much, changing a manager means starting all over again, Letty doesn't have such patience.

"In fact, companies such as IMG, NEXT and Elite are already testing my tone." Martin said, "Of course, it is the best result to be able to sign a company that will respect our wishes. After all, it is much more convenient to have a brokerage company." .”

Letty said helplessly: "I would like to, but can you accept such terms?"

Martin said optimistically: "The executives also know that all companies are eyeing you. She knows that if she wants to keep you, she must make concessions. So I think there is still a lot of room for bargaining in the share of joint rides. .”

"Now it's them who want to impress me, not me to impress them." Letty snorted coldly, "The big deal is to fly solo, anyway, losing me is their loss!"

……

Originally, Letty told Tony that he would go home at about nine o'clock, but there was no sign of anyone until eleven o'clock.

When Letty dragged his tired body back home, he saw the man sitting on the sofa and fell asleep. There was still a hand armor of Mark's size on his lap. It was probably being repaired before. Look at the posture. It seems that he fell asleep inadvertently.

Hearing the slight movement, Tony woke up immediately, the guard in his eyes faded the moment he saw the black-haired girl, and turned into the warmth she was familiar with.

Originally, I wanted to accuse Letty that the media wrote him as a poor supporting actor who was cuckolded, and she took Bruce Wayne to the award ceremony without taking his grievances, but after seeing the tired face of the brunette girl, Tony Changed his words: "How did the talk go?"

"It's still progressing." Letty replied weakly. She threw the tens of thousands of bags on the sofa casually, and then—rarely——actively nestled into the man's arms.

The recent tedious work has made her feel a little out of breath. The job of modeling alone is already enough, and now there is one more brand to manage, and she has to worry about contract renewal.

After an hour of negotiation, the company was reluctant to give in, reducing the original 30% share to 10% or [-] cents, while the general income share remained at [-] cents.

Leti doesn't know why the company is so determined to get a share from the joint venture, and doesn't give up part of the benefits to keep her. There are many companies that want to sign her. In other words, WOMEN needs to give her the best conditions to keep her. .

But after reading the contracts of other brokerage companies, she understood.

Because the vast majority of brokerage companies want to get her share of joint rides with other brands, some are 15%, some are 8%. She doesn’t know whether WOMEN has reached a consensus with other companies, or they just know about other companies’ contracts. The terms are so reckless.

It made Letty feel like a cash cow, surrounded by lumberjacks with greedy eyes.

If Leti wants to stay at WOMEN, or switch to another big company, she has to give up a small part of the income from collaborating with other brands in her own name, including Maybelline’s foundation, and there may be more products in the future .

As for the fact that a small company cannot accommodate her, it will not be considered for the time being.

Only when she gets home and sees this man who is always waiting for her at home, will she be completely relaxed.

Tony just lay down directly, the sofa big enough for two people was still spacious, Letty's head was resting in the man's arms, his hands were wrapped around his hands, and his eyes were closed.

This rare and proactive act of intimacy melted Tony's heart, and he forgot about the awards ceremony.

He gently stroked the black-haired girl's head like a cat, inserting his five fingers into the silky hair, the smooth silky touch makes people love his hands, he looked at her with unbelievably soft eyes, bringing a little bit of himself Unaware of pampering.

He said domineeringly: "If you don't sign, you won't sign. It's not that I can't afford you. If you really want to sign, I'll just buy your agency."

Letty glanced at the man's stubborn face wordlessly, then closed her eyes again, raised the corners of her mouth, tightened her hands holding his waist, and said in a more relaxed tone: "Why don't you put Chanel, Prada and Dior Buy them all at the same time? Just short of the endorsement of these three brands, I will be the top six blue blood."

Tony said indifferently: "I've wanted to do this for a long time, but you don't have to work so hard at all."

Leti already has many things that most people can't have in their lifetime, but she doesn't slow down. She has her own ideals and goals, and she keeps adding value to herself, and she is full of perseverance and unyielding. An irresistible charm.

When Tony knew her, she was just an ordinary girl, and now she was almost catching up to him in popularity.

"Instead of relying on Stark Industries, who doesn't know when it will go bankrupt, it's better to rely on myself!" Letty chuckled.

"... Stark Industries will not go bankrupt!"

Letty's laughter echoed throughout the large space, and she always liked to make jokes about Tony's company.

"Have you lost weight recently?" Tony asked.

He obviously felt that it was different from when he held Letty before. Although she was very thin, she still had flesh, but now she could even feel her bones.

"Is there?" Letty was too lazy to even open his eyes, "I don't have time to go to the gym recently, maybe it's because of muscle loss."

"I haven't seen you have a good meal these days." Tony said with a bit of accusation, "Go to work without eating, are you stupid?"

Letty opened his eyes in an instant, stared at him dissatisfied, and said, "Is this about you? Who stays in the laboratory all day and refuses to come out? Doesn't even sleep?"

"I am contributing to the country." A certain superhero said so confidently

In the end, the two who were bothered by sleepiness fell asleep on the sofa without knowing it, until they were awakened by the ringing of the mobile phone.

With half-opened eyes, Letty reached out and took out her cell phone from her bag.

"Hello? David?" Tony heard him call out in a slightly hoarse voice.

David?

Tony finally remembered that David was Letty's mother Isabella's boyfriend, the university professor, and the person in his arms suddenly sat up.

"Okay...Okay, I see, please take care of her first."

Tony slowly opened his eyelids and asked, "What's wrong?"

The black-haired girl's eyes were full of anxiety and helplessness, "David just called and said Isabella was in the hospital!"
