This actor needs more money

"Why are you two here too?"

Ding Xiu put his hands in his pockets and greeted Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo with a smile.

Huang Bo gently patted the collar of his suit and said calmly: "If you don't want to come, the organizer has been inviting me and I must honor you."

Wang Baoqiang smirked: "Me too, they said they wouldn't hold it if I didn't come."

One of them boasted louder than the other, but Ding Xiu didn't bother to listen and turned towards other acquaintances.

"Hi Binbin, long time no see. She looks even more beautiful."

"Brother Xiu, you still have a sweet mouth." After hugging Ding Xiu, Fan Binbin smiled sweetly and said: "Our film's post-production has been completed. It will compete at the International Film Festival in the second half of the year. Maybe you can win an international best actor." .”

Ding Xiu curled his lips, what an international movie star, isn't it just that he can't be screened in China?

He knew it well before filming, so it’s not surprising.

"Not to mention this, your contract in Huayi is about to expire. Should you do it alone or with me?"

He remembered that Fan Binbin's contract expired in the second half of this year, which was only a few months away.

If an actor changes jobs, there are generally two situations: the old employer will give him less, and the new employer will give him more.

Since Fan Binbin decided to leave, at this time, the rest must have been arranged.

To be honest, Ding Xiu still wanted to sign her to Qin Chao Entertainment. After all, she was a first-line female artist and a popular one. Looking at the mainland entertainment industry, she could count on one hand the women who were more popular than her.

Even if she doesn't need to make money, signing a contract with the company as the God of Wealth will be a big spread for the company's reputation.

Fan Binbin smiled playfully: "What are the benefits of working with you?"

"Or what can you give me?"

Ding Xiu pondered for a few seconds: "If you have any requests, just ask."

"Really, can you ask for anything?"

"able!"

A proposal is a proposal, a promise is a promise, Ding Xiu is not stupid, no matter whether it works or not, just listen first and then talk.

Blinking, Fan Binbin narrowed his eyes and whispered: "Then what do I want from you?"

Ding Xiu immediately smiled and said: "Hey, I thought it was a big deal. Just give me a call and I'll be there at your call. I'll bring my own whip, candle, and rope."

Fan Binbin took a sip, rolled his eyes and said, "What you have in mind is quite beautiful. I won't make fun of you anymore. I'm going to set up a studio to work alone and serve me alone from now on."

"But if you are willing to come, I welcome you with both hands."

Ding Xiu shrugged: "What's the use of raising your hands? Raising your feet is almost the same."

Huang Xiaoming, who was passing behind the two of them, heard this and stopped and coughed: "Ahem!"

He underestimated Ding Xiu, an LSP, who dared to say dirty things to a beautiful woman like Fan Binbin without being ashamed or shameful at all.

But he was so jealous that his teeth almost broke.

Because Fan Binbin wasn't angry at all and was still smiling.

I heard that the two of them took a photo of an apple. The scale was so large that Ding Xiu, a beast, didn’t even need a stand-in. He was so special that all good things happened to him.

When Huang Xiaoming's warning was not heard, Ding Xiu continued to say to Fan Binbin: "I've heard you say the word studio several times. Is this different from a brokerage company?"

Thinking he was interested, Fan Binbin patiently explained: "Actually, there is no difference. You can think of the studio as a small agency, but this company only serves me."

"Publicity, drama selection, commercial performances, endorsements, variety shows, public relations, legal affairs, all departments revolve around me."

"Of course, the benefits are definitely more than this. If you set up a studio, the remuneration tax belongs to the company, and the proportion paid is different from that of individuals..."

After listening to her explanation, Ding Xiu seemed to have opened the door to a new world, saying that he had learned it. Huang Xiaoming, who had not yet left, was fascinated by this. He was obviously moved, but his heart was still beating. His contract had not expired yet and he could not leave for the time being. Don't want to leave either.

The company is promoting him, and only a fool will leave.

Fan Binbin said: "At present, I am the only one in the entertainment industry who runs a studio. It is like crossing the river by feeling for stones. But as long as I cross the river, I will be the first to eat crabs and gain a lot."

"I have carefully studied this model, and it is the most suitable for high-end artists to survive. There is no other model. Just watch, it will definitely be a trend in the future."

When an actor develops to a certain level and has his own connections and resources, the company becomes a burden to the artist.

Take her as an example. Nowadays, when film studios come to her for filming, they call her directly on her mobile phone without going through the company at all.

What’s sad is that even though I received the resources, the company still had to take a commission from them.

Forget it once or twice. As long as you are still in the company, you will continue to take commissions. Who can withstand it as time goes by?

There are only two ways for the company to solve this problem, either to reduce the commission, or to give a part of the shares to the artist, transforming the artist's status from an employee to a partner.

But Huayi couldn't do either of the above, so she had no choice but to leave.

Another reason why I want to be a studio instead of an agency is that I don’t want to train new people, which would be too tiring and take a lot of time and energy.

Ding Xiu's climb in the entertainment industry is relatively fast. It took him six years to get to where he is today. If it had been anyone else, he would have been struggling on the third level for six years. The money he earned was not as much as he invested, which was not cost-effective.

Looking at Ding Xiu, Fan Binbin smiled and said: "Of course, your Qin Chao Entertainment model is okay for the time being, but it won't last long. In the future, if there are more artists, the shares will be diluted. If you want to retain people, you will either have to go public or leave. There is no third way to the studio.”

Ding Xiu thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that what Fan Binbin said made sense. Unexpectedly, she was not very educated and young, but she had quite a business acumen and vision.

"Our company has a small number of people. This can last ten or eight years for the time being. Let's talk about the future later. It's pointless to think about it now."

Fan Binbin shook his head with complicated eyes: "It's really meaningless."

How many people does Qin Chao Entertainment have? There are even fewer shares. Ding Xiu and Qin Gang only have shares. If they want to completely dilute the shares, why do they need ten or eight more artists, and they are still top-notch ones.

It is said that ten or eight years are fast, but maybe fifteen or six years.

Fan Binbin jumped over Ding Xiu and focused on Huang Xiaoming behind him: "Xiao Ming, are you interested in coming to my studio? The treatment is no worse than Huayi."

Huang Xiaoming smiled bitterly: "I have good intentions. If I go, Mr. Wang will not be able to pass the test. He is very good to me and I don't want to leave for the time being."

"What a pity." Fan Binbin said regretfully, smacking his lips.

Huang Xiaoming cooperated and showed a lonely look. In fact, both of them knew that they couldn't go to the studio.

The main reason why Fan Binbin decided not to renew her contract and was still able to continue filming without being hidden was because she promised not to take anyone with her from the company after she left.

Fan Binbin thought Huang Xiaoming didn't know, so he said some kind words, but Huang Xiaoming knew it, but he was too lazy to expose her.

…

"Brother Xiu!"

After Ding Xiu finished chatting with Fan Binbin, Liu Yifei patted him on the shoulder after waiting for a long time.

When Ding Xiu turned around, Liu Yifei opened his arms and hugged him.

Feeling the scale in front of him, Ding Xiu sighed, the little girl has become a big girl. Liu Yifei is wearing a white chest-length dress at the moment. This posture is very intimate.

Fortunately, Gao Yuanyuan was not here, otherwise there would have been a quarrel when he returned.

However, Gao Yuanyuan was not there, but Huang Xiaoming was. Seeing the two embracing each other from a distance, he could only tilt his head in tears, out of sight and out of mind.

He never thought to death why Ding Xiu was so popular with girls.

Is it just because he's 1.8 meters tall?

"It's Xixi." Smelling the faint fragrance of Liu Yifei's hair, Ding Xiu moved his head away and gently opened her body with his arms: "Didn't you go get the album?"

Liu Yifei's face turned a little red. He thought of something and took out the album he had prepared: "It's finished. I've been back for a few days. This is for you."

The album cover is in English and Ding Xiu can't understand it, but he still recognizes the autograph. It says it's for the most handsome brother Ding Xiu, and it's signed by the best-behaved Xixi.

When your finger touches the signature, there is a slight flower, indicating that it was just written.

"Don't touch it." Liu Yifei reminded carefully: "I just saw you chatting with Fan Binbin. I wrote this specially because the ink is not dry yet."

As she spoke, she blew a few breaths onto the album.

There were some albums in the car. They were originally meant to be given as gifts, but the ones given to Ding Xiu were a little different.

"Thank you. I like it very much. I will definitely listen to it carefully when I get back." He opened the back and looked at the playlist. He found that he couldn't understand it. Ding Xiu waved to Zhao Liying and gave her the album for safekeeping.

You may have to go on stage soon, and it will be inconvenient to hold things in your hands.

Taking the album carefully, Zhao Liying glanced at it secretly, a little surprised that Liu Yifei could write such a signature.

Generally, when giving an album, you usually write your name. If you have a good relationship, write an extra sentence, or write the other person's name and blessing.

But it’s rare to find people signing with nicknames.

Not to mention that Liu Yifei fell in love with the most well-behaved Xixi, and his feelings were different at first glance.

Zhao Liying couldn't help but sigh: "Brother Xiu, I'm afraid you will have no time on Sundays from now on."

After she finished speaking, she realized that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately covered her mouth, squinting her eyes into the crescent moon, showing a flattering expression.

Before Ding Xiu had time to give her a break, Liu Yifei asked: "Why do you have no time on Sunday? Are you very busy?"

"Ahem, don't listen to her nonsense, I'm very free on Sunday."

135 Gao Yuanyuan, 246 Qin Lan. Sunday is a holiday. Zhao Liying means that he has a crush on Liu Yifei, so there will be no holiday on Saturday.

Liu Yifei didn't understand, but nodded thoughtfully. Ding Xiu quickly changed the topic: "Isn't Sister Li here?"

"She has something to do and can't come. Besides, I am an adult and have my own space. You don't have to worry about her."

Ding Xiu smiled and said: "The album is finished, so you will be in China in the second half of the year?"

"No, Shonan Satellite TV's Golden Eagle Festival has set up a Golden Eagle Goddess project this year, which will be voted on by netizens. My current vote count is very high, and I may attend one next month."

"After I finish my trip to Shonan Satellite TV, I'm going to Hollywood to shoot a movie. I don't know if I can come back by the end of the year."

Ding Xiu smiled brightly: "Congratulations, you have gone to Hollywood. You are just around the corner to become famous all over the world."

Not many mainland actors can go to Hollywood to film. Only top actors can go there. For many actors, it is the biggest fame and fortune fair.

Because Hollywood movies are generally released in dozens of countries around the world, the market is incredibly large.

As long as you play a role that can leave an impression on the audience, congratulations, you will become popular and you will have many fans all over the world.

Correspondingly, domestic values ​​​​have risen, and there is a lot of money to be made.

Zhang Ziyi has not made many movies, so why does she have such a high status in the film and television industry and is nicknamed "International Zhang" because she has won many awards on the international stage.

The same goes for Liu Yifei going to Hollywood to film.

"No way, I'm just a supporting actor." Liu Yifei scratched his head in embarrassment: "The starring roles are Brother Cheng Long and Li Lianjie."

"What a generous move." Ding Xiu clicked his tongue.

If you can cast both Cheng Long and Li Lianjie in a Hollywood movie, you don't have to guess how much it costs. The combined salary of the two of them is over 100 million.

You know, the total investment in Huang Bo's Crazy Stone is only three million, which is not even a fraction of the cost of other actors.

"The lineup is indeed quite large." Liu Yifei said seriously: "This opportunity is rare and I don't want to give it up."

Patting her head gently, Ding Xiu smiled and said, "You really shouldn't give up. Come on."

Liu Yifei's status in the field of domestic TV dramas is very high. Especially after the broadcast of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the limelight has been unparalleled for a while. It may be difficult to surpass himself.

At this time, taking the film route was also a breakthrough.

You just have to be lucky. If you are not lucky, it will be useless. You might as well continue filming TV series.

"Yeah, I'll work hard. I'll call you when I get there..."

Following Ding Xiu, Liu Yifei seemed to have a lot to talk about, and even told him about the days when she practiced singing and dancing abroad. It was not until the host reminded that the Starlight Ceremony was about to begin and asked the guests to take their seats that she reluctantly left.

Because she and Ding Xiu are not in the same position.

The organizer also watched people order their food. Liu Yifei was in the front row and Ding Xiu was in the fourth row. Fortunately, it was next to the aisle, so it was easy to get in and out.

After the opening remarks, there was a burst of singing and dancing, and then the host announced the winners of the first Starlight Ceremony. The first award was given to the most popular pop group.

The band that won the award was Nanquan Mama.

The second award was for the most popular rock artist, and the winner was a second-hand rose.

On the stage, several brothers dressed in luxurious clothes came on stage, which made Ding Xiu's eyelids jump. When his acceptance speech was touching, several brothers howled several times, which made other musicians in the audience feel numb.

Ding Xiu also felt his scalp numb, but after listening to it, he found it quite interesting.

Xue Zhixian, the most promising male singer, Shang Wenjie, the most promising female singer, Jay Chou, the outstanding artist recognized by netizens, Su Huilun, the fashionable female singer...

After being awarded as a singer, I finally came to the acting industry.

The four most popular young and old students: Ding Xiu, Nie Yuan, Ren Quan, and Hu Ge.

After hearing his name, Ding Xiu buttoned up his suit and went on stage with a smile to receive the award.

"Thank you to the organizer for awarding me this honor, and thank you to netizens for their recognition. In the future, I will guard against arrogance and impatience, continue to work hard, and bring better works to everyone..."

At the award show, after receiving the award, thank your parents, fans, and organizers, and talk less and express less personal opinions. This is the consensus among artists in the industry.

Ding Xiu's manuscript was given to him by Yang Siwei yesterday. He just wrote it down and read it over today. After finishing speaking, he walked off the stage with the trophy.

Qin Chao Entertainment, Yang Sisi, who was watching the live broadcast on the computer, clenched his fists and shouted excitedly: "Yes!"

Ding Xiu has reached a higher level, which is a good thing for everyone, especially her as an agent.
