Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Nie Wei rejected it very quickly, as if he answered without thinking, which made the two girls unable to accept it for a while and were stunned.

Didn’t you say that you value us very much? Why did you reject us so quickly now? Could it be that the appreciation you said before was actually a lie?

The two girls felt that they were deceived for a while.

If Nie Wei knew what the two girls were thinking at this moment, he would definitely tell them that appreciation does not mean that they can do whatever they want. At least the requests they put forward have exceeded Nie Wei’s bottom line.

Nie Wei quickly gave an explanation.

"You want certain resources, but this is not realistic, because Huayi has never provided such a contract to any artist, and the company cannot set this precedent because of you. I hope you can understand."

"And even if I agree, can you tell me what you want now?"

"Sometimes, forced resources may not be suitable for you. Too much force may be counterproductive. It's like in a movie, other actors perform well, but one person is very bad. Do you think the audience will scold her?"

"And with your popularity, are you still afraid that you won't have opportunities after entering the company? The company will naturally arrange opportunities for you at that time. Of course, whether you can seize them depends on your ability."

Xuanyi listened to Nie Wei's words and felt that they made sense, but she was also angry and wanted to scold him. Isn't Nie Wei saying that we are not capable in a roundabout way?

Meiqi on the side agreed with her. After all, there is one in their team. Yang Xiaoli has been criticized for her business ability. It's so pitiful. She doesn't want to become like that.

Hearing the silence on the other end of the phone, Nie Wei was not in a hurry. He knew that the girls needed a process to digest this result.

Nie Wei stared at the girls quietly as they made their choices. As for concessions, it was impossible to make concessions.

Huayi does have two actors who have made such a precedent.

The first one is Zhou Xun, who joined the company when Huayi was in danger and played a stabilizing role. At that time, Huayi promised that she would be the heroine of the three major productions produced by the company in the future, and then "Night Banquet" and "Painted Skin" series were indeed played by Zhou Xun.

The second one is Zhang Ziyi. At the beginning, this actress originally intended to join Huayi, and one of the clauses was that Nie Wei chose her as the heroine of the new movie.

But then again, these two female stars are all the top female artists in the industry. Although Xuanyi and Meiqi are popular, they are far behind them. What's more, even Zhou Xun and Zhang Ziyi have such clauses for special reasons.

Just as Nie Wei explained, if there is a clause that promises you a role, once it gets out, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among many artists in the company. After all, everyone thought that they could win the role based on their strength, but when someone signed the contract, everything was doomed.

If it was a big star like Zhang Ziyi who signed the contract, it would be fine, but if it was Meiqi and Xuanyi, I'm afraid other artists would make a scene.

"Well, I heard that you two want to try drama, and the company just happens to have a well-made web drama in preparation, and one of the roles is close to your age. You can give it a try, what do you think?" Nie Wei suddenly suggested.

"Okay." Xuanyi and Meiqi were delighted when they heard it, and they quickly agreed.

"In addition, if you have made up your mind, you can contact Meisha directly. You don't need to worry about the contract. The company has a legal department, and you don't need to pay a penny for the liquidated damages. As for any special personal treatment you need, as long as it is not excessive, you can talk to Meisha directly. She is your agent and she also represents Fanxing Company. You can trust her."

"Yeah, thank you, Brother Nie Wei." Xuanyi let out a long sigh of relief after hanging up the phone.

The call was not long, only ten minutes, but it gave Xuanyi and Meiqi a century-long feeling.

However, after the call, the two girls felt that it was worth it. Just listening to Nie Wei's analysis made them feel enlightened, especially the word "upper limit", which was deeply engraved in the hearts of the two girls and became an important weight, pressing their hearts tightly towards Fanxing.

They have tasted the taste of fire, so naturally they want to keep on being hot, or even hotter.

But just like what Nie Wei said, in order to make them more popular, they need a good company to help them. However, the strength of the original company, in the eyes of Meiqi and Xuanyi, really doesn't help them much.

On the contrary, Fanxing has unlimited opportunities. Moreover, Nie Wei just said on the phone that as artists of Fanxing, they can actually indirectly enjoy the resources of Huayi. Considering that Nie Wei is the boss of both companies, the two girls believe him 100%.

After Nie Wei hung up the phone, Shu Chang opened the insulated lunch box that had been prepared long ago. The dishes inside were made by the chef at home in the morning. The insulation effect of the lunch box is also good, and it is still steaming.

"Did the talk go well?" Shu Chang handed the chopsticks to Nie Wei and asked curiously.

"It's okay, I guess 90% will agree." Nie Wei replied with a smile.

"So confident, will their original agency let them go easily?"

"So what if I don't want to let go? Artists don't have the heart to stay. Even if their company wants to keep people, they can't." Nie Wei said with a smile. When talking about Y Entertainment, she couldn't help but make a sarcastic comment.

Y Entertainment seems to be a simmering company with lots of flowers, but in fact it doesn’t have much foundation. One brother and one sister in the company were all in the traffic circle before, but later they were squeezed out by the new niche and the actress, and they were all mixed up in the traffic circle. I couldn't go on anymore, so I turned to the powerful group. However, despite the easy transition, the response so far has been mediocre.

And this company basically relies on its fans for its profits, and the artists it cultivates are all traffic-oriented artists. What they are best at is encouraging fans to fight each other.

Don’t think that agencies just want to see idol fans uniting with each other. That’s impossible. Without comparison and competition, where would the spending power come from?

Most of the time, the agency hopes that the fans of the idols will fight with each other and lose their minds. They will empty their wallets for the sake of the idol's "dignity". It is said that it is for the idol's "face", but in fact Above all, he was tricked around by the brokerage company.

After the agency feels that fans' wallets have been almost emptied, they will usually issue a very perfunctory statement.

Some smart agencies will also arrange trolls at this time to lead fans to question the agency's inaction and take the initiative to take the blame on themselves, using this to whitewash their idols and make fans feel more sorry for their idols and feel that they I was treated unfairly at the company.

Although the company took the blame, it made a lot of money. The idol was pitied by the fans. When the next round of money-making comes, the fans will spend more money. This cycle often repeats until it is completely squeezed out. As far as fans' feelings and wallets are concerned.

Nie Wei despises this kind of company that relies solely on the fan economy. It relies on everyone to run. Fans cannot be deceived by you for a lifetime. This is just using the company's reputation to consume. When that day comes, this brand will be completely They entered the blacklist in the hearts of fans, which is when they went bankrupt.

Huayi and Fanxing are different. Nie Wei's company does not rely on the fan economy to achieve overall profitability. This is only a small part of Huayi and Fanxing's income. What the two companies really rely on is their works.

Huayi’s movies, TV series, and starry variety shows are the real foundation.

To give the simplest example, if Y Entertainment is also listed, if any of its popular artists leave the company, the company's stock will inevitably plummet. On the contrary, Huayi and Fanxing will have no choice but to retain a few artists. It will not have much impact on the market value.

One is a company that relies on the popularity of artists to find resources, and the other is a company that relies on resources to support artists. The difference is huge.

"If these two girls can stay in Fanxing, they may really be able to step into the front line in the future. If they return to the original company, they may be outcast in a few years." Nie Wei said.

"Aren't they very popular?" Shu Chang was a little surprised as to why Nie Wei predicted this.

"Yeah, but that's the popularity brought by the show. They just have the aura given by the show, and it's also the popularity that is set off by nearly a hundred other girls."

"But if you think about it again, why were they not famous when they were originally formed?"

"Why?" Shu Chang was puzzled.

"Because they don't stand out." Nie Wei replied: "They are all beauties, and they are all talented. However, there are too many beauties in the entertainment industry. In fact, neither their looks nor their strength have reached the level of standing out. They are just like that. It’s okay for you to do it, but it’s okay for me to do it too.”

"If such artists want to be popular, they must use a lot of resources to pile up, lay a solid foundation, and climb up to stand firm. But now the two girls have suddenly become popular because of the show, as if someone has sent them there on a cloud. At the top of the mountain, what they stepped on was not the ground, but ethereal clouds. Maybe one day the magic on the clouds would dissipate, and they would fall down hard. "

Shu Chang nodded. Nie Wei said it vividly. Uniqueness is indeed a major problem that hinders the development of artists.

Why Lin Yifei became so popular as soon as she debuted was because her appearance and temperament were unique. In that era, a little girl like her was the only irreplaceable one.

When boys see Lin Yifei, they feel astonished. The other beauties standing next to her turn from flowers to green leaves. This is what makes her stand out.

Just like singers, there are many people who sing well, but there are very few voices that can be remembered as soon as they are heard. The reason why Liu Huan and Yang Kun are so popular is because their singing voices are so special and recognizable. It’s also a challenge.

But whether it is Meiqi or Xuan Yi, they actually do not have the conditions to stand out.

In fact, even Zhou Duoduo does not have the conditions to stand out, but she is lucky to have Nie Wei as her brother. This is not only a pressure, but it also brings her a unique aura, allowing her to quickly Be remembered.

Among HELLOIRLS, it is Yang Xiaoli who possesses this precious quality the most. Otherwise, with a little idol like her, how could so many people remember and fall in love with her in just one episode? In the show, a mentor said Yang Xiaoli is popular with the audience. This is actually because Yang Xiaoli is outstanding.

"Because they are not outstanding enough, they need a lot of resources to keep their popularity from declining. Y Entertainment cannot provide this. Only my company can provide it. If they are smart enough, they will know how to choose."

"Okay, I know you're awesome, let's eat." Shu Chang put a piece of fish in Nie Wei's bowl.

The two girls didn't understand as well as Nie Wei, but they certainly knew the correct answer to such a simple multiple-choice question. That night, the two asked Misa out again and formally proposed the idea of ​​changing jobs.

Misa was very happy with the two's choice, and also invited both parents to Kyoto to discuss the new contract.

The girls were naturally happy, but just when Xuanyi was about to call her mother, her cell phone rang first. What surprised her even more was that the person who called her was the boss of Y Entertainment.

Xuanyi didn't answer the phone immediately, but showed the phone to Misa and told her that it was the boss of Y Entertainment.

Misa frowned, thinking that the call was not simple.

"Turn on the hands-free." Misa said, then thought for a while, and quickly added: "Turn on the recording too."

Xuanyi's heart had already drifted to the stars at this time, and she naturally agreed to do what Misa asked.

"Xuanyi baby, where are you now?" As soon as the call was connected, the sweet voice of Boss Du on the other side rang out, making the three people who were listening to the phone shiver. It was too sweet.

"Sister Du, Meiqi and I are drinking coffee outside." Xuanyi replied.

"Drinking coffee so late, aren't you afraid of insomnia at night? Really, tell me which coffee shop, sister will pick you up." The boss of Y Entertainment suddenly wanted to come over, which surprised all three people.

Xuanyi and Meiqi looked at Meisha together, using their eyes to indicate how to answer.

Meisha thought about it and shook her head slightly.

"Sister Du, what can you do? It's so late, Meiqi and I will go back to the dormitory to sleep in a while, and we have to get up early tomorrow morning to shoot a magazine." Xuanyi asked tentatively, while also shirking.

"I do have something important to discuss with you. So, I'll pick you up for a good meal first, and we'll talk at the table. Don't worry, I won't disturb your rest. Tomorrow, I can use my face to ask for half a day off for you."

Meisha on the side couldn't help but roll her eyes, thinking, do you have the face to do that?

Then looking at Xuanyi who cast a questioning look, Meisha thought about it, and finally nodded. It's too late to refuse to go. If she refuses again, it will arouse the suspicion of Mr. Du.

Xuanyi reported the address of the coffee shop and waited for Mr. Du to arrive.

"Remember to keep the recording on, and don't agree to any of her requests. You can just say you have to ask your agent to shirk responsibility."

"Also, I'll bring my assistant to drive with you. If she does anything strange, you can call me at any time and I'll send someone to pick you up."

Meisa took advantage of the time when Boss Du was on the way to come and hurriedly told the two girls. She always felt that Boss Du's dinner with the two girls in the middle of the night must be bad, and they must be prepared for emergencies.

Thanks to TaoDEtie and 0773 for their generous rewards.
