I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 34: Yang Xue’s Resources

Li Qi frowned

He was originally quite satisfied, because according to the information he had learned so far, Yang Xue’s professional ability as a broker was top-notch.

But from what Yang Xue said just now, Li Qi realized one thing:”You came to Miracle Media not to be an agent, but to be a partner?”

Yang Xue nodded

Li Qi looked at Xiao Jiaer

Xiao Jiaer immediately expressed her opinion:”I haven’t agreed yet. As long as you don’t agree, Yang Xue can’t come to our company. But I still hope you can agree. Yang Xue’s ability and connections are very important to our company.”

Xiao Jiaer did not act first and report later, which made Li Qi look better.

Although he also believed in Yang Xue’s ability, he did not plan to let others participate in the management and operation of Miracle Media right now.

Not yet

In addition, Yang Xue’s status and position did not match his position as a partner.

Yang Xue naturally knew that she couldn’t become a partner of Miracle Media just by relying on her reputation as a top agent, so she spoke again with sincerity:”I will invest two million, plus my own connections, and I only need 5% of the company’s shares.”

With an investment of two million and a network of people, Yang Xue’s appetite is not too big.

Xiao Jiaer took the initiative to speak:”Li Qi, I hope Yang Xue can join our company. Between the two of us, your main job is acting, and my ability is limited. We both need a professional to escort us and provide professional advice. Yang Xue is very suitable.”

Li Qi:”……”

“I’ve also thought about the share issue. I’ll give Yang Xue 3% of the shares, and you can just take out 2%.”

Li Qi was completely speechless

This woman is really not suitable for business.

Fortunately, I met this kind person.

As for Yang Xue, she has been Xiao Jiaer’s best friend for many years, so there is no doubt about her character.

Yang Xue saw that Li Qi was already wavering, and with a curl of her lips, she gave the final blow:”I have a friend in the industry who has a script and has recently won half of the investment from CCTV. If the company is interested, I can negotiate for the other half of the investment. I will be the producer, and Li Qi can choose any role. I believe this play has the potential to be a big hit.”

Li Qi didn’t take it seriously:”It’s impossible for a hit drama to be everywhere.”

“But what if the subject of this play is very close to the people?”Yang Xue said confidently

Li Qi showed some interest:”What subject matter?”

Yang Xue uttered five words:”Ancient costume myth drama”

Li Qi’s pupils instantly dilated:”Ancient costume myth drama? What’s the name?”

Yang Xue saw Li Qi’s changes and said with a smug look on her face:”The Lotus Lantern》”

Li Qi thought about it carefully. This world has indeed not filmed the TV series”Baolian Lantern”. At this moment, he was thinking whether he should join the filming of a popular novel in his previous life,”The Long Hate of Life and the Flow of Water”. Another question was whether Yang Jian should be played by himself or by Jiao Yingjun. It seemed that Jiao Yingjun in this world was already a little old.

In today’s entertainment industry, ancient costume mythology dramas are still a popular market, and Li Qi is optimistic about this type of drama.

Li Qi did not expect that Yang Xue would have resources like ancient costume mythology, and she was particularly optimistic about this theme. It can only be said that a gold medal agent is a gold medal agent.

“Can I see the script?”Li Qi’s attitude changed obviously.

Yang Xue smiled slightly:”Of course, please wait a moment”

After a while, Yang Xue handed Li Qi a script

The script had three big characters written on it:”The Lotus Lantern”》

Li Qi opened the script and took only two glances before confirming that this was indeed the play he had seen in his previous life.

Seeing that Li Qi was becoming more and more satisfied, Yang Xue was relieved:”Mr. Li Qi, are you satisfied with my letter of surrender?”

Li Qi put down the script, held Yang Xue’s hand and said seriously:”What’s the point of a letter of surrender? I just want to cooperate with professionals like Sister Yang Xue. It has nothing to do with Sister Yang Xue’s connections or anything like that.”

Yang Xiaoxue laughed out loud:”I also hope to cooperate with an honest person like Mr. Li Qi.”

“Just call me by my name, Sister Yang Xue. From now on, I will be yours. As for the shares, I will give up 5%, plus Mr. Xiao’s 3%, and give you 8%.”

Li Qi decided to let Yang Xue join in

Network resources are one thing, but more importantly, Yang Xue’s vision and work ability

Accurately judge the potential of ancient costume mythology themes, which is something many people do not have

Just like Yu Ma, many people complain about her ridiculousness, but every entertainment company boss hopes to have such a general under his command

In the entertainment industry, good vision is very important. Yang Xue’s prediction is very rare in Li Qi’s opinion.

However, there are some things that Li Qi still needs to clarify with Yang Xue in advance:

“Sister Jiaer, Sister Yangxue, I would like to share my views on the company’s positioning.”

Xiao Jiaer nodded:”You said”

“Our company will not be positioned as an artist management company in the future. I even hope that our company’s business focus will not involve artist management too much.”Li Qi said this very seriously:”Any great entertainment company will basically not be involved in artist management, at least it will not be the focus. Because there is a conflict between film and television production and artist management, it is difficult to achieve a win-win situation for both parties.”

The reason is very simple. If you don’t use your own artists in your own company’s projects, it means you are giving others a bargain.

But in many cases, our own artists are not suitable for a certain role. Forcing our own people to use them in order not to make it cheaper for outsiders will only affect the quality of the work.

No company can strike a good balance because the profits of the two are inherently contradictory.

Xiao Jiaer and Yang Xue both understood this, but Xiao Jiaer couldn’t accept it:”You mean our company will mainly engage in film and television production in the future? This will be very risky, and artist management can only make a stable income.”

Li Qi nodded and said,”That’s true, but the profits generated by a phenomenal TV series or movie are far from comparable to the profits generated by a first-line star. And when our company goes public in the future, the fastest way to make money is to cut leeks from the stock market. Only small workshops will think about making money from artists, and any large entertainment company in the industry will not focus on artist management.”

What Li Qi said was of course true, but after saying so many key points, he still wanted to weaken Yang Xue’s voice and at the same time ensure his position in the company.

The company only has him, Chen Xiao, and Na Xiaozha as its contracted artists, so naturally they would consider him first. Yang Xue has no other stars under her, so she would not compete with him for power and profit.
