Who are you calling powerful?

Magic City, Airport

Yang Tianzhen personally led the team and watched the passengers coming and going until he saw a few figures in the VIP channel. With a bright smile on his fat face, he hurried forward to greet them.

"Little deer, welcome back home."

"Mr. Yang, please excuse me."

The speaker was a young man with dyed white hair, handsome features, and wearing a mask. It was Lu Han who had just returned to China.

As a member of the popular South Korean boy band EXO and one of the only four Chinese members, Lu Han not only shows up in South Korea, but also has considerable influence in China and has many fans. He can be said to be a top star.

Relevant domestic entertainment companies have long been eyeing the Chinese members of EXO and have contacts with each other.

Blue Whale and Coral Entertainment were no exception. They identified Lu Han as their first choice early on, and Yang Tianzhen even flew to South Korea several times to discuss the matter in person.

After a series of contacts and arrangements, the results were remarkable, and Lu Han finally joined Coral Entertainment.

In May, EXO's first Chinese member Moufan announced that he would terminate his contract with the company and take the lead in returning to China for development.

As soon as he returned to China, he immediately became the male lead in the new movie directed by Xu Cainv. Later, I heard that he was also spotted by director Guan and was expected to participate in "Old Paoer" starring Feng Pants.

It can actually be seen from these two movies that the capital behind Moufan is the Beijing Circle.

At this stage, this guy has not yet gained momentum and does not have enough contacts and resources. He has just entered the Beijing circle. When he becomes a top player later, he will receive a steady stream of support.

If Wei Yang remembers correctly, the capital behind Moufan in the later period included Jingcheng Cultural Investment and Huayi Group, and Brother Cheng Long was also a key figure.

In addition, Moufan is deeply tied to iYiqi, and later began to contact Penguin. Coupled with the endorsements of major luxury and business brands, his personal capital alone exceeds 1 billion.

But no matter what the future holds for Moufan, his move to Beijing has helped Coral Entertainment to a certain extent.

Lu Han is a native of the capital, and he actually prefers to develop in the capital.

However, resources are limited, and Moufan has already taken the lead. Competition within the Beijing circle is also fierce. Lu Han has a shallow foundation in the country, so he must choose carefully.

At this time, Coral Entertainment's representative Blue Whale and the increasingly powerful Shanghai Circle offered an olive branch, which made Lu Han start to take a different direction.

Finally, in October, Lu Han was temporarily freed and officially returned to China for development, citing reasons such as the original company's inability to provide future development plans and his physical illness due to high-intensity work and pressure.

Of course, this is just a stop-gap measure, and the contract will have to be resolved slowly. However, Lu Han and others have returned to China, and everything else is not a problem, except negotiating to spend more money as compensation.

Compared with those prices, Lu Han is the most valuable talent, and can even be described as a cornucopia.

Yang Tianzhen is very satisfied with this new general!

Damimi has left, Tang Yan was severely impacted by Zhao Liying again. Although Zhang Ruoyun is famous, his background is still shallow and he can't stand alone.

If Coral Entertainment wants to maintain its status and even advance to the next level, it needs to create new star aces, and the shorter the time, the better.

There is no doubt that this young man with excellent conditions in all aspects meets her needs very well.

"This is not the place to talk. Let's go first and show you where you live."

Yang Tianzhen didn't talk too much and took the people away directly.

Lu Han had just returned to China, and he was in Shanghai, a city he was unfamiliar with. Naturally, the company had to help with preparations in many aspects.

After a while, Yang Tianzhen led Lu Han to a house. The area was not large, less than 300 square meters, with four bedrooms and two living rooms. The decoration was warm and the key was convenience.

This is a high-end hotel-style residence with complete supporting services. Yang Tianzhen has even found a dedicated butler team. It is most suitable for people like Lu Han who have just arrived in Shanghai and are busy with work. They don’t have to worry about trivial matters. If you need any services, just ask the butler. That’s it.

"Go shopping for yourself. If you're not satisfied, we can change it. There's not much else in the city, so the house is definitely enough."

"No, it's already very good, better than I imagined."

Lu Han shook his head. He was telling the truth. Even though he was famous now, his income was not particularly high.

One is that EXO has only been popular for two years and only became popular after debuting in 2012. The time is short and the benefits are naturally limited.

The other is that they are trainees, and the Korean company's share requirements are quite harsh, and they have to share the rest with more than a dozen people. Even if they make more money, it is conceivable that with such a small share, they will ultimately keep it in their own hands.

Moufan and Lu Han were originally on the rise in Korea, but they resolutely returned to China for development, even if they fell out with their old employers. In fact, they took considerable risks.

On the one hand, there are many temptations and good prospects provided by domestic companies. On the other hand, there are indeed conflicts with Korean companies and a lot of dissatisfaction has accumulated.

In South Korea, the place where Lu Han lives is not bad. After all, he is a member of a popular boy band, so he won't have to squeeze into an apartment with a few people.

But it was not as luxurious as a person like this. From this point of view, Lu Han felt that it was a good idea for him to choose to return to his country.

After settling in, Lu Han did not stay at his residence for long. Instead, he went to the company. Yang Tianzhen did not stop him and took him to visit Coral Entertainment.

Although Coral Entertainment is a pure artist management company, its scale is not small.

The entire artist team alone is not a small number. There are also many departments such as publicity, public relations, advertising, performing arts, training, logistics, etc. The total number of staff is no less than 300, and the office area occupies an entire floor.

This also surprised Lu Han. You must know that EXO's employer SM company only has a few hundred employees.

Although Coral Entertainment is also ranked high in the country, in his impression, it is just a company affiliated with Blue Whale, and he did not expect it to be so generous.

Yang Tianzhen saw Lu Han's shock and felt secretly proud.

Although the newly acquired generals must be paid attention to, they must also be given the necessary beatings.

She learned this from Boss Wei. In terms of management, a combination of kindness and power is often the right approach, especially since it was not always smooth sailing to regain Luhan.

Coral Entertainment was the first group to contact EXO members. Moufan returned to China in May, but Lu Han delayed the negotiations until October. During this period, there were many differences, which delayed the negotiations.

Not to mention Lu Han himself wanted to develop in the capital, but there was also a point where the two sides were at a stalemate.

That is because Lu Han relies on his popularity and wants to strive for more independence and autonomy, and even form a cooperative relationship like Damimi before.

This is obviously unacceptable to Coral Entertainment. Lu Han is now quite popular in China, but it is far behind Damimi at the time.

At least the latter can support a mainstream project, while Lu Han has yet to prove himself domestically.

Not to mention that Damimi’s popularity and popularity are all-round, while Lu Han’s main audience is fans and teenagers. Even if the latter’s commercial value is higher, it is not enough for Coral Entertainment to compromise to this point.

Besides, Coral Entertainment signed Lu Han just to make money. How could they spend a lot of effort to train him and then let him run away on his own?

In addition to making money, how could Damimi sleep with Boss Wei, or even have a threesome? Can he accompany her?

Even if I can accompany you, Boss Wei won’t do it!

Therefore, it is impossible for Coral Entertainment to agree to this. Even if it can agree to let Lu Han set up a studio, various management contracts must be represented by Coral Entertainment, which is not negotiable.

To put it bluntly, Boss Wei wants to be his tool to make money, not to serve as a stepping stone for that family to become popular.

You can be popular and you can make money, but the premise is that Boss Wei must make more.

Although Lu Han had some confidence, he was still far behind the giant Blue Whale, so the negotiation ended with Lu Han's side compromising.

But Yang Tianzhen was still a little worried, so he deliberately showed off his muscles to scare Lu Han into obeying his orders honestly.

It was not easy for Yang Tianzhen to be the CEO of Coral before. At least she could not give full command to the most famous artist Molasses.

Fortunately, now that Damimi is gone, Tang Yan is relatively easy to talk to, and Yang Tianzhen has also made certain achievements and is becoming more and more powerful within the coral, so she can't stand anyone challenging her, so she hopes to convince Lu Han.

It is enough for Coral Entertainment to have Tang Yan, all other artists must be under her direction.

Therefore, this time Yang Tianzhen deliberately wanted to show more of the strength of the Blue Whale, which could not only serve as a warning, but also make Lu Han more confident and improve his morale.

"At present, our company has more than 20 artists, including some first-tier and second-tier popular artists, as well as many new generation talents. The boss personally said that in the future, we will focus on supporting you, the post-90s generation..."

There are talents from generation to generation in the country, and the new generation is better than the old one!

This sentence is particularly important in the entertainment industry. The rise of Blue Whale and Coral Entertainment is largely due to the capture of post-80s artists, especially the big bonus of 85 flowers, so they can dominate the field of artist management.

Wei Yang, who has tasted the benefits, will naturally not give up the next wave of benefits.

Blue Whale will focus more on film and television production in the future. In addition, it already has two 90-year-old beauties from Xinjiang Province. Therefore, the task of developing and cultivating post-90s artists has been given to Yang Tianzhen. This is also the key strategy of Coral in the future.

At present, Yang Tianzhen has signed several new people, both men and women, but the one who values ​​​​the most is Lu Han.

His popularity base can maximize the resources of Coral Entertainment and quickly become popular in a short period of time.

Yang Tianzhen really hopes to develop. Not only will the company have another cornucopia, but it will also be a major achievement in supporting the new generation of talents. It is a good explanation for Boss Wei and can also let the outside world see the prospects of Coral Entertainment.

Wei Yang opposed the listing of Blue Whale, but he never said that Coral Entertainment could not be listed.

If the development goes smoothly and is in line with interests, Boss Wei would not mind making money by listing Coral Entertainment.

Anyway, Blue Whale owns shares in Coral Entertainment, which will not affect the cooperation between the two parties. Moreover, by selling some shares during the listing, it can also tie up the leading artists.

Huayi and many other companies have proven that star shareholders can be very beneficial to the stock market, especially during the peak period of the traffic era.

Coral is on the market! ?

This is a big temptation for Yang Tianzhen, who owns shares in Coral Entertainment, so she is particularly active in developing the company.

But it's too far to talk about it now. Yang Tianzhen just mentioned it briefly and introduced the company more.

"There are no outsiders here. I've made it clear. You also understand the relationship between our company and Blue Whale. With this big tree behind us, we don't have to worry about film and television resources."

"And not only Blue Whale, but also many film and television companies such as Tangren, Jade Shrimp, Shangshi, etc. also have strategic cooperation relationships with us. To put it bluntly, we are qualified to get a share of these companies' high-quality projects."

"In addition, I guess you also know that the boss has now purchased a video website, and it is currently developing very well."

"Once the boss completes the resource platformization, then with PPTV as the center, the resources and channels we have access to will be unimaginable. If there are many resources at that time, it is estimated that our company will not have enough people."

"..."

Yang Tianzhen smiled happily. Taking refuge with Boss Wei was definitely her wisest decision. Lu Han's eyes suddenly lit up.

Although he looks young, he is actually quite smart in business. He later participated in many business investments in his previous life and was worth a lot of money.

He clearly understands what it means to sit on a big platform, which is a real giant.

A very simple point, as I said before, except for a few companies with capital like Blue Whale, projects do not have to worry about sellers, so they can film the drama first and then sell the goods.

Most of the other crews actually start looking for sellers at the beginning of preparations, and even start filming after the sellers nod.

Otherwise, after the filming of the drama is completed, it cannot be sold, and all the money will be lost. Small companies and independent producers may simply go bankrupt.

Therefore, having a strong platform can not only directly talk to countless crews, but what is more, it can also directly interfere with the details.

For example, there is a costume drama. The producer went to PPTV with the script and project. PPTV thought it was good and could pre-order it, and even continued to receive some financial and resource support, but one of the conditions was that the protagonist was from Coral Entertainment.

Do you think the film producers agree?

If you are the protagonist of a Chinese entertainment film, of course you can directly fight back, or even turn around and find another platform to become famous and slap in the face, but the reality is that the film crew will basically choose to compromise.

There is competition and collusion between platforms. If they really focus on your project, they can definitely find a way to reach a tacit understanding with several other platforms and get you to agree obediently.

It is conceivable that if most of the people who come to PPTV to cooperate with the crew arrange a few roles in this way, coupled with its own channels, Coral Entertainment will not be able to use its talents well.

This is just the basic operation. If the platform is really strong enough, there will be more tricks that can be played.

During the peak period of later generations, several major video websites jointly monopolized the variety show and TV drama market, and most of the entertainment industry depended on their opinions.

Coral Entertainment is backed by PPTV and can be said to be a direct subordinate. Compared with other artists, it has a huge advantage.

Just based on this, Lu Han felt excited, not to mention that Yang Tianzhen also introduced him to the music, fashion, and business resources developed by Coral Entertainment in the past two years.

Compared with the brilliance of film and television resources, these aspects are inevitably a bit "mediocre", but they are still better than Lu Han imagined.

Only then did he realize that he had really underestimated the power of the big boss who had built countless businesses in just a few years. Signing with Blue Whale was the right path.

Lu Han is also ambitious!

Especially in the Beijing circle, there is a teammate named Moufan who is unwilling to bow his head to that scumbag.

Looking at Lu Han with twinkling eyes, Yang Tianzhen knew that his goal had been achieved and he felt particularly comfortable.

My boss has too many roles in Hua Dan, and the market has been taken away. The competition is too fierce, but there is still a blue ocean for young male stars.

Before Zhang Ruoyun, she had already achieved a lot. Now that she has Lu Han and two top male stars, it is her turn to be proud of Yang Tianzhen...

ps: The temperature in Shandong has dropped sharply in the past few days. I am not in good health. Several people in my family are sick, and there are many things to do.

So the update may not be stable, but it should not be interrupted. I will restore it as soon as possible. I hope everyone can forgive me.
