Chapter 17 Lucky Numbers

Lu Chen realized that he must not ask too much about Shi Yin. If this guy gives her a little sunshine, she will shine.

At this time, Shiyin continued: "Lu Chen, Dreamland asked me to sign an artist contract. Do you think I should sign it?"

Today, Shiyin's popularity in the entertainment industry has surpassed that of many big-name female stars, so naturally many artist companies are rushing to sign her.

Lu Chen thought for a while and replied: "Whether you sign or not depends on you. However, the entertainment industry is a muddy ditch. If you are not careful, you will get yourself covered in mud. In this industry, many times

I can’t help myself.”

From Lu Chen's point of view, Shi Yin came from the mountains after all, and she didn't understand the rules of the entertainment industry very well, so he needed to talk to her about it. As for what choice she should make, that was her personal matter, and he had no control over it.

There is no reason to care.

Shiyin sat back on the sofa and said with a depressed look: "Why do you talk like my dad?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen asked doubtfully: "Your dad also knows about the entertainment industry?"

A farmer from the mountains knew a bit about the rules of the entertainment industry, which surprised Lu Chen.

This world is not like the one on Earth. When Lu Chen left Earth, most of the backward mountainous areas in his country had access to roads and the Internet, so people in the mountains also knew about the outside world.

But this world is different. Basically, life in the mountains is still in a primitive state. There are no roads, no TV, and you have to walk a long way to make a phone call.

Shi Yin did not answer Lu Chen's question. She continued: "I want to open my own artist company and be my own boss, so no one can control me!"

Lu Chen said: "You are really arrogant. Although you are so popular now, it does not mean that your popularity will always be so high. Without a steady stream of resources, sooner or later you will be forgotten by people. You will go to another place."

If you open an artist company, who will provide you with resources?"

The entertainment industry is like this. If you want to be your own boss, you must first have enough funds, then you must have enough connections, and finally you must have enough resources.

Shi Yin has only been filming for two months and only has hundreds of thousands of dollars. The company is booming, and she is a new actor. She has no connections and resources. She won't even be able to film movies by then. Sooner or later, the popularity will dissipate.

The main reason why Dreamland hired new people this time was because they were short of funds, and the famous director Chen Chuan played a big role. Without Chen Chuan, the possibility of Shiyin being able to get this spot was basically zero.

You don't have a very good personality, and you don't even attend the crew dinners. Who will give you resources like this?

Lu Chen has basically guessed what stages Shiyin will go through later. It is very likely that she will remain popular for a while, and then some TV programs will invite her in the short term. However, because she does not sign a contract with an artist company, there are basically no companies looking for her.

Filming, even if there was one, was for some small companies, or the pay was very low, and then she was reduced to a third-tier star.

This world is such a reality. If you don’t sign a contract to be exploited by others, or pay a small price, others will not praise you and have no reason to praise you. If you think that you can do whatever you want when you become popular, you are totally wrong.

Shi Yin ignored Lu Chen's words. She slapped her thigh and continued: "Okay, I've decided! I want to open a company! I'm the only artist in the company!"

Having said this, Shi Yin stared at Lu Chen with both eyes.

"Then you will be my agent. I will give you a monthly salary of five thousand yuan. What do you think?"

Just as Lu Chen was about to say something, Shi Yin raised his right hand, turned his head back, waved his hand, and made a "refuse" gesture.

"Don't thank me, I am a kind person."



Lu Chen said extremely speechlessly: "You want me to be your agent for a salary of 5,000 yuan. I think you are not awake."

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Shi Yin was stunned. She originally thought that Lu Chen would accept it happily and be grateful to her.

A person who comes from the mountains can get a stable salary of five thousand yuan a month, which is already a lot. Moreover, being an agent is so easy and there is nothing to do. This guy actually thinks that the money is small?

"Five thousand dollars is a lot. It's better than being a screenwriter, which is still unstable."

"Lu Chen, although it's always good to have dreams, you have to see the reality clearly. Only when people are alive can they pursue their dreams." Shi Yin said earnestly.

Hearing Shi Yin say this about himself, Lu Chen was extremely speechless and said:

"I don't want you to say that at all. I don't know who cried in front of me two months ago and said that he had no money to eat and was about to starve to death."

At this point, Lu Chen stood up from his seat and suggested: "How about this, the two of us contribute some money and jointly open a company. If you are not popular, I will write songs to help you increase your popularity. If you can't sing,

Like making movies and TV series, this is a very low-cost way to maintain popularity. Anyway, you become famous because of your songs."

Originally, Lu Chen planned to wait for a while before implementing his plan, but now that Shi Yin mentioned opening a company, he could seize this opportunity and take advantage of Shi Yin's popularity to start his layout in the entertainment industry in advance.

After getting along with each other for more than two months, Lu Chen almost knew what kind of character Shiyin was. She was not a money-worshiping girl, she was just big-breasted and brainless and a little lazy, so it was okay to expose a little bit of his financial strength at this time.

It's not impossible.

As long as she wasn't the kind of money-worshiping girl who was very good at pretending, Lu Chen was willing to associate with her.

After listening to Lu Chen's suggestion, Shi Yin thought for a moment. Although Lu Chen came from the mountains, he was more talented than most music producers today.

The songs he wrote might indeed help her stay popular, but that wasn't what she cared about. What she cared about was whether Lu Chen would get entangled with her if he found out one day that she was a rich second generation.

From the current point of view, Lu Chen does not seem to be the kind of person who will stalk her because of money. She can consider working with him in the short term, and she has also planned to form a band with Lu Chen before.

, although the band was not formed in the end, she became popular in advance because of a song by Lu Chen.

"Okay, then let's start a joint venture and run it for a while, but how will our shares be divided?"

Lu Chen immediately replied: "Give me an auspicious number, seven for me and three for you."

Hearing this, Shiyin was not happy. What does it mean to give an auspicious number, seven or three is auspicious?

How can she do it if she only has 30% of the shares? No matter how you look at it, she will suffer a loss.

"No, I am seven and you are three." Shiyin said.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Well, you will provide 700,000 yuan for the start-up capital of the company, and I will provide 300,000 yuan."

Lu Chen has basically calculated how much money Shi Yin has. Shi Yin's film remuneration after tax is almost 600,000 yuan. The 30,000 yuan that she got from the previous song has probably been used up long ago. In addition, she usually

She also spent money lavishly, and she couldn't afford 700,000.

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Shi Yin was stunned, but she quickly reacted and said: "I thought about it and let it go. It's you seven and me three. You offer seven hundred thousand and I offer three hundred thousand.

"

Shi Yin thought that Lu Chen said this on purpose to provoke her. He didn't need a million start-up capital to create a small company, so she also said the same thing. Let's see what Lu Chen does. He came from a big mountain. Look at him.

Where did the seven hundred thousand come from?

However, things did not develop in the direction Shi Yin expected. After seeing what Shi Yin said, Lu Chen immediately said: "Okay, that's it, I'll give you three, I'll give you seven hundred thousand, and you'll give three

One hundred thousand, whatever you say is like water thrown out, you can't take it back."

"You are a big star now, so you can't live up to your words."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Shi Yin was dumbfounded.

Lu Chen really has 700,000???

Shi Yin said in disbelief: "You have 700,000? Where did you get 700,000?"

Although Shiyin knew that Lu Chen was not the kind of person who was so poor that he ate instant noodles every day, she didn't think that Lu Chen would have more than 700,000 yuan in savings. After all, he looked so young and he came from the mountains.

He had just graduated, how could he have so much money?

Lu Chen smiled and said: "Isn't it normal for me as a screenwriter to have 700,000 yuan? And if you think about it, any song I give you can sell for 100,000 yuan. Do you think if I write my own songs?

Will you run out of money?"

After listening to what Lu Chen said, Shi Yin realized that she had been tricked. She said angrily: "You tricked me!"

Lu Chen said disapprovingly: "Why do you mean I'm tricking you? I just said you are seven and I'm three, but you don't agree and insist on calling me seven and you are three. What does this have to do with me?"

"You! I..."

Shiyin was so angry that her face flushed red and she was speechless. She was actually confused by the identity of a poor boy who came from the mountains. These days, even if he comes from the mountains, as long as he has extraordinary abilities, he

It is normal to make millions.

This was the first time that Shi Yin was involved by Lu Chen, which made her feel very uncomfortable, so she immediately regretted it and said, "I quit, I don't want to be exploited by you."

"Exploited by me?"

Lu Chen stared at Shi Yin and said seriously: "From now on, you will only be responsible for acting and participating in various activities. And you can act if you want to act, and if you don't want to act, you can't act. I will not only be responsible for running the company, but also

I’ll help you find resources and expand your network of contacts. You can’t just quit if you don’t want to do it. It’s hard and tiring. What’s wrong with taking 70% of the shares?”

Shiyin seemed to understand and asked: "You mean I am the outsider and you are the inside, and I can rest when I want to?"

"That's pretty much what it means." Lu Chen said.

"Okay, that's it, I'll suffer a little loss."
