Chapter 164 is practicing yoga(1/2)
Lin Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa and looked carefully at an email on her tablet. After reading it, she couldn't come back to her senses for a while.
Then, she clicked on the contract in the attachment and scanned it quickly.
The company's legal department had already looked at the contract and sent it to her after making sure there were no problems. But she just wanted to take a look at it herself and make sure again.
After reading this contract, Lin Xiaoxiao had no doubts at all, and this endorsement contract was won.
Qin Shu quietly got an endorsement worth 20 million for three years...
That's not right, this can't be called silence.
Qiu Ming had mentioned this to her before, but she didn't pay attention at the time and just let it go.
Now that the contract was awarded and sent directly to her, she couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
What's going on?
Qin Shu could actually win such a big contract?
Lin Xiaoxiao was confused and puzzled.
The value of an artist comes entirely from his work...
Of course, times are different now, and the definition of "work" is completely different.
It might be an action, it might be a video, it might be a sentence, it might even be an expression... these can all be called works.
In any case, the work is the entire market value of the artist.
Qin Shu is a singer. Although she has released at least one album every year in recent years, her albums have not sold well. Her most popular song cannot even reach the top 20 on the Big Goose Music best-selling list.
It can be said that Qin Shu has been gradually eliminated by this circle. Although the elimination speed is not so fast and conspicuous, there is no doubt that she is falling.
Others may not be able to see clearly, but as Qin Shu's agent, Lin Xiaoxiao has a piece of data in her hands.
In the past three years, Qin Shu has received fewer jobs each year and her income has also dropped sharply. Basically, as long as she crosses the red line, she can be declared to have no value in the market.
Moreover, she is a little different from other artists who are no longer popular.
Other artists, if they do not do well, will try their best to strive for the top, hoping that one day they can become famous again.
But Qin Shu herself doesn't have much ambition to work hard. She won't fight for less work, and she doesn't care if her popularity is low. She just has a calm mentality.
Because of Qin Shu's mentality, Lin Xiaoxiao had already "given up" on Qin Shu before. She also understood very well the sudden departure of Qin Shu's former executive agent Liu Yun.
This is a sunken ship!
Qin Shu didn't even think about saving himself, so what could others do?
Besides choosing to leave, is there any other better way?
When Lin Xiaoxiao sent Qiu Ming to Qin Shu, she actually wanted him to adapt to the responsibilities and work of an executive agent in advance, so that he could adapt better to Zhuo Lan in the future.
After all, Qin Shu didn't have much work around him, so it was just right for Qiu Ming, a novice executive agent, to practice.
Of course, Lin Xiaoxiao also has a more "private" reason, that is, after seeing Zhuo Lan's potential to "get up", she hopes to spend more time with Zhuo Lan to make their relationship closer.
You must know that most agents in the entertainment industry are in charge of many artists at the same time. They have no time to divide their time and can only pay more attention to the popular or important people. The rest can only be executed by their subordinates.
The agent will follow.
And doing so often leads to a consequence, that is, after the executive agent and the artist develop a friendship, they are likely to move to another company together and start a new business.
This kind of thing happens from time to time, and every time it happens, it will cause shocks of varying sizes in the circle, which will cause great harm to the brokerage company.
Therefore, even though Lin Xiaoxiao trusted Qiu Ming, she had to take precautions.
This is something that an agent must consider, and it is not directed at Qiu Ming.
From the beginning, she didn't think about what Qiu Ming could accomplish after he went to Qin Shu's side.
But now——
Lin Xiaoxiao felt that this matter was not simple anymore, Qiu Ming's ability was too "strong".
Not to mention song writing, Lin Xiaoxiao has now equated Qiu Ming with the top songwriters on the market.
Let's just say that Qiu Ming's vision in leading artists is extraordinary.
Lin Xiaoxiao already knew that Xu Jinrong chose to participate in the recording of this program because of Qiu Ming.
Xu Jingrong's performance in the show has made her attract countless fans, and she has successfully established herself as a "cold and inviolable" person in the variety show circle, who can "identify a scumbag with the naked eye". It is really just this "work" that makes her stand firm.
Heel.
Of course, there is also the reason why Zhang Junfeng's own saucy operation went wrong, which caused Xu Jinrong, who was originally in trouble, to make a big turn and her popularity soared.
If there is some element of luck in this, then after Qiu Ming went to Zhuo Lan and became Zhuo Lan's artist assistant, his performance was so good that people are speechless.
Zhuo Lan is already the most inconspicuous newcomer in the company. When Qiu Ming was assigned to Zhuo Lan, Lin Xiaoxiao was really "unkind" and just wanted him to stay away from Xu Jingrong as soon as possible.
However, after Qiu Ming came to Zhuo Lan's side, he took Zhuo Lan to several announcements in a row, and each one made Zhuo Lan's popularity increase rapidly.
Lin Xiaoxiao privately asked the director of the artist department to find out that the announcements and TV series contracts that Zhuo Lan participated in were not arranged by the company, but were selected by Qiu Ming for Zhuo Lan.
No matter how Qiu Ming chose it or why he chose it, the result was that Zhuo Lan stepped down step by step and unexpectedly became "popular".
There may be an element of luck in this, but once or twice it is luck. If it happens so many times in a row, it is not as simple as luck... If this is not ability, then it can only be explained by "luck".
Then, Qiu Ming went to Qin Shu...
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't know what to say when she signed this "big contract" in person.
After a while, she picked up the phone and called the artist department to inquire in detail about the endorsement contract.
After the call ended, Lin Xiaoxiao was even more speechless.
The artist department said that originally, the company had no intention of pursuing this endorsement invitation.
The main reason was that the company couldn't find a very suitable candidate, so it didn't pay much attention to the invitation and randomly sent it to a few female stars in the company to see if they wanted to go.
No one else responded, probably because this endorsement invitation requires competition for positions, trial live broadcasts, etc. Everyone feels that if they can't be chosen, they won't be able to get through.
Only Qiu Ming saw it and took the initiative to find out more about it from the artist department.
They also compiled some so-called information about Qin Shu's yoga practice and handed it over to the artist department for them to help contact Qinglin Yoga.
Finally, Qin Shu went to participate in the trial live broadcast. It is said that his performance satisfied Qing Linyu, and he sent the contract to Feitianxia Media on the same day.
"Qinglin Yuga said that Qin Shu's Yuga level is very high. Even if the endorsement contract is fulfilled and they decide to change the spokesperson, they will sign a consulting contract with Qin Shu and be willing to let Qin Shu become their company's long-term partner.
product consultant..."
Lin Xiaoxiao felt a little emotional when she recalled the previous words of the head of the artist department.
She also knows that Qin Shu likes to practice yoga. Sometimes she asks the executive manager or artist assistant about what Qin Shu does in his spare time, and they will all answer that Qin Shu likes to read books and practice yoga.
Lin Xiaoxiao just listened and didn't pay much attention.
Many people like to read books and practice yoga, which seems to be no big deal.
She didn't know what Qin Shu's yoga level was, and she didn't want to know more about it.
But now it seems that she has neglected her duties as an agent, at least not knowing that the artists under her have such an advantage.
On the contrary, after Qiu Ming became Qin Shu's executive agent, he immediately discovered Qin Shu's strengths and won such a "big endorsement contract" because of it.
Lin Xiaoxiao was thinking about it when Xu Jinrong's voice suddenly came from behind: "Sister Xiaoxiao, what are you looking at so fascinatedly?"
"Um?"
Lin Xiaoxiao looked back and found that Xu Jinrong had walked behind her at some point.
Xu Jinrong said: "Sister, I've called you several times, but you didn't respond. Did something happen?"
Lin Xiaoxiao came to her senses, shook her head and said, "It's nothing, it's just that Qiu Minggang helped Qin Shu win an endorsement contract, 20 million in three years, which is pretty good."
When she heard "Qiu Ming", Xu Jinrong blinked: "Can I take a look?"
"Look!"
Lin Xiaoxiao handed the tablet directly to Xu Jinrong.
Xu Jinrong pursed her lips and looked quickly.
After reading it, she nodded: "Yoga, it's pretty good. Sister Shu likes to practice yoga, so this is quite suitable for her."
She didn't mention Qiu Ming and asked again: "The contract amount is not small. Does your agent and the execution agent get a share?"
The broker must have a share of the profit. It is impossible for Xu Jinrong not to know that. What she wanted to ask was the execution broker.
Lin Xiaoxiao looked back at her artist, without saying anything, and replied: "Our company's rule is that the artist contract will draw a commission, and then the agent will be divided every quarter. As for the executive agent... they will not get a commission.
.”
"oh!"
Xu Jinrong nodded and said nothing.
Lin Xiaoxiao paused for a moment before adding: "But the execution broker has a bonus. The amount of this order is not small, and the bonus should be quite large."
Xu Jinrong narrowed her eyes slightly and said "hmm".
She has been very busy with work recently. She has become famous and has been receiving notifications non-stop, so she has no free time at all.
