Su Yingxue frowned and said, "I know what you mean. Yunhai, I really admire your talent. Author, songwriter, singer, actor, and director. You've been involved in several industries, and you've achieved great results in all of them. People like you are the favorite of all entertainment companies, but your requirements are too high. I believe that no entertainment company will give you what you want. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled. He knew that Su Yingxue was right.
Freedom was easy to say, but it was too difficult to do. It was almost impossible.
Even a heavenly king couldn't be truly free. They would still have many restrictions.
For a newcomer to want these things, it was tantamount to a fool's dream.
Su Yingxue continued, "However, there are no absolutes. In view of your talent, I can promise to give you the most autonomy in your work arrangements on behalf of Tian Hua Management Company."
Xiao Yunhai's eyes lit up and asked, "You really agree?"
To be honest, he was really surprised.
If the company wanted their artists to make money for them, they had to maintain their popularity. How could they maintain it? That would require him to go out and participate in many activities, increase his exposure, and give him all kinds of advertisements.
Artists had to rely on the company to take care of everything for them. They had to help them promote and find good works for them. If they left the company, they would be like fish out of water. They couldn't survive and could only be exploited by the company.
If Tian Hua Management Company agreed to his conditions, they wouldn't be able to treat him like other artists. This was definitely disadvantageous for Tian Hua.
Su Yingxue nodded and smiled, "It seems that you don't dare to believe it yourself. However, you have to use your strength to obtain this autonomy. That is to say, you have to at least be worthy of the company's training. Your results will be the ruler of how much autonomy you get. For example, if you can make more money for the company than what the company has paid for you, then no one will care about you. On the contrary, if you can't even make the money the company has paid for you, then you won't have any autonomy to speak of. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's normal. Value determines everything. "
"Yes, that's what I mean. Artists without value aren't worth the company's training. "
"Then I would like to know the conditions of the contract."
"Of course." Su Yingxue took out the prepared agreement from her bag and said, "The terms of the major entertainment companies are more or less the same. They are divided into SABC, SABC, and SABC. The S tier was the highest tier and was mainly prepared for superstars. Next was the A tier, which belonged to A-list celebrities. The B-list celebrities belonged to the B-list and C-list celebrities, while the C-list celebrities were the lowest. With your popularity, we can make an exception and give you an A-grade contract. However, the contract period will be extended to ten years. "
When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he said resolutely, "Impossible. I will never sign such a long contract. I will only sign for three years at most. "
"Three years?" Su Yingxue shook her head and said angrily, "You are too insincere."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said with a smile, "Sister Xue, listen to me finish first. I don't need the company to provide me with any resources, including songs, roles in movies and TV series. I can do these things myself. The only thing I need is the various services provided by the company, as well as the company's distribution and publicity channels. As long as I have these, I can do my best. "
Su Yingxue looked at Xiao Yunhai's confident face and said, "Are you that confident?"
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Of course. I can make my own music and I can guarantee that each song will be a top song. I can write the script of the movie and TV series myself. If the company is willing to invest, I will naturally welcome it. If not, I can cooperate with other companies. I think no matter what the situation is, there should be no problem for me to get a role. "
Su Yingxue forced a smile and said, "I need to go back and discuss it with the company. I will give you an answer tomorrow. It's the first time I've seen an artist like you. "
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "Geniuses are allowed to stand out from the crowd."
After the business discussion was over, the three of them chatted and laughed, and then quickly left.
It was unknown how Su Yingxue convinced Tianhua Media Company, but they actually agreed to Xiao Yunhai's harsh conditions.
Xiao Yunhai signed his name on the two agreements, which had legal effect. From now on, he was a member of Tianhua Media Company.
Su Yingxue put away one agreement and handed the other to Xiao Yunhai. With a bright smile on her face, she stretched out her hand and said, "From today on, I'm your agent. I hope we can have a happy cooperation."
Xiao Yunhai shook hands with Su Yingxue and said, "Happy cooperation."
Su Yingxue originally wanted to arrange an assistant and driver for him, but because Xiao Yunhai was still a student and usually didn't have any activities, she was rejected by Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai told her that he would call her if he had something to do.
.....
The formation of the crew of "Step by Step" went very smoothly. All the staff were almost the original cast of "Kangxi the Great". After seeing the script, the male lead, Huang Peiqi, also agreed to play Kangxi again.
The other actors were also in full swing, but these were not things that Xiao Yunhai had to worry about.
Xiao Yunhai felt that it was a pity that Huang Bo couldn't play Shisan because of "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang". This was very depressing for Huang Bo.
But there was no other way. "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" was in full swing, and he couldn't leave every day. A newcomer like him was not qualified to shoot two TV series at the same time.
In desperation, he could only reluctantly give up.
Just thinking about the original cast of "Kangxi the Great" made Huang Bo so sad that he wanted to bang his head against the wall.
After waiting for another week, all the actors of "Step by Step by Step" were finally gathered.
Xiao Yunhai received a call from Chen Qingqing, asking him to gather at Hanhai Film Group tomorrow for a meeting. First, the main cast members could get to know each other, and second, they could prepare for the opening press conference.
Su Yingxue was Xiao Yunhai's agent, so he naturally had to tell Su Yingxue.
To Xiao Yunhai's surprise, Su Yingxue immediately drove over after receiving the news. She asked Xiao Yunhai to buy several outfits and found a professional stylist to measure Xiao Yunhai.
It had to be said that this was a professional. After one round, Xiao Yunhai's unique temperament was completely revealed, making the stylist very satisfied.
The next day, Su Yingxue found a driver for Xiao Yunhai, who drove a Mercedes-Benz to the Yenching Film Institute to pick up Xiao Yunhai. Originally, Xiao Yunhai refused. The school was not far from Hanhai Film Group, and he could take a taxi there. However, Su Yingxue severely criticized Xiao Yunhai's idea.
She told him that as a star, he must always pay attention to his identity and maintain a good image. He must never do something as degrading as taking a taxi in the future. Otherwise, not only would he lose face, but also the company's reputation would be affected.
Su Yingxue said a lot on the phone. In the end, Xiao Yunhai couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Ask the driver to come tomorrow at eight o 'clock." Then he quickly hung up the phone.
