After sending Gary Hendler away, Tang Shuxuan clarified Zhang Shaoping's doubts and said: "The value of a brokerage company mainly lies in its artists. The more superstars and big names signed by the company, the greater the potential and the greater the market value." High. International Innovation Management Company has been in serious trouble in recent years, and its top-notch artists are basically doing well. At this time, selling for seven to eight million is considered very good. " This is quite understandable. Artists have different opinions on managers. The company is as important as the writer to the newspaper company. They all rely on people to make a living. For example, Hong Kong's famous "Ming Pao" was saved by Jim Yong's novel writing. It can be said that one person saved one newspaper. Another example is Golden Harvest's signing of superstar Li Xiaolong, which was able to withstand the stormy blows of Shaw Brothers, survive the hardships, and come back to life. "I don't understand this. Since this company has run away with all its customers, what's the use of me getting it?" Zhang Shaoping frowned. All the artists have run away. What does this mean? This shows that brokers have left in large numbers, leaving brokerage companies nothing but empty shells. Another name for an agent in Hollywood is star agent, which means that the agent is the shadow of the star and will help him or her handle everything. When Ovitz came into contact with Hoffman, he once said the most famous saying: "We are ready to do everything for you, and we can even kill people for you." In a management company, it is not terrible for the artist to leave, the terrible thing is the agent People are changing jobs one after another, which means a loss of talent, and it also means that artists will be taken away by their managers. According to Tang Shuxuan, the mass exodus of first-class artists is definitely caused by their managers changing jobs. "Zhang Sheng. You don't understand this. Even though International Innovation Management Company has been severely damaged, its foundation is still there. After Jeffrey Berg came to power to rectify it, it has improved greatly. If today next year, the market value will be It will definitely double or triple." Seeing that Zhang Shaoping listened carefully, Tang Shuxuan continued to explain his doubts, and then said: "In Hollywood, the status of lawyers is very high. Basically, all artists will find a barrister to help them. They resolve various disputes. The agent represents the interests of the artist, and a good agent must have good dealings with at least one barrister to be able to help the artist handle matters well, no matter how strong the individual is. How can it compare to the power of a company? For example, the International Innovation Management Company has been in existence for so long, and has already established a network of relationships with the legal community, as well as with major TV stations and film companies. . As long as it survives and the network of connections expands, there will definitely be agents who will fall into the trap and come to seek refuge." It was rare for someone to listen to her. Tang Shuxuan was very talkative, and the more she talked, the more she exposed herself to Zhang Shaoping. Uncovering the mysteries of Hollywood's power class. Tang Shuxuan is a film major and has lived in the United States for a long time. She also has many classmates and alumni from the Hollywood entertainment industry who often interact with her, so she knows the power operation in Hollywood very well. The details are as detailed as every family treasure. After her prompting, Zhang Shaoping suddenly realized that in addition to the agent as a promoter, Hollywood stars also have a second hand behind them, that is, a high-profile lawyer. No wonder Gary Hendler, as a lawyer, is still doing his job as an investment banker. He dared to pat his chest and help Zhang Shaoping win the International Innovation Management Company. Zhang Shaoping smiled and said: "I didn't expect there were so many twists and turns. I have learned a lot today." "Of course, this is completely different from the rules of the game in Hong Kong's entertainment industry. If a Hong Kong film wants to be released in North America, To be accepted by the West, you must abide by the rules of the game here, otherwise, you will definitely not adapt to the local environment." Tang Shuxuan said here, and also cited Cheng Long as an example, "Jiahe invested in several films made by Cheng Long. This proves that Cheng Long doesn't buy the lead role here, and one of the reasons why it ended badly at the box office is that Cheng Long doesn't have a strong agency in Hollywood to rely on, so he is naturally in a bad position when negotiating with film companies. Weak. To outsiders, Hollywood is unprecedentedly united, especially when it comes to Hong Kong movies. They work in unison and sell copies of all their movies to Hong Kong theaters at very low prices to impact the Hong Kong film market. Of course, Zhang Shaoping knew this. The one that introduced the most Western movies to Hong Kong was the Anle Cinema Line. Since the profits from showing Western films are much greater than those from showing Hong Kong films, unless there is a one-stop operation of production, distribution and exhibition, Anle Cinema Line will never give up this piece of cake. After talking for a while, Zhang Shaoping stood up and left. Tang Shuxuan still looked like he was still trying to persuade him to stay. Zhang Shaoping hurriedly smiled and said, "Next time, Zhang will definitely have a pleasant talk with Miss Tang next time." He thought to himself: This Tang Shuxuan is really talkative! But when talking, Tang Shuxuan would go off topic from time to time, talk about making movies, and talk about her movie experience. If Zhang Shaoping was a person who made a living by making movies, he would be quite willing to listen to Tang Shuxuan's experience. Unfortunately, he is not, so he is not interested in these movie classics. Before Hu Mufang came to Los Angeles, Zhang Shaoping slept with Chen Yulian for one night, but after Hu Mufang came, Chen Yulian was afraid of being laughed at and refused to sleep with Zhang Shaoping. room. She ran to squeeze into a bed with Hu Mufang, leaving Zhang Shaoping who was extremely depressed, secretly regretting that she had not eaten her last night. Whenever he thought of last night¡¯s glamorous scene and the beauty¡¯s perfect body, the anger in Zhang Shaoping¡¯s body soared. He tossed and turned all night and couldn¡¯t sleep. He almost couldn¡¯t help but turn over and masturbate. The next day, when Chen Yulian saw Zhang Shaoping, she couldn't help being startled and asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Zhang Shaoping had panda eyes with bloodshot eyes. He glanced at Hu Mu Fang laughed and said, "It's okay. I got hurt from practicing boxing. I'm very energetic and it's normal." Hearing this nonsense, Chen Feihu almost laughed out loud. Zhang Shaoping glared at him and he quickly held it in with difficulty. , take a few quick steps and walk away. Chen Yulian asked doubtfully: "Really?" Zhang Shaoping took advantage of Hu Mufang to enter the elevator, lowered his head, and whispered against Chen Yulian's ear: "False! I didn't do it to you, I was thinking of you last night , Didn¡¯t sleep well.¡± Chen Yulian heard this. She didn't know what was going on with Zhang Shaoping, so she immediately spat: "Bad guy, you just think about these things all day long!" Her face turned red with embarrassment. Rushed into the elevator. However, Chen Yulian was still secretly happy that Zhang Shaoping could say this, which showed that Zhang Shaoping was obsessed with her. Even though this fascination may only be physical, sensual desire is essential to tether a man. After breakfast. Chen Yulian and Hu Mufang went to Tang Shuxuan and said that the three of them were going shopping. This surprised Zhang Shaoping, they had only met him a few times. When did the relationship between the three women get so good? The friendship between women is really strange, but they just talked about the man and their experiences of shopping and buying cosmetics, and they suddenly became good friends. Zhang Shaoping also has something to do. He made an appointment with Jiang Zhiqiang today. Meet at a coffee shop. Seeing Jiang Zhiqiang, Zhang Shaoping walked forward quickly and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, I'm sorry, I'm late." "It's okay, I just arrived, please sit down." Jiang Zhiqiang stood up and shook hands with Zhang Shaoping. Say hello. Zhang Shaoping is opposite Jiang Zhiqiang. Pull up a chair and sit down. Said: "Brother Jiang, thank you for your help, otherwise, how could Miss Tang be willing to give up my face and come out again!" Jiang Zhiqiang waved his hand and said: "Aping, please don't put gold on my face, I have I know very well how much it costs. This is Luo Weiming's contribution, and I can't take it all on myself. " "Haha, don't be humble. I know you both contributed a lot. "The two talked about the magazine for a while, and Zhang Shaoping asked: "When are you going to return to Hong Kong?" "We have booked a flight ticket for tomorrow." Jiang Zhiqiang sighed, "There is no way, we are running out of rice at home, just wait. Wait for me to buy some movies." Zhang Shaoping frowned and said, "You, Anle Cinemas, rely too much on Western movies. This is not a good thing. You even know how to spread risks when investing in stocks. You specialize in Western movies. It can be said that others have completely controlled your life. One day, once Hollywood stops selling you movie copies at low prices, I'm afraid you will suffer heavy losses." Jiang Zhiqiang said helplessly: "Then what can I do? I can't convince my brother, he values ??the profit sharing of Western movies too much! Fortunately, my dad has the foresight to open up the mainland's film market and leave a way to retreat or defend. Otherwise, I really don't know what to do. " Huh? Hearing this tone, it seemed that there was something going on. Zhang Shaoping suddenly became excited and asked with a smile: "Come, tell me, have you come to the conclusion of the cooperation with China Film Group?" "This is exactly what I want to say." Mentioning this matter, Jiang Zhiqiang's depression suddenly disappeared, and he said with a smile, "My old man made an appointment with Hu Jian, the general manager of China Film Group, to meet in Shenzhen on April 10 to discuss the joint venture to establish a cinema. We Your share has been reserved in advance. If you are willing, you can go and discuss it together. "It turns out that the Nanguo Film Center in Shenzhen has been completed, and Jiang Zuyi and Hu Jian, the general manager of China Film Group, met again and decided to use Shenzhen as a pilot city for cooperation. Build a theater together. In building a theater, both parties wanted to get what they needed. Hu Jian hoped that Jiang Zuyi, who had always been patriotic and highly respected in the Hong Kong theater industry, would return to the mainland to invest in the film industry, thereby driving the Hong Kong film industry northward and attracting elite talents in the film industry. Jiang Zuyi readily agreed to Hu Jian's proposal. First, he believed that the mainland's film market had great potential and would be the first to invest in it. Second, he did have a patriotic sentiment. After listening to Jiang Zhiqiang¡¯s words, Zhang Shaoping¡¯s eyes flashed, many calculations went through his mind, and he said with a smile: ¡°Yes, of course I am willing!¡±"Haha, I knew you would definitely go." Jiang Zhiqiang said with a smile, "When are you going to return to Hong Kong?" Zhang Shaoping said, "In a few days, I can't go back now." Jiang Zhiqiang Qi, I really wanted to ask him why he couldn't go back now, but he held back after all. The two talked about Hollywood again. Zhang Shaoping mentioned that his chain of video rental stores needs a lot of film sources. Jiang Zhiqiang said: "Film sources are easy to handle. Film and television companies in Europe and the United States, as long as you can help them make money." , the distribution of film and television drama tapes can be fully authorized to you, and even buying out the copyright is not out of the question. "Zhang Shaoping asked in surprise: "Of course! I have been exposed to the European and American film and television industry since I was 13 years old. I am very clear about my business fortune and will not lie to you." Jiang Zhiqiang smiled slightly and said, "Let me list some contact information for you. You can find someone to contact them and you will know whether it is true or false. "Have you even handed over your contact information? This is equivalent to opening up distribution channels to Zhang Shaoping. This is not a big favor! "Brother Jiang, if you're being polite, I won't say it, but I'll keep this favor in mind. If you need me, Zhang Shaoping, in the future, just ask." "Haha, why are you talking about this? If you have money, let's make it. Let's support each other. Well." Jiang Zhiqiang said cheerfully. Zhang Shaoping smiled and said: "Okay, let's make money together. This is true." Jiang Zhiqiang was happy. Distribution channels don't matter. Someone has channels. The relationship that exists cannot be run away. Why sell favors to the other party? What if he is happy but not doing it? To be honest, he values ??Zhang Shaoping very much and would be very happy to be on good terms with him. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
