    January 21, 1983, is a memorable day for the Hong Kong entertainment industry.  Because just today, a professional brokerage company was established in Hong Kong.  Hong Kong people in the past had no idea about brokerage companies, but after repeated reports during this period, both insiders and outsiders have a general understanding of such a company.  For outsiders, after having a management company, their favorite celebrities will have a management company to help plan whether they are going to travel, signing, or developing their future, so that they will not appear in front of the public and cause trouble.  Oolong.  It seems to be of great help to celebrities, especially those actors who are very popular. Their fans are very optimistic about the agency to create their favorite stars.  For insiders, especially those who will be signed, the establishment of the brokerage company proves that they have a new channel to make money. As long as they act in accordance with the contract, the brokerage company will work hard to give them  Arrange appropriate contracts.  For example, although Chen Long has not officially signed a contract, Li Mingbao sent a team of people to Mitsubishi to help Chen Long secure an endorsement contract.  Looks pretty good.  Of course, there are also many people in the industry who are disappointed, especially those actors who have had a more miserable life. Before the agency's plan came out, they thought something good would come to them, so they had always behaved  Very positive.  But who knew that after the details of the company were revealed, they discovered that their previous thoughts could only be said to be wishful thinking.  Those who should be aggressive are still aggressive, and those who can really get benefits are the top actors. Even the agency had no intention of signing new actors at the beginning.  Of course, these so-called newcomers do not mean those who have just debuted, but those who have worked hard in the circle for a year or two and have not yet made their mark.  The real newcomers should actually be those who are still taking classes in training classes. Those who have become monks halfway are not considered newcomers.  Li Mingbao does have plans to sign newcomers, and for Li Mingbao, the contract that earns the most profit will undoubtedly come from the newcomer contract. Top stars actually don¡¯t get much money, because they will actively fight for themselves.  Benefit.  Especially for someone like Zhou Runfa who holds the contract by himself. When he signed the contract with the agency, the initial contract was forty-six, Zhou Runfa had four, and the agency had six, which directly exceeded the highest limit for a newbie's three-year contract.  value.  And even if it is 40 or 60, it is still the first year of the contract. In the second year, Zhou Runfa will still be eligible to initiate a price increase. As long as his profit reaches a certain standard in the previous year, then Zhou Runfa's contract will be transferred in the second year.  It will be divided into 50 and 50. In the third year, it will be divided into 64 and 40. Until 73, this was before Zhou Runfa got an international contract. If there were contracts from Europe and the United States, the maximum contract Zhou Runfa could get would be 91.  , that is, if you earn ten yuan, Zhou Runfa can get nine yuan.  In that case, the company has Zhou Runfa¡¯s contract, which actually brings very limited benefits to the company, but because Zhou Runfa¡¯s signboard is loud, it indirectly promotes the company.  The real big money comes from the rookie contract. Especially for someone like Li Mingbao who knows who will be successful in the future, the rookie contract is extremely fat.  It's a pity that when the agency opens, there will be no contracts for new actors. The contracts that can be confirmed are relatively high-end contracts, at least for first-tier actors. Even the second-tier actors have not yet negotiated contracts with the agency.  It¡¯s not that those actors are unwilling to sign the contract. After all, they just sign a contract, their company won¡¯t say anything, and they can get benefits for free, so they have no reason not to sign.  The reason why such a situation occurs is entirely because the agency company is not fully prepared and there are not so many agents to serve the actors.  Even an actor like Zhou Runfa does not have his own independent team in the current brokerage company. From this point, we can see how tense the personnel in the brokerage company are.  Li Mingbao started preparing to set up a brokerage company very early and spent several months on it.  If this industry becomes very developed ten years later, then no matter how much Li Mingbao expands, there will be no problem at all. There will be a large number of practitioners elsewhere who can be used for Li Mingbao's selection.  But the problem is that there are many agents in Hollywood, but those who can really take charge are already very well paid there. The price for Li Mingbao to poach people is too high, especially for Hong Kong.  Cost is a huge problem. By then, a large part of Li Mingbao's profits will flow into the pockets of those agents instead of falling into Li Mingbao's pockets.  Although Li Mingbao¡¯s main purpose of creating such a company is to control Hong Kong.It¡¯s not like people in the film and television industry don¡¯t intend to make money. If it¡¯s a non-profitable project, Li Mingbao really doesn¡¯t want to get involved.  So starting this company to control actors is one key point, and making money is another key point.  It¡¯s obviously not feasible to directly go to Hollywood to poach people.  In addition, Li Mingbao, the agency, has new ideas for the company's planning. Even the top agent there will still inevitably need to be retrained when he comes to Li Mingbao.  Therefore, the actual quality of the personnel there does not really matter.  But after all, people there have to pay in US dollars, and the price is also high.  Rather than poaching people entirely there, it is better to poach people there and then train them in Hong Kong. The people in Hollywood will serve as the backbone, and the newly recruited people in Hong Kong will be used as seeds, and then the old people will be trained.  New, form combat effectiveness as soon as possible.  If Li Mingbao had one or two years to prepare, then this company would definitely not lack professional personnel. Even if he trained a large number of people himself, it would be enough.  But the problem is that if Li Mingbao really wants to make a difference in this industry, he must be quick. Otherwise, if others take the lead, Li Mingbao's company may not be so popular.  So when Li Mingbao started preparing to train professional agents, he started public relations for major film companies.  First, let Yongsheng come out to top the tank, but who knows that Yongsheng spends money to do nothing. Of course, it is not that he does not do anything at all, but that he does relatively few things, and important things need to be solved by Li Mingbao himself.  In this way, in order to avoid the news leaking, Li Mingbao had to speed up his pace, and finally got the major film companies in Hong Kong to relent. However, when he turned around and saw that the agent's training was lagging behind.  Although the status of Li Mingbao's company in Hong Kong will not be shaken as long as the company is established, the consequence of insufficient preparation is that there is not enough trained and qualified brokers.  Just by signing a new actor's contract, it is not difficult for one agent to manage several actors, or even more than ten actors to be managed by one agent.  But if Li Mingbao wants to make the company famous, the first batch of people to sign contracts must not be newcomers, otherwise others will think that Li Mingbao is not good enough.  As for top actors and first-line actors, no matter how experienced the agents are, they cannot manage multiple agents at one time. Unless the agent already has many agents to share the pressure with him, otherwise he has to rely on one person.  , he can serve two or three actors at once, and they are already top talents.  After all, actors at this level have too many things to consider. Unlike new actors, unless there happens to be news about you, generally not many people will pay attention to you, so on various issues, choose  There's a lot of room for that.  But for top actors, whether they have basic necessities, food, housing, transportation, or filming, they all need to have a detailed process. Even when filming a film, how to increase their exposure is a profound knowledge.  At this point, the actors on the later generations of the mainland did a lot perfectly. Just like the Cannes International Film Festival, there was nothing about it at all.  In the end, you have to spend your own money and go to the red carpet in Cannes to walk around. No matter whether the security guards will stop you, you first ask your own people to take the photos.  If you are being chased, stand a little longer; if you are being chased, stand a little longer.  ¡°Anyway, when I return to China, I will find a few familiar newspapers and talk about how I became so amazing and famous in Cannes, which makes people feel a little bit weird.  Even if I was the only one taking pictures in Cannes, I still have to say that I am the center of attention.  This is to increase exposure and enhance reputation. Without a professional team, it is simply impossible for you to play like this by yourself.  Although Li Mingbao¡¯s current brokerage company is not so ungrateful, it is only because of insufficient manpower, otherwise Li Mingbao would also put such copying methods in the company¡¯s articles of association.  Because of the shortage of manpower, there were not enough people to sign new appointments. Li Mingbao was both painful and troubled, but also secretly excited.  The painful thing is that I have been preparing for several months, but when facing such a new company, I seem to be ill-prepared, which is a bit of a slap in the face.  As for the excitement, it's very simple. It's because this time Li Mingbao's agency is completely focused on catching up with everyone.  "If we delay the opening of this agency for a few years, do you think we can still let so many Hong Kong film companies send their actors over eagerly?"  Not to mention Zhou Runfa and Chen Long, even if you can get others to deduct a few second-tier actors from your own company, it will be quite difficult, because no one likes to put their own money into other people's pockets for no reason.  go.  And now Li Mingbao has made such a time lag. Before those companies have fully understood how the agency company operates, he has brought Hong Kong actors into the spotlight.The market has been monopolized. If anyone wants to enter this market in the future, it depends on whether Li Mingbao agrees or not.  Of course, no matter how excited or depressed Li Mingbao is, Global International (Hong Kong) Brokerage Company officially opened its door at ten o'clock in the morning with a burst of crackling firecrackers.
