Chapter 20: Glorious Transformation into a Worker
Su Moli's words were loud and made Chen Chen not know what to say for a moment.
Her meaning is very obvious. I know you will become a big hit in the future, so why don’t I start early?
After a while, Chen Chen smiled bitterly and said, "But this is too hasty!"
He hasn't reacted yet, it's too sudden.
Su Moli licked her lips and shook her fingers gently: "No, it's not hasty at all. Although you said you were going to study for a graduate student in the director department, the more you did this, the more I felt that you were ambitious. Not only did you have to make a fuss in the TV series circle, but you would also extend your hand to the movie circle."
"Besides, Qingqing, she has played supporting roles in several dramas and has gradually emerged in the circle. You may not know that in the circle, there are already several agency companies in the circle who want to sign her, but they are all blocked by me."
"Whether it is you or Qingqing, you all urgently need someone specializing in this matter, or a studio, to help you coordinate the resources of all parties, and I am just right."
Chen Chen sighed, he had to admit that Su Moli was right.
He is indeed not good at dealing with these things. Even in his previous life, these things were handled by the company and the agent for him.
After rubbing the swollen temples, Chen Chen said, "Marry, I don't want to ask some things, but since you want to set up a studio, I have to ask clearly, what is your identity?"
A good relationship means a good relationship, but serious things cannot make hasty decisions.
Chen Chen didn't ask before because it was unnecessary. It was no different for him whether Su Moli was a rich lady or a poor student. As long as she was Su Moli, she was his friend and Han Xiaoqing.
But it would be different if we wanted to form a studio together, and he had to figure out these things.
Su Moli was obviously ready and said, "I should have said before that my family also does this business. Now I won't hide it from you. My brother is the general manager of Cuixing Entertainment Company, Su Mu."
It's really big.
Chen Chen narrowed his eyes. He now has a certain understanding of the entertainment industry in this world.
Let’s not talk about the film and television industry for the time being. Just talking about the music industry, there are now two giants, Sony and Fireworks, which are first-tier music companies in the circle. The two have jointly occupied more than 50% of the music market.
Next, there are three slightly weak music companies, Cuixing, Jin Lan and Haiyan, which account for the remaining 30% of the market.
The remaining 20% is the one from the remaining hundreds of small and medium-sized music companies.
Among them, Cuixing Entertainment Company just underwent a senior restructuring last year. Chairman Su Daqiang retreated to the second line, and his son Su Mu became the company's general manager. In the past six months, he released three platinum records in a row, and his momentum was vaguely approaching the three giants.
Moreover, if Chen Chen remembers correctly, one of the joint investors of "The Female Hero Banxia" this time is Brilliant Entertainment.
No wonder Lin Xianzhang respected this young lady, it turned out that she was bringing the capital into the group...
"So, the last question." Chen Chen looked up and asked, "What is the relationship between your studio and the Brilliant Star?"
"It's okay!" Su Moli replied firmly: "Cuxing is the old man's hard work. He gave it to my brother, that's my brother. As for Moqing Studio, I'll correct it. It's not mine, it's me, Xiaoqing, and you, our three studios, have nothing to do with Cuixing!"
Chen Chen was silent for a moment, and he knew that Su Moli didn't tell the truth.
How could an entertainment company as big as the Star, complete the handover so simply? There must be some secrets in it.
But, does that matter?
Chen Chen suddenly laughed, stretched out his hand, and held Su Moli's stretched out hand: "Happy cooperation!"
So in this hasty joke, the two people who stomped their feet in the future officially reached a contract.
Moqing Studio is officially established!
As the general manager and investor of the studio, Su Moli invested 5 million yuan and occupied 80% of the studio's shares.
Chen Chen serves as an independent producer as an artist director of the studio. With the copyright of the two songs "Courage" and "Dimples", he occupies 15% of the studio's shares.
Han Xiaoqing serves as the first franchise artist, serving as the studio's chief artist, occupying 5% of the studio's shares.
Han Xiaoqing raised objections to this division, but was rejected by Su Moli, and said in her original words: "I invest in your future, not the present, and I don't have this courage, so what kind of studio will I open!"
As for Chen Chen, he didn't care much about this division. From which perspective, the two songs "Courage" and "Dimples" are definitely not sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan, but this is not important.
As Su Moli said, she values the future!
Chen Chen stretched and asked, "So, Mr. Su, what are we going to do next? Our studio is not really a straw troupe with only three people, right?"
Su Moli spread her hands: "The next thing is of course the first thing to do is to make money!"
Chen Chen touched his nose, why did he feel like he was on a pirate ship...
"You don't know, you're out of money?"
"Yes!" Miss Su was justified: "Do you think anyone can take out five million at will? I took out all the money. I have calculated the money, renting office buildings, registering studios, purchasing various equipment, and hiring people. I have done it all in a row. Can you have hundreds of thousands of dollars left on the book? If you don't make money, can you spend all your money?"
You are really right.
Chen Chen held his forehead and didn't know what to say. Is it too late to break the contract now?
"Since that's the case, how do we make money?"
"I have to ask you this, you are the director of the artist!" Miss Su said naturally, but seeing Chen Chen staring at her seriously, she couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable. She touched her nose and continued: "I have followed our old man for so many years, and I still have connections in the circle. I have contacted Haiyan Entertainment Company and used their sales and promotion channels to make the two songs "Courage" and "Dimples" into a single album."
Chen Chen frowned. This is a solution, just...
"Who will lead the singer?"
Su Moli pointed to Han Xiaoqing: "I plan to let Qingqing sing in "Courage", but your voice is definitely not good, but Shu Yuan, the leading male singer on Jin Lan, likes this song very much and asks him to sing with Qingqing."
Chen Chen has heard of Shu Yuan’s name. She is a top-tier male singer in China. She is famous for her popular love songs. Su Moli can get along with him. It seems that she is indeed the same as what she said. She is still connected in the circle, but...
"No!" Chen Chen waved his hand and vetoed it: "I don't object to you to make an album. I also believe that you have the resources and connections. But since you want to do it, just do it well. Although the songs "Courage" and "Dimples" are good, Qingqing is not a professional singer, which is not suitable. Moreover, "The Female Hero" has not been completed yet, and with the subsequent promotion and training, she has no time."
Han Xiaoqing blinked her eyes and promoted her understanding, but training.
???
Chen Chen pointed to the script in her hand: "This book is customized for you, but with your current acting skills, you can't master it. So, for the next period of time, your main task is to learn! Jasmine, you will look for a better performance teacher and give her a special training."
Han Xiaoqing's little face was almost wrinkled into bitter gourd, and she said pitifully: "Can you not go?"
Chen Chen pinched her face in anger: "That's fine, then you can give up on this script. The character who can't get it will be in vain if he plays it."
Han Xiaoqing had a bitter face. She liked acting, but she really didn't like class. But after reading the script in her hand, she really liked it. She couldn't resist Chen Chen and could only nod her head bitterly.
Su Moli frowned and thought for a while, nodded: "If Qingqing can't succeed, then what do you mean?"
Chen Chen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Aren't you connected? Since anyone of Shu Yuan's level can be found, it's not difficult to find a suitable female singer, right?"
Su Moli looked up, looked at Chen Chen, thought for a while, and then agreed.
She knew that this was the test question given to her by Chen Chen, and he needed to know how big a connection she had in this circle.
Since that's the case, let's take a look at my methods!
Chapter completed!
