The era of top influencers that started with illiteracy

Chapter 75: Accidentally Kicking a Steel Plate

Focused on entertainment, in the office.

After sending the text message, Yang Tianzhen still looked at her email address in the backend with some surprise.

Actually, he didn't finish saying all the messages in the group.

That's because she received more than just emails from Kiwi that morning.

At the same time, we also received a cooperation intention from Youku Video.

Most importantly, the emails from Youku arrive earlier than those from Qiyiguo.

To be honest, it's always nice when artists under the company actively seek out resources.

The problem is, the person they want to cooperate with is Shen Jian.

He had just said that his offer couldn't be too high.

The very next day, investors came looking for us, and we might even end up competing with each other.

That's a bit of a slap in the face.

Yang Tian really didn't want to see that guy's smug face.

The more I think about it, the more irritable I feel.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

Then agent Sun Wu walked in.

"Mr. Yang."

"What's up?"

Sun Wu: "President Yang, I still want to talk about Zhou Zifeng's A-level contract. Of course, I know you won't change the company's label, but I'm wondering if we can apply for better resources, such as appearing on a major platform's program next quarter."

Yang Tianzhen: "As you know, the company's variety show resources are already saturated."

Moreover, even for variety shows produced by major platforms, top-tier stars are given priority.

Sun Wu: "But Mr. Yang, Zhou Zifeng's current film and television resources are basically all supporting roles, like third or fourth male leads. Without increased exposure, his salary won't increase. How can he meet the conditions for an A-level contract?"

Yang Tianzhen: "The company will give you what it should, but more depends on the artist themselves."

"What about good timber?"

"Same here."

Sun Wu nodded: "So Shen Jian doesn't have any variety show opportunities anymore, right?"

Yang Tianzhen shook her head: "I didn't say that. The actual situation is that Shen Jian's performance in Xidan 2 has already attracted attention, so some platforms want to cooperate with him. The resources here are not provided by the company, but were obtained by himself."

"What? A major platform has approached him?"

Sun Wu was a little confused after hearing Yang Tianzhen's words.

I have absolutely no idea what's going on.

Is it possible for a platform to proactively reach out to a newcomer who has just debuted?

Anyway, he felt it was impossible.

As for the premiere of "Happy Singles 2" yesterday, he didn't watch it and was even more unaware of Shen Jian's performance.

In his mind, an illiterate person doing stand-up comedy would definitely be eliminated in the first round.

Yang Tianzhen: "If I were you, I would go back and take a good look at Shen Jian's performance on the show, and then plan how to motivate my own artists."

Instead of haggling with me here, asking for resources that can't be delegated in the first place.

The company uses an A/B contract system to select celebrities who can generate profits for the company, rather than creating a charity that only provides funding but never generates any return.

As he spoke.

Yang Tianzhen pointed and said, "Go outside and take a look. Jiahang, Hesong, Huanyu, Kaiyue, Guoran, Shidai Fengjun... which company isn't more ruthless than us?"

You're just mentoring newcomers now, but do you know that resource competition among top-tier celebrities is calculated on a daily basis? Do you think there's any room for newcomers to complain?

That's how this industry is; if you don't move forward, you fall behind. If you don't have the skills, no amount of talking will help.

Sun Tzu: "..."

...

...

outside the office.

Shen Jian had already brought the coffee outside. Seeing that there were people in the office, he simply waited in the small rest area outside.

And coincidentally, sitting opposite him was Zhou Zifeng.

I had actually seen him at the company before.

Many new employees are often seen moving around the company.

Because they also need training, or to learn other business skills.

Although we've met, we belong to different agents, so we don't really have any interaction.

Clearly, Zhou Zifeng was waiting for the outcome of Sun Wu asking Yang Tianzhen for resources.

Celebrities usually don't get involved in these kinds of things.

have to say.

Zhou Zifeng's appearance is quite good, at least it meets the aesthetic standards of today's young people.

Shen Jian is not his type.

He always felt that he shouldn't be categorized into those mass-produced "bracket heads".

The two locked eyes, seemingly unintentionally.

Zhou Zifeng took a sip of water, looking slightly shy, and then surprisingly took the initiative to greet him:

"Shen Jian, hello there. I know you. I've seen your illiterate videos online... Oh, sorry, it's your videos."

I even told my agent, Sun Wu, that our company has signed a promising talent. Among our batch of newcomers, you're definitely the first to get an A-level contract. Don't underestimate you just because you're illiterate; we all have high hopes for you.

However, Agent Sun is quite ambitious and still wanted to ask Manager Yang for some other resources. But I told him that it wasn't necessary; someone as talented as Brother Shen is more suitable for an A-level contract.

Goodness...

I thought he was a complete newbie, but it turns out he's a tea connoisseur!

Shen Jian smiled and said, "You have a good eye."

Zhou Zifeng: "Brother Shen, how about I talk to Sun Wu and we decide not to accept it? Even if we do give it to him, I feel it's unfair to both of us."

Shen Jian: "No need, there's nothing unfair about it, it's right to fight for it."

Zhou Zifeng: "Brother Shen, what if President Yang really provides good resources? You won't blame me, will you?"

There was nothing I could do; Manager Sun just really wanted me to stand up for him.

Shen Jian: "No way."

Zhou Zifeng: "Really? That's good. Actually, I'm not that obsessed with getting an A visa, but if I do get it first, don't be angry. As long as you work hard, you'll definitely get one."

Zhou Zifeng's words.

To Shen Jian, it sounded just like those useless mosquitoes flying around.

Buzzing.

The key is that it can't bite you; it just whispers in your ear, teasing you.

Shen Jian put down his cup, stood up, and then patted Zhou Zifeng on the shoulder.

"It's alright, don't worry. I didn't say anything. Besides, when it comes to resources, Mr. Yang can give them to whomever he wants. Even if he gives them to a dog, it's none of our business. Don't take it to heart."

"Okay, bro... uh, you?"

Zhou Zifeng then realized what was happening.

Available in the next second.

The person froze.

Shen Jianzai smiled at him at that moment.

Even though he hadn't done anything, the coldness of that smile permeated his entire body.

It felt like he was a madman who might pull out a dagger at any moment and stab him in the back.

Sometimes, it's not the petty people you're afraid of, but the crazy ones.

This kind of person fears nothing; even if they're just showing their bare buttocks and trending on social media, they can still sing "Sweet Honey" first.

Zhou Zifeng trembled all over as he watched.

He knew he was completely cheated on.

He was so frightened that his legs went weak and he plopped down on the stool.

Shen Jian looked down at him from his superior position:

"We're all newcomers to the entertainment industry, so no one should act like a pushover. When I was mentoring my brothers, your grandma was still in confinement after giving birth."

Remember, being a "green tea" (a manipulative woman) is fine, but be careful how often. You can also insult me, but only if you stand in front of me.
