Travel through time and become a tycoon in the entertainment industry

Huayi, the interview venue of the Republic of China.

The scene was quiet.

All you could hear was the sound of breathing.

After Lin Chao finished his performance, the whole room was quiet and there was no movement.

Lin Chao looked at the status of the staff with some confusion and doubts in his heart.

There was something strange about him today. Not only was he extremely smooth when entering and exiting the scene, but his ability to convey emotions was much stronger.

Emotional appeal is an innate advantage for people who live on the screen.

Whether acting or singing, they all rely on emotional contagion to convey and express stories to the audience.

The stronger the ability of emotional contagion, the more the audience can empathize and feel the same, which means that the acting is good.

Lin Chao now comes with a BUFF stance output halo. Lin Chao never expected that this thing could be used in acting.

There was silence in the room. Wen Tao was the first to come back to his senses and said: "Lin Chao, right? It's you. With you, other Chen Caiyi and others are just messed up. Tell the people behind you, there is no need to audition." Alright, let’s disperse.”

Hearing this, the assistant standing behind the director frowned: "Director Wen, this is not good. We have to go through the cutscene no matter what. Otherwise, people will say that we are operating in secret."

Originally, there were only a few people auditioning, and there was no one behind Lin Chao. It was just a waste of eyes. Wen Tao thought for a while and didn't intend to leave any clues about the secret operation, so he simply endured it.

"Well, Lin Chao, please wait a moment to save yourself the trouble of running away. We will sign the contract in a moment." As Wen Tao said this, he asked his assistant to call people outside, which was inexplicably funny.

Lin Chao nodded and walked out. As for "Chi Ling" he wrote, he won't take it out for the time being.

As soon as Lin Chao went out, Wei Ming came over and said, "Brother Chao, how are you doing?"

Lin Chao looked at the other auditioners who were waiting eagerly next to him and said: "I don't know, I feel pretty good about myself. We have to wait for notification of the specific situation. Work hard."

After Lin Chao finished speaking, just as he was about to go aside to rest, Li Xue walked out, came to Lin Chao and said, "Let's go, let's talk about the two of us first."

Lin Chao thought that Li Xue would continue the audition inside, but he didn't expect that Li Xue would directly follow him out.

Lin Chao retracted his steps and followed Li Xue out of the audition location.

The top floor of Huayi.

Lin Chao sat in Li Xue's office and looked at the contract Li Xue gave him.

He did not completely sign with Huayi, but more like he was affiliated with Huayi and hired Li Xue as his agent.

In terms of music, Li Xue couldn't provide any good resources. He could only provide Huayi's production team and promotion. Lin Chao accounted for the majority of 70%, but this was limited to Lin Chao's own writing and singing.

In terms of film and television and commercial endorsements, Lin Chao and Li Xue will share the split 50-50. If Lin Chao provides the script copyright, the screenwriting fee will be calculated separately. In addition, Lin Chao can also participate in investment.

As for the songs written by Lin Chao but not sung, Li Xue and Huayi have the right of first refusal. However, the copyright goes directly to Lin Chao without Huayi making any profit, and the price and treatment are the same as those of songwriters of the same level in the industry.

As for the other terms, Lin Chao only scanned them once and found that there was nothing special. The contract period was only three years. As for Lin Chao, after he became the king or the best actor, the contract would be signed separately.

As soon as Lin Chao signed his name, he heard the system pop up: "Congratulations to the host, the agent signed the contract, and will be rewarded with 50% of Huayi's shares for successfully changing to the host's name."

"What the hell, I just found an agent and you gave her half of the company's shares? Isn't this outrageous? Even if it's not outrageous, couldn't you have given it earlier? Or you could have sent me a task reminder."

"Sorry, the rewards in this system have been revised. I will not inform the host of the rewards in advance before completing the task. If the host wants to get rewards, just roll them up. The more you roll up, the more blind boxes you will get, and the more exciting the rewards will be."

Who wants to open a blind box? He has always had bad luck with this kind of probability problem. He doesn't want to try his luck at all!

However, no matter how much Lin Chao complained, the system resolutely ignored Lin Chao.

After Lin Chao signed the contract, Li Xue took the contract and walked out. After a while, he sent a copy back to Lin Chao with a strange look in his eyes.

"When did you inherit the shares of Huayi?"

Lin Chao was stunned for a moment and murmured in his heart: He just got the reward, how come Li Xue knew about it?

Is the system a big mouth? Is information transmitted so quickly now?

Now that Lin Chao has spread the news, Lin Chao can only bite the bullet and say: "I don't know too much. I inherited a lot of things, and the procedures are a bit slow to change. I have just received a notice saying that it is Huayi's shares." It has been changed to my name."

Li Xue took a deep breath and muttered silently that she was not angry. It is good for artists to have money. In the past, few of the major shareholders of Huayi had seen it and they were unwilling to care about Huayi's affairs. Now that Lin Chao has inherited the inheritance, he should be more attentive. Otherwise, Li Xue Xue always felt that Lin Chao was teasing her before.

At least now she doesn't have to worry about how to keep Lin Chao and prevent him from starting a new business and swallowing up Huayi in the future.

Lin Chao signed a contract with Li Xue and waited for Wen Tao to finish. After signing the contract, he could go back.

As for the company's lounge, team, etc., Lin Chao didn't ask.

He had just signed a contract, and even if he asked, it would be impossible to match him immediately. However, his assistant Lin Chao asked, and this was what he urgently needed.

He will soon participate in a variety show, and then he will film a movie. Having an assistant by his side can help him manage his social accounts, confirm his schedule with Li Xue, etc., which can save him a lot of energy to show off.

As a long-established entertainment company, Huayi naturally has no shortage of professional assistants. Lin Chao can find an assistant of his own just waiting for the contract with Wen Tao to be signed.

After Lin Chao asked about the assistant, he lay down in Li Xue's office.

Li Xue looked at Lin Chao, who was spread out, and felt a little strange in her heart. Did she dig a hole for herself by signing Lin Chao? Why did she always feel that she was deceived?

This guy acted weird before, but now he's acting weird after signing the contract?

"You are already the company's major shareholder. What are your plans for the company's future?" Li Xue asked, looking at Lin Chao who was spread out.

"Sister Xue, you are also a shareholder. What do you think Huayi should do now?" Lin Chao asked back, seemingly unintentionally.

The biggest problem of Huayi now is that there are no young and old actors. The acting opportunities of the older generation of actors are already very narrow, and there are no actors of the younger generation except Gu Yang, Zhao Hede and Zhang Songwen.

The singer aspect is even more weak. Only Huang Jing and Zhang Hua are supporting them. Now even if they add one more, it won't be enough.

The rest are just some shrimp soldiers and crab generals, who cannot become popular and will not starve to death.

Seeing Li Xue looking like she was pulling her hair and sighing, Lin Chao said:

"What can I do? Just sign someone if there is no one else. Many of my stories need to be turned into movies and TV shows. As for songs, if there are good ideas, I can make two songs the title song of the album, but it can't just rely on me. Or You have to develop your own composition department.”

"We also know that we need to sign people, but the company really can't sign any good prospects now. The competition is too fierce."

"The landscape needs to be opened up. If we can't sign good artists, we can sign screenwriters, songwriters, directors, producers, producers and other resource-rich talents. Once we have bait fish, they will come naturally."

"There are very few people of this type with good talent and potential, and it is difficult for us to sign them in. Other companies are not stupid, and they all know that this type of talent is important."

"Then we don't want the top ones, as long as they are still good, we will catch them and train them. There will always be one or two that can be used.

There are only two or three title songs in an album, so don’t the rest just rely on these talents?

How many large-scale productions can the company launch each year? Apart from actors who are extremely talented, they also need to hone their skills. When the time comes, I will pick some good scripts and start a small-budget drama to hone them together. "

"It's a good idea, but there are only a few major TV stations with good ratings, and there are so many big productions scheduled every year. Who will buy your small-budget drama?" Li Xue felt a little dizzy when she thought about the TV station's schedule.

When talking about this, Lin Chao was a little puzzled. In this world with advanced technology, there are no video websites, but the above dramas have all been on TV stations. It is impossible for new dramas to premiere online.

It's like guarding the treasure mountain in vain, and still have to fight for food.

Just when Lin Chao wanted to ask Li Xue if he had any connections in this area, he heard that the director had already informed him to sign a contract.

He is not in a hurry about the webcast. The goods haven't been released yet, so he doesn't want to pave the way for others. When he has time later, he can talk to Nie Sheng about the webcast video website.
