She dominates the entertainment industry with her disaster system

Su Lingxi kept listening and confirmed a guess in her heart: as she expected, Tracy was very eager to win her over for some currently unknown reasons, and she was even willing to lower herself in every possible way to win her over.

Although she really wanted to ask her why, Su Lingxi knew that now was not the time to ask for reasons - using this as an excuse to obtain more favorable contract terms for herself was what she should do.

"Yes, I think these emotions are closely related to my somewhat special profession. They are not all beneficial to me. Sometimes I have to learn to make appropriate choices..." Guessing what Tracy wanted to hear, she deliberately relaxed a little and pretended to be hesitant. "But growing up does not mean giving up everything you have. At least I don't think so."

The second classic negotiation skill is to never agree to the other party’s first offer immediately, and never reveal your inner eagerness.

In order to ensure smooth negotiations, she didn't mind cooperating with Tracy to be a "prey" - you know, an excessive sense of control can often confuse the human brain and lead to wrong judgments.

Perhaps noticing her obviously wavering attitude, Tracy smiled more gently, "Nicole, compared to the enviable achievements you have made, you are really too young. You know, some people may look down on you because of this, or even intend to lead you, but obviously, I am not one of them."

"We have an equal communication relationship, so I have to give you honest advice: UTA can pave a broader road for you in Hollywood, and it is your best choice."

“Your team is certainly excellent and capable, but after all, they are not that familiar with Hollywood, and there is only a limit to what they can do for you.”

Tracy's level of poaching is undoubtedly superb. With just a few gentle and elegant words, she not only pointed out the current shortcomings of Hengsheng, but also emphasized the strength of UTA. The words she chose between the lines were very objective, and there was no despicable behavior of praising one and demoting another.

As expected of UTA’s ace agent, his methods are truly extraordinary.

Su Lingxi smiled, and her eyes suddenly became sharper. "UTA's reputation and capabilities are known to the whole world, but I am not used to the overly strict management of a large company - so, for me, it may not be the best choice."

Tracy understood what she meant instantly. Not only was she not annoyed, but she raised the corners of her mouth: "Nicole, I think you may have some misunderstandings about UTA's management model. Rumors in the industry always like to demonize us, but in fact, every staff member in UTA fully respects the needs of the artists..."

Tracy was not afraid of Su Lingxi's suggestions at all. She was just afraid that she would refuse them without even considering them.

After all, in order to recruit her, Tracy had even given up the opportunity to win over Verina Melode.

She would not allow any second possibility to arise in today's conversation.

"So..." Su Lingxi took a sip of aloe vera juice and asked her question with a smile, "Can you accept the form of overseas agency sub-contracting?"

Her eyes were still clean and clear, but with a more penetrating sharpness, like glittering crystals, beautiful, dazzling, and crystal clear, as if they could reflect the ugly and dark thoughts in people's hearts.

Tracy looked at her in near shock, her mind in a state of high-speed storm.

Signing an overseas agency contract is a contract signing method chosen by many foreign artists. Its purpose is to capture both domestic and foreign markets: the US market is handed over to senior Hollywood agents, while the arrangements for activities in their own country are still handled by familiar domestic agencies.

There is nothing wrong with this signing method, but the priority of the contract will definitely be lower than those of full-time artists.

She thought Nicole Su was determined to break into the Hollywood circle, but she didn't expect that she was still nostalgic for the domestic market in China.

But think about it, China has a large population density, vast territory and abundant resources, and its film market is particularly hot. It is currently the second largest box office in the world after North America.

If it were her, it would be difficult for her to give up such a large film market in a short period of time.

Thinking of this, Tracy's stunned mood calmed down.

Although the situation suddenly changed from one that she could fully control to the passive state it is now, she was not angry in her heart. In fact, she was more surprised, and even had a hint of interest in it - the person she had carefully selected must have something special to deserve her special attention.

If she were allowed to achieve her goal so easily, she would inevitably feel a little contemptuous.

The harder the bone is, the more sense of accomplishment you will feel after chewing it.

"Of course, why not?" Tracy adjusted her attitude in time and smiled knowingly. "This form is very common in Hollywood. I think you should be very familiar with it."

"——However, if I were you, I would not choose such a contract form that is of no benefit to me."

"Within UTA, the priorities of celebrity clients are different. I'm sure you know this." She paused, her expression becoming subtle. "Once you sign an overseas sub-contract, it is destined that your priority will never be higher than those of full-contract clients. Even if you are more famous and capable, UTA will not allocate the best resources to you."

"Honey, can you see the difference? Are you sure you've thought it through?"

There was some disapproval in Tracy's tone, and her expression was serious and cold.

It was not until this moment that she revealed the image of the female executive that Su Lingxi had heard about in rumors—she acted decisively, forcefully and directly, and she lifted the veil between the two of them.

"You can only gain if you give up. I am a person who is easily content." Su Lingxi spread his hands, leaned back, and had a happy smile on his face. "I can't give up the Chinese market. At this stage, I only accept contracts in the form of sub-contracts, whether it is CAA or UTA."

Tracy was surprised to hear the name of her competitor. "Did CAA contact you?"

"Well, it happened not long ago, but their sincerity was seriously lacking. It was not worth it for me to talk to them in person."

Su Lingxi's disdainful tone successfully frightened Tracy.

She even disdained the invitation from CAA. Does this girl know what she is talking about?

She couldn't help but think of Daniel's comment again, and her heart suddenly became conflicted.

Overseas sub-contracts are also considered agency contracts. In any case, she should get the person in her hands as soon as possible. The contract and other things can be upgraded later.

But...she still felt a little unwilling.

Seeing the hesitation in Tracy's expression, Su Lingxi mercifully gave a new suggestion.

“In fact, our relationship can be more than just a contract with UTA.”

"what?"

"You know Hattie Jones, don't you?"
