Chapter 215 213. Brotherly Conversation
Looking at his agent staring at him excitedly, Nie Wei grinned and shook his head.
"I just think the tea is good today."
"Uh... this is the Queshe sent by Wang Zhonglei. I heard it is really good tea. Oh, do you really have no inspiration at all?" Hearing that it was not the answer he wanted, Luo Kai was a little depressed.
"It's not that easy to find a clue." Nie Wei put down the teacup with a wry smile and said, "You haven't watched the promotional documentary. The length of its content requires a lot of music, and we also have to communicate with the team that filmed this promotional documentary. And I think we have to visit the Forbidden City. Inspiration doesn't come easily."
"That's right, I'm too impatient." After Nie Wei explained this, Luo Kai scratched the back of his head embarrassedly.
Knowing that he couldn't be impatient, Luo Kai's mind immediately returned to the food he brought, and hurriedly pushed the lunch box in front of Nie Wei, urging him to eat.
However, Nie Wei, who was holding the teacup, was not thinking about the meal at this time. Instead, he asked Luo Kai: "Was this tea sent by Wang Zhonglei?"
"Yes." Luo Kai nodded: "You didn't come to the company yesterday, and Wang Zhonglei asked his secretary to bring it."
"Is it Wang Zhonglei's personal secretary?"
"Why, is there any problem?"
"Oh, nothing, I just want to know if the amount sent is enough. This tea is good, I like it very much." Nie Wei smiled and answered.
Luo Kai, who thought something was wrong, was relieved when he heard this, and then smiled and replied: "Don't worry, a tea can is enough for a season."
"Well, very good."
Putting down the teacup, Nie Wei took the food bought by Luo Kai. Although he did not tell Luo Kai clearly what to eat, the dishes he chose were undoubtedly what Nie Wei liked.
"The company meal tastes just so-so, but they've been quite considerate recently. When you come, they cook the dishes you like." Luo Kai said with a smile, and there was a lot of pride in his tone. There are only a handful of people in the company who can be taken care of like this, and Nie Wei, who he manages, is one of them.
Luo Kai is no longer the little agent who was so poor that he could only manage third-tier stars. As Nie Wei's fame grows, his fame also rises. Even in the latest quarter's internal selection of gold medal agents, Luo Kai is also among them.
The person who brought him such a change is naturally Nie Wei sitting in front of him.
And it is precisely because he knows who brought him to his current status that Luo Kai may also assist Nie Wei on the side.
He knew that he was not a man with many thoughts, so he did not hold Nie Wei back in the aspect of intrigue, but chose to take care of Nie Wei's life. For example, he would take notes seriously about what kind of food Nie Wei liked, what brand of water, even what style of clothes he liked, and what kind of room he liked to stay in, and then remember it carefully in his heart.
After two years, he had made half a notebook of notes, nearly a hundred pages, which was the main reason why he could take care of Nie Wei in every possible way in life.
Nie Wei naturally knew about Luo Kai's notes, which was also one of the reasons why he was very optimistic about Luo Kai. This agent was very "self-aware" and would work very hard and be grateful. So even if he felt that Luo Kai's mind was really a little slow, Nie Wei could tolerate it. After all, no one is perfect.
After the two of them had a meal in the lounge, Nie Wei pulled Luo Kai to watch the promotional video again. They watched it over and over again for an afternoon, and Luo Kai's eyes were blurred.
While Nie Wei and Luo Kai were watching the promotional video this afternoon, Wang Zhonglei drove to his brother's house.
"How is the company doing recently?" Wang Zhongjun had been abroad to develop the market before, and had only been back for two days, so he didn't know much about the company's recent situation.
"Very good, you also know that Lao Feng's "A World Without Thieves" has been unblocked, and Andy Lau from Hong Kong has also decided to participate. Although Milk Tea has not been finalized, with the joining of the king, I believe that they will soon give in. At most, we will make some concessions on the salary, but the combination of Milk Tea + Andy Lau will definitely allow us to double our money back." Wang Zhonglei said excitedly.
He was full of joy for this movie, especially last year's "Cell Phone" broke through 50 million, which made him look forward to this "A World Without Thieves" even more.
After listening to Wang Zhonglei's words, Wang Zhongjun also showed a bright smile on his face. Unlike Wang Zhonglei, he is more like a pure businessman, and he likes things that can bring him benefits.
"Besides "A World Without Thieves", how is Wang Jinghua doing?" Of course, Wang Zhongjun was not caught up in the beautiful prospect. After a while of happiness, he thought of the biggest hidden danger left in the company.
Thinking of this, Wang Zhongjun couldn't help but regret the cooperation with Wang Jinghua.
At that time, he only thought that he could use Wang Jinghua's hand to quickly build up Huayi's agency, but he never expected that this ambitious woman would want to occupy the magpie's nest. Now think about it, sometimes shortcuts are really not easy to take. If it is developed step by step and steadily, perhaps there will not be so many troubles now.
Up to now, this agency is simply a piece of cake for Huayi. On the one hand, it can bring great economic value to Huayi, but on the other hand, it is out of control. Even if you want to abandon it, you are reluctant to let it go. If you don't abandon it, you will. Under the control of that powerful woman Wang Jinghua.
In short, the Wang brothers all had a headache about this, especially Wang Zhonglei. When his brother mentioned this matter, his brows instantly knitted together.
One look at his brother's expression and Wang Zhongjun knew something was wrong.
"What's wrong? What's wrong with that woman?" Wang Zhongjun asked.
"Oh." Wang Zhonglei sighed, and then said: "As you know, we were getting along well a while ago. We provided resources and they provided stars. It's just that this woman Wang Jinghua didn't know what happened recently. She started to find trouble again and disliked me. Not enough emphasis on her star resources.”
Speaking of this, Wang Zhonglei's face suddenly showed anger, and his voice rose to a higher tone: "What do you mean by not being strong enough? I think this woman is so heartless that she can swallow 60% of the company's resources." The stars she owns account for more than the artists we cultivate. Isn’t that enough? I think even if it were given to Wang Jinghua 100%, that woman wouldn’t be satisfied!”
"Ahem, brother, calm down." Wang Zhongjun obviously didn't expect Wang Zhonglei to be so angry, and it seemed that Wang Jinghua was indeed bullied.
However, Wang Zhongjun has no good solution for the time being. After all, the company is still in the development stage, and Wang Jinghua's big names are still indispensable.
But when he thought about celebrities, Wang Zhongjun immediately remembered one person.
"Don't talk about Wang Jinghua, let's just wait and see what happens. The resources will be as much as they should be, neither increase nor decrease." Wang Zhongjun first set a tone for Wang Jinghua's matter, and then turned to ask: "What you mentioned before That Nie Wei, how are you doing lately?”
As soon as Wang Zhongjun mentioned Nie Wei, Wang Zhonglei's originally angry face suddenly turned into a touch of joy.
"Okay, surprisingly good." Wang Zhonglei replied.
"Oh? What's a good idea?" Wang Zhongjun didn't expect Wang Zhonglei to give such an answer, and immediately asked curiously.
"Of course it's because of how fast he became popular. You wouldn't have thought that this kid is definitely the No. 1 figure among his peers in China. I didn't even expect that in just two years, he could develop to this point. What's even more terrifying is There is also the loyalty of his fans, don’t you know? The box office of the previous movie "Go Left, Go Right" in the Mainland exceeded 10 million, and his fans contributed at least one-fifth of it! This is only apparent, but the actual benefits are much greater." Wang Zhonglei mentioned the matter of fans booking the venue again and couldn't help but marvel.
Wang Zhongjun also widened his eyes. He didn't know about this while abroad. Besides, Wang Zhonglei was basically in charge of the agency. Based on his trust in his younger brother, he never asked.
This time I curiously mentioned Nie Wei, but I didn't expect to get such a big surprise.
"So he's not far from the front line?" Wang Zhongjun asked.
"It's still half a step away." Wang Zhonglei replied helplessly: "He still lacks a representative role in the film industry. Although "Go Left, Go Right" has achieved good results, it is obviously not representative enough."
"Well, let's collect more scripts recently. Let's push him again. If this Nie Wei can cross the threshold, our brothers will be more confident when facing Wang Jinghua, and that woman will also have scruples." Wang Zhongjun I didn't expect that accepting Nie Wei would have such a good effect. Now it seems that this card is the right one.
What Wang Zhongjun didn't expect was that Wang Zhonglei, who had been talking excitedly about Nie Wei's results just now, his face suddenly darkened again.
"I also want to recommend this kid, but brother, don't forget, his contract only has more than a year left, especially in the last year, he can terminate the contract unconditionally."
"Uh... Is there still such a thing?" Wang Zhongjun was reminded by Wang Zhonglei and seemed to remember the contract he signed with Nie Wei, and he finally nodded.
"Then renew the contract quickly." Thinking of this, Wang Zhongjun said immediately.
"I think so too." Wang Zhonglei was very depressed: "I mentioned this to him a few days ago, but he pushed it away. However, he promised that if he continues to develop in the entertainment industry, he will definitely renew his contract with us. ”
"You have been in this business for so many years, but you are still stupid and naive. What's the point of a verbal agreement?" Wang Zhongjun scolded him unsatisfactorily. This younger brother was always too idealistic sometimes and not pragmatic at all.
"I think this Nie Wei is probably just waiting for a price. If you go back and offer better contract renewal terms, I don't believe he won't agree." After training Wang Zhonglei, Wang Zhongjun directly ordered.
But Wang Zhonglei, who was sitting opposite him, shook his head.
