When Tian Lin heard Kang Hui mention the word "conditions", he felt a little hesitant. He hesitated and said: "The share ratio we gave Chen Minhao is 3%, which is already very high. There is no room for further adjustment. If If it is raised further, other investors will not be happy.
Well, let me show some sincerity and convince other investors not to set a baseline of 100 million. No matter how much the box office is, should we share 3%? In other words, if "Detective" has a box office of 1 billion, Chen Minhao's box office share will be 30 million. "
Kang Hui flipped his hair and said with a smile: "You just said that I am older than you and you want to call me sister. Can I, as a sister, make it difficult for you?"
After Tian Lin heard that Kang Hui specifically emphasized the word "sister" twice, he wondered if he had done something wrong just now.
Kang pinched the rim of the cup with his thumb and index finger, held the bottom of the cup with his middle finger, took a sip of tea, and said calmly: "Besides, talking about money is so vulgar. By the way, Chen Minhao is going to release a new album soon. Teacher Hu should know that, right?"
Hu Defa was a little confused and thought: Why did Cue catch me? But he nodded and said, "I know, the songs in the album are of good quality. I also helped Chen Minhao shoot two MVs."
Kang Hui nodded, added some water to Hu Defa's tea cup, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Teacher Hu, for your help. Regarding my conditions for getting Chen Minhao's fans, I just said it directly: I hope that during the road show, Chen Minhao can By the way, I’d like to mention my new album.”
Tian Lin subconsciously objected: "After the movie is released, we don't mind Chen Minhao promoting the new album at all, and we can even provide some help through channels. But during the road show, we still hope to focus on promoting the movie."
Kang Hui gently put down the tea cup in his hand and said: "Of course the road show is mainly to promote the movie. As for his album, I just mentioned it in passing. And, if you think about it, brother, even if Chen Minhao doesn't take the initiative to mention it, but in the interaction at the scene Fans will definitely ask questions during the road show. Secondly, I can guarantee that during the road show, Chen Minhao will distinguish the priorities."
Tian Lin touched his chin beard and fell into thinking.
Kang Hui immediately added while the iron was hot: "You asked Chen Minhao to do the road show because you valued his popularity. Chen Minhao's fans are looking forward to this album. He casually mentioned the album during the road show, which will definitely arouse heated discussions. The road show will Attracting more people's attention will also help promote the movie "Detective"."
Kang Hui leaned forward, looked at Tian Lin and said, "The most important thing is, without me, you can't get Chen Minhao's fans."
Tian Lin ignored Kang Hui. He turned to look at Chen Minhao and said, "I have never heard of an actor promoting his other works during a movie road show. Chen Minhao, do you think the conditions proposed by your agent are reasonable?"
Chen Minhao ignored Tian Lin's reluctant look and said, "Don't ask me. To be honest, I can't even handle my fans."
Tian Lin thought seriously for dozens of seconds, and finally nodded, and said seriously: "Sister Kang, remember your promise, you must prioritize the promotion of movies and promotions of albums, otherwise don't blame me for turning your back on others."
Kang Hui seemed not to have heard the threat in Tian Lin's words, and smiled like Yan: "Your goal is to make the movie have a high box office, and our goal is the same. Of course, we will distinguish priorities."
Tian Lin was also a man who had experienced ups and downs. Since he had already nodded in agreement, he borrowed the donkey to go downhill and made some witty remarks. The atmosphere in the entire private room in the teahouse became active again.
The four of them chatted for more than 20 minutes. Kang Hui and Chen Minhao noticed that Tian Lin picked up the bowl instead of drinking. They guessed that Tian Lin and the others might have something to do, so they issued an eviction order. This is the so-called "serving tea to see guests off".
In Chinese tea culture, when the guest and host have nothing to say or the host is tired of accompanying the guest, he or she will pick up the bowl without drinking, implying that it is time for the guest to leave.
After Kang Hui and Chen Minhao left, Tian Lin's expression immediately turned from sunny to gloomy. He slammed the tureen on the table and said angrily: "What's going on with Chen Minhao, an agent? It's the first time I've met such a tough agent in front of investors, and she was too demanding when she mentioned it." Isn’t it too much, promoting Chen Minhao’s album during the road show? Such excessive conditions can be said.”
Hu Defa used a teapot to refill Tian Lin's tea: "Don't worry, Chen Minhao should know the importance and won't let the promotion of the album take over. And what Kang Hui said makes sense. By the way, the album will also be helpful for road shows."
Tian Lin's brows still tightened and he said: "It's not that I don't understand this truth, I just can't swallow this anger."
Hu Defa took a deep breath, smelled the tea soup, and said slowly: "Why can't you swallow this? I just saw you agreeing very quickly."
Life is already so difficult, so don’t expose some things.
The private room in the tea house fell into silence, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
If the atmosphere in the private room of the teahouse was gloomy, then the atmosphere in the car where Chen Minhao and Kang Hui were riding could be described as joyful.
Chen Minhao praised: "Sister Kang, the condition you just mentioned: that I can promote the album during the road show is really a stroke of genius."
Kang Hui smiled: "Luo Tianyi thought of this, including how to negotiate terms with investors, and she told me after thinking about it."
Men should never praise another woman in front of a woman, no matter what the relationship between the two is. Chen Minhao changed the subject without leaving any trace and said: "But I'm a little curious. You just mentioned about fans. How do you ensure that fans don't cause trouble for them?"
Kang Hui lifted his bangs and said: "Two methods. First, some of your fans are fans who are connected with the studio, that is, KOL opinion leaders among your fans. We can contact them. Let them set the pace, and secondly, let the fans know through the grapevine that you get a share and that you do it voluntarily."
"But these are not important, because investors can also get it through other ways." Kang Hui smiled proudly: "The important thing is, if they don't agree to this condition, I will make sure your fans will find it." They’re troublesome.”
Kang Hui said coaxingly: "Sometimes when you want others to agree to the conditions you propose, what matters is not how much help you can provide them, but how much harm and destruction you can cause them. There is a saying that is good. , Weak countries have no diplomacy. In fact, people, companies and even countries are all the same. If you are not a threat to others, why should others listen to you."
Chen Minhao nodded thoughtfully. When he came to his senses, he saw Kang Hui holding a small mirror and looking into the corner of his eyes.
Kang Hui touched the corners of his eyes and asked, "Chen Minhao, am I really old?"
Chen Minhao immediately said: "I am not old, Sister Kang will always be 18 years old."
Kang Hui frowned and said: "Tian Lin actually said that he wanted to call me sister. I will let him know how powerful his sister is in the future. But these capital parties are really evil-minded maggots. The intensity of their road show arrangements is really It's too big, can you bear it? Remember, your body is your own, no one will do anything to you even if you miss a few road shows."
Chen Minhao stretched out and said, "Sister Kang, don't worry, your body can handle it. Everyone on the Foxconn assembly line works much harder than me, and it's not like I don't get paid, so there's no reason to be lazy."
Kang Hui nodded and said, "But having said that, this little girl Luo Tianyi can think of using a movie roadshow to promote your album, and she can also think of a way to get investors to agree. It's quite unexpected. What do you think? How about this little girl Luo Tianyi?"
Chen Minhao grinned and said: "I think her heart is darker than a blackened maggot, but I like it."
Two days later, on June 4, Chen Minhao asked for leave from school and arrived at the first stop of the roadshow, Shuimu University.
Colleges are indeed a good place for road shows. It is rare to find a venue like a college where a large number of young people gather and the venue fee is not high.
However, it is not that easy for ordinary movies to enter the campus. After all, the school is a place for teaching and educating people, so the school does not want too commercial activities to enter the campus.
Therefore, film producers often need to package high-end and reasonable event titles and themes to gain support from the school.
This time Chen Minhao came to Shuimu University to participate in a series of lectures under the banner of "Shuimu Lecture Hall, Dialogue with Everyone". Chen Minhao's task this time was to share his past experiences with students and share stories behind the scenes of the movie, so as to achieve the purpose of a road show.
