The straight man in the entertainment circle

The next day, Jiang Da came to the door with a contract.

"Rieter Entertainment... You picked up the name of your company so casually. When you tell me, people think it's express delivery."

Seeing the company name on the contract, Lin Li felt helpless to complain.

"Hahaha, I'm planning to call Dalin Entertainment..."

When Lin Li heard this, he quickly said, like Darling, "Forget it, let's go to Rieter! Where is the company?"

"We have registered the company a long time ago. The headquarters is in Kyoto. We will find a branch office in Suzhou City soon, not far from your home."

Lin Li looked at the contract, which contained many matters that the company should serve Lin Li.

Including taking over work for artists, packaging artists, promoting artists, etc., the content is very detailed.

But there was no mention of what Lin Li was going to do. Lin Li was basically above all treaties.

The contract stipulates that all work matters must be agreed by Lin Li before they can be settled.

There is no limit to the contract period. As long as Lin Li proposes to terminate the contract, the company will terminate the contract within half a month.

There is no rule that Lin Li cannot fall in love, as long as the other party is not underage.

The contract also stated that the copyright of all songs and works created by Lin Li belonged to Lin Li himself, and the company could not carry out any operations without his permission.

As for the revenue share, it was completely opposite to the 70-30 ratio between Tianyun and the contestants. Jiang Da gave Lin Li 70% of the share, while the company only took 30%.

The 30% commission, apart from the promotional packaging and some basic travel expenses for company operations, is almost nothing.

Unless you are a first-line star, your appearance fee can only meet a certain standard without losing money.

Lin Li also knew this and said, "Let's split it into 55 cents."

"The contract is all set and it can't be changed. Let's just leave it as it is. Don't worry, I think I can make a profit before all my assets are lost."

The reason why Jiang Da offered such generous terms was so that Lin Li had no reason to reject him.

Faced with such a generous and even indulgent contract, Lin Li really couldn't refuse.

"I signed, don't regret it!" Lin Li said.

Jiang Da smiled: "Whoever regrets it will have a grandson!"

Jiang Da has full confidence in his vision.

He believes that Lin Li will be prosperous in the future, and he also understands Lin Li. If you treat him well, he will treat you better. If you treat him badly, you will be in trouble for the rest of your life.

So when it comes to how to treat Lin Li when signing a contract, Jiang Da always believes that suffering is a blessing!

If he couldn't establish enough trust in him now, it would be difficult for him to establish contact with him if Lin Li skyrocketed in the future.

Therefore, once Jiang Da came up with the idea of ​​signing a contract with Lin Li, he couldn't care less about the small profits in front of him.

Moreover, the money was not a huge loss to him.

As for breaking industry rules, he doesn't care.

He was quite similar to Lin Li in this regard, so Lin Li stopped worrying and picked up the pen to sign.

After flipping through it, Lin Li saw four copies in total. The contract should be in duplicate.

"Why one more?" Lin Li asked.

Jiang Da said with a smile: "Um... we sign Wu Ruobing again, do you have any objection? You are a brother, and she is a sister!"

Lin Li saw that the contents of the contract were the same, and there would be no other company in the world offering such a contract.

"Okay, I'll call her here. If nothing else, Ruo Bing is a good prodigal for you."

Jiang Da laughed after hearing this.

Lin Li called Wu Ruobing's mother and daughter and told them the whole story. They were also surprised.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Da is the son of Yili Group, and he was the mastermind behind the shady draft scandal that caused a stir on the Internet a while ago.

Knowing that Lin Li had signed the contract, Wu Ruobing signed it without hesitation.

"Well, can I be my son's agent?"

Seeing Lin Li finish signing, Song Wenjie asked from the side.

"Yes, I am also my daughter's agent." Zhang Li volunteered.

Lin Li and Wu Ruobing wanted to talk, but were forced back by the looks of the two old mothers, and they did not dare to have any objections.

Jiang Da smiled and said: "Two aunties, do you know what the agent is going to do?"

"Isn't it just to take care of them? We have both taken care of them for so many years. It's no problem. You have to spend money to find an agent, so why not let us earn it so that the money doesn't go to outsiders?" Song Wenjie said with a smile.

"Well, that makes sense." Jiang Da looked like he suddenly understood, "But besides taking care of their lives, the most important thing for an agent is to arrange work for them."

"Don't worry about this. We have arranged for them to study for so many years and we can arrange it well." Zhang Li said.

Jiang Da saw that Lin Li and Wu Ruobing had no objection, and Song Wenjie and Zhang Li were also very willing, so naturally they had no objection.

There are many parents in the industry who act as agents for their children.

Even if parents don't understand it at first, as parents, they are more attentive than outsiders, and most parents will quickly adapt to this job.

Jiang Da then briefly told the two of them about the work of an agent.

To put it bluntly, there are two aspects, one is life, taking good care of the artists. Of course, they have no problem with this. They have taken care of Lin Li and Wu Ruobing for more than ten years.

The second point may be unfamiliar to them, which is to take over work and arrange schedules for artists.

At this point, it is a test of the manager's level. For example, if you accept a script for an artist, some managers will choose the ones and the artist may become an instant success. But the agents who don't know how to choose will just choose some rubbish roles. An artist's popularity and reputation may be exhausted.

Of course, this is also related to the popularity and strength of the artist. Artists with high popularity have a wider range of choices. Artists with strength can still excel even in bad movies without losing their reputation.

However, this does not seem to be a big problem for Song Wenjie and Zhang Li. After all, Lin Li and Wu Ruobing are basically singing now. They are probably most responsible for commercial performances. The matter of selecting scripts will probably not be touched for a while. By the time they are exposed to it, they should also be able to adapt to the job.

Generally, artists only have one manager. Big-name artists will have life assistants, and bigger names will have several assistants.

For now, Lin Li and Wu Ruobing can only arrange one agent.

Most agents only have a fixed salary, ranging from ten thousand to hundreds of thousands.

Some particularly good managers will take a commission from the artist's income. The specific amount depends on the artist's ability and the agent's resources.

Song Wenjie and Zhang Li naturally do not have that level, so Rieter Company will give them a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan.

This is already a very high salary for them. After all, even if they don't pay, they still have to take care of these two boys.

After deciding, they also signed the agent's contract.

The talent show had come to an end, and Lin Li finally remembered something.

The college entrance examination has passed for more than a month, and the college entrance examination scores are about to come down.

The college entrance examination is one month earlier than the vacation for the first and second grade students. Now the final exams for the first and second grade students have just finished, and the real summer vacation has arrived.

Wang Lei called Lin Li a day in advance and asked to go to school with him.

Lin Li is now considered a well-known figure across the country, and he has many fans in Sioux City. As Lin Li's alma mater, Sioux City No. 3 Middle School has Lin Li's fans everywhere.

Wang Lei is trying to show off his power.

However, Lin Li didn't refuse. He was very popular in school, but if he had to say that the person he had the best friendship with was definitely Wang Lei.

Early in the morning, Wang Lei came to wait for Lin Li outside his house.

When he saw Lin Li, Wang Lei ran over, looked him over, and said, "Lin Li, you boy, you have become famous all over the world after only a month since we last met. You don't know that when you were away, the classmates in our class They are all pestered by classmates from other classes, asking for news about you and your affairs."

"It's not that exaggerated," Lin Li said with a smile.

"It's no exaggeration. We have just finished the college entrance examination. We are at home. If we were at school, I don't think we would want to study hard."

"It sounds like you studied hard in school."

Wang Lei smiled awkwardly and said, "Speaking of studying, Lin Li, have you estimated your score this time?"

The answers to the college entrance examination papers have been announced a long time ago, and everyone has an approximate estimate of how many points they can get. However, Lin Li has been busy with competitions these days, so he has no estimate.

"I don't have an estimate, but it should be close."

"I've made an estimate. If nothing goes wrong, my score is about 450. As for you, I think it's about the same. Which school are you going to apply to? Brother, I'll suffer a bit, so I can just apply to the same school as you."

Wang Lei and Lin Li had similar grades before, so he thought there would be no problem if they both wanted to go to the same school.

"I'm applying to Yenching University, you're applying too?" Lin Li asked provocatively.

Wang Lei was stunned, patted Lin Li's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Okay, you, it's different when you show your face on TV. Is it so inflated? If you dare to apply for Yenching University, I will accompany you to fill in the application. Why? So, that’s interesting!”

Lin Li suppressed his laughter and said, "Don't regret it!"

Wang Lei raised his eyebrows and said, "Only my grandson regrets it!"

Not long after the two of them walked out of the community, someone recognized Lin Li.

"Wow, is that Lin Li?"

"Yes, it's Lin Li!"

"What a forest!"

"Ah, it's really Lin Li, Lin Li, hello, I...can we take a photo with you?"

"Can I get an autograph?"

Lin Li's current fans are mostly students, and those who can recognize him are all middle school students. Four or five middle school students, both male and female, surrounded Lin Li, while Wang Lei had already been squeezed aside.

Wang Lei looked at that jealous person, why didn't he get such treatment?

Lin Li took photos and signed autographs for them one by one, and then waved goodbye.
