Entertainment Empire - Chapter 899
c-1 Overslept
Luo Xun slowly raised his head.
The building standing in front of me is Tianguang Entertainment, one of China’s top entertainment companies, and it is also the artist management company I signed with. Although there is not much time left in this artist contract——
Two years later.
He’s back here again.
Many people have forgotten the little idol singer who was put in cold storage by the company not long after her debut. The girl who made her leave sadly is now one of the four most popular actresses in the entertainment industry. She often falls in love inadvertently. You can see entertainment news about her.
Time flies, things change and people change.
Luo Xun knew that in the two years since he left, Tianguang’s development had become smoother and smoother. There were kings and queens in the music world, and movie kings and queens gathered in the film and television industry. There were only a few peers left in the country who could compete with them. Even his manager Song Jiahao has produced several outstanding artists in the past two years, which is called a star-making miracle by the industry and the media!
I missed it.
It has been two years of rapid development for Tianguang.
If it hadn’t been for that incident, I could have made a steady debut. After two years of hard work, relying on Tianguang’s resources, my own relatively good conditions, and the ability of my manager, I might now have a certain degree of popularity and take root. In this entertainment industry…
Lift your feet forward.
As expected, he was stopped by the security guard at the entrance of Tianguang Entertainment. After all, he had been away for two years and the security guard had not recognized him for a long time. After some negotiation, Luo Xun was able to pass.
Enter the company.
No need to read the signs.
Everything around is very familiar. Although the decoration here is obviously much more luxurious than when I left two years ago, the distribution of the rooms is not much different from before. For example, go straight to the trainee dormitory on the fourth floor, and then For example, the row of practice rooms on the left side of the fifth floor where I have worked countless sweats…
After communicating with the front desk.
Luo found an office.
After knocking on the door, a voice came from inside, and Lu Xun pushed the door open. Inside was a man who was working with his head down. He was about thirty years old, giving people a mature and stable feeling.
“What’s the matter?”
The man who was sitting in front of the computer thinking about something spoke and looked up at Luo Xun at the door. Then his face changed slightly, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes:
“Luo Xun?”
“haven’t seen you for a long time.”
Luo Xun responded with a smile.
Song Jiahao, his manager, was just like him in Tianguang. He was a little-known figure in the company, and he was only responsible for two or three young trainees who had just debuted.
The result was unexpected.
He has been away for two years, but Song Jiahao is no longer what he used to be. He has shown extraordinary abilities and methods, and has become famous for several artists one after another. He is called a star-making miracle by the media in the industry. Naturally, his status in the company has also improved. With this kind of talent in front of him, Luxurious independent office.
“You’re back.”
Song Jiahao temporarily put down his work, crossed his hands, and looked at Luo Xun: “We haven’t seen each other for two years. We have changed a lot. You are now…about 1.8 meters tall, right?”
“Exactly 1.8 meters.”
Luo Xun answered the other party softly.
Song Jiahao nodded, tapped the table with his fingers, and said slowly: “Twenty-one years old, 1.8 meters tall, maybe he can move a few centimeters in the future, and his appearance is not bad, although he is not a particularly stunning one. , but the advantage is that it is eye-catching enough. If I arrange for you to debut again as an idol singer, you might be able to achieve results——”
Song Jiahao has changed.
He is no longer the shabby agent he was before. He has the aura of a high-ranking person and speaks with strong confidence. His success in the past two years has given him an elite aura.
“terribly sorry.”
After the other party finished speaking, Luo Xun spoke: “Idol singers are not suitable for me. If possible, I would like to ask you to help me pick up a role, whether it is a TV series or a movie.”
“Still want to act?”
Song Jiahao narrowed his eyes slightly.
Information about Luo Xun also flashed through his mind. He was born as an orphan. Because of his good conditions in all aspects, he was selected by Tianguang to become a trainee of the company at the age of sixteen. He practiced for three years and got the opportunity to debut as a singer at the age of nineteen. ——
Trainees are star reserves.
It is difficult for any trainee to resist the media spotlight, yearning for flowers and applause. Although Luo Xun was put in cold storage by the company for two years because of that incident, two years later Luo Xun still has a clear goal. He entered the entertainment industry, but he was different from other trainees. Other trainees wanted to become idols and artists, but Luo Xun liked acting and stubbornly wanted to be an actor.
It’s a pity that the company positions Luo Xun as an idol singer.
Therefore, although Luo Xun wanted to act in the past, he could not resist the company’s decision and could only become an idol singer. But now no one cares about Luo Xun. The moment he became an outcast, many things changed. It becomes simple.
“You know your situation well.”
Song Jiahao sighed: “In the past, when you wanted to make your acting debut, the company didn’t allow it, but now the company doesn’t care. From my point of view, it’s not appropriate to say such a thing, but you did not do anything wrong at the time. Since If you want to film, I will make it happen.”
“Thanks.”
Luo Xun didn’t know whether Song Jiahao’s words were true or not, but this result was at least better than being directly rejected by the other party. It seemed that although the other party was different now, he still cherished the friendship he had before.
“The opportunity can be given to you…”
Narrowing his eyes slightly, Song Jiahao’s face suddenly became less warm than before, and his voice suddenly became cold, with a hint of warning: “But remember, Zhang Suining is no longer someone you can mess with. One of the favorites, the company’s pet peeve, anyone who tries to flirt with her is seeking death. Back then, just because you had been in love with her for two years, the company forced you to study in a place hundreds of thousands of miles away. To put it nicely, Study, but who doesn’t know that it is refrigeration in disguise, exile, and distribution to the frontier?”
Song Jiahao stared at Luo Xun.
It seems that the momentum he has gathered from his continuous success in the past two years is all contained in these words. He gave the opportunity and warned him, which was quite a combination of kindness and power.
Luo Xun’s expression did not change.
Zhang Suining is Luo Xun’s first girlfriend.
The two have been together for nearly two years and have a deep relationship. However, love in the entertainment industry is never blessed. When Zhang Sui Ning debuted in her first TV series, she quickly became popular. Because her stardom was smooth, her schedule was packed with announcements. , even the time to make a phone call with Luo Xun, her boyfriend, seemed luxurious.
The gap between them is constantly widening.
Later, the company discovered the relationship between the two, and worried that this incident would affect Zhang Suining’s stardom, they intervened forcefully to beat the couple. This obstacle became the straw that broke the camel’s back, and the two finally broke up. .
Zhang Suining is on the rise in her career.
The company provides heavy protection.
But Luo Xun, a trainee who had just debuted under the arrangement of the company, was put in cold storage for two years and sent to another place to study because he offended the company in this matter. He stayed there for two years, and it was not until today that the ban was lifted and he was able to return. .
“I heard…”
Song Jiahao knew that this matter was in the past and should not be brought up again. He just gave a warning and then softened his tone: “You had a car accident on your way to study abroad. I was worried for a while. Fortunately, you are okay.”
“Thanks.”
Luo Xun said with a smile.
Song Jiahao’s method of combining strength and softness would have probably made him obedient before. But the problem was that he was not the stupid boy he was back then.
I sighed inwardly.
He originally thought that Song Jiahao was willing to help because of his past friendship, but he did not expect that the other party only agreed to his terms because he was worried that his return would affect Zhang Suining’s career as an artist. In Song Jiahao’s eyes, Here, he is like a time bomb targeting Zhang Suining’s career future, and he needs to be comforted in this way…
How ironic.
It’s a pity that Song Jiahao didn’t want to be polite before fighting, and use a combination of strength and softness, because Luo Xun never intended to make a fuss about his original relationship with Zhang Sui Ning. Ever since they broke up, they have become two different people. The intersecting straight lines are getting farther and farther away…
Farewell Song Jiahao.
Luo Xun walked out of the office.
Song Jiahao looked at Luo Xun’s back and said softly: “He is a good seedling and has certain cultivation value. It’s a pity that you provoked people who shouldn’t be provoked. This is fate. In our industry, sometimes, you have to trust Life, some people’s lives shouldn’t be red…”
The company has developed rapidly in the past two years.
Luo Xun missed an unprecedented opportunity.
Tianguang has now entered a stable period, and the company has no plans to continue to introduce new employees. Even the resource allocation has been basically fixed.
It’s true that Song Jiahao is still Luo Xun’s manager.
But now it is no different than before. Song Jiahao, a gold medal manager, has more than ten artists in his hands, including even big-name stars on the front line. Compared with these people, Luo Xun’s value is about zero. Why should he help Luo Xun? ?
Just because he is Luo Xun’s agent?
Don’t be stupid. There may be agents and artists who have deep feelings, but the relationship is more about superficial work interests. Luo Xun can’t bring benefits to Song Jiahao, and Song Jiahao doesn’t think Luo Xun is such a good prospect. He How could he be interested in training Luo Xun from scratch?
Not to mention…
Luo Xun is an outcast who failed in his debut.
In essence, Song Jiahao still represents Tianguang’s interests, and the relationship between entertainment companies and artists has always been cooperation and exploitation. Unless the artists can make their own way, set up their own studios, or even create their own companies, But after so many years in the entertainment industry, how many carps have been eager to jump over the dragon gate, and how many have truly succeeded?
This is a real big wave!
Luo Xun was also thinking about the same question.
How difficult is it for an artist to get ahead? How many faces can the audience see on TV networks, and how many faces are rooted in this industry and work hard without any cameras. What is the fulcrum that supports your success?
His answer is…
The original owner of this body died two years ago, in a car accident where he was refrigerated and transported. Now, he is replaced by a soul with the same name and the same name from Earth in 2019!
