Bai Ze asked Lu Xu to sit down, walked to the bar and turned around to ask him: "I have black tea, coffee and drinks here, what would you like to drink, Mr. Lu?"
"Don't bother, Mr. Bai, just give me a glass of water."
Bai Ze took out the mineral water, leaned over and handed it to Lu Xu and sat opposite him: "I just found out today that the Death God Department also recruits people based on appearance." If they hadn't given him a heads-up in advance, Bai Ze really couldn't connect the big boy in front of him who was talking and laughing with the guide of the underworld who was surrounded by the breath of death.
Lu Xu's image is sunny and healthy, with light in his eyes. At first glance, he is a handsome boy, and he is quite charming.
Bai Ze has cultivated so many artists, and he can tell who is popular and who is not at a glance.
"Thank you, Mr. Bai." Facing Bai Ze's compliment, Lu Xu's face was very calm, and his mouth raised a beautiful arc, "So, can you arrange for me to participate in the talent show?"
Bai Ze crossed his hands on his knees, his suit was spotless, without even a wrinkle: "Mr. Lu is a contracted artist of my company, we will naturally recommend you to participate in "The Birth of an Idol." "
Lu Xu raised an eyebrow: "Contracted artist?" After thinking about it, he understood the selection requirements of the program and nodded, "I do want to register as a contracted trainee of your company, but I'm just going there for a formality, and I probably won't be able to record many shows."
The implication was to greet Bai Ze in advance, after all, he took up his place.
"Of course I understand Mr. Lu's work, but the talent show is different from our private life. It will be a closed training and recording, with several cameras in the room, and the trainees' every word and action will be captured by the camera. Since Mr. Lu has taken our company's quota to participate, I hope Mr. Lu can be more serious when recording."
Yaoguai Entertainment does not have many artists under its banner, but all of them are capable and have a good reputation in the entertainment industry.
No one wants to ruin his reputation, so Lu Xu nodded to show that he understood: "Don't worry, Mr. Bai, I will cooperate with the recording wherever I am. But I can't guarantee that I will go all the way, and you need to understand this."
"Of course." Bai Ze called the secretary and said in a brisk tone, "Secretary Zhang, please send the contract over."
Not long after, Secretary Zhang knocked on the door and walked in: "Mr. Bai, this is the contract with Mr. Lu."
Lu Xu vaguely remembered that when he just walked in, Secretary Zhang was waving his eight octopus claws and busy. Some claws were busy sorting out reports, some claws were busy sending and receiving express deliveries, and two claws were typing on the keyboard to enter data.
Seeing Lu Xu sizing up Secretary Zhang, Bai Ze smiled and praised the employee: "Secretary Zhang is a veteran employee of the company and is very capable at work. She is responsible for organizing and printing the company's promotional copy and various materials."
"Then Secretary Zhang is really super capable." Lu Xu smiled politely at Secretary Zhang, and in his heart he also recognized her efficiency.
Even though there are so many beautiful monster artists in the company, Secretary Zhang blushed when she suddenly saw Lu Xu's smiling face. After coming out of the boss's office, she immediately took out her mobile phone and sent a message in the company's employee group -
[Secretary Zhang: The boss's newly signed artist is super good-looking, and most importantly, he seems to be a real person! ]
[Front desk clerk Xiao Ai: Really, right, I wanted to say it just now. I also think this newcomer is super handsome! 】
【Old Shi from the cleaning department: Oh my god, humans? There are actually humans in our company?! 】
...
A bunch of submerged monsters were blown out.
You know, their company has been established for so many years, and everyone from the boss to the employees are monsters. No wonder everyone is so shocked when a human suddenly appears.
Maybe this newcomer is the only human in their company!
**
In the office, Lu Xu went through the contract carefully.
After all, it is something related to the contract. The more responsible you are for both parties, the more seriously you should take it.
The treatment given by Yaoguai is quite good. The contract period is a total of five years, and the income is divided into 40% and 60%. More importantly, Bai Ze personally serves as his agent.
"If you think there are any problems, just tell us. The company will try its best to satisfy you."
Bai Ze said very politely
. Lu Xu smiled and shook his head: "I have no doubts about the contract." As he spoke, he picked up a pen and signed his name on the side of Party B. Lu Xu is not only good-looking, but also has a good handwriting. He writes in formal regular script. The strokes seem casual, but the words he writes are full of unrestrained and vigorous momentum. There is a saying that the handwriting reflects the person, which is still very reasonable.
The signing of the contract is the end of the process. Bai Ze is efficient and immediately called the program team: "Lao Fan, it's me."
"The Birth of an Idol" is a summer program launched by East City TV Station with great effort, and the production lineup is naturally quite strong.
Executive Producer Fan Zeng is China's gold medal producer and the godfather of Chinese variety shows. He is one of the earliest producers of variety shows. In his 20 years of career, all the shows he has managed have been ratings champions.
Dongcheng TV specially invited Fan Zeng to come and take charge of this program, which shows the importance they attach to this program.
Fan Zeng and Yaoguai Entertainment have had two good collaborations before, one of which produced TV King Su Mubai and the other produced singer Yu Manman.
Because of this relationship, Fan Zeng called Bai Ze at the beginning of the program preparation, thinking of asking if their company had any suitable artists.
As a result, Bai Ze had not signed any new people for two years at that time, so naturally there was no suitable candidate.
Fan Zeng did not force it, but just arranged for him to connect with the National Economic Company and let them select trainees to come up.
With three days left before the show was recorded, the trainee list was basically sorted out.
Fan Zeng didn't expect that Bai Ze would call him at this time to recommend an artist.
"Newcomer?"
"Yeah, just signed."
Fan Zeng was a little hesitant when he heard it: "For newcomers, the practice time should not be very long."
Bai Ze glanced at the artist who just signed today, and said frankly: "Less than a year."
Lu Xu raised his eyelids and glanced at Bai Ze. He didn't expect that this new agent was good at the Spring and Autumn style of writing.
"Less than a year?" Fan Zeng sighed, thinking of declining, "The trainees selected by other companies this time have had the shortest training time of two years. There's not much hope for your artist."
Bai Ze was not upset, but insisted, "Brother Fan, how about this, I'll bring him over to show you. If you think he's suitable, you can stay. Is that okay?"
Fan Zeng wanted to say that the list was almost drawn up, and unless one was particularly outstanding, there would be no chance at all.
However, Fan Zeng couldn't refuse too directly after having worked with Bai Ze several times, so he agreed.
An artist who has practiced for less than a year must have a talent like Su Mubai or Yu Manman. But no matter whether it is Su Mubai or Yu Manman, there is no second one in the world. Even
Bai Ze has basically not signed any new people in the past two years.
Fan Zeng thought about waiting for Bai Ze to bring people over and take a look. If the conditions are OK, he will recommend them to other friends. After all, they are friends, so he will still do this favor.
Just when he was anxiously confirming the details, he turned around and found that his two assistants were holding their mobile phones and screaming.
"What are you two looking at? You're so excited. Why don't you come over and deal with it when you have so much work to do?"
The two assistants were not panicked when they heard this. They just showed him their phones: "Brother Fan, what do you think of this subway boy?"
"What subway boy?" Fan Zeng casually glanced at the screen of his phone, and his eyes lit up instantly - the boy in the video had a jade-like face and a first-class figure. The most amazing thing was his eyes, with a radiant spring light. Even if he just raised his mouth, it would make people feel distracted.
Fan Zeng has never been interested in Internet celebrities, and rarely pays attention to people on Douyin.
However, this time was different. With just one glance, Fan Zeng felt that this boy was very special, as dazzling as a star.
Imagine if such a boy appeared in his show, it would definitely be one of the hot spots!
Fan Zeng became more and more excited, and quickly said to his assistant: "Is this an Internet celebrity or an artist? You can contact him and invite him to participate in the show!"
The assistant couldn't help but sighed: "Brother Fan, we also want to contact this little brother, but he seems to be an ordinary person who was accidentally photographed by netizens. Now the whole network is looking for this subway brother, but so far there is still no result, and this person can't be found at all."
Xyin recommends the hottest videos to users every day. The assistant originally wanted to click to open and send the time.
As a result, he saw the push of "Subway Brother" all of a sudden. He watched a video for dozens of times and was reluctant to cross it out.
The original video received millions of likes, and the comment section was a standard screaming scene.
Everyone wanted to know who this handsome boy was, but no one could contact him.
"Maybe in a few days he will come out and apply for an account to post videos?" Many Internet celebrities operate in this way. Although they said so, the assistant always felt that this boy did not seem to be hyping himself.
Fan Zeng couldn't help but sigh when he heard it.
The program was about to be recorded, and it would be too late even if he found it in a few days. After finally discovering a treasure, he couldn't contact it. Fan Zeng was naturally disappointed.
At this time, the venue staff ran to report to him: "Brother Fan, Mr. Bai is here."
