Duan Linran, male, 40 years old, is a well-known singer.
He rose to fame at a young age, becoming a singer after participating in an audition at 16. He was signed by a record company, released the album "Love" and became a hit, gaining countless fans and remaining popular to this day.
He has never made any public announcements within the industry, has always maintained a clean record with no scandals, and is enthusiastic about public welfare, which has earned him a large following.
After exiting Baidu Baike, Xiaoyouzi checked his photos from each stage of his life, including his TV dramas. The more she looked, the more her brows furrowed. This guy really was rotten to the core.
The online buzz surrounding him is palpable, and it's clear that nobody knows his true identity.
Little Yuzu didn't believe it and started reading through the posts on Weibo one by one.
Sure enough, at the very bottom I saw a message: The perpetrator is still around.
This message was immediately suppressed.
Xiaoyouzi was about to click to check out this user, but when she refreshed the page, the message was gone.
"How strange?" Little Yuzu murmured, refreshing the page several times in frustration, but still couldn't find it.
She searched for that person's Weibo name from memory, clicked on it, and found that the Weibo account had been deleted.
Little Pomelo: ?
They were suppressed and wiped out so quickly?
She continued browsing other news and finally found a message on a public WeChat account: Royal Entertainment was preparing to sign Duan Linran.
Not many people read this message because many marketing accounts spread it indiscriminately.
After thinking for a moment, Xiaoyouzi immediately called Monica.
The phone was answered shortly after it rang: "Hello, Little Yuzu?"
"Sister Mo, is the company planning to sign Duan Linran?" Xiao Youzi's tone was quite impolite, addressing him by his name directly, and one could even detect a hint of anger.
As a high-ranking executive in the company, Monica naturally knew the inside story: "No one knows about this except for the parties involved. How did Xiaoyou find out?"
"I sent it to you." Little Yuzu sent the link to the inside scoop to Monica.
As Monica read, she said, "This public account only posts messages for money. If it wasn't arranged by us, then it must have been arranged by Duan Linran."
The more Monica spoke, the gloomier her face became.
It's disgusting that they deliberately revealed the news of her giving birth during contract negotiations to increase their popularity and thus raise the price.
Little Yuzu clicked her tongue: "Directed and acted by herself."
Master Qi didn't have much to teach her before, so he just showed her some business war shows. She learned some tricks by watching TV and reading books at the same time.
Xiao Youzi, who doesn't understand the specific methods of price negotiation and manipulation in the business arena but has studied some, immediately realized: "Isn't it becoming more popular now, so the price will be even higher?"
"Of course it will. He's trending on social media today, so the price will go up soon."
Monica frowned slightly: "He's quite famous, and signing him would definitely bring a lot of revenue to Royal Entertainment. Even if the price goes up a bit online, it's fine as long as it doesn't exceed our expectations."
"Little Yuzu, is there something wrong with him?"
She was also involved in decision-making behind the scenes at Royal Entertainment, and everyone was able to make arrangements.
Generally speaking, if Xiaoyouzi doesn't ask, they won't report it in a timely manner.
But now that Xiaoyouzi is asking about this person, it means that this person might have a problem.
“This is a big problem.” Little Yuzu frowned, her face full of disgust.
Monica said, "In terms of value, he uses this period of popularity to raise his own value, and then takes good resources from us, which in turn benefits his huge fan base. We are the ones who benefit, and we are the ones who benefit."
"Ha!" Little Yuzu sneered, "Raising prices? How much value can someone like that bring us?"
“It’s immeasurable.” Monica patiently explained to Xiaoyouzi from a third-party perspective: “If he just sings, he can earn tens of millions from a single concert with the sponsor’s investment.”
"He will take half of these tens of millions because his contract is different from that of other artists."
Xiaoyouzi did know about the tiered contracts, and she frowned as she asked, "Are all the trainee contracts in our company bad?"
According to some information she knew, many entertainment companies would gather a bunch of trainees, select a few in the end, and treat the rest very poorly or let them terminate their contracts voluntarily.
This is practically an unfair contract term.
Monica quickly explained, "Other companies do it this way, but we don't."
"The people we bring here sign C-level contracts. The ratio isn't the worst in the industry; in fact, we have the best treatment for trainees."
Royal Entertainment is dedicated to developing top-tier, highly capable stars, and their prices increase with the value they create. After all, Royal Entertainment has plenty of money; there's no need to cheat people and damage our reputation just to make more money.
Little Yuzu pondered for a while and then said, "That imposing contract?"
"He has an S-level contract now, his value speaks for itself, and his face is his most valuable asset."
Monica talked to Xiaoyouzi so much because she wanted to know why Xiaoyouzi asked her.
If possible, this person should not be let go easily.
Xiaoyouzi's tone suddenly turned cold: "Value doesn't matter, I don't agree to sign him."
Even if it was valuable, she refused without hesitation.
Monica was slightly taken aback, not understanding why Xiaoyouzi was so determined.
She didn't immediately refute him, but instead thought about it seriously before asking, "Little Yuzu, I'd like to ask what your reason for refusing is? This person is entirely beneficial to our Royal Entertainment."
Although she didn't particularly like Duan Linran, many people around her did, and her best friends were all fans of Duan Linran.
