Chapter 46



“Miss Yun, I believe I don’t need to repeat my intentions of coming here. We are very sincere. If you are interested in our company, you could give your opinions of the conditions we have proposed.”

He Shen was not a person who liked to beat around the bush. After meeting Yun Xiangxiang, even before any dishes were served, he was very straightforward, “If we can reach an agreement, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future.”

“General Manager He, I admired your company for a long time.”

Yun Xiangxiang was also very straightforward, “As far as I know, your company’s agents are divided into five tiers. So, you should also categorise your actors into five tiers as well, and you want me to sign an S-tier contract.”

Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s agents were divided into ordinary agents, silver-tier agents, gold-tier agents, platinum-tier agents and also ace-tier agents. No one had been able to be contracted to that final tier yet.

Only at platinum-tier were they eligible to own company shares. Huan Yu Century Entertainment had only two.

Until now, no one knew the treatment for the ace-tier agents.

For the corresponding actors, it was B-tier, A-tier, S-tier, SS-tier, and SSS-tier. Huan Yu Century Entertainment didn’t have a top actor yet. The two pillars, female actor Li Man and male actor Xue Yu were both SS-tier.

The treatment of the top actors was also unknown to everyone. However, Li Man and Xue Yu both held shares of Huan Yu Century Entertainment. Even if it was just a few percent, it was still of incredible value.

Huan Yu Century Entertainment another advantage, which was that when the actor’s value exceeded the signed treatment during the contract period, the contract would automatically be upgraded. Of course, the conditions of the contract upgrade was that the contracted period would start from zero again.

For example, after signing a fifteen year B-tier contract, if that actor’s popularity rapidly increased in three to five years, then the contract would be upgraded. If the period was still fifteen years, then the previous three to five years were not counted in.

Yun Xiangxiang signed an A-tier contract when she joined the company in her past life. Later, her value increased, and she was very clever and did not choose to improve her treatment.

She knew that as long as she was valuable and she was still in the company, the company wouldn’t keep her idle intentionally. So although she held an A-tier contract, she enjoyed S-level treatment.

“Miss Yun is not satisfied with the treatment.” He Shen frowned.

This was already the highest treatment. In fact, there were only three female actors that have received this treatment in their company. One of them, which was Lu Huanong, had been left aside intentionally.

“No, I’m satisfied.” Yun Xiangxiang didn’t want to be a sinner the moment she entered the company. Li Man’s status was not one that she could shake.

To be a decent human, one must recognize their own position. “I can accept everything else, but ten years is too long. It is not that I am insincere. I can accept the number of ten years, but I have a condition.”

“Please state it.”

“I heard from Teacher Han that the company is very generous to valuable actors. As long as their value increases, their contract would be upgraded.”

Yun Xiangxiang made her thoughts clear, “I can accept a ten-year contract. Once my value increases, if I upgrade the contract, your company must promise that my contract period will not start from scratch.”

This was Yun Xiangxiang’s request. Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s five-level contracts were all fifteen year, twelve years, ten years, and Li Man’s was eight years.

She didn’t want to sign with Huan Yu Century Entertainment for four or five years and then sign up for another 10 or 8 years. She needed to keep making Huan Yu Century Entertainment give way so that she could take absolute control of her life.

He Shen couldn’t help but size up this 17-year-old girl deeply. He believed that with Han Jing’s character, however much she liked Yun Xiangxiang, she wouldn’t have reminded Yun Xiangxiang of this in the context of commercial negotiations. That could only mean that this little girl saw through it herself.

Many actors were delighted to see that Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s contract would automatically upgrade the contract as their value increased. They felt that they saw an opportunity to succeed, which made them climb upwards diligently.

But all of them would overlook the fact that the higher they climbed, the further they would sink into Huan Yu Century Entertainment’s clutches.

How long does it take for an actor to increase in value?

Those who were especially lucky to be popular in one shot were few. Even if they had that luck, they had to stabilize themselves in order for the company to upgrade their treatment.

Even so, it was three to five years. After signing a fifteen year contract, when they got upgraded after three to five years, ten years became twelve.

It would take another five or six years before they were qualified for an upgrade. Seven or eight years became another ten years.

This seemingly favorable contract was actually bait. It made the fish keep moving forward while also ensuring that they could not escape the fish pond.

All the favorable treatments were a smokescreen, as this was the crux of the whole scheme.

He Shen did not expect Yun Xiangxiang, a young girl who didn’t even have a lawyer, to see through it at first glance. Furthermore, she negotiated with him leisurely .

This reminded him that she was not any ordinary girl. She was the top student which was a national champion, who got admitted into Qingdao University.

Obviously Yun Xiangxiang touched He Shen’s bottom line. He hesitated.

“You can relax, General Manager He. I am a lazy person. I can promise you that as long as I am an actor for a day, I will not set up a studio by myself. After all, its better to take advantage under the big tree.” Yun Xiangxiang had to give some concession.

Since she didn’t have the intention to go solo, as long as Huan Yu Century Entertainment put out satisfactory conditions she would naturally not leave Huan Yu Century Entertainment.

It was at this time, Han Jing’s phone rang. She pressed the answer button and was about to go outside. However, she paused and took a glance at He Shen before passing the phone to Yun Xiangxiang, “Old Man Min. ”

He Shen’s facial expression changed.

Yun Xiangxiang was also surprised that Old Man Min even called her at this time.

She knew that Chen Yinghui’s deceased wife was from the Hong Kong Min Family. Although not the biological daughter of Old Man Min, she was still a youngster who grew up under his nose. He always had some affection for her.

So The Era of Stars looked for Old Man Min to be their persuader?

“Hello, Mr. Min.” Yun Xiangxiang greeted politely.

“Ha ha ha ha ...” Laughter came from the other end of the phone. “No one has ever called me that.”

Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t answer to this. After all, she was not familiar with Old Man Min and didn’t want to claim to have a relationship with him.

“Little girl, we have a family banquet tonight. If it’s convenient for you, honor an old man like me and come to my house for a meal?” Old Man Min didn’t embarrass the little girl as well, speaking softly.

This was somebody who would make Hong Kong tremble with a stomp of his foot. Who was Yun Xiangxiang? Since he called personally, what reason did she have to reject him?

“As one of the younger generation, I dare not disrespect the honor and care you showed me.” Yun Xiangxiang accepted tactfully.

Old Man Min talked to Yun Xiangxiang a bit more with some small talk, then hung up.

“I agree to Miss Yun’s request.” He Shen stated once Yun Xiangxiang returned the phone back to Han Jing.

“May we have a happy cooperation.” Yun Xiangxiang took the lead in raising her wine glass to pay respects to He Shen.

The contract had to be modified according to Yun Xiangxiang’s conditions. The two parties could only reach an agreement verbally. It was still suitable to have a meal as host and guest.
