My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1209 Obtaining Two

Han Hui glanced at Xu Qingya.

Before coming over tonight, Wang Yu specifically told her to keep an eye on Xu Qingya, so that she wouldn't act like she'd never seen a handsome guy before and do anything that would make her, her manager, lose face.

I never expected that Xu Qingya would be so infatuated with Xiao Yan.

However, after thinking about it for a moment, Han Hui wasn't too surprised. No matter how flat-chested Xu Qingya was, she was still a woman. And what normal woman wouldn't want a man?

Especially since Xu Qingya is already twenty-seven or twenty-eight, if she doesn't want to... there will be a problem. As for Xiao Yan, he has strong features and, more importantly, has always had a good reputation in the entertainment industry.

When an artist becomes wildly popular despite their manager's lack of confidence and even their contract being sold to several different companies, it's truly something that few people can achieve.

Ultimately, it's a matter of fate. Luck can be suppressed, but destiny is often beyond human control. Xiao Yan is a typical example of this.

"Is there really no other way!?"

Xu Qingya asked another question, somewhat unwilling to give up.

Yes, there are.

Han Hui thought for a moment and replied, "But that's not very realistic."

No matter how popular Xiao Yan is now, he's still just a top-tier celebrity, and top-tier celebrities are still within the realm of artists. This means that he has value, and once he has value, as long as the asking price is higher than that value, it means that nothing is impossible.

The key lies in the price.

If she remembered correctly, Xiao Yan still had two years left on his contract. With his current earning power, even if four or five companies shared his earnings, he could still make a considerable amount in two years.

In this situation... thinking of Long Dan, that woman, and recalling this woman, Han Hui couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

As fellow agents, this woman is ruthless and resourceful. As for something like splitting an artist's contract, not even Wang Yu, the most shrewd of the three, could have imagined it, let alone her.

Singing, TV series, movies.

A contract.

She actually thought of selling them separately. No wonder this woman became one of the top agents in the entertainment industry; her idea was truly groundbreaking.

However, it was only because she was the inventor that she was able to eat so much greasy food thanks to Xiao Yan. But that won't work now. Everyone knows that agents would do such things, and not only would entertainment companies disagree, but even the artists themselves would be wary.

Han Hui probably did this because Long Dan really disliked Xiao Yan. As a top agent in the entertainment industry, she has other artists under her management, but she has never used such tactics.

It was probably because Xiao Yan suddenly became popular before she had any expectations that she felt she was being controlled, which made this extremely controlling woman become hysterical.

"How is it unrealistic!?"

Xu Qingya pressed for an answer.

"First of all, Xiao Yan's current value is what it is. If you want to help him terminate his contract early, you have to offer something that exceeds his value to get the companies to let him go. And what is his value again?!"

Han Hui thought for a moment and said, "It seems that he generated 310 million in revenue the year before last. If we calculate based on 300 million, his contract still has two years left, which is 600 million. If we want to help him terminate the contract early, we would have to come up with something worth more than 600 million. And if the original owner is not sure about selling, to buy an item, you would need to pay at least a 20% premium, which would be more than 700 million."

"..."

Xu Qingya was stunned.

Immediately, her eyes glazed over, and she murmured the number "seven hundred million".

"Now you know how difficult it is!"

Han Hui smiled and said. Given Zhang You's current status in the entertainment industry, if he were to step in, he could help Xiao Yan terminate his contract early. As long as he writes a decent script and gets a few companies to sign a guaranteed minimum agreement, it wouldn't be too difficult.

However, this caused Zhang You a great loss. Xu Qingya was only his second brother, not his biological sister. But if Zhang You could develop Youyi into a large enterprise, Han Hui thought that he could sign Xiao Yan. Although it seemed like a huge loss for the time being, with Xiao Yan's money-making ability, he could recover his losses in a few years.

However... it doesn't seem very reliable either.

Flowers are not a hundred days of red.

Xiao Yan has been famous for several years now, can he really stay popular forever? You know, there are too many uncontrollable factors in the entertainment industry. Taking a risk of one or two hundred million is not a big deal, but seven or eight hundred million is really too much.

"Qingya, didn't you get Xiao Yan's number?"

At this time.

Jiang Yiren smiled and said, "His contract still has two years left! When you chat with him, you can ask if he's interested in signing with Youyi Studio after it expires. If so, the studio can split the profits with him 30/70."

"hehe"

Han Hui couldn't help but laugh.

My beloved is really getting more and more ambitious these days. Let alone a 30/70 split, with Xiao Yan's current popularity, even a 20/80 split would have entertainment companies vying to sign him.

The main reason is that they are already very popular, so signing them doesn't require spending resources to get them into the money-making stage.

"You pay my penalty for breach of contract, and I'll sign it for you. I don't want a 30/70 split; a 50/50 split will do."

Xu Qingya replied.

"Forget about it."

Jiang Yiren smiled and shook her head, saying, "If I were to pay your breach of contract fee, Sister Wang would fight me to the death."

If Xu Qingya is having a bad time at the company, given her current relationship with her family, Jiang Yiren wouldn't mind helping her make up for it.

But they're doing just fine at their current company.

Moreover, Wang Yu... although he's a bit shameless, he treats Xu Qingya really well, even though he brings Xiao Lanlan, whom he adopted from the orphanage, to eat and drink what Xu Qingya provides. Putting aside this little flaw, he's genuinely good to Xu Qingya.

Whenever the company has any good resources, they will do their best to help her obtain them. She heard from Han Hui that Wang Yu had argued with senior executives several times because of problems with the allocation of resources among the company's senior management, and even physically assaulted a male executive who was hospitalized.

She's a fierce woman, but perhaps because of Wang Yu's personality, plus she only has Xu Qingya under her wing and doesn't ask for many resources, the company's higher-ups usually give in to her as long as she doesn't go too far.

Perhaps it was because being beaten up by a woman and ending up in the hospital would be bad for her reputation that she did this. Anyway, as long as the goal was achieved, that was all that mattered. It was because of this that Xu Qingya was able to buy a villa in her neighborhood even with the commission from her management company and agent.

Outside the car window, the heavy snow was still falling. It had only been falling for a short time, so it hadn't affected normal travel. But it wouldn't be possible tomorrow. Fortunately, she didn't have any work for the time being after this New Year's Eve concert.

The car was first parked in front of Xu Qingya's house.

Then they stopped at Jiang Yiren's house. Just as Jiang Yiren was about to get out of the car, Han Hui suddenly called out to her, saying, "You can ask your husband. Xiao Yan can sing and act. Since your husband has resources in this area, why not communicate with Xiao Yan first? Anyway, the movies he writes will always need actors. Instead of always promoting the company's contracted actors, why not sign Xiao Yan and let him act in them?"

"gone"

Jiang Yiren waved to her agent.

Then he opened the gate to the courtyard and went inside.
