Entertainment News: You gain half of your ex-girlfriend's abilities after breaking up!

Why?

Xiao Di was still somewhat puzzled, and frowned.

"I think this company is alright..."

Looking at Xiao Di, who seemed a little confused, Ming Bei patiently explained,

"First of all, the contract is too long. By the time you terminate it, you'll probably be an old maid!"

Upon hearing this word, Xiao Di immediately glared and retorted.

"Who's the old maid? Don't talk nonsense!"

She's only 18 now, and even when the contract expires, she'll only be in her early thirties.

How can someone in their prime be called an old maid?

She still has a lot of charm!

Mingbei ignored her and continued speaking.

"Next, that company seemed so-so. They didn't have any truly outstanding artists, which meant they would have a hard time attracting big-name stars, so they must have some limitations..."

However, Xiao Di seemed to be aware of this as well, and countered,

"That's normal. Many of the big talent agencies you see now started out as nobodys, didn't they?"

"We're practically veterans who've been with the company through its tough times..."

"Don't be so naive!" Mingbei shook his head.

"A company can only share your hardships, not your prosperity. This truth applies to every industry!"

Having witnessed far too many such scenes in his past life, he had absolutely no interest in these empty promises that contained no substance whatsoever!

Xiao Di pondered for a moment, then spoke softly.

"Yang Mi isn't exactly a big star, I think she has a pretty good influence. I really liked her role as Xuejian in Chinese Paladin 3..."

Mingbei mocked mercilessly, "Little girl, are you here to chase after celebrities, or do you want to make a name for yourself in this industry?"

"If you're a fan, you don't need to go to their company. With a little effort and a bit of shamelessness, I can still get you their autograph, or even a personalized autograph!"

Liu Shishi and Yang Mi's relationship seems to be okay right now; it hasn't broken down yet.

Getting an autographed photo shouldn't be a big problem.

In his view, the breakdown in their relationship should have occurred after the release of "Palace" and "Scarlet Heart".

One reason is that both of them became incredibly popular, which elevated their status and position.

Furthermore, the two dramas share the same subject matter.

Although each film was shot first, the drama "Palace" premiered first, giving it a certain advantage.

People will definitely compare these two dramas, and that comparison will probably stir up the hearts of fans of both sides.

"Yang Mi is a rather unique female celebrity," Mingbei added after a moment's thought.

"In my opinion, she might be pursuing a 'black-and-red' marketing strategy, not caring much about reputation or conflicts with other established actresses. What she wants is genuine traffic!"

"If you want to pursue a career focused on popularity, that's fine, but if you want to be a quiet actress, her company isn't for you!"

Perhaps it is precisely for this reason that her relationships with many actresses who seemed to have a good relationship before eventually broke down.

The strategy of using traffic is not yet so obvious, and many tactics are still limited in their application.

The environment will be completely different once mobile internet truly takes off.

Xiao Di, a newbie, was naturally unaware of this information.

But seeing Mingbei's confident and reasonable manner, she began to waver.

"Well," Xiao Di hesitated.

"So you're not going to sign with them?"

"My advice is not to sign," Mingbei said bluntly.

"Of course, this is just a suggestion; the final decision is yours!"

Looking at Xiao Di, who was deep in thought, he shook his head.

"For these talent agencies in the industry, the so-called early signing and training is essentially casting a wide net to see if they can catch a big goldfish!"

"To say they actually have any abilities is mostly nonsense!"

"So we need to keep our eyes open and see if they really have the ability!"

Even after more than a decade, this industry only produced one hit drama.

Moreover, this hit drama is also embroiled in plagiarism allegations.

If we assess their abilities, they would basically be in the lower-middle tier of the entertainment industry.

In terms of production capabilities, they are far inferior to Tangren Media, where Liu Shishi works.

Of course, the Tang people were also declining and gradually falling behind the times.

"Besides," Mingbei was practically chasing after Xiaodi to "kill" her.

"Look at you! You just agree as soon as someone asks, without checking the situation or even negotiating. How can you be so stupid!"

Xiao Di was speechless after being rebuked, and what Ming Bei said was indeed reasonable.

However, for these freshmen who have just entered university,

If a slightly well-known company wanted to sign you, you'd probably be so excited you couldn't sleep!

Xiao Di also felt that she could discuss it with Ming Bei more, which is why the meeting was postponed.

Otherwise, she probably would have signed it long ago.

At this point, she was almost convinced by Mingbei and developed a certain resistance to Jiaxing.

And after some analysis, it was indeed found that the conditions offered by Jiaxing were rather ordinary and lacked sincerity.

"So what are your thoughts?" At this moment, Xiao Di stared at Ming Bei.

"Now that you've established yourself in the industry, you should probably sign with a company or something..."

In her opinion, Mingbei's conditions were much better than hers, and his prospects for development were also better.

After all, he's now playing an important supporting role in a big-budget production!

Their starting point was already higher than many students at the Shanghai Theatre Academy!

Perhaps he won't even need to graduate before he gains considerable fame!

Under these circumstances, signing with a company or opening your own studio is actually a pretty good option.

Furthermore, if he were to sign a contract, he would have more options and be able to take a greater initiative.

"I most likely won't sign with the company," Mingbei shrugged.

"When I was on set, people from Tangren Media approached me with pretty good terms. The contract wasn't particularly long, and it was within my acceptable range..."

Sure enough, Xiao Di looked like she suddenly realized something!

A newcomer like Mingbei is bound to attract attention!

In fact, when he first came to take the art exam, he had already received offers from many companies!

He refused them all at the time.

This situation continued even after they officially entered the entertainment industry.

What Xiao Di didn't expect was that even Tangren, whom she thought was very powerful, was rejected by Mingbei!

It seems that what others dream of is something some people don't care about at all.

The diversity of the world was profoundly reflected at this moment.

"If I don't sign with a company, then I'll just open my own studio," Xiao Di said with a grin, as if she had just thought of something.

"Since that's the case, why don't you sign me then?"
