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

"Yes, it expires this October, and I probably won't renew it..."

Once artists reach a certain level and have established a solid fanbase, most will choose to start their own companies.

Or, to put it simply, set up a studio or something.

In this way, the profits don't need to be split; they all go into your own pocket.

Of course, one very important point is...

Remember to pay your taxes.

Otherwise, you'll only end up hurting yourself sooner or later.

Upon hearing this, Mingbei grinned.

"Why don't you come work for my company?"

Ok?

Baoqiang paused in his eating, then looked up in surprise.

"To your company?"

Mingbei owns his own company, and he is the main producer of Detective Chinatown.

But this company is too new, it was only established not long ago, and it has no influence in the industry at all.

If we take into account the forces behind them, then that's a different story.

Upon hearing this, Chen Sicheng, who was standing to the side, actually wanted to agree on Bao Qiang's behalf.

Because he knew that by following such powerful capital, his connections would be incredibly strong in the future, and few people would dare to provoke or offend him!

To put it bluntly, no matter how well you do in the entertainment industry, you're nothing compared to big corporations.

In his view, Mingbei was just there to have fun and relax in the entertainment industry.

But during this period, following such a person will definitely bring more benefits than working alone!

Chen Sicheng even considered volunteering himself, but he also understood that going out of his way to ask for a place to stay, or asking someone else for a job, would be counterproductive.

The status and treatment of these two individuals will be significantly different.

"Although my company is still small," Mingbei explained.

"But it will gradually grow and expand in the future!"

"and,"

He paused, then continued,

"Our cooperation model can involve only providing a brokerage contract, meaning we'll recommend you when there's work available. You'll still handle all other business matters yourself, and we won't take a cut..."

This type of collaboration is not uncommon; it involves helping established artists manage their careers.

Both parties agreed to share profits based on certain itinerary items within a specific timeframe, and would not participate in all business transactions.

If Baoqiang joins, he will only receive a share of the profits based on the work opportunities provided by Mingbei Company, such as participating in a certain project.

As for other endorsements, Baoqiang will handle them himself; Mingbei won't get involved.

In other words, reaching these kinds of collaborations is simply about wanting more opportunities and more exposure.

In essence, artists are still quite free; the company doesn't exert much control over them.

Of course, this is on the premise that the company can actually provide more opportunities; otherwise, there is not much need to cooperate.

"I need to discuss this with someone..."

Bao Qiang pondered for a moment, but did not agree immediately.

"Besides, the contract expires in October, there's still time before that!"

Mingbei wasn't in a hurry and nodded.

"I was just mentioning it casually, Brother Bao, you don't need to overthink it. Anyway, Detective Chinatown will continue filming, and there should be a 2 and 3, and a 4 isn't out of the question!"

"The lead actors will definitely not be changed!"

He was just having a chat to see what the other person thought; there was no coercion involved.

Bao Qiang nodded and smiled.

"Oh, okay, I understand!"

If someone else said this to him, he might think it was a subtle reminder that if he didn't sign the next installment, he would be replaced as the male lead.

But in Baoqiang's view, Mingbei was sincere, because he didn't need to do that at all.

Although she has some fame, she hasn't yet reached the top tier, and her commercial value isn't very high.

Otherwise, the contract is about to expire this year, and Huayi has not mentioned any good retention policies.

For Huayi, which is still a large and established company, I am not particularly outstanding.

The reason for wanting to go solo is, of course, because they want to keep all the money in their own hands and not have to share it with others.

Mingbei's idea is also a form of cooperation, somewhere between joining a company and opening his own studio.

Baoqiang needs to think things through and see what kind of choice would be more suitable for him after the contract expires.

After lunch, we rested for a while until the hottest part of the day was over before filming resumed.

Actually, filming is a very boring and tedious thing because it often requires repetition.

Repetition gets boring.

Working in such a hot environment is extremely difficult for both actors and behind-the-scenes staff.

Mingbei tries its best to satisfy everyone's material needs so that they don't have to work too hard during their leisure time.

At the same time, we are working hard to speed up the filming process and reduce the number of takes as much as possible.

Fortunately, everyone was in good spirits after a few days of filming, and the initial shooting went smoothly.

At this moment, Liu Xinyou finally arrived.

Meanwhile, Zuer, Hu Xianxu, and Chen Chichi also successfully joined the crew.

In the early stages, when they weren't around, they filmed scenes featuring other people.

At this moment, the entire crew is finally together, and the subsequent progress will inevitably speed up!

"Come on, get ready to film!"

Mingbei clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention and began filming the first scene after everyone had arrived.

"Sister Xinyou, you need to be gentler and more tactful in this scene, because your room will be full of police officers, suspects, and the real murderer!"

He spoke to Liu Xinyou, who had changed her clothes and looked somewhat flamboyant.

"We don't aim for a one-shot take, but the overall performance rhythm needs to have continuity..."

"Don't worry," Liu Xinyou nodded slowly.

"I'm an actor, you don't need to give me so many instructions!"

Even though she wasn't formally trained, she has acted in many roles, so her acting skills aren't bad.

Although the role she plays this time is vastly different from her role in "Scarlet Heart," she's portrayed as a shrewish, street-smart woman.

But she felt she could still do the job very well.

Moreover, her personality is straightforward; she's not the delicate beauty type, which contrasts somewhat with her appearance.

"OK!"

Mingbei nodded and gave some instructions to the other actors who were involved.

The filming of this rather important and somewhat comical scene began. In the corner, Zuer and Xiaodi sat together, with the even younger Hu Xianxu next to them.

Two of the three of them have no roles, and one of them is Mingbei's assistant.

Most of the time, I was observing how others acted.

Xiao Di feels that she has recently gained a new understanding of acting, an understanding that cannot be grasped in the classroom.

You have to be there in person to see how the actors perform and how the crew operates in order to open a completely new door to it.

"Sister Xiaodi," Zuer whispered, noticing that filming hadn't officially started yet.

"You're so beautiful, why didn't you get a role?"

"Forehead!"

Upon hearing this question, Xiao Di was at a loss for words.

Saying that you don't have much experience and are still very young?

But in front of them were two even younger child stars.

Does he say he has a bad relationship with Mingbei?

This obviously doesn't make sense.

"Perhaps I still need more experience and time to mature."

Although that's what she said, Xiao Di actually felt a little disappointed.

So many people have gotten acting roles, and I can only watch enviously.

Most people would feel a pang of sadness.
