Chapter 104 Monopolizing the South Korean Entertainment Industry

As soon as Lu Qing came out of Zhengxinzhai, Li Hairen, who was sitting in the co-pilot, couldn't help but said, "Daojun, mom knows you like mathematics, but you must never be a mathematician, you understand?"

"Mom, don't worry, I won't."

Lu Qing smiled and said, "If I wanted to be a mathematician, I wouldn't give my father the money to open a brokerage company."

"That's fine, that's fine."

With Lu Qing's assurance, Li Hairen patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Runji, who was driving, also laughed: "Dao Jun, although it's only been a month, Dad has already recruited several directors and screenwriters, and the company is barely on the right track."

"Oh?"

Seeing Chen Runji's actions so quickly, Lu Qing asked curiously, "Who did Dad recruit?"

"Cough cough..."

Hearing this question, Chen Runji blushed slightly, and said, "They are all young people, Dao Jun may not have heard of them."

Li Hairen was obviously a little dissatisfied, and deliberately dismantled the stage: "You father is looking for fresh graduates, such as Jiang Digui, Kang Youshuo, Guo Zairong... just some brats."

"You can't say that, the talents of those few people are still good, and they may be able to be alone in the future..."

Chen Runji defended weakly without confidence.

"Stand alone?"

Li Hairen sneered: "Just don't lose money to you!"

When the two were arguing, upon hearing these three names, Lu Qing's eyes widened slightly.

Jiang Digui, Kang Youshuo, Guo Zairong?

If these three people were placed in later generations, they would all be famous super directors in South Korea.

Kang Woo-seok's "Silmido Island" is the first major director in South Korea with more than [-] million viewers;
Kang Je-gyu's "Flying Taegeuk Flag" broke the box office record of "Silmido";

As for Guo Zairong, "My Sassy Girlfriend" is a hit in Asia...

Now these three future famous directors are all taken under by Chen Runji?
"Mom, our agency has just started after all, it is difficult to recruit famous artists, and there is nothing wrong with recruiting newcomers who are not yet famous."

Lu Qing spoke for Chen Runji.

"Look, look, your son said the same thing, right?"

With Lu Qing's affirmation, Chen Runji quickly said: "Let me just say, my son understands me. The initial stage of any company is the most difficult."

Li Hairen rolled his eyes: "That can't be all newcomers, you have to recruit two cards, right?"

"I would like to invite well-known artists, but isn't it that several people have been invited and ignored us?"

Chen Runji said helplessly.

Hearing this, Li Hairen didn't know what to say.

Although Chen Runji had been accepted by Chen Yangzhe and joined the Chen family, to the outside world, he was still an illegitimate child after all.

Moreover, even if he is Chen Yangzhe's son, not everyone will choose to join the chaebol's brokerage company, and some people even choose not to join out of hostility to the chaebol.

Thinking of this, the car fell into silence for a moment.

After a while,
Chen Hengjun suddenly said: "Mom, aren't you the biggest card?"

Everyone was startled.

Immediately, Chen Runji laughed loudly: "Hahaha, that's right, my wife, you are the first love of the nation, and you are the company's biggest card. I don't need to spend money to hire others, they are not as good as you!"

"You're the only one with a good mouth!"

Li Hairen gave Chen Runji a supercilious look with a smile, obviously very pleased with it.

Soon, the family talked and laughed and returned home.

Chen Runji and Li Hairen came to Lu Qing's room to discuss the brokerage company.

"Daojun, we were joking just now... Actually, what your mother said makes sense."

Chen Runji pondered and said: "In the final analysis, the brokerage company is still competing for the popularity of artists. Only relying on those few newcomers, our company will not be able to develop in a few years... or even ten years."

"Dad, don't worry."

Lu Qing shook his head and said: "Didn't we analyze it before? The current domestic entertainment market is almost in a barren era, and there is not enough room for development at all. The so-called big-name stars are just famous, but have no box office appeal... Instead of asking When these uncles come in, I think it’s better to continue to train new people.”

"However, the speed of development is too slow."

Chen Runji said in distress: "Almost all the investment in the early stage, and there is no money at all."

"There is no way to do this, the time limit is here."

Lu Qing spread his hands.

Seeing that Chen Runji was still a little uncomfortable, Lu Qing thought for a while, and said, "Why not, Dad, you can learn from the American CAA agency and come up with a packaged sales strategy, which may increase some income."

"Package and bundle sale?"

Chen Runji asked curiously, "What kind of strategy is that?"

"It's a mandatory buy one get one free..."

Lu Qing explained the plan of CAA brokerage company.

To put it simply, the method of CAA is that the company signs as many artists as possible, and there is no limit to the types, from singers to actors, from screenwriters to directors, and even artists such as makeup artists, stylists, photographers, and recordings. All occupations are signed.

And when looking for jobs for these artists, they can package and sell them directly. For example, if someone wants to hire their own director to make a drama, then they have to use their own photography, their own sound engineer, their own actors...

In a word, we can provide you with the most thoughtful one-stop service, but the premise is that you have to use our people.

Due to this nanny-level strategy, CAA has become a well-known large-scale brokerage company in the United States, and many stars are very inclined to join it, because this kind of bundled sales can greatly increase the bargaining power of the brokerage company, thereby driving up their own remuneration .

In fact, many Hollywood studios are currently complaining that the star's salary is getting higher and higher-the driving force behind this is CAA.

And it is precisely because of this mandatory bundling of sales that CAA founder Michael Ovitz has been rated as the most powerful person in Hollywood for many years in a row.

After listening to Lu Qing's explanation, Chen Runji was greatly shocked. He did not expect that the brokerage company could still operate like this.

"If this model develops smoothly, with the size of the domestic entertainment industry, it won't be difficult for us to monopolize half of the entertainment industry, right?"

Chen Runji murmured absentmindedly.

At present, South Korea's entertainment market is almost like a pool of stagnant water. The most famous movie stars are not domestic actors, but Cheng Long, Zhou Runfa, Wang Zuxian from Hong Kong Island...

It can be said that if Chen Runji can develop and grow with the CAA packaging model at this time, he will definitely become the leading large-scale entertainment company in the industry in the future.

"Is it only half?"

Lu Qing chuckled.

Taking the system as the label of "good at discovering talents" evaluated by Chen Runji, coupled with his own understanding of outstanding artists in the South Korean entertainment industry, and the BUG blessings brought to him by the system...

Lu Qing set himself a small goal——

Eighty percent.
