As the live broadcast ended, many staff around him breathed a sigh of relief.
After Wang Hao's two cameramen turned off the button, they subconsciously raised their heads and wiped their sweat-soaked foreheads. Deep fatigue could clearly be seen on their faces.
The several bodyguards who had been waiting nearby also breathed a sigh of relief. After counting all the gold bars, they hurriedly left the scene.
These are real things, and it would be too unsafe to leave them here at night, so they have to be returned to the vault overnight.
At this moment, Yan Zhen announced the arrangements for tonight: "Everyone, I will give you one hour to take off your makeup. We will meet at the restaurant on time at nine o'clock. Let's cook hot pot tonight!"
"Hey! Long live Director Yan!"
Suddenly, cheers rang out in the villa, and dozens of staff standing outside suddenly became excited and began to work one after another.
After a tiring day, nothing is more satisfying than a hot pot meal.
If there is another better choice, it must be two hot pot meals!
At this time, Wang Hao's assistant Guo Xiaoxue came over and said, "Brother Hao, let's go and take off our makeup first."
"Okay," Wang Hao nodded and followed Guo Xiaoxue back to the room.
However, what he didn't notice was that as he walked, there was a gaze following his back closely, and did not move back until he left the door.
…
A few minutes later, Huang Lei and Yan Qin were sitting opposite each other in the temporary director's office in the back room of the villa.
Looking at Huang Lei who followed him back to the office, Yan Qin couldn't help but asked suspiciously: "Lei Zi? What's the matter?"
Huang Lei frowned and said, "I have a few questions to ask you about today's recording."
While sorting the documents on the table, he nodded and said, "Okay, you can ask, I will tell you everything I know."
The two have been friends for many years, so they are quite familiar with both parties.
Yan Qin knew very well that Huang Lei was the kind of person who would get to the bottom of something suspicious, so it was no surprise that he followed him back.
"When I boarded the cruise ship, I saw Wang Hao led by the staff to the bow deck. Did he get some hidden mission or some kind of hint about the key?"
This is what Huang Lei is most curious about. He suspects that it was because Wang Hao went to the deck that he was able to take all three keys for himself.
However... Yan Qi slowly shook his head.
"No, he was just entrusted by me to record a few-minute commercial for the sponsor of this show."
Hearing this, Huang Lei suddenly said in disbelief: "So, he got the key by his own ability?"
"That's right." Yan Zhen nodded and replied firmly.
After a moment of silence, Huang Lei couldn't help but feel deep shock in his eyes.
It had to be said that Wang Hao once again made him feel sincerely shocked. This boy's insight was really boundless.
Huang Lei then asked: "So, he actually returned to the villa area faster than us, right?"
Yan Qin continued to nod: "That's right, yes, I came back more than half an hour ahead of you in that Toyota car."
"Hey, I'm just saying that this kid must have gotten the tire!"
Huang Lei couldn't help but smile. Suddenly, Wang Hao shouted in the underground garage to "shoot" the tire thief.
Are you clamoring to shoot yourself?
Yan Qin also smiled and added: "You are quite thick-skinned! Anyway, you just refuse to admit it!"
"Hahahahahaha!"
Speaking of this, the two looked at each other and couldn't help laughing at the same time.
Although he had gotten the answer he wanted, Huang Lei did not leave, but continued to occupy Yan Qin's seat.
Yan Qin asked curiously: "Why are you still here? Aren't you going to remove your makeup?"
"It won't be too late to go later," Huang Lei waved his hand and continued: "Actually, I have another very important thing to do with you."
"Um?"
Yan tilted his head, a trace of doubt appearing in his eyes.
"I want to know Wang Hao's personal information. If possible, I want him to sign a contract with my Fenghuo Stone Culture Media Co., Ltd."
"Hey?"
Listening to Huang Lei's question, Yan Zhen raised his eyebrows and said, "How do you know that I have investigated Wang Hao's personal information?"
"I'm not stupid," Huang Lei shrugged and rolled his eyes and said, "I bet that after the first episode of the show was broadcast, your company has already investigated Wang Hao, even this
I’m afraid everyone has already started taking action, right?”
"Haha, he is indeed a great fortune teller. If this little guy Wang Hao hadn't played so many tricks, he would definitely not be your opponent."
Yan smiled, not wanting to hide anything.
Wang Hao's information is not top secret. Even if he doesn't tell it, Huang Lei only needs to send someone to do a little investigation.
Then he might as well be a favor, since this information was checked by the company, not by him personally.
"The company that Wang Hao signed with is Huihuang Film and Television Media Co., Ltd., and the general manager is Zhou Xiaoyu. She is the girl who promoted Zhu Shihua to the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor."
"According to our investigation, we learned that he signed a C-level contract, the lowest level, and because this kid was directly recruited from China Communication University, he only signed a three-year contract."
Brilliant Film and Television Media...
Hearing this name, Huang Lei couldn't help but frown.
Although this company is not as good as the Big Four, it can still be regarded as a large first-tier media company in the industry. There are many first-tier artists in it, and there are even a few who are above the first-tier.
In comparison, Feng Huo Shi Media Co., Ltd., which he founded personally, seems to be somewhat lacking, after all, there are only a few first-line artists in it.
However, there is room for fuss over this C-level contract!
Due to the radio and television's personal rectification, artist contracts in the entertainment industry have now formed a solidified model.
There are five types of artist contracts, namely S-level, A-level, B-level, C-level and D-level.
The S-level contract is unique to top-tier artists.
A-level contracts are exclusive to first-tier artists.
The remaining B-levels are shared by second-tier and third-tier artists, but the internal terms have changed slightly. After all, the distinction between second-tier and third-tier artists in the entertainment industry is somewhat blurred.
As for the C level, it is used by artists outside the third tier, while the final D level is currently used by trainees in large companies.
According to common sense, the contract period of a C-level contract should be five years, which is recognized throughout the entertainment industry.
After all, as a third-tier artist, it’s impossible for the company to spend a lot of resources cultivating you for two or three years and then let you go in style, right?
The last two years of the five-year period are when the company really makes money, while the first three years are just training time.
But Huaxia University of Communication has secured a contract exemption policy for students throughout the college!
For students who graduate from Huaxia Communication University, after being admitted by major companies, the upper limit of the first-stage contract period shall not exceed three years!
This rule is very overbearing, but the major media companies have not complained at all.
Who makes the president of Huaxia Communication University the chairman of the China Film Association? What’s more, there is no one who officially graduates from this school!
Just like Wang Hao, although his performance has been tepid since he entered Huihuang Film and Television Media Company, the fundamental reason is just because he does not have an outstanding appearance.
If anyone pays special attention, they will find that his acting skills are actually very good. Every TV series he participates in has greatly demonstrated the tension that the character should have.
If it hadn't been for offending a certain leader, I'm afraid he wouldn't have ended up in this situation.
…
After pondering for a moment, Huang Lei suddenly asked: "So what conditions is your company prepared to offer? Or which contract is it prepared to give him to tempt him?"
After hearing this, Yan kept silent for a moment, and then expressed his thoughts.
"My original proposal to the company was B-level, but after recording the second episode, I decided to recommend that the company give him an A-level contract."
(⊙o⊙)What???
Huang Lei was stunned after hearing this!
Recommend level A?
"Do you think so highly of him?"
Yan Zhen nodded and said: "I see unlimited potential in him, so I am ready to give him a very sincere contract."
"Of course, this is just my personal suggestion. As for what decision the company will ultimately make, it is unknown."
In fact, Yan Qin made such a decision after careful consideration.
He is the top talent in the company's variety show sector. No matter what decision he makes or any suggestion he makes, the company's senior management will conduct rigorous discussions and research before finalizing it.
Coupled with the success of "Extreme Challenge", Yan Qin's voice among the company's top management is now greatly increased.
Therefore, his suggestions will definitely be adopted!
Yan Qin can be sure that even if the final result is not A, it will definitely not be a B.
After listening to Yan Qi's words, Huang Lei fell silent.
He suddenly found that his understanding of Wang Hao seemed to be somewhat insufficient. A-level contract was something he had never thought about.
Although after the first episode of Extreme Challenge, Wang Hao's popularity has been greatly improved, but he is still far away from the first-tier level. Now he is not worthy of the top contract of A-level!
"How long is the remaining period of the three-year contract?" Huang Lei finally asked.
Yan pursed his lips slightly and responded word by word: "When the recording of the first season of Extreme Challenge ends, Wang Hao's three-year contract period will also expire."
"Of course, from a friend's point of view, I advise you to take action as soon as possible if you have an idea, otherwise, by that time, I'm afraid the price you will have to pay will be even greater!"
Hearing this, Wang Hao's brows furrowed even more deeply.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have missed something in this second issue.
What happened to Wang Hao? How could Yan Qi have such great confidence in him?
