Chapter 15: Am I a bit stupid (Seeking monthly votes)
Teacher Qi Hao's agent Lao Tian, oh no, it's former agent Lao Tian, having been in the entertainment industry for so many years, possesses very good connections in terms of celebrity behind-the-scenes teams.
Therefore, the recruitment for Teacher Qi Hao's studio isn't like ordinary companies facing public recruitment from society.
Even if recruiting some fresh graduates just out of school, it would have to wait until the main framework is built.
The first ones recruited were the backbone.
Teacher Qi Hao got up a bit late the next day—mainly because he was beaten too miserably.
He came to the living room, sleepy, and heard Lao Tian talking on the phone with someone.
"No way, didn't he already have no work since the beginning of the year? How come he hasn't found any until now?"
"Haha, I know, I know his problem, but that shouldn't mean he can't find work."
"Money hasn't been spent... damn, this reason is powerful."
"Then has he spent his money now?"
"Thanks, help me ask, tell him that Teacher Qi Hao and I are planning to set up a studio, if he's interested, coming here means being a founding member of the studio."
Lao Tian saw Teacher Qi Hao after hanging up the phone, but he didn't give Teacher Qi Hao a good look.
He still remembered what happened last night.
Especially when discussing the ownership of Ao Bai, Teacher Qi Hao's capitalist face of not giving an inch made Lao Tian feel hurt.
"Who are you talking to on the phone?" Teacher Qi Hao asked curiously.
"A PR expert."
After all, it's serious business, Lao Tian could only force himself to maintain a proper attitude; he is professional in terms of work.
Moreover, even if he determined the candidate, he would have to show it to Teacher Qi Hao to see.
Teacher Qi Hao has veto power over the studio's personnel appointments and removals; if he thinks it's inappropriate, then no matter how strong the other party's ability is, it's useless.
"A PR expert is good, does he have any problems?"
Teacher Qi Hao has a certain self-awareness of his own situation, knowing that he needs awesome people to help solve problems in terms of PR.
"You've heard of Taro, right?" Lao Tian asked back.
"Taro? An Yu? MT? Zhanqi Lightning?" Qi Hao said several characteristics in a row, all pointing to this special existence in the PR world.
The reason he is called MT is because this person especially likes to provoke others, and his ability to draw aggro is extremely stable.
And whether it's teammates or enemies, the hatred is all on him.
Just because of this reason, An Yu changed jobs three times in one year at his peak.
It's not that his work ability is incompetent, but that he fights with people in the company—sometimes with colleagues, sometimes even with leaders.
Normal workplaces should be about flattering superiors and bullying subordinates.
But he doesn't; he is rare and treats everyone equally, whether it's colleagues or leaders, he doesn't treat them differently.
For example, once a leader drew a blueprint for the team, asking everyone to accompany the company through the difficulties.
He came up with a sentence: you thought of the employees when sharing difficulties, did you ever think of sharing some with the employees when making money?
Good guy, the leader broke down on the spot.
There were also colleagues who did something wrong and cried coquettishly there; others went up to comfort them, but he immediately came up with a sentence: stop thinking about chasing stars while being paid all day long, you wouldn't have made a mistake that even an idiot wouldn't make.
Just because of your brother, we spent over a million more this time.
That female colleague immediately cried even louder.
Other colleagues accused An Yu one after another; this guy wasn't panicked at all and immediately opened a big move to taunt everyone:
"Why are you so excited? Standing up and pedaling, do you really think you have a chance? They don't look at you at all, except for accepting your treats and gifts, giving you the illusion that you have a chance, think about what you have gained yourself..."
Although this guy's words made a lot of sense, they were too realistic.
And the range of the taunt was too large, even including the married bootlicking leader; under everyone's concerted efforts, An Yu was kicked out of the company again.
The reason Teacher Qi Hao knows this person is because he also likes to roast people.
But he is a public figure and can't roast freely, so he envies An Yu for living realistically and freely.
"Standing up and pedaling? You're really dirty!"
Hitachi is called standing up and pedaling, then what is your sun-day called?
"People asked him for his English name, he said it himself, it wasn't me who gave it to him. His ability is indeed good, but the problem is that he is like a time bomb, easily capable of ruining a team."
Qi Hao doesn't think Lao Tian can handle "Zhanqi Lightning."
"Use him first and see, give him a six-month probation period, if he can't pass the probation, let him go."
"Have you recruited anyone else?" Teacher Qi Hao is most concerned about the agent.
"Not that fast, need to find, need to meet and talk, you should be careful yourself recently." Lao Tian doesn't want to see Teacher Qi Hao right now.
And he isn't even an agent anymore, why is he still following him around everywhere.
"I'm going to attend the hundred-day banquet for Zhu Yuanyuan's child, I can go by myself." Teacher Qi Hao picked up his military coat and his Lei Feng hat.
Zhu Yuanyuan is the female lead of "Tian Gou," and she has cooperated with him; she belongs to the rare female stars who have cooperated with him but haven't had a scandal with him.
Mainly because Zhu Yuanyuan is already married.
She gave birth to a daughter a while ago, and now it's exactly one hundred days.
"How much gift money are you bringing?" Lao Tian hurriedly stopped Teacher Qi Hao.
"Fifty thousand yuan." Teacher Qi Hao took out a red envelope from his pocket and weighed it; he rarely attends such wedding banquets, so he appeared extra cautious.
"Listen to me, don't give that much, just give two thousand yuan!"
Lao Tian sighed; he only felt his brain starting to ache again. He said he would let Teacher Qi Hao fend for himself, but he really couldn't leave him alone.
You are going to a banquet, not to provoke people.
Be careful not to eat the banquet, but instead be taught "how to be a person" by others, and instead become a main dish of the banquet.
"Why?" Teacher Qi Hao didn't understand.
He has set up a studio now and has many places to spend money, but it's not like he's short of these fifty thousand yuan, right?
These days, the gift money between ordinary people might only be thirty or fifty.
But celebrities are different.
As a high-income group, if you don't take out ten thousand or eight thousand, you might be called stingy.
"Then let me ask you a question, when did Zhu Yuanyuan get pregnant?"
"Probably... during filming, damn, Lao Tian what do you mean, Zhu Yuanyuan and I are clean, her husband almost followed the group for the whole duration during our filming."
Teacher Qi Hao was a bit angry.
You can despise my profession, but you cannot insult my personality.
What's more, you are one of my own, and the damage to me is doubled.
"Why do you think Xin Baiqing followed the group for the whole duration? Doesn't he have his own career? It's because you are notorious, he was worried that his wife would be hooked up by you in the crew, but he didn't expect that he followed the group and ended up with a life."
Lao Tian really wanted to pry open Teacher Qi Hao's brain to see what was inside.
If you say he's stupid, he's actually often very smart.
If you say he's smart, from these eyes of his that haven't been polluted by knowledge, you can still vaguely see the shadow of a college student.
"They are classmates, their relationship is very good." Teacher Qi Hao was unconvinced.
"I can't be bothered with you, if you are really not afraid of being beaten by a group, just take a million and go tell Xin Baiqing that this child will be entrusted to you in the future."
"Damn, you are so vicious."
Teacher Qi Hao took off his coat—wearing a coat in a heated room would be hot—and started to dismantle the red envelope to repack it.
Just as Lao Tian suggested, he only packed two thousand yuan.
"Remember not to talk nonsense, don't act too familiar with Zhu Yuanyuan, communicate more with her husband... and don't clarify anything to her husband, just treat it as ordinary chatting, aren't you quite good at that?"
The former agent exhorted a long string like an old mother.
If it weren't for the fact that there were still many calls to make today, and he had to go see the office space to be rented, he really wouldn't be at ease with Teacher Qi Hao going alone.
"I know," Teacher Qi Hao put on his clothes again, and asked while putting them on: "Lao Tian, am I a bit stupid, and a bit naive?"
"Occasionally..." Lao Tian waited until Teacher Qi Hao walked out the door and added in a low voice.
Not just a bit.
The hundred-day banquet for Zhu Yuanyuan's little princess wasn't small, but there weren't many celebrities invited.
The reason for inviting Teacher Qi Hao, besides the cooperative relationship, was that the couple Zhu Yuanyuan also owed Teacher Qi Hao a favor during the promotion of "Tian Gou."
At that time, when "Tian Gou" was about to be released, Zhu Yuanyuan's belly was already very big.
Taking the ball to participate in the promotion was prone to accidents.
So Teacher Qi Hao volunteered to take on the responsibility of independent promotion, almost twice his normal promotion volume.
With his popularity and effort, this art film "Tian Gou" didn't lose money.
Probably because of Lao Tian's reminder, throughout the banquet, Teacher Qi Hao was very low-key, and even developed a deep sense of inferiority.
I am too dirty!
However, Zhu Yuanyuan's husband Xin Baiqing didn't give Teacher Qi Hao a cold look, and even enthusiastically handed his daughter to him to hold.
"The nose and mouth are like mine, the eyes and eyebrows are like her mother's... is she pretty?"
"Pretty, too cute, she's blowing bubbles..." Teacher Qi Hao carefully held someone else's baby, and his whole heart was softened.
"If you like it, hurry up and have one. With your looks, find a prettier wife, the baby born will definitely be pretty." Xin Baiqing saw that although Teacher Qi Hao's posture for holding the child was unfamiliar, it was also decent, so he finally felt relieved.
"How is it so easy to find a suitable one." Teacher Qi Hao reluctantly returned the child to the other party.
He truly likes babies very much.
To be precise, he likes cute things very much, whether it's cats, dogs, or human cubs.
"Do you want me to help you introduce one?" Xin Baiqing asked with a smile.
"Forget it, I just set up a studio, I have no time to fall in love at all..."
Moreover, he was targeted by a system that likes to shock people.
Often have to do some inexplicable things according to the system's requirements.
Wait, these words are a bit strange.
Lao Tian's folder seems to have a similar plot...
