For a star like Lu Yanhe, traveling is quite troublesome.
Personal travel is secondary, the main thing is work matters.
This circle is all about ostentation and face.
When you go to the set with only one assistant, it is low-key and allows you to film with peace of mind. If you only bring an assistant to an event, especially a large event, then you are "shabby".
This is not what anyone said, it is the consensus of the industry.
In addition, there are safety issues.
At the airport, so many media are waiting, so many fans are waiting, just to wait for you to appear, swarming up to see you with their own eyes, and then seeing you, their emotions are out of control, excited and excited. This is quite positive.
There are also some malicious black fans or passers-by who join in the fun, deliberately making the scene chaotic. At this time, the two assistants had absolutely no control over the situation.
Overseas countries are not as safe as China.
Why are so many high-value celebrities followed by several bodyguards wherever they go, including when they go to buy a cup of coffee? There are several bodyguards on standby to protect the celebrities.
Because to prevent robbery or even kidnapping.
Kidnapping has not disappeared these days.
Lu Yanhe has been operating domestically before. Now, the route Chen Ziyan designed for him is to become a global superstar. He must go overseas to act. It is not enough to always rely on those service companies.
That’s why Lu Yanhe needs a strong brokerage company.
A brokerage company that has resources and connections in business, logistics services and even black and white, and can provide Lu Yanhe with a full range of services.
In this regard, domestic brokerage companies are indeed not as professional as global brokerage companies abroad.
They are companies that have been in business for decades, have accumulated a lot of resources, and have established networks in countries around the world.
There are basically no companies in China that are solely engaged in artist management. Basically, the film and television business and the artist management business are intertwined.
The development stages are a bit far apart.
Chen Ziyan added: "In addition, I am going to arrange Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang to be part of your team."
Hearing these two unfamiliar names, Lu Yanhe showed doubts.
Chen Ziyan said: "The two of them were brought up in this company by me and your sister Qingzhen. Both of them are top students who graduated from prestigious schools. They are of high quality in all aspects, especially their foreign language proficiency." They are also very high. We want to train them to be responsible for the company's overseas affairs in the future."
Hearing this, Lu Yanhe was stunned.
"They have worked under us for a year. They should learn and see what the company is doing. Now it is time to go to the front line to get in touch with the artist business." Chen Ziyan Said, "Because we will do overseas business in the future, now you are the only one who has such an opportunity for them to practice, so they can only be included in your team."
Lu Yanhe nodded.
"Okay, no problem, this will expand my team." Lu Yanhe said.
Chen Ziyan said: "Well, our company will be responsible for their salary and travel, and will not go to your team's account. Although I know you don't mind, I still have to make it clear to you. ”
"Yes." Lu Yanhe nodded, "You can arrange it."
"Now our company is very short of agents who can act alone, all of them are assistants." Chen Ziyan said, "To provide this kind of high-end brokerage services, go outside dig those There is no use for mature agents. They cannot meet our needs and can only be trained by ourselves. Therefore, I plan to use these steps to train people in the future. First, I will work with us as an assistant to fully understand the company from the perspective of running the company. For our positioning, we will go to your artist team to learn the specific business, accumulate experience, and then start to practice it ourselves."
Lu Yanhe: "It sounds like it takes a long time to train a person. ”
"Yes." Chen Ziyan nodded, "But if you want to truly cultivate a qualified senior agent who can act independently, such experience is essential."
Lu Yanhe asked: "Zi Sister Yan, actually you can also consider going overseas to find young people who are new to the industry and want to be agents, and sign them to our company. They can also work for our overseas business.”
Chen Ziyan: "We don't have overseas resources to train them at this stage. Let's wait until Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang have experienced themselves by your side, and then let them develop. We have to eat one bite at a time. We I haven’t even taken a step forward yet, so don’t think about it for a long time.”
“That’s right.” Lu Yanhe nodded, “Okay.”
-
Suddenly there were two more people in the team. Zou Dong was okay. He was a bodyguard anyway and was mainly responsible for security. The extra people had nothing to do with him.
Wang Biao, who served as Lu Yanhe's assistant, suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
No one has ever told him what Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang are here to do. He doesn’t even know what the background of these two people is, nor does he know Chen Ziyan’s arrangements for them. The first reaction is that these two people are his competitors.
Because Chen Ziyan did not assign any specific positions to them, she just asked these two people to join the team directly.
However, Wang Biao himself was young, five or six years younger than both of them. Not to mention, these two were top students who graduated from prestigious schools.
Wang Biao couldn't help complaining, thinking, these two people with such high academic qualifications, what kind of assistants are they here to do?
Of course, Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang are also a little depressed themselves.
In this regard, Chen Ziyan not only hid the truth from Wang Biao, but also from Wang Qingqing and Song Jiang, and did not tell them her considerations. Therefore, there is also a big gap between Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang. From a top student similar to a "management trainee", he suddenly became Lu Yanhe's assistant.
Although it was Lu Yanhe.
Lu Yanhe knew what Chen Ziyan was planning. Don’t say anything first, just watch their reaction and temper their temper. Lu Yanhe was also treated like this by Chen Ziyan when he first came under Chen Ziyan. Chen Ziyan is not the kind of person who will break things down and tell you about them at the beginning. She will first let you experience, feel, and realize things by yourself, and then come out to give you some advice.
Therefore, Lu Yanhe did not give them any explanation.
As for how to arrange the division of labor among the three people, Lu Yanhe went to ask Chen Ziyan.
Chen Ziyan: "Let it go for two days to see what they will do, and let me observe the character of each of them."
A person's character cannot be judged by his tailwind. What he did depends on how he behaves when things don't go his way.
On the first day, Wang Biao had some friction with Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang.
On this day, Lu Yanhe was going to record interviews with the nominees for the Phenom Awards.
Lu Yanhe also led a team of five people to work for the first time. In fact, he was not familiar with Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang at all, so Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang also had an excessive respect for him.
Lu Yanhe waved his hand twice and said he could do whatever he wanted, but neither of them changed at all.
Lu Yanhe gave up for the time being and ignored this. Anyway, after waiting for a long time, they will naturally know what kind of person he is.
However, Wang Biao seemed to be unable to understand the way these two people were respectful to Lu Yanhe. He squinted and said, "If others see you like this, they will think that Brother Lu is so arrogant. Everyone in his team behaves like this in front of him.”
Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang's cheeks turned red at the same time.
Wang Biao said: "Brother Lu never cares about this. As long as you do your job well, there is no need to be the same as your subordinates in other aspects. It is not a superior-subordinate relationship in the company."
Wang Biao's sarcasm was completely an undisguised attack.
When Lu Yanhe heard what Wang Biao said, he subconsciously wanted to dissuade him and ask him not to be so mean.
But then I thought about it. Sister Ziyan wanted to take the opportunity to observe their personalities. In this case, it was the best time to observe them.
He shouldn't get involved at this time.
With Lu Yanhe thinking like this, he didn't care about anything.
Wang Biao's words made Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang blush red and blue. They were probably panicking.
Lu Yanhe pretended not to hear, put on his headphones and looked out the window.
When he got to the place, he took off his headphones and got out of the car.
Wang Biao followed Lu Yanhe on the left side with his bag on his back, leaving Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang behind.
Interviewing is actually a very simple matter.
This time, it was Peng Zhixing who was in charge of interviewing the Phenom Award nominees.
Lu Yanhe’s old friend.
These interviews will also appear in Peng Zhixing’s interview program in a special edition.
Because it was Peng's trip, Lu Yanhe was very relaxed and didn't even read the interview outline.
Lu Yanhe told Peng Zhixing about this matter as soon as he met him.
“You didn’t read the outline?” Peng Zhixing was surprised.
"No, I fully believe you." Lu Yanhe smiled, "Ask whatever you want."
Peng Zhixing: "Now I am under great pressure."
Lu Yanhe: "Why are you so stressed? You have to interview so many people. Shouldn't interviewing me be the time when you are least stressed?"
"That's true. There are too many big names nominated for the Phenom Award this time. "Peng Zhixing said, "My head is spinning."
"The organizer will invite you only if you have such ability."
Peng Zhixing is certainly not the top host now. one. However, because of the program "Young Days", Peng Zhixing's popularity has increased steadily in recent years, and his hosting and interviewing skills have also improved rapidly. He hosts almost all large-scale events of Northern Lights Video. On the self-media side of "Jump Up", there are also regular interview programs where he is invited to be the interviewer. A large amount of practical experience has been transformed by him into his own ability and charm, which has also allowed him to enter the field of mainstream awards such as the Phenom Award.
Under normal circumstances, this kind of mainstream awards invite relatively senior and famous hosts to be responsible for the interview column of nominees.
Lu Yanhe hugged Peng Zhixing and said, "I haven't washed my face yet, so I'm going to take care of myself first."
Peng Zhixing nodded and said, "No rush, you can go take care of yourself first. ”
Lu Yanhe went to his dressing room.
The makeup artist is already waiting for him.
"Hello Yan He."
Lu Yanhe greeted her, "I'm leaving it to you today."
Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang both looked surprised after seeing this. color.
Obviously, in their understanding, a star of Lu Yanhe's level would not say "I'm taking care of you today" so politely to a makeup artist.
Wang Biao could guess what they were thinking by looking at their looks.
Wang Biao also had those thoughts.
At this moment, Wang Biao felt a kind of psychological pleasure in his heart: "So what if you are college students who graduated from a prestigious school? You are still a novice with no experience."
For a moment, Wang Biao's hostility towards them became less.
-
The interview between Lu Yanhe and Peng Zhixing lasted for almost an hour.
Interviews with acquaintances are like this. Basically, there are no defenses, and there are many things to talk about.
He and Peng Zhixing not only had a lot of interactions in "Young Days", but also outside of this show, Lu Yanhe and Peng Zhixing also had many personal relationships.
This also allows Peng Zhixing to ask many questions that other hosts cannot.
For example, Peng Zhixing would ask: "Who do you think your main competitor is when you are nominated for the Phenom Award this time?"
If others ask this kind of question, Lu Yanhe will definitely not Will answer directly.
Because it was Peng's trip, Lu Yanhe dared to say it.
"Of course it's my senior brother, Shang Yongzhou."
Peng Zhixing will immediately ask at this time: "Is it because you think other people's performances are not as good as yours?"
< br>Give me a ladder, and Lu Yanhe can explain it more clearly immediately.
“No, of course not. The other nominees are also very good, but my senior brother and I were both nominated for the movie "Path of Glory". The judges will compare the two of us more. "Okay." Lu Yanhe said, "And, to be honest, this year's competition The competition is too big. If it had been shortlisted in other years, I might feel that I would be much more confident in winning the award. This time, when I saw the nomination list, I had a feeling that no one would be able to find too many faults. No matter who wins the award, there is a reason for it.”
Such words, said in Peng Zhixing's interview, were purely for Peng Zhixing's face.
Peng Zhixing nodded, "This is indeed a year of competition. Many people say so. Do you think it's a pity?"
"No." Lu Yanhe shook his head with a smile, "That's it. It’s also pretty good. Rather than winning the prize alone, I quite like watching such a big melee. Yes, I’m also curious about who this year’s winner will be.”
“If the winner was not you, would you really complain that the judges didn’t choose you?”
"Well -" Lu Yanhe pondered, thinking deeply, "I said I couldn't do it, do you believe it?"
"If someone else says it, I don't believe it. But if you say it, I believe it." Peng Zhixing laughed, "For you, this is just an award. Do you know how exaggerated it is? Everyone is surprised that you actually arrived So far, no one in China has won three awards. Many people think that you must have won it.”
“I only won two Best Supporting Actor awards, right? They were all for “Three Mountains”. "Yes, so this is the scariest thing about you. I am your friend. You have to say that." Peng Zhixing shook his head and sighed, "You haven't won the Best Actor, but everyone thinks you have won it. This is the recognition of you by the entire industry."
Lu Yanhe smiled and waved his hand. , hurriedly said: "Don't wear such a high hat on me, I dare not Dai.”
“I just have this opportunity. In fact, I still have a few questions to ask you. You can choose to answer them, or you can choose not to answer them. I will answer the questions you don’t want to answer later. It was cut out and does not appear in the feature film," Peng Zhixing said.
Lu Yanhe nodded, "It doesn't matter, I said, Brother Zhixing, you can ask whatever you want, and I will answer it."
Peng Zhixing said: "I noticed that in the past two years, you have been Your works have been shortlisted in top international film festivals and won some awards, including "Sixteenth Floor", "Seventeen Floor" and "Silent River". The hit has made many people in various Asian countries fall in love with you and become fans of your drama. You have also held fan activities in many countries such as Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Thailand. Your focus will continue to be in the future. Will you focus on filming domestic film and television dramas, or will you... take an international route? "
This is the first time Lu Yanhe has been asked such a question.
Because the movie "The Mist" has not yet been released to the public, including some cooperations that are still under negotiation, it has not been exposed to the public. Therefore, although many media know that Lu Yanhe is now well-known internationally, they have not I thought he would take the international route. After all, the films and TV series he has shot so far are all Chinese.
Lu Yanhe was surprised by Peng Zhixing's acumen, and felt that this was also a good opportunity.
Rather than being questioned by some people later, it is a good opportunity to make it clear here now.
“I will definitely focus on filming film and television dramas in China, but I will also take the international route you mentioned.” Lu Yanhe said with a smile, “I still hope that I have the ability to lead China’s Film and television dramas go overseas, allowing more audiences around the world to know me and understand me Chinese film and television dramas. However, sometimes we have to admit one thing. If we don’t first follow their rules, integrate into their circle, and be known by them, then they may not be willing to give us a chance to get to know them. "
Peng Zhixing nodded.
“Just like South Korea’s TVN TV station wants to adapt the two dramas "Six People" and "Rouge Button", I think it is a very good thing." Lu Yanhe said, "The film and television dramas produced in China can be adapted into A version in another country and language, which is both a recognition of the original and a way for more people to see it opportunity for this story. I very much welcome film and television producers from other countries to discuss adaptation matters with us, whether it is a film or television drama, a stage play, or some other form."
Peng Zhixing said: "We are domestic. There are indeed relatively few film and television dramas adapted into other versions.”
"There will be more and more in the future. I like many of the film and television dramas released this year, and many of the stories are suitable for adaptation into other versions." Lu Yanhe said, "Including "My Home I Haven't Returned for a Long Time", I I believe that foreign film companies will definitely take a fancy to this movie."
Peng Zhixing nodded and asked: "Yan He, will you participate in film and television dramas from other countries in the future?"
< br>“Of course I will if there is a good opportunity, I won’t hide it You said, I want to be an actor known to the whole world," Lu Yanhe said, "If I only act in Chinese-language film and television dramas, there may be many people who have never watched Chinese-language films and television dramas, and there is no way to achieve this goal. Of course, putting aside this utilitarian goal, as an actor, if I encounter a good story and a good character, how can I refuse?"
Lu Yanhe said? When I got here, I suddenly smiled.
“Actually, I have signed a movie with an American film company. I hope it will be released to everyone as soon as possible.”
Peng Zhixing showed a look of surprise.
"Ah? Has this movie been shot yet?"
"It will be shot next year." Lu Yanhe said, "I have to finish filming "Love Letter" first."
Peng Zhixing nodded.
“Can you give me more details?”
"Let's keep it a secret for the time being." Lu Yanhe said, "Anyway, if you are interested, you can look forward to it. It is what I just said. It is a role that I have never played before and it touches me very much. I believe that if it had been Audiences who are paying attention to me will be impressed when they see this character. He is really different from the characters I played before."
Peng Zhixing: "Then I will. Looking forward to it!"
-
After the interview, Peng Zhixing took off his wheat and confirmed with Lu Yanhe: "Yanhe, are you sure about the part where you signed a contract for an American movie? Can it be included in the feature film?"
Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Yes, as long as the information about the specific film is not disclosed, it will be fine."
Peng Zhixing said: "You have really given me a huge favor. You have brought such explosive news to my program."
"Who said that today's interviewer would be you? , I won’t say it, for fear that they will cut it randomly. . "
Peng Zhixing: "Do you have any other work arrangements later? I only have you as the interviewee today. The work has been completed. If you have nothing, let's have a drink together. "
Lu Yanhe nodded.
-
On the side, the old man Wang Biao explained to Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang: "Brother Xiao Lu has this kind of character. If it is someone he recognizes, he will be kind to people. He is a very warm person. You You can keep it in mind and don’t regard him as a big star with a big air." Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang listened to Wang Biao’s explanation, which was five or six years younger than them. They were embarrassed for a moment and didn’t know. say what.
Wan Qingqing hesitated for a moment, but took the initiative to say: "Okay, thank you, thank you for the advice."
Wan Biao was so grateful by Wan Qingqing, and his "guidance" energy was gone. Disappeared embarrassingly.
He said: "What's the point? I just stayed with Brother Lu for a long time, so I know him better than you. But don't look at him now. Wherever he goes, others will There are many people who flatter him and want to harm him, so we have to pay special attention when we are around him and don’t cause trouble for him.”
Wan Qingqing and Song Jiang nodded.
Wang Biao sighed.
“When I first started working as an assistant for Brother Xiao Lu, I did some things that caused him trouble. He didn’t scold me and just wiped my butt silently. Don’t mention how uncomfortable I was at that time. Yes, I would rather he scold me, so as not to make myself feel so uncomfortable. , you should change your style quickly and stop being so respectful. Brother Xiao Lu will feel uncomfortable if you are like this, and others will misunderstand Brother Xiao Lu's style."
Wan Qingqinghe. Song Jiang nodded sincerely this time and agreed.
Zou Dong was listening to the conversation between the three of them, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
Yes, Wang Biao has been spending a lot of time with Lu Yanhe.
The boy who used to be reckless and taunting others is now slowly becoming calmer.
When I give advice to others, I can do it one by one.

More updates than necessary, full of sincerity.
