I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Chapter 225 I am your lover, it is my duty to support me

The location scouting trip to Hong Kong went much more smoothly than Xu Kong had imagined.

The people sent by Fengxiang are more familiar with the local area of ​​Gangcheng than they can compare to.

With the help of the other party, there were almost no obstacles afterwards.

It must be said that Xu Kong was somewhat glad that he agreed to Cao Bentao.

Otherwise, we will have to spend an unknown amount of time in Hong Kong this time.

……

Guo Zihao naturally stayed in Hong Kong, and it will probably not be long before the subsequent "Sweet Honey" will officially start filming.

This time, Xu Kong finally confirmed the other party's identity as producer.

Xu Kong was worried about leaving the various chores to other people to handle.

In addition, Feng Ge had already delegated power, so it was natural for Xu Kong to let Guo Zihao take charge.

He did not go back to the capital with them, but went to Star City.

This is the third stop of Su Zhi’s concert.

Of course, Xu Kong didn't go to see Su Zhi specifically, but because Wu Youxue from Mango TV invited him to attend the 30th anniversary celebration of Mango TV.

Although there was a formal party and performance, Xu Kong was only an invited guest and did not need to perform on stage.

It is also worth mentioning that although there are many guests like Xu Kong, there are only about a dozen of them who can be considered artists or celebrities in the circle.

Moreover, most of them have already left their own brokerage companies and are the representatives of their own capital.

……

Xu Kong was of course aware that Wu Youxue was giving him enough face by inviting him in this way instead of inviting him to perform as a guest on stage.

But at the same time, he also felt that in addition to Mango TV’s anniversary celebration, there were probably some other purposes this time.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to know that he was currently busy filming a new movie, but still called him individually and was so sincere.

After getting off the plane, Xu Kong did not go to the hotel arranged by Mango, but went directly to the house that he and Su Zhi had rented before.

Xu Kong's foresight did play a significant role.

Mainly because of his relationship with Mango and Wu Youxue, except for the filming location, Xu Kong came to Star City most frequently after leaving Beijing.

And because of the base, it became much more convenient for him and Su Zhi to meet.

When Xu Kong arrived, Su Zhi had already lived here for two days.

Looking at the new furniture and things in the house, Xu Kong couldn't help but smile.

Given Su Zhi's personality, if she didn't have a strong sense of belonging here, she probably wouldn't care about these little things.

……

Su Zhi can't cook, but she specially ordered meals from a private chef who had eaten there several times before.

While eating, Su Zhi said calmly:
"Someone from Jiying Media contacted me."

This news made Xu Kong stunned for a moment.

"Jiying Media?"

"They want to sign you?"

Xu Kong guessed this at the first moment.

Jiying Media itself is almost the most influential company in the country.

And the main people signed are singers, songwriters and other music artists or practitioners.

Although it is often said online that Jiying Media occupies half of the Chinese music scene, it is indeed a bit exaggerated.

But it is true that the company with the largest number of domestic singing kings and queens, including first-line singers, is probably Jiying Media.

……

"What do you think?"

Xu Kong asked.

There is no need to say much about Jiying Media’s resources.

It can almost be said that this is the most suitable company for most of the musicians in the circle.

In the domestic music industry, from large-scale evening parties to various magical songs in online short videos, Jiying Media can be seen everywhere.

With Su Zhi's current popularity and fame, as well as her status, she will probably be able to get very good conditions after signing with Jiying Media.

And it is likely that the subsequent resources will be the only one among the current domestic companies that can allow Su Zhi to take a step forward in all aspects. "My contract with the previous company will expire at the beginning of next year."

"If Jiying is signed, there shouldn't be any problem in this regard."

"only……"

Su Zhi’s previous company was also quite large.

Logically speaking, at this time, the other party must have started to persuade Su Zhi to renew the contract.

But Su Zhi started to set up her own independent studio as early as last year.

The entire process is independently operated at our own expense.

And they will also be sucked dry by the original agency in every aspect.

This also applies to this concert.

During this period, almost no resources were provided to Su Zhi.

And when Su Zhi left, her career development was not actually going smoothly.

Unlike the subsequent encounter with Xu Kong, his popularity and traffic have even surpassed the peak state when he first debuted.

……

Xu Kong also knew what Su Zhi was hesitating about.

It's just a question of freedom.

After signing with an agency, even if the agency promises to give you more authority, you are often still out of control.

And the agency is also very realistic.

When you are popular, all kinds of resources are stuffed into you, as if you are the big brother or sister of our company.

But if popularity drops slightly, resources will be significantly reduced.

Then when you are out of fashion, your subsequent career will almost entirely depend on fate and whether you can change your destiny.

Xu Kong has experienced this before, and Su Zhi must be no stranger to it.

So he had no intention of interfering with the other party's decision.

Keeping the current state and operating your own studio independently naturally has risks.

Neither choice is good or bad; both have their pros and cons.

After all, with Su Zhi's current status and popularity, it is impossible for her to be cheated by an outrageous agency like the newcomers.

A large company like Jiying would not have signed Su Zhi specifically to set a trap for her or something. It simply saw Su Zhi's current commercial value.

If both parties are willing to talk, the terms should be more reasonable after the tug-of-war over the contract ends.

……

“I don’t really want to sign…”

Su Zhi still expressed her inner thoughts.

In fact, she is a relatively rational person.

Of course, she knew that signing with Jiying Media would be of great benefit to her future career development.

A personal studio sounds great, but only someone like her who has experienced it knows the answer.

The kind of experience where almost all performances and announcements could not be negotiated, and even in order to get on last year's "Singer", Yuan Yinan's agent had to beg for help from everyone.

But compared to signing with an agency, she still prefers her current situation.

At least there will be no need for the agency to intervene in every aspect in a very strong way.

"Then I won't sign it."

Xu Kong didn't hesitate at all.

He then added casually.

"If your studio fails to manage well and goes bankrupt, I will still support you."

Su Zhi glanced at Xu Kong, and a rare expression of genuine emotion appeared on her face.

But I couldn't help but say:

"I'm your lover, it's your duty to support me."
