Luo You: "The reason it hasn’t been announced yet is because the Global Star Celebrities List is published annually in December, so this will only be revealed then.
Although you’ve now been promoted to A-list celebrity, the staff of the Global Star Celebrities List haven’t left Huaxia yet. They still have to stay and evaluate to determine your exact ranking after entering the A-list."
Luo You said it all in one breath, giving Jinxia ti to digest.
He paused, picked up his thermos cup, and drank so water. The goji berries inside floated up and down, both nourishing and healthy.
He had known this news since yesterday, but every ti he thought about it, he felt excited and thrilled. Even now, just ntioning it filled him with passion!
Bringing out an A-list celebrity was his goal, and he finally achieved it!
Being able to nurture an A-list celebrity in his career, he felt he would have no regrets even if he retired now.
Recalling the glorious days of the past, Luo You continued: "The ranking of an A-list celebrity is very important, so you can’t slack off yet. You need to take on more reports to solidify your popularity and strive for a good ranking.
The ranking affects your market value and international status. When advertisers approach you for endorsents, your rank can add weight and help negotiate a good price..."
Having explained everything she needed to know, Luo You felt a weight lifted off his chest. He cleared his throat, composed his expression, and said, "Lastly, I need to tell you sothing."
He Jinxia felt a pang in her heart and nodded solemnly, "Go ahead."
Luo You: "I have enjoyed working with you these past two years. I’ve realized my life’s value and fulfilled my aspirations, but there’s always been a problem between us—you’re soaring too fast, and I’m chasing too slowly.
My abilities are limited; I can only bring you to the A-list level. I don’t know how to proceed beyond that, and as an agent, I have reached a bottleneck.
The duty of an agent is to manage their artist well and plan a developnt route for them.
When you weren’t yet an A-list celebrity, I could plan for you, but after you beca one, I don’t know what to do anymore."
He Jinxia opened her mouth, "Brother Luo, you—"
Luo You waved his hand, interrupting her, "Don’t rush, listen to first."
"I know my own capabilities, and my eye for selecting scripts is diocre. I prefer choosing already famous, market-validated scripts over creative ones, but you’re different.
Undeniably, half of the scripts you acted in were chosen by yourself, and your vision was precise and foresighted.
If it weren’t for the scripts you chose, according to my plan, you definitely wouldn’t have beco an A-list celebrity in three years."
Luo You took a deep breath and said solemnly, "So, I’ve made a decision: a month from now, I will formally resign from being your agent!"
"Brother Luo!" He Jinxia couldn’t help but call out, "Is soone forcing you?"
Luo You smiled at her, "Jinxia, don’t worry, no one is forcing to make this decision.
At last year’s company year-end summary, many people knew it was only a matter of ti before you’d beco famous. If soone wanted to snatch you from , they would’ve done it at the end of last year.
But no one at Tonghua Entertainnt did that. The relationship between agent and artist is very strong, and suddenly replacing either could cause imasurable consequences."
"My proposal to no longer be your agent is a decision made after careful consideration. I did want to search for new potential talents during this ti, so inevitably, I sowhat neglected you. I’m sorry for that."
He Jinxia shook her head, her eyes slightly red, "Brother Luo, you’ve been really good to , don’t think of it that way."
It’s human nature; she did not resent Luo You for his recent lack of dedication.
Although she had guessed that she and Luo You would part ways eventually, He Jinxia never thought it would be this soon.
She thought it would be at the year’s end, after the Global Star Celebrities List was announced, and things were settled, that Luo You would bring up the subject.
Luo You sighed, with a relaxed smile on his face, "Having said everything on my mind, I feel much better. I was just afraid you would resist this matter, but fortunately, you’ve always been so open-minded."
He Jinxia, her emotions slightly cald, quipped, "If I say no, would you continue to manage ?"
Luo You laughed, "No."
Those who need to leave will eventually leave; you can’t forcibly retain them.
If you insist on keeping them, in the end, it could lead to disunity, which would be unpleasant.
And the reason why Luo You proposed to leave was that he expected He Jinxia would agree.
After all, who doesn’t want to rise further in the industry? Only by him voluntarily stepping aside would the company arrange a better agent for He Jinxia.
The agent arranged by the company would be more experienced and better able to plan her career path.
Saying he wasn’t discontent would be a lie; who would want to admit they are less than others?
Luo You had tried to improve by studying hard, but he still couldn’t grasp what a star needs after becoming an A-list celebrity.
He was always chasing from behind, but He Jinxia was running too fast; in a blink, he couldn’t keep up.
He Jinxia asked, "You’re only managing ; after you resign, who are you planning to manage? Would you like to have the company pick a few promising rookies for you?"
She furrowed her brows, "Forget it, teaching rookies is too much trouble. How about this, I’ll directly give you a few potential second-tier celebrities; do you want actors or singers, and how many?"
Luo You had a wry smile on his face, "My dear, just spare ! Celebrities aren’t like cabbages; you can’t just give them away."
He Jinxia chuckled, her eyes filled with craftiness, her chin lifted slightly, "Sorry, to , they really are like cabbages. I can give them to you if I say so."
Luo You: "..." He almost forgot, this one is the CEO’s fiancée!!
Luo You stuttered, "This, this wouldn’t be appropriate, it’s not good to abuse power."
He Jinxia: "No problem, you tell who you want, and I’ll get them for you. You’ve worked with for almost three years; there’s toil if not rit, and I’ve never exercised my power as the CEO’s wife. This ti, I can give it a try."
He Jinxia’s eyes sparkled with eagerness, encouraging Luo You.
Luo You: "... No need, really no need."
After several unsuccessful attempts to persuade him, He Jinxia left the eting room regrettably.
A flicker of contemplation passed through her eyes. Although Luo You refused to poach artists from other agents, she had another great candidate, only that person hadn’t made up their mind yet.
Thinking it over, she made a phone call.
...
