Buying Washed-Up Celebrities at a Premium

Zhuo Xi used to be a successful professional, well known in the headhunting industry.

After resigning, she should have started a company and made a comeback. Instead, her best friend dragged her into a mess, making her the general manager of a newly founded talent agency, as well as its HR director, talent director, and talent scout.

Best friend: Xi Xi, where do you think our company's strengths lie?

Zhuo Xi: We can buy back washed-up artists at a high price. We find them, sign them, bring out their best qualities, package them properly, and relaunch them. We offer a complete one-stop service.

Best friend: Are you sure we can pull this off?

Zhuo Xi: Who else is signing washed-up artists? We're a complete monopoly.

This is the story of a little-known talent agency and two managers who stumbled into the business, trying to build a company in the entertainment industry.

Theme: Stories in the entertainment industry don't only happen in the spotlight; they happen behind the scenes, too. Headhunting and talent management are basically the same job in different industries. Some people thrive in entertainment, while others may simply lack someone who recognizes their potential. Zhuo Xi is willing to be that person. Turning ordinary stones into gold is life's greatest moment.
