Chapter 132 Finally Found the Agent
Yiren Private Kitchen Chinese Restaurant, in the private room on the third floor.
"Acheng, where have you been... Oh, I've already been in the parking lot downstairs, right? Then come up quickly."
"He will come up soon." Teacher Wu hung up the phone, and then smiled and told the young man sitting next to him.
"Okay." The young man also replied with a decent smile, giving people a very calm feeling.
The two of them did not communicate anything anymore, and watched the boring show on the private room TV tacitly because they had already talked about what they should have done before.
If you have anything else to know next, you have to wait until the person involved Zhao Cheng comes over and chat slowly.
Because this young man is a professional agent, his name is Fang Weigang.
In some aspects, Fang Weigang and Lai have many similarities.
For example, they are all poor and hard-working entrepreneurs.
Fang Weigang's agency was founded by him, but compared with other mature companies of the same type, his company is more like a studio.
First of all, the scale is too small, and most of the work is for him to complete.
Discover new people, promote public relations, business negotiations...
There are also countless tedious emergencies every day that need to be dealt with by Fang Weigang.
Despite his hard work, the company has not improved at all and is even on a downward trend.
Because the entertainment industry is very realistic.
Any artist/screenwriter/director who is famous or has potential will consider a veteran backer like Maya Media.
No one is willing to choose to join a small brokerage company like Fang Weigang that is just starting out.
So, when he received a call from Teacher Wu, he thought he was dreaming.
Because the teacher said that he was from Shoudian and was entrusted by a student, he found him through a friend in the industry.
The name of this student is Zhao Cheng.
In the current Chinese entertainment industry.
Except for some old-fashioned practitioners who are semi-retired or rarely communicate with others, almost no one does not know Zhao Cheng, a dark horse born in the 1990s.
Since he entered the entertainment industry a year ago as the No. 1 pick in the double number one, the news about him has not stopped.
As a professional, Fang Weigang saw at a glance that there were tricks when Zhao Cheng was exposed every time.
Almost every time he was his fame fell to a low point, he immediately broke out a big hot news, which raised his topic.
Zhao Cheng's information shows that there is no broker.
Fang Weigang guessed that either there were professional promoters operating, or this kid was a second-generation star or other second-generation.
But after a long time, Fang Weigang found that his idea was wrong.
Because there are always programs that say that you can't get in touch with this hot commodity.
Combined with other things, Fang Weigang believed that it was true that Zhao Cheng had no agent, so he also learned from other brokerage companies and sent an email to Zhao Cheng to try his luck.
As a result, the email was of course sank to the sea.
Later, he heard that even the industry leader Maya Media had extended an olive branch to Zhao Cheng.
But for some reason, Zhao Cheng did not reach an agreement with them, and even offended the gold medal agent Sister Yao.
Sister Yao, who has always been domineering, directly asked her assistant to spread the contact information of Zhao Cheng’s fake agent to the public.
On the day he heard the news, Fang Weigang took his busy schedule and secretly sent an anonymous email to Zhao Cheng, writing all the hands and feet of Sister Yao into the email.
Fang Weigang is different from some colleagues who want to make money.
He would choose to become an agent, more because he likes the entertainment and culture industry.
In addition to treating artists as tools for making money, he will also look at artists themselves with an appreciation perspective.
Therefore, Fang Weigang’s principle is that if he finds that a good artist is persecuted, he will help him if he can, while ensuring his own interests.
For nothing else, he wants to be at ease in his life.
However, if Fang Weigang doesn't say that, no one knows that he, who seems to be a snobbish agent, still has such a clear stream attribute hidden in him.
Just like Teacher Wu who is smiling next to him now.
He had no idea why Zhao Cheng didn't go to a big media company and insisted on finding Fang Weigang's crumbling small company.
"Sorry, I've let you wait for a long time."
"I was recognized by fans before coming, and I blocked it for a while." Zhao Cheng pushed the door and entered apologetically, then took off his hat and mask.
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." Fang Weigang smiled with understanding.
Looking at this still sincere smile, Zhao Cheng let out a long sigh in his heart, and he finally found this buddy.
The second year after Zhao Cheng was hiding in his previous life, a small agency once came to him and said he was willing to spend 150,000 yuan to redeem him from Maya Media.
The person who came to the door was Fang Weigang.
To be honest, Zhao Cheng was very moved at the time.
Because Fang Weigang's original words are:
'If I were you, I would also choose to help fans expose the pua scumbag. Your original intention is right, but the help is wrong. The entertainment industry is a battlefield, and it will fail if you are not careful. If you want, you can come and be my artist. I will teach you to avoid traps in the future.'
Although, because of Yang Jian's intercept of Hu, Zhao Cheng was tied to Maya, Fang Weigang still said he could wait.
But a few years later, Fang Weigang was always in a state of not being able to sign any good artists.
Then, I encountered an elderly man at home who needed money to get sick, so I had no choice but to close the company and cash out and return to my hometown.
Before leaving, Fang Weigang asked Zhao Cheng to come out and have a drink of separation. The general meaning was that he felt that he could not fulfill his promise and felt sorry for Zhao Cheng.
That was also the last time the two met.
Zhao Cheng would not blame him, nor would he forget the help that this buddy was willing to lend him when he was in trouble.
So, when Zhao Cheng saw that his work email was about to be squeezed out, he immediately thought of finding Fang Weigang.
It was just at this point that Fang Weigang's agency had not even been trained as a slightly famous artist. Zhao Cheng asked everyone around him that had never heard of his company, and even the Baidu girl could not find it.
Zhao Cheng could only ask Teacher Wu to help pay attention.
The omnipotent Teacher Wu did not disappoint. He told him yesterday that he found it.
There are usually three types of contracts between artists and brokerage companies.
Class A is [full contract], and all performances of artists within a certain period of time are handed over to the company for handling, and the company's revenue accounts for the majority.
Class B [Agent Contract], all resources are found by the actors themselves, the company only helps with the processing, and then divides them according to the contract ratio.
Category C is [partially], where artists only contract certain types of rights to the company, such as film and television roles to the company, but filming advertisements are controlled by themselves.
Zhao Cheng and Fang Weiming finally signed a Class C contract, and both parties were very satisfied with this contract.
"Then we will be partners in the future!" Zhao Cheng reached out and shook with him.
With his own joining, Fang Weiming probably won’t leave this job as helplessly as in his previous life.
"By the way, I happen to have the interview quota for the 10.1 National Day Gala of China TV Station."
