Chapter 297: Write a song for you
"Forget it, I'll let you win two hundred yuan, and then go to the river with your two roommates and classmates to eat at a food stall. Chen Beila looked at the banknote in Xiao Yao's hand and thought about it for a while, and finally smiled. Although the banknotes in Xiao Yao's hand are stacked together, from the perspective of area and thickness, it can basically be judged that they are two hundred yuan.
"Okay," Xiao Yao shook his head, put away the banknotes, stood up and said, "You sit for a while, I'll make a call first." With that, Xiao Yao stood up.
"I'll take my leave if it's nothing. Chen Beila also got up and said.
"Don't, sit down a little longer, I still have something to talk to you about, you sit down for a while. I really have a call to make and I'll be back soon. Xiao Yao waved his hand to stop Chen Beila and walked out of the office.
Chen Beila could only sit down helplessly, picked up the cup of coffee that Fang still brought for her after entering the door on the coffee table in front of her, and drank it in small sips.
"Miss Chen, can you talk?" Fang still said suddenly.
"Miss Fang, if there is anything, please tell me. Chen Beila hurriedly put down the coffee and said.
"It's nothing," Fang still smiled, "Because Xiao Yao said that he wanted to find you as a guest singer, I also did some understanding of you." I think Xiao Yao seems to like you a lot..."
"What?" Chen Beila was startled.
"Don't panic, I'm not talking about that kind of liking. Everyone knows that Xiao Yao has a girlfriend, and his childhood sweetheart has a very good relationship. Fang still hurriedly raised his palms and signaled Chen Beila to calm down, and then continued, "What I said likes should be regarded as appreciation, similar to Gong Chen and Xu Yuan." ”
"You mean Xiao Yao is going to write a song for me?" Hearing Fang still mention "Gong Chen" and "Xu Yuan", Chen Beila still couldn't calm down, and said with a look of surprise.
"It's not up to me to write songs, and I shouldn't say it," Fang still smiled and waved his hand, "I just have some suggestions for your work, of course, just suggestions, I hope you don't think that I, an outsider, are pointing fingers at you." ”
"I understand, please say it. Chen Beila calmed down and nodded.
"I know where you are swimming fish right now. Fang still said, "As one of the three female anchors of Youyu, except for an email assistant who helps you screen emails, she has almost no own team, and she often broadcasts live until one or two o'clock in the morning at night, and she has to run business contact work by herself during the day." In the long run, your body will not be able to bear it, and you will miss out on many opportunities due to energy. As far as I know, you are the only one of the three major female anchors who swim fish now without an agency team. The other two have not been anchors as long as you, and their conditions are not outstanding than you in all aspects, but now that they can keep pace with you, you should have considered the reason, right?"
"But I," Chen Beila said anxiously.
"I know," Fang still waved her hand to interrupt her, "You are a grassroots anchor, and anchoring is also a profession that interacts a lot with the audience and fans, you don't want to make yourself a star, and try to maintain a sense of intimacy with them, so you don't look for agents or assistants, you do everything yourself." But the fact is that you are already a star, although you are not as good as Xiao Yao, but when you go out, you will be recognized by fans, some people will ask you for a photo, and someone will ask you for an autograph, right?"
Chen Beila stopped speaking and nodded silently.
"You have to know that a person's energy is limited after all," Fang still continued, "There are some things that you should let go of others to do, and you should give them to others." Just like Xiao Yao, at the beginning, he also had no agent or assistant, and he went alone when he participated in a TV show for the first time. But later, when he became more and more famous and had more and more things, he asked me to be an assistant, then he asked me to be an agent, and then later, we added another person to our team. Xiao Yao's ability is very strong, he can do everything by himself, even better than me, but he still gives those things to me, why? It is because he wants to keep his time and energy for those things that he thinks are more important. ”
"I probably know some of your abilities and personalities, and I feel a little similar to Xiao Yao. You do have the ability to do everything by yourself, but whether it is physical, energetic, or ability to do things, will you be stronger than Xiao Yao's demon? Xiao Yao needs to find a helper after reaching a certain stage, let alone you?" Fang still continued, "I know you don't want to be swayed or controlled by others, but finding an agent doesn't necessarily mean finding a boss who controls you. ”
"Isn't it?" said Chen Beila.
"Of course not," Fang still smiled, "and the one in front of you is an example. Although I am Xiao Yao's agent, I have no right to decide all his work. I am only responsible for the communication in the early stage and the follow-up in the later stage, and it is up to him to make his own decisions on whether the work is accepted or not. If Xiao Yao didn't get paid for participating in a show, can you imagine him asking the program team every day to ask for the debt? That's my business! Do you have an advertisement in the live broadcast that hasn't received the money yet?"
"You even know this?" said Chen Beila with a glare.
"I've watched quite a few of your live videos, too. Fang still smiled and nodded, "There are also assistants, and finding an assistant is not the same as finding a nanny who treats you as the emperor, but finding a helper for yourself." But if it's raining in an outdoor live broadcast, and you carry something in one hand and a selfie stick in the other, do you still have the hand to hold an umbrella? If you go to an event and find that you forgot to bring something necessary, when you have time, do you have to run back to get it yourself? Do you still have the energy to participate in the event after a big trip? Or do you simply quit the event and lose money?
"Do you know all these things, how many live videos have you watched from me?" Chen Beila said in disbelief. What Fang still said was indeed something that Chen Beila had already experienced.
"There's no way," Fang still smiled and spread his hands, "If you follow a demon to do things, you will unconsciously be contaminated with some of his work habits." ”
"Since you know me so well, and you say that you are an agent who will not control Xiao Yao and will not help him make decisions, then how about I ask you to be my agent?" Chen Beila looked at Fang and smiled.
"Me?" Fang still pointed to his nose, thought about it for a moment, and then nodded with a smile, "Okay!"
"Huh, do you really agree?" Chen Beila hurriedly waved her hand again and again, "I'm kidding, I can't afford to invite you!"
"I haven't even offered a bid yet, how do you know that you can't afford to hire me?" Fang still smiled, "And the agent's income is a commission from the income of the artists under him, I will earn more if you earn more, and I will earn less if you earn less, so why can't you afford to ask for it? You won't really be as picky as the sailors say, and you won't even be willing to get the commission, right?"
"That being said, it also depends on the level," Chen Beila said, "I'm a small online anchor, not even a second- or third-tier star, but you're a star agent, how can you look at my little income?"
"You say that you are not worthy of fame?" Fang still said, "Then do you think your fame is enough for Xiao Yao to invite you to the finals of "Singer" as a guest singer? Xiao Yao still sent you a formal invitation?"
"Xiao Yao is still studying, and people are relatively lazy, in fact, I don't have a lot of things on Xiao Yao's side, and I just want to find something to do. Fang still continued, "I've watched a lot of your live videos, in fact, not only Xiao Yao likes you, but I also like you." I can help you, and I can do something, why don't I do it?"
"Are you serious?" Chen Beila confirmed.
"Of course," Fang still nodded, and directly changed his title, "Sister La, as an agent, my first work suggestion is that you should pay salaries to "An Zai", "Sha Ye", and "Tang Seng", who help you make and upload videos to various barrage websites. I know that they all spontaneously make videos and upload them to the website to help you promote because they like you, and they spend a lot of money on gifts and props for you during the live broadcast, and they may not be short of money at all. But whether they lack money or not, the meaning of the money sent from your hands to them is different. And this is at least a statement by you, and it will also have a great impact on other fans and sailors. ”
"Damn, this is the role?" Chen Beila exclaimed, and then said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to explode." ”
"It's okay!" Fang still smiled and waved his hand, "This level of foul language is acceptable. Since you're in this style in your live stream, there's nothing wrong with continuing to maintain this style in real life offline. This image of yours is already very deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, I will not change you and make you into another image, but try to help you improve your fame and influence and increase your income as much as possible under your original image. ”
"Although your first suggestion was for me to get the money out. Chen Beila smiled, "Okay, I accept your suggestion, and I will contact them when I go back and tell them that I am going to pay them." ”
Fang Yi's sentence "I won't change you, make you into another image" moved Chen Beila very much, so she accepted Fang Ying's suggestion without hesitation.
"You guys had a great chat!" Xiao Yao pinched his phone and walked back to the office, looking at the two people sitting on the sofa chatting happily.
"Miss Fang has agreed to be my agent," Chen Beila smiled, "As an artist under the same agent, we will be considered the same family in the future, please take care of it." ”
"Okay, welcome to the pit!" Xiao Yao smiled, walked to a notebook next to the desk, flipped through it, took out two pieces of paper and handed them to Chen Beila, "I'll give you a meeting gift." ”
"What is this?" said Chen Beila, looking at the two pieces of paper in her hand.
"Lyrics and music scores?" Xiao Yao said, "Don't tell me that you can't read or write." ”
"No," Chen Beila said, "I just said that I won't be your guest singer, and I didn't invite Miss Fang..."
"Just call your name, I said that my agent will not help you make decisions, so I am not your boss, you are my boss. Fang still interjected.
"Okay," Chen Beila nodded, and continued, "I didn't change my mind just because I was still my agent. ”
"I didn't say you changed your mind," Xiao Yao said, "This is the song I wrote for you, and it was originally intended to be given to you as a thank you gift for you to go to "Singer" to be a guest singer for me." Although you won't go, this song was originally written for you, and it was given to you. ”
"Did you really write a song for me?" Chen Beila said happily.
"Everything is in your hands, can it still be fake?" Xiao Yao smiled, "You see if you like it or not, and if you want to sing it." ”
"The song you wrote, how many first-line big-name singers can't think of it, what else do I choose?" Chen Beila was not in a hurry to watch it, and asked Xiao Yao again, "I heard that Qian Qian and the second sister both invited you to sing during the live broadcast, did you help them write it?"
"Not yet," Xiao Yao said, "But although I didn't directly agree to them during the live broadcast, I also agreed in a biased tone, if they really want to ask me to help them write songs, I should also help them write them." After all, they praised me so much during the live broadcast, and the act of doing the ward rounds itself was also helping me, and it was not so difficult to help them write songs. But what does it matter to us? Even if we write a song, we will write it to you first. You see you haven't even spoken, I've already written it for you in advance!"
"The young man knows each other very well!" Chen Beila smiled and patted Xiao Yao's shoulder and said, "Since you mentioned the live broadcast, I remember that you also said that you would go to my live broadcast room to accompany me live, when will you cash it out?"
"Anytime!" Xiao Yao said, "But your live broadcast is all at night, while you have time now, why don't we record this song first?"
"Record a song now?" Chen Beila hesitated, "Aren't you going to prepare for the finals of "Singer"?"
"I want to prepare for the finals of "Singer", but didn't you agree to be my assistant singer?" Xiao Yao said, "Even if I find someone else to be a guest singer, people can't show up immediately." The guest singer will only be able to come to Shencheng tomorrow, and it's okay today anyway, so I'll go and help you record this song first. ”
"It turns out that you just went out to make a phone call to contact the guest singers! One phone call is done, you really don't have anything to say about this connection, you don't need me at all!" Chen Beila asked with a gossipy smile, "The guest singer will come to Shencheng tomorrow?"
"Why did you tell you?" Looking at Chen Beila, who was smiling and gossiping, Xiao Yao said angrily, "It's not you anyway!"
"Yo, angry?" Chen Bella laughed, "How can you be so stingy as a boy?" Tell me quietly, I promise not to say it in the live broadcast. ”
"Don't say it, just wait and watch the finals live. Xiao Yao turned around and said, "I'm going to the recording studio!"
