The interview time on November 19 was set with 8 interviewees, and on November 15, Wei Mingrang first ushered in a meeting with an agent.

In addition to the brokerage company that came to Shanghai for the first time, several brokerage companies or big-name agents wanted to sign Wei Mingrang, but the commission was too high, and the minimum was 30%, and Wei Mingrang never let go.

The free broker who met with Wei Mingrang this time was called Tang Jining, who was said to have come out of a large brokerage company in Beijing, and expressed his intention to be an exclusive agent for Wei Mingrang through Xie Yi.

As for the commission, Tang Jining hopes to meet with Wei Mingrang and talk about it in detail.

Other brokerage companies or brokers heard that Wei Mingrang, who was conveyed by Xie Yi, only gave a commission of 10%, and they didn't even want to meet.

Tang Jining was the first agent who looked promising to accept Wei Mingrang's request.

Of course, through this period of understanding, the proportion of giving one percent to the agent is indeed too low, even if Tang Jining meets Tang Jining, he may not accept one percent, and he can talk about it, but Wei Mingrang will not give more than two percent.

If it weren't for the fact that he had to write novels and start a company, and he also had to study and take exams to complete his studies, he wouldn't have so much time, even if he didn't have an agent.

There is no shortage of big-name stars in the entertainment industry who have no agents, and everything is done by themselves.

However, Wei Mingrang has too many things to juggle, and there is not enough time, so he must have the assistance of an agent.

Wei Ming asked him to read the resume that came from the artist, although Tang Jining was assigned by the company in that large brokerage company, he had also served several fourth- and fifth-tier starlets, including the three fields of film and television songs, and he was very experienced, and he should also have some network resources in his hands.

Therefore, Wei Mingrang was willing to meet with him, and agreed to have dinner together on the evening of November 15, chatting while eating.

In the evening, in a hotel in Nanping, Wei Mingrang and Tang Jining met, and the Xie Yi brothers and Yu Yongqiang accompanied them.

Everyone chatted while eating, and Tang Jining was naturally not very satisfied with Wei Ming's commission of only one percent.

Because Wei Mingrang's current level is far from reaching the superstar, the one-percent share is a bit less for Tang Jining, an agent who has been in a large company.

Even if he is not a big-name agent, he has seen the world anyway, and he is not an ordinary worker.

However, Wei Mingrang's advantage is that he not only has a career in songs, but also novels.

Tang Jining also learned about the influence of "Buddha is the Way", knowing that Wei Mingrang's status in the online novel industry is not low, and the novel will be published and adapted in the future, and there is not much room for maneuver.

After learning that Wei Ming let him open a company, Tang Jining proposed a plan, he entered Wei Mingrang's company, and was fully responsible for Wei Mingrang's entertainment external contact as an assistant, and Wei Mingrang gave him a salary.

Then, he helped Wei Ming to contact commercial performances, advertising endorsements, and copyright negotiations, and he took a 10% commission, but Wei Ming was responsible for all the costumes, props, and accommodation involved, or the company reimbursed him.

Tang Jining is a free broker, not a brokerage company, and it is naturally impossible for him to be responsible for Wei Ming's other expenses with only one percent of the commission, and Wei Ming must let him be responsible.

At the same time, with only a low share ratio of 10%, Tang Jining asked to enter the company and let Wei Ming open another basic salary, which is also a guarantee.

What if you can't contact commercial performances and advertising endorsements for a long time? Tang Jining himself will not have no income at all because he has no commission.

Regarding the basic salary, Tang Jining's mention was not high, as long as 5,000.

Wei Mingrang thought that Tang Jining might ask for a salary of more than 10,000 yuan, but he didn't expect to mention only 5,000.

Then he understood that this was 2005, not 2015, and neither the national economy nor the income of celebrities had reached as high as it had been more than ten years later.

In this era when the average monthly salary is only more than 1,000 yuan, the basic salary of 5,000 is actually the salary of middle and senior managers in many companies.

Plus a commission of one percent, which is not low.

However, the specific contract still needs to be checked by a lawyer, because Wei Mingrang's income component will be very complicated in the future, and Tang Jining can't share everything.

On November 17, in a law firm, Tang Jining signed a three-year labor contract with Chongqing Netcloud Company, mainly responsible for commercial performances, advertising endorsements, negotiations, etc.

Of course, Tang Jining can't do everything alone, and after there are more things in the later stage, Wei Mingrang will help him equip his subordinates, but he doesn't need it now.

After officially signing the contract and joining the company, Tang Jining wanted to rent a house and move, and then start working to help Wei Mingrang contact the commercial actors.

It is still a bit difficult to rely on Wei Mingrang's manuscript fee to support the operation of a company, and other income is still needed.

On Saturday, November 19, in the company's office, Wei Mingrang interviewed the eight book friends who had contacted earlier.

Because they are all Wei Mingrang's book fans, the interview atmosphere is very relaxed, but it also makes Wei Mingrang a little difficult to choose.

Originally, Wei Mingrang's plan was to only find 5 programmers and an accountant, but the performance of these people in the interview was also very good, coupled with an excellent resume, as well as the relationship between the author and the fans of the book, Wei Mingrang was reluctant to let go.

And none of these people want to leave, and everyone wants to work in the company of their favorite author, Ming Qiao.

Fortunately, there was still the manuscript fee just sent in hand, so Wei Ming had no choice but to add a few more desks and computers, and accepted all 8 people.

Among them, two women, Ge Yunxi as an accountant and Zhou Xuening as a cashier, both have a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan, in addition to finance, they are also responsible for running procedures, carving official seals and other miscellaneous matters.

As for the expansion of the company's scale and the establishment of the finance department in the future, who will be the financial director, Wei Mingrang has another candidate in mind.

For the other 6 programmers, Wei Mingrang gave different monthly salaries of 2000-3000 according to their resumes, and set up a school intranet project team to be responsible for preparing for the establishment of the school intranet.

One of them, a programmer named Gu Bo, who came out of Baidu's technical department, was temporarily appointed by Wei Mingrang as the project team leader.

Because of the urgency of time, Wei Ming asked a few staff from other places to rent a house and move quickly, and put into work as soon as they settled down.

Gu Bo and another local programmer got to work the next day, helping Wei Mingrang check how his web page was doing.

After Gu Bo's inspection, Wei Mingrang's school intranet web page production is still relatively rough, and there are still many things to be improved.

After having subordinates, Wei Mingrang was mainly responsible for coming up with ideas, telling some of the functions and functions and limitations of the school intranet in his memory, and Gu Bo and the programmers would optimize them, and strive to launch them as soon as possible.

The original historical school intranet was launched in December 2005, and Wei Mingrang did not have much time.

Fortunately, whether it is the school intranet or Renren, or even the domain name of the 5Q campus network has been preemptively registered by him, and the other party can't use the name of the school intranet if he wants to, but I don't know what other name the other party will use.
