Chapter 108: Who Is This?
……
That unpalatable cup of Blue Mountain coffee had been left out in the cold for a long time.
It's not the right taste, Cao Fang still likes to drink Coke, although it is easy to affect the body shape.
This contract is also not to taste.
"I can accept the sharing method, but I hope this artist contract will be signed every two years. Cao Yifang put down the contract, smiled officially, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "You are also a senior agent, I think you should be able to understand my concerns." ”
"I can understand your thoughts. The middle-aged agent, whose hair looked like a layer of jelly, also smiled professionally and said, "But you obviously haven't understood the common practice in this industry." ”
As soon as the agent spoke, Cao Fangfang knew what he was going to say, and as soon as he opened his mouth, the agent raised his palm in front of him, signaling him to be calm and calm; Cao Fangfang was actually a little unhappy with the condescension revealed in this guy's bones, but the basic politeness was still there, so he listened to him.
In fact, there is nothing to hear, this guy then bragged for a long time, how many artists he has in his hands, how much money these artists can make, how much money he can make, and how much money Cao Yifang can make in the future.
After praising himself, he began to praise the media company he worked for.
"We, Shuguang Media, are not the most famous film and television companies, yes, we can't compare with the giants in Beijing, but here in Jianghai City, we can be regarded as one of the companies with the best resources. Recently, Wan Li, who we have been supporting, has been on the star of the TV drama department, and his popularity has been soaring, which is all visible. ”
“…… Our company's TV dramas produce more than 100 episodes a year, and we have already laid out on the big screen, we have our own film and television investment, film and television distribution, film and television production, and at least one movie is released every year. ”
Cao Fangfang wanted to interject several times, but he couldn't do it, he felt very irritable, he wanted to leave for a long time, and finally couldn't help but interrupt at this time: "What about the box office?"
The agent choked and hesitated for a while before holding his head high and saying, "It's okay." ”
Cao Fangfang's face did not change, but he felt funny in his heart, this company's packaging artists are really okay, and the TV series has also made achievements, but the movie really don't take it out and blow it awkwardly, the three films last year and the year before were all small-budget films, but not only did the investment be small, but the story was also a mess, and none of them made money.
However, the senior agent is thick-skinned, this eldest brother was scolded and did not affect his state at all, adjusted for a while, and still talked inexhaustibly, Cao Fang couldn't stand it anymore, so he stood up directly and expressed that he didn't want to listen to it anymore with practical actions.
Cao Fangfang stretched out his hand: "I'll think about it, if I decide to sign a contract with your company, I'll contact you again." ”
Having said so, the agent had no choice but to reach out and shake Cao Fangfang's hand, but his face was a little unhappy, and said: "Okay, but I suggest that you have to decide as soon as possible, I also know that Mr. Cao's reputation has not been weak recently, and the role of Li Xiaoyao is the first shot of your debut, but this industry has to race against time, if you feel that you are famous, you can slowly pick and choose, then it will be troublesome...... If you miss the schedule of some good dramas and don't appear in front of the camera for a while, your popularity will soon fall...... After this gust of wind, the salary will also be reduced, and then the gains really outweigh the losses. ”
Didn't talk nonsense with him anymore, money is secondary, Cao Fang is really difficult to accept the practice of signing for five years, if the company is unreliable, can not arrange good resources, or he offends people by saying the wrong thing, to refrigerate him, wouldn't it be wasted for several years at once?
Time is life, and for artists, this sentence is even more poignant.
Accompanied by this agent, walking through the long corridor of the company, you can see many pictures of well-known artists hanging on the walls on both sides...... Since most of them are young artists, it seems a bit pompous.
Dawning Media ...... out.
……
Cao Yifang currently does not have a house to live in, and is temporarily living in a hotel.
His immediate priority was not to find a house, but to find a brokerage company.
At lunchtime, Cao Fangfang, who was wearing a cap and polarizing glasses, found a restaurant, sat in the corner, ordered a bowl of beef noodles, and after eating Hulala, he flipped through a table on his mobile phone to read carefully.
This is a form made by Xie Yanting, which was sent to him on the first day of the Lunar New Year, saying that it was a New Year's gift to Cao Yifang - it is all relevant information of major domestic film and television media companies, and the content is very concise and to the point, such as Shuguang Media, which I just visited, wrote a very concise introduction on it.
[Good at packaging young artists, the expiration termination rate is very high, the film and television investment has not yet been profitable, the short-term signing is acceptable, and the long-term signing is risky. 】
This form includes almost all domestic related companies and studios, both simple and detailed, Cao Yifang also asked Xie Yanting, but the eldest lady was stunned and didn't tell him how she did it, only said that she did it very hard, checked a lot of information, and then sent an expression to hug.
Now Cao Fangfang is a sweet and sweet, and there are a lot of phone numbers of agents of various companies stored in his mobile phone, but the current contradiction is that the contract period is too long, and small companies don't need to say much, no matter how good the contract conditions are, it is in vain if they don't have resources;
Of course, Cao Fang knows that they are talking nonsense, but he is indeed a newcomer, many companies have hard conditions, and the room for concession is really limited, if it weren't for his popularity, the contract they handed out would be much more ugly than now.
He is still screening, but he can't do it, so he can only find the most pleasing one in it.
The phone rang again, and after glancing, it was an unfamiliar number again.
There have been too many such calls in the past two days, and Cao Yifang thought that he had to change his mobile phone number quickly, otherwise the harassing phone calls in the future would make the mobile phone constantly busy.
Cao Fangfang, who was worried about the signing matter, simply hung up directly, anyway, the companies that should be contacted have already been contacted, and then as long as they are screened, they are not afraid of missing any important calls.
A moment later, a text message came.
He clicked on it and saw that it was still the same number just now.
The text message is simple and has only one sentence.
[I am a friend of Mr. Liu Yuzhuo. 】
Cao Fang paused for a moment, and while walking out, he called the phone back.
Three seconds after the bell rang, the opposite side was connected.
A particularly hearty woman's voice sounded: "Happy New Year!
Cao Fang paused again, because the voice was very unfamiliar, he shouldn't know the other party, but the way this woman greeted was clearly like shouting with an acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Happy New Year, may I ask what ...... you are?" he chose the most conservative tone.
"I'm your fan sister, it's a remote spirit party!" Although he couldn't see the other side, Cao Fang could clearly feel that the woman was smiling: "Anyway, the plot has been going too sad recently, I can see a handful of snot and tears!"
