At the end of October, after more than three hours of flight, Lin Chen came to the capital again, compared to the confusion and excitement four months ago, he is now more calm, because he was invited to participate in the recording of the dinner werewolf killing program.

Dinner Werewolf Kill is an online variety show produced by Miwei Media, Miwei Media is located in Beijing, in order to control the program process, the recording site is arranged in a studio near the company. As an ordinary guest, Lin Chen also needs to rush to the capital to record the show.

"In the early hours of the morning, the werewolf kill at the dinner is different from our panda kill, the guests are well-known stars, they are more realistic and complicated, don't think about having a relationship with them and being friends. The only advice I can give before I am famous: not impatient, humble and courteous, not far and not close. ”

At the exit of the station, a middle-aged woman in her forties, wearing a women's suit and silver-rimmed glasses, was whispering something to Lin Chen, she was the agent arranged by the panda platform: Liu Lin.

There is a very interesting phenomenon in the entertainment industry, men are feminine and women are masculine, and Liu Lin is no exception. She has fresh short hair, her facial features are more three-dimensional under the dress, her eyes are bright and sharp, and she exudes a capable atmosphere. When they first met, she left a bad impression in Lin Chen's heart.

"Thank you, Sister Lin, I see. Lin Chen hurriedly nodded and thanked him, like a primary school student who was taught by the head teacher.

No, in front of Liu Lin, a veteran in the entertainment industry, he is indeed a primary school student.

In terms of qualifications, Liu Lin is a senior in the agent industry, with more than 20 years of experience in bringing stars from the end of the 20th century to the present, during which she has also witnessed the development of the entertainment industry and has been affected by capital. It's a pity that the opportunities are average, and he didn't seize a few opportunities, so that he is still a third-rate agent, and he doesn't even have a second-tier star.

In fact, it is normal, with Lin Chen's current situation, it is difficult to attract top agents.

The anchor industry is different from the entertainment industry, and his achievements are difficult to be recognized by the entertainment industry, he is a big anchor in the anchor industry, and he can attract hundreds of thousands of viewers every time he broadcasts live, but he is still a newcomer in the entertainment industry, and even more embarrassing than a newcomer. In the eyes of many veteran stars, the anchor's entry into the entertainment industry is the enemy of stealing business, and it is also the garbage that lowers the style of the entertainment industry, and his status is worse than that of the draft singers more than ten years ago.

Liu Lin was very satisfied with Lin Chen's attitude, and there was a hint of a smile on his serious face: "You don't have to worry too much. With me in everything, I can help you resist anything. And you are an invited guest, and the program team will not be too excessive. ”

Many outsiders don't understand the importance of agents to celebrities, and think that agents deprive celebrities of their freedom, and they take away part of the celebrity's income without doing anything. If you meet Ma Song and the like, not only will a share of the money you earn be taken away, but your wife will be stolen. Since agents do more harm than good, why do celebrities need agents.

The reason is very simple, stars also have hierarchical distinctions, for super first-line stars, agents are dispensable, they themselves are brands, and they don't need the resources brought by agents, but the fashion circle, advertisers, and directors beg them to accept advertisements and endorsements.

In any circle, there are only a few people standing at the top of the pyramid, and most of them are still in the middle and bottom ends. For stars below the super line, the importance of agents has skyrocketed.

There are ace brokers, gold brokers, first-class brokers, second-rate brokers, and non-mainstream brokers, with different levels and different statuses.

Brokers are different from celebrities, brokers are behind-the-scenes personnel, and it is difficult to determine the level with fame, so what is the standard for measuring the level of brokers?

How many investors you know, how many big directors and big stars you have worked with, whether you have friends in the fashion industry, whether you are a guest of the TV station leader, these are the criteria for determining the status of the agent.

The top ace agent carries immeasurable top resources. Whether it is a big director or an investor, it is not the star itself that is interested, but the agent. These brokers themselves are circles, and the resources in the circles make all insiders jealous.

Compared with ace brokers, other levels of brokers also have their own resources. Therefore, between celebrities and agents, agents are not dispensable subordinates, but equal collaborators, and even superior leaders.

obviously doesn't like a certain agent, why don't celebrities fire each other, it's not that they don't want to fire but they can't.

Even the top super-first-line stars need the white gloves of the agent to do a lot of inconvenient things, such as rejecting the invitation of a certain bigwig, doing something after being exposed, occasional emotional outbursts, etc., everything can be pushed to the agent, and always maintain their predecessors.

For Lin Chen, Liu Lin is not a leader or a collaborator, but a leader recommended by Panda. Whether the two have a chance to work together or not, and how far they can go, both sides have a choice.

"Okay, no matter what happens, I'll discuss it with Sister Lin. Lin Chen knows his identity very well, he is a newcomer, he has not experienced many things, what are the rules of that circle, what are the well-known taboos, and it is not a bad thing to ask for advice often.

Lin Chen's answer made Liu Lin even more satisfied, and although he didn't say it, he scored a high score in his heart. From the contact to the present, the other party does have the capital of the fire.

It was a special circle, handsome men and beautiful women were gathered, outstanding appearance was only the minimum standard, if you want to become famous and become popular, you need other conditions besides appearance. No matter how you rank it, personality is one of the necessary conditions for ranking in the top three.

Personality is not good, no matter how many resources there are, how outstanding the external conditions are, and how amazing the background is, there is not much chance of becoming popular. Even if you can't hide from the other party, then offer it first, and say goodbye immediately after the cooperation is over, and you don't want to meet again in your life.

With Lin Chen's appearance and personality, even if the opportunity is worse, Xiaohuo is not difficult, and for a while, Liu Lin has some other thoughts in his heart.

After working hard in the entertainment industry for so many years, Liu Lin understands what opportunity means, and since she has encountered it, she can do more.

Thinking of this, Liu Lin's attitude towards Lin Chen has changed significantly: "There are some things that can be discussed with me, and some things that you need to take care of yourself, especially when you enter the entertainment industry from the anchor world, no matter what your original fame is, you must first adapt to the gap in fame." ”

What is the difference in fame? Lin Chen quickly felt the difference.

First of all, no one picked up the airport, from the airport to the hotel, the program team only sent him an address and asked them to take a taxi over, and there was not even a polite word during the period.

When they came to the hotel of the program team, the staff ignored them as much as they could, threw them a room card and left in a hurry, and received a big roll of eyes when they asked more, and the whole crew didn't seem to treat them very well from top to bottom.

This situation caught Lin Chen off guard, although he is not a star, he is also a big anchor with a popularity of more than one million, how can he not even have a trace of respect. What relieved him was that Cai Yongjian's attitude towards him was still enthusiastic.
