Chapter 278: A New Team of Like-minded People
Jian Xia Zhi picked this 'lone seedling' among dozens of agents' job resumes, and after the assistant Xiaozhu contacted the other party, they agreed to meet at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The position of an agent in the entertainment industry is not the same as other jobs, what is valued is not only the ability in all aspects, but the most important thing is to put yourself in the shoes of the artist.
Jian Xia Zhi learned from the information provided and the information searched on the Internet that this selected 'Du Miao' also belongs to an agent who adheres to his original intention, and his thoughts on artists are somewhat similar to her.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, in the reception room of Jinshi Brokerage Company.
The fragrance of tea curls up, the warm sun outside the window spills on the printed carpet, and Jian Xia Zhi and the job seekers who arrived twenty minutes early do not sit opposite each other.
"I'm curious, you once worked as an agent for a popular first-line student, why did you choose to come to me, a little-known small brokerage company?" Jian Xia Zhi asked straight to the point.
'Dumiao' Xie Anwen smiled calmly: "It's very simple, because Grandma Fu is the boss of this brokerage company." ”
"Oh, what do you say?" Jian Xia Zhi took a sip of the teacup and waited patiently for the other party's answer.
Xie Anwen is eight years older than Jian Xia Zhi, but her makeup and dress are more than ten years younger than her actual age, and her capable professional skirt and neat short hair are better than Jian Xia Zhi imagined.
"Grandma Fu is also an agent who has been in the entertainment industry for many years, and you and I both know the benefits of being backed by a big tree." Xie Anwen held the teacup and rotated it slightly: "Fu Shao is your big tree, and I want to stand up again." ”
Jian Xia Zhi motioned for her to continue.
"Gao Liang was brought out by me, he has been a red mess since he was twenty-one years old, relying on a face, he has received countless IP traffic dramas, but there are still no works with particularly good reviews."
Xie Anwen sighed to Jian Xia Zhi: "Gao Liang, as a first-line traffic, can't just rely on idol dramas, when he was twenty-seven years old, I suggested that he transform, because there is no shortage of small fresh meat in the entertainment industry, especially newcomers with high appearance." ”
"I remember what you said, the information shows that you terminated the contract with Gao Liang's entertainment company a year and a half ago." Jian Xia Zhi said: "It was also in this year and a half that Gao Liang was squeezed out of the front-line position, and the situation was not embarrassing. ”
The artist Jian Xia Zhi knows it, and when he was the most popular, he also grabbed a Xiaobai's endorsement advertisement, and at that time, it was on the hot search in three days. The fame is much higher than that of Xiaobai, of course, that is just the past.
After Gao Liang was twenty-eight years old, he was suddenly powerless, as Xie Anwen said, this age is a bit too old for traffic students, but a real actor is just starting his acting career at this age.
"Some unsightly things in the skirt, Grandma Fu has also seen a lot, and I have nothing to hide." Xie Anwen told the truth: "At the beginning, I helped Gao Liang take over the transformation of a literary film, but at the same stage, a popular IP invited him. ”
When she said this, Xie Anwen gestured to Jian Xia Zhi: "The salary of the popular IP is 60 million, and the theme is e-sports hot-blooded idol dramas." ”
"I strongly recommended Gao Liang to take on literary films at the time, but he felt that the film salary of literary films was low, and it was likely that it would not be released in China. The most important thing is that this non-literary film still needs to be auditioned, and the first and second auditions can be passed twice. ”
"I don't know if Gao Liang was dissatisfied with my suggestion, or for other reasons, he went to the company's senior management the night before the first audition, and explained my arrangement to the next level, and finally refused the opportunity to audition for a literary film and chose another."
Xie Anwen sighed: "Actually, I can understand Gao Liang's thoughts at the time, he didn't dare to fight, because he was worried that the good shooting of literary films might be the icing on the cake, but once the response does not meet expectations, he will lose a lot of popularity and fans." ”
"So what? You terminated the contract with the company at the time early because of this incident? Jian Xia Zhi asked.
"This is just the beginning." Xie Anwen raised her head and drank the tea.
"The e-sports-themed idol drama filmed by Gao Liang was changed because of the magic change in the plot, and the book fans didn't buy it, so they united to resist, and in the end, this drama was postponed because of the limited theme, and it has not been broadcast yet."
She looked at Jian Xia Zhi: "You also know what kind of situation a traffic student without works will encounter after losing his popularity." During that time, the company arranged the high-profile advertising endorsements, magazine shoots and interviews, so as not to lose popularity. ”
"So there were situations such as rolling plays, cutouts, and stand-ins, and I pushed down a lot of notices for Gao Liang, and I was dissatisfied with the high-level, and it happened that Gao Liang also had resistance to me, so I became an outcast."
"The most outrageous thing is that after Gao Liang went downhill, his black history was deducted on the head of my agent, you should have also seen those posts and interviews with Gao Liang selling miserably, saying that my agent made him do this, I was really wronged!"
Jian Xia Zhi looked at the self-deprecating smile on Xie Anwen's face, and she didn't feel good in her heart.
"Compared with your ability, I value your heart for the development and maintenance of artists more." Jian Xia Zhi thanked Anwen for pouring tea: "You have also heard about my things in the circle, in addition to the identity of Grandma Fu, I have also cultivated many artists. ”
"Of course, Xun Ze, Xiaobai, and the sudden rise of Lin Yue." Xie Anwen asked rhetorically: "The termination of the contract between you and the original company is also due to the dispute over the development of the artist, right?" ”
"Yes, so we have something in common." Jian Xia Zhishen smiled and nodded: "I don't like the company to overconsume artists, treat artists as cash cows, and deprive artists of their rights, maybe profit is the pursuit of entertainment companies, but not in my case." ”
"That's because you married into a wealthy family and are not short of money." Xie Anwen teased, and her tone did not have a cynical tone.
Jian Xia Zhi smiled bitterly: "The wife of a wealthy family is not as easy as you think, but this topic has nothing to do with work." Salary and treatmentI believe you also know that Jinshi brokerage company is still in its infancy, and the contract is signed once every three years, and the treatment will be adjusted according to the situation. ”
"Are you planning to hire me?" Xie Anwen had an accident: "I have a black history on my back, and when I was terminated in advance by the highlighted company, it was very unpleasant, and now I can still see these news on the Internet, don't you think about it?" ”
It is precisely because she didn't have any hope that Xie Anwen would call Jian Xia Zhi 'Young Grandma Fu', she thought that Jian Xia was taking the opportunity to mock her when she met her today, after all, when Xiaobai first debuted, she had robbed Xiaobai's staff in order to highlight it.
In a way, she and Jian Xia Zhi at that time were opponents.
Jian Xia Zhi saw what she was thinking about, and took the initiative to stretch out her right hand: "I have thought about it clearly, Jinshi Brokerage Company needs an agent like you, and I hope we can cooperate happily." ”
Xie Anwen was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Jian Xia Zhi to recognize her, and even willing to sign her, an outdated agent who was on the verge of getting out of the circle.
At the moment when the two shook hands, Xie Anwen's eyes were red.
Half an hour later, Xie Anwen went to the restaurant under the arrangement of Jian Xia Zhi.
Jian Xia Zhi took Xie Anwen to her office and asked her assistant Xiaozhu to send the signing documents and the contract over.
"This is the contract, you can read it slowly, and if there is no doubt, just sign it." Jian Xia Zhi handed the signature pen to Xie Anwen.
"I agree to work for you." Xie Anwen briefly overturned the case and signed directly.
Jian Xia Zhi reminded with a smile: "You have to read the text contract clearly, don't you be afraid that I will set a text trap?" ”
"For me, an agent with a black material and a disgraceful past, thank God that you are willing to sign with me." Xie Anwen put the signed contract in front of Jian Xia Zhi: "I will collect the flight on time on Monday, but who is the artist I am responsible for?" ”
"A half-new female artist, now a sophomore." Jian Xia Zhi handed over the artist's materials and information in all aspects to Xie Anwen: "On the weekend, you can slowly understand the artist's past, and we will come step by step in a down-to-earth manner." ”
Xie Anwen glanced at the folder, and immediately burst into a happy voice: "This little girl I know that she is very impressed by the 'green tea' and 'little white flower' she played in an online drama, although there are only a few scenes." ”
This time it was Jian Xia Zhi's turn to be surprised: "Have you ever paid attention to a newcomer like her who is outside the eighteenth line?" ”
"I haven't had any serious work for the past year and a half, and I'm still worried about things in the entertainment industry, so I habitually pay attention to newcomers, especially the trust with the company, thinking that I can pick up the job of an agent again." Xie Anwen pointed to the photo of the female artist.
"You may not believe it, I really contacted this little girl by phone, but she suspected me of being a liar and set my number to the same list." Xie Anwen couldn't cry or laugh.
Jian Xia Zhi didn't expect that fate was really so magical: "It seems that it is fate that you will become such a relationship." ”
At noon, Jian Xia Zhi led a small team of more than a dozen people from the company to welcome Xie Anwen, the first agent to sign a contract.
After the meal, Jian Xia Zhi wanted to send Xie Anwen home by the way, and when the two were chatting, they mentioned Ye Sangyan's matter.
"That post then exposed a few more photos, this time without a filter to cover up, and the character behind Ye Ying completely collapsed."
Xie Anwen sighed and continued: "Obviously, Ye Sangyan was calculated this time, and the photo is definitely not a selfie, but Mu Chengzhou can't change anything." Many netizens and melon-eating people also saw that the person who posted it was showing off that he knew the inside story. ”
Jian Xia Zhi also expressed deep sympathy for Ye Sangyan's experience: "If Ye Yinghou's agent and company responded as soon as possible, it would definitely not be this situation. ”
"Yes, now people on the Internet not only do not condemn this person who exposed the photo post, but are all denouncing the problem of Ye Yinghou deceiving fans." Xie Anwen felt that it was not in harmony: "The current world is like black and white upside down. ”
"That's why agents like us are needed to always think about artists." Jian Xia Zhi confessed: "In fact, there are good people who still ask where Xiaobai is, and ask him what he thinks about Ye Yinghou's matter. ”
Mentioning this, Xie Anwen was also very puzzled: "With Xiaobai's current identity, no one will deliberately embarrass him, right?" is also the second young man of the Fu family. ”
"I'm still the young grandmother of the Fu family, don't you say the same? As a result, I was still targeted by the company's top management, and even the artists I was under at that time were wronged. Jian Xia didn't look like she was complaining, but casually teasing.
"When Xiaobai was popular, the identity of the second young man of the Fu family was exposed, but if I am not mistaken, is Xiaobai's contract about to expire?"
"Well, it's due at the end of this year." Jian Xia Zhi responded truthfully.
