Chapter 152: Emergency Firefighting
Huang Qixin was fascinated by the lake, and Gu Che talked about his friend.
As a variety show director in the entertainment industry, most of the friends he made were insiders, so when Gu Che wanted to find an agent, he also mentioned it to the practitioners in the entertainment industry who were more familiar with him, and asked them to recommend some good independent agents or old agents who wanted to come out of the company and work alone.
Gu Che's current fame is no longer suitable for being brought by a rookie agent, and he urgently needs an old agent to use his connections to help him match up and sort out his career plan.
At the same time, he is also willing to offer a high hiring price to the broker.
participated in the variety show "I Am a Singer-Songwriter 3", even if Gu Che did not accept advertisements, but relying on the achievements of the song alone was enough for him to do a lot of things willfully.
To tell the truth, if Gu Che doesn't mix in the entertainment industry, the money he has earned in the past few months, as well as the copyright fees from the follow-up songs, will be enough for him to live a good life.
Of course, if you take this money to buy a house, then I'm afraid you still have to bear some mortgages, Huadu is a place with good urban scenery and dense crowds, it belongs to a first-tier city, and housing prices will only get higher and higher with inflation, and it is difficult to have a time to fall.
Even if there is, it may not be met by Gu Che.
Some low-cost and high-quality housing prices will be used by some real estate developers to give favors, and it looks like the price has been reduced, but you can't line it up.
The price reduction advertisement is played very loudly, and I went to the real estate sales department to ask.
- "I'm sorry, but none of those houses can be sold." ”
Who doesn't know the routines inside?
In just one day, it was sold out?
Therefore, in the entertainment industry, Gu Che still has to continue to mix, but with the capital he currently has, he has a lot of choices, and he can also spend money to solve some things.
What can be solved with money is the simplest thing.
Huang Qixin said as he spoke, his spirit also sobered up, and he hesitated: "I can't tell you clearly on the phone for a while, why don't you find a time to meet him and talk to him in person?" ”
Gu Che said briskly: "Yes, when is he free, can he make an appointment today?" ”
Huang Qixin: "He's not in Huadu, he won't come to me tomorrow to catch up." I don't know what I thought, he hesitated: "By the way, I haven't mentioned you to him yet, I only know that he left his job because of some things, and told me that he wanted to come to Huadu to find a job, and vaguely wanted to launch the entertainment industry." ”
Gu Che couldn't cry or laugh: "You are unreliable in recommending this person!" ”
Huang Qixin smiled: "It's not like you've been saying that you want to find an agent recently, and I want to return it to you as soon as I have a suitable candidate here!" ”
He added, "Why don't I mention you to him first?" ”
Gu Che thought for a moment and refused: "No, I'll talk to him personally." You also said that your friend has been in a bad mood recently and wants to change careers, maybe if you mention it to him, he will immediately refuse. ”
Huang Qixin: "Okay, let's come out for a meal together tomorrow." ”
After making an appointment, Gu Che hung up the phone and took out his notebook to record the information that Huang Qixin had just recommended that person.
He had a pretty good memory, and he quickly thought about the man's information.
The person introduced by Huang Qixin is not a friend who only met in the circle, but he met in school. The two of them have the same dormitory in college, play well, and come out after graduation to find a job together.
Later, Huang Qixin changed his career to become a variety show director, and he felt that the entertainment industry was still quite profitable, so he told his classmates, so his classmates also came to the entertainment industry and became an agent.
According to Huang Qixin's words, this friend of his is very good, he is very atmospheric in dealing with people and communication, and he has also studied some psychology, so he can be half of a problem-solving psychiatrist, and he is very good to the artists under him.
So as soon as he joined a small entertainment company, it only took a year to get out of the company, and more than a dozen artists in that company wanted to go over to him.
But it's a pity that the scale of the company is so small, and there are other agents, even if the stars jump to him, the resources can't be allocated.
My friend was quickly promoted, and he was also very ambitious in his career, and after three years of work, he took a bunch of stars to a medium-sized entertainment company, and he also solved the problem of those stars' overlord contracts very well.
Gu Che still remembers that when Huang Qixin said this, he couldn't help but sigh with envy: "If I had his kind of means, maybe I would have become popular a long time ago!" ”
My friend got out of the mix in three years, and he took root in the self-made variety show for six years!
It took six years to make a decent "I Am a Singer-Songwriter 3", and it took six years of struggle in exchange for a cross-continent leap!
has the means, has the scheming, and can fight, all the conditions of this person are very in line with Gu Che's requirements, except that because he is a medium-sized entertainment company, he will be a little lacking in connections, everything else is good.
And this is precisely the point that Gu Che is least worried about.
What he doesn't lack now is connections.
Some people begged him to write songs.
It's not that Gu Che doesn't look at the business mailbox that comes out publicly, but he doesn't need to look at it, and he can imagine with his toes that the mailbox is probably full.
He's not just a singer, he's also a creator. He can sing his own original songs to be popular, in addition to his singing skills, most of them are excellent songs and the audience likes them.
So, the songs he writes can not only be sung by himself, but also by other people, who doesn't want a good song? Who doesn't know the importance of a good song for a singer?
With this, Gu Che had long been aware of his advantage, and he took this advantage to the core.
Seeking to cooperate with him, it is certainly not only those small and medium-sized entertainment companies, but also many large entertainment companies, as long as they can find a suitable agent, these cooperation invitations can become his connections to take off.
After finishing up, Gu Che called Wang Meng again.
Wang Meng admired him very much when he recorded "Ace Action", and later took him to participate in a cross-continent entertainment variety show as a guest, and made no secret of his support.
He also told Gu Che more than once that if he wanted to mix in the entertainment industry, he could find him, and he could lead Gu Che into the door.
As a result, everyone has seen it.
Wang Meng couldn't carry Gu Che after all, so Gu Che got up by himself first!
Despite this, the previous relationship between the two is still there, and Gu Che can't do such a thing as ignoring his former benefactor because he is popular.
He picked up his mobile phone again and called Director Wang Meng.
On the other side, Luo Mingli saw Gu Che hanging up his phone and writing something, thinking that he was going to go over to rehearse Cantonese opera with him after chatting.
didn't think that soon Gu Che picked up the phone again, Luo Mingli paused and shook his head, it seems that with the sudden explosion of album sales, Gu Che has to be busy.
Kong Ping also saw it and patted him on the shoulder: "Look at it, Xiao Che won't stay in the studio all the time, he is too talented in creation, and creating can affect many people even more." ”
Acting, after all, is just playing a person's life.
Whether it is a Cantonese opera actor, or a movie or TV drama actor, they can't escape the framework of the role.
But creation is different, creation is a broad, more in-depth thing.
Playing a role may affect some people, but creation can affect thousands of people.
Since Gu Che has a creative talent, as a senior brother, Kong Ping also hopes that Gu Che will not waste this talent and contribute more excellent and wonderful original Cantonese opera scripts and original songs.
Luo Mingli sighed and sighed slightly: "This is the gap between people, the difference between the world!" ”
The sadness was just for a moment, and soon he thought about it again, and said with his eyebrows: "If I can't get along one day, I will go to Gu Che and fight the local tyrant!" ”
Kong Ping said angrily: "Crow's mouth, the Cantonese opera industry is fine, how can you not get along!" ”
Suddenly, Kong Ping's mobile phone rang, it was a call from the master, and he answered it.
……
"Director Wang, what's the matter with me, I went to bed early yesterday and didn't look at my phone!" Gu Che got through the phone and immediately lowered his posture and said.
There's no shame in that.
Facing Huang Qixin is different from facing Wang Meng, half of Huang Qixin's show relies on him to help cross continents, so he can be regarded as half of Huang Qixin's benefactor, and the communication between the two is relatively equal.
But director Wang Meng is different, when Gu Che met him, he was already an extremely senior ace variety show director, "Ace Action" can be done for six consecutive years, and every year is the top show in cross-continental variety shows, which is enough to prove his awesomeness.
Whether in terms of connections or resources, Huang Qixin and Wang Meng are not of the same level.
Don't look at Huang Qixin's age and Wang Meng, but if he sees Wang Meng, he has to honestly and respectfully shout "Big Brother"!
Wang Meng chatted with him for a while and asked him how he was doing, and Gu Che replied honestly, after all, there was nothing to make up.
Either in a Cantonese opera studio or on the way to a Cantonese opera studio, the life of a creative talent is so simple and mediocre.
Wang Meng got to the point: "I heard the sales results of your album, it's very good, I also bought one to listen to, are you sure you are going to be a singer?" ”
Gu Che thought for a moment and replied, "It should be." ”
Wang Meng asked curiously: "Don't go in the direction of actors?" You are a Cantonese opera actor, you have a foundation, and it is not difficult to enter the showbiz. ”
Gu Che reached out and touched his face, thoughtfully, "But with my appearance, I can't get any good movies or TV series when I enter the showbiz, right?" ”
Wang Meng thought for a while before he heard Gu Che's potential meaning, and laughed: "Okay, you kid, others who are idols wish they could transform into actors, but you are good, but you dislike those movies or TV series that specialize in selling faces!" ”
Gu Che smiled slightly: "Director Wang, you also said that I am a Cantonese opera actor, if I really want to act, how can I compare to my achievements in Cantonese opera!" In a Cantonese opera, I am either the protagonist or the main supporting role, when I enter the entertainment industry, do you think I can climb to such an important position in the first place? ”
He paused, "Besides, acting in Cantonese opera is very emotional, and I prefer to listen to songs and take a break in my free time." ”
Wang Meng blurted out: "You can go to the entertainment industry!" ”
Gu Che shook his head: "That's boring." ”
He really thinks it's boring, it's okay to have a side hustle in the entertainment industry, he wants to be a serious Cantonese opera actor, even if he wants to change careers, he has to become a serious creator!
Although celebrities are glamorous and beautiful, they will also be criticized and questioned by many people.
Those artists with good-looking faces, they have no choice but to be a pure star or idol, but Gu Che is different, he has too many choices.
can also make money, earn the same money, why should he be a tiring star, living in the spotlight every day, and having to count by grain in order to maintain his figure?
It's so tiring.
When Wang Meng heard his answer, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, what others couldn't envy, he couldn't avoid it when he came to Gu Che.
But at the same time, he also felt that what Gu Che said was right.
There are so many directions to choose from, and you can make a lot of money, why choose a tiring star direction?
He agreed: "If everyone in the entertainment industry is as sober as you, we will save a lot of trouble!" ”
"We" made Gu Che's ears stand up, and Wang Meng suddenly made several phone calls in a row to find her, definitely not for pure chatting.
Soon, Wang Meng threw out his true intentions: "Are you interested in participating in a semi-music variety show and being a flying guest?" ”
Gu Che first asked, "When will you participate?" ”
Wang Meng praised it in his heart, this ability to grasp the key points is really strong, and he is worthy of being a candidate who he thinks is very suitable for the entertainment industry.
He said: "I'm in a hurry, I will record it in two days." ”
Gu Che calculated the time, and two days later it was Saturday, which happened to be a holiday, so he said, "Okay, I'll take it!" ”
Wang Meng was stunned, but he didn't expect Gu Che to answer without asking, so refreshing?
"Aren't you afraid that I will cheat you?"
Gu Che smiled: "Director Wang, if you really want to pit me, you will already pit me, why wait until now." ”
Wang Meng praised again, Gu Che's emotional intelligence is really high, and he is also very good at being a man!
He said with a smile: "Don't worry, this is a cross-continental variety show, I have analyzed it, you are very suitable to go up and take over the follow-up exposure of the singer-songwriter." As for the announcement fee, don't worry, it's just the price of your current traffic, and no one will ignore you! ”
Gu Che naturally believes in Wang Meng's character.
After making the call, he went to rehearsal the play, and by the way, he guided Gu Che to play Xu Xian's second actor.
After the busyness, it was already evening, and only then did I have time to flip through my phone to see the invitation sent by Wang Meng.
Luo Mingli and other senior brothers and sisters all followed Gu Che to eat together and heard about it.
Luo Mingli asked curiously: "Which cross-continent variety show is this, so anxious to find someone, it can't be that there is something wrong, right?" ”
Gu Che read out the name: "The show is called "The Summer of the Band", have you heard of it?" ”
This name aroused Gu Che's curiosity, is it a music variety show related to the band?
"Oh, the band, its popularity is a little lower than "I Am a Singer-Songwriter 3", and it is also a frequent visitor to the hot search, but the fans are very serious, the last time I saw the entries of this show on the blog hot search, they are all related to the contradictions of the contestants, this show is using this as a selling point!"
Luo Mingli has been chasing "I Am a Singer-Songwriter 3" all the time, and it is not uncommon to see other variety shows.
Kong Ping thought thoughtfully: "If that's the case, then I understand why Director Wang is looking for you to help you temporarily, I'm afraid it's because the guests who came here don't want to get involved in the tearing between the players." ”
He Huanying only noticed one thing, "Second only to the flow of singer-songwriters? That's good, it just so happened that Xiao Che's album was released and was on a variety show, maybe the gold record could rush to the platinum record. ”
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and Gu Che and the others were stunned.
Luo Mingli hurriedly took out his mobile phone and swiped the sales of Gu Che's album at this time, and now the sales are not as exaggerated as when they were first launched, exceeding one million copies in five hours, which has gradually slowed down, but it has also exceeded 150W.
He muttered to himself: "No, based on the data that the album rating is recorded for five years, this one is very likely to be platinum......"
Gu Che was also a little stunned, "The first chapter album is platinum"?
It's not that he doesn't dare to think about it, but this dream is a bit big......
It's as outrageous as being rated as a platinum writer for the first time when you write an article.
