On the sofa, Fang Jing looked tired. He had worked hard to make money during this period. He took on commercial performances day and night. When he was tired, he slept three or four hours a day and traveled to more than a dozen cities to earn 10 million.
Fortunately, I am not dependent on a brokerage company now, otherwise I would get half of the salary and would have to work for a month.
"Fang Jing, can you really make back your ten million yuan?" Behind the desk, Yang Ning lazily leaned on the back of the chair, crossing her legs.
"If nothing happens, I can make money."
In the previous life, The Return of the Great Sage raised 60 million from 78 production companies, as well as 3 million from 800 people online.
With a box office of one billion, Fang Jing doesn’t know how much the 78 companies earned, but the final dividends of those 800 people were five times the investment.
The reason why Fang Jing didn't dare to be 100% sure was that he was afraid of the butterfly effect, because his arrival would disrupt the original trajectory.
…
November is over, and December has just begun. Within a few days, Fang Jing received a New Year's Eve invitation from Magic City TV, with an appearance fee of one million, which is much higher than last year.
At the same time, Hunan Satellite TV also extended an olive branch and invited him to participate in the New Year's Eve. The appearance fee was 1.6 million. He was worthy of being the big brother in the TV station and had a lot of money.
"Teacher He, I'm sorry, I can't go this year. My agent has promised to go to Shanghai TV. I'm sorry, but I will definitely come next time I have the chance."
After hanging up the phone, Fang Jing sighed. He will participate in the Extreme Challenge of Shanghai TV next year, so he has to give him face.
If he could choose, he would rather choose Shonan Satellite TV, where both exposure and ratings and remuneration are higher.
I looked up at the ceiling, feeling in a daze. Before I knew it, another year had passed!
At this time last year, I was still running around doing business shows and helping people host weddings and full moons. Now I still have weddings and birthdays. There is no difference, but the appearance fee is more.
"Why are you laughing?" Seeing Fang Jing suddenly burst into laughter, Yang Ning asked.
"Nothing, just a little emotional." Fang Jing stood up and picked up his coat, "I'm going to Nanjing for a meeting, I'll leave this to you."
Yang Ning rolled her eyes: "It sounds like you have no business with this?"
When I came to Nanjing again, the weather turned cooler. The 4- to 5-degree weather had already made the children on the streets hide at home and watch TV.
The staff in the company have already put on cotton-padded clothes, the props and scenery in Hengdian have been completed, all the costumes needed for the play have left the factory, Lu Xing's martial arts routines have been designed, everything is ready, all that is left is the east wind.
Ying Haoming in a black down jacket and Zhang Mingen in a woolen coat were chatting in an empty lounge. They were here to discuss signing a contract.
Seeing Fang Jing coming in from the door, the two of them smiled and nodded.
With a polite wave, Fang Jing entered Xu Shi's office instead of passing by.
"Here, let's take a look at the contract!" Xu Shi handed Fang Jing the drafted contract. There were two copies in total, each one different.
Ying Haoming is an old man. He has not been popular for ten years since his debut. He has been wandering in the third line. There is little chance of becoming popular in the future. He was given an ordinary agency contract for seven years, one drama per year, and a male supporting role.
Zhang Mingen is young, has good looks, and will still have a chance to become popular in the future. Although it is an ordinary contract, it only lasts for two years and has relatively large resources.
It depends on the situation after two years. If you are successful, you will switch to the share-sharing model. If you are not successful, you will continue to sign the normal mode, or you will give up.
After watching for five minutes, Fang Jing smiled and said, "You chose Ying Haoming yourself, so you have no confidence in him?"
"It's not that I don't have confidence, the market is different, and the acceptance of young audiences is different." Xu Shi smiled bitterly: "It's not that there are late bloomers, but the right time, the right place and the right people are indispensable. It's too difficult."
"I asked Xiao Wenjing, and he said that Ying Haoming will be in the second line in the future and can only play supporting roles. This is because of his good acting skills."
Fang Jing tapped the table lightly, and after a while Fang Jing said in a deep voice: "Give me a chance, the same goes for both of you. We'll see what happens in two years."
"But the company doesn't have so much drama? It can't afford to support two people."
Nanjing is only in the development stage now. There is no tomorrow but today. It is already the limit to be able to raise one Zhang Mingen. It will be too difficult to add another person.
"It's okay. If you put Ying Haoming and Ying Haoming under the name of my studio, you can make two movies a year."
"Okay, this is what you said, don't complain when the time comes."
Xu Shi was happy to give people to Fang Jing. Fang Jing was always busy filming, and there were many invitations to variety shows, but he didn't want to go. With so many resources, it was not a big problem to support himself.
"Call the agent first! Let's allocate candidates."
Opening the door, Xu Shi stuck his head out and called out. Xiao Wenjing, who had been waiting for a long time, came in with another girl in her mid-20s.
Fang Jing frowned. Is this agent a bit young? He just graduated from college, right?
Xu Shi rubbed his nose in embarrassment, "Despite her young age, she is quite strong and knows the law very well. She has been an intern at Sister Hua's for a year, so she is not considered a newcomer."
There was something Xu Shi didn't say. After choosing, this one was the cheapest. Yang Ning chose the person according to their requirements. The salary of 8,000 a month was only for an agent of this rank.
Those senior agents who have been on the front line for more than five years or more than ten years start with hundreds of thousands or millions a year, which is really unaffordable.
"Hello, Mr. Fang, my name is Zhao Fuling. I am a new agent. If there is anything I do wrong in the future, please feel free to give me some advice."
Wearing an old-school attire with a long buttoned windbreaker, Zhao Fuling, who is in her twenties, looks much more mature.
"Okay! Sit down, have you decided which artist to bring?"
"No, everything is up to the company's arrangements."
Fang Jing looked at Xiao Wenjing: "Which one do you want to choose?"
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that Zhang Mingen has great potential and it would be best to lead him.
Xiao Wenjing has worked as Chen Haibo's assistant, Fang Jing's assistant and publicity assistant, and has some connections over the years. In terms of strength, Zhang Ming'en is the best one. Xu Shi also thinks the same.
But Fang Jing didn't speak, so it was difficult for him to make a decision.
Before Xiao Wenjing could speak, Fang Jing continued: "Actually, it's the same no matter who you choose. At least there is no difference for now. They both have their own advantages and disadvantages."
"I just discussed with Mr. Xu, Ying Haoming and Zhang Mingen signed the same contract."
"Then I choose Ying Haoming!" Xiao Wenjing said.
Zhao Fuling smiled and said: "In this case, I can only choose Zhang Mingen."
Fang Jing picked up Zhang Mingen's contract and gave it to Zhao Fuling: "Take it and sign it for him. Xiao Wenjing will type another one later."
"Okay, Mr. Fang! I'll go out first."
Gently closing the office door, Zhao Fuling walked up to Zhang Mingen and said, "Let's go, I will be your agent from now on, let's sign the contract first."
"Thanks!"
After patting Ying Haoming on the shoulder, Zhang Mingen followed and left.
"The company can't support so many people. From now on, Ying Haoming will be the name of my studio." In the office, Fang Jing said to Xiao Wenjing: "You have to coordinate the work on both sides, it may be a bit hard."
"Mr. Fang means that Ying Haoming can take on both jobs?"
"Yeah! But I'm here to be the assistant, and here is the master. Don't put the cart before the horse." Fang Jing was afraid that Xiao Wenjing would come to visit if something happened, so Fang Jing got vaccinated in advance.
