Chapter 559 Brokerage
Although many celebrities at the party last night sent ambiguous invitations to Megan, Megan still returned to the small apartment she rented.

As if in a dream, after twelve o'clock the carriage turned back into a pumpkin, the horse turned into a mouse, and she herself became that Cinderella living in the corner of the city again, only the black dress in the closet told The truth of her matter.

Wake up, wash up, and get on with the preparations.Anyway, life goes on.The busy morning made her almost forget about the party last night.

"Megan, that man over there has been watching you."

Megan looked in the direction of White Brown's finger, a middle-aged Caucasian man in his 30s, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, meticulously combed, wearing a dark formal suit, beside him There was a black briefcase, and seeing Megan look over, she smiled at her.

"Hi, may I help you?" Megan handed the work to White Brown and walked up to the man. He didn't order any food or look at the menu, so he probably didn't come to eat.

"Hello, Miss Hart." The man gestured for Megan to sit down and said, "I'm Jim Robin from William Morris Agency. Here is my business card and my broker qualification certificate." Jim Robin After finishing speaking, Bin handed over his business card and certificate, with his name, position, and contact information on the front, and a glittering golden "WMA" LOGO on the back, which is the logo of William Morris Brokerage Company.

"Mr. Robin, hello." Megan Hart said with some doubts: "I am just a girl who has just stepped into Hollywood. Although I like acting and I am also learning acting. But I have never participated in any film and television. It’s unlikely that the WMA company will be able to watch the drama.”

"To tell you the truth, Miss Hart, I also attended the party at the Roosevelt Hotel last night. Miss Hart's beauty amazed the audience, but you didn't notice me at the time."

Megan said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Mr. Robin, there were too many people at the party last night, and it was the first time I participated in such a party, which shocked me too much."

Jim Robin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I have been paying attention to you last night. I found that you have the potential to become a high-quality actor. Although you have not participated in any films yet, this is exactly what you want Advantages, some directors just hope to select some new actors to star in the film, so as to bring freshness to the audience."

"Thank you, Mr. Robin." Megan thanked Jim Robin for his encouragement, but said to him calmly: "You have also seen my current situation, although Mr. Shen invited me to the party yesterday, but that is The relationship between the elders, I am just a young actor without any experience, I am afraid that I cannot afford the resource support cost of WMA company."

William Morris Brokerage Company is one of the three major brokerage companies in Hollywood. Their artists have a certain reputation and strength, and the brokers rely on 10% of the artist's income as a commission, so Hollywood brokers are also called "" Mr Ten Percent".But not everyone can sign a contract, especially a newcomer like Megan, every resource needs to be exchanged for benefits.For any newcomer in the initial stage, unless the agent is quite optimistic about you and helps you pay a certain fee, otherwise these fees will have to be paid by the artist himself.

Jim Robin said: "Miss Hart, you don't have to worry about this. I am different from other agents in the William Morris agency. I can serve you for free in advance. If you have an audition job, I can help you for free. If the cooperation is satisfactory, we are signing a contract, and as long as you become my artist, besides I will help you with resources, I can also reduce the commission by two points, and only charge you 8% of the commission, and it will be long-term."

"Ah, such a discount?" White Brown, who listened for a while, couldn't help exclaiming: "Mr. Robin, I'm also an actor, can I join your banner?"

"Sorry, our company is only interested in Miss Hart." Jim Robin declined White Brown's request.

Some of Jim Robin's words are actually not true. Although he holds the business card of the William Morris agency, he has left for more than two months.He felt discouraged because he brought in many newcomers in succession without success.He was at the party last night, but he was not one of the invited guests, but a paparazzi reporter who sneaked into the scene.He saw Megan introduced by Cup Shenfang to the directors and stars, and heard their invitation to audition for Megan.

After his initial judgment on Megan was a rich girl who wanted to play in the entertainment industry, after Megan danced with Leonardo DiCaprio, he was ready to open a room with the two of them. The photographs were then sold to the News of the World for a large manuscript fee.However, after the party, he found that Megan had left by herself, and after he followed him quietly, he discovered that this girl was really just an ordinary girl living in an ordinary apartment.

After returning to his residence and thinking about it all night, Jim Robin thought that his chance had come. Although he had resigned from the William Morris agency, his agency license was still valid, and if he really became Megan’s agent, Helping her get a few film invitations, she can return to the William Morris agency with the artist in her hand, and Megan also has Shen Fang, a world-class rich man, as a friend, which must be of incomparable help to her development.

Megan thought for a while, and said to Jim Robin: "Mr. Robin, since you said so, we can cooperate first. I have an audition this afternoon. You can appear as my temporary agent and let me see Look at your working ability, if everything is satisfactory, we will continue the next negotiation."

At the party yesterday, Megan received two audition invitations, among which Zack Schneider's audition was this afternoon. Megan was planning to call the actor to assign a temporary agent to help negotiate the contract if the audition was successful.Now with the appearance of Jim Robin, she saved this step even more.

Zack Schneider is going to audition for Megan as Mera in "Justice League", because Megan Hart, who was glamorous last night, is very suitable for the role of queen in his mind.But after he said it last night, he regretted it a little. Although the role of Mera appeared in "Justice League" for a short time, it can only be regarded as an extremely marginal character, but according to the plan made by Warner Bros. for DC Universe In "Aquaman", it is necessary to make a separate film, and in the film "Aquaman", Mera is the hard-working heroine.

Now that it has been said, and there were so many big-name directors present last night, Zack Schneider couldn't go back on his word, so he gave Megan Hart a chance to audition, at worst, let her wait for the notice.

When Megan followed the makeup artist to change clothes for styling, Jim Robin found Zack Snyder.

"Hi, Mr. Schneider, I'm Jim Robin from William Morris Agency, Miss Hart's agent." Jim Robin sent his business card again.

"William Morris Agency? Is Megan Hart an artist of your company?" Zach looked at the business card in his hand and asked the well-dressed man in front of him.

"Yes, Mr. Shen Fang is very concerned about Ms. Hart's acting career, and specifically asked our company to take care of her artist management work." Jim Robin withdrew Shen Fang's banner without hesitation. He also watched it yesterday To Shen Fang's care for Megan.

"Oh, I see." Zach Schneider came to the next office with some worries, and found his old partner Charles Rowan.

"Charles, what do you think we should do? We can find a way to deal with the face of Shen Fang, but now there is another William Morris agency. If we are offended, it will affect us a bit."

Charles Rowan said to Zach Schneider: "I just accepted an invitation from a film company in China, and I plan to be the producer of the film "The Great Wall" they co-produced with Legendary Pictures. As far as I know, Shen Mr. Fang is not just as simple as a rich man. He also owns the largest film and television company in China and the largest theater chain. So my suggestion is to give them face with this role, but only sign a film contract for one film. If the response is good, we are re-signing her in the film "Aquaman". If the response is not good, we can only keep a part of the scene when editing, and we will change the actors when shooting "Aquaman."

"Okay, just do as you said." Zack Schneider nodded.

After Megan Hart appeared in Mera's attire, Zack Schneider, who had adjusted his mentality, found that his feeling yesterday was right. Megan in a green tights completely showed Mera's perfect figure .

In the end, with the unanimous vote of directors Zack Schneider and Charles Rowan, Megan Hart got this crucial role, although it was only a marginal role.

In the ensuing contract negotiations, Jim Robin showed his qualities as a qualified agent. Without hesitation, he raised the banner of Shen Fang and William Morris and helped Megan get 20 USD remuneration.

Coming out of the studio of Warner Bros., Megan expressed her gratitude to Jim Robin, recognized his professionalism, agreed to sign a personal agency contract to Jim Robin, and hired him as her agent.

In this way, Megan Hart got the first role in her life and took the most important step.Jim Robin also returned to the William Morris Agency with the agency contract with Megan Hart.And through the company, he helped Megan win one of the roles in another comedy movie "Neighbor Wars 2: Rise of the Sisterhood", and Megan Hart's acting career officially started.
