Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Yang Di's signing with Fanxing Entertainment Group did not cause any disturbance. No reporter would be interested in a comedian with little fame, and Fanxing would not hold a signing ceremony for an artist of Yang Di's caliber.

So after the contract was signed, except for Yang Di's family and a few friends who were still able to chat, no one knew that Yang Di had signed with Fanxing Entertainment.

As for Yang Di's fainting during the recording of the program, no media reported it. Perhaps in the eyes of these reporters, Yang Di's fainting due to fever was not as newsworthy as those big stars sneezing casually.

Of course, for Yang Di, he felt that his life really changed from the signing.

First of all, when signing the contract, Ma Dong informed Yang Di that from the moment he signed the contract, he became a new regular guest of "Super Heart".

Although they are all guests, temporary guests and regular guests are completely different concepts for Yang Di. Temporary guests are like odd jobs. They are insecure day by day, which makes Yang Di live under great pressure every day.

But as a regular guest, he has a stable show to perform on, and his monthly income has finally stabilized. For a migrant worker in Beijing, this is what he has always dreamed of.

The key surprise for him is more than that. When he signed the contract, he just looked at the share and signed his name, but didn't pay much attention to the benefits.

It was only when Ma Dong mentioned it to him that he knew that signing with Fanxing Entertainment would have so many benefits.

For example, the company will provide him with a dormitory with a one-bedroom and one-living room of about 30 square meters, so that he no longer has to worry about whether the rent will increase next month, and he doesn't have to worry about being driven out by the landlord at any time and can't find a house to live in.

In addition, there are also food subsidies that Chen Jianzhou mentioned to him, and many subsidies. Although they are not much, they are not small when added together. What surprised Yang Di was that after signing with Fanxing, there was a basic salary. Although he could only get the lowest level, it was still 2,000 yuan.

Adding those subsidies, even if he did nothing for a month, he could earn more than 5,000 yuan.

"No wonder Fanxing doesn't sign artists casually. This treatment is too good." Yang Di looked at the contract left and right at night, and his eyes narrowed into slits with laughter.

Thinking about the dormitory he would be assigned tomorrow, thinking about the fixed guest seat he had already obtained, and the canteen filled with the aroma of food, Yang Di soon fell asleep.

But after Ma Dong sent Yang Di to the lounge, he did not rest immediately.

Signing Yang Di was not the end. He believed Nie Wei's words and believed that Yang Di would attract a wave of popularity after the show was broadcast, so he had to make Yang Di really famous under this wave of popularity.

Fanxing Entertainment never signed artists randomly, of course not because of what Yang Di thought, but just to save those little benefits. In fact, those benefits are not even a drop in the bucket in front of Fanxing's current ability to attract money.

The reason why Fanxing did not sign artists randomly was because Nie Wei and Ma Dong had an agreement since the beginning of the company's establishment, that is, as long as the artist was signed, he would be guaranteed to be popular.

Fanxing will not sign an artist and then ignore him. As long as the artist is signed by Fanxing, he must be taken care of by the company and must be famous. That is why all the artists who are signed by Fanxing are particularly loyal, because they can feel the company's attention, they can see the way forward for their development, and will not fall into confusion.

Since Yang Di has also joined Fanxing, Ma Dong will naturally consider him more. For the time being, it is to seize the opportunity in front of him.

The episode of "Super Heart" that Nie Wei participated in was finally broadcast a week later. After half a year, Nie Wei appeared in a variety show again. The ratings are conceivable and scary.

The original average ratings of this program were around 1.5. It is possible that the ratings of the episode that Nie Wei participated in were as high as 2.8 after the broadcast, which was almost double the average. The highest ratings during the broadcast of the program were also generated when Nie Wei spoke, as high as 5.23.

But what is even more surprising is that the second highest ratings peak of the whole episode did not occur in the segment of Nie Wei and Zhang Ziyi, but belonged to a less famous comedian.

This person is naturally Yang Di.

Yang Di became famous. Nie Wei's prediction was correct. He became famous after the show was broadcast, not because of his ability to make people laugh, but because of a sad and touching story.

He fell into the swimming pool and called for help. The lifeguard was only a few meters away from him. He was laughing at himself while drowning, especially the answer of the lifeguard at the end of the story when Yang Di questioned him.

Yang Di did not use humorous language when telling this story, but the real and ordinary things are the most touching.

Seeing Yang Di's helpless and sad smile at the end, and then when Ma Dong called him, he immediately recovered his state, like a clown. Many people found that they could no longer laugh after seeing this scene.

"The sadness behind the comedian, no one knows when he fell into the swimming pool and called for help, thinking that it was for effect."

"Who knows the sadness behind the glamour of the artist?"

"From Yang Di's perspective of the entire industry, there are many unknown hardships behind the shining stars."

After the show was broadcast, the media began to report this news.

Yang Di's story was like a fuse, which suddenly ignited the sadness behind the entertainment industry. Just when this news was popular, the official website of Fanxing Entertainment released a documentary video. The documentary video lasted more than two hours, and the content was all about the hard work behind the recording of variety shows.

The actors in this documentary are all well-known comedians, including all members of "Infinite Challenge", as well as variety show big names like He Jiong and Wang Han. In addition, there are many unknown behind-the-scenes staff.

Of course, in this documentary, Yang Di is still the most concerned.

In the whole documentary, Yang Di's share occupies nearly 20 minutes, recording his day.

Like getting up at four in the morning to wash, eat the remaining box lunch brought back from the program group last night, and then rush to the program recording site at six o'clock to wait, and can't return home until one o'clock in the morning of the next day.

During this process, Yang Di's energetic appearance in front of the camera and his exhausted expression behind the camera formed a most striking contrast.

There is also the sweat-soaked shirt hidden under the suit, and the bruises on the arms from playing games. Of course, what moved netizens the most was the video recording of the day when he and Nie Wei recorded the show together.

Yang Di insisted on recording for five hours, and the scene of fainting in the end was recorded by the camera. At this moment, it was edited into the documentary, which really made many netizens feel distressed.

"His face was pale, this must not be fake."

"He insisted on recording for five hours with a high fever of more than 39 degrees. I have watched that show. To be honest, if it weren't for this documentary, I really couldn't tell that Yang Di looked sick."

"It really makes people feel distressed. I used to hate him. I always felt that he was noisy in the show and wanted to get involved in everything. Now think about it, it's not easy for him."

The whole documentary is very plain, just a simple record of the daily life of a comedian, but the more so, the more it can touch the hearts of the audience. There is no misery to sell, but seeing a person who is always so energetic in front of the camera on weekdays, but so tired behind the camera, and even unwilling to say a word more.

This documentary really subverted the image of comedians in many viewers' minds.

The name of this documentary is also very interesting, called "You Are Not Really Happy", with the song of Mayday as the ending, many viewers even had tears in their eyes after watching it.

Yang Di became popular, and the number of followers on Weibo overnight, from less than 10,000 at the beginning, exceeded one million in just three days.

Invitations from major variety shows also continued to come, and some agents or agencies who knew Yang Di's situation wanted to sign Yang Di, but when they found Yang Di, they suddenly got an unfortunate news that Yang Di already had an agency.

The first one was Fanxing Entertainment Group under Nie Wei.

"Fanxing acted too quickly, didn't it?" Some agents sighed helplessly after knowing the news.

However, these people actually just wanted to give it a try. As early as when Yang Di appeared in the documentary, some smart people thought that this artist might have been signed by Fanxing.

After all, if there was no contract, how could Fanxing spend so much effort to promote him?

After knowing that Yang Di signed with Fanxing, everyone gave up. Fanxing has the best variety show resources in the circle. At the moment when variety shows are becoming more and more popular, Fanxing is almost the existence that every agency wants to befriend. No one is willing to be hostile to Fanxing for a small artist, not to mention that the other party has already signed. The success rate of poaching is not worth it.

Yang Di has been traveling around the country to record programs these days, and he has also felt the benefits of having a strong agency behind him.

He finally doesn't have to squeeze in a public lounge with a group of people. Many people have only two dressing tables, and everyone has to queue up to use them.

At this time, he can use a small lounge, be with those artists and guests who have already gained a certain reputation, and have a dressing table that belongs only to him. The company also assigned him a makeup artist, so he no longer has to wait in line.

On the show, the host is also willing to give him more opportunities to perform and take care of him.

He also had a meal with his idol, Mr. He, and met all the members of the Happy Family.

He also has a nanny car, which allows him to take a break on the way to his schedule. He no longer needs to contact the program team in person and haggle over the performance fee, because he has an agent, and all these will be left to the agent to negotiate. All he has to do is to build a good relationship with the host and the program team of each program.

After a few days, although he was busy and physically exhausted, he was in a particularly good spirit. Especially when he saw the numbers on his bank card rising rapidly, Yang Di became more motivated and felt that his future was bright.

Yang Di's work and life have undergone earth-shaking changes, but for Nie Wei, Yang Di's story is just a small episode. There are so many hard-working people in this circle, but Yang Di is very lucky. He happened to be met by Nie Wei and happened to perform well and was favored by Nie Wei.

But in fact, there are more artists in this circle like Yang Di who are struggling on the line of food and clothing. They live a precarious life, wandering in and out of the circle, and have never really integrated into this circle, or they are directly sunk...

Nie Wei is not a philanthropist, nor is he God, so naturally he can't manage so many people. However, because of Yang Di's matter, Nie Wei's sister Zhou Duoduo has been quite annoyed recently.

Because Zhou Aiguo always talked about Yang Di's matter to Zhou Duoduo after watching that documentary.

"The entertainment industry is not so easy to get into. Didn't you see how hard that guy was? No one saved him when he fell into the swimming pool, and they laughed at him. And you look at their work in a day, how tiring it is, much more tiring than going to work. If you take the entrance exam for a normal school and become a teacher, wouldn't it be easier than doing this job? And teachers are respected."

Thinking of the words Zhou Aiguo scolded her, Zhou Duoduo couldn't help rolling her eyes.

Because Zhou Duoduo felt that what her father said was unreasonable. Yang Di did reflect the sadness of many people at the bottom of the entertainment industry, but who is she? She is Zhou Duoduo, her brother is Nie Wei, and the path she wants to take is not the path of climbing from the bottom like Yang Di.

"Brother, go home and talk to our dad. Why doesn't he understand? I'm not going to be a comedian. I want to be an idol. He now thinks that I'm like Yang Di, who has to eat overnight lunch boxes and go through so much hardship..."

"Duoduo, even if you are an idol, it's not necessarily much easier than Yang Di. It's just that you have different starting points, and what uncle said is not all wrong." Nie Wei interrupted Zhou Duoduo and reminded her solemnly.

"Brother, of course I know." Zhou Duoduo was silent for a moment and replied.

"Okay, I'll go home and talk to uncle in a few days. In addition, you should also prepare. I'm going to send you to the company's practice room to be a trainee." Nie Wei thought about it and said.

Zhou Duoduo has been thinking about being an idol for a long time, but the idea seems a little naive. This time, Nie Wei really decided to throw her into the company's practice room for training for a while, at least let her feel the competitive atmosphere.

At least let Duoduo give up the idea that she can debut just by practicing casually.

"Brother, can I really go to your company as a trainee?" Zhou Duoduo didn't know what Nie Wei was thinking, and just thought that her brother was paving the way for her.

"That's right, but remember, if you come to our company as a trainee, you are not allowed to reveal your relationship with me, and you are not going to ask Luo Kai and others to help you. You will join our company as a trainee as an ordinary girl. Your rights and interests all depend on your own ability to fight for them."

Nie Wei's words surprised Zhou Duoduo a little, but she didn't think much about it. At this moment, she quickly immersed herself in the joy of being able to embark on the road of idol.
