One day, he set an appointment to meet up with an Executive of a management company EM. CH wanted to be managed by EM's firm thinking that it would help in his image if he'll be identified with the agency.
When he got to EM's place and while walking along the corridor of the huge office, CH was his usual bubbly and confident self. He engaged the staff for small talk while waiting for the EM who happened to be attending to some visitors. As soon as the visitors had left, CH immediately went inside the top honchos's office and with both arms outstretched, he very confidently proclaimed himself to the EM and exclaimed, "Boss ***, i-manage mo ko!"
The boss who was sitting on his desk was taken aback, stared at him from head to toe and answered in big tone," Who are you? I don't know you!"
CH was so shocked and embarrassed, he obviously didn't see it coming. He was caught off-guard by the EM's "brutality."
Sounds quite unbelievable that there are industry people who don't know CH at all. Apparently, it was learned that owing to EM's very busy schedule, there was no way he would know CH since he seldom watches television, if at all, only those that concern his production and talents. And unlike his colleagues, EM does not socialize much and move in the same circle as CH.
The experience is a lesson in miscalculation, a humbling one for CH. Just because you think you're popular, do not assume that anything that moves knows you.
