Chapter 21: The Pitfalls in the Contract (Part II)

Liu Ruoyi was dumbfounded when she heard it, she had never had in-depth contact with the entertainment industry in her previous life and present life, and she couldn't imagine that the water was so deep here, according to Li Jingyao, this is no different from the deed of sale, if you don't know it, you don't know if you have been sold.

"Therefore, this kind of contract cannot be signed, this kind of is to deceive those young people who are not deeply involved in the world, and they may sign it as soon as the company pushes and has a high guarantee mind, thinking that it is not too late to terminate the contract when it is popular, but where is it so simple for these companies to do things, a lawsuit drags you two for three years, and you will not be allowed to do any performance for three years, and no matter how popular it is, it will drag yellow. ”

"Teacher, in this way, a company like Longteng Culture itself has no sincerity, so there is no need for us to continue talking. Liu Ruoyi directly sentenced the company to death.

"Yes, this company does not have a good reputation in the industry, and it has always been harsh on newcomers. Li Jingyao nodded.

"Is it more suitable for me to sign a singing contract alone?" Liu Ruoyi took out another contract and asked, "This company signs a 5-year singing contract, with a minimum guarantee of 200,000 yuan, and the artist is divided into 4 percent, with at least one album per year and at least 10 concerts." ”

In fact, Liu Ruoyi is very optimistic about this contract, with the least restrictive clauses, relatively more free, after becoming famous, the income from the advertising contract will all belong to herself, in contrast, the guarantee and singing share are not important, Liu Ruoyi knows that if she can be popular in the future, the advertising contract will definitely be stronger than anything else, think about Fan Whatye, AB and the like, just find a way to hype up the popularity value, singing, acting or anything is not important, just sell cute, beautify and P pictures!

"No," Li Jingyao shook his head, "I haven't heard much of Tianhe Media, and there are no stars under the introduction, and it is estimated that the strength is limited, this kind of company can't afford to spend money on cultivating newcomers, and of course they can't sign stars. ”

"You see they barely mentioned any publicity expenses, as I said earlier, the production cost and publicity cost of an album are about 2 million, but when it comes to operation, they generally don't shoot MVs, just the production cost of recording and recording records, about five or six hundred thousand is about the same, the bulk is actually the publicity and promotion costs, printing beautiful posters, advertisements, hitting charts, It costs money to buy media, and there is almost no upper limit, more than one million is just a basic number, you look at the diva-level publicity, people are at least tens of millions of level promotion. ”

Liu Ruoyi gasped, it seems that she thought that she could come up with a few golden songs and become popular was a little too naïve, this time is not the time when the Internet is popular, personal media is born, and small videos are flying all over the sky, which means that the traditional way is still the dominant power, no one praises it, there is no money to burn, and if you want to become popular, it is really not just a matter of talking.

is mixed in the entertainment industry, and now it seems that he doesn't understand anything except the advantage of being able to copy songs and sing.

is really ignorant and fearless, fortunately, he is quite stable, and he did not rush into the entertainment industry.

"Then according to the teacher, which company's conditions and plans are more suitable for me?" Liu Ruoyi asked sincerely.

I don't understand, let the professionals come to the staff, in the previous life to do investment banking report analysis, in fact, it has always been this way of thinking, back to this era, in the early stage almost thought that he had a prescient vision, he could do whatever he wanted, now it seems that he is not professional, or he can't pretend to understand, otherwise he will suffer in the end.

"If you look at these companies, I think this plan is suitable for you. Li Jingyao is also aware of his situation as a student, and he is basically a blank slate for some gameplay and cognition in the entertainment industry.

"You see what it gives you is a growth contract, although it is also a full performance contract, but it gives a better sharing conditions and training plan, the contract period is 7 years, divided into the first three years of the company and you 73 open, the early stage of the company accounts for 70% of the income, considering that the early stage is mainly the investment stage, the company should be in publicity, Packaging and performing arts training and other aspects of investment, this share is also very reasonable, after four years of fifty-fifty shares, this stage is normally your peak income, the artist can get half of the income, I think it's not bad, after all, the company also has to make money, many star long-term contracts are basically operated in accordance with this model, only a very mature contract is full of big stars, when they re-sign the contract, it is possible to get more than seven three open income, that is, the artist takes the big head model, because at this time mainly rely on the celebrity fame to eat, the star has a high income, the company invests relatively little, and the small head also has to be earned。 ”

"Of course, the more important thing is that the major shareholder of this company is Universal Music, there is no doubt about the strength behind it, and it has created many top stars, and the company in China is now developing very strongly, and there are potential artists everywhere to polish, I think this contract is basically tailored to your personal conditions, you have good appearance conditions, excellent voice, and have the potential to become a top star more than ordinary contestants, I believe that this contract should not be received by anyone in other champions of this Youth Song Competition, including the champion of the professional group。 ”

Liu Ruoyi took the plan of Xinsuo Media, with a signing fee of 100,000 yuan, and a guaranteed income of 200,000 yuan per year during the signing period. The details of acting training and other details seem to be very attentive and sincere, and it is also the most detailed training plan among all company contracts.

Liu Ruoyi couldn't help but nodded, if Li Jingyao didn't make it clear about the joints behind these contracts, she might feel that the terms of this contract were average, the income guarantee was the least among the few, and the artist training plan was the hardest.

In addition, the character design of this contract is different from Liu Ruoyi's own design, according to the above arrangement, Liu Ruoyi will drop out of school to engage in acting full-time, and Liu Ruoyi feels that it is better for her to debut as a campus singer.

If you win the championship of the Youth Song Competition, you can now negotiate with the school, and when you return to the campus to catch up with the academic exam, you can successfully get the school diploma.

Although there are many people in the entertainment industry who have very low academic qualifications, it seems that diplomas are useless, but since she has the opportunity to improve her academic qualifications, Liu Ruoyi feels that she can't give up easily.

After all, Gimhae University is also a pretty good famous university, and it's really not worth it to lose this business card easily, not to mention that according to Liu Ruoyi's plan, the future will not rely on acting for the rest of her life, and when the songs in her mind are hollowed out, I am afraid there will not be many advantages.

At the right time in the future, Liu Ruoyi will cross over into other industries, at that time, a good academic degree is quite important, although the hero does not ask the source, but in the previous life engaged in investment banking for many years, Liu Ruoyi has long understood the importance of origin and circle, the same venture capital case, if the founder is a high-achieving student from Qingbei, the valuation is double that of the founder from the general university, that is less, if you are from a university, sorry, I will see you when you work ten times better than others!

At this moment, Liu Ruoyi is not an ignorant girl in her 20s from the soul level, and her vision is naturally more long-term than that of ordinary little girls.
