Chapter Ninety-Seven: Liao Liao's New Album
This price code is indeed kind.
People can't be compared with people, companies can't be compared with companies, and the situation between regions and regions will be very different.
For example, as far as Li Qian knows, in the Hollywood film and television industry, the agent is called "Mr. 10 percent", which means that the agent directly takes 10 percent of the artist's income, and is accustomed to the conventions and standards of the entire market, but in the current country, because the entertainment industry has just started for one or two decades, it is not very developed, and it is not market-oriented and formalized enough, so every company has its own rules, and everyone has its own rules.
Like Liao Liao, she was a pure newcomer at the beginning, signed into Changsheng Records, a three-year brokerage contract, two record contracts, the record contract is divided according to sales, but the brokerage contract is directly 50% of the company's commission, and this brokerage contract still includes all Liao Liao's income except for the share income from record sales, such as endorsements, such as commercial performances.
On the Wuxing Wusu side, because it was just a simple cooperation, it was inevitable that others would think too much, Li Qian did not ask in detail, but after a little thought, it is not difficult to know that a large company like Hua Ge is facing a few newcomers who are not too outstanding in singing ability, and the conditions of the brokerage contract they signed are estimated to be inferior to Liao Liao.
But that's just because they were too weak when they signed the contract, once they became popular, it would definitely not be this price, for example, like Liao Liao, she is popular now, and when the contract expires, if Changsheng Records is like a contract renewal, she will definitely not dare to cut the flesh from Liao Liao so ruthlessly. And like He Runqing, according to Cao Zhan, after she became popular, she did not choose to renew her contract with Times Records, but jumped to Sony Records. Her new contract, in addition to the record contract, is that the company only takes 8% of the contract, and she also has her own exclusive agent, who has the right to take over commercial performances outside, as for the agent. It is said that only three percent.
At the end of the day, it's all about who needs whom!
The side that needs help more will definitely be at a disadvantage in the negotiations, or even have no say. The company is strong, and the singer needs the company's support. Then you have to admit it, the singer is popular, whether it is for the company or the agent, it is strong enough, then it occupies the initiative of bargaining - even so. Everyone still wants to be He Runqing's agent, because she has a large income base! Being an agent for others, the income is hundreds of thousands, one million a year, and if you take 10 percent, it will be 100,000 yuan, and being an agent for He Runqing is about 10 million a year, and 3 or 4 percent is also a large amount of income!
And with Li Qian's current situation, to be honest, even if he doesn't look for an agent, he just finds someone to be an assistant. It's enough, because he needs the agent to do it for himself, it's all things that are not technically difficult, basically everything with a big IQ and can be trusted by Li Qian can be done.
Therefore, the commission he can promise Qi Jie five points is purely kind!
You must know that with Li Qian's current fame and status in the circle, as long as he lets out what he wants to find an agent, he doesn't need five percent. Even if it's three or two percent, there will be a lot of experienced and capable agents who will take the initiative to come to apply for jobs!
And Qi Jie, for the position of agent, she is just an inexperienced newcomer!
About this. Of course Qi Jie didn't understand, but Liao Liao knew it in her heart, so at this time, after praising Li Qian, she quickly pulled Qi Jie's sleeve and said, "Stupid you." He is now a song of 200,000 yuan, and the album he made for Wuxing Wusu is estimated to be a big hit, and everyone in the circle says that he signed a stepped commission contract, once it is a big hit, it is estimated that he may be able to make millions of dollars, and then he will make an album for me, you calculate, how much does he earn a year? Sell cosmetics? How many bottles of cosmetics do you have to sell to be worth his 5 percent?"
Li Qian laughed when he heard this.
Qi Jie looked at Liao Liao, then turned his head to look at Li Qian, looking hesitant, and asked very unconfidently: "Do you think you ...... Can I do it? Don't listen to Liao Liao and follow her!"
Li Qian nodded and said: "Actually, what Sister Liao Liao said just now is very clear, it is really not difficult to be an agent for me, the key is that I trust you enough! So, see what you think! If you want to be an agent for me, I have been studying in recent years, and it is estimated that I will not be too busy, but I may be busy slowly in the future! But by that time, I have been doing it for several years, and you should have learned a lot, and you should have experience?"
Qi Jie turned her head and looked at Liao Liao again when she heard this--this matter was really a bit sudden and inexplicable for her, she didn't even understand what the agent was about, so she was going to be an agent for others...... Is it reliable?
Liao Liao also looked at her, and flew over with a wink, and said, "Baby, hundreds of thousands a year!
Qi Jie rolled her eyes at her, "Don't make trouble, as soon as you two talk and sing, you will push me here, I haven't figured out what the agent is going on! What if I can't do it? or delay Li Qian's matter, how can I count it?"
Liao Liao patted his brows helplessly, "Baby, you are too real! Please note that the truth here can be understood as stupid! I recommended you, and Li Qian also approved it, which means that we both think that you can definitely do a good job! You say, what else do you have to worry about?"
Qi Jie was still a little hesitant, turned her head to look at Li Qian again, and asked cautiously, "You estimate, how much will you earn next year?"
Li Qian smiled when he heard this, stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, thought about it very seriously, and said: "Next year, first, we want to see how the album of Wuxing Wusu sells, and second, I want to make this album for Liao Liao...... So, according to preliminary estimates, can there be about three to five million?"
Qi Jie blinked when she heard this, and for a while she couldn't count it in her mind, so she counted it on her fingers, and then her eyes suddenly widened, and her voice suddenly became much louder, "So, can I take fifteen to two hundred and fifty thousand from you?"
Liao Liao laughed twice, touched her with his elbow, blinked, and said, "Heartbeat?" The problem is, it is estimated that it will be higher in the future, listen to me, this is definitely a good job that countless people dream of!"
Qi Jie was indeed a little moved.
Money is actually only one aspect, even if she acts as an agent for a brand, as long as she does a good job, she is confident that she can have an income of one or two hundred thousand yuan in a year - this is a precedent, not wishful thinking, because the cosmetics retail industry is too profitable.
But the question is, once you become Li Qian's agent, will you be able to advance to the literary circle?
That's a bit ...... Slightly upscale!
Although I don't know anything about music, film and television, etc., I can't stand everyone from having a heart for literature and art - especially, as long as you nod, your employer is still Li Qian!
Whether he admits it or not, in fact, since he knew that the person singing on the roof of the building was Li Qian, Qi Jie had a good impression of his student, and when he learned that those songs were actually his own originals, this kind of good impression was naturally even worse. Otherwise, when Li Qian took out the check for 20,000 yuan, she would not have been angry like that in an instant.
Women, for talented men, have always lacked some control, if the man is still very handsome, then it is even more uncontrollable, although this kind of control may not all be the love of men and women, but subconsciously willing to get close, willing to give each other a chance, there is no doubt - the drama in the song of those ladies and famous prostitutes who fancy the down-and-out talent is not pure nonsense, it is based on a lot of facts.
At this time, Qi Jie hesitated for a long time and struggled for a long time, but finally couldn't bear his literary heart, looked up at Liao Liao, then at Li Qian, and said in a low voice: "Then or, I'll ...... first Try?"
Liao Liao clapped his hands, laughed without regard to the image, and said, "It's okay!"
Li Qian smiled and said, "Then you can try it first, if you are not happy about it, you can tell me at any time!" After speaking, he stood up, got up and walked to his bedroom.
Here, Liao Liao was already smiling and said, "Suddenly there's a little fun of being a matchmaker!"
Qi Jie was still stuck in the decision just now and didn't come back to it, so she didn't notice the ambiguity in Liao Liao's words, and before she could think about it, Li Qian had already walked back, handed her a note folded very smoothly, and said with a smile: "This should have been your first payment, and I have always kept it for you! Now you can accept it calmly, right?"
Qi Jie stretched out her hand to take it, unfolded it and took a look, and sure enough, it was the check she had thrown away in a ball.
Huayuan is 20,000 yuan.
She sighed, turned her head to look at Liao Liao, and looked a little suspicious, "Am I selling myself?
Liao Liao smiled and ignored her.
But Li Qian took over the conversation and said: "Now that you are in office, the first job I give you is to go back to Sister Liao Liao when she leaves, you go to Shuntian Mansion with her, and talk to Changsheng Records about the price of my next record for Sister Liao Liao!"
At the mention of this, Liao Liao suddenly came to his senses, "The price is easy to say, how much do you want, I can help you talk about it, the question is, what songs are you going to give me for the next album?"
Li Qian smiled and asked her, "What path do you want to take for your next album?"
Speaking of this, Liao Liao suddenly looked a little upright, she thought about it very seriously, and said: "I know that you are also very good at making fast songs, and the fast songs you wrote for that group, I listened to them, and they were all very good, but personally, I still don't like fast songs very much, so I still go lyrical and soft rock?"
After a pause, she asked, "Do you have any ideas?" (To be continued.) )
