Chapter 249 Renewal Conditions

"Xiao Luo, just talking about signing a contract, I would like to take this opportunity to ask you what you think, can you continue to sign a contract with Warner?"

Zhou Jianhui is still thinking about the timing of mentioning this stubble, whether it is better to mention it at the dinner table or when everyone is chatting after the meal. Coincidentally, Xie Bing mentioned the signing of the contract, which made Zhou Jianhui very happy, and this was the most appropriate opportunity.

After Xie Bing and Ye Luo finished speaking, Zhou Jianhui threw out the matter of renewing the contract, and then looked at Ye Luo with a look of hope. Don't look sure in your heart, but when it comes to the real chapter, you are also afraid that Ye Luo will commit a donkey. Ye Luo is a genius in the eyes of Zhou Jianhui and many people, so he can't live with ordinary people's thoughts.

It's a pity that Zhou Jianhui thinks of Ye Luo too well, this girl relies on cheating, and she is still a mortal in essence, a little better than ordinary people, but it's just a little bit.

"Oh, this! Speaking of contracts, I have to thank Uncle Hui, you were the one who signed me to the company at the beginning, and you can be called my Bole. Three years at Warner is also very good, and the distribution of benefits is also very reasonable. Seriously, I like this company very much. But—"

Zhou Jianhui's face was a little pale, this is a rhythm that wants to be suppressed first, and below, Zhou Jianhui is a little afraid to think about it.

"First of all, I am ready to renew my Warner contract, but Uncle Hui, you also know that my current fee is not low. It's not that no one from outside companies has come to talk to me, it's just that Warner has raised me, so I've always wanted to see what the conditions are like here. ”

Seeing that Zhou Jianhui's face is not good-looking, Ye Luo is no longer good at hanging people's appetites, so he directly said his plan straight to the point, that is, if he gave it low, then he can't blame me for jumping ship.

"You said the signing conditions, alas, I said it earlier! Come on a big pant, so that people can't go up and down. ”

Zhou Jianhui's face immediately turned cloudy and clear, as long as Ye Luo agreed to renew the contract, there was no problem. You must know that Ye Luo is a gold mountain, so it is just mined. The headquarters has given Zhou Jianhui the greatest authority, as long as it is not too much, everything is up to Ye Luo.

"Xiao Luo, can you reveal which of the other four major records gives you the best conditions?"

"Sony, two hundred million!"

"That's too little, isn't it?"

Zhou Jianhui despises it very much, this little Japan is too small, Ye Luo can earn back the signing fee with an album and be twice as rich.

"It's dollars!"

"Ahh

"Shhhh

Many people gasped and were so surprised.

I have to say that sometimes Little Japan is very bold, Ye Luo was shocked when he heard this price, but when he thought about the best-selling degree of his album, he took it for granted.

In '92, Madonna signed with Warner for $60 million, but her album sales were far less than Yelo's. However, this is only the quantity, but also the price factor, the price of albums in Europe and the United States is much higher than the price in China, and the profit is naturally high.

But now Ye Luo's albums have also begun to be sold worldwide, and there is also a large market in Europe and the United States, and many Chinese people are buying his albums. So $200 million is really not very high, and the reason why everyone is surprised is because no one has ever had such a high level before.

"That's not very high!"

Zhou Jianhui calculated it and felt that this was not a very high price, Ye Luo has now earned nearly 200 million US dollars for the company in Japan and South Korea alone, and this is still without a concert, so this price is naturally not very much.

Speaking of signing fees, to popularize it, this is not directly given to singers for nothing. Rather, it is an advance payment, and the company estimates how much money the singer can earn after signing the contract according to the popularity of the singer, and then adds or subtracts more or less on this basis.

The final result is the signing fee, which belongs to the advance payment to the singer, that is, to give you the money, then the money you earn will be transferred to the company's account first, until one day when the singer earns more money than the signing fee, you can continue to share the profit.

Otherwise, you can only get the money once from the company, which is this signing fee. Otherwise, who would give so much money for nothing, it's because people think you can earn it back and earn more.

The reason why Ye Luo didn't have this was because he didn't have a signing fee at all, so every time he released an album, Zhou Jianhui would give him funds on time. If there is a signing fee, then the company will only consider sharing dividends with you after earning back the money that was given to you at the beginning.

Therefore, the signing fee often sounds high and scary to death, but in fact it is just a gimmick, and even the numbers are often exaggerated. In addition, the signing fee may not be paid in full at once, and is often paid in installments. Some will pay the money in many installments and how long it will take.

This is a sale of money, the singer sells his rights to the company, and what he sells is the singer's youth.

Ye Luo can now sell one or two albums for a profit of 200 million US dollars, so Zhou Jianhui feels that Little Japan is still stingy, and if he were him, he could shout 400 million.

"That's what the company thinks, Xiao Luo! This time it's still the same as last time, there is no signing fee, but it will give you a sum of money directly, the money to stay in the company! What do you think? ”

"How many?"

In business, this is not the time to talk about feelings.

"Five million dollars! It's seven three, what do you think? ”

Seventy-three? It's a little low! If Ye Luo signs a contract with another company, he can take eighty percent. After thinking about it, Ye Luo understood that the 30 million US dollars were bought by the company, and if they dared to spend such a large capital, they thought that the 10 percent they bought was more than 50 million US dollars.

Since the company wants to exchange the money for a share, Ye Luo naturally can't share more. And Ye Luo likes this way, it's always better to have cash, with money, you can invest, so even if you lose a little, you can earn back on investment.

"Sixty million dollars, seventy-three!"

"Yes! But the company wants a five-year contract! ”

"That's 100 million!"

"Uh, isn't it less?"

Zhou Jianhui is a little confused, although it is proportionally 100 million, but it cannot be calculated proportionally, the bottom line given by Warner headquarters is no more than 120 million, and it has not yet arrived. Zhou Jianhui and Ye Luo have a good relationship, so naturally they can't let Ye Luo suffer!

He can't get much money left, so it's better to give it to Ye Luo!

"There are two conditions attached."

"What?"

"I hope the company can give me some audition opportunities, I'm ready to go to Hollywood! Second, I hope that in the distribution of the film, the company can cooperate with the Phantom. ”

"Xiao Luo, you have to think about it, Hollywood is not so easy to break into."

Zhou Jianhui has been mixed for many years, so he naturally knows the difficulties of Hollywood actors, and he can't just look at the big names on the surface, many small stars are very difficult. And Asian actors have the hardest time getting out in Hollywood, so he doesn't want Ye Luo to choose this path.

"Yes, Xiao Luo! You have to think twice, it's better to take the money! ”

Xu Xiaofeng also felt that this was unreliable, and the latter one could be regarded as having some ideas, but it was just an idea. It is easy to see that Ye Luo wants to distribute the films made by Phantom to Europe and the United States through Warner, but Asian movies are inherently not suitable for Western tastes, and even if they are released, the box office is pitiful.

"I've figured it out! Don't persuade Uncle Hui! Do you think it will be possible? ”

"No problem! I can call the shots! ”

Although records and film and television are two subsidiaries of different genera, there is no problem with the audition opportunity, and it is not a guarantee that you can act, a few favors. Even if it costs money, it is also a small amount of money, and the headquarters will not be short-sighted and unable to see this problem.

"Interesting Xiao Luo, when will you sign the contract?"

Zhou Jianhui is anxious! This boiled duck can't fly, so it's better to eat it as soon as possible.

"You're good to go! What's wrong, Sister Bing? Eat vegetables! ”

Ye Luo turned his head to look at Xie Bing at this time, and found that this person was looking at him dumbfounded, and the chopsticks were still in the air!

"100 million?"

"That's right!"

"Or dollars?"

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"Nothing"

Looking at Ye Luoyun's light breeze, Xie Bing suddenly felt that he and Ye Luo were people of two worlds, and they couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all! For her, let alone 100 million US dollars, let alone 100 million yuan, even 100 million yen is a huge, unattainable sky-high number!
