Section 957 Signing of two mountain ranges

Li Jingyuan deliberately cooperated with Jiang Hudong and Liu Zaishi's itinerary to choose a date, and took advantage of the free time of the two to make an appointment with them.

Before signing the contract, the three of them were pure friends, and Li Jingyuan was just a little brother compared to Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong.

And when the contract is signed, the relationship will change somewhat. Although Li Jingyuan is not very in charge, he can't completely ignore his identity as a boss.

I don't want the two eldest brothers to change their attitudes when they get along with them because of the change in identity, and it is also to make them feel their sincerity, so Li Jingyuan deliberately chose an 'away' environment to negotiate a new contract with the two.

There was no itinerary, after receiving the call, Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong came directly from home, although the two of them lived in the same area, but the two still rushed to the front and back, almost at the same time arrived at the store.

"Jing Yuan, you asked us to come out, do you want to negotiate a contract?" After asking the clerk, Jiang Hudong directly took Liu Zaishi to the box where Li Jingyuan was, and after seeing him, he immediately asked directly.

If it was in normal times, this big brother would definitely have to chat a few words first, and the main thing is to eat and chat after the food is served. But now, because Li Jingyuan may become his own boss, Jiang Hudong's thoughts are a little restrained, and his speech is not as bold as usual, but a little stiff.

"Brother Hudong, don't be so anxious, it's like usual, this sudden change of breath, why does it make me feel so awkward?" Hearing that Jiang Hudong's mood was a little different from the past, Li Jingyuan understood the eldest brother's thoughts, and in order to relieve the pressure in his heart, Li Jingyuan laughed first: "Hehe, although I want to negotiate a contract, but in the end, it's still me, the younger brother, who is begging the two eldest brothers." Brother Hudong, you don't need to be so nervous at all. ”

First of all, he expressed his attitude, and Li Jingyuan's words made Jiang Hudong's mood a lot easier.

"That's right, wait a minute, I'll let them get some food. Let's talk while we eat. Scratched his head. Jiang Hudong laughed at this time, then opened the boxes, called a waiter to give a few words, and then returned to his position and sat down.

"Yes. While the things haven't come yet, brothers take a look at the proposal that our company has come up with, and if you are not satisfied, just say, and we will talk while eating later. Nodding, Li Jingyuan did not waste time. directly took out two materials from his bag and handed them to Jiang Hudong and Liu Zaishi.

Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong are known as the 'two mountain ranges', and they both have the title of 'national MC', and their status in the circle is almost the same. This is not only unanimously recognized by outsiders, but also by themselves as their only opponents.

Considering this, the contract prepared by Li Jingyuan for the two is of the same grade, and the treatment and benefits are exactly the same, but there will be some small differences in some details.

"What does this 'S' class mean?" Turning the first page of the contract, I saw an 'S' mark in a prominent position. Somewhat incomprehensible, Liu Zaishi asked Li Jingyuan.

"Oh, this 's' is a rating for the two older brothers." Li Jingyuan stretched out his head and glanced at it, and then immediately explained: "There are many artists in the company, in order to facilitate management. We privately divided everyone into levels, such as Gao Xianzhen, the eldest sister who signed into the company some time ago, and her contract is A+ level. And above the A+ level, it is the S level that the brothers have now gotten. ”

"You mean. The two of us are bigger cards than Gao Xianzhen?? Hearing Li Jingyuan say this, Jiang Hudong and Liu Zaishi were a little surprised. I couldn't help but ask again.

Although Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong both know that they are very famous, because of the unwritten unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, they still inevitably have some inferiority complex, and they don't think that they are stronger than big-name actors.

"How do you grade them? In terms of income, the benefits we can bring to the company should not be as good as the actors, right? Liu Zaishi's mind was more delicate, and he immediately began to analyze: "Although the two of us have a lot of work, it is difficult for us to receive advertising endorsements, and the ability to make money alone should be stronger than the actors, right?" Don't you rank artists according to their earning power? ”

"It's really hard to explain." Hearing Liu Zaishi's question, Li Jingyuan first shook his head and made an embarrassed expression, and then said: "It's impossible to make it clear right away, there are too many standards in it, but since Brother Shi asked, then I'll explain it a little." ”

"Whether it can bring revenue to the company is an extremely important criterion, but it is not the only reference criterion. In addition to the ability to make money, what we value more here is the influence of artists. ”

"The two elder brothers should also know that in the polls in recent years, your influence on the people has ranked in the top ten, and even more 'face' than the president, for the sake of this influence, so the company's management gave the two an S grade."

"In addition to influence, it also depends on the personality of the individual. The more artists who can promote their juniors, the higher the rating. ”

"In this ability, the two elder brothers are undoubtedly the strongest. Although actors can also promote their juniors, they will not have too many opportunities except for the opportunity to cooperate in the same TV series or movie, even if they want to take care of their juniors. In comparison, the two brothers have always been active in the variety show industry, and there are too many opportunities to take care of their juniors. ”

"My brothers have always been warm-hearted, no matter which company people go to participate in the show, you will take good care of them, not to mention the juniors in your own company. This is also one of the reasons why my brothers are rated S-class. ”

"There are other reasons that would be too much trouble to talk about. Actually, I don't think my brothers need to worry too much, that's a good thing, isn't it? ”

Li Jingyuan's words were very truthful, and Jiang Hudong and Liu Zaishi both nodded after hearing it: "Indeed, there is no need to think too much, just know that it is a good thing." By the way, Jing Yuan, what's the matter with the share ratio in your contract? ”

Pointing to the most important piece of the contract, Liu Zaishi's expression was a little surprised, not dissatisfied. It's that the treatment is too good, which makes him a little unbelievable.

'There is only a 5% commission for the appearance fee...... you don't need to look at the rest of it, as long as you see this sentence, it is already very surprising.

Even in Europe and the United States, the minimum commission of brokers will be maintained at about 10%. And in South Korea. The minimum percentage of a broker or brokerage company is around 50%. A darker company will even take away eight to ninety percent of the artist's income, leaving only one-tenth of the artist's income for the artist himself.

In contrast, Liu Zaishi's 'five percent' commission ratio in front of Jiang Hudong is really too exaggerated. It's more low than they think.

"Is this the percentage of the commission in your company?" Jiang Hudong also turned to this page, and after reading it, he was shocked like Liu Zaishi.

"No, no, since the brothers are S-class, of course they have to be treated specially. Just sign the two brothers into the company. It's already considered that we've earned it, and it's not a big deal to take a cut or something, and the five percent is just a symbolic meaning. ”

"In fact, in our company, the contracts of artists are relatively relaxed, even if it is the lowest level of ordinary contracts, the percentage of commission will not exceed half."

The more he listened, the more incomprehensible he became, and Liu Zaishi couldn't help but ask again: "Then what is the economic source of your company?" Is it your personal investment? ”

Liu Zaishi's question doesn't seem to have anything to do with today's events, but when you think about it seriously, it's a question that you can't help but ask.

Relying on Li Jingyuan's investment alone. Of course, the company can be maintained, but the reverse is also true, as soon as he siphons out the funds, the company will immediately go out of business.

Whether it will go out of business or not is all in Li Jingyuan's thoughts. It's just too unstable. If they don't understand this, Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong naturally can't rest assured, after all, the first condition for them to sign a new company now is to be 'stable'.

"Of course not, hehe. In Brother Shi, you are not the first person to ask this. I know what you're worried about. After smiling, Li Jingyuan explained: "The company's main income does not come from commissions, but from investment. The so-called investment does not refer to investing in TV dramas or anything, but refers to those ordinary financial investments. ”

"Even though we only take a 5 percent commission, you can still keep the extra money in the company as much as you want. Then, the company will work with another investment company under my name to invest the money that has been saved. ”

"You also know my ability, these investments are not likely to lose money at all, just make more and earn less. The company will not monopolize the money earned from the investment, and will still share it with the artists in a certain proportion. ”

"In other words, in addition to the basic performance income, your spare money can also grow after investment. Maybe it's nothing for a high-income artist like you, but for those artists in the company who are not well-known and don't have much income, this is a good source of income. ”

"For example, if you hand over 100 million yuan to the company in Brother Shi, and the company invests this 100 million, and gets 200 million with interest, then in Brother Shi, you will get 150 million, and the company will get another 50 million. In this way, your income in Brother Shi will increase by half, which is far more cost-effective than storing in the bank, and the company will also obtain working capital, and finally get a win-win result. ”

I've never eaten pork, so I've never seen a pig run. Although they don't know much about finance, Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong have also heard and watched a lot of similar news, and they feel that Li Jingyuan's words are really a bit suspenseful, how do they sound like the 'fraudulent investment consultants' that appeared in those cases, and some time ago, some people in the entertainment industry were involved in the 'usury' incident, such as Cui Minxiu.

Worried, Liu Zaishi asked again: "Jingyuan, won't you lose money on these investments?" Or are you using the money to lend? Tell the truth to your brother and don't lie. ”

"Hehe, brother, you can rest assured, with my economic strength, where is it necessary to do those indiscriminate things." Li Jingyuan laughed when he heard this, shook his hand and said, "Don't worry, it's all a serious investment, not a loan shark." Besides, even if you lose your capital, it won't affect you, this has been written in the contract, and at least it will guarantee the return of your principal. ”

At the beginning, Li Jingyuan simply wanted to help those low-income artist groups, so he came up with such an investment plan in the company. For him, even if the investment of all the artists in the company is combined, it is not a big amount, even if it is all lost, he can transfer some money from other places to supplement these artists.

And with his ability and that of his investment company. Basically, the accuracy of the investment is guaranteed. The percentage of mistakes is less than one percent, and in general, it is impossible to lose money at all.

Hearing Li Jingyuan say this, he turned to another page of the contract under his guidance. After reading the above guarantee terms, Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong were relieved.

"By the way, what if I'm in a hurry to use my money and have to withdraw my investment?" In the end, he is still more meticulous than Jiang Hudong. Yoo Jae-seok asked another question.

"It doesn't matter, although an agreement will be signed and a deadline will be made when investing, but if there is really something urgent to use money, as long as you say hello, the company will still take out the money. Moreover, the money is not considered a withdrawal of investment, but only a temporary loan, after the expiration of the investment period. You can also offset your borrowing with a return on your investment. ”

"It's still the same example just now, if you want to use money in Brother Shi, the company will give you 100 million, but this 100 million is not your investment capital. Rather, the company lends it to you temporarily. After the investment period is over, you only need to take out 100 million of the 150 million principal and interest to return to the company, and you can still leave 50 million. ”

"Of course, the company gave such a big discount. On the artist's side, it's best not to go too far, if there is nothing particularly urgent. It's better to wait until the end of the deadline. ”

……,……。

Li Jingyuan explained all the details of the contract very clearly, and also revealed a lot of secrets in the company. After listening to it for three hours, Liu Zaishi and Jiang Hudong also figured out that joining K., JYP, YG and other companies was to rely on their idols to become famous.

However, few people remember the agency of actors and comedians, what is this for?

If you think about it, the reason is very simple, it's because of the style. The singers who came out of S.M are all in the same style, and the combination that came out of YG is a completely different route, after seeing more of these different combinations, the public naturally has an impression of the style of the company they belong to, and after subconsciously completing the 'classification', the company name as a label is also remembered.

And the agency where the actor works does not exist as such. Every actor will change his identity in the TV series, maybe he was a positive character in the last TV series, and he will become a negative clown in the next play.

The style of its artists changes too quickly, and the company itself naturally cannot make people have any fixed image consciousness. Therefore, the agency where the actors work rarely impresses the public too much.

This time, the big move of signing Yoo Jae-seok and Jiang Hudong not only made K.W company make headlines and caused a lot of fluctuations within the circle, but outside, the general public also became interested in this company.
