98. Watching a show? Out of the house! Tell you the ratings later, I didn't want to know. (Ask for subscription)
It's noon.
Liu Jinfeng also asked acquaintances for the sales of several of Wang Cheng's works.
Looking at Ma Yunfei and the others who were training hard not far away, Liu Jinfeng felt that his hands were trembling slightly.
Ma Yunfei's image has become small again.
So far, Ma Yunfei's fans have only accumulated to four million, not to mention compared with Wang Cheng, it is much lower than Zhang Hanwen and Huang Bin, and even Mo Bailin.
Ma Yunfei, who he was most optimistic about before, has been thrown away by several other people in the same company at this time, and if all the trainees of the same class are counted, Ma Yunfei's status will be lower.
The reason why Liu Jinfeng has been guarding Ma Yunfei recently, and he has to give Ma Yunfei the most resources, is just the plan he made at the beginning, in fact, he just insists on saving face.
At the beginning, he pushed Ma Yunfei against public opinion, and then gave up not long after, doesn't it prove that his vision is not good?
As an artist director of an entertainment company, if you can't have a good vision, then you can't have a good ability!
Therefore, even if Zhang Hanwen and Huang Bin, Mo Bailin and several people have risen.
He also wants to push Ma Yunfei hard, push Ma Yunfei to the same level as them, and prove that his vision is okay!
But he thought about it......
Is Ma Yunfei too bad?
Not.
Ma Yunfei is also one of the most popular trainees on the Happy Boys stage, there are still four episodes before the end of this season's show, there are already four million fans, and when the season ends with more than five million fans, it is appropriate to achieve a second-tier coffee position, and then strive to be on the stage of tomorrow's idols, and there will be another wave of fans, even if you can't become a first-line top stream with more than 10 million fans before your debut, then you will definitely become a first-line top stream with a little hype after your debut!
Such future potential is already a rare resource.
The top line is not cabbage.
If it was the first two years, Ma Yunfei would definitely be a model of operational success.
But......
This year, it seems that there are a little too many high-quality trainees like this?
Liu Jinfeng looked at the numbers on his phone, thinking about the situation this year in his mind, and his expression was even more helpless.
Oriental Stars include Wu Han, Li Feifei, and Zhang Hanwen, who have passed the second-tier threshold of five million fans.
In the spring and summer, there are also Xiao Daohong, Chen Hao, and Huang Bin who have passed the second-tier threshold, and there is also Wang Cheng, who has more than 20 million fans in the sky.
All the people on these two stages can be said to be brought out by Wang Cheng, otherwise it would not be possible to have such a high popularity.
However, the results of the happy girl have little to do with Wang Cheng.
Wen Yixiao also has more than 10 million fans and has become a first-line top-notch, second only to Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi is now also over 8 million fans, and will soon exceed 10 million fans, and there is also a female trainee who has also crossed the threshold of the second-tier coffee position.
Compared with the results of these three programs, the other two programs are too ordinary, and none of them have produced a top-notch trainee with more than 5 million fans.
Ma Yunfei has more than 4 million fans, which is already a top-notch achievement.
But......
Whether it is Wu Han, Li Feifei, Xiao Daohong, Chen Hao or the like, or even Wen Yixiao and Zhu Ziqi, in front of the numbers on the mobile phone screen in his hand, they are all so worthless.
Liu Jinfeng sent a message again: "Brother, is the number accurate?"
The other party immediately replied: "It must be accurate, no problem! Our internal rating of Wang Cheng has risen, and his share will go up a notch."
Liu Jinfeng replied with two words: "Thank you!"
Then, he sent a red envelope of 500 yuan to the other party, and the other party immediately took it away.
These connections need real money to maintain.
Liu Jinfeng picked up another mobile phone and clicked on Wang Cheng's Weibo page.
One is a number sent by an acquaintance of Penguin Entertainment, and the other is Wang Cheng's Weibo page.
Jingwumen, 57 million auditions, 1,400 downloads
Ten thousand.
UHA, 51 million listens, 14 million downloads.
The two songs have sold about the same, ranking seventh and eighth respectively on the monthly sales chart.
However, what made Liu Jinfeng in a daze was the last song, that is, the gecko walk that Wang Cheng just released yesterday, which has been almost twenty-four hours now.
However, the sales figure of the gecko walk has reached 10.5 million, and the number of auditions has exceeded 20 million, whether it is the two numbers themselves, or the ratio of only two to one, it is extremely amazing.
Looking at Wang Cheng's Weibo page again, the number of fans has exceeded 24 million, and the daily growth rate is not low, and it is still very stable......
Liu Jinfeng only felt that his scalp was numb.
Since he became the artist director of Dongxing Entertainment, he never thought that there would be a strongman under his hands who sold more than 10 million songs in a single day, and he never thought that he could bring out a terrifying existence that became a supergiant in two months!
That's a good thing in itself.
However, at this time, Liu Jinfeng only felt like he was on pins and needles.
The reason, of course, is Wang Cheng's contract problem.
However, this time it is not just because of Wang Cheng's brokerage contract, there is no room for negotiation in the brokerage contract.
It is because Liu Jinfeng personally signed a supplementary clause on the income of works with Wang Cheng last time, in order to encourage Wang Cheng to publish more works, the income of Wang Cheng's works has been increased from one percent to ninety!
If the works released by Wang Cheng are similar to Jingwumen and UHA, with sales of one or two hundred million a month, it will be seen that Wang Cheng can bring out a few second-tier coffee trainees, and Liu Jinfeng will pretend to be blind and can't see it, because the company still makes money on the whole.
However, now there are works that sell more than 10 million on the first day.
This......
How many second-tier trainees will it take to make up for the loss?
The most important thing is that this is only the third song released by Wang Cheng, and Wang Cheng will continue to release songs in the future, if he continues to maintain word-of-mouth and the quality of his works, sales may continue to rise.
As an insider, of course he knows how withered the entire Chinese music scene is now, and how much benefit a good song will bring.
A work that sells more than 10 million on the first day, the monthly sales will not be less than 30 million, and the annual sales will not be less than 50 million.
Originally, Dongxing Entertainment could occupy ninety percent of it and take away 22.5 million.
But now, because of that supplementary clause, Wang Cheng took ninety percent of it, leaving only one percent for Dongxing Entertainment, only two and a half million!
And that's just the loss of a song.
What about Wang Cheng's other songs?
What about the follow-up works that Wang Cheng will continue to release?
How much is this loss?
Hundreds of millions are all too little......
If the follow-up Wang Cheng's works are guaranteed in quality and quantity, the loss in this regard alone will be at least more than 200 million, and the specific amount depends on how many works Wang Cheng can release!
Liu Jinfeng only felt the pain in his heart, like being dumped by his first love.
How many Zhang Hanwen, Huang Bin, and Mo Bailin will it take to make up for this?
A second-tier can earn about 20 or 30 million yuan for the company in a year, which is still an optimistic estimate, and it is almost fun to earn 10 million.
It takes at least ten second-tier to make up for the losses caused by that supplementary clause!
Can Wang Cheng bring out ten second-tier companies in a year?
Liu Jinfeng's face was full of melancholy, he let out a sigh of relief, and no longer paid attention to Ma Yunfei, who was working hard not far away, turned around and left directly, picked up the phone and called the company's legal counsel: "Has the supplementary terms I signed with Wang Cheng last time come into effect?"
The in-house counsel quickly replied, "Well, it's already in effect! It's all signed and stamped."
Liu Jinfeng: "If I want to reverse my breach of contract, how much will I have to compensate?"
The in-house counsel quickly looked through the supplementary clauses and replied, "There is no specific figure, it depends on the losses of the other party and compensates for the losses
Ten times the amount!"
Hiss!
Liu Jinfeng gasped.
Although, he knew that this breach of contract clause was also written by himself, Wang Cheng didn't care at all, and just signed it after seeing that there were no traps.
However, he was also stunned by the price of breach of contract, and experienced the mood of his traffic stars who signed child labor trainee contracts.
felt that he took too little and wanted to breach the contract, but the price made him unable to afford it at all, so he could only continue to work part-time to make money for the company.
If there is no specific figure, the compensation will be ten times according to the loss, which will directly cut off the possibility of breach of contract.
If there is a specific number, even if it is hundreds of millions of liquidated damages, Liu Jinfeng will not say anything, and directly throw 100 million yuan to Wang Cheng to default on the spot.
is only the three songs that Wang Cheng has released, and the income will be more than hundreds of millions in two years, not to mention Wang Cheng's other subsequent works.
It's just that he doesn't know that if he chooses to breach the contract, then Wang Cheng will not respect any contract signed with the company, including the brokerage contract, and may face Wang Cheng's brokerage default at that time.
After being silent for a while, Liu Jinfeng still stared at Wang Cheng's brokerage contract: "Is there a way to make Wang Cheng renew the contract?"
The legal counsel smiled bitterly and said, "Director Liu, I don't have that much ability."
Wang Cheng and the company collapsed because of the contract renewal, which is already a well-known thing.
Liu Jinfeng nodded, knowing that this was indeed difficult for the strongman, and asked again, "By the way, are there any other big companies that want to buy Wang Cheng's contract these days?"
He had already heard the rumors that Penguin Entertainment, Huangjiang Entertainment, and even Sedum Entertainment in the capital were all contacting Wang Cheng and wanted to poach Wang Cheng.
After discussing with the company's senior management, he didn't stop it, because when the boss heard that he could receive 200 million liquidated damages at a time, he couldn't wait to sign a contract to send Wang Cheng away.
Even if Wang Cheng immediately becomes a supergiant, it will take time to make money, and it is impossible to earn 200 million at a time.
And the boss's real estate company is in urgent need of funds to revitalize, who can give him 200 million cash, he can kneel down on the spot and call his father......
Therefore, Liu Jinfeng let the agents of other companies contact Wang Cheng, and he was still looking forward to someone to poach Wang Cheng and earn 200 million cash for the boss at a time, and the boss would definitely remember his credit.
Now, seeing Wang Cheng's supplementary clause on the income of his works is a big hole!
Liu Jinfeng even wished that someone would buy Wang Cheng's contract immediately, so that he wouldn't have to have a headache, and when he settled the accounts at the end of the year, he would not take the blame for this supplementary clause......
The in-house counsel thought for a moment and replied, "There are a few companies that have inquired about Wang Cheng's contract."
Liu Jinfeng suddenly came to his senses: "Who?"
Legal: "Penguin Entertainment, Sedum Entertainment, Tianfu Entertainment, Xiangjiang Entertainment, Xizi Entertainment, Rubik's Cube Entertainment......
Boy!
As soon as he heard these names, Liu Jinfeng was shocked.
Because, these are all entertainment giants, and they are also the six giants of the Chinese entertainment industry now!
All the six giants want to buy Wang Cheng?
Looking at the number of Wang Cheng's fans and the sales of songs, Liu Jinfeng can understand the thoughts of these six giants.
But you're paying for it!
What's the use of just asking?
Liu Jinfeng: "Is there any substantive contact?"
Legal: "No, I just asked about the contract and it was gone."
Liu Jinfeng was silent.
The in-house counsel added, "By the way, I heard that Penguin Entertainment asked about our company's debt and equity situation......
Inquire about the company's debt and equity?
Liu Jinfeng's eyes widened.
As an old conformist, he certainly knows what that means.
This is information that will only be queried if the acquisition is initiated.
Ask about the company's debt and equity composition before you can give a specific valuation and then initiate an acquisition?
Liu Jinfeng sat in the car and almost jumped up in surprise: "What does Penguin Entertainment want to do? Acquire our company?"
The in-house counsel smiled wryly, "Based on their behavior, it's possible. But I haven't heard anything about them yet."
Liu Jinfeng thought for a while and said, "Okay, if there is any situation, remember to tell me."
Legal: "Okay!"
Hung up the phone.
Liu Jinfeng quickly thought about the possibility of Penguin Entertainment acquiring Dongxing Entertainment.
Once giant Penguin Entertainment acquires Dongxing Entertainment, this could be his chance.
Penguin Entertainment has acquired many entertainment companies in recent years, but after the acquisition, it is still allowed to operate independently, but when the group headquarters needs to cooperate, it must cooperate unconditionally, and when the subsidiary needs it, it can also apply to the group headquarters for more group resources.
Moreover, with excellent performance, the company's executives can climb to the top of the headquarters of Penguin Entertainment Group, which is now at the top of the food chain of the entire entertainment industry.
Liu Jinfeng is looking forward to this.
However, what he wants to do now is to solve the supplementary terms of Wang Cheng's contract.
Otherwise, the loss will be too great at that time, and the boss will know about it, and he will not necessarily be able to carry this pot.
called Chen Xiaoyong and asked about Wang Cheng's situation.
Chen Xiaoyong's return was also mediocre: "Wang Cheng has been resting for the past two days, and he has not come out of the dormitory, I went to see it twice, and he was reading and writing."
Liu Jinfeng memorized the content of this report, so he hung up the phone after listening to Chen Xiaoyong's perfunctory sentence.
The car rushed directly to the airport, and Liu Jinfeng did not go back to the magic capital, but went directly to Hangzhou.
And Wang Cheng got up from a nap at noon and received a call from Penguin Music.
"Mr. Wang Cheng, because you have three works that have sold more than 10 million copies, we have increased your share ratio by one notch, and now you enjoy a 55% share!"
The other party just notified Wang Cheng, which is a clause in the contract signed with the platform in advance, and the specific sharing echelon is formulated according to the sales volume.
The lowest free man is three or seven points, and then the official signed singer is four or six points, and there are three works that sell more than 10 million and can enjoy five or five points!
Wang Cheng thought about it, the next stage is to sell more than 30 million of three or two works, and you can enjoy *** share, and the top seven or three shares will sell more than 50 million of three works!
He doesn't know how many of Penguin's productions have sold more than 50 million, but he believes that he will soon be able to enjoy the top share terms.
Without talking to the other party, Wang Cheng hung up the phone directly.
It's not a negotiation, and it's useless nonsense, so naturally there is no need to waste time and saliva.
I read the book for another two hours and wrote for two hours.
However, Wang Cheng did not practice calligraphy with a brush, but practiced calligraphy with a fountain pen, because he did not have a good brush, he was not used to writing, so he was too lazy to write.
At dinner, Huang Bin and Mo Bailin waited for Wang Cheng to eat together, and inquired about the sales of the new song Gecko Walk.
Wang Cheng checked it and sent it to Huang Bin.
Huang Bin saw it and jumped up directly: "***, thirteen million ......"
Mo Bailin and the others were also flushed with excitement.
It's something they never dreamed of before.
They were able to sing a song that sold more than 10 million on the first day!
This can only be done by super-first-class celebrities, and it needs to go through at least ten days and half a month of publicity and warm-up, and fans will be concentrated on the first day to consume, so that it can be done!
It's nice to have one or two of these pieces a year.
And now, they did it all of a sudden?
When it comes to publicity, the program team has been promoting it several days in advance, but the publicity intensity is average, far from being comparable to the resources that those big names have smashed.
After all, the program team is still mainly based on promoting programs, and promoting Wang Cheng's songs is only incidental.
In this way, it can sell more than 10 million on the first day, so if you concentrate resources to promote this song, Wang Cheng will call on fans again, and the sales on the first day will not be even more amazing
?
Huang Bin and Mo Bailin looked at Wang Cheng, and they all wanted to remind Wang Cheng to make good use of fan publicity next time, but they didn't dare to speak.
They all know that Wang Cheng is not easy to communicate with and has a strange personality, so naturally he doesn't dare to give Wang Cheng any advice.
The entire program team has to make concessions for Wang Cheng, what kind of green onions are they?
Therefore, although he was moved, Huang Bin and the others did not say it, knowing that the sales figure was enough, and began to eat silently.
Wang Cheng finished eating quietly and left.
I just got back to my dorm and was ready to go out for a walk.
There was a knock at the door.
Wang Cheng: "Come in!"
Wang Cheng thought it was Wu Tong, the director of the program group, because the show was about to be broadcast, Wu Tong might come to him to watch the show together, and he was trying to go out for a walk early to avoid Wu Tong, who might be found.
However, the door opened, and it was Liu Jinfeng who came in with a smile on his face.
Liu Jinfeng had a smile on his face, looked at Wang Cheng, admired Wang Cheng's appearance and temperament again, and looked at the furnishings in the room, which was still the style of Wang Cheng's late obsessive-compulsive disorder.
It's just that there are a few blank thick notebooks on the table, and a delicate fountain pen is placed next to it, and one notebook is full of neat and chic fountain pen words.
Liu Jinfeng took a closer look, and only saw a few lines of words - if you compare West Lake to Xizi......
Is it a poem?
Liu Jinfeng was not impressed, but Wang Cheng had already put away the notebook.
Liu Jinfeng didn't think much about it, and smiled at Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, wait for your show to be broadcast again, let's go and watch it together?"
Wang Cheng shook his head: "No, I'll go out for a walk." Is there something wrong with you?"
This is very Wang Cheng, if you have something, just say it, and leave if you have nothing to do.
Liu Jinfeng got used to it, and he didn't have the anger he used to have, so he took out a few pieces of paper and said, "This is a supplementary clause about your work, you can take a look, can you sign it?"
And the supplementary terms of the work?
Wang Cheng frowned and took it over to take a look.
After only one glance, he handed it to Liu Jinfeng casually, and said vigorously: "This kind of thing that treats me as a fool, don't waste my time next time."
Wang Cheng only saw the above line - at least five songs are created every year and handed over to the company, Wang Cheng can enjoy the copyright and income, but the company has the right to dominate!
In other words, the company wants to force Wang Cheng to hand in five songs a year, and the company will use it to sing and operate for other artists to increase popularity.
Wang Cheng didn't need to read other content, but he didn't bother to take a look at this unreasonable mandatory requirement.
Liu Jinfeng hurriedly explained: "The company gives you the highest price in the industry, 100,000 yuan for a song, and other subsequent incomes, which is already a unique condition!"
can enjoy the follow-up copyright sharing income of the work, and can enjoy this condition in the domestic music scene, he can count it on one hand, and he thinks that he has given Wang Cheng the best conditions.
This is the way he can think of to make up for the company's losses, ask Wang Cheng for five songs, and the company will distribute them to its artists, if they are all good songs that can be successful, then the singing artists can get benefits, and what will come is to make more money, which can make up for the loss of Wang Cheng's supplementary terms.
Wang Cheng didn't bother to pay attention to Liu Jinfeng, put on his sneakers, picked up his mobile phone and walked out of the door, ready to go for a walk, stood at the door and looked at Liu Jinfeng, and said surgingly, "Come out and close the door."
Liu Jinfeng felt the ignorance, and was annoyed again in his heart, followed Wang Cheng's footsteps, and slammed the door shut: "Wang Cheng......"
Wang Cheng quickened his pace, didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and walked into the elevator in a blink of an eye, the elevator door closed, Liu Jinfeng trotted and didn't catch the elevator, standing outside with a pale face watching Wang Cheng slowly disappear into the elevator.
"Grass ......"
Liu Jinfeng angrily lifted the wall next to him, and his toes ached faintly, but he didn't feel anything anymore.
His mind was full of Wang Cheng's indifferent eyes.
Why?
Liu Jinfeng took two quick breaths, in his eyes
flashed a fine light: "Wang Cheng, wait and see, I don't believe I can't do anything about you!"
With that, Liu Jinfeng entered another elevator and left.
In fact, he also knew that Wang Cheng would not sign this contract, he was just here to do it, it didn't matter if Wang Cheng signed it or not, as long as the company saw that he worked hard to make up for it, it was enough.
However, Wang Cheng's attitude made him angry.
Wang Cheng didn't care if Liu Jinfeng would be angry, even if the other party was an artist director with his own contract and could decide the existence of his life in the entertainment industry, he didn't care.
Walking out of the shooting base, walking on the road with steps, the mood gradually relaxed.
Buzzing......
The phone rings.
Wang Cheng saw that it was Wu Tong's phone, picked it up and connected it, and Wu Tong's voice came from inside: "Wang Cheng, the show is about to be broadcast, are you watching?"
Wang Cheng: "No, I'm out."
Wu Tong: "............"
"Okay, I'll send it to you when the ratings come out."
Wang Cheng: "It's okay if you don't send it, I don't want to know."
Wu Tong: "I'll send it to you!"
After speaking, Wu Tong hung up the phone first.
