"Tencent is also so rich?"

Zhou Yi was really a little curious about this invitation.

In his impression, Tencent's life in these years cannot be said to be tight, at least it can be called a sentence that cannot be opened.

Sohu, as an Internet company with a decent cash flow at the beginning of the millennium, is willing to spend this money on the budget, and he can understand it.

What's going on with Tencent?

"If it had been two years ago or a year ago, they would have never signed you.

"You can't believe it, Tencent is the first of these Internet companies to make a profit.

"Settled at the end of last year, after deducting all costs, the net profit was more than 10 million."

Qian Jiang, who drank a saliva, handed another document to Zhou Yi, who was sitting on the sofa: "And now, as of the beginning of August this year, it is said that it has achieved large-scale leapfrog profits, and it is expected that the net profit will reach more than 140 million yuan by the end of this year."

"So now they want to expand their influence even further, and they're eyeing you."

45 million sounds like a lot, but once it is spread over a few years, it doesn't put much pressure on the cash flow on Tencent's account.

Not to mention that signing a contract with Zhou Yi can also bring benefits to Tencent itself.

This is also the reason why Tencent now dares to come to Zhou Yi with a money bag.

They also covet Zhou Yi's influence in the market.

As we all know, at present, because of some ancestral shameless operations, even though the little penguin is now profitable, competitors will not let go of this opportunity.

"But 45 million is not too little compared to this vintage?"

How much is a year?

Now that his appetite has been somewhat lost, Zhou Yi is not very satisfied with the sincerity of the little penguin.

"I think so too, but when it comes to business, how can I get it done at one time." As a good negotiator, Qian Jiang smiled somewhat ill-intentioned.

Just kidding, who is our Zhou Yi?

International superstar!

Do you understand the gold content of international superstars?

Now that you've started to make money, you don't want to benchmark against the US dollar standard, at least you have to get up to 10 million a year.

It can't be a full contract, but it can only endorse QQ, a Tencent-based product software.

If you want to endorse something else, you have to add money.

"The bar is so high, are you sure you won't scare people away?" Zhou Yi, who listened to Qian Jiang's eloquent conversation, raised his eyebrows with interest.

"You have fewer endorsements on you, but now that the coffee position is here, the threshold has to be raised.

"At your point, quality is more important than quantity. If the money is not enough, then there must be other channel advantages to make up for it. ”

Saying that, Qian Jiang pointed to the document he had just handed to Zhou Yi, and said with a smile: "Take a look, this is one of the biggest gains you have gained in the international market." ”

“？”

Zhou Yi, who didn't pay much attention to it at first, suddenly became interested, opened the document and looked up, and looked up - Coca-Cola.

"Do you remember what I said to you before, you just fight in the international arena, and leave everything behind the scenes to me." As an agent with strong negotiation and management skills, after getting this contract, Qian Jiang is obviously very confident in speaking.

After Zhou Yi's World Cup advertising song became popular all over the world, he had already begun a tug-of-war with Coca-Cola.

Then, he met Zhou Yi, a completely unreasonable British expert - now it was Coca-Cola's turn to start worrying, but Qian Jiang was not in a hurry.

Although Zhou Jianhui and Qian Jiang, who believe in Zhou Yi the most within Warner, never thought that this "Attitude Show" could have such dazzling results, this did not prevent Qian Jiang from sitting on the ground and starting the price-

"$25 million for a three-year extension, plus a $5 million variable bonus clause. At the same time, the spokesperson level directly crossed the Asian region and was promoted to the highest level of global spokesperson.

"Coca-Cola will also use their channels to help you promote your personal image as much as possible, so as to facilitate the opening of your personal image awareness."

As the only Asian singer in the whole of China - no, it should be said that the whole Asian region has entered the international market to compete with the European and American bulls, Zhou Yi represents more than himself.

Even in Japan, after Zhou Yi's album topped the United States for four consecutive years, he was regarded as the light of Asian music in the true sense.

What Utada Hikaru is not familiar with.

They all went to the United States in 02, and other people's Zhou Yi albums are killing indiscriminately, what about your English albums?

Why is it that only a Japanese album was released in June and sold in Japan, and Yingzhuan asked that it was still brewing?

Co-author: You stayed in the United States for a few months, and you didn't even participate in the promotion of your own Japanese album, but you just gave yourself an English literary name?

Many Japanese music fans were extremely disappointed by this, and at the same time did not forget to express their support for Zhou Yi.

As for his scolding war with hip-hop king Eminem, in the voting statistics of several newspapers in the two countries, the 98% praise given by the Japanese with a strong nature is even higher than the 94% in China.

"Coca-Cola intends to hold a contract renewal press conference on August 6, which is also the day of the new update of the B list. Although I estimate that the album can't keep its consecutive titles, the single's triple crown should still be sustainable. ”

Qian Jiang, who always pays attention to the data of the United States, analyzed for Zhou Yi: "There is a rookie female singer named Avril, her album is rushing on the album chart, and it is very likely that she will be able to break your four consecutive championships this week." ”

“……”

Zhou Yi, who originally wanted to ask who it was, immediately swallowed back the words that came to his mouth after hearing this name.

Canadian punk diva Avril Lavigne, another singer who is at the peak of her debut. In Asia, especially in China, the popularity of female singers in Europe and the United States will be the highest peak in the future.

If he hadn't been born out of nowhere, the runner-up on this year's world album sales chart would have been this little witch, second only to the champion Eminem, and it was normal for her to sell well.

"It doesn't matter if the album loses four consecutive titles, it's arrogant enough to dominate the charts for a month, but what about the global aspect?" Zhou Yi, who has won four consecutive championships, is already very satisfied, and he is still more concerned about his global sales.

"The momentum is very strong, and there is definitely hope that it will exceed 15 million copies worldwide, and this is the first time that the marketing department has given an accurate sales line. If you count the sales of your singles, you will have absolutely no problem with your total sales of 21-23 million copies this year! ”

Speaking of global sales, Qian Jiang's tone was directly excited: "When the time comes, you will be the global annual sales king this year, Ayi!" ”

"Okay, I'll borrow your good words."

Zhou Yi was not as excited as Qian Jiang, but smiled indifferently.

Warner doesn't know what's going on this year, he knows.

Theoretically speaking, Eminem's current "Eminem Show" will eventually sell more than 13.9 million copies worldwide, plus the single OST of "8 Miles" that will be released later has sold 660+, and the annual sales have exceeded 21 million, directly becoming the sales king.

This is the result of not having a scolding battle with him.

Now that he has started a scolding war, it's hard to say whether Eminem's album sales will go up.

On August 6, Coca-Cola (China) held a large-scale contract renewal press conference for Zhou Yi as scheduled, which made Pepsi completely break the idea of digging into the wall——

Counting the large contracts with a total of $30 million, this is definitely the highest endorsement Zhou Yi has received so far!

"The first person in the history of Chinese music! 》

"Make 100 million a week? Wrong, it's a day! 》

When Zhou Yi and the president of Coca-Cola (Asia) sat in front of the camera, each holding a pen and signing the contract for the copy of the show, Zhou Yi officially transformed himself and truly entered the ranks of international superstars!

"It is a great pleasure to cooperate with Mr. Zhou Yi, who has extraordinary talent, and we believe that he will become a mainstay of the Chinese music scene and even the world music scene in the future......

The president of Coca-Cola Asia led the team to fly to the imperial capital, and praised Zhou Yi's achievements in English at this grand press conference.

At the same time, on August 6th, the B list also updated the ranking of the new week-

On the singles chart, Eminem's "Without Me" dropped one place from last week, and was replaced by Zhou Yi's "Good Time", which dominated the championship and runner-up together with the song "yes", which is still at the top of the chart!

On the album chart, Eminem's album "The Eminem Show" relied on the popularity of the previous scolding war with Zhou Yi to increase dividends, surprisingly surpassing Zhou Yi with a slight advantage of 3,000 copies, and topped the championship with 710,000.

"Unbelievable! It's been a month, and they're still inseparable, and Eminem really met his opponent this time! ”

"How did that Chinese do it? Are his albums really that good? Including the hardcover version, there are only 12 songs, but Eminem has a full 20 songs! ”

"Is there a possibility that Eminem's 20 songs aren't as good as five on Spike's album?"

"Overpowered, I prefer Eminem."

"I prefer Spike."

“……”

After spending a full month to prove that he was not a flash in the pan, Zhou Yi completely set off a wave in the United States, and even some American fans tried to find channels to buy Zhou Yi's Chinese version of the album -

I can't understand the lyrics, but I can listen to the melody!

Chen Hao, who arranged for his father to be busy in the United States for treatment, seemed to have the illusion that he hadn't gone abroad yet-

How can she still feel Zhou Yi's fire in the United States?

"Spike's fire is normal, and his album is of high quality." In the hospital, Mariah Kelly, who was entrusted by Zhou Yizhi to also come to help Chen Hao on the platform, probably saw the confusion on Chen Hao's face and said with a smile.

"Really...... Thank you today, Ms. Maria. Chen Hao, who speaks fluent English, thanked him.

"You're welcome, I'm honored to be able to help you."

Maria Carey smiled and waved her hand: "My father was recuperating here before his death, and when your father's treatment is completed, it is best to transfer here for recuperation and recovery." ”

Chen Hao was slightly stunned: "Lady Mary, your father he-"

"He's also cancer, but obviously he's not very lucky."

Mariah Carey smiled self-deprecatingly and encouraged, "Chen, your father's condition is still in the early stages, and if he recovers here after surgery, his recovery is very promising." ”
