Huayu's I am destiny

Chapter 269 Splitting Brokerage Contracts, Aggregation of Interests

On the way back to the set after filming the cover.

"Recently, we have been negotiating with the company about the division of your specific brokerage contract." Yan Jun now truly regards himself as Lin Qingyuan's exclusive broker, not as an employee of Cehua.

"Why are you still negotiating?" Lin Qingyuan didn't quite understand, "Isn't it already negotiated last time? The record deal is with Universal, and the other management contracts are still with Cehua."

"But the problem is that Endeavor Weimei has recently sent us a signal to seek cooperation. They want to win our endorsement exclusive agency or win your model contract for their parent company IMG."

"Weimei? I'm not very familiar with it." Lin Qingyuan said decisively that he didn't know this company.

"Then you always know about IMG!"

"IMG, I know, the largest sports agency in the world, Gisele Bundchen seems to be the signed model of this company, Weimei is still connected with this company." Lin Qingyuan was vaguely impressed.

"In 2014, WME, one of the world's three major brokerage companies as famous as CAA, acquired IMG and formed WME&IMG, which was later renamed Weimei."

"Two years later, Weimei cooperated with Sequoia Capital, Penguin, Focus Media and Fangyuan Capital to establish a Huaguo branch, and then Weimei's brokerage business began to continue to expand in the Huaguo area."

"There are many famous foreign players like Federer and James Durant. The most famous one in China is Li Na. As a retired tennis player, she not only appeared on variety shows frequently after retiring, but even had a personal film plan, which made her a great player after retirement. The income after retirement is much higher than before retirement, this is Weimei's energy."

In fact, Gu Ailing and Su Yiming of later generations, including UFC's Zhang Weili, also signed under Weimei's banner.

As a "top luxury agency", Weimei has maintained a very good cooperative relationship with many top luxury luxury brands. It can even be said that as long as Weimei wants to, he can help any contracted artist under his contract to get a luxury endorsement.

LV handbag global advertising model (Fan Xiaopang treatment), the world's three major jewelry Tiffany global spokesperson (Yiyang Millennium treatment), IWC brand ambassador (Zhang Ruoyun treatment), Estée Dai Lan Asia Pacific brand friend (Song Zuer treatment), Gu Ailing's fashion resources are enough to kill most of the top domestic entertainment
And the most amazing thing is that many well-known sports events have IMG's participation, even Huaguo's Chinese Super League and the predecessor league of the CBA are involved.

"But isn't this an athlete?"

"Weimei's main business is the combination of the sports circle and the entertainment circle. It is precisely because of the good development in the sports circle that it has begun to seek development and achievements in the entertainment circle."

Liu Yifei was able to win high-quality international resources, and Weimei's behind-the-scenes support was actually the most important thing.

That's right, Tianxian is also in this brokerage company, and not only Tianxian, Shu Qi is also signed by this company.

So in other words, if Lin Qingyuan agrees to cooperate, then he will become colleagues with Liu Yifei
"So they picked me?"

"Yes, but I don't think it is necessary for us to sign the exclusive agency rights to them. Our business territory is already huge, and they will not help us much if they step in now, and they will take away most of the benefits. "Yan Jun expressed his opinion.

In fact, Lin Qingyuan really doesn't lack business endorsement resources, what he lacks now is channels.

A channel that does not rely on film and television works, but relies solely on other aspects to push him out of Asia and enter the European and American markets.

If the previous cooperation with Universal Music was an attempt, then the visit of Weimei Huaguo branch to seek cooperation this time may be another attempt.

"I also don't think it is necessary to sign them, but IMG's model appointment may be a try, although I am not a professional model, nor a professional singer."

Lin Qingyuan still wants to keep the business contract in his own hands, so that he can have more autonomy and a higher sharing ratio in terms of business cooperation.

And ever since he decided to let go of his face and sign with Universal Records, Lin Qingyuan felt that he had let go a lot, at least not as pretentious as before.

Contracts that allow oneself to profit within a reasonable and compliant range should be signed as soon as they are signed, without much nonsense.

"However, I have to declare to you first that if we only sign to IMG Models as a model contract, the promotional resources we can get in the future will definitely be less than what we can get if we sign an exclusive endorsement agent to Weimei. After all, we have not paid protection fees. Give them." Yan Jun reminded.

"It's okay, just let some of the profits go out through model appointments to get promotion channels. I now have Louis Vuitton and Bulgari global spokespersons, and I really don't need their endorsement public relations very much."

Lin Qingyuan is very clear about what kind of position he is in at this stage, it is very high, otherwise Weimei would not take the initiative to seek cooperation.

"However, will Cehua have any objections? First there is Universal and then there is Weimei, and their share is constantly being lowered."

"Although Cehua is not good enough in front of Universal and Weimei, they must still take the lead, because after the split with Universal, your film and television contracts and endorsement contracts will still stay with Cehua, so even if Weimei enters the stage If they want to share part of your endorsement income, that’s for them to discuss on their own, and it’s none of our business.”

"That's fine. Brother Jun, please keep an eye on it. Don't make the relationship between us and the company too rigid. If it doesn't work, we can let some profits go out." Lin Qingyuan didn't want to cross the river and tear down the bridge to kick out the company that cultivated himself.

He is not so mercenary.
"OK, then I will continue to follow up on matters related to the splitting of your agency contract details by the three companies of Cehua Global Weimei. If there is no accident, your future film and television dates will be in Cehua, and your record contract will be signed in Universal. , model or fashion dating at Weimei.”

"Then, in terms of sharing, because there are three companies jointly splitting your brokerage contract, our proportion may be relatively reduced, but the overall revenue base will increase, so it has little impact on us."

"Unknowingly, it has become a collection of interests across all countries in the world." Lin Qingyuan couldn't help sighing.

"The joint investment of multiple capitals is the most stable and safest artist development model."

"Does that mean they'll protect me?"

"The trendy artists who still have potential and commercial value to be tapped will always be protected by capital."

Lin Qingyuan thought about it, yes.

Those who have accidents are all outdated former top leaders, and the accidents of the really valuable general top leaders are all dealt with coldly for a period of time and then come back.
"So the follow-up US itinerary has been decided?" Lin Qingyuan said with a smile: "I feel that it is a rare opportunity to sign to Universal and IMG one after another. It seems a pity if I don't make a fuss in the US."

"Well, it just happens to be connected with Vogue and Zhizu shoots that have been discussed before, but we can only follow the promotion route of fashion and marketing."

"This is enough. Of course, the premise is that the marketing efforts must be in place." Lin Qingyuan also developed in this way in the early days, so he is very clear about the key to the model.

"Thinking too much, it would be a fantasy if we could do the same marketing in America as we do in China."

"Hahaha, take your time."

"Then there is one more thing. The company's new contract for this year has been sent over. From now on, you and the company will share a six-fourth share, and the contract period will remain the same."

When Lin Qingyuan first debuted in 15, he signed a six-year rookie contract with Ce Hua with a [-]-[-] split.

This means that Lin Qingyuan's contract will take effect from the end of 15 and will not end until the end of 21.

The average contract for a newcomer in the entertainment industry is about the same, with a duration of five to eight years and a [-]% to [-]% share. Therefore, those who do not meet these two conditions are most likely to be black-hearted companies.

But fortunately, because of Lin Qingyuan's explosion last year, many companies in the circle had the idea of ​​poaching, so in order to keep this rising star with a bright future, Cehua decided to increase the share ratio without changing the contract period. Upgraded to five five.

And this year, with his improvement in all aspects, he was upgraded to June Fourth, so it is still acceptable.

After all, the top streamers who have just become popular in the circle for a few years are almost equal to this level of brokerage appointments.

Wang Yibo exploded in popularity in 19 years, and did not get a 21-[-] share contract until [-] years, but he contributed a net profit of more than [-] million to Yuehua in just one year, which shows that his total income that year exceeded [-] million .

The other top-ranking Xiao Zhan was even worse. He managed to get a [-]-[-] share, but he still had to be pumped by three companies, Xinli and Penguin. Of course, his resources were very good.

Therefore, it is difficult to judge which will be higher, the income from the expanded base and the reduced proportion or the original income.

But in fact, Lin Qingyuan paid more attention to the future development plan, so he was willing to take the initiative to give a part of the profit to IMG, so as to get IMG's strong promotion channels in the United States and even the world.

In the early stage, lay a solid foundation first, and as long as there are no accidents in the later stage, you can collect a lot of rice no matter what.

This is another characteristic that distinguishes Lin Qingyuan from other top-notch players: he doesn't reject the behavior of making quick money while it's hot, it's just cashing in normally, but he also has detailed long-term plans, so he is willing to sacrifice part of the short-term interests To exchange for more possibilities in the future.

Of course, while his upper limit of development is higher in this way, the risks and hidden dangers he faces will also be greater.

Therefore, most of the top streamers will choose to take advantage of the popularity to quickly cash in and make money. After all, the entertainment industry is changing so fast, maybe they will have a thunderstorm in two years, or the traffic may not keep up.
But in general, Lin Qingyuan is still very satisfied with today's discussions on these few matters.

On the one hand, he got a higher proportion of the sharing contract. It is no exaggeration, one achievement means [-] million.

On the other hand, if there is no accident, he should be able to establish a trinity community of interests with Cehua Film and Television, Universal Music and IMG, and he is the bridge for the three companies to exchange interests.

Although part of his income would be reduced, Lin Qingyuan also took this opportunity to obtain promotional channels in Europe and the United States that he had never had access to before.

In any case, the road has been widened a lot.
