This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 75: 74. Nine points for one, nine for me, one for the company!

  Chapter 75 74. Nine points, nine for me, one for the company!

  What is the scope of work for a celebrity artist?

   There is no clear scope!

  Because every star artist instinctively wants to show himself more, in order to attract more fans and get more resources.

  If you are good at acting, you will sing, if you are good at singing, you will act, if you are good at acting, you will direct, if you are good at directing, you will act, etc. These are all normal things in the circle.

  Wu Tong found it difficult to understand the scope of work that Wang Cheng said: "What scope of work?"

  Wang Cheng said seriously: "The scope of work agreed in the contract! I only do what I should do..."

  Wu Tong understood what Wang Cheng said this time. The content of the contract signed by the program group and Wang Cheng was naturally only an agreement to perform on the stage, and the rest was just some boring nonsense.

But…

  You are a traffic trainee...

  Why do you only do the work on the contract?

  The program group gave you more performance opportunities, shouldn't you be happy to accept it right away?

   Wu Tong felt a little regretful about signing Wang Cheng at a high price. He frowned and asked, "Then when you were performing at Oriental Star, didn't you create a song called Jingwumen?"

  Wang Cheng nodded: "It was just an accident, and it brought me some trouble and extra workload. So, I don't want to do it now."

  Wang Cheng’s idea is to take it easy, of course it’s better to take it easy!

  The last time I produced Jingwumen performance, I was somewhat influenced by Zhang Xiuhua and Zhang Hanwen.

   Now that he comes to the new program group, Wang Cheng doesn't have so many scruples, just being himself is enough.

  Wu Tong knew the detailed process of Wang Cheng's creation of Jingwumen.

   It was because Wang Cheng had a conflict with the company, and artist director Liu Jinfeng was behind the scenes, preventing the program crew from letting Wang Cheng choose the song he wanted to perform, so Wang Cheng created a dance song for the performance...

  Then, should I do it myself?

   Don't let Wang Cheng choose the song!

   Then, force him to create his own?

  Wu Tong felt like he was playing a strategy game...

  The target of the strategy is Wang Cheng.

  Wang Cheng glanced at Wu Tong and knew what he was thinking. He smiled lightly and said, "Director Wu, no matter what the program team does, I will only do my own job."

  Wu Tong blushed immediately, smiled awkwardly, and said, "What if I raise the price?"

Wang Cheng still shook his head: "Director Wu, no matter how high the price you raise, it has nothing to do with me. You should know how harsh our trainee contract is, no matter how high the price you pay, it's the same for me... "

   Wu Tong's eyes lit up slightly: "Then shall I talk to your company?"

  Wang Cheng replied indifferently: "Whatever you want!"

  Wu Tong nodded, feeling that he was at a disadvantage when talking to Wang Cheng, and he couldn't keep up with Wang Cheng's rhythm at all. Moreover, Wang Cheng seemed to be indifferent, which made him unable to start.

   Immediately, Wu Tong got up and said goodbye: "Okay, I'll go first, you prepare for the performance! I'll talk to your company's artist director."

  Wang Cheng nodded and said nothing, watched Wu Tong leave, and then began to pack his things, clean up the room, and he would have lunch later, after eating and taking a nap, it was time to go to work in the afternoon.

   I haven't worked for nearly a week, and Wang Cheng is a little strange.

After Wu Tong left Wang Cheng's dormitory, his complexion became very ugly. He felt that he was really being taken advantage of, and muttered to himself in a low voice: "This is really spending money to invite a master back... You can't beat me, I can't scold you... I can't give you money." Can't work hard!"

   As he spoke, Wu Tong took out his phone and called Liu Jinfeng directly.

  The phone was connected quickly, and Liu Jinfeng's hearty laughter came: "Haha, Director Wu, is Wang Cheng in the program group?"

Wu Tong said directly: "I just arrived, and I talked with him. Mr. Liu, I want Wang Cheng to follow the path of a creative trainee, how about it? Every performance, I try to perform his own creations as much as possible. "

   Upon hearing this, Liu Jinfeng nodded immediately and said, "Okay, of course there is no problem. Wang Cheng's problem, as long as he agrees, there is no problem."

   Liu Jinfeng of course agrees with both hands.

  Jingwumen's current sales volume has exceeded 7 million, and the monthly sales volume is at least 15 million. The company can get a few million out of it!

  If there are a few more works that are similar, or worse, it’s okay, and it can bring a lot of income to the company, and it’s definitely not a problem for a year.

  Wu Tong: "I talked to him. He said that he would not accept work outside the scope of contract work!"

   Liu Jinfeng on the other side of the phone also fell silent for an instant.

He was not surprised by this, and knew that this was Wang Cheng's style. He said with a smile: "Director Wu, Wang Cheng is like this, please forgive me. It's okay if he doesn't create. His choreography ability is also very strong. It’s also about creating…”

Wu Tong shook his head and said, "Mr. Liu, I had a chat with Wang Cheng. What he meant was that most of the income from creating works was taken away by the company, so he is not interested in creating. I think, in this regard, you Can the company make some concessions? Let artists earn more money, so they will be motivated."

   Liu Jinfeng was silent again, thinking about it!

  Wang Cheng owns the copyright of his own work, which in itself made the company very dissatisfied. He even dreamed of revising Wang Cheng's contract and getting back the copyright of the work.

   Now, Wang Cheng still dislikes his low share?

   Then you renew the contract, as long as you sign a long-term contract, you can get 50 to 50 points!

Wu Tong continued: "Mr. Liu, I've seen that Zhang Hanwen's popularity has skyrocketed recently. This has exceeded their potential. This is all brought by Wang Cheng... Do you think it is a song that is beneficial to the company? The value of the company is high, or the value that Zhang Hanwen and the others have brought to the company is high?"

  After hearing this, Liu Jinfeng's eyes lighted up slightly!

indeed!

  The company does not have the copyright of Wang Cheng's works, so it can only enjoy this part of the income within two years.

  After two years, it has nothing to do with the company.

But.

  Zhang Hanwen and the others have signed long-term contracts with the company for seven or eight years, and they can make money for the company for several years later.

If Wang Cheng also makes Huang Bin and Mo Bailin popular on the stage with you in the spring and summer, the overall benefits brought to the company in the future will be comparable to that of a first-line top player, and it will be better than a few songs in two years. Came for much higher value.

   Calculated the account.

   Liu Jinfeng had a plan in mind, but he said to Wu Tong: "Director Wu, I know what you mean. But let me think about it!"

Wu Tong: "Okay, Mr. Liu, this matter should be done as soon as possible. The ratings of our program after it aired yesterday was only 1.3... In the next episode, my expectation is 2.0. If this rating can be achieved, then I will directly sign the contract with Wang Cheng For the remaining few installments, the price will not be lower than this installment!"

  2.0?

  This ratings are already at the ceiling level for talent show variety shows.

   Liu Jinfeng frowned.

  Wang Cheng spent three performances on the stage of Oriental Star to bring up the ratings of Oriental Star...

  Now, in Chunxia, ​​do you only give Wang Cheng a chance?

   Really worth it...

  However, Liu Jinfeng felt a little excited when he thought that Wu Tong agreed to directly package and sign the remaining few installments, and the price would not be lower than this installment.

  There are three seasons left with you in spring and summer. If you sign a package, you can earn more than 20 million more!

   Liu Jinfeng replied: "Okay, I understand, I will talk to Wang Cheng."

  Wu Tong: "Okay, goodbye, Mr. Liu!"

  Liu Jinfeng: "Goodbye!"

   After hanging up the phone, Wu Tong went to work.

  Liu Jinfeng thought about it for a while, and then called the general manager Yang Rong and talked about it!

  I heard that I want to increase the income of Wang Cheng's works...

  Yang Rong instinctively objected directly: "Impossible, this is impossible, the copyright is a huge loss for the company. It is impossible to increase the share..."

  As a representative of the management in the circle, he is always thinking about how to squeeze the value of the company's artists, and it is impossible to voluntarily give up the benefits.

Liu Jinfeng immediately settled the score for Yang Rong: "Mr. Yang, you do the math. Wang Cheng is a genius in music creation! He can bring our other trainees to perform together on the stage, and he can make everyone else angry. Look at Zhang Hanwen and the others. A few, the lowest number of fans is more than 1.5 million, Zhang Hanwen is already the number of second-tier fans, is this their original potential? Most of them are brought by Wang Cheng, the most important thing is through That song Jingwumen brought."

"How much income can a Jingwumen bring to the company in a year? Tens of millions is amazing! However, how much income can Zhang Hanwen and the others bring to the company in a year? A conservative estimate is 20 million! And Wang Cheng For the works, we can only divide the money for two years, and Zhang Hanwen and the others have contracts with the company for more than five years, and they can earn us at least five years of money."

  Yang Rong listened, nodded, and expressed approval: "That's right..."

Liu Jinfeng continued: "Wang Cheng now has your program group in spring and summer, just to clock in and go to work, only doing performances, and rejected Director Wu's creative invitation! In this way, the performance effect of him and Huang Bin will be poor. Many, far inferior to Zhang Hanwen and the others. If the ratings don't increase, Wang Cheng's price for the next announcement will definitely be lowered, and Huang Bin's popularity will also not increase... The loss caused by this is far more than one year. There's a song."

   "So, my proposal is to revise the terms of the contract and simply increase the copyright revenue share of Wang Cheng's own works. The other revenue shares remain unchanged!"

   "It's just his own creation. How many songs can he write in two years? How much income can he get? How much can he get if he gives it all?"

   "As long as he can bring us more trainees, we will make a lot of money..."

  Yang Rong was silent for a few seconds, and he figured out the account. There was indeed nothing wrong with it.

  It’s just a few songs, how much can you get if you give it all to Wang Cheng?

  If Wang Cheng can bring a few batches of trainees to the company within two years, all of them like Zhang Hanwen and the others will be enough to bring a lot of benefits to the company, which is far beyond what a few songs can compare.

so.

  Yang Rong also agreed: "Okay, I agree to this matter."

  Liu Jinfeng: "Okay, then I'll go directly to Hangzhou to find Wang Cheng, and confirm this matter as soon as possible, so that I can explain it to Director Wu."

  Yang Rong: "Okay, let's go!"

  Hung up the phone, Liu Jinfeng rushed directly to the train station, and took the nearest high-speed train to Hangzhou.

   Less than two hours.

   Liu Jinfeng arrived at the program group.

  Chen Xiaoyong went to pick up Liu Jinfeng at the train station.

   "Wang Cheng is in the dormitory. He watched something in the dormitory when he arrived today. He had a meal with me at noon, and then went back to rest. It's not yet his afternoon work time..."

  Chen Xiaoyong quickly explained the current situation to Liu Jinfeng.

  Liu Jinfeng hummed and asked, "How about Huang Bin and the others?"

Chen Xiaoyong: "They are studying dance moves with choreographer Mr. Sun, but because Wang Cheng has not arrived, Mr. Sun has not officially taught new dances. They want to wait for Wang Cheng to choreograph together. Wang Cheng didn't nod, and Mr. Sun dared not choreographer!"

   Wang Cheng didn't show up, so the choreographer didn't dare to do the choreography?

  Is it such a big name?

  Liu Jinfeng felt that he might have underestimated Wang Cheng's influence in the industry, so he quickly walked to the door of Wang Cheng's dormitory and knocked gently on the door.

  Wang Cheng just got up, went to the bathroom to wash his face, heard a knock on the door, and said softly: "Come in!"

  The door of the room opens.

   Liu Jinfeng and Chen Xiaoyong walked in.

  Chen Xiaoyong moved a bench for Liu Jinfeng, just when he wanted to sit down.

   Liu Jinfeng said to Chen Xiaoyong: "Xiao Chen, go and do your work first."

  Chen Xiaoyong froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, Mr. Liu, you can talk to Wang Cheng."

   After finishing speaking, Chen Xiaoyong left very tactfully and closed the door.

   Liu Jinfeng saw that Chen Xiaoyong had left, so he spoke to Wang Cheng.

  He was afraid that his subordinates would see his embarrassing picture, so he looked at Wang Cheng and asked, "Are you still used to this place?"

  Wang Cheng came over and sat on the chair, picked up the book again and read it, and said softly: "It's okay, the conditions are better, and everything else is about the same."

  Liu Jinfeng: "Well, it's a bit crude. If you renew your contract with the company, the company will arrange a five-star hotel for you, and the conditions will be better."

  Wang Cheng smiled and said nothing, not interested in renewing the contract at all.

   Liu Jinfeng also stopped mentioning the renewal of the contract, and went straight to business: "I heard Director Wu talk about your creation, but you refused?"

  Wang Cheng replied without looking up: "Well, that's not my job."

  Liu Jinfeng: "I am here this time on behalf of the company. If you can use your original works to perform in the follow-up performances, then we will give you an increase in the copyright and sales revenue of your works!"

  Wang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Liu Jinfeng in surprise: "Increase the share? Will the company be willing?"

  Capital has a conscience?

  He doesn't believe it.

  Liu Jinfeng nodded: "That's right! I discussed it with Mr. Yang, and he agreed. I also brought supplementary contract terms! Take a look!"

   As he spoke, Liu Jinfeng handed a piece of paper to Wang Cheng: "This was done by the company's legal affairs in ten minutes, and it will take effect after you sign it."

Wang Cheng took it over and looked at it. Because it was only a supplementary clause for the income of works, it was very simple and clear. It was just a one-page paper. Fifty five points!

  50/50...

   is not too low.

but.

  Wang Cheng handed it to Liu Jinfeng directly after reading it, and shook his head slightly to express his rejection.

  Liu Jinfeng froze for a moment: "Not satisfied? Why?"

  Wang Cheng nodded: "Fifty to five is too low, nine to one, nine to me, and one to the company!"

Forehead?

   Liu Jinfeng's eyes widened, and his face was full of astonishment again...

  50% is already the company's greatest sincerity, and it is extremely rare in the industry for a brokerage company to take the initiative to increase the share.

  Wang Cheng was dissatisfied, and dared to open his mouth like a lion...

   Directly ask for September 1st?

  He is a trainee, dare to ask for 90%?
