Chapter 252 251. Deliberately embarrassing sky-high performance fees! The Spring Festival Gala program team compromised!
Guo Haitao is feeling a little painful but happy at the same time, and his mood is somewhat similar to that of Li Yumin from Douyu Live Broadcast!
Television ratings and online live audience numbers both hit new highs.
The ratings of more than five points and more than 40 million people online shocked the entire industry. They saw that Jiang Chen’s popularity is definitely not just limited to the mobile live broadcast screen, but is real. to any screen.
After knowing the detailed data of yesterday's King of Singers Competition, many people in the industry were ready to make a move on Jiang Chen. He was simply a walking super traffic package.
But...
Interested people can easily find out the price of Jiang Chen's performance, which also discourages many people.
50 million per performance is simply unbelievably high.
As for Jiang Chen’s performance, it costs more than 20 million, which seems to be a great deal. There must be a sentimental factor in it.
At this time, Guo Haitao received strong support from both the TV station and the copyright company, so he dared to continue to negotiate with Jiang Chen about the subsequent performance contract.
"Jiang Chen, congratulations, yesterday's performance was very successful."
Guo Haitao came up and congratulated Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen turned off the live broadcast and smiled at Guo Haitao: "Thank you, Director Guo, this is also due to you."
Guo Haitao looked at Jiang Chen as if he were looking at a perfect piece of jade. No matter whether it is talent, style of conduct, or temperament, there is no shortcoming in Jade.
Of course, with Jiang Chen’s talent, even if there are some shortcomings, he will automatically ignore them.
Guo Haitao smiled and said: "No, you still deserve the most credit. How were the downloads of No Place to Contain yesterday?"
Jiang Chen shook his head: "I haven't seen it yet, so I don't know!"
Guo Haitao listened for a while. He was speechless and his smile froze.
Such an important work was uploaded, but Jiang Chen didn’t even pay attention to the sales.
However, he has already found out.
Now, this song can be heard everywhere on the Internet, and even in reality. The number of downloads of Penguin Music has exceeded 30 million. This is just the data for one night. By the afternoon, the number of downloads 24 hours a day must be It can break through more than 40 million, and maybe touch 50 million.
This kind of data, even those who brush data dare not brush it, because it is too fake.
However, no one dared to lie about Jiang Chen’s data.
Because, everyone knows that this is absolutely true.
That’s why it’s even more incredible.
Guo Haitao felt that it was a little difficult to chat with Jiang Chen, so he immediately got into the topic and said seriously: "Jiang Chen, I came to see you today because I want to talk about more cooperation in the future."
Jiang Chen nodded: "When it comes to cooperation, you can just talk to Xiao Qingzi. , she has full authority to handle my work and business matters."
Han Qing said with a smile: "Yes, Director Guo will just talk to me. What kind of cooperation is it? Needless to say, I have rejected all of them, and there are some others. The TV station and the program team also kept contacting me, and I refused for the time being."
The corner of Guo Haitao's mouth twitched slightly after hearing this, and then he said directly: "It's about the follow-up performance of our program. Invite Jiang Chen, every time the show starts , we have to perform once, and the performance fee can be discussed later."
After hearing this, Han Qing did not express her position immediately, but looked at Jiang Chen and said, "Jiang Chen, do you want to perform one more time?" You have to perform two performances at a time, are you tired?”
Han Qing will definitely ask Jiang Chen's opinion first. If Jiang Chen feels tired and doesn't want to perform, then she will definitely refuse and won't negotiate again no matter how high the price Guo Haitao offers.
It’s not about money.
Guo Haitao was helpless again after hearing this.
Other celebrity singers are eager to perform on their own shows. If they can perform one more show, they are willing to pay for it.
After all, such a large exposure can attract a lot of popularity. Once the popularity increases, it will be too easy to make money in other ways.
However, these are not attractive to Jiang Chen.
After listening to what Han Qing and Guo Haitao said, Jiang Chen thought for a moment, nodded, and simply said two words: "Okay!"
In his heart, he wanted to retire early and enjoy leisure. A life of lying flat.
However, he didn’t want to see so many excellent works from parallel worlds buried in his mind.
So, by performing one more show, he can show the works in his mind to everyone faster, and he can retire earlier.
As for money, he didn't care, let Han Qing talk about it.
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he got up and went to the next room to read or write.
Yan Ruyu stood up and followed Jiang Chen. She was Jiang Chen’s life assistant, so naturally she had to follow Jiang Chen all the time.
Guo Haitao and Han Qing were left in the living room to talk about Jiang Chen's subsequent performances.
Guo Haitao said directly: "The King of Singing Competition is China's King of Singing Competition for the time being. But, Han Qing, let me tell you something. The domestic copyright holders of this show and several international copyright holders In preparation for the International Singer Contest, the champions of each competition area will be allowed to participate in the International Singer Contest.”
"If Jiang Chen successfully wins the championship in our Chinese Division, then Jiang Chen will have the opportunity to represent our Chinese Division in the competition. If he succeeds in winning the championship, he will be crowned the World Singer and become a top international superstar. It is absolutely of great significance for the singer's identity to achieve the title of world singer."
Guo Haitao made clear the follow-up arrangements of the program team to Han Qing to facilitate continued cooperation.
Furthermore, Guo Haitao emphasized the significance of Chinese singers achieving the title of world singer. Apparently, he still wanted to kidnap Jiang Chen and Han Qing with national plots.
However, Han Qing smiled and said: "Those World Championships are for the future. It's too early to tell now. The contract we signed with Director Guo is only for the period of the Chinese Singer Contest. Performance contract. If Jiang Chen is very qualified to participate in the World Championship, it depends on whether Jiang Chen is willing to participate. If he is willing to participate, I will Discuss the contract issue of the World Championship with Director Guo.”
After hearing this, Guo Haitao’s face turned serious. He looked at Han Qing and knew that Han Qing was very difficult to deal with. He obviously didn’t want to agree to the World Championship now and wait for Jiang. Chen won the championship, and if the results will speak for themselves when the time comes, then if the copyright company doesn't bleed a lot of money, they may not be able to invite Jiang Chen to participate in the World Championships.
And once Jiang Chen refuses to participate in the World Championship, then the China Division will automatically abstain from participating in the World Championship. The Chinese copyright owner will not get a dime from the World Championship.
However, Guo Haitao is just a small program director, not a senior executive of a copyright company. He does not consider the follow-up, but only considers the effect of the program he is currently doing. He immediately said: "Okay, what will happen next? Let’s talk now. Talking about the renewal of Jiang Chen's subsequent performance contract. "
"To show our sincerity, we have raised Jiang Chen's performance to 60 million, which is definitely a sky-high price in the industry. Teacher, Teacher Ye Lan and the others don’t have 6,000 yuan in performance fees for the whole season. Ten thousand."
Han Qing shook her head: "Director Guo, how much money they take is their business. They can't compare with Jiang Chen. There are only two of us here, so I am more direct and I am not afraid. If you spread the word and offend them, I'll tell him straight. They have gained huge benefits from being on the show. Not only has their popularity skyrocketed, but they can also make a lot of money. "For Jiang Chen, being on your show is not worth the loss. In this regard, Director Guo." Do you agree? ”
Guo Haitao remained silent. This was what he had said to Mr. Liu of the copyright company before, and he naturally recognized it.
Zhou Ming, Ye Lan, Yuan Caiyi, and Chen Xun all became popular because of the popularity of the show, and the benefits they gained were huge.
And Jiang Chen brought huge attention, traffic, and ratings to the show!
Guo Haitao nodded: "I know, how much do you want, Han Qing?"
Han Qing said confidently: "I don't want more, and I don't want to go back and forth with you about numbers, those It's meaningless. I'm talking about a number, 100 million! If Director Guo thinks it's okay, just sign for a few more shows. If he thinks it's too expensive, forget it. I'd actually rather see Jiang Chen take more rest." br>
Guo Haitao's eyes widened slightly when he heard this number.
This has exceeded the maximum budget of 80 million given by Mr. Liu and Director Li.
Full over 20 million.
Guo Haitao argued for it: "Han Qing, can it be less? How about 80 million? This is the sky-high price among sky-high prices. 80 million for one performance, and there are three or four performances left, that is, three The performance fee is around 100 million, which is already more than our entire season of the show. The production fee is much higher.”
Guo Haitao knew that if the copyright company hadn’t been thinking about the income from the World Championship and the TV station was thinking about the traffic of its own video platform, neither party would have been able to give Jiang Chen so much. Money, doing business at a loss.
It is because both parties are thinking about greater benefits elsewhere that they have given such a high budget and are prepared to lose money.
But...
Han Qing shook her head: "Director Guo, I'm sorry, I said, I don't want to go back and forth, it doesn't make any sense. It's just 100 million. You can discuss it with other people, if you can. Sign the contract, forget it if it doesn’t work.”
Guo Haitao opened his mouth slightly and wanted to speak, but when he saw Han Qing’s firm and confident eyes, he knew that the other party was really determined to get this number.
He is not qualified to bargain.
Because, whether a performance costs 80 million or 100 million, it means nothing to Jiang Chen.
If Jiang Chen uses the works of this performance to live broadcast, the income will far exceed 100 million!
Han Qing asked for this number, a bit deliberately to make things difficult. She hoped that Guo Haitao would give up, so that Jiang Chen would not have to waste more talents and works on the program team.
Guo Haitao was silent for a few seconds and said: "Okay, I will go back and discuss with them and give you an answer as soon as possible."
Han Qing: "Okay, give me an accurate answer within one day. , so that I can discuss it with Jiang Chen and he can prepare the performance in advance. You know, Jiang Chen only performs his own original works. This needs to be prepared in advance."
I only perform my own original new works...
It sounds very awesome.
If someone else said this, Guo Haitao would definitely sneer at it. The other person was just pretending to be bragging.
But, Han Qing said this, and she was talking about Jiang Chen.
Guo Haitao could only nod his head in approval, giving Jiang Chen a thumbs up in his heart - he was really awesome.
"Okay, I will contact you as soon as possible within a day, sorry to disturb you."
Guo Haitao stood up and left, wanting to contact Mr. Liu and Director Li as soon as possible to ask them if they could increase the price.
Han Qing stood up to see Guo Haitao off. She breathed a sigh of relief with a slightly complicated expression.
I think that a month ago I was a humble worker in a small rental house of less than ten square meters in Shanghai. I don’t know what I will do in my life. But today, a month later, She can negotiate hundreds of millions of contracts on behalf of Jiang Chen, and she can also handle the top variety show directors in the entertainment industry.
Life is so magical sometimes, you have no idea what will happen tomorrow.
Han Qing looked at the messages on her phone. There were a lot of messages from people from major TV stations, as well as countless missed calls, including from TV stations and program groups, as well as many advertisers.
"Ms. Han Qing, I am from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV. We would like to invite Jiang Chen to be a show on our station. The advertising fee is easy to negotiate!"
"Ms. Han Qing, I am Nai The general manager of Ke Sports Brand China, I want to meet Jiang Chen and talk to you. I We would like to invite Jiang Chen to be our spokesperson in China. The endorsement fee is easy to say and will definitely satisfy you. It will not be less than 100 million a year..."
"Ms. Han Qing..."
“Ms. Han Qing…………”
Han Qing didn't answer those unfamiliar numbers, so these people sent countless text messages, directly stating their intentions and wanting to get in touch with Han Qing and Jiang Chen.
However, Han Qing ignored it.
Han Qing was about to put down her phone and look for Jiang Chen when she suddenly saw a message: "Ms. Han Qing, hello, I am from the CCTV Spring Festival Gala program team. We would like to invite Jiang Chen to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala performance. . We can agree to the conditions Mr. Jiang Chen mentioned before. , we can talk about the specific details of the cooperation in person. We come with absolute sincerity and hope to invite Mr. Jiang Chen to our stage and give his talent to the people’s warriors across the country.”
Han Qing saw it. It turned out to be a message from the Spring Festival Gala program team, and he frowned slightly.
She still remembered that when Jiang Chen was in Chengdu, Yan Ruyu met the people from the Spring Festival Gala program at Sichuan University. At that time, the people from the Spring Festival Gala program came to Sichuan University and wanted to rhythm two works written by Jiang Chen. , showed it on the Spring Festival Gala stage, arranged programs for the two works at the same time, and also wanted to invite Jiang Chen to perform on the Spring Festival Gala stage together.
However, at that time Jiang Chen put forward his own conditions, that is, he would go later, at most half a month in advance to participate in rehearsals and performances. At the same time, the rehearsal and performance time should not delay Jiang Chen's rest time. He would go before nine o'clock in the evening at most. Take a break after get off work. If you live far away, get off work at eight o'clock.
Obviously...
Jiang Chen’s requests were rejected without hesitation by the Spring Festival Gala program team at the time.
Because this is an outrageous condition that the Spring Festival Gala program team has never seen in 20 or 30 years.
And now.
They actually took the initiative to find Han Qing and proposed some conditions that they could agree to Jiang Chen's discretion!
A smile appeared at the corner of Han Qing's mouth.
The Spring Festival Gala program team can be called a king-like existence in the Chinese entertainment industry. No one in the entertainment industry dares to refuse the invitation of the Spring Festival Gala program team, and they absolutely dare not put forward any conditions to the Spring Festival Gala program team. Anyone who offends them even slightly People in the program team may be banned for a period of time by his words.
But now, powerful and proud people like the Spring Festival Gala program team have also compromised with Jiang Chen.
