This star doesn’t work overtime

What is the scope of work of a celebrity artist?

There is no clear scope!

Because every celebrity artist will instinctively want to show more of themselves in order to attract more fans and obtain more resources.

If you're good at acting, you'll sing, if you're good at singing, you'll act, if you're good at acting, you'll direct, if you're good at directing, you'll act, etc. These are all normal things in the industry.

When Wu Tong heard the scope of work mentioned by Wang Cheng, he found it difficult to understand: "What scope of work?"

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

Wu Tong understood what Wang Cheng said this time. The content of the contract signed by the program team and Wang Cheng was naturally only about performing on the stage, and the rest was just boring nonsense.

But……

You are a traffic trainee...

Why do you only do the work specified in the contract?

The program team gives you more opportunities to perform, shouldn't you be happy to accept it immediately?

Wu Tong regretted signing the high-priced contract with Wang Cheng. He frowned and asked, "Then when you performed at Eastern Star, didn't you compose the song Jing Wu Men?"

Wang Cheng nodded: "It was just an accident, and it also 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!

The last time I produced Jing Wu Men, I was somewhat influenced by Zhang Xiuhua and Zhang Hanwen.

Now that he has come to the new program group, Wang Cheng doesn't have so many worries anymore. He can just be himself.

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

There was a conflict between Wang Cheng and the company. The artist director Liu Jinfeng was behind the scenes and prevented the program team from letting Wang Cheng choose the song he wanted to perform, so Wang Cheng composed a dance song for the performance...

Then, should you do it yourself?

Wang Cheng is not allowed to choose music!

Then, force him to create his own creation?

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 faintly and said, "Director Wu, no matter what the program team does, I will only do my job."

Wu Tong suddenly turned red, smiled awkwardly, and then said, "What if I increase 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 raise, it's just like that to me... …”

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

Wang Cheng replied nonchalantly: "Whatever you want!"

Wu Tong nodded, feeling that when talking to Wang Cheng, he was at a disadvantage in every aspect, and he couldn't keep up with Wang Cheng's rhythm at all. Moreover, Wang Cheng looked like he was not getting enough, which made him unable to start.

Immediately, Wu Tong stood up and left: "Okay, I'll leave first. You prepare for the performance! I'll go talk to the artist director of your company."

Wang Cheng nodded silently and watched Wu Tong leave. Then he started to pack his things and clean the room. He would have lunch soon. After eating and taking a nap, it would be time to go to work in the afternoon.

Wang Cheng felt a little strange after not working for nearly a week.

After Wu Tong left Wang Cheng's dormitory, his face became very ugly. He felt that he was really taken advantage of. He murmured to himself: "I really spent money to invite an old man back... I can't beat him, I can't scold him... It’s still hard work!”

With that said, Wu Tong took out his phone and called Liu Jinfeng directly.

The call was quickly connected, and Liu Jinfeng's hearty laughter came: "Haha, Director Wu, has Wang Cheng arrived at the program team?"

Wu Tong said directly: "I had a chat with him when I first arrived. Mr. Liu, I want Wang Cheng to take the path of a creative trainee. How about it? In every performance, he should perform his own works as much as possible. "

Upon hearing this, Liu Jinfeng nodded immediately and said: "Yes, of course there is no problem. As long as Wang Cheng agrees, there will be no problem."

Of course, Liu Jinfeng applauded this matter with both hands.

Jingwumen's current sales volume exceeds 7 million, with monthly sales of at least 15 million, of which the company can take millions!

It wouldn't be a problem if there were a few more songs that were similar to each other, or even slightly worse, and that would bring a lot of income to the company. Tens of millions a year wouldn't be a problem.

Wu Tong: "I talked with him. He said he would not accept work beyond the scope of the contracted work!"

Liu Jinfeng on the other side of the phone also fell silent for a moment.

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 bear with me. It's okay if he doesn't create. His dance choreography ability is also very strong. This It’s also creation…”

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

Liu Jinfeng fell silent again and started thinking!

Wang Cheng owns the copyright of his own work, which in itself makes the company very dissatisfied. He dreams of amending Wang Cheng's contract and getting back the copyright of his work.

Now, Wang Cheng still dislikes his low share?

Then you renew the contract. As long as you sign a long-term contract, it’s 50/50, no problem!

Wu Tong continued: "Mr. Liu, I see that the popularity of Zhang Hanwen and others has skyrocketed recently. This has exceeded their potential. This is all brought by Wang Cheng... Do you think a song is right for you?" Is the company’s value higher, or is it the value that Zhang Hanwen and the others bring to the company together?”

Liu Jinfeng's eyes glowed slightly after hearing this!

indeed!

The company does not own the copyright of Wang Cheng's works and 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 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 in the future.

If Wang Cheng also makes Huang Bin and Mo Bailin popular on the Spring and Summer With You stage, the overall benefits he will bring to the company in the future will be comparable to that of a top star, which is more than a few songs in two years. The value is much higher.

Calculate this account clearly.

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 needs to be done as soon as possible. Yesterday, the ratings of our program after it was broadcast were only 1.3... Next time, my expectation is 2.0. If we can reach this rating, then I will directly package the contract with King." The prices for Cheng’s remaining installments will not be lower than this one!”

2.0?

This ratings is already a ceiling level for talent show variety shows.

Liu Jinfeng frowned.

It took Wang Cheng three performances on the Eastern Star stage to increase the ratings of Eastern Star...

Now, in the spring and summer, you will only give Wang Cheng a chance?

It’s really worth it...

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

There are still three phases left for you in spring and summer. If you sign a package, you can earn more than 20 million yuan 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 for a while, then called General Manager Yang Rong and told him about it!

I heard that I want to increase Wang Cheng’s share of income from his works...

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

As an employer representative in the industry, he spends his whole day thinking about how to squeeze the value of the company's artists, and it is impossible for him to voluntarily give up his profits.

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

"How much revenue can Yi Jing Wu Men bring to the company in a year? Tens of millions is amazing! But how much revenue can Zhang Hanwen and the others bring to the company in a year? A conservative estimate is 20 million! And Wang Cheng For our works, we can only divide the money for two years, but Zhang Hanwen and 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 and nodded in approval: "That's right..."

Liu Jinfeng continued: "Wang Cheng is going to work with you in the spring and summer program now. He just goes to work and only does the performance. He rejected Director Wu's creative invitation! In this way, the performance effect of him and Huang Bin and others will be poor. There are many, far less than Zhang Hanwen and the others. When the ratings cannot go up, Wang Cheng’s price for accepting announcements will definitely be lower next time, and Huang Bin and the others’ popularity will not go up... The losses caused by this will far exceed It’s a song.”

"So, my proposal is to modify the terms of the contract and simply increase the income share of the copyright of works created by Wang Cheng himself. The other income shares remain unchanged!"

"It's just his own work. How many songs can he write in two years? How much income can he make? How much can he earn if we give it all to him?"

"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 calculated the account clearly. There was indeed nothing wrong with it.

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

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

so.

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

Liu Jinfeng: "Okay, then I will 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, go ahead!"

After hanging 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 team.

Chen Xiaoyong picked 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 his afternoon work time yet..."

Chen Xiaoyong quickly explained the current situation to Liu Jinfeng.

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

Chen Xiaoyong: "They are studying dance moves with choreographer Sun, but because Wang Cheng has not arrived, Teacher Sun has not officially taught the new dance. He wants to wait for Wang Cheng to choreograph together. Wang Cheng did not nod, and Teacher Sun did not dare choreographer!"

Wang Cheng didn't arrive, the choreographer didn't dare to choreograph Fang?

Such a big name?

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

Wang Cheng had just gotten up and went to the bathroom to wash his face. He heard a knock on the door and whispered: "Come in!"

The room door opens.

Liu Jinfeng and Chen Xiaoyong walked in.

Chen Xiaoyong brought a bench to Liu Jinfeng, just as he was about to sit down.

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

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

After saying that, Chen Xiaoyong left wisely and closed the door.

Liu Jinfeng saw Chen Xiaoyong leave before speaking to Wang Cheng.

He was afraid that his embarrassing scene would be seen by his subordinates, 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 and read it again, and said softly: "It's not bad, the conditions are better, and everything else is about the same."

Liu Jinfeng: "Well, it's a bit simple. 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 stopped mentioning the contract renewal and got down to business: "I heard Director Wu talk about your creation, but you refused?"

Wang Cheng replied without raising his head: "Well, that's not my job."

Liu Jinfeng: "I am here on behalf of the company. If you can use your original works in subsequent performances, then we will increase your share of the copyright and sales revenue for you!"

Wang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Liu Jinfeng in surprise: "Is the company willing to increase the share of profit?"

Does capital have a conscience?

He didn't believe it.

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

With that said, Liu Jinfeng handed a piece of paper to Wang Cheng: "This was completed by the company's legal department in ten minutes. It will take effect if you sign it."

Wang Cheng took it and looked at it. Because it was only a supplementary clause for the income from works, it was very simple and clear. It was just one page. It clearly stated that all income from Wang Cheng's creative works and the company's share were increased to Five to five!

50/50...

It's not low anymore.

but.

After Wang Cheng read it, he handed it directly to Liu Jinfeng and shook his head gently to express his rejection.

Liu Jinfeng was stunned for a moment: "Not satisfied? Why?"

Wang Cheng nodded: "Fifty-five points is too low, ninety-one points, nine for me, one for the company!"

Forehead?

Liu Jinfeng's eyes widened and his face was filled with shock again...

50-50 is already the company's greatest sincerity, and the brokerage company takes the initiative to increase the share, which is extremely rare in the industry.

Wang Cheng was actually dissatisfied and dared to open his mouth...

Just ask for September 1st?

As a trainee, he dares to ask for 90%?
