This Star Doesn't Work Overtime Chapter 94

  Chapter 94 92. Send a song to buy a house! Orientation problem?

   On the high-speed rail back to Hangzhou!

  Fang Xueshu and Wu Tong received calls from several acquaintances in the industry, all calling to confirm the news.

  After all, the price of signing Wang Cheng is indeed astonishing.

   This is not an attempt to sign one phase, but a direct contract for three phases, which shows that the price has already determined the value, and it is no longer an attempt.

   "Old Fang, you really spent 26 million to sign a trainee for three phases?"

   "Well, your news is well-informed, and you know it so soon."

   "Old Fang, it's unethical for you to raise the price like this. How can we set the price in the future?"

   "The market has the final say, what should we do without him!"

   "Then he is only a 19-year-old boy with only over 16 million fans. If you give him such a high price, what do other people who have more fans than him think?"

  Fang Xueshu also felt a little pressure after hearing this.

  Because, the price they gave to Wang Cheng did break the rules and restrictions on coffee positions.

   This puts great pressure on other program groups and also on them to make programs in the future.

   After all, you paid more than 8.6 million for a 19-year-old trainee with more than 16 million fans, so I have more than 20 million fans, so the asking price is higher than him, isn't it too much?

   How much should those super first-line fans with 30 to 40 million fans, or even super giants with more than 50 million fans need?

   This time, the price of the entire variety show market was raised.

  Celebrities may be human beings, but the brokerage companies behind them are definitely not human beings. Once the price is raised, there is no way to lower it.

  Fang Xueshu had a headache, but he couldn't care less about it. If he didn't pay the price, he wouldn't be able to grab Wang Cheng. Their spring and summer program group really couldn't do without Wang Cheng.

He looked at Wang Cheng, who was reading a book across the way, and said in a serious tone: "Now he has 18 million fans, and we are also interested in his potential and influence in ratings. If the show gets an audience rating of over 2.5, I will offer him 9 million for one episode, and three episodes will be packaged."

  The person on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment, then hung up.

  Because Fang Xueshu is telling the truth.

   For TV variety shows, ratings are everything.

  Let's say 2.5, no matter how big the stars are in the circle, they can't guarantee that they can guarantee a rating of 1.8 or more on the show, let alone more than 2.0.

  2.0 ratings is a hurdle, after this ratings, it will be a popular variety show!

  Who can guarantee that he can make a variety show popular by himself?

nobody!

  So, Fang Xueshu's words left the other party speechless.

Putting down the phone, Fang Xueshu wanted to say something to Wang Cheng who was reading the book, but seeing that Wang Cheng had been looking down at the book seriously, looking at the cover, it was still an English book, and the seriousness did not seem to be fake, it should be really understandable , immediately shut up and said softly to Wu Tong next to him: "Can we pull the ratings above 2.5 in the next episode?"

   If the ratings are not over 2.5, then the signing will lose money in the short term.

Wu Tong swiped his phone, looked at the comments on the Internet, and said softly: "I don't know! But, I believe Wang Cheng, his works have a good reputation and sales are also very good. Wuha's sales have exceeded eight million The sales volume is up, and tomorrow it should exceed 10 million to catch up with Jingwumen, and the momentum is better than Jingwumen."

   "Everyone likes his music very much. If he can continue to publish a new work in the next issue, then the ratings will be absolutely stable..."

   As they spoke, the two of them glanced at Wang Cheng who was facing him at the same time, but Wang Cheng continued to read the book as if he hadn't heard their conversation.

   After a while, Wang Cheng looked up at them, then continued to look down at the book, but he also asked softly, "How much does it cost to buy a 100-square-meter house by the Huangpu River?"

   The two were stunned for a moment. They wanted to motivate Wang Cheng to continue releasing new songs in the next issue, but Wang Cheng asked about the price instead?

  The house by the Huangpu River is one of the areas with the highest housing prices in China, and the people who live there are either rich or expensive.

  Fang Xueshu asked, "Where are you going to buy a house?"

  Wang Cheng nodded: "Well, I have this idea, it's uncomfortable to live in the company's apartment."

  Wu Tong said: "With your coffee position, you can ask the company to change you to a high-end single apartment."

  Wang Cheng shook his head: "I like living in my own house, and I don't have to worry about moving."

   This is a tradition that Chinese people have passed down for thousands of years. They like a stable home and don't like to move.

  In Europe and the United States, it is normal for many people to move house all year round, and they will not feel emotional, but almost everyone in China does not like that kind of life.

   Having a stable job and a stable family is what they want.

   This is also what Wang Cheng wants.

  Fang Xueshu thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to buy a high-end community with good environment and good service, or an ordinary residence?"

  Wang Cheng thought about it, he likes to be quiet, so it must be a high-end community: "Upscale, be quiet."

Fang Xueshu smiled and said: "That's expensive. The artists I know all have houses in that area. In a good community, the cheapest ones are more than one hundred thousand yuan per square meter, and the most expensive ones are more than four hundred thousand yuan. Flat. My suggestion is to buy Courtyard No. 9, which is about 300,000 yuan per square meter. I know several famous artists who live there."

  Wang Cheng nodded slightly after hearing this, but directly crossed out the No. 9 Courtyard recommended by Fang Xueshu in his heart. He didn't want to live in the same community with too many artists.

  However, I don't want to live in a community with too many ordinary people.

  This will bring him social troubles, and now he is a terminal patient of social phobia.

so!

  Wang Cheng asked softly, "Where do rich people usually live?"

Fang Xueshu froze for a moment: "Rich people, I know a few, all have houses in Jade Garden, but they seldom live in them! There are about 400,000 square meters. But there are no small houses of 100 square meters. The starting point is 100 square meters. More than 80 square meters, the price is around 70 million..."

This is the life of the rich. There are many houses, and they rarely live in the same community for a long time, so many luxury residential areas rarely see lively gathering scenes, and they may rarely see people. It may not be possible to see once.

   And this is the living environment he wants.

However, the starting price of a suite is more than 70 million yuan, which is indeed a bit expensive. It would be great if there is a small apartment. He lives alone, so it doesn't need to be so big. A 100-square-meter three-bedroom apartment is enough. One bedroom , a study room, and a musical instrument room.

  Wang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then began to calculate in his mind.

  If a song sells an average of 15 million a month, after deducting the platform, I can get about 5 to 6 million, and then give the company 10%, and I can get more than 5 million!

  So, to make up more than 70 million yuan, I have to post 14 songs?

  Including the follow-up and continuous income of each song, 14 songs, half a year, should be enough to buy a house?

  Plus the 10% of the notification fee that the company will give him, but this part of the money is very little. In spring and summer, you have more than 30 million yuan in notification fees, and he can only get more than 3 million yuan.

The important thing is that these are all pre-tax incomes. With such a high income, Wang Cheng has never thought about tax avoidance, so as not to cause trouble for himself in the future, so he has to pay taxes in full, which is a tax rate as high as 40%. !

so…

  You have to earn more than 120 million yuan, can you control about 70 million yuan to buy a house?

  Fourteen songs are not enough, twenty songs?

  Wang Cheng frowned slightly.

  Seeing Wang Cheng frowned, Fang Xueshu said: "If you want to buy, you can also get a loan. With your popularity and current popularity, you can easily borrow more than 10 million in the bank."

  Wang Cheng shook his head: "No! This is just a plan of mine. Don't worry, I will continue to release new songs until I can buy a house."

  Wu Tong asked curiously: "Are you posting the song to buy a house?"

  Wang Cheng didn't hide anything, he nodded and admitted: "Yeah!"

   After finishing speaking, he continued to look down at the book.

  Wu Tong and Fang Xueshu looked at each other, and they could see the joy in each other's eyes.

  Then, the remaining three episodes of their programs are all stable.

   It is impossible for Wang Cheng to afford a house worth more than 70 million yuan within three episodes.

  So, I can only keep posting new songs to make money...

Fang Xueshu thought for a while and said, "Your company didn't accept any endorsements for you? Now traffic artists have two main incomes, one is the announcement fee for variety shows, and the other is the advertising endorsement. In your case With the current popularity and fan status, if you accept advertising endorsements, the annual endorsement fee will start at 5 million, and if you receive a few more endorsements, it will be tens of millions of credits. With the speed at which you make money, you can buy a house in a year .”

   Receive an advertisement?

  Wang Cheng frowned slightly.

  Of course he himself is unwilling to accept advertisements, because it is troublesome and makes little money.

  Because he can only get 10% of the advertising revenue, even if the endorsement fee is tens of millions or hundreds of millions a year, he can only get hundreds of millions, it is better to publish two songs.

but!

  He knew that this was not something he could decide.

  It is impossible for the company not to accept advertisements for him, which is one of the main sources of income for brokerage companies mainly based on traffic stars.

   It's just that his fans are still on the rise for the time being, and the company is afraid that the endorsement will be sold at a low price, so it is temporarily stranded, but it cannot be stranded for too long, because he only has two years of contract left.

   Sighing softly in his heart, Wang Cheng only hoped that these two years would pass quickly.

  The high-speed rail will soon arrive at Hangzhou Station.

   When the three of them got off the bus, someone from the program team came to pick them up.

  At the same time, Chen Xiaoyong brought Huang Bin and Mo Bailin to pick up Wang Cheng.

  As soon as they heard that Wang Cheng was back, Chen Xiaoyong, Huang Bin, and Mo Bailin came over an hour ago and waited for Wang Cheng at the gate of the station.

  As soon as they saw Wang Cheng, Huang Bin and Mo Bailin rushed forward to salute Wang Cheng. The other teammates were too slow to grab it, so they could only greet each other.

   "Wang Cheng, are you not tired from the journey?"

   "Wang Cheng, we didn't sleep all night without you."

   "Wang Cheng, let's treat you to a big meal when you go back."

   "Wang Cheng..."

  Wang Cheng let Huang Bin and Mo Bailin take away his salute, calmly listened to the unskilled flattery of several young people, and got into Chen Xiaoyong's car.

   Not far away, Fang Xueshu and Wu Tong also got into the car of the program team and went back. They waved to Wang Cheng before leaving.

  As soon as he got in the car, Wang Cheng said softly, "Let's go back to the cafeteria and eat instead of going outside, it's too troublesome."

The teammates who were about to choose a place to eat were stunned, Huang Bin quickly reacted and said: "Okay, listen to Wang Cheng, go back to the base, go to the cafeteria to eat, Wang Cheng must be tired after running back and forth these two days, too lazy to go outside time to eat."

   Several people echoed.

   Several teammates were so enthusiastic, Wang Cheng smiled bitterly, and then continued to take out his book and read it.

This English book is a foreign historical document. It is a history book he just started reading yesterday. It can be seen from it that Western historians are still keen to dig out ancient civilizations and forcibly splice them on themselves to build themselves into human beings. The successor of the essence of quasi-civilization, if there is no ancient civilization, then make up one...

   Several people watched Wang Cheng and began to read, and they all calmed down instinctively, and stopped making noise.

  They all knew that this was Wang Cheng's habit, so they didn't take it seriously.

   It's just that each of them suppressed their impulse in their eyes.

  They also want to share their joy of success with Wang Cheng.

  I also want to tell Wang Cheng how many fans they have gained, and I also want to ask Wang Cheng how much wuha has sold...

  However, at this time they dare not ask.

  The car came all the way to the filming base, and the few people didn't speak for fear of disturbing Wang Cheng's reading.

  It wasn't until Wang Cheng got off the car and left first, that the few people heaved a sigh of relief. There were beads of sweat on everyone's foreheads. They were a little uncomfortable under the pressure just now.

  Huang Bin and Mo Bailin moved Wang Cheng's salute back, and invited Wang Cheng to the cafeteria for lunch, and it was relatively high-profile, so that the remaining teams could see it.

  The entire program team knew that Wang Cheng was back.

  Chen Hao and Hu Zhiqiang were eating in the cafeteria at this time, watching Huang Bin and Mo Bailin surrounded Wang Cheng excitedly chatting about how many new fans they had gained and how popular their new songs were...

   Chen Hao felt a little sour in his heart, and asked Hu Zhiqiang in a low voice: "Old Hu, can we also buy a new song and come back and sing?"

  Hu Zhiqiang asked rhetorically: "Who can record the song for you in one day? You only have one week to record the song and practice choreography...is there enough time?"

  Chen Hao was stunned for a moment, then helpless, knowing that it was impossible for himself and the team members to do this, he kept thinking in his heart—why could Wang Cheng do it?

   "I heard that the program team signed Wang Cheng this time, and the price is comparable to super giant?"

   Chen Hao asked curiously.

Hu Zhiqiang thought of the Mo Jinhua from Penguin Entertainment that he had met Wang Cheng in the morning. Xindao Penguin's price for digging Wang Cheng was on par with Chaoju, and the price of the program group was not surprising at all. It's almost super giant this time. The program team spent a lot of money for him! Let's not think about it so much, our purpose of coming to the program team this time has been achieved.”

   "Wang Cheng's return is good for us. How much has your fan base increased from yesterday to now?"

When it came to increasing fans, Chen Hao also became excited, and said: "The increase is more than 700,000. Today, I will definitely increase the number of fans by one million. The number of fans will also exceed four million. I will definitely reach five hundred before the next show." Ten thousand."

  Hu Zhiqiang asked: "If Wang Cheng didn't come, do you think you can gain so many fans? How many fans did you gain with so many previous episodes?"

  Chen Hao nodded: "I understand, the ratings are high, and everyone benefits."

Hu Zhiqiang hummed: "Well, don't compare with him, it's enough to manage your own fans well. Anyway, without him and Xiao Daohong, you can't be on the stage of tomorrow's idol. So, you don't need to be hostile to him .”

  Chen Hao looked a little bitter.

  No matter what, he will accompany the prince to study.

   However, this is his destiny from the beginning.

Because, he is from Jingtian Entertainment, an entertainment giant in Beijing, and Jingtian Entertainment only started to set foot in the field of traffic star artists last year. In the past few decades, it has been in the traditional entertainment industry, and the artists and stars signed by it are all powerful. , Young people are basically born in several major art schools. Last year, they signed a large number of young trainees, and pushed their star artists to stream variety shows to make money.

  Chen Hao is the first-generation traffic trainee launched by Jingtian Entertainment, and it was just an attempt.

This is also a general trend in the past two years. Many traditional entertainment giants have begun to set foot in the traffic star circle. While continuously signing trainees, they also spend money to directly acquire some second-tier traffic star companies, or poach traffic stars from other companies to strengthen themselves. flag.

Jingtian Entertainment's expectation for Chen Hao is to be a second-tier celebrity, which satisfied their first attempt goal. Later, they will continuously launch trainee groups to participate in various variety shows. At the same time, they are also spending money to acquire traffic star brokerage companies. Or directly poach people. Wang Zijun, who was also a judge in Chunxia, ​​was poached by Jingtian Entertainment from other companies.

Today, Hu Zhiqiang went to the magic city to dig Wang Cheng, which was instructed by the top management of Jingtian Entertainment. He wanted to dig Wang Cheng to cultivate a super top streamer, then Jingtian Entertainment's traffic star lineup is not weak, but it is a pity that Hu Zhiqiang was defeated by Penguin Entertainment's rich and powerful were scared away, and they didn't even say the price.

  Wang Cheng also saw Chen Hao and Hu Zhiqiang, but ignored them and just ate alone. After eating, he said softly to Huang Bin and the others: "Take a good rest in the afternoon, and come to record songs tomorrow morning!"

   The people who were eating were frozen in an instant, staring at Wang Cheng with wide eyes, full of surprise and excitement.

  Recording a new song?

  Mo Bailin asked tremblingly, "Wang Cheng, are you recording a new song?"

   Several pairs of eyes looked at Wang Cheng eagerly.

  The release of a song wuha has brought them a steady stream of fans and enthusiasm. Each of them has fantasized about whether Wang Cheng will continue to let them sing new songs?

  However, this is just a fantasy, and they dare not say it.

  Because, they are also insiders, knowing that a new song is not so easy to create.

  Wang Cheng released two new songs one after another, maybe they are out of stock?

   Moreover, even if there is, it is not necessary to sing for them!

   Unexpectedly, Wang Cheng suddenly asked them to record a song tomorrow!

  Each of them forgot to eat and just looked at Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng glanced at several people, and habitually ate all the rice in the bowl, leaving no grains, and nodded: "Well, I still sing a new song for you. Come to me in the afternoon to get the lyrics. You share Once the lyrics are finished, go practice and gather in the recording studio tomorrow morning."

  Huang Bin flushed with excitement: "Okay, Wang Cheng, we will definitely do it!"

  Mo Bailin smiled excitedly: "Wang Cheng, thank you for taking care of us so much. Sing all the new songs for us."

   Several teammates were also a little overwhelmed with excitement.

  Everyone of them started to fantasize, could they also make their debut as second-tier cafes?

   Huang Bin, who is the most popular, even fantasizes that if he sings a few more songs by Wang Cheng, can he be promoted to the top class?

   These are all good things that they only dreamed of in the past, maybe now they will become possible?

  Wang Cheng looked at them and smiled.

  He's just too lazy to sing, someone helps him earn money, isn't it good?

  The singing skills of Huang Bin and the others can barely get started, and his late stage is enough.

  Of course, if the company intervenes and wants to share money with Huang Bin and others as singers, then he will definitely not let them sing.

However, without a contract, the company will not come to ask for money, and Huang Bin and the others are even less likely to offend Wang Cheng to share the money. They and the company are only thinking about attracting fans first, and we will talk about making money later, as long as there are more fans , There are many opportunities to make money.

  If possible, as long as there is a work for them to sing and pay Wang Cheng, they are all willing.

  Wang Cheng looked at Chen Xiaoyong: "Brother Yong, contact the program team as soon as possible, and make an appointment with the recording studio. I need two days to find some soundtracks...I'll write it for you later!"

  Chen Xiaoyong immediately agreed excitedly: "No problem, leave these to me."

   After speaking, Chen Xiaoyong immediately picked up the phone and called director Wu Tong.

  As soon as Wu Tong heard that Wang Cheng wanted to use the recording studio, he immediately agreed: "No problem, I'll give you three days, if it's not enough, just let me know. It doesn't matter how long it takes. We can rent one outside for our own use."

  As long as it is used by Wang Cheng, the program group will give way to the green light throughout the process.

  Wang Cheng had finished his meal, nodded to several people, got up and left, and went back to the dormitory to take a nap.

  Watching Wang Cheng leave, Huang Bin and Mo Bailin stood up excitedly and yelled a few times, venting the suppressed excitement just now.

   "Hahaha, that's great."

   "Brother Yong, I also have a chance to get five million fans, right? Wang Cheng is really my big brother, and I will call him Brother Cheng from now on."

   "Yes, from now on we'll be called Brother Wang Chengcheng, we can't call you by name, that's too disrespectful."

  Huang Bin nodded affirmatively: "Well, it's Brother Cheng! By the way, when Brother Cheng wakes up from his afternoon nap, let's get the lyrics. Don't disturb Brother Cheng's nap."

  Of course they nodded in agreement.

   Hu Zhiqiang and Chen Hao who were not far away were silent when they saw this scene.

  Chen Hao's eyes were full of envy.

  Huang Bin's popularity almost surpassed him.

  I can only recite silently in my heart—this song should hit the street.

  However, Chen Hao looked at Hu Zhiqiang and asked, "Why is Wang Cheng okay?"

  Hu Zhiqiang shook his head and said, "Because he is not human!"

  Wang Cheng had just left the cafeteria when the phone rang, and he answered it without paying attention.

  A crisp female voice came from the phone: "Wang Cheng, you finally answered my sister, uh, my call..."

  As soon as Wang Cheng heard the voice, he knew it was Han Xiao. He looked at the strange number and frowned slightly: "Is there something wrong?"

  Han Xiao: "Do you know who I am?"

  Wang Cheng: "Yes!"

Han Xiao: "Then why didn't you answer my call? Yesterday I heard that you left the program group. I was very worried about you, and then I frantically contacted you. I made dozens of calls, but you didn't answer. I think you should go to bed , I made more than a dozen calls during the day, why didn't you answer?”

  Wang Cheng: "I'm too lazy to answer an unfamiliar number."

  Han Xiao: "Then you save my number. This is my private number, and only my family members have it."

  Wang Cheng: "Forget it! If you have something to say, just say it now, if it's nothing, I'll hang up."

Han Xiao: "You! It's okay. I heard that you have returned to the program group again and made a lot of money. How about I treat you to dinner to celebrate? Thank you for helping me increase my followers this time. I have more than 10 million fans ! The lotus palace in West Lake, I booked it for a few days, and I invite you to eat authentic palace dishes."

The increase in ratings not only benefited every contestant who performed on stage, but also the four judges were not bad. Han Xiao also gained millions of fans overnight, and finally crossed the threshold of the first-line celebrity, officially becoming a Top line.

  Similarly, Zhou Yu, Jiang Fan, and Wang Zijun also enjoyed a lot of benefits. Each of them gained more than one million followers, and all of them passed the threshold of the first-line cafe.

  Now, the four judges on the stage with you in Chunxia have become the existence of first-line cafes. Counting by cafes, the lineup is not too weak.

  However, Wang Cheng is not interested in these things, nor has he paid attention to them, and he is even less interested in Han Xiao's proposal.

  Wang Cheng: "I just finished eating, so I won't go. Let's get down to business."

  Han Xiao: "It's business to invite you to dinner."

  Wang Cheng: "Then I will hang up."

  Han Xiao was shocked: "Don't, don't! I, I, I, um, I want to invite you to sing, I want to..."

  Wang Cheng: "You don't have to think about it, I don't know how to sell songs, goodbye!"

   After speaking, Wang Cheng hung up the phone, put the phone in his pocket, and went back to the dormitory, ready to take a nap.

  In a villa in the West Lake, Han Xiao looked at the phone in his hand, still in a daze.

This guy…

  Is it a stone?

   Is it that hard to reach?

  A big beauty won't even come to invite you to dinner alone?

   Could it be a problem with orientation?

  Thinking of this only possible explanation, Han Xiao suddenly looked disgusted.

   "So handsome, with such a good temperament, what a pity!"

  Han Xiao comforted himself.

  However, when I clicked on Wang Cheng's Weibo and wanted to cancel it, my fingers trembled, but I was still reluctant.

never mind…

   It's okay to look seductive.
