China Entertainment 1997.

Chapter 138 Boss Cao, who is worth over 02 million yuan

On March 3th, Cao Xuan finished handling the account distribution of "Youth Bao Qingtian".

In fact, there is nothing to talk about. Chen Yong has always been responsible for the distribution, and Cao Xuan is only waiting for the money.

However, the profit collection cycle of TV dramas is generally slow. The first round, sponsorship fees, and pre-roll ads are okay. The second, third, and follow-up income may take more than a year, or even longer.

That is to say, even if Cao Xuan received a dividend of 1000 million from "Youth Bao Qingtian", only about half of them could be obtained in a short period of time, and the rest would be paid in batches one after another.

This is an industry rule, not only for TV dramas, but also for movies according to the arrangement of theaters. It is not new if it is as short as three to six months, and as long as one or two years.

Cao Xuan knows this well, but the early dividends can also relieve part of the financial pressure.

At least if Fanxing reached a cooperation with Zhou Yi, there would be money to invest in "Li Wei as an Official".

In addition to the follow-up account sharing, Cao Xuan's affairs in "Youth Bao Qingtian" are not completely over. This drama has been tentatively scheduled to be broadcast in September. Cao Xuan, as the male lead, will cooperate to participate in some promotional activities.

This is what should be done, and Cao Xuan has already started to reserve relevant schedules.

In addition, "Youth Bao Qingtian" also wanted Cao Xuan to produce and sing the theme song of the TV series, but he declined.

On the one hand, there is really no time, the new album and "Swordsman" have almost completely divided up the schedule for the next few months.

On the other hand, "Youth Bao Qingtian" wants to prostitute for free, that is, he hopes that Cao Xuan will compose + sing for free.

This is something Cao Xuan can't bear. As the most popular pop star and creator, Cao Xuan's music expenses are not inferior to his film salary.

The two songs in "Journey to the West" were bought and sold by their own family, and it didn't matter if they had money or not.

For Liu Huan's "Waiting", Cao Xuan asked many people for help when he started his career, and he never asked for money.

Later, Cao Xuan invited Liu Huan to sing and produce the theme song of "Journey to the West". Liu Huan also emphasized that the work was free, and Cao Xuan would leave if he gave the money.

There is love between the two, regardless of money.

Therefore, the best way to calculate Cao Xuan's music fees is to refer to the queen Wei Wei.

Last year, Wei Wei took Cao Xuan's song "Silence". At that time, he didn't say the price, but he turned around and called 30.

This price can almost allow an ordinary singer to release an album, and it is definitely considered a top price among today's musicians.

Although Wei Wei was satisfied with the song or took care of Cao Xuan's face, it may have increased the price to a certain extent, but it also reflected Cao Xuan's current social status to a certain extent.

Using this analogy, let Cao Xuan create two songs plus sing and produce, conservatively need more than 100 million, and the key is that there is no market for the price, so it may not be possible to hire.

Under such circumstances, the crew of "Young Bao Qingtian" wanted to prostitute for nothing, and it was already very polite for Cao Xuan not to complain about Chen Yong's wishful thinking.

Cao Xuan couldn't get through here, so Chen Yongcai had to find someone else to invite a song, produce it, and invite a singer to sing. It is estimated that it would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, so it's no wonder he wanted to prostitute for nothing.

.........

After leaving the crew of "Young Bao Qingtian", Cao Xuan did not leave Guangdong Province directly, but participated in the three commercial performances negotiated before.

It has to be said that these days, the coastal area has to be rich, and it's a generous move, and it's about to catch up with the gang of Jin provincial media bosses.

After three commercial performances and four days, Cao Xuan returned to Beijing with an appearance fee of 130 million.

As Cao Xuan's reputation has grown day by day, Cao Xuan's general commercial show fee has exceeded 35, which is almost the only one in the mainland.

Like Zhao Wei, "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was so popular, she went to the Spring Festival Gala and won the Golden Eagle TV Queen, and the commercial show fee was only in the early 30.

The laurels of the "King of Commercial Shows in the Mainland" basically went to Cao Xuan's head, and most of the big names in Hong Kong and Taiwan who are popular are similar to him.

Cao Xuan's main problem now is that his "air" in the commercial performance market has to be raised.

When Cao Xuan first debuted, he didn’t say that he would eat whatever he wanted, but if he was safe, he would accept as long as the price was about the same.

Later, when it became popular, commercial performance invitations came. In order to earn as much as possible, Cao Xuan also gave in on the price of the project.

For example, once he accepted a commercial performance worth 20 yuan in Yu Province, and the merchants in the nearby city contacted urgently to sing a song for 10 yuan. .

Nowadays, this kind of behavior can no longer be played. It is necessary to formulate and standardize the pricing and process of commercial performances. First of all, the first point is that the work of less than 30 or 25 yuan will not be accepted, no matter how convenient it is.

Cao Xuan has to establish and consolidate his personal commercial value, not only for commercial performances, but also for endorsements.

As for film remuneration and music fees, there are too many situations covered here, and there is great flexibility, so it cannot be fixed overnight.

Including commercial performances and endorsements, the price and conditions are not impossible to negotiate, but there must be a lower limit to ensure Cao Xuan's "competitive style".

Don't underestimate this "competitive style". Artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan are more popular than mainland artists, and the price is higher because of the "competitive style".

Cao Xuan's current market price is so high because he is one of the few stars who can be influential in Hong Kong, Taiwan and even Asia, so he is different from ordinary mainland singers.

The fixed price of commercial performances has certainly strengthened Cao Xuan's commercial value and even his coffee status, but the disadvantage is that many people cannot afford it, and the number of commercial performance invitations from Fanxing has plummeted.

But Cao Xuan and Fanxing are not in a panic, because most of the disappearances are mid-to-low-end quotations, and Cao Xuan is still extremely popular in the high-end commercial performance market.

Even because there are more wolves and less meat, many merchants have begun to involve and scramble to raise prices.

Fanxing’s official bidding price for Cao Xuan is 35 yuan, but in fact 30 yuan can also be accepted, but when it comes to specific projects, many can talk about 35 to 40 yuan, or even more.

Therefore, although the number of commercial performances decreased, Cao Xuan not only did not lose money, but even made more money when the price went up.

When film and television production is not on the right track, Cao Xuan's album dividends, endorsement fees, and commercial performance income are the three pillars of Fanxing Entertainment's revenue, with annual profits as high as 3000 to 5000 million.

He is definitely the No. [-] gold-absorbing artist in the Mainland, which means that there is no Forbes Celebrity List right now, otherwise Cao Xuan is expected to dominate the Mainland No. [-] list.

As for Hong Kong and Taiwan, he is even worse.

After all, Cheng Long's Hollywood film salary has reached tens of millions of US dollars, Li Lianjie's film salary is also tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, Fa Ge, Xing Ye, Liu Tianwang and others are all small experts in making money.

But this is not bad. Cao Xuan made his debut in early 97. In just three years, his current real assets have almost exceeded 4000 million.

Not to mention that he still has 45% of Penguin shares in his hand, leaving aside the future, just talk about the present.

Li Cucumber listed his Internet company TOM in early March.

The Chinese business legend + the fiery concept of the Internet instantly caused a sensation throughout Hong Kong, with tens of thousands of people queuing up to subscribe. TOM's stock price quickly climbed to double digits, and its market value approached 10 billion Hong Kong dollars.

On the second day after TOM was listed, Li Cucumber's second son reached a cooperation with Lenovo and issued a series of slogans.

After the content of the cooperation was announced to the public, Lenovo surged by more than 177 billion Hong Kong dollars in just one trading day, with a total market value of more than 800 billion, ranking among the top ten companies with market capitalization in Hong Kong.

This wave of operations, coupled with the influence of Li and Liu, drove the Internet market into a complete frenzy.

At the same time, it also caused a rise in the market value of domestic Internet companies. Penguin, which has confirmed the hegemony in the field of instant messaging in the mainland, once soared to 3000 million US dollars in market value, and it is still soaring.

If calculated according to this market value, Cao Xuan's original investment has directly multiplied by more than five times, and now his net worth easily exceeds [-] million, and Xiao Ma and the others are also multi-millionaires.

These few days Cao Xuan and Brother Xiao Ma talked on the phone, and they both felt that Brother Xiao Ma's tone became more and more energetic.

Once again verified what money is heroic courage.

But Billionaire Cao Xuan is very calm. Now Penguin's market value is all fake. In a few months, when the Internet bubble bursts, it is not bad to keep half of it.

Besides, net worth is not equal to money.

Don't look at Boss Cao's net worth over 500 million. Now it's hard to come up with 10 million in cash, let alone Brother Ma. If you don't ask for help from your family, you may not be able to get [-].

Therefore, Cao Xuan is still able to remain calm about this aspect. Compared with the "illusory" valuation of his net worth, he prefers real money in his hands.

Because of Cao Xuan's composure, even brother Ma and the others were stabilized.

Although these few are not from ordinary families, they are not worth tens of millions, and some mood swings are normal.

Cao Xuan successfully pretended to be a big (jin) general (zhu) in front of Xiao Ma and the others.

.........

On March 3, Cao Xuan returned to Beijing.

First, I went back to Dashizuo Hutong, met my parents, put away the souvenirs I brought from Guangdong Province, and told them which ones were distributed to Master Li Xuejian.

After that, he didn't eat any food, so he used the excuse to run to the Haidian apartment, where Zeng Li had long been waiting for his lover.

In January, they returned home from the winter vacation, and the two haven't seen each other since. Now they reunite after a long absence.

After a fierce battle for 10 minutes, Cao Xuan lay on the bed with his arms around Zeng Li and whispered.

There was still a blush on Zeng Li's face, and he was a little happy to share his good news with Cao Xuan.

She passed the preliminary examination of the postgraduate entrance examination.

The rest are the internal assessments of Chinese opera, which are not difficult and have a certain preference for the students of this school. It can be said that Zeng Li has already half-stepped into the door of graduate students of Chinese opera.

As long as Zeng Li can become a graduate student, she will be one step closer to her goal of staying in school.

"Then it seems that I will really call you Teacher Zeng in the future."

Cao Xuan was also very happy for Zeng Li, it was Mr. Zeng who called him a bit awkwardly, and it always sounded like Zeng Xiaoxian.

But soon, Cao Xuan remembered another thing: "If you really stay in school and become a teacher, don't you want to teach students?"

"Take it."

Zeng Li counted with his fingers: "I asked a senior sister, and now the old teachers have started to retreat to the second line, and now they are all led by young teachers.

If graduate students like us want to stay in school, they will start working as teaching assistants in the second year of graduate school to test their ability. If they perform well, they may directly serve as class teachers after third year of graduate school or graduate school. "

"Study two, that is, level 02."

Cao Xuan thought about it for a while, it seems that this year's Chinese opera performance department has produced many stars, and it can even be said that it is second only to class 96 and has a lot of "talents".

For example [Shame of Chinese Opera] Tang Yan, [See you on Monday] Wen Zhang, [Little International Chapter] Tong Yao, [One Finger Zen] Bai Baihe...

It is estimated that Mr. Zeng's life as a teacher may not be peaceful. Fortunately, she is only a teaching assistant, and if there is any trouble, the real head teacher will take the lead.
