After failing the college entrance examination, he became a big star

Chapter 353

Hearing Li Kai's question, the expressions of Su Ting and Ni Houdao became a little strange.

Ni Houdao played with taste: "You are so chic as a hands-off shopkeeper, you don't even know how much cash is in the company's account?"

Li Kai groaned, a little embarrassed, but facing the second of the most trusted people, he still told the truth: "Probably, I still have a bottom line in my heart. If the company pays more than 10 yuan, Su Ting will let me know in advance." , at the end of each month, Xue Bing will report to me once."

Su Ting said directly: "Currently, there are more than 870 million in the company's account."

Ni Houdao is one of the few people who have the right to audit the accounts in the studio, and there is nothing to avoid.

"Why so much?" Li Kai was a little distracted. When paying Lin Yue and Zhang Wen's transfer fee, Su Ting mentioned that the company only had more than 40 yuan left in its books. It only took about three weeks to earn 800 yuan. Wan early?
Su Ting smiled slightly, and counted with her fingers: "Sister Ning will get half of the endorsement fee, 300 million. Sister Ning will share half, the company will share half, and the income will be 150 million."

"Shuteng Records settled the bill once. The four of Feng Zhihao had more than 72 copies, and the three of Duo Yun had more than 192 million copies, a total of more than 530 million. The three of Duo Yun split more than 70 yuan, and the company's income was just over 450 million."

"Dayun's transfer fee is 300 million, after deducting his single follow-up buyout of 20, the company's income is 280 million."

"A few days ago, Sister Ning's fee for being a guest of Zhao Chuanxiong's concerts arrived in the account. There are a total of 4 shows, more than 190 million, and 90% will be given to Shuteng Records, and half of the rest will be shared by Sister Ning. The company's income is less than 1000. The total income is in the early 150 million and the expenditure is less than [-] million.”

At the end, after a pause, he looked at Li Kai and asked, "There are more than 870 million in the account, do you think there is any problem with the working capital of the studio?"

Isn't this a well-intentioned question?

Li couldn't help but laugh, feeling a little surprised. The studio was established in May, and it has been less than 5 months since then. Including the transfer fees of Ning Lan, Lin Yue, and Zhang Wenxin, the income has already reached nearly 4 million. This profit-making efficiency , Compared with the five giants, I am afraid that it is not much better.

This is indeed the case. The total income of giant records must be much higher than that of Huacan Studio, but the expenses are also high. Just the dead wages to support hundreds of people are more than one million per month.

It is estimated that only Nisuo Records, which has the number one male and female singer in the domestic music scene, can make a net profit of 5000 million a year.

Of course, the key to the success of Huacan Music Studio is its open source.

Among the ten singers from other record companies, four are losing money, two are even, two are making a small profit, and two are making a lot of money. However, Huacan's singers are all making a lot of money, and the cost of "raw materials" is kept to a minimum. Zhihao is a third-line player, and the others are newcomers.

That's why, Huacan's every move, the major record companies in the circle paid close attention to, and tried to follow suit. It sounds good to follow the trend, but to put it ugly, it is suffering from pink eye disease!

After laughing, Li Kai said inexplicably: "Since there is no problem with the working capital, I will add some promotional fees to the new album of the future girl. You still look like you are in trouble. You have to be willing to invest in order to produce more."

Su Ting and Ni Houdao looked at each other again, and Ni Houdao sighed: "You don't know about the situation in the studio. As soon as Su Ting announced your decision to 'delay the tour and postpone the album', recently there have been complaints. People are in turmoil."

"This Monday, as soon as the rumors about Ade's bad character came out, it directly led to turmoil. Later, I divided the work with Su Ting. I talked to the singer. Su Ting talked to the agent and the producer. Then we held a meeting to announce some rules. That's how to calm everyone down."

"One of the rules is that Ade is the first batch of singers recruited by the company. The promotion fee for the first album is 150 million, which is the highest standard for other singers' debut album promotion fees. The announced rules are directly broken."

Without going on, the meaning is already clear. The most taboo thing in the company is to change the order day and night, which is like a child's play!

Seeing Ni Houdao's bitter face, Li Kai also smiled wryly, frowning, a little dizzy, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "Then the preheating publicity is 70, the first round of 80 after the release, the sales are booming, according to the default rules additional investment."

The sales volume is exploding, and chasing investment sources is a rule, and no one can object to it. However, investing all publicity expenses in the preheating and the first round is a gambling-style publicity method, which is extremely risky. Once the sales volume If you don't get up, or if you don't get up high enough, it's like an early sentence!

Ni Houdao thought about it for a while, and said: "Follow up the investment of 50, and the sales volume of the new song recommendation week of the two charts must reach at least 25."

Li opened his eyes and looked at him: "Why, no confidence?"

Ni Houdao hesitated and said: "There are several singing modes in the current music scene, individuals, bands, boy groups, and girl groups. Among them, girl groups are the weakest. So far, almost ten girl groups have released films, and only the youthful charm has reached the default platinum. , the image positioning of the future girl, including the three main songs you wrote, is a non-mainstream attempt, I think it is more conservative?"

Li Kai said indifferently: "Because it is a non-mainstream attempt, there is no slow development, and it is more suitable for concentrating publicity resources."

After hearing this, Ni Houdao knew that Li Kai had made up his mind, so he stopped persuading him and nodded, "Okay, then do as you say."

Su Ting naturally had no objection.

Friday morning.

Time Records held an album release conference at the outdoor lawn of the Skyway Hotel.

SHF and Ge Wenwei released the film together.

34 media outlets, journalists, photographers and videographers were present, forming a 270-degree arc with three floors inside and outside on the lawn.

Still Song Sixian announced on behalf of the company that SHF's first album after reorganization will cost 220 million yuan, and Ge Wenwei will release his first Cantonese album with a total cost of 200 million yuan.

Moreover, they all start the tour simultaneously

At the same time, Becca Records and Nisso Records also held album release conferences in the banquet halls of two hotels in the capital. Becca's release is a male group, which was reorganized like SHF, and the total cost of the album 200 million, and Nisso's release is a potential second-tier, the total cost of the album is 220 million.

The same is true, starting the tour simultaneously.

Two singers, two men's groups, four albums, plus a total cost of 870 million, setting a new record for the total cost of a single-day release of a singer.

From Monday to Thursday this week, 200 singers have released their albums, including a band, a girl group, and an A-lister. The total cost of the album has reached [-] million.

In addition, that first-tier, and another second-tier, started the tour at the same time.

In a single week, the total cost of the albums of 7 groups of singers reached the standard of 200 million, and 6 groups of singers started their tour. Such a grand occasion is unique in the history of the domestic music scene!
In the afternoon, Li Kai and Tan Guangyue went to the gym together, chatting while competing with the treadmill.

Tan Guangyue sighed: "15 singers release films, the total cost of albums is 7 million for 200, 4 million for 150, 3 million for 100, and only 1 for less than 6 million. [-] albums and tours are synchronized. Crazy, really crazy I can't understand the world anymore."

Li squinted at him: "You also feel a little crazy?"

Tan Guangyue hummed: "Next week will be Eleven, maybe it will be even crazier."

Li Kai nodded: "Nearly 20 singers released videos before November last year, and there are likely to be more this year."

Tan Guangyue sighed inexplicably: "It's a pity, my album is still in preparation, if I can squeeze in a crazy one, that would be great."

Li looked at his regretful expression, and was speechless to the extreme. I'm talking about reason with you, so it turns out that you are crazy alone!

Blame me for forgetting that you are a cow.

"Li Kai, come here and have a few words with you." A call came, and Li Kai turned his head, only to see Wei Haonan coming in ten meters away, waving at him.

The other party was the assistant to the chairman, who was at the same level as the director of the department. Li Kai got off the treadmill with great dignity and walked over.

The two of them didn't go out of the gym, but went to the side of the strength training machine. There was no one around, Wei Haonan sneered, and said, "You can, just take the brain core company to the pit."

Li Kai understood the meaning, but just shrugged his shoulders, with an expression of caring about my business.

Wei Haonan continued: "A lot of health care companies feel sad now, they call the companies to complain about you, and they also strongly demand that you be blacklisted by various advertisers, so that more companies will not be harmed by you in the future."

Li Kai rolled his eyes: "What do you want to say?"

"I would say, one stupid ad is enough to ruin you."

Wei Haonan slapped his mouth: "To tell you the truth, there are many people in the industry who wish you bad luck, and Lu Guilan is one of them. Back then you slapped her six times in public. You know, women take their faces more seriously than their lives." It’s also the most vengeful.”

"Now she has contacted several entertainment newspapers, and is going to report the glorious deeds of how you hijacked the brain core company. Those newspapers are not the previous tabloids. One of the entertainment newspapers is still in the top five sales. Once it is reported If you come out, other newspapers will reprint it again, and the consequences, hehe, your reputation in the circle will be ruined, your public image will be ruined, and even Huacan will be blackened along with you."

After all, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

Li Kai took it, glanced suspiciously, and wrote the names of four entertainment newspapers and three non-entertainment newspapers on the paper, with 26, 27, 28, and 29 written beside the names.

Before Li Kai wanted to understand the meaning of the numbers, Wei Haonan said: "Numbers represent the date. If you don't believe me, you can buy the Entertainment Weekly that will be released tomorrow morning. If you want to escape this catastrophe, it's very simple, just promise the director With that condition, these newspapers will not report, and the company’s marketing department will help you with crisis public relations to minimize the previous impact. I’m at the company for two days on weekends, so come to me anytime you think about it.”

After finishing the words, he patted Li Kai on the shoulder, raised his head and left.

Li looked at his haughty back, then looked down at the piece of paper in his hand, his eyes were really weird.

After get off work, Li Kai took a taxi home.

Opened the door with the key, and smelled the smell of vegetables, Li Kai's gluttonous stomach was hooked, changed his shoes, walked quickly to the dining table, and saw two plates of hot stir-fried vegetables, and a plate of spring rolls , suddenly moved his index finger and reached out to grab the spring rolls.

"Li Kai, can you stop being so disgusting!" Accompanied by an angry cry, Li Ran, who was watching TV in the living room, rushed over, and the alarmed mother Li also came out of the kitchen.

Li Kai withdrew his hand embarrassingly, and glared at the little girl: "Ghost screaming."

Then, went to the bathroom.

The dinner was very sumptuous, with four dishes and one soup. Li Kai had a good appetite. Li Ran was at a growing age, and his appetite was not small. After a meal, there was only some soup left on the plate.

After the meal, Mother Li cleaned up the dishes, and the brother and sister went for a walk as usual, and after a few steps to the elevator, Li Ran's small face wrinkled, and he said with some confusion: "Li Kai, tell the truth, that brain core essence advertiser Did you plan it?"

Surprise flashed across Li's eyes, and he asked, "Who did you hear that from?"

"My classmate saw it in the newspaper, and today he brought the newspaper to school. There was a report on it, "Big Singer Li Kai Hanged Brain Nucleus Company, or Facing Lawsuit." Li Ran stared at him without blinking. Li opened his eyes, hopeful and apprehensive in his eyes.

Li Kai was a little helpless. After thinking about it, he nodded and admitted. This matter must not be hidden. After the [-]th, there will be more than a hundred and eighty newspapers publishing relevant reports.

Li Ran covered his face with his hands, looked up to the sky and sighed, "It's really you, I'm ashamed to be a human being."
