Illiterate top class: three years of poor performance, become a superstar

Chapter 189 It's Difficult To Go Out, But It's Always Good To Be At Home (First order + more ③)
"..."

After thousands of sails, the return is still... Huacheng.

Looking at the familiar city skyline that can still be clearly distinguished in the middle of the night, Xu Nian couldn't help feeling emotional.

Outside the porthole of the plane is the neon lights of the whole city, as well as the east and west twin towers and the small waist that seem to be parallel to the porthole.

As the cabin door opened, Xu Nian straightened his clothes, walked out of the cabin, saw the familiar Coster, and breathed a sigh of relief comfortably.

"It's so difficult to go out, but now, I'm finally back."

After counting for 10 minutes, Xu Nian was lying in the bathtub of Tianxuan master bedroom, fully feeling the relaxation in his body.

Thinking back to today... ah, yesterday's rich experience.

After dealing with the entertainment media reporters at the wrap-up banquet, Xu Nian thought for a while. Anyway, there was nothing to do in the capital, and he had a private jet, so he simply returned to Huacheng overnight.

This time there was no need to catch the New Year's Eve dinner, so it was past midnight when I got home.

Although, people finally came back.

Tianxuan Building was cleaned inside and out during the day yesterday, and it was clean.

well.

As for Meng Chao... This thing came to "sacrifice" again, and brought Yu Ting Dian'er back to Huacheng with the plane.

Then Xu Nian thought about accidentally earning 1 million yesterday.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that everything else is just floating clouds.

That's "Infernal Affairs"!

It is recognized as one of the best Chinese films with the balance of art and commerce.

In terms of the balance between art and commerce, this film is definitely on the list of Chinese film and television.

Belonging to the applicable adjective...

'Those with high artistic quality don't perform so well at the box office.

The box office performance is good, but the artistry is not so high. '

Anyway, there are really very, very few cases of Chinese-language film and television that apply this adjective.

It's important to note that other movies are more difficult to perform in comparison.

To be honest, the popularity of other movies is not necessarily easier than "Infernal Affairs".

Some movies may indeed be better in some aspects, but like education, it takes time to complete the closed loop.

It is not bragging or black, and it is also attractive to bring out the plot line of the police and robbers alone.

The audience can directly watch it as a police and gangster movie that more and more people can't make a lot of money.

Not ugly.

Anyway...

"Unless he can't act, I'm sure about the Golden Rooster Best Actor! No one can stop him!"

Apart from other things, on Earth "Infernal Affairs" almost won the important awards of the Golden Statue and Golden Horse Awards that Blue Star did not have.

Years ago, Blue Star also had these two awards.

However, the award selection area is only a small part of Huaguo, which has been merged and digested with the development of the times.

Therefore, in Xu Nian's view, the biggest obstacle to whether he can unquestionably lock in the Golden Rooster actor is whether he can fit in the performance.

As for whether the communication is smooth during shooting, there is no need to consider it at all.

Although Li Cheng and Zhuang Hui co-directed, regardless of Li Mou, Zhuang Hui's attitude has also been shown, and there will be no problem.

Thinking of this, Xu Nian directly brainwashed himself: "Damn, I can definitely act!"

"..."

…………

A new day, the sun is shining.

Xu Nian was sighing and returned to Huacheng, even the weather became more pleasant.

Zhang Yawei, who said hello in advance, happened to walk into the living room from outside.

Seeing Zhang Yawei who is also in Shi Shiran's state, I have to mention the retired singer.

They also came to Xu Nian's house, and they almost opened the door with a password, but Zhang Yawei would greet them in advance.

And the singer who retired from the circle would kill him suddenly on purpose every time, for fear that he, Xu, would XZ up something at home in advance.

I'm so laughing, what can Xu have to hide?

Otherwise, Lin Jia thinks about being a bad woman, because she thinks a little more than others.

Looking at Xu Nian, Zhang Yawei sat down at the tea table, made tea by herself, and asked softly, "Are you comfortable, bothering you?"

"How could it be!" Xu Nian ran over and sat down as soon as he came out, "The house is deserted, and when you come, the house is bright!"

Zhang Yawei turned her head to look at the sun rising outside the window, smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yeah."

Look, look, she really, I cried to death!
After chatting for a while, Zhang Yawei took out a tablet and a bound document from her bag.

"Let's take a look at the financial statement."

Xu Nian responded.

There are more items on the statement this time.

There are many major items.

Among them, the biggest income item is the share of the album "Wu Bai".

It is also divided into two parts.

May share and June share.

As of the deadline, the total sales volume of "Five Hundred" has exceeded 5500 million copies.

On some third-party Chinese music sales statistics websites, "Wu Bai" is included in the statistics category of digital singles.

The statistical standard is: 1 (inclusive) to 5 (exclusive)
It doesn't make any mistakes either.

So far, Xu Nian's two digital singles on the statistical standard are in the second and fourth.

"Wu Bai" is second.

"Rogue" fourth.

Yes, even with such exaggerated sales, it has not reached the top of the sales list.

For example, the first is a digital single released by Chengjing a few years ago, with a total sales volume of more than 5760 million copies.

For example, the third is a digital single released before Chengjing, with a total sales volume of more than 5440 million copies.

Similar to the situation on the earth, the front row of digital single sales is occupied by traffic stars, and Jay Chou has to be a little behind.

Now "Rogue" is still short of 30 million copies before it can enter the top three.

On the other hand, it should be just a matter of time before "Wu Bai" reaches the top. After all, it has sold 500 million new copies so far in June.

The share settlement in May was 5 million.

Although there is a special distribution platform called 'Tian Tian Yue Ting', the calculation is not complicated.

Because it will be very clear in terms of sales.

It’s nothing more than a part of Tianyue sharing 15% of the distribution of the platform to give discounts to users, and some not.

But what Xu Nian could get was 85%.

On the other hand, for other platforms, Xu Nian could only get 85% after 70%.

The total after tax is: 21500 million.

Among them, 'Tiantianyueting' settled the sales of 1800 million copies, and other platforms settled a total of 2800 million copies.

Although the difference in sales was 1000 million copies, the gap in after-tax income allocated to Xu Nian was very small, less than 1000 million.

So when Xu Nian proposed that Tianyue set up its own online music platform, it would be convenient for Tianyue's singers.

The proportion of operating expenses of the own platform can be lower than that of the market, and then the company’s share can be more profitable, and the singer’s income will go up.

Can't lose Tianyue.

It can also take advantage of the trend to expand the business territory.

The settlement in June was 6 million.

The total after tax is: 3800 million.

The total income of the two parts is 25300 million, minus the purchase price of 18000 million, the remaining is: 7300 million.

There is also a part of "Rogue".

And other major items: teme Jedi Gun God’s final skin share,

Tang Tan 2 remuneration and so on.

The total after-tax income is: 500+3000+500=4000 million.

The final big item is... copyright sharing.

They are from Tang Detective 1 and Goodbye Ex.

Tang Tan 1 is a comprehensive financial calculation, which settles all copyright operation revenue sharing as of June 6 this year.

The numbers are far more than Xu Nian imagined.

The ratio of 0.085% is equivalent to only 10 yuan for 85 copyright operating income.

It takes 10 billion to have 85.

However, the statement clearly shows that Xu Nian can get more than 127 million before tax.

This means that in just half a year, Tang Detective 1’s copyright operating income has reached close to 15 billion.

It is simply astronomical!

I don't know how much operating income will benefit the film studio.

Because it only looks at operating income.

It doesn't matter how much the film studio invested in operating income.

If you look at the operating investment, the film studio only needs to play around a little bit, and Xu Nian has to pay for it.

Such examples are common in the industry anyway.

There are super-explosive films and TV shows with operating income of tens of billions of dollars, and the screenwriter who finally enjoys the copyright share still owes millions.

However, according to the international market that Tang Tan 1 is constantly developing, the copyright operating income of 15 billion yuan in half a year does not seem to be too exaggerated.

After all, the domestic market's authorization to online video platforms + members' on-demand share is also a considerable figure.

The authorization fees are several thousand or even over [-] million, and the member's on-demand share is actually quite a lot.

The total monthly membership revenue of the four major online video platforms is about 60 billion, and the half-year membership revenue is 360 billion.

Popular top videos will take the most share.

You must know that when Tang Tan 1 goes online on these online video platforms, members have to spend 3 yuan to buy it to watch it.

There are a total of hundreds of millions of broadcasts.

Moreover, all copyright operating income is calculated in total.

That is: the video platform calculates the total income, and Xu Nian directly draws 0.085% of the total, regardless of how much the video platform draws.

In short, the main one does not consider any form of operating costs at all.

Although the domestic part accounts for a large proportion of copyright operating income, more of it comes from overseas authorization.

Thanks to Mr. Xu's opening of the Southeast Asian and even Asian markets in Bangkok, the film studio subsequently authorized copies to Asian countries one by one.

Also licensed to the North American market.

A single transaction may not be as exaggerated as in China, but the market is huge. Three or two platforms in a country can add up to a lot.

But in fact, Tang Detective 1 basically finished most of this wave, and there will be a little more mosquito leg meat every six months in the future.

The copyright operation income of "Goodbye Ex" is not much, the ratio is 0.425%.

Online video platform launched in May.

Two months is 127 million pre-tax income.

The copyright operating income of about 3 million yuan is far less than that of Tang Tan 1.

The combined after-tax income of this major item is only 150 million, which is not worth mentioning compared to the popular Mr. Xu.

However, Mr. Xu attaches great importance to this income.

Watched it many times before and after.

Nothing else, the copyright operation income of "Infernal Affairs" is definitely worth looking forward to.

The ratio can be 1%!
After the reconciliation, there was an extra 11450 million on Xu Nian's bank card.

Counting the salary of 5 million for the two months of May and June, as well as expenses, there is exactly 6 million remaining on his bank card.

…………

Not in a hurry to talk about anything else, Zhang Yawei directly mentioned 'X': "On the matter of 'X', it is because I have too little proactive communication."

"Chinese-language film and television and Chinese-language music should use this to promote Chinese-language culture. After a comprehensive assessment, they decided to limit the North American region first, and gather your popularity in the North American region with the most efficiency."

"They think that we fully understand the risks, because they can make some resource compensation in other areas, so there will be some trade-offs and sacrifices that are reasonable..."

"The company team issued a warning, and the feedback was that you didn't take it to heart..."

"And I unilaterally think that you don't care too much about popularity for you who want to retire, so I didn't make additional proactive communication."

After saying this, Zhang Yawei said calmly: "It is undeniable that because the overall situation is beneficial to Tianyue, even if I did not rely on family resources, I only received preferential treatment because of Tianyue; so subjectively, I am more slack in communication."

Xu Nian, who had re-examined the matter, had almost figured out the twists and turns. Hearing what Zhang Yawei said, he completely understood.

He has always known that Chinese-language film and television and Chinese-language music will make some calculations.

It is more clear that cutting leeks is a double-edged sword.

There will definitely be 'sacrifices'.

He just didn't understand the influence of selling 'X' clothing in a limited area before, and he didn't even understand why New Year's fans could be brought into rhythm.

Meng Chao's explanation only partially resolved his doubts.

Xu Nian only found out after surfing the waves. From the perspective of ordinary fans, his personal brand clothing is a kind of bond.

It can be further found that no matter which top streamer, 99% of their fans don't care about the link of idol fashion brand clothing at all.

For this reason, Xu Nian went to check other top trendy brands, and there were very few of them with a total sales of more than a thousand items.

The total sales volume of most of the single products on sale is less than [-].

Are these top-notch people vain?

But after the surface data is drained, the top stream is still the top stream.

Is it because these top streamers have not advertised?
Obviously not, there are top streamers who give gifts to friends in the circle everywhere, and then the marketing account sells them every day.

So the result is relatively clear, if there is no rhythm, 99.99% of the fans don't care that much.

And after Xu Nian took the initiative to operate again and again, the more special group of Nian fans obviously didn't care much.

Let's put it this way, Nianhei's genes are more similar to those of other top fans.

In the dark of the year, there will be some people who care about the same.

So, Xu Nian continued to surf, he wanted to know how the rhythm that was quickly subsided at the beginning came about.

I want to know why Tianyue needs to press the rhythm again recently, so that the entertainment media have asked questions again.

In the end, after looking around, I found that passers-by and people who eat melons are more concerned, and worry about the New Year fans.

It magnifies the bond effect of the gradually flooding product of 'tide brand'.

To be honest, if he releases some commemorative physical album alone in North America, it becomes a risk, and Xu Nian feels he deserves it.

But 'X', which he thinks will be a product of many operations, will be something to worry about, and he thinks it is a multi-factor chemical reaction.

Then an entangled state results.

Zhang Yawei's explanation made Xu Nian completely understand that even if only 0.001% of fans want to deepen their bond with their idols, it will be reflected in things that cannot be quantified, such as popularity among passers-by.

This creates risks that are also difficult to quantify.

These thoughts flashed through Xu Nian's mind, he smiled and shook his head: "Actually, we are all right, I really don't care that much."

"In the past and now, I don't pay much attention to 'X', because to me, it's just a transaction. Chinese-language film and television and Chinese-language music use my popularity in North America to do various guinea pig experiments."

"What's more, these popularity is the result of their hard work."

Speaking of this, Xu Nian raised his brows slightly: "Comparatively speaking, I care more about the big family of Tianyue."

Zhang Yawei: "..."

She didn't agree with Xu Nian's point of view because she was wrong.

Even at this point, Xu Nian is still not interested in international superstars.

He prefers results that can be quantified, as well as more tangible transactions and benefits.

Although as a major shareholder of Tianyue, there is nothing wrong with caring more about Tianyue's interests.

but……

In short, to put it more simply, Zhang Yawei understands that Xu Nian is more pretentious now.

However, you really don't have to worry too much about the 'X'.

For example, the content that will be launched on the official website of 'X' is:
At the beginning of the year Xu Nian took the flower city tourism promotional video,

A cultural landscape film constructed with 'X' brand clothing as the main element.
