Chapter 112: Gambling (Part 1)
【Ding】

【Ke Xinying shared a link with you】

[It is said that only 1 person out of 1 can pass the level, so don’t be too sensitive]

"What the hell?" In Beijing, a girl couldn't help but mutter after looking at the notification on her phone.

[Sister Ke, is your phone infected? ]

One minute later...

Ke Xinying: [No, it’s just a small game, sharing has props, don’t mind it]

"Mini game?" After seeing this reply, the girl looked at the statement that only 1 out of 1 people could pass the level, and couldn't help but click on it out of curiosity.

five minutes later……

“Ah!!!!!!!!! Almost there, almost there, oh yeah, there’s a tool!!”

Another ten minutes passed...

The girl slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, I should have done that first. I took the wrong turn."

At the same time, in the holiday villa on the other side, Lu Qinyao had stopped playing the game. It was not because she was tired of it, nor because she had completed the game.

It was because Ke Xinying was answering a call from Qin Weiwu at that time, and the two of them were making a bet. In order to be fair, if Ke Xinying stopped, she had to stop too.

After about ten minutes, Ke Xinying finally finished her call. After putting down her phone, she said to Lu Qinyao, "I have something important to do. Let's stop playing for now."

Afraid that Lu Qinyao wouldn't believe him, he added, "Qin Weiwu has sent me the cooperation contract with Xiyu. Let me take a look first."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Qinyao swallowed back the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

In this way, more than half an hour passed, and it was dark before Ke Xinying finished reading the files on her mobile phone.

"It's time to eat, stop playing." Xu Xiyu's voice just happened to come from inside the house. After hearing it, the two of them got up and walked towards the restaurant.

Looking at the large table of dishes, Ke Xinying couldn't help but said in surprise: "I didn't realize you had this skill!"

"I thought you only knew how to cook noodles. You cook for me every day on the show crew." Lu Qinyao was also surprised. Xu Xiyu had cooked for her on the show crew, but they were all relatively simple. Today, the table was full of main dishes.

"Who won?" Xu Xiyu did not show off when he heard the compliment, but asked with a smile while handing out bowls and chopsticks to the two of them.

"No one wins. Who can play this crappy game? I don't know who designed it with a bad taste." Lu Qinyao took the chopsticks and curled her lips.

"I asked someone to design it." Xu Xiyu chuckled.

“……” Lu Qinyao.

"..."Ke Xinying.

"Eat, eat." Xu Xiyu was even happier seeing this.

The atmosphere of this meal was much better than their first meal at noon.

After eating for about an hour, the three of them sat in their chairs feeling dizzy from the meal. As they were eating, Ke Xinying looked at the mess on the table and said, "I'll clean it up later."

"No need, I'll clean it up." Xu Xiyu shook his head.

"You cook and I wash the dishes. It's my duty." Ke Xinying has already started to live up to her character.

"I'll wash it!" Lu Qinyao was unwilling to be left behind.

"Okay, then you wash." Ke Xinying glanced at her and said.

"..." Lu Qinyao was speechless and was about to speak.

Then I heard Ke Xinying continue: "Qin Weiwu sent the contract over, shall we talk about it now?"

"Okay." Xu Xiyu nodded when he heard that.

"Wait a moment, I'll go get my computer." Ke Xinying said and got up and went upstairs.

A few minutes later, the three of them sat cross-legged on the floor next to the coffee table in the living room. Ke Xinying began to point at the computer screen and go over the contract with Xu Xiyu line by line.

There is nothing much to say about the other things. Qin Weiwu doesn't seem to have done anything.

However, Xu Xiyu still needs to ask a lawyer to help take a look at the real core content of the contract, which is the content of the cooperation between the two parties.

This contract is a bit like a gamble.

What Xu Xiyu needs to do is to take over the brokerage business of at least three newcomers from Hua Qing through the Ivy Studio and train these three newcomers into "traffic artists" within five years.

If a newcomer dies suddenly during the process, they will be replaced by another person, and the term will be calculated based on the time from the debut of the newcomer to his sudden death.

In other words, the original deadline was 5 years, and if it was not achieved within 5 years, it would be considered a failure.

But if this newcomer suddenly dies in the second year due to personal reasons, then his term can be extended to the seventh year.

There are clear quantitative rules regarding "newcomers" and "traffic artists".

There is nothing much to explain about newcomers. The main thing is that this "traffic artist" is judged from four dimensions: popularity, status, exposure and commercial value.

The popularity is anchored on the number of fans on Weibo and Diyin, and the goal is to reach 1000 million fans on these two platforms respectively.

There are no requirements for status, because status is often linked to the number of works, qualifications, and awards.

Exposure is anchored on topic data and various indexes, which refers to Lin Yang’s current average value.

As for commercial value, this is the big deal.

As mentioned before, on Blue Star, the commercial value of artists is clearly divided into different levels, and this commercial value happens to be strongly related to their popularity, status, and exposure.

So, this is the core "condition".

Taking the shooting of variety shows as an example, Lv Qinyao’s announcement fee for "Love Travel" is priced at 200 million.

This is the entry level that is stuck in the second gear, or it can be said to be the peak of the third gear.

The price for the super-level series is about 5000 million or more per season.

The first tier is 1000 million to 5000 million;
The second tier is 200 million to 1000 million;
The third tier is 50-200 million;
As for the fourth tier, that is below 50 or even no money at all.

The price for variety shows is this, and the price range for filming movies, TV, and commercial endorsements is also the same, and it fluctuates within the range depending on the type of project.

It is worth mentioning that there are two special cases.

First, for example, if Hua Qing’s artists shoot Hua Qing’s TV series, there is a high possibility that they will be charged a lower fee or even not charged at all.

Second, the pricing for commercial performances, including some small promotions and advertisements, is not within this range. The fluctuation is larger, and we will take it if we think it is suitable.

Based on the above content, within this cooperation agreement, Ivy needs to make these three newcomers reach at least the first level of commercial value and stabilize it.

What does it mean to stabilize?
It won't drop for at least two years.

In addition, at least five first-tier price project collaborations must be completed within these two years.

In other words, Xu Xiyu's best option is to get them to this level within three years, so that everything can be done after the five-year cooperation period.

But if it is not completed within three years, for example, within four years, he will have to spend another year on "after-sales" work.

In short, the content of the cooperation can be summarized as follows: 3 artists, each artist needs to have 1000 million fans on both Diyin and Weibo, and the topic data must reach the average level of Lin Yang.

At the same time, they need to maintain a stable business value of more than 1000 million for two years.

This is what Xu Xiyu wants to do.

If he fails to do so, he will have to make up for the portion of the profit that he failed to achieve. This is not a scam, it is the same for all bets, and sometimes the compensation is doubled.

So what can he get?

"There are two situations. Let's first talk about the income within the contract, that is, the income during the five years when you are in charge of them." Ke Xinying said as she took a sip of water.

"According to the contract, 40% of the income from projects not invested by Huaqing, including film and television dramas, variety shows, commercial performances, business cooperation, etc., belongs to Ivy.

Xiyu, don't think it's too little. Other management teams only get 25% to 30%. You are the top team, and we split it in half with Huaqing. The artists under you only get 20%. "

"What if it's a project invested by Huaqing?" Before Xu Xiyu replied, Lu Qinyao became curious.

“This is also divided into two categories. One is the project we directly assign to your artists. This does not cost money because it actually gives you the resources to train artists.

The other type is projects that the company opens to all artists. Such projects are usually co-invested with other companies. You can fight for them with your own artists.

We have secured it. According to our investment ratio, it fluctuates between 5% and 40%. If we invest less, you will get more. If we invest more, you will get less. Do you understand me? "

"What happens after the contract ends?" Xu Xiyu asked.

"You have fulfilled the terms of the contract. After the contract ends, someone will inject 10 to 20 billion yuan into Ivy." Ke Xinying picked up the water cup and took another sip. "In exchange for 10% to 49.9% of Ivy's shares. The specific amount depends on the situation. The stronger you are, the higher the valuation will be."

"Who is this someone?" Xu Xiyu asked while calculating in his mind.

According to the first contract signed by Ke Xinying, he could only earn more than 10 million in five years. With billion in cash, he could really do a lot of projects.

"Who are you talking about?" Ke Xinying rolled her eyes.

"Can I not accept it?" Xu Xiyu asked again.

"More than 10 billion or 20 billion in cash is not as little as you think. Moreover, this is not just about money. If you accept this investment, you will become another new leader in our Beijing circle. Other invisible resources are much more than you think. Sometimes, money alone cannot get things done."

"Let's talk about the future later." Xu Xiyu shook his head, "Let me find a lawyer to see if there are any traps in other terms."

"Of course, if there was no trap, would you have signed it?" Ke Xinying asked. There was no trap in the contract because the bet was enough.

"Yes."

"Then let's talk about the first artist first." Ke Xinying said directly.
