Entertainment: The microphones are here, why is everyone so silent?
Chapter 161: With three temptations thrown at you, how many people can withstand them?
Jiang Mengting became more and more excited as she spoke.
She never imagined that listening to Huadao would become the most expensive negotiation in the history of the music industry.
DouDou directly invested 9 million yuan to secure Ye Chen's remaining four farewell concerts.
All for an exclusive live streaming license and title sponsorship.
Of course, Jiang Mengting also made corresponding requests.
Therefore, Douyin will provide hundreds of millions of traffic exposures and eliminate non-principle-related negative comments.
Given such sincerity, Jiang Mengting and Xu Hong had no choice but to accept.
But precisely because of this, they both suffered terribly during the meeting.
It felt like every minute and second of those four and a half hours was an eternity.
Putting aside the negotiations for hundreds of millions of dollars, the excitement was palpable.
The negotiations could fall apart and hundreds of millions of dollars could be lost with just a slight misstep.
Xu Hong's back had been soaked with sweat countless times.
As a result, he always feels exhausted.
Xu Hong poured himself a cup of throat-soothing tea and drank it all in one gulp.
He slumped onto the sofa.
"Brother Chen, 900 million! That's over 200 million in licensing and naming rights fees per concert!" Xu Hong exclaimed.
"Yes! DouDou is inviting everyone to come and see your concert!" Jiang Mengting added.
Ye Chen was alright, after all, DouDou had previously spent 300 million to invite the whole nation to watch a movie.
But Chen Feng and Murong Fufu were dumbfounded!
With a "clatter," the teacup in Chen Feng's hand fell to the ground.
His eyes widened in surprise, and his mouth opened wide involuntarily!
"How much?! Nine...hundreds of millions?! Just for the live streaming rights to four concerts?! Director Xu, are you sure you didn't mispronounce the unit? It's hundreds of millions, not tens of millions?!"
Murong Fufu slid off the small sofa, her legs went weak and she half-knelt on the ground.
She braced herself against the coffee table and sofa to avoid collapsing completely to the floor: "A licensing fee of over two hundred million?!"
She was deeply shaken!
My God... This... This is more than the title sponsorship fee for an entire season of many top variety shows!
Teacher Ye, Ye Chen... are you holding a concert, or... or are you printing money?!
Chen Feng took a deep breath, but still couldn't react!
He glanced at Ye Chen, who remained calm on the sofa, then at the agitated Xu Hong and Jiang Mengting, his voice cracking:
"No... I know Teacher Ye Chen is popular right now, but... this price is just outrageous!!"
"Is DouDou putting all of her entertainment budget for the next year into her teacher's career?!"
"Did their board of directors go crazy after listening to those nine songs today?!"
Murong Fufu stood up, supporting herself on the coffee table, but her legs were still a little weak.
She murmured, "
An average of over 200 million per game... What does this mean?
This means that Douyin (TikTok) judges that the online live stream appeal of Teacher Ye Chen's single concert can cover and create value far exceeding this number!
This is the ultimate valuation of Ye Chen's personal influence... truly a business legend in the Chinese entertainment industry!
Chen Feng finally recovered and, with trembling hands, picked up the teacup: "Nine hundred million... I, along with my parents, couldn't earn even a fraction of that in two lifetimes."
"Teacher Ye Chen, this is hardly a farewell concert!"
"Are you trying to set a price milestone for the entire industry before you retire, a milestone that no one can bypass?"
Xu Hong added, "It's not just 900 million! Zhang Ming's mind works incredibly fast!"
"He saw that Brother Chen's cover song challenge had a lot of traffic online, and he immediately wanted to piggyback on it... no, to collaborate with him!"
"We're going to make a variety show specifically for challenging cover song contestants!"
Jiang Mengting picked up the conversation, her face showing a sense of having met her match:
"You have to admire his business acumen. He's really good at seizing trending topics and capturing traffic!"
"Zhang Ming was willing to spend a staggering 900 million yuan to facilitate the cooperation, but there was an additional condition—"
"After 'Left Finger Points to the Moon,' Ye Chen's cover song copyrights were licensed to this variety show."
"Of course, it's only licensed to this one program, and..." She held up one finger and smiled meaningfully, "...only for one episode."
Chen Feng, still reeling from the shock of "nine hundred million," was stunned again upon hearing this: "One phase? Just one phase? What's that enough for?"
Murong Fufu, who had already climbed back onto the small sofa, suddenly had a glint in her eyes:
"Only a single, high-quality, explosive product can be truly valuable! Scarcity drives up prices! Mr. Jiang, didn't Mr. Zhang also say... who should be invited first?"
Xu Hong chuckled and snapped his fingers: "Bingo! President Zhang himself said that for the very first thing we do, we must 'invite' our old friend—Professor Ma Yuanbo!"
"puff--!"
Chen Feng spat out a mouthful of tea, coughing and laughing loudly, "Hahaha! Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"
As soon as he was told to look for Ma Yuanbo, he understood immediately!
Zhang Ming is definitely going to seek cooperation with Wang Qiang!
After all, they're a shaky group without a music variety show production team, and Ma Yuanbo's contract is still with "The Voice of Dreams"!
So, you offended the abbot... uh, offended Teacher Ye Chen and still want to run away?
So you're going to disappear again, huh? Let's see where you hide this time!
Murong Fufu couldn't help but chuckle, shaking her head repeatedly: "President Zhang is trying to weld the 'feud' and the 'power struggle' together as a spectacle."
"Ma Yuanbo took on the challenge of a new song with a simple call to action, and now the stage has been set up for him, and the song has been 'arranged' for him."
"I can already picture his expression when he's standing on stage, facing 'The End of War' or 'The General'..."
As she spoke, she herself shivered.
That scene was filled with top-notch dishes of Ye Chen's caliber.
But Murong Fufu firmly believes that Ma Yuanbo will not be the last one!
Because, even if it weren't for "East Wind Breaks," she would still have to take on this challenge!
But today, after watching Ye Chen record 9 top-notch hit songs in a row!
I'm so glad I didn't keep being so stubborn...
Looking back now, my idea of challenging Ye Chen's new song was like an ant trying to shake a tree—utterly ignorant and arrogant.
Jiang Mengting sneered, "Give them the stage, hand them the microphone, let them do whatever they want. In Ye Chen's words, 'Let them sing, if they can sing, we lose!' I'm just afraid they won't dare to come."
Xu Hong wanted to relax and lean back on the sofa.
But drenched in sweat, he could only lean back on the sofa, analyzing the situation with great clarity:
"Dare not? I doubt it. For 99% of the artists in the industry, popularity is their lifeline."
"Zhang Ming played his hand well—he should collaborate with Wang Qiang's 'Dream Voice,' which would elevate the platform's prestige."
"By associating with Brother Chen, your nuclear-level popularity guarantees enough traffic."
"Plus, the natural buzz surrounding Brother Chen's 'hellish difficulty cover' of his song makes the content quite sensational!"
"With three temptations thrown at you, how many people can resist?"
Chen Feng stroked his chin, his thoughts taking flight.
"So, what we'll be worried about then isn't a lack of visitors, but rather that there are too many people wanting to come. How high should we set the entry requirements?"
