Chapter 316: Grasping with Both Hands
Of course, they all knew it very well.
What is the root of their success?
That is Su Chen and Su Chen's works.
Therefore, they rejected invitations from all parties without hesitation.
Acting in ten works of other people is not as good as acting in one work of Su Chen.
Why bother?
Afterwards, brothers Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun also came over in person to congratulate Su Chen and express their heartfelt gratitude.
Even after two weeks of release, the movie has already created amazing records.
But as of today, the total box office of "Love Is Not Blind" still far exceeded their expectations.
You know, the most popular movie produced by Star Friends in the past did not have a total box office of more than 2 billion.
They never dreamed of it.
The total box office of a single movie of Xingyi can exceed 5 billion!
In fact, the moment they saw the news, they couldn't help but start making plans.
In the movie "Love is Not Blind", they can get 15% of the total box office revenue.
15% of 5 billion is 750 million!
Just one movie brought in such huge profits!
It’s so cool!
And that’s not all!
This movie has set records one after another, and it also symbolizes that Xingyi has regained his glory in the film industry!
Of course not.
They know this is just the beginning.
As long as you hold on to Su Chen's thighs tightly, good days are still ahead!
Su Chen's smile at this moment was extremely brilliant.
To be honest, the total box office of "Love Is Not Blind" also far exceeded his expectations.
When the movie was first released, Su Chen couldn't imagine that the total box office of the movie would eventually reach 5 billion.
The fly in the ointment is.
The money he finally got didn't seem to be that much.
In this time and space, in order to encourage the cultural and entertainment industry, the country does not need to deduct so much miscellaneous money, and the total box office of the movie can be directly shared.
In this way, the cinema chain directly takes 57% of the total box office, and the remaining 43% goes to the investor, producer and distributor.
According to the agreement reached previously with Xingyi, which includes the three parts of investment, production and distribution, Xingyi will take 15% of the total box office!
In the end, the money that Su Chen got was only 28% of the total box office revenue.
28% of 5 billion is only 1.4 billion.
Damn, the movie was so popular, but in the end it didn’t make as much money as the TV series.
When Su Chen did the math, he really felt like he was screwed.
Fortunately, Su Chen is now focusing on both TV and movies, and both are very strong.
As the market opens up, the money earned from movies will definitely increase in the future.
Moreover, the influence and potential of movies cannot be compared with TV series.
Thinking of this, Su Chen felt a little better.
But this also reminded Su Chen.
If funds permit, you must also control the theaters so that your own movies can really make big money.
Why don’t my own movies make as much money as TV shows?
Isn’t it because the cinema chain directly took away 57% of the total box office?
However, acquiring a cinema chain is an impossible task for Su Chen now.
Oh, well, we have to take one step at a time and eat one bite at a time.
Take it easy!
Perhaps, I can slow down the pace of making movies.
Otherwise, this deal is really not a good deal.
Although, the popularity of "Love Is Not Blind" made Su Chen very happy.
But in Su Chen's heart, he had already begun to reflect on the gains and losses here.
After some celebration.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun started to talk business with Su Chen.
Zhong Lei: "Xiao Chen, at present, we have already reached a preliminary agreement with the music platforms in Sakura Country, Malaysia, and Kimchi Country regarding the copyright of your song!"
Su Chen immediately became interested:
"Oh? What are the terms?"
Zhong Jun: "At first, they were only willing to give a 70:30 split at best."
Su Chen frowned.
This is too low. Even if he wants to open up the Asia-Pacific market, he is unwilling to accept such terms.
Fortunately, Zhong Jun immediately stated their preliminary plan after the negotiation:
"But with our persistence, the other party was willing to raise the price."
"It's just that the other party is only willing to sign a gambling agreement."
Su Chen nodded slightly.
It now seems that all parties have learned their lesson. With the previous cases, all parties basically ask to sign a bet agreement when they come forward.
However, Su Chen is not opposed to this approach.
For others, this may be a high-risk behavior.
But for Su Chen, it is a good way to increase profits.
Zhong Jun:
"The prices offered by the three parties, namely, the Kimchi Country, the Sakura Country, and Malaysia, are not much different."
"If a song is downloaded more than 1 million times within a year, the download revenue will be split 80% to 20%. If it exceeds 3 million, it will be split 90% to 10%. If it exceeds 5 million, 100% of the download revenue will go to us!"
Zhong Lei added:
"Because the population there is different, the standards are also different."
"We have tried our best, but the other party seems unwilling to lower the standards any further."
Su Chen took out his cell phone and searched for it.
Zhong Jun could tell at a glance what Su Chen wanted to check.
I gave Su Chen a scientific explanation directly:
"Over there, the top singers' hit songs can get up to 200,000 downloads a month."
"There are relatively more people from Sakura Country."
"So, according to their standards, the terms they offered us were not too demanding."
Su Chen nodded.
According to this algorithm, the conditions offered by the other party are actually quite standard.
"If that's the case, then sign the contract."
At first glance, the revenue from the Asia-Pacific market may not be comparable to that from the domestic market.
However, a little bit of income adds up to a lot and it is also an income that cannot be ignored.
Got Su Chen's approval.
This matter was thus confirmed.
Zhong Jun then placed a financial statement in front of Su Chen.
"Xiao Chen, congratulations on your thriving career and increasing financial resources."
"Last month, the revenue from your songs has arrived and has increased significantly."
"This is the detailed account! Please check it. If there is no problem, the finance department will transfer the money to your account in a moment."
Su Chen opened his mobile phone and compared the data from major music platforms.
There is nothing wrong with it.
He nodded immediately.
In November, the total revenue from new and old songs reached 300 million.
Compared to October, that’s 50 million more.
However, Su Chen was not surprised.
As the number of songs I release continues to increase, and the various incomes from both new and old songs are added together, my total income will definitely increase.
This financial statement also made Yang Mi, Zhao Liying, Deng Ziqi, Liang Bo and other studio artists at the scene jealous.
Oh my god!
The revenue from songs alone is 300 million per month!
How embarrassed you make other people in the entertainment industry feel!
However, they did not have too many negative emotions.
All this money was earned by Brother Chen with his talent, and others can only envy him.
Moreover, each of them has benefited a lot from Su Chen and his works.
Although their income cannot be compared with Su Chen's, their monthly income from commercial performances, endorsements, etc. is also an astonishing figure.
In the entertainment industry, he is considered one of the top figures.
Thinking of this, they were filled with gratitude.
If it weren't for Brother Chen, they wouldn't know where to find a cool place right now, and how could they have such a beautiful scenery now.
After explaining each matter clearly.
Zhong Lei and Zhong Jun left in a happy mood.
Now, Su Chen has released dozens of songs.
The domestic download revenue and copyright revenue alone are a considerable sum.
If the overseas downloads of a song increase by 5 million in a year, how much revenue will be increased?
Thinking about the prospect of making money, the Zhong brothers got excited.
Sure enough, that afternoon.
Su Chen received the money from Xingyi’s Finance Department.
"bite!"
"Received 300 million!"
Then.
Su Chen also received 10.025 million in novel subscription revenue and 9.98 million in comic subscription revenue last month.
After deducting 5,000 yuan for living expenses.
The system donated all the money to the China Disabled Persons Charity Foundation.
In this way, Su Chen's system real-time task progress reached 13.2394%!
Although, at this moment, the entire network is boiling with excitement over the great success of Su Chen's first movie.
But Fan Chengcheng is undoubtedly an exception.
He looked at Su Chen, who was furious once again, and felt extremely depressed.
Originally he had hoped that Su Chen would stumble at the Asia Pacific Music Festival, but the result was this.
Su Chen is popular all over Asia and the Pacific.
Although I also had some fun in the country of Kimchi.
Damn, now on the Internet, people are either discussing how many records Su Chen’s movies have created, or discussing Su Chen’s music videos, which have been exported to Asia-Pacific and can become the pride of China.
It makes it unpleasant to surf the Internet!
Helplessly, Fan Chengcheng could only visit the official websites of major charitable foundations.
Yes, he must verify whether Su Chen’s later income was donated to charity.
In this way, he can take the next step in a targeted manner.
…
Kimchi Entertainment Network TV Station.
Deputy Director's Office.
Zheng Donglong looked at the agreement signed between Su Chen and Xingyi sent back by the business manager.
A smug smile appeared on his face.
“That’s good!”
"All the songs that Su Chen has released will be available on the music platform of 'Kimchi Entertainment Network' in the future!"
Yes, Zheng Donglong has already determined that Su Chen is the traffic password.
As long as Su Chen's work is handled well, it can bring huge benefits to the "Paochi Entertainment Network TV Group".
If this continues, the position of director will definitely be in Zheng Donglong's pocket!
In the other deputy director's office next door.
The situation is quite the opposite.
"Is there something wrong with Zheng Donglong's brain?"
"Does he think that Su Chen is a god? No matter what Su Chen has, bring it all in?"
At this time, Sun Xinghan was very depressed and kept complaining.
Director Zheng is really something. He always approves Zheng Donglong’s plans. What’s going on?
Could it be that Director Zheng is now biased towards Zheng Donglong?
He's gone too far!
but……
Looking at the terms of the agreement, Sun Xinghan's face was full of contempt.
Downloads exceed 1 million per year, 80:20 split?
This clause is too unrealistic!
In Korea, the number of singers whose songs can be downloaded over one million times a year can be counted on one hand!
This is the country of Kimchi, do you think you are in China?
How many people would pay for Su Chen’s songs?
"Zheng Donglong, you will definitely shoot yourself in the foot! Just wait and see!"
After carefully studying the terms of the agreement, Sun Xinghan suddenly felt a little gloating.
Fine, do whatever you want.
Zheng Donglong, it would be best if you torture yourself to death!
"Su Chen's song will be released on the 'Kimchi Entertainment Online Music Platform' at 8pm?"
Li Taimin was a little surprised when he saw the news.
Is Paochi Entertainment Network TV station tied to Su Chen?
We just invited Su Chen to participate in a dance variety show, and then we introduced Su Chen’s TV series. Now, we have packaged all of Su Chen’s songs and introduced them here.
Isn’t this too much of a loss?
In Li Taimin's impression, no investor in Korea has ever valued a Chinese artist so much.
Crazy!
Kimchi Entertainment Network TV is absolutely crazy.
But this makes it more interesting.
After complaining for a while, Li Taimin thought about things that were closely related to himself.
His new mini music album "Advice" will also be released on the "Melon Music Platform" at 8 o'clock tonight.
In this way, it would be like a confrontation with Su Chen from a distance.
The last time on the stage of "Dancing2022", Li Taimin was completely conquered by Su Chen's street dance.
Now, does it mean that my chance to turn the tables has come?
You know, dance is an art of body language.
But pop songs are different.
That is simply the art of language.
If you can’t even understand the language, how many people would like to listen?
Although Su Chen showed a strong ability to control the scene at the Asia Pacific Music Festival, rock music and songs with a brisk rhythm are inherently infectious, aren't they?
Li Taimin felt that with the studio version of the song and the fact that it was his own home court, his chances of winning were very great.
Therefore, Li Taimin is very much looking forward to this showdown coming soon.
At this moment, on the Korean Internet, all kinds of gossip netizens have naturally linked the release of Su Chen's song and Li Taimin's new song together.
"In terms of dancing, Li Taimin is no match for Su Chen. In terms of music, I wonder what the result will be when the two compete!"
"I love Su Chen so much, but unfortunately, I don't understand the song she sings! I believe many people are similar to me!"
"If we compare looks, Su Chen wins without a doubt!"
"Is there anyone who downloads Su Chen's songs unconditionally like me?"
"The person above is out of his mind! Lee Taemin Oppa's songs are better!"
“…”
At the same time, various entertainment media and commentators also expressed their opinions.
Explore the impact and consequences of Suchen's full-scale entry into the Korean entertainment industry.
"Kimchi Entertainment Network TV's actions were a bit impulsive!"
"Can Suchen achieve overall success here?"
"What Kimchi Entertainment Network is doing is more like hype!"
“…”
They conducted an in-depth analysis of the pros and cons of Su Chen's entry into the Korean entertainment industry.
The final conclusion is surprisingly consistent:
It is unlikely that Su Chen can replicate the magic in China!
