The Rise of Korean Entertainment

Although Li Menglong has always been on the side of the fans, it is a pity that the person he is talking to now is not a fan. It’s okay if he is not a fan, but he is still a devilish president, which makes Li Menglong have no choice but to hide himself. To communicate with this person from the bottom of his heart, after all, he has to convince the other person.

It is said that girls releasing albums should not be a problem for any other company. To put it bluntly, it should be that the company begs girls to release albums, but SW just does the opposite. Who can let it? Girls can't make money for SW. This isn't the original sin, but it's close to it.

As the president of SW, Lee Eun-hee naturally has to devote more energy to profitable businesses, such as movies and variety shows. As for the girls, it cannot be said to be a trouble, but this kind of hard work and hard work will not make any money in the end. It doesn't really feel that wonderful.

It is said that when the contract was signed, the unprecedented 91% share was indeed partly taken care of by the girls. Both Lee Menglong and Lee Soonkyu admitted this, but I have to say that Lee Eunhee also nodded at that time, and although he could not make any money from them. There is money, but the attention, fame, and image it brings to SW are all intangible wealth, and they are the kind that cannot be bought with money. After all, Girls' Generation only has this one.

So rationally speaking, at least it was not a loss-making deal at the time, it could barely be considered a mutual benefit, but it couldn't be tolerated. Now we have been cooperating for several years, and the girls are still them, but SW is no longer the one that was called a potential stock in the past. Silly boy.

Judging from SW's current size and development prospects, it's not too much to say that he is rich, handsome, and rich. Except for those "second generation rich" who can't compare, the generation who started from scratch are already considered absolute winners.

Once this person gets rich, he will inevitably have some behaviors such as liking the new and hating the old. Of course, the girls are still doing well, but SW can only borrow the fame of the girls. It is already quite limited, so it will give money to release albums for the girls. Isn't it just a unilateral contribution?

Of course, these ideas are all from the perspective of capital. SW is still very humane. After all, Li Menglong's words are still effective, but you have to get through Li Enxi first: "You can't just eat up and wipe it out and then fall out." Recognize me, it’s not good to do this!”

"Nonsense, what if I don't be strict with the report at the end of the year? Can you cover it up for me when it looks ugly?" What Li Enxi said was naturally righteous, and she would be responsible for the entire company.

"Hey, how much money can they use? Besides, you still have 10% of the 91% share. You shouldn't be able to compensate!" Li Menglong kept saying good things here.

It's just that he obviously doesn't know enough about this aspect. You must know that this 10% is not given to SW in vain. Although this 10% refers to pure profit, all the early investments will eventually be deducted, but the accounts cannot be calculated like this. .

From the beginning of preparation, invitations to songs, music videos, dances, promotions and even CDs all cost money, and the sum is definitely not a small amount. Let’s not talk about how slow the final payment of this money will be. sw advanced it, and it was advanced free of charge!

If the money will eventually be returned, what about the labor that was arranged throughout the process? A bunch of people are surrounding the girls, and the 10% profit may not be enough to cover the ordinary salary of this labor. As for overtime pay and the like, they don't even bother to include it.

The most important thing is that this album itself is not much. This may be different from what many fans think. After all, the sales of the girls' albums in the millions sounds very bluffing, but I dare not say that they are losing money and making money. , but it’s true that you don’t make much money from the album alone, and you may not make as much from selling peripherals.

The return of singers can be regarded as very popular if they can make money. Some half-famous singers are losing money on their comeback, relying on subsequent advertisements, commercial performances and even concerts to make a comeback.

Returning is equivalent to an early investment for the singers, but it seems difficult for SW to recoup the cost after the investment, because the subsequent dividends are still the same, so it looks like they are working in vain.

In the end, Li Menglong was really speechless, because numbers can't lie. As for the emotional card, he was too embarrassed to say it. After all, Li Enxi seemed to have a hard time doing it. In this case, he could only act as an intermediary. bridge: "Otherwise, depending on how much the company wants to earn, I'll make up for the gap!"

After hearing this, Li Enxi couldn't help but shook her head. In fact, what she just said was somewhat intentional. She wanted to see what Li Menglong would do in the end. It was almost as she guessed. Did he not know how much money he needed to make up? ah?

But having said it all, Li Eunxi will naturally not continue talking. If Li Menglong pays this money, it will be a blow to the entire company, not to mention the impact on the girls and other artists, so there are many It is not easy to run a company at this time. There are many things to consider.

"Okay, okay, I will prepare it soon. It's still early anyway. Do they have any composers or directors they know? They can also contact them. You also know that there are not many people in the company who are good at this. They can get If you get so much profit sharing, you will naturally have to do more!" Li Enxi finally gave an affirmative answer.

Li Menglong was naturally happy like this. He would save as much as he could, not to mention not even a little bit: "Don't worry about this. They have their own album. If they don't do the work, who will do it for them? You won't need a few people from the company." Yes, let them do it themselves!"

Li Enxi was obviously satisfied with Li Menglong's answer. In this case, Li Menglong naturally didn't mind saying a few nice words. After all, he was also a professional in flattering: "As for the possibility of losing money, I still have my movie, so I will strictly control it. A box office hit!”

Li Enxi finally finished admiring a few pieces of clothing, so she took the time to glare at him. It was quite easy to learn how to brag after being around girls for a long time, and it was also a big hit at the box office? If he says it's going to be a big hit, it's going to be a big hit. Which director dares to say that casually? Is he bloated?

This doubt can really be said to be well-founded. As an expert, Li Enxi undoubtedly has more say. To be honest, Li Menglong really does not dare to give some specific guarantees. For example, if the box office does not reach much, he will pay for it out of his own pocket. Then you might have to pay a lot of money.

Since it is the girls' affairs, they naturally have to finish it by themselves, so Li Menglong came up with a bad idea: "Have we not discussed their remuneration yet? Except for Seohyun and Yoona, who have some box office appeal, the rest are For newcomers, just give them a price as long as you feel comfortable with it, I have absolutely no objections here!"

"Is this okay?" Li Enxi was a little excited. The operation shouldn't be too shady. As a film producer and the president of the girls' company, she has dual identities. The key is that Li Menglong also has the same status as the director and the girls' agent. , almost perfectly involves the entire process of negotiating remuneration among girls. It depends entirely on their own conscience to give more or less, and there is no doubt that Li Menglong's current conscience is very bad!

But he also has reasons to numb himself. Isn't this equivalent to using an actor's salary to subsidize music? This kind of thing is not uncommon in the industry. Everyone is a musician with a dream. Does the dream have a price? No amount of money can buy you your dreams!

It's just that not everyone is as evil-minded as Li Menglong. At least Li Enxi hesitated and couldn't do it, but she still had to be worthy of her status as the president. In this case, she might as well look like Li Menglong and get her share. It can be regarded as a shareholding with remuneration.

It looks much more comfortable this way. Of course, if it becomes a big hit, their salary will be a bit ridiculously high, but you can't only consider the good aspects in everything, what if you lose your panties? In that way, the girls would really get paid to work part-time. Li Eunxi obviously liked this model of equal risk sharing.

"Then it's settled, aren't you leaving yet? How many things are you going to do if you send me some clothes?" Li Enxi kicked people out here directly. If you want to come over for discussion, just keep sending clothes. , otherwise he is not welcome in this room.

This can be regarded as a replica of the person who turned his back and refused to admit it. Fortunately, he barely achieved his goal. At least it was not a loss. It was just that the grievances he felt in his heart had to be vented. So Li Menglong secretly sneaked into the second floor. Did these people really want to Him?

Li Menglong jumped directly from the door to the center with a strong resentment. Then he put his hands behind his back, lowered his head and stared at the group of people from an overhead angle, as if to find the lazy ones. Sure enough, he looked like this Zunrong made everyone who was originally relaxed on the second floor become nervous instantly. The surprise effect was quite successful, so successful that many people broke out in cold sweat behind their backs.

However, Li Menglong didn't have time to enjoy this joy at all, because he realized a small mistake. The conversation he had just talked with Li Enxi for so long actually only involved the album, and he didn't say a word about the concert that was planned later. I mean, what should I do?

Of course, it is impossible for him to go up now. So much effort has been spent on an album. Concerts involve more manpower and funds, but optimistically, concerts may bring sw. Part of the profit, at least compared to the album, but the pessimistic thing is that the money is still not enough to impress Li Enxi.

But the good news is not without it. With the popularity of girls, I can’t say that it covers the whole world, but at least Asia is quite good. Basically, several major countries can hold a few concerts. This will expand SW’s overseas influence. It's definitely a help.

As far as Li Menglong knows, SW has been planning in this area. As for the specific extent of completion, he doesn't know. After all, the Korean market is enough for SW to develop at present. Overseas, it can only be said to be prepared for a rainy day. Li Enxi doesn't know How big her heart is, but this is undoubtedly a good reason to convince her.

On this basis, Li Menglong didn't mind adding some insurance, such as killing first and playing later. That's right, he decided not to talk to Li Enxi about the concert yet, and asked Li Enxi to come over after the movie was filmed and the news was spread. Even though he may be a scolder, the result should always be good!

After making up his mind, Li Menglong stopped worrying. Could Li Enxi still kill him anyway? In this case, I still care about everyone sitting here: "Why are you looking at me like this? As soon as I thought that you would be lonely in the office without me, I immediately left the girls and ran back. Isn't it interesting?" "

It was obvious that no one on the other side wanted to answer this question. They were more curious about another question. For example, is Xu Xian not coming today? After getting the affirmative answer, the mood of this group of people became a lot lower. Today is destined to be very difficult!

The bitter mood of this group of people is destined not to be understood by Li Menglong. After all, the environment in which we get along is different. Those people have too little contact with girls, so they will always miss them, but Li Menglong can be the same as them. ? Now, not only is the sky high and the birds can fly, but I am also running freely in the wilderness. In short, every breath carries the taste of freedom.

Of course, this cannot be said to be too depressing for Li Menglong and the girls to live together. It can only be said that people still need some personal space occasionally. As the saying goes, distance creates beauty. Li Menglong believes that when he sees the girls again tonight, he will think that they are particularly beautiful. of.

Sitting in a familiar seat, Xu Xian was missing across from him. Fortunately, this also reminded Li Menglong that he walked out again instead of rushing to work. Because he was not there today, he still had to call a few people over. The reason for running errands for girls is not that the girls are too pretentious, but that their celebrity status makes them really inconvenient in many cases.

"Okay, then you guys should work harder today!" Li Menglong warned here: "A lot of people will pass by there today. You go to Li Shungui and ask for a bank card. If there is anything you need to pay then, You grab some space and don’t let outsiders spend money.”

It’s hard to say how generous Li Menglong is. After all, the money is not his. However, when this kind of face-saving project should be performed, we cannot shrink back. I have to say that this kind of tedious detailed work is one of the embodiments of Li Menglong’s value. Otherwise, do you really think that he is only responsible for flattering you every day? In that case, wouldn't he really become a pretty boy?

The people here were arranged to go there, and they dialed Li Shungui's number again. After all, they needed to communicate, but Li Menglong hung up immediately after the call was made, because if nothing else, she should be playing on her mobile phone now. As for the game, this delay is huge.

Sighing silently, Li Menglong felt that he was a little too humble? He just hesitated and still didn’t make the call. In his own words, there were so many beauties, why did he have to go to Lee Soon Kyu?

"Huh? Oppa hasn't left yet? That's great, bring me a cup of coffee!" Pani said happily. The coffee in the store today was really bad, and she was too embarrassed to say it. .

"Coffee? Do you want fried chicken?" Li Menglong said helplessly: "People from the company will come over soon. You can just give them instructions then. If there is something..."

"I know, I can contact you anytime if I have anything to do!" Pani said in a tone of why you are like this, but maybe he was a little too self-absorbed. Li Menglong's following words were not like this: "Uh... it's best if nothing happens. Don’t look for me!”
