Chapter 140 Billionaires and New Companies and New Artists (Update)
"Mr. Wei, happy New Year's Day."
"Happy New Year, boss."
"..."
Early in the morning after the New Year's Day holiday, Wei Yang came to the company and was immediately greeted by beaming congratulations from the employees.
He couldn't help but joke: "Are you so happy to come back to work on New Year's Day?"
A female employee boldly answered the call: "I just want to go to work and see the boss. I'm happy not to be paid."
"Okay, let's take a note from the finance department. Her salary won't be paid this month."
"Ah, boss, I was wrong."
Wei Yang is mostly serious when he is with the middle and senior management, but when he is not working, he is still very easy-going to ordinary employees below. He also likes to liven up the atmosphere and is very popular among employees.
However, it is certainly a joke for female employees to say that they are willing to visit Wei Yang for free, but it is indeed a new benefit for female employees of Blue Whale.
Since "My Love from the Star" became a hit, his popularity has soared and he has become a top male idol with countless female fans.
This group of female Blue Whale employees are the ones closest to Wei Yang. After work, they can occasionally look at the boss and have a good time. If you tell it, they are very envied by fans.
It is said that all the female college students in Shanghai City want to join the Blue Whale, and Bende is the handsome boss Wei Yang.
If you can go one step further, come to a building near the water, first come first, and catch this golden turtle son-in-law, it will be both human and financial. I don’t know how many girls will be tempted by it...
It’s not just people outside who think this way, there are also a lot of female employees inside the company who think this way.
Feeling a few fiery glances, Wei Yang came to his office in a strange way and complained to Lei Chun who was waiting here.
"I feel a bit like Tang Monk now. I would want to take a bite out of any female seductress I see."
Lei Chun laughed, Wei Yang was already handsome, but there were many handsome guys after all. Even if there were few who could compare with Wei Yang, they would not be crushed.
After all, a man's charm lies not only in his face, but also in other aspects.
Even if there is a good skin, it is nothing more than a silver-like wax gun tip that is of no use.
But now that Wei Yang has become popular, in addition to his good looks and temperament, he also has extremely high fame + status + money + talent and other bonuses. The filter halo around him is so thick that it can fly, and his charm value is higher than
Originally it had doubled several times, but now it has become the Tang Monk Meat that everyone covets.
After joking a few words, the two sat down and Lei Chun reported on his work, which mainly focused on endorsements and invitations to the crew.
There is no need to say more about the former. Even though Wei Yang has already accepted and negotiated for more than a dozen endorsements, there is still a steady stream of endorsements coming to him.
According to team estimates, Wei Yang can accept almost 30 endorsements if he wants to reach endorsement saturation under the premise of high threshold.
But in fact, Wei Yang will not accept so many, because many endorsement areas are conflicting, and the endorsements are too many and too complicated, which will also have an impact on other aspects.
So in the most ideal situation, a dozen endorsements are enough. If you want to make more money, just bite the bullet and get 20+.
This will relatively not affect Wei Yang's other aspects. If there are other high-quality endorsements in the future, there will be room for continued negotiations.
What Wei Yang means now is that he has enough endorsements.
Popular brands include Pepsi and KFC, high-end brands include Gucci and Mercedes-Benz, and online brands include Sina Weibo, Canon cameras, Yanjing Beer, Qingyang shampoo, Gillette razors, etc.
Basically they are all brands, their quality reputation is guaranteed to a certain extent, and their prices are generous.
At present, he still has several types of endorsements in his hand, which are waiting for a price. For the remaining endorsements, unless they are particularly good, Wei Yang will most likely not accept them for the time being.
The above-mentioned endorsements have brought Wei Yang at least 80 million yuan in income.
The outside world speculates that Wei Yang is a multi-millionaire, but in fact, he is now a serious billionaire.
Of course, this amount of income also indicates that Wei Yang's commercial endorsement income will decline significantly in the next 2 to 3 years, but this is enough.
Wei Yang doesn't just focus on artists making money, business and investment are his fundamentals.
In the past, Wei Yang's weakness was that his foundation was too weak and he was often unable to use his hands and feet. With this quick money, he can do a lot more.
Wei Yang has already made a rough plan for this money. He will inject 20 million into Blue Whale, keep another sum in his own hand, and invest the rest in Red Shark Game Company.
The people over there have almost been recruited, so we can't do large-scale productions, and there will be no problem with ordinary games.
Even before that, the project of the game "My Love from the Star" with the same name had already begun. The theme is love development, and it also contains elements such as dress-up. As soon as Wei Yang received the money, he immediately stepped up production.
Wei Yang has been reluctant to accept game endorsements from outside. On the one hand, he is cautious, and on the other hand, he is reserved for this game.
In addition to making his own games, Wei Yang also plans to seek investment and acquire some original space-time game companies.
For example, 37 Interactive Entertainment, MiHoYo and other well-known game companies in later generations are only in their infancy and have not even been established yet.
If Wei Yang starts early, he can get in and buy the bottom, or even take the blame and integrate the team into the Red Shark.
Especially MiHoYo. This game company is simply a golden mountain. "Genshin Impact" has attracted billions of dollars in just two years. However, several of the founders are still in school and have not even started their own businesses. There is a lot of room for maneuver.
.
As I said before, Wei Yang was reborn too late, and many industries were no longer accessible, and it was not easy for him to intervene in the layout.
The game is extremely profitable and has a strong cash flow. It can even complement and cooperate with Wei Yang's main business of film and television. It will become an important industry territory for Wei Yang in the future.
In addition to the game company, Wei Yang has established another [Green Crab Venture Capital], and he will also put some money here later, specifically for investment and financial management.
Although Wei Yang has never invested, he still remembers some ways to make a fortune in the future.
For example, which stocks are valuable, which industry or company is more promising, and what outlets can support investment, or buy something to put aside...
With clairvoyance and precise investment, if the operation is good, the income may even be as good as that of Red Shark Company.
Biting off more than he could chew, Wei Yang didn't want to become the richest man, nor did he want to run a big business and become a business tycoon.
However, it is impossible to completely get rid of capital by relying solely on the film and television industry, so he has to gather more wool from other places to maintain his independence as much as possible.
Wei Yang is not prepared to bother too much. Once these companies are completed, it will be enough for him to be financially free.
Even if the benefits of rebirth are gone in the future, he can retire calmly and enjoy a simple and boring life...
Only Wei Yang himself knows this, and many people don't even know that Wei Yang has several companies outside.
Including his confidant Lei Chun, they only knew that Wei Yang had made some business arrangements outside, but did not know the specific situation.
After talking about the endorsements, Lei Chun talked about the script invitations. The outside world also knows that Wei Yang has his own projects, and I am afraid he will not easily accept TV series, so most of them are movies.
Commercial films mostly feature second and third actors and supporting actors, which is not surprising. No matter how popular TV dramas are, they are still two different worlds in movies.
Huang Xiaoming was regarded as the number one niche actor in Mainland China before, and he also starred in commercial films for Hong Kong and Taiwan actors.
Some mainland small and medium-budget films have invited Wei Yang to be the male lead, but the quality of the scripts is somewhat uneven, and there are also some art films.
""Guanyin Mountain"? The director Li Yu is the one who made "Apple", Fan...'s good friend?"
Lei Chun glanced at him calmly, feeling a little regretful that Boss Mao was so familiar with the movie "Apple".
Wei Yang didn't know what Lei Chun was thinking, otherwise he would definitely slander him.
What regrets does he have? He has personally experienced the plots of "Apple", some of which are even more exciting than the movie plots.
Lei Chun introduced: "It is said that Bing Bing was the one who pulled the strings. Both she and the producer wanted you to play with her as a second partner, so that it would be more topical."
"How much is the salary?"
"It's not high. It's a small cost. It's like 12 million. Bingbing's salary is zero + investment."
"Tsk, tsk, this is for a prize."
Wei Yang was convinced, but he was not very interested in the movie. Putting aside the salary, the key point——
"My acting skills are good enough to win awards in literary films."
Wei Yang does not shy away from his acting skills. He is quite good at it. He is more than enough to act in an idol drama and to act in a TV series.
However, most of the actors who star in literary films are in pursuit of awards, and the professional requirements for actors are very high.
Wei Yang can act, but he doesn't think he has the ability to win awards, and if you want to win awards, sometimes it's not just about your ability, but also the lack of network resources and influence from all parties.
Many crew members thought they could win awards to tempt Wei Yang, a top actor, to join the cast. After all, professional actors, no matter what, all have the dream of becoming an actor or actress.
Wei Yang did think about how he could one day reach the top and become emperor, but he had no obsession with this aspect.
"Guanyin Mountain" is obviously Fan Xiaopang's movie. She is naturally busy and busy, but it has little effect on Wei Yang. If Boss Wei is free, he can just help, but he really doesn't have time right now.
"Let's show the movie first. At present, our company's business is still the main business. If there is an opportunity in the future, our company will produce its own movies."
Wei Yang was not particularly tempted by the invitations he received, and he had little interest in entering the film market. He planned to continue working on the small screen and get Blue Whale on track before considering the big screen.
Lei Chun was a little regretful. In the circle, movie actors automatically ranked higher. It was a pity that Wei Yang didn't rush in while the fire was coming.
But having said that, Wei Yang is not an ordinary artist. There are always choices to be made between personal and company development, and the experiences of other artists cannot be applied to him.
As Wei Yang's boss, Lei Chun actually couldn't control him too much. Wei Yang made many decisions on his own, and he was just a support person.
However, other artists in the company, Lei Chun, the director of the artist management department, are still very impressive.
After talking about Wei Yang, he took the opportunity to report on the artist's work during this period.
Currently, in addition to Wei Yang, Blue Whale has four signed artists, Zhao Ji, Zhao Liying, Li Jiahang and Lin Gengxin.
This junior theater student was signed to Blue Whale at the same time as Li Jiahang, and he was chosen as the male lead in "Love, Old Times".
Wei Yang still had an impression of this young man. He was handsome, had a good personality, and had no obvious flaws. He was still worthy of praise.
When the Blue Whale franchise opens in the future, it is impossible to have only Wei Yang as the male protagonist. Li Jiahang does not have enough idol temperament, and Lin Gengxin is a good replacement for Wei Yang.
In addition to the four artists mentioned above, Lei Chun is also stepping up his search for the female lead in "East Palace". According to Wei Yang's scope, the candidate has been found, and the contract will be officially signed before the Spring Festival.
After the initial accumulation in 2009, whether it is film and television production or artist management, 2010 is destined to be the starting point for Blue Whale to start to show its talents...
