"By the way, Sister Xia, how much are you asking for? It stands to reason that Mr. Li will decide the normal price directly, so why do we need to hold a meeting?"
Lin Yuan, who walked to the conference room with Sister Xia, couldn't help but curiously asked.
Listening to his inquiry, Sister Xia replied nonchalantly: "Not much, I applied for one million."
"?????"
"One million???"
"Sister Xia, you really think highly of me."
After hearing the price, Lin Yuan finally understood why a group meeting was needed for such a trivial matter.
If he were Mr. Li, he would definitely hold this meeting.
Taking Lin Yuan's hometown as an example, at this time in 2014, the average house price in Nanchang was around 6,000. The price of a house 15 kilometers away from the city center was over 4,000, and it was a house built by a big brand company.
After all, one million is enough to buy three 80-square-meter commercial houses.
In this comparison, how could Lin Yuan not be shocked?
Of course, Lin Yuan was not stupid enough to refuse. After all, if the company agreed, it would be a huge benefit to him without any harm.
Think about it, how much fame can a million dollars in publicity fees increase for him? He couldn't estimate it, but he believed it would definitely make him a small hit.
Three minutes later.
The two people came to the conference room, opened the door and saw that most of the middle-level leaders of Xitian Media were gathered here. Mr. Li was sitting in the CEO position. When he saw the two people coming, he nodded and motioned for them to find a seat.
Waited ten minutes.
The entire conference room was already overcrowded.
Mr. Li did not waste time and directly introduced the purpose of this meeting to everyone.
"Today we are convened for this meeting, mainly to discuss the first publicity quota for our artist Lin Yuan under Xitian."
"His new movie "Xiu Chun Knife" is about to be released. The director's feedback information was all unanimously positive, and they all said that the role he played will become popular, so Ning Luoxia applied for an exceptional grant from me.
Request, because the amount is relatively large, let everyone come over and discuss it together."
After introducing the whole story.
Mr. Li set his sights on Ning Luoxia.
Ning Luoxia knew what the other party meant and immediately spoke to everyone.
"According to the feedback I received from the director, Lin Yuan played a very good role in this film. In the words of the director, he became a soul character in the film. Because of this, I personally feel that this is a very good role.
It is a suitable publicity opportunity. At this juncture, if a high amount of publicity expenses are obtained in advance, then the company is likely to create a second-tier or even first-tier actor in a short period of time."
After she finished speaking, everyone had different reactions.
Some nodded slowly and believed in Ning Luoxia's judgment, some sneered and thought that this was Lao Wang's self-promotion, and some remained indifferent and didn't take it to heart.
After a different reaction, Mr. Li also took over.
"Manager Huang, you are the main leader in charge of publicity in the company. Please tell me what you think."
This manager Huang was none other than the leader who asked Lin Yuan before if he wanted to consider singing and dancing rap.
After Mr. Li finished speaking, she immediately began to report carefully and seriously.
"Mr. Li, based on our understanding of Lin Yuan as an artist, including the feedback from his agent, we believe that if the company does not provide publicity resources, he should be able to gain around 50,000 fans through this drama."
"And if the company promotes him as a third-tier artist, he is expected to gain 100,000 to 200,000 fans."
"What we consider here is that we can increase it, but not too much."
When Manager Huang said these words.
Mr. Li glanced at Ning Luoxia, and his meaning was very clear. It's time for you to take the stage. As the boss, I am right, but I must also respect the opinions of each department. If you can convince the other party, I will make the decision. If you say
If you are not convinced by the other party, then it would be inappropriate for me to force the decision.
This is not surprising. At his level, he must be cautious in everything he does.
For example, if most people agree with this public announcement, then he can do it with peace of mind. Even if it fails, it will be the problem of the entire team, not his problem alone.
On the other hand, if most people don't agree and he agrees as the vice president, then he will be solely responsible if something goes wrong. Mr. Li is right to like Lin Yuan, but he doesn't want to take such a big risk. After all,
The price Ning Luoxia asked was one million.
To spend one million in promotional fees on an artist who has just signed a contract less than half a year ago is beyond his authority. If Lin Yuan has been with the company for three to five years, then he can still consider it.
Ning Luoxia understood it. She looked at Manager Huang and asked with a smile: "I wonder how much it can be increased based on Manager Huang's assessment?"
Ning Luoxia's idea is very simple. One million is indeed a bit embarrassing, but you have to give half a million anyway, right?
But ideas are always sexy, and reality is always hard-core.
When she finished asking, Manager Huang almost didn't hesitate and spoke directly: "Thinking from the perspective of our department, 150,000 to 200,000 is the highest, because after all, Lin Yuan, an artist, is not in this drama."
The starring role is not the main actor, but a supporting role. How outstanding can a supporting role be?"
"So, I think around 150,000 is the most appropriate amount. Any amount exceeding this amount is a pure waste of company resources."
Manager Huang spoke very straightforwardly, but these words were very harsh in Ning Luoxia's ears.
What is the level of excellence a supporting role can have?
What is a waste of company resources? Does it mean that Lin Yuan has nothing to do with the company when he becomes popular? If he becomes popular, the more he earns, the more the company will earn.
However, Ning Luoxia did not come here to be vindictive or to offend anyone. She just wanted to get more resources and more money for Lin Yuan, so she suppressed her temper and continued with a smile: "
Manager Huang, I think you misunderstood something. According to my investigation and the director’s feedback..."
But before he could finish speaking, Manager Huang blocked the other party's words.
"Stop it, Ning Luoxia, I hope you don't keep repeating this. Every time you ask our department for money, which one doesn't say it's extravagant? Which one doesn't say it's arrogant? But did you succeed once?
Don’t worry about what I say is so unpleasant. I also think about the company. If everyone does the same thing as you, then no matter how much money our company has, it won’t be enough, right?”
"Also, regarding the director's evaluation, it's not your first day at work, and it's not the first time I've dealt with this matter. Just make a phone call and talk to each other. The director will offend someone for such a trivial matter.
Huh? Who doesn’t know how to say nice things? Therefore, we only believe in the data analysis produced by our department, and the feedback you provide can only be said to be a reference in our eyes!”
