Chapter One of the Night

Chapter 150: Made A Fortune!

Chapter 150 Made a fortune!

On Friday, Xu Zhenghua suddenly called Liu Junxian, saying that he was a little tight recently, and wanted to release the album and single of “Unfinished Love for You” that had already been released, as well as the album that had already been released at the beginning of last month. The single disc “Our Love” that has been on the market for more than 20 days has been sold for more than 20 days, and it will be settled once.

It was clearly stated in the original distribution agency agreement that the settlement cycle for both parties was half a year, but when the sales of a single album exceeded one million, Zhenghua Music has the right to propose a settlement.

This is the norm in the industry.

With the sales volume of “I Can’t End Love You”, Xu Zhenghua will definitely meet the settlement requirements no matter when he proposes to settle. In the current honeymoon period of cooperation between the two parties, Liu Junxian did not refuse.

Although…that’s a lot of money.

Even though he knew the money was not his own, he wanted it to lie in the company’s account for a few more days.

This is the first settlement between the two parties after the original issuance agency contract was signed.

For this settlement, Xu Zhenghua brought a complete team of accountants, headed by his personal accountant Xie Shuyi, and equipped with three assistants, while Venus dispatched five people to cooperate with the audit and explanation.

Accounts are basically fine.

The albums and singles of “Unfinished Love For You” have been on the market for nearly two months. The sales accounts that can be found so far, the album of “Unfinished Love for You”, have sold as high as 24.63 million in Daming territory. The overseas part is divided into two parts, one is sold by the self-distribution channel of Qixing Records, which is more than 3.81 million copies, and the other is issued by distributors in various countries, up to 8.04 million copies.

In other words, the current global statistic sales of this album have reached more than 36.49 million copies!

To be honest, Xu Zhenghua was stunned when he heard this data.

When the album was released less than a month ago, the sales exceeded 10 million. This was revealed by Qi Xingxing himself. Of course he knew it. Later, he heard that it had exceeded 20 million copies – but, regardless of the previous 10 million, or The subsequent 20 million must not include overseas channels!

In fact, the practice of the record industry generally only refers to domestic sales.

However, the six major industries in the industry have certain overseas distribution capabilities.

The overseas distribution channels of Qixingxing have always been the most powerful even among the top six in the industry. I usually don’t know it, but it’s obvious at this time.

Previously, Xu Zhenghua’s partner, Xiaodao Records, was completely released by Xipo Records, which is also one of the six majors in the industry. However, until now, the overseas sales of “Short Hair” that Xu Zhenghua made for An Xiaojing in the first half of last year have also been released. There is no specific account yet!

It’s been a year!

Venus is more powerful. They are in ten countries in Southeast Asia, in Qiongnan and Xinqiongzhou in the south. They not only have distribution companies, but even have their own holding companies. It is said that in many countries in Europe and America, they may also hold shares and issue shares. Giants, or have perennial stable partners.

Therefore, his overseas distribution, the progress is fast, the sales are fierce, and the payment is fast.

Of course, for overseas sales of albums, the income will be discounted, and there will be an agency fee there.

But that’s pretty good too.

In short, it is an extra amount of money, and it can be obtained very quickly.

Corresponding to the sales data of the album, the sales of the single “Unfinished Love For You” has reached more than 11.47 million copies in China, more than 2.26 million copies sold through its own overseas channels, and more than 5.88 million copies sold by other overseas distributors.

The total global sales of    single discs is approaching the 20 million mark!

The double diamonds of the single disc have not even affected the sales of the entire album – one can imagine how popular this song is!

As for “Our Love”, the sales figures are much weaker by comparison.

It’s a “normal” hit single.

The domestic sales of this single disc that can be counted are more than 1.94 million, and overseas data are already available, but they are very few – this song has not yet started to hit the charts overseas, and most of the current sales are just Because Xu Zhenghua helped bring the goods many times – more than 280,000 copies were sold through their own overseas channels, and more than 430,000 copies were sold through channels from other publishers.

The account is clear and there is no problem, the money is easy to calculate.

The album “Love You Never End” has sold a total of over 28.46 million copies domestically and abroad through Venus’ own channels. This must have steadily exceeded the incentive line stipulated in the contract, but it was stipulated when we negotiated it at the beginning. Now, 20 million copies are capped, and 58% is capped, so the sales share that Zhenghua Music can get has only increased by 3%, from 55% to 58% – this part is the largest one, up to There are more than 263.94 million.

The single disc of “Love You Never End” has sold more than 13.73 million copies through its own channels. Currently, this part can get a 57% share, but it is still as high as 46.88 million.

“Our Love” has sold more than 2.22 million copies in its own channels. According to the 55% share, Zhenghua Music can share more than 7.31 million copies this time.

Then there are other overseas channels. After deducting the different agency fees of each company, the share ratio is greatly reduced, and that set of incentives is not applicable.

The album “Love You Never Ends” sold more than 8.04 million copies from other channels. In the final comprehensive calculation, Zhenghua Music can only get 33% of the total – 42.94 million.

The single disc of “Unfinished Love For You” can get even lower share, about 32%, with more than 5.88 million copies sold, and 11.37 million in hand.

The more than 430,000 copies of “Our Love” from other channels are even better than nothing – 830,000 were recorded.

Roughly, three discs and various complicated channels, this time Zhenghua Music can settle a total of 373.28 million cash from Venus Records!

“Everyone said that singers are rich, but as far as I know, there are so many domestic singers, first-line, big coffee, Tianwang, Tianhou, who can take 100 million yuan in cash from the record company at one time. After all these years, there are no more than ten people. , a total of no more than 20 times in total – it must be said that Sun Deming alone has to account for about ten times! Zhenghua, one-time settlement of nearly 400 million in cash from the record company, this is probably something that even Sun Deming can’t do. thing!”

A group of financial and accounting personnel are still doing the final finishing work there. Here Liu Junxian is holding a wine glass and can’t help but express his emotion, “Little 400 million, Zhenghua! If the news leaks, sell the building , sell cars, sell planes, sell yachts, or even sell daughters, you can directly blow up your agent’s phone!”

Xu Zhenghua laughed, “A lot of it belongs to the company, hehe, I only account for a small part of it!”

Just this sentence made Liu Junxian choked hard!

What company is not a company, the label of Zhenghua Music obviously belongs to you!

Sole proprietorship!

But at this time, he had no intention of refuting anything.

Such a large sum of money, under normal circumstances, no matter what company, it will definitely be delayed for one more day – it will be settled with you on the last day of the contract permit, and the payment will be made within seven working days after the settlement is completed. One – Liu Junxian didn’t even do this kind of thing, how could it be unpleasant in other things.

As “I Can’t Stop Loving You” sold out, looking back at this time, he already understood that at least in the cooperation with Xu Zhenghua, he had lost the ability to restrain him.

You have to coax him to make the next album seriously.

After all, he is now a real humanoid self-propelled money printing machine!

It is conservatively estimated that this year will be the absolute best year in the six years since I took over Venus Records because of “I Can’t End Love You”, and the profit margin and other aspects will also be absolutely dazzling.

If you lose control over people, you can’t make money without earning it, right?

“Come on, take a look!”

The two are chatting about Yuan Wei’s album release this year, and Liu Defeng’s release of a single. Xu Zhenghua is also planning to ask Liu Junxian, one of the best in the industry, for advice. If he wants to expand the structure of Zhenghua Music, what specific What is the operation method, but Xie Shuyi came over with a total bill.

The number of    is very large, there are many accounts, nearly ten people, from checking, reviewing to calculating, it has been more than two hours before and after, and now the result is finally calculated.

Xu Zhenghua took the list, glanced at it briefly, and raised his head, “Are you okay?”

Xie Shuyi nodded, controlled not to look at Liu Junxian, and replied, “In the accounts that can be seen, there is no problem.”

That is, in some places, she still feels something is wrong!

Inevitably, it’s not even just the record circle, the movie circle hides the box office and makes fake accounts. When you came out, what you felt was wrong was no longer a problem, but a new wrong place appeared again.

Hide the account!

Make a time difference, anyone can do it.

Not to mention that it is difficult to find out, even if it takes some effort to find out, it is really unnecessary.

Everyone cooperated just right, and they were very happy with each other. It was still too early to deploy a large-scale audit method, which caused the two sides to tear their faces all at once.

Even if there is, this fight will be about four years later.

“That’s it!”

Xu Zhenghua smiled at her, without even looking at extra eyes, she knew that Xie Shuyi already understood what she meant, so she took the pen and signed her name.

But with his smile, Liu Junxian was suddenly startled, turned his head and looked at Xie Shuyi seriously, then suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile, “Hello, are you…Ms. Xie?”— Xu Zhenghua has two very beautiful senior sisters in his hometown, and they are also a pair of sisters. After he became famous, he quickly took the two as his own. He bought a large villa for the two in the imperial capital and gave them directly to others. Jinwuzang Jiao, of course, Liu Junxian is very clear about this matter.

Even he knew about the pair of sisters surnamed Xie, which made An Xiaojing and Jin Xiaoqing very jealous.

When    mentioned them, especially the “big thank you”, they both looked very respectful and fearful.

It is said that Xu Zhenghua is particularly fond of them both.

This is not uncommon.

After a man has money, he likes to pack a few girls, not to mention in the entertainment circle, it is not uncommon in any circle – this in itself is one of the signs of a man’s success in certification.

Don’t talk about childhood friendships, just say that other people’s beautiful women are right, they are more valuable, right?

But now, he first noticed that Xu Zhenghua and this girl exchanged eyes that were unusual, and then inexplicably felt that she was a little familiar-when the contract was signed last year, Xu Zhenghua’s personal accountant should be her?

A beautiful girl is always easier to remember.

Then he suddenly thought of some rumors, and he suddenly came back to his senses–is this beautiful girl who just came in with a group of people, is it one of the pair of sisters?

In fact, when we entered the door, everyone announced their names to each other, but that was the matter of the people below. Liu Junxian only took Xu Zhenghua to sit down for a wine tasting, and did not participate at all.

“Hello Mr. Liu, I’m Xie Shuyi, Zhenghua’s private accountant.”

Xie Shuyi’s response was calm and self-sufficient.

But no one thought that when Liu Junxian heard the words, he stood up and shook hands with Xie Shuyi seriously, “Hello! Nice to meet you, Ms. Xie!”

He even had a big smile – that’s funny.

I heard that Xu Zhenghua even let “Da Xie” manage the money for him with confidence. It is said that even Xu Zhenghua’s expenses should be reimbursed by her, and Xu Zhenghua’s series of investments since he became rich are also hers. He runs around and manages – this can be regarded as Xu Zhenghua’s big housekeeper, and his status is even higher than Guan Yulan.

So Liu Junxian is willing to give her a considerable degree of respect.

But when he shook hands and sat back, he laughed heartily.

This is probably the so-called long-term poverty.

There is really no way, and there is really no one available.

Because I have been poor for too long, I suddenly have a lot of money in my hand. I absolutely dare not find someone I didn’t know before to manage it for me. I always feel that everyone is staring at their own money. If you want to steal your own money – then you have to choose from people who are close and feel trustworthy.

It is a reason that after becoming popular with celebrities, he likes to find his relatives as agents.

Xu Zhenghua This is not bad, he didn’t mess around with the agent, he just used his own people for his own money – it is a more rational choice among all the stars.

However… let’s not mention the past, just this one sum is as high as nearly 400 million!

What is this concept!

Enough for him to buy 30 or 40 luxury villas in places like the Imperial Capital and the Magic Capital, enough for him to directly acquire a listed company with full capital!

Hundreds and tens of millions of dollars, it doesn’t matter who takes care of it, it’s nothing more than a waste of money or a little less money.

But with such a large sum of money, how can an ordinary girl manage it?

It seems that she has the qualifications of a certified public accountant, and her demeanor is also very stable, which is good, but… the money is too much.

Liu Junxian can even be sure that it is impossible for Xu Zhenghua and Xie Shuyi to manage.

It is estimated that the best thing to do is to buy a house, buy stocks, and invest money blindly.

On the contrary, you can consider buying some of the stocks recommended by Xu Zhenghua in advance. When he comes in with a cheque to scan the goods, he can make a little profit.

what!

I suddenly felt much more relieved.

This shortcoming of long-term poverty and becoming rich cannot be made up overnight.

There is a high probability that the money he settled today will lose a lot of money in the future. This is not a good thing for him, but it is not a bad thing for the record company.

“Come on, our King Xu!”

Seeing that everything is ready, Liu Junxian patted Xu Zhenghua on the shoulder and smiled brightly, “There are still more documents that need your signature, sign and sign! Sign and pay!”

Xu Zhenghua laughed, “Okay, I like Mr. Liu’s cheerfulness!”

He got up and walked over, and began to swipe the signatures on the confirmation documents prepared by Xie Shuyi, each channel, each overseas publisher, each record… a collection of documents, each one, They all represented a large amount of money, and he signed quickly, and he signed for five or six minutes.

“Okay, done!”

He looked back at Liu Junxian and smiled, “I, Xu Zhenghua, make money!”

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Liu Junxian looked up to the sky and laughed.

…………

Xie Shuyi kept her expression calm until she got into the car.

But when she arrived at the hotel room, she swiped the card and pushed the door open. She saw that only Xu Zhenghua was standing in front of the huge French window of the presidential suite, and her face showed joy. Facing Xu Zhenghua’s smiling face, he said, “Although you have reminded yourself repeatedly before you came here, and you have given me several vaccinations, but…really, seeing such a large number, it’s really…”

She shook her head and sighed, “Dizzy! I almost couldn’t control the dizziness!”

Xu Zhenghua laughed.

understand.

Whether it is the original owner or the Xie family in the past, they are indeed ordinary people at the bottom. Relying on the wealth of the Ming Dynasty, it is no problem to live a small life. If you want to buy a house, you can afford a house, and you need to buy a car. Start the car, but the money, at best, is at the level of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or at most hundreds of thousands.

Everyone grows up, and their cognition is at that level.

Xie Shuyi is better, as an accountant, the amount of accounts paid every day is probably not small.

But that was just looking through the ledger, and couldn’t even smell it.

This time is different.

Over 370 million in one settlement!

Ordinary people, in this lifetime, will never even imagine a number.

And this time, the money has been reviewed by Xie Shuyi, and it will be in real money soon! It’s all your own!

Uh…there will be a part of Yuan Wei in it.

But only a small, small, very small part.

“Our Love” only settled more than 8.14 million this time, of which the part of Qixing’s own channels, Zhenghua Music, according to the proportion of 55%, settled back 7.31 million, which will be paid according to the 5% stipulated in Yuan Wei Records’ contract. She settled the royalties, which was less than 700,000.

For the overseas channel, she will settle 10% of the net profit based on the actual income of the record company after deducting relevant taxes and management fees. This is an industry practice. Let alone newcomers, the overseas distribution channels of famous singers are divided into , is also the way to take it.

When the contract was signed, the terms of Zhenghua Music were of course given like that.

That money, if you catch up with a black-hearted record company, the word “net” in net profit will basically disappear for you.

But Zhenghua Music obviously can’t do that, but 830,000… 10% after various deductions, can settle Yuan Wei’s 50,000 yuan, which is absolutely right and absolutely conscientious.

You see, the sum that needs to be distributed to her is less than a million.

So it is still more than 370 million!

“You really… make so much money?”

Being hugged by him and standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows together, Xie Shuyi couldn’t help twisting her body slightly, tilting her head to look at him, with an indescribable infatuation, excitement and radiance on her face, “One album, so much money. too much?”

Xu Zhenghua laughed, reached out and patted her ass, “Okay, don’t get excited! Next, it’s time to figure out how to spend this money efficiently and purposefully!”
