NOVEL FROG Chapter 188
"Being a boss?!"
Chen Xi had never thought about it...
He was content with what he had at first, but after recording"Heaven and Earth Dragon Scales", he had some ideas.
Material life?
The best food from land and sea, fine clothes and delicious food, and these songs should be enough to live a life of idleness, but these are not what he pursues.
Seeing that Chen Xi was silent, Director He did not interrupt, but waited quietly until Chen Xi said aggrievedly,"I have never thought about it, and I don't know how to be a boss."…"
"Hahaha..." Director He laughed. He observed that Chen Xi was sincere... which meant that he had no plans to become independent for the time being!
Director He continued after he finished laughing,"Chen Xi, Starlight Entertainment is valued at 3 billion. Since Ning Jing left, many people have become skeptical about this number!"
"In fact, the valuation is inflated. I can assure you that Star Entertainment is conservatively 2.4 billion!"
A few words popped up in Chen Xi's mind.
Employee equity incentive plan...!
After Director He finished talking about the numbers, he continued,"After I talked with Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang also communicated with Su Chengyi. Su Chengyi and I will each take out 2% of the shares, and you will invest in the purchase!"
Although Chen Xi had no idea, he also started to calculate according to the numbers Director He said...
This is almost 100 million.…
"Director He, I don’t have any money, and I don’t really want to buy it…"
Seeing Chen Xi’s expression, Director He suddenly thought of the case where the company was poorly managed and deceived employees into investing in shares."Hahaha…, I’m not fooling you, Starlight Entertainment is in good operating condition!"
Chen Xi smiled bitterly.…
"You don't need to invest in the purchase. I've calculated the share of your current songs."Director He took out an A4 paper form from under the coffee table and handed it to Chen Xi...
Music Association app playback and download data in June…！
《The download share of"Chi Ling","Prose Poems Written by My Father" and"Bubble"... 3.96 million!
《The share of downloads of"The Lone Warrior" and"Chasing Dreams"... 245,000!
Director He saw that Chen Xi had almost finished reading, and continued,"The share of the two songs purchased by Qianshan Culture will also be transferred to the company's account before you get them. The subsequent share of these songs will be exchanged for 4% of the shares!"
Chen Xi looked at the table and continued to calculate,"These are still far from enough, and I still owe 1.98 million for the house payment to Mr. Zhang."
"You don't have to worry about these. Mr. Zhang will make up for the difference. It's his fault for not wanting to sell his shares." Director He smiled,"But Mr. Zhang won't make up the full amount... We also have to look at future developments."
After saying these words, Director He walked back to his desk and took out a thick stack of information.
Walking to the coffee table, seeing that Chen Xi was still hesitating, Director He slowly said,"Chen Xi, believe me, even if you don't value money, this will be good for you. The share of the song downloads made by the composer is actually only the first wave of hot money.…"
"The download volume will drop precipitously in the second month. After three months, the share of the download volume will not even be enough to buy a pack of cigarettes. However, the entertainment company can continue to make profits from commercial performances, video licensing, cover licensing, and editing licensing.…"
"After three to five years, when the copyright returns to the composer, the song has basically been squeezed dry!"
Director He finished speaking and looked at Chen Xi. This is not an industry secret. In fact, everyone can figure it out!
Chen Xi thought about it and answered seriously,"Director He, actually I don't have any concept of money now. I don't have much idea about what to do with the money. Moreover, I feel uneasy about taking advantage of others like this."
"Chen Xi, let me make the decision for you! The copyright of the song has no impact on you. When the buyout period is up, the copyright still belongs to you. Don't worry about that..." Director He looked at Chen Xi kindly and continued.…
"With shares, you become a shareholder of the company. Shares cannot be transferred within three years. You only have dividends and advisory rights, but no decision-making power. If you sell shares after three years, you will have priority over other shareholders of the company! Do you need me to explain it to you?"
Chen Xi thought and said,"Director He, I understand all this."
Director He nodded,"Well, actually I have a selfish motive for this matter...!
Chen Xi raised his eyes and looked at Director He.
Director He smiled slightly,"Ever since you wrote"The Lone Brave" and"Chasing Dreams", I found that you are extraordinary..., and now it has come true!"
I'm afraid that your achievements will get higher and higher, and I'm worried that you will run away, hahaha..."
Chen Xi smiled bitterly,"I haven't decided where to run yet..."
He Nanting laughed again,"I have to prepare in advance. The 4% equity incentive is just a preliminary plan. In the future, I hope to witness Star Entertainment with you to the peak!"
Even if he was given 4% of the shares, Director He was still uneasy. He always had a hunch that Chen Xi would not be limited to Star Entertainment in the future!
"Mr. He, thank you!"Chen Xi agreed
"Hahaha..." Director He laughed so hard that his cheeks hurt. He handed a thick stack of documents he had just taken from the desk to Chen Xi, muttering…
"This is the company's original data and profit situation, this is the company's income and expenditure in the past five years, this is the development space and the future development plan……"
Chen Xi glanced at the cover without reading the content, and handed it back to Director He,"Director He, I won't read it anymore, I trust you!"
Even though Chen Xi was not so conceited, he knew that the future development plan must be inaccurate!
The words"I trust you" almost made Director He burst into tears. Director He looked at Chen Xi with emotion,"Chen Xi, I promise you one thing, the income from the 4% stake in Starlight Entertainment will far exceed the income from composing and writing lyrics for an independent studio!"
After saying this, Director He went back to his desk...
Chen Xi was also thinking.
A music and lyrics studio is a business, and an entertainment company is an operation. Unless you have the ability to open an entertainment company...
How easy is that!
Director He brought another stack of papers over…
"Chen Xi, you have to read these words one by one, you must take them seriously! If you don’t understand, I will explain them to you…" After saying that, he handed over the two share transfer agreements, shareholder binding clauses, share transfer and dividend mechanism, new gold medal composer contract… to Chen Xi.
Then, Director He stared at Chen Xi, a small shareholder of the company, and read the agreement.…
……
At KG Company, on a dark red desk, there was a pile of A4 papers. In an air-conditioned room, three translators were sweating profusely.
It felt like they were not translating lyrics, but translating the 5,000-year history of China. This was beyond their capabilities.
《Dragon Scales of Heaven and Earth is difficult to translate! Although the lyrics of When Will the Moon Rise are few, it is even more difficult to translate!
More than three hours, three translations, more than three versions!
Park Xianye waited patiently until the translation was finished, and then continued to listen to the song while comparing the translation with Hanwen!
On the white paper in front of him, he wrote four letters and two Chinese characters!
Gala, Chen Xi!
