The entertainment industry was a large circle that accommodated countless people of all kinds. However, the people in this circle were often inextricably linked to each other. Completely independent individuals did not exist at all.
Some people praised, some people criticized, some people praised, and some people scolded … It was bizarre and complicated.
The only belief was profit!
Lu Chen launched a leukemia charity fund on Waves blog. Chen Fei 'er's support for him went without saying.
Tan Hong, Liao Jia, Sister Li, and others were friends. It was normal for friends in the circle to support each other. However, those who knew or didn't know each other took the initiative to join, and most of them had ulterior motives.
But no matter what their motives were, as the saying goes, "Everyone adds firewood", the momentum on the Internet suddenly soared.
Lu Chen really didn't expect to play so big!
He quickly posted a new blog post on his blog, expressing his gratitude to all the supporters, saying that he would complete the registration of the foundation as soon as possible.
According to domestic laws and regulations, individuals and private individuals could not carry out charity fundraising activities, and the approval and registration of a charity foundation was very strict. It required very high qualifications to be approved.
However, since Lu Chen had made a decision, his will would not waver.
In addition to his own efforts, the status, fame, and money he had today mainly came from the memories in the dream world.
Lu Chen had never thought of squandering this rich wealth of memories to spend his life. He was grateful for the gift and was willing to benefit many people in need of help.
Establishing a charity foundation was Lu Chen's first step.
How far a person could go depended on how broad his mind was!
Chen Fei 'er asked, "Who are you going to let manage this foundation? The manager is very important. "
There were many charity foundations in China, and there had always been the problem of good and bad. Some foundations had a bad reputation because of the chaotic management and became a tool to accumulate money.
For a star artist like Lu Chen, he certainly did not have the time and energy to manage a charity foundation, but the reputation and credibility of the foundation were closely related to his reputation.
If there were management problems or other scandals, it would have a great impact on Lu Chen.
Therefore, the manager of the foundation was very important!
Lu Chen scratched his head. "Sister."
The people he trusted the most were, of course, his family members. He could rest assured if Lu Xi was in charge.
Chen Fei 'er smiled and said, "Sister Lu Xi doesn't have three heads and six arms. Do you think she can handle so many things?"
"Uh …"
Lu Chen seemed to have seen himself being sprayed with dog blood by his sister.
As he became more and more famous, Lu Xi, as the manager and agent of Lu Chen Studio, became busier and busier. In the past, he said that he would let her realize her dream of getting a master's degree in the capital, but now she didn't even have time to review her lessons.
Study for further studies? Hehe.
If the heavy burden of the charity foundation was placed on them …
Lu Chen wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. "Do you have any good suggestions or candidates to recommend?"
Chen Fei 'er said, "If you want me to recommend someone, I will recommend Sister Li. There is no other suitable candidate."
"Sister Li?"
Lu Chen's eyes suddenly lit up. "Will she be willing?"
Sister Li was well-known in the circle, and she was willing to do charity. She had just said on her blog that she would donate 500,000 yuan to Lu Chen's charity project. The most important thing was that she was smart and capable, and she had a wide range of contacts both inside and outside the circle.
This was very important. In contrast, Lu Xi was really far behind.
If Sister Li came to the foundation, then Lu Chen really had nothing to worry about.
The problem was that Sister Li had her own career. Her agency had always been doing well, and she was usually very busy.
Chen Fei 'er smiled and said, "Let me ask first. It shouldn't be a big problem."
Lu Chen couldn't help but hold her in his arms and praised, "If it weren't for you, what would I do?"
The mushy words of love, which could give others goosebumps, made Chen Fei 'er's pretty face faintly bashful. She coquettishly rolled her eyes at Lu Chen and said, "Glib tongue! I have to go back. Xuan sent me a message. "
Lu Chen looked at the time and said, "Oh, let's go for lunch together."
It was already one o 'clock.
Chen Fei 'er said, "It's too late. I have a job in the afternoon. You go eat by yourself."
She kissed Lu Chen comfortingly and said, "Xuan is downstairs. You don't need to send me."
Wonderful time always passed too fast. Lu Chen had no choice but to send Chen Fei 'er out of the door with a mask and sunglasses.
He thought that he should buy a new house. It was really inconvenient to continue to live here.
After Chen Fei 'er left, Lu Chen didn't stay in the apartment for long. He casually ate something and rushed to the studio.
However, as soon as he arrived at the studio, he was called to the room by his sister and scolded!
The phones of Lu Xi and the studio were blown up. There were some important things that needed Lu Chen's approval. However, his phone was turned off. If Lu Chen hadn't contacted him in the morning, he would have thought that he had disappeared!
"And you didn't discuss such a big thing as setting up a charity foundation with me first …"
Lu Xi said angrily, "I don't have the energy or ability to help you!"
Lu Chenexplained: "I have discussed this matter with Fei`er, and she recommended Sister Li to me."
Lu Xi was stunned and suddenly said, "You were with Fei 'er this morning, weren't you? No wonder you turned off your phone. "
She said sourly, "Now you really have a wife and forget your sister!"
Lu Chen smiled bitterly. Life was already so difficult. Why did he have to expose some things?
Lu Xi didn't want to talk to him anymore. "The latest work and business are on my computer. You deal with it yourself. I'm going to the hospital now."
Lu Chen was stunned. "What are you going to the hospital for?"
Lu Xi said, "I'm going to visit Manager Wang. You brought his studio here. You have to visit him, right? You don't have to go. I'll go as a representative to express my condolences. "
Lu Chen couldn't help blushing.
All the members of Nirvana Studios were now recruited by him. He had known that Wang Changsheng was hospitalized for a long time, but he had been too busy these two days and didn't think of visiting the hospital.
His sister was so careful. Although it was a small matter, she could take care of the feelings of Wang Jing and Wang Hui.
Seeing that Lu Xi was about to leave, Lu Chen hurriedly said, "Sister …"
Lu Xi stopped at the door of the room and turned her head. "What's wrong?"
Lu Chen said sincerely, "Thank you."
Lu Xi snorted, but her eyes became much softer.
After his sister left, Lu Chen sat in her seat and opened the work documents on the computer.
First was the publication of the novel version of "Autumn in My Heart". Because the ratings of this TV series had set a record in recent years, coupled with the serialized updates on Lu Chen's blog some time ago, the novel version was very popular.
There were more than a dozen publishing houses contacted by phone or directly sent people to seek cooperation, among which the most powerful were Shanhai Publishing House, Group News Publishing House, and Beijing Publishing House.
So far, the private Shanhai Publishing House offered the most attractive conditions, 15% royalties and a minimum guarantee of 500,000!
The royalties of domestic writers were usually between 8% and 12%, and newcomers were even as low as 5%. A novel priced at 20 yuan with 150,000 words could only earn 1 yuan, and the first printing would only be 10,000 to 20,000 copies.
In the field of literary publishing, Lu Chen was definitely a newcomer. He had never published any works before.
But the influence of "Autumn in My Heart" made it impossible for any publishing house to treat him as a newcomer. But even so, the price offered by Shanhai Publishing House was far beyond the normal range.
15% royalties was the treatment of a top famous writer, and the guaranteed print run of 500,000 was even more expensive. As long as Lu Chen signed the contract, the 1.5 million remuneration would immediately be transferred to the studio's account!
If more copies were sold later, the royalty share would be further increased.
And such conditions were something that the state-owned Group News Publishing House and Beijing Publishing House could not offer.
Therefore, Lu Xi's suggestion was to sign with Shanhai Publishing House.
Lu Chen had no objection to this. He would sell to whoever paid more. There was nothing to hesitate about.
In addition, the copyright of the comic book "Autumn in My Heart" also had some progress. The final offer given by the Color Impression Comics Publishing House was 1.2 million.
Lu Chen also gave his approval.
Then there was a clothing company that hoped to obtain the brand license for "Autumn in My Heart", and two film and television companies wanted to cooperate with the studio to adapt the movie …
Lu Chen glanced down. There were more than ten pieces of content related to the IP copyright of "Autumn in My Heart". If all of them were licensed out, it could at least bring an additional profit of nearly 10 million to the studio!
This made Lu Chen sigh at the power of IP. The value of a popular IP was really immeasurable.
And the entire copyright of "Autumn in My Heart" had always been firmly in the hands of Lu Chen. Chen Fei 'er and Qiande Pictures only got a share of the profits from the TV series.
Lu Chen had a feeling that his hands were cramping from counting money. But then he thought about how Chen Fei 'er's house cost 30 million, and he felt that he was not much different from the poor — it was not even enough to buy a house!
Ta! Ta!
As he was thinking about the money problem, someone knocked on the door.
Lu Chen coughed and said, "Please come in."
It was Wang Hui who came to find Lu Chen. He asked a little awkwardly, "Brother Lu Chen, I want to ask, when are we going to build the recording studio?"
Lu Chen was surprised. "Didn't I ask you to work out the budget first? You can choose the 5 million. "
Wang Hui asked with a bitter face, "But where are we going to build the recording studio? This place is too small. "
Lu Chen thought about it and realized that it was really a problem.
Originally, when he rented the studio, he had never considered building a recording studio. Now that Nirvana Studios had merged, the scale was going to expand Big, and the current place was really too small.
If he wanted to make the studio bigger and stronger, it was imperative to move!
The area of the new place had to be at least three or four times larger, which would require a high investment.
Lu Chen was already seriously considering selling himself to Chen Fei 'er.
