I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 190 189. There is no limit to popularity? Five million people online?
Get in the car and go!

Han Qing continued the live broadcast as usual.

Two million people instantly flooded into the live broadcast room, which showed that a large number of viewers were already waiting for Han Qing to start broadcasting. As soon as the broadcast started, they all rushed into the room, wanting to be the first to participate in today's lucky draw.

The barrage of comments was instantly dense.

"I'm watching Lao Jiang's live broadcast today. When will the lucky draw start?"

"I want to win the prize! If I win the prize, I will sell this painting of "Song of the Drunken Master" and give half of the proceeds to Lao Jiang as a reward. I will just keep the other half."

"If I really win the prize, I will return 80% to Lao Jiang. If I can sell it for 1 billion, I only need 200 million to achieve financial freedom, and the remaining 800 million will all be returned to Lao Jiang."

"Have you ever thought about collecting it? This painting of "Sending Wine" is very collectible and will become more and more valuable in the future."

"The value of money in the future is a matter for the future. We just want to enjoy life now."

"Tomorrow is Sichuan University's anniversary celebration. Is Lao Jiang going to perform at the celebration?"

"I heard from my friends at Sichuan University that Jiang promised to perform at least one show at the school anniversary celebration."

"Sichuan University has closed the on-site application channel for the anniversary celebration. You can't get in even if you want to."

"This may be the most watched anniversary celebration in the history of Sichuan University."

"I just want to draw the lottery now..."

…………

The number of people online in the live broadcast room continued to increase rapidly, reaching three million in a short while, and was still increasing rapidly, having already caught up with the highest peak number last night.

Although it is an outdoor live broadcast in broad daylight, there is no performance by Jiang Chen.

However, almost all viewers will stay in the live broadcast room, wanting to participate in the lottery as soon as possible.

There were also many viewers who had never been to Jiang Chen’s live broadcast room before. After hearing about the lottery and the value of Jiang Chen’s works, they all went into the live broadcast room.

The number of new users in the entire live broadcast room has reached over one million, bringing a large number of active new users to the Penguin platform.

Moreover, Jiang Chen's lottery draw was one of the hottest news events in the country, attracting hundreds of millions of people to discuss it on major platforms.

Therefore, there will be a steady stream of people coming to the Penguin platform to register an account, and then entering Jiang Chen’s live broadcast room to participate in the lottery.

Zhang Li was in the hotel at this time, talking on the phone with Mr. Yang.

Mr. Yang's voice was a little excited. "From last night to now, we have added more than 20 million new users, and most of them are active users. Now there are new users registering continuously, more than last night. During the time when Jiang Chen draws prizes in the afternoon, a large number of new users will continue to join our platform."

"We estimate that we can add at least 50 million new users a day, which is definitely a huge benefit to our platform."

"The influence and appeal of Jiang Chen's lucky draw event exceeded our imagination. Now I have new confidence to ask the group headquarters for money to renew Jiang Chen's contract."

After hearing these words, Zhang Li's depressed heart for some time began to glow with new expectations.

She didn't want the platform to lose Jiang Chen, or rather, she didn't want to lose Jiang Chen in her heart. She hoped that Jiang Chen could continue to live broadcast under her, so that she would have the illusion that she was in control of Jiang Chen. She enjoyed this illusion and didn't want to lose it.

Zhang Li said seriously, "I met Li Yumin yesterday, and he also came to Chengdu. Jiang Chen's contract with us is about to end, and DouYue Live will definitely offer a bigger contract to compete for Jiang Chen. Mr. Yang, you have to raise enough funds from the group headquarters as soon as possible."

"Jiang Chen's current headcount is about 30 million per day, which is about 1 billion per month, and 10 billion per year! It will be difficult for the group to come up with this money, right?"

Mr. Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think DouYue can come up with so much money to sign Jiang Chen? With a per capita fee of 10 billion per year, Jiang Chen's live broadcast income yesterday exceeded 100 million! In a few years, won't he be worth 100 billion?"

"Jiang Chen's popularity is at its peak now, so the prices are all inflated. When his popularity stabilizes over time, the prices will definitely fall. Otherwise, no platform will be able to sign him."

Zhang Li nodded after hearing this.

The annual per capita fee is over 10 billion yuan, which is roughly equivalent to the signing fee. This is something that no platform can afford.

It’s very simple. No platform is doing charity, they all want to make money.

No matter how popular Jiang Chen is, it is impossible for one person to bring tens of billions of revenue to the platform in a year!
Even though DouYue claims to be able to develop traffic to the extreme, it is impossible to use Jiang Chen's traffic to bring in tens of billions of profits.

Unless Jiang Chen gives up part of the reward share!

but……

The full amount of the reward goes to Jiang Chen, and this is a condition that cannot be changed.

The only possibility is to reduce Jiang Chen’s head fee!
And to reduce Jiang Chen's head fee...

We have to wait until the popularity of Jiang Chen’s live broadcast room starts to decline and its appeal to the audience decreases before we can bring it up.

Otherwise, if Jiang Chen's popularity is still rising, why should his salary be reduced?

but……

Jiang Chen has come all the way from the Magic City and returned to Chengdu. His popularity has been rising steadily, even dramatically!

Mr. Yang and Zhang Li had thought before that when Jiang Chen’s popularity starts to slow down, or even starts to decline and stabilize, they would appropriately propose to reduce the head fee when signing a new contract!
However, when they thought that Jiang Chen's online users had reached 300,000, Jiang Chen's online users quickly exceeded 500,000 again. When they thought that 500,000 online users were a sign of Jiang Chen, it quickly exceeded 1 million again...

Now it has even broken through to three million, and it seems that it has not reached the limit yet!
This made it difficult for them to implement their idea of ​​reducing Jiang Chen's head fee.

When this contract ends, the head fee in the new contract will definitely be increased appropriately!

otherwise……

This was the price when Jiang Chen had one million online users. Now that there are three million online users, is it still the same price?

They would be embarrassed too.

But if the per capita fee continues to increase, it means that they will have to pay Jiang Chen more money every day...

This is a vicious cycle!
Zhang Li said: "My suggestion is to give Jiang Chen shares. This way, giving up some shares can bind Jiang Chen, and it can also reduce the head fee and save a lot of expenses."

Mr. Yang smiled bitterly and said, "If the shares are too few, it will be hard to say to Jiang Chen. If the shares are too many, the group will definitely not agree. It will be easy to lose control of the platform! So, this is not easy to do. Let's take one step at a time. Tomorrow I will go to the group headquarters to ask Jiang Chen about the contract renewal."

"Now, this matter is beyond our ability to decide."

Zhang Li: "I'm waiting for your good news!"

Mr. Yang: “I’ll try my best!”

The two ended their conversation. Zhang Li looked at the live broadcast screen, where Jiang Chen was sitting in the car quietly looking at the streets of Chengdu outside the window, and the number of people online in the live broadcast room had exceeded 3.7 million, and was about to break through 4 million, reaching another level.

actually!

In Zhang Li's opinion, Jiang Chen's popularity can no longer be measured by money.

Among all the internet celebrities on the Internet, as well as many big-name stars in the entertainment industry, no one can have the terrifying popularity and appeal of Jiang Chen.

Even if those top stars start broadcasting after some publicity and hype, they can only attract millions of people online, and that is only a short-lived popularity. If they continue broadcasting for a few days, their popularity will definitely drop day by day, and it would be amazing if they eventually stabilize at a few hundred thousand or even tens of thousands.

Like Jiang Chen, without any publicity or hype, he relied on his own ability to increase the number of online users to three or four million.

This can be said to be a miracle.

Jiang Chen’s popularity and appeal can no longer be measured by money.

If Jiang Chen is willing to cooperate and develop, Zhang Li believes that a lot of capital will work with Jiang Chen to build a platform of his own to more comprehensively develop Jiang Chen's popularity and appeal. Its results will definitely not be weaker than Penguin Live, and it may become the second largest live broadcast platform after DouYue Live. If it raises funds and goes public, it is not impossible for its market value to reach tens of billions!

but……

Jiang Chen was not interested in these.

Perhaps, it is precisely because Jiang Chen is not interested in these things that he can write so many excellent songs and so many poems that will be passed down for thousands of years, and can practice calligraphy to the level of Wang Youjun, that he can attract so many people to watch, and that he can be so popular!

If Jiang Chen becomes capital and develops his own live broadcast platform, or transforms himself into a live broadcast host to sell goods, does his own OEM, etc., he will definitely become snobbish and less pure, and may not be able to write such excellent works. From then on, he will gradually be abandoned by most audiences.

So, there are gains and losses.

Zhang Li didn't know how to comment for a moment. She could only stare at Jiang Chen's quiet profile on the live screen in a daze, and then suddenly woke up after a while.

Because the number of people online on the live broadcast screen reached a terrifying four million!
This number is definitely a scary number.

It attracts even more terrifying audiences than many top-tier stars that have undergone long-term publicity and hype!
The so-called tens of millions of viewers promoted by big-name stars are not the number of people online at the same time, but the total number of viewers. As long as they click in and watch for a few seconds, it is counted as a person. Even if they leave the live broadcast room after a few seconds, they are still counted as a viewer and contribute to a number. The so-called tens of millions of viewers accumulated in this way actually have a maximum of only about one million people online, and two or three million is the limit.

Therefore, Jiang Chen’s live broadcast room is now setting records every second.

With Jiang Chen as his character, Zhang Li had a premonition that she and Penguin Live might be lost.

……

At the same time, Li Yumin was also watching Jiang Chen's live broadcast. Seeing that the number of people online in Jiang Chen's live broadcast room had exceeded the four million threshold, he also picked up the phone and called Mr. Zhang.

"Boss Zhang, have you seen the numbers in Jiang Chen's live broadcast room?"

Li Yumin asked.

Mr. Zhang answered seriously, "I am watching. Four million people are online. That's scary! Really scary. He can support a large platform by himself. I got inside information from Penguin Live. From last night till now, Jiang Chen has attracted tens of millions of new registered users. It is estimated that he will exceed 100 million in one day."

"For a half-dead platform like Penguin Live, this is definitely a life-saving medicine."

"Jiang Chen's lucky draw is really amazing!"

"If he could come to our DouYue live broadcast to hold a lucky draw event, the effect would definitely be more explosive. We have far more users than Penguin Live."

Li Yumin listened and said affirmatively: "That's right. If Jiang Chen gives away his work in a lottery on our platform, I will promote it in advance. I am confident that there will be tens of millions of people online!"

Mr. Zhang was shocked when he heard this: "It's tens of millions of people online at the same time, not tens of millions of views?"

Mr. Zhang also understands the word games played by some big stars in the entertainment industry.

Li Yumin said affirmatively: "Yes, that is, tens of millions of people are online at the same time, and the number of viewers is at least over 100 million! Mr. Zhang, you have to know that this is giving away Jiang Chen's authentic works worth 1 billion! Tens of millions of people online are nothing, as long as the publicity is appropriate and everyone in the country knows about it, I think anyone who has the conditions will participate, right?"

"With tens of millions of people online, it's not difficult at all."

"Penguin Live simply wasted this God-given opportunity."

Mr. Zhang listened and nodded in agreement: "Yes, they wasted this opportunity. We also missed this opportunity. It is impossible for Jiang Chen to send another work in a short time. What a pity!"

Li Yumin smiled and said, "Then we will keep Jiang Chen on our platform. I believe he will definitely give out works for prize draws in the future. As long as he does it for the first time, there will definitely be a second time."

"Everyone thinks that Jiang Chen cherishes his work and is unwilling to give it away. However, based on the information I have learned, this is not the case."

Mr. Zhang asked curiously, "Oh? What's the truth?"

Li Yumin: "The truth is, Jiang Chen doesn't care that much about his own works. So, he left a few works in Shanghai, a few in Beijing, and gave one work each to Han Qing, Wang Fei, Li Wenjun, and Zheng Zehao. He could get a work in exchange for calling the little girl "brother"."

"Also, according to the information I got, Jiang Chen did not take the works he wrote along the way home to treasure, but directly gave them to Han Qing for safekeeping. After he finished writing, he did not care about it anymore, and did not even look at it a second time. After he finished writing, Han Qing collected it, framed it, and then carried it with him."

"Now, Han Qing has at least ten original works of Jiang Chen, which are worth tens of billions according to the current market price! However, Jiang Chen never asked or asked for them."

Mr. Zhang heard this news for the first time and was shocked. He said, "Isn't Jiang Chen afraid that Han Qing embezzled all the money? Or, someone robbed Han Qing? So many original works will be lost?"

Li Yumin said with a firm tone: "So, I said, Jiang Chen doesn't care that much about his own works. He doesn't mind giving away his works. So, in the future, he will definitely have a second, third, or even fourth, fifth, or sixth lucky draw to give away works."

"As long as we keep Jiang Chen on our platform, we can definitely accumulate huge advantages by relying on Jiang Chen's future activities of giving away works."

Mr. Zhang listened and became interested: "If he doesn't care so much, can I buy a few of his works? Price is not an issue!"

Li Yumin listened and laughed, "This is the problem. Jiang Chen doesn't care about the works he writes, but he cares even less about money! So, it may be more difficult to buy it directly with money."

Mr. Zhang was speechless after hearing this. He felt that with his identity as a businessman, he could not understand Jiang Chen's thinking. Perhaps this was what an artist was like.

"Okay, then sign Jiang Chen at all costs and let him stay on our platform. I'll get to know him better. Maybe he'll be happy one day and give me a painting."

Mr. Zhang listened and said directly.

…………

What everyone didn't expect was.

Jiang Chen's popularity has been on the rise all day long.

When Jiang Chen finished recording the song and was having lunch at noon, the number of people online in the live broadcast room suddenly exceeded five million.

It can be said that it is so terrifying.
