Back to eighteen, if I don't stand up, I'll be wasted

Chapter 60 The price was secretly marked

After Yu Jing returned, she immediately conveyed Li Yi's words to Yu Mancang.

After reading it, Yu Mancang laughed.

"This guy, so he's been waiting here. He's really bold. He wants 250,000 a month for two internet celebrities. What do you think we should do?"

Li Yi had previously purchased 200 mobile phones and took away 600,000 yuan. Yu Mancang felt that he should make a profit from this business.

After the phone was delivered, he asked some people to check it and also compared it in the market. It was indeed cost-effective. Even with his face, he could only get it at this price.

No matter how much Li Yi earns from this, it is his responsibility.

But this time it was different.

The private traffic that Li Yi generated himself should have been directed directly to the channel. After all, he was a partner of the company, and it was his responsibility to increase the popularity of the channel.

As a result, they still charge money, and the fees are not low.

Yu Jing didn't dare to make the decision and said, "Dad, I just think Li Yi's price is a bit high."

"It's not just high, it's ridiculously high! A channel needs at least fifty people who can attract traffic to maintain its popularity and become a top-tier channel. Right now, with two people, it's costing 250,000 yuan per month. Once the channel is established, the monthly expenses will be 6 or 7 million yuan. He doesn't even want to make money with the company's cooperation funds. Instead, he wants to use the company's platform to promote his own products! He treats us like docile little sheep..."

Yu Mancang is very familiar with this approach. This is what the current major Internet companies do.

As long as you cooperate with a large Internet company, you only have to pay money, and in terms of operations, you have to obey the other party's instructions completely. The other party will not consider your costs or whether you can make money. Anyway, they just want to make money.

But why does Li Yi consider himself a major Internet company?
"Should I just reject him?"

"Don't worry, let's leave him alone for a few days and see. He just happened to send me the document, so I'll take a look. That guy wants to use us as a springboard, dream on!"

"Well, okay, I'll go back to my room first."

"Go ahead, don't take it too seriously, just mind your own business."

"it is good."

……

Yu Jing is gone.

Yu Mancang opened the entire file sent by Li Yi.

The document focuses on two internet celebrities, Xia Panpan and Liu Meng, their data, and personality analysis.

After reading the text, Yu Mancang was immediately attracted by the photos at the back.

As a big boss with some power, he has seen all kinds of women, beautiful and sexy.

But after seeing Xia Panpan's photo, his calm attitude towards women began to ripple.

He... seemed to have never met a woman with such beauty and sexiness.

For a moment, he frowned.

Something is wrong!
How could Li Yi find such a woman? He couldn't just pick one up from the street, could he?

Liu Meng is not bad either. Even a veteran like him feels some pity for him.

He never thought there was anything wrong with being lustful, because there were fewer and fewer things that could satisfy his desires. Either he would never be able to pursue them in his entire life, or he would become bored with them after getting them once.

Of course, these photos didn't make him crazy, he simply felt that Li Yi shouldn't have such superb resources. The photos were too tempting.

It was touching for him, let alone others.

There must be someone willing to spend money on these two people!
Including him!
He sent a message to Li Yi and asked, "Li Yi, I've read the contents of the document you sent. I know you have these two influencers. Logically, they should also be part of the company."

Li Yi quickly replied, "Mr. Yu, as a member of Channel 7186, my responsibility and obligation is to set the direction for Channel 7186 and then execute it. The 7186 yuan monthly partnership fee is for integrating and effectively utilizing Channel 's existing resources. If I have to spend money on private domain traffic myself, it will be difficult for me to do so."

To put it bluntly, a cooperation fee of 50,000 yuan is not enough to buy everything from Li Yi.

For example, when buying a mobile phone, Li Yi was just asking and had no right to make the decision at all.

Similarly this time, if Yu Mancang is unwilling to sign Xia Panpan and Liu Meng, Li Yi will find a way out on his own.

He would not be dissatisfied because of being rejected by Yu Mancang. Similarly, Yu Mancang should not think that he would give all his means to the company for free.

From the beginning to the end, he never used the resources of Channel 7186 to train Xia Panpan and Liu Meng.

"However much you spend, the company can reimburse you."

"Mr. Yu, Penguin Entertainment was selling for tens of millions back then. Will they still sell it for tens of millions now? Besides, I'm not saying I'll just leave the live streaming contract alone. I'm still a member of 7186. I'll tailor the live streaming content for the two influencers. That's my job."

What Li Yi said was a bit pretentious, but what Yu Mancang said was not pleasant either.

He only said that Li Yi's expenses would be reimbursed, and didn't mention anything else.

Even if it means giving Li Yi a raise because he has done more business for the company.

When it comes to money, neither side is willing to make concessions.

Yu Mancang asked, "Putting this matter aside, you've done almost no work on Channel 7186 in the past two weeks."

Yu Mancang was expressing Li Yi's attitude of taking money but not doing anything.

"Mr. Yu, you misunderstood. I've been in contact with other channel hosts and have a team of over 7186 people who could join us on 7186. However, they're asking million a year. Their traffic is extremely limited, but their capabilities are not a concern, and their management is quite sound. If you think they're suitable, you can sign a contract with them immediately. Meanwhile, I've also prepared the hardware and are ready to promote Channel extensively at any time..."

In particular, I've purchased several very tempting bugs at a high price, such as the one that unlocks challenge boxes in CrossFire. I believe this bug can attract thousands of regular users to the channel. However, these preparations are insignificant and have no direct impact on popularity. If you're in a hurry, I can start attracting traffic right now."

Yu Mancang: "..., a pure gaming channel is difficult to establish and doesn't have much value."

"But that's all I can do. I'm just trying to increase my popularity. I don't have any other authority. How about you arrange for someone to recruit live streamers, and I'll tailor the live content for them?"

……

Almost a few minutes later.

Yu Mancang said, "Li Yi, Xia Panpan, and Liu Meng, the company can sign the contract, but it has to be for one year, and the annual fee is 600,000!"

"Mr. Yu, the money I spent on these two people is more than 600,000..."

“How did you spend it?”

"First, costumes, props, and set design cost around 500 yuan per day. Photography is incredibly expensive, costing 300 yuan per photo. I have to take dozens of photos every day, and then I have to carefully select from them. Then there's photo editing, which is even more expensive, costing 500 yuan per photo. For top-level editing, I have to edit two photos per day. Also, I have to hire employees to help manage the account, delete comments, and repost. I've hired a data team to help us get trending on Weibo, with a minimum of 10,000 yuan for each post... Every month, I'm spending at least 300,000 yuan on the two of us."

The tens of millions of dollars contract that Li Yi and Xia Panpan signed was not signed in vain. The price of every photo and every piece of clothing was secretly marked.
