I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

Chapter 043 Sister Bai is here!

The music critics' recommendations were something Ye Xian hadn't expected. He only found out the next morning when he saw the message from Xin Ge that his song was being promoted on both Chaobo and Kuaiyin.

However, this is normal. After all, these three songs have hundreds of thousands of users. If a music critic who makes a living from music doesn't keep an eye on the music charts on Kuaishou every day, then that would really be a bit unreasonable.

Ye Xian did not comment on these music critics' accounts to attract traffic, but let things take their natural course.

The era of Kuaishou is somewhat different from the era of SuperBlog. In the era of SuperBlog, everyone interacted very frequently, which allowed them to drive traffic to each other.

In the era of Kuaishou, everyone is an isolated island. Decentralization is not a joke. I can pay you to help me promote it, and maybe it will have a little effect, but if I have that kind of effort, I might as well exert my own effort.

In this era of short videos and live streaming for everyone, people can no longer be easily fooled.

Your songs are good; plenty of people use them.

Your song is so bad that you can't even get out of the pool of 300 fans.

Your video is good; lots of people will try to imitate it.

If your opinion is bad, a few reports, dislikes, and no recommendations will wipe you out.

In another world, a female dance streamer worked hard for several hours every day and gained a million followers from scratch in just two or three months. However, she was reported for wearing shorts and a crop top while dancing, which made her so angry that she sat on a stool and cried.

What kind of concept is this? In this day and age, people can report you for dancing in shorts or a crop top, and the platform actually accepted the report and issued a warning to the live stream.

Many popular streamers you follow will find that the platform stops showing you their short videos for a while, and you'll gradually forget about them. But when you remember them again, you'll suddenly realize that they've been updating their short videos all along.

That's how domineering traffic restrictions are.

This is decentralization.

In this day and age, even influential figures can't necessarily control their own followers.

Therefore, Ye Xian didn't pay too much attention to these things; doing his best was the most important thing.

……

At this moment, Ye Xian was receiving an unexpected visitor—Bai Jie.

She is Ye Xian's number one female supporter.

These past few nights, Bai Jie has been sending gifts to Ye Xian in the live stream every day.

There are at least two carnivals every night.

This almost knocked Ye Xian unconscious.

What kind of rhythm is this?

My brother just arrived in this other world, and he's already going to be kept by a rich woman?

Are you now living a life of effortless success?

It wasn't until he saw Bai Jie that Ye Xian came to his senses.

This means an MCN (Multi-Channel Network) has come knocking on their door.

For the average Kuaishou blogger, once your account reaches 50,000 to 60,000 followers, if your account is unique, MCNs will start to make initial contact with you. At this time, the conditions they offer are usually very harsh. Some unscrupulous MCNs will directly offer you a 10/90 or 20/80 split. If you know a bit about the business, you can barely negotiate a 30/70 split.

Note that this revenue sharing occurs after the platform has settled accounts with the client, and then the revenue is split among the remaining accounts.

It's generally difficult for small investors to discuss a 30/70 split.

Ye Xian's fan count has just surpassed 7.

Bai Jie is not the first to contact her MCN agency.

After Ye Xian's first song went viral, various MCNs, entertainment agencies, studios, and intermediaries began sending him private messages.

Ye Xian hadn't signed a contract with Xingtu before, so no one had any other way to contact him. Recently, some people got smart and placed orders for Ye Xian's wine, which naturally led them to Ye Xian's address.

However, Bai Jie was the first MCN to actually take action and directly approach her.

"Sister Bai, thank you for taking care of me during this time."

Ye Xian invited Bai Jie to his small house, where they sat under the open sky.

Drink tea.

Autumn's mother accompanied her.

"Don't mention it. You're so outstanding, I admire you from the bottom of my heart. I'm an honest person, I've come here today to ask if you'd like to collaborate with me."

Bai Jie wore a pink suit; the fitted design showed off her stunning curves.

The only thing that bothered Bai Jie was that Qiu's mother was sitting next to her.

What does that mean?

A mama's boy?

Didn't you say that both parents are deceased?

"What are Sister Bai's conditions?"

Ye Xian understood that he would have to face MCNs sooner or later, so he asked the question directly.

"Under the brokerage agreement, all your online and offline revenue will be split 30/70. I will be responsible for your packaging, promotion, and business contracts across all channels, and I will plan all your schedules."

Bai Jie's powerful aura was overwhelming, and her strong confidence made even Qiu's mother take notice.

"Sister Bai's offer is very tempting!"

Ye Xian didn't expect the other party to offer 37% right away. This condition included all marketing and promotion expenses, but the agency contract also restricted him severely.

Omnichannel means that all actions are under the control of the other party.

Moreover, while this is the stated condition, the extent of the resource allocation at that time remains to be seen.

Another issue is that there are many traps in the contract. For example, the revenue share is sometimes subject to further deductions for marketing costs, service costs, and other miscellaneous expenses, leaving very little money.

Autumn's mother kicked Ye Xian under the table.

Ye Xian understood that Qiu's mother was reminding him not to agree rashly. Ye Xian smiled at Qiu's mother and gestured with his eyes for her to calm down.

"I'm here with sincerity! You can write and sing songs, so I can't negotiate with you using a regular contract. If you sign the contract, I can give you a complete promotion plan for three songs tomorrow, and you can even compete for this year's Best Newcomer Award."

Bai Jie lightly licked her red lips, looking at Ye Xian with an unwavering determination.

Bai Jie originally didn't want to contact Ye Xian so soon. She wanted to see how Ye Xian developed, since he only had 7 followers.

There are too many verified users with 7 followers on Kuaishou.

There are countless.

For ordinary small influencers, there's no need for the MCN owner to come and negotiate in person. At most, an assistant would come, and some don't even need to come.

However, who could have imagined that Ye Xian would release three hit songs within ten days?

All three of his songs are now on the hot song charts. Although he is still in the stage where his songs are popular but he himself is not, it's because he doesn't have a team to manage him yet. If he had a team to help him get on a few shows, appear on a few commercial shows, and promote him across all channels, he would definitely be the number one rising star this year.

If Bai Jie could remain calm and maintain the relationship with several carnivals when the first two songs were released, then after the third song came out, the assistant who had been following Ye Xian's account as Bai Jie had asked discovered signs of Ye Xian's rise through Hot Topic Treasure.

This made Bai Jie a little restless.

Now is the perfect time to talk.

Later on, the conditions might not be the same.

Bai Jie trusted her own judgment.

I have more faith in big data.

Ye Xian understood this principle very well.

"However, sister, my ambitions lie outside the entertainment industry."

This answer made Bai Jie's almond-shaped eyes widen even more.

What the hell?

You released three hit songs in ten days.

And then you tell me you don't want to be in the entertainment industry?

So what's the point of releasing these songs?
