"Uh, maybe I didn't explain the signing rules clearly to you. Our contract is quite user-friendly.
Even if it's your live streaming team appearing on cara, it's still fine! Just add a clause in the contract details!"
Liu Xingyun noticed that Zhang Yang declined without even asking about the signing bonus or contract details, and thought that wasn't a good sign.
"Well, I can't give you an answer right now! How about I hold a eting to study it, co up with a unified opinion, and then get back to you?
There's no mandatory signing regulation on our platform, right?"
Zhang Yang, noticing the other party's continued persuasion, skillfully employed delaying tactics!
"Indeed, there's no mandatory rule, but the treatnt of signed strears and independent strears is worlds apart!
The commission on gifts and the salary standards are vastly different!
If you need to hold a team eting to discuss the signing, do you want to send a copy of the contract for you to review the terms?"
"Alright, I'll send my email to you via text later! Let's leave it here for today; I have so other things to handle!"
"OK! Waiting for your good news!"
...
After hanging up the phone, the smile on Liu Xingyun's face faded, and his brow furrowed slightly.
As a company executive, Liu Xingyun often interacts with all kinds of professional elites. Whether sothing succeeds usually requires just one or two contacts to form a judgnt.
After this exploratory call with Zhang Yang, Liu Xingyun felt uncertain.
The other party has industry qualifications and a professional team; their status is way above that of regular online influencers. Their first response after understanding the intention was not to delve deeper but to politely decline, which was not a good sign.
However, since the conversation hadn't reached a dead end, there was still room for negotiation, and Liu Xingyun decided to give it all he had.
After all, one of the standards for the Operations Manager's position is the growth of platform data.
Zhang Yang has nearly a million followers. If he could leverage Zhang Yang to expand new users, it would greatly benefit Liu Xingyun and the entire platform.
Thinking of this, Liu Xingyun took out his phone again to gather so information from friends. After obtaining the required information, he left his office and headed straight to the General Manager Wang Henan's office.
Wang Henan was a middle-aged man in his mid-forties, dressed smartly for the workplace, wearing gold-rimd glasses, giving off a gentle and elegant deanor.
"President Wang, there's sothing I'd like to report to you!"
"Old Liu, what's the matter that warrants you coming over in person? Sit and tell ..."
"Here's the situation..."
Liu Xingyun relayed the general situation about the 'Black Pit Jianghu' account and the recent exploratory conversation with Zhang Yang to his superior in one go.
The core demand was to show more sincerity in the signing contract, thus facilitating the signing completion, bringing in enough new users to the platform, and by the way, securing a top fishing strear in the outdoor category.
"Did you verify the details discussed over the phone privately?"
After listening to Liu Xingyun's thoughts, Wang Henan beca interested.
The platform had just launched, and before going online, Wang Henan's team had privately poached many small and dium strears from previous PC-based live streaming platforms.
These strears switched platforms in exchange for considerable incentives, like salary and signing bonuses, though the benefits were only sincere without significant influence. Most signing bonuses were only in the five- to six-figure range annually.
After listening to Liu Xingyun's introduction, Wang Henan instantly felt that the 'Black Pit Jianghu' IP and the streaming team were far more valuable than those minor strears and deserved higher treatnt and signing bonuses to secure them.
"The main parts have been verified by soone, and they're true! I also checked the affiliated subject of the 'Black Pit Jianghu' public account online!
It's Mingyang World Fishing Tackle Co., Ltd. This company deals in fishing goods, and just last year, within less than half a year, their online sales on Taobao exceeded 2 million!
This is only their non-core business; their primary offline business must be much larger!"
"This ans they probably don't lack money?" After hearing this, Wang Henan squinted his eyes.
"Possibly! Just offering money will hardly move them. When I proposed signing with the platform along with a signing bonus and salary, they didn't even ask for the amount!"
"If money isn't an issue, then provide them with exposure, resources, platform benefits. Whatever our company has, if they need anything, let's give it to them! You co up with a preliminary plan, maintain contact, and report any progress to !"
"Understood!"
...
While Liu Xingyun was discussing signing Zhang Yang's streaming account with the boss, Zhang Yang, after hanging up the call, didn't consider the issue of signing.
That question was already answered in the previous call; Yingke Live was at most a transitional platform. Once Kuaishou and Douyin rose, Zhang Yang would definitely be the first to leave.
According to the normal tiline, Kuaishou would start issuing internal live streaming permissions in the spring of 2016, aning Zhang Yang's ti on Yingke Live, at most, wouldn't exceed ten months.
Let it drag on; it's best to part on good terms! Zhang Yang shook his head, took a sip of iced tea from his cup.
...
In the following days, Zhang Yang assisted Wang Yan and the others in organizing a second 'Black Pit Fishing' live stream.
This ti, in addition to Zhang Yang's comntary, Wang Yan was also called to the comntary booth, while Han Qiang appeared on cara for the fishing broadcast.
