Staying out of the spotlight can indeed avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

However, there are also many benefits to becoming famous.

First of all, the income from frequent appearances is substantial; a single appearance fee can be more than an average person could earn in a lifetime.

Secondly, influence.

And that's what he truly cares about.

Given his business progress, he could disregard the economic gains, but he felt it was still necessary to start laying the groundwork for personal influence now.

Because at some point in the future, an individual's influence or fame can save a company on the verge of bankruptcy or boost the tourism industry in a region.

Such examples will become increasingly common in the future.

With more and more companies under his name, relying solely on his own quiet efforts is ultimately not the best strategy.

If you build a good reputation now, your enemies will at least have to think twice before attacking you in the future. And in business, it will naturally bring greater benefits.

It's fair to say that the benefits of becoming famous are indeed enormous.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Just as Wang Qian was deep in thought, Zhong Yiyi's surprised voice reached his ears.

Wang Qian suddenly came to his senses and asked thoughtfully, "Can you work part-time?"

"part time?"

Zhong Yiyi was taken aback, somewhat confused. "What do you mean?"

"Didn't you want me to become famous?"

Wang Qian said with a half-smile, "Since you want to become famous, why not go all the way? While you're helping Yanping, help me plan things out so I can become a relatively influential celebrity."

"You want me to be your manager too?" Zhong Yiyi finally understood.

"right!"

Wang Qian nodded. "You can be both my agent and Yanping's agent. That doesn't conflict with that, does it?"

"This...of course, there's no conflict."

Zhong Yiyi hesitated for a moment, still somewhat troubled, "But I'm already busy enough with Yanping's affairs. If I also take care of you, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it."

"You should mainly focus on Yanping. When you have time, you can help me with some planning. Becoming famous is not my first priority."

"In that case, that would be acceptable!"

"Tell me, how much salary do you want?" Wang Qian asked.

"Oh, are you serious?"

Zhong Yiyi laughed, "You're talking to me about salary?"

She agreed to work part-time as Wang Qian's agent, mainly to repay Wang Qian's kindness in recognizing her talent, as it would not harm Wu Yanping.

As for the money, she really hadn't considered it and didn't intend to ask for it.

"Friendship is friendship, but you still have to pay my salary!"

Wang Qian said seriously, "Don't argue with me. If it's just one thing, it's unreasonable for you not to ask for payment. But this is work after all. If you don't get paid for a long time, anyone would develop resentment."

"All right!"

Since Wang Qian had said that, Zhong Yiyi thought for a moment, then held out one hand, "Give me this amount every year!"

"Fifty thousand?" Wang Qian was taken aback.

Celebrity agents are usually paid on an annual salary basis.

Successful celebrity agents often earn tens of millions of yuan a year, so Zhong Yiyi's annual salary of 50,000 yuan is not excessive.

As far as he knew, since making Wu Yanping famous, Zhong Yiyi's annual salary had increased from 10,000 to 100,000.

It's reasonable to ask for a 50,000 annual salary to work as his part-time agent.

but,

"No, I meant five thousand!"

Zhong Yiyi corrected, "If I really help you become famous in the future, you can give me a raise."

"That...is also acceptable!"

Wang Qian nodded gratefully.

Zhong Yiyi only asked for an annual salary of 5,000, which was just a symbolic request. Otherwise, given Zhong Yiyi's current reputation in the industry, she could easily charge anywhere from 5,000 to tens of thousands for a simple planning proposal for a newcomer.

It can be said that Zhong Yiyi has now achieved financial freedom and doesn't care about the annual salary of five thousand yuan at all.

...

10 PM.

The concert has finally come to a successful end.

After bidding farewell to countless enthusiastic fans, Wu Yanping, Wang Qian, and others returned to the Galaxy Hotel under the escort of security guards.

After performing intermittently for three hours, Wu Yanping was exhausted when she returned to the hotel. After chatting casually with Wang Qian and others, she went back to her room to sleep.

As for Zhong Yiyi, she contacted a record company in Yong'an City overnight, preparing to strike while the iron was hot and help Wu Yanping release a new album the next day.

With the help of the new song "Dreaming Back to Youth", the concert achieved unprecedented success, and the fans' feedback was extremely enthusiastic.

If a new album is released at this time, not only will sales be high, but Wu Yanping's new song will also quickly become popular in Yong'an City and spread to other regions.

As it turned out, her judgment was indeed very accurate.

The next day, before the new album was officially released, fans who had attended Wu Yanping's concert had already taken the initiative to promote her and spread the word about her new song everywhere.

As a result, the first batch of new records sold out very quickly after they were released.

Especially the records with Wu Yanping's autograph were sold at ridiculously high prices, starting at thirty yuan a copy and later selling for one hundred and twenty yuan a copy, and they were still in short supply.

In just one morning, as many as 5,000 records were sold.

And this is just the beginning.

As the new song spread, fans who heard it went to buy Wu Yanping's new album, and demand skyrocketed.

Even the record company boss was shocked by this explosive increase in sales.

For other singers, the first wave of album sales is definitely the best.
