Chapter 219 Commentary Renewal
As expected, it still takes An-chan's help. Tonight, the official League of Legends live stream on Douyin was completely choppy and turned into a PowerPoint presentation.
An-chan is still pretty even when she's not talking; being a vase is definitely An-chan's comfort zone.
I'm curious if An'an will do commentary more often in the future.
I don't think so. I saw An-chan's fans were so upset that they all said they didn't want An-chan to do the commentary.
Tsk, what a pity.
The viewers watching the live stream were all discerning. Although many people disliked An Jin's behavior, what they disliked was her personality and style, not her abilities.
People naturally yearn for a better life.
Public figures are born with expectations from those who are watching them.
People hope that their favorite anchors are genuine, kind, and beautiful.
But no one is perfect. Everyone knows the benefits of healthy meals, but in daily life, most people still prefer a bite of street food.
The production team wasn't the only ones who recognized An Jin's high commercial value.
As mentioned before, the league has connections with the entertainment industry.
An Jin had just stepped down from the commentary platform, her makeup still on, when Lisa arrived with her entourage.
Lisa brought two groups of people.
One group consisted of the directing team for the league games, while the other group consisted of people from the entertainment industry.
An Jin knew the director team's purpose in coming; they simply wanted to discuss the upcoming commentary sessions.
But An Jin really didn't understand the intentions of the other group.
During Lisa's introduction, An Jin exchanged contact information with both groups of people, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then went their separate ways.
The game ended close to 11 p.m.
Whether it's adding commentary sessions or receiving invitations from the entertainment industry, nothing can be decided in a short time.
An Jin now owns a company and has a professional legal department, so her perspective on things has changed a lot.
If you put her back in the past when she signed the contract with the official platform, she guarantees she would never sign a contract with Douyin again.
However, saying these things now seems a bit like hindsight.
So much time has passed, the contract has been signed, and the two sides have cooperated. Going back to these useless things will only make you upset.
After removing her makeup, An Jin returned to her hotel and lay down on the bed. She and Yan Qing each read the messages sent to her by the two groups of people.
Yan Qing: "The league wants to sign you to a six-month commentary contract. The appearance fee is 50,000 per appearance, and they will arrange at least 30 commentary sessions for you. The league will cover your airfare, accommodation, and other expenses."
An Jin frowned upon hearing the conditions. She looked up from her notebook and turned to instruct Yan Qing.
"Six months is too long. Tell them I'll only sign a two-month contract. Thirty commentary sessions are too much. Tell them to keep it to fifteen or less."
The commentary time conflicted with An Jin's live streaming time. Although An Jin could choose to stream during the day when she needed to commentate, it still affected her live streaming career.
To be honest, if An Jin hadn't been holding onto the title of the top female streamer in League of Legends and was so attached to the game's influence, it would have been a huge turnaround.
She was somewhat dissatisfied with the paltry sums the alliance was offering.
Yan Qing typed a reply to the message, and a new contract was sent over shortly afterward.
"I've got this sorted out here. How's it going on your end?"
Yan Qing carefully saved the contract terms and turned to look at An Jin, who was still reading the messages.
An Jin pursed her lips, looking somewhat conflicted, and said, "I'm not done yet. If you're sleepy, you can go to sleep first."
Yan Qing didn't disturb An Jin, who was deep in thought. Instead, she picked up her phone, which she had just put down, opened the chat window, and started looking at An Jin's conversation with someone else.
A dozen minutes later, Yan Qing finished reading the message.
Do you want to go?
Yan Qing probed An Jin's thoughts.
An Jin hesitated, "I haven't decided yet. The offer is indeed good, but I'm worried that I'll be like other internet celebrities and get criticized as soon as I appear on variety shows."
As the saying goes, every profession has its own secrets. She was thriving in the live streaming world, but she became a newcomer when she entered the entertainment industry.
Yan Qing looked at the benefits and found that they were indeed good.
The recording time for the twelve episodes of the variety show is only one month. The price for each episode is five million, so you can earn more than half a small goal in a month.
An Jin is earning a lot of money from live streaming now.
But if you don't include advertising fees and window display revenue, she actually only earns about 20 million a month.
Not only is the compensation high, but the variety show content is also something An Jin is particularly good at.
To prove the credibility of their project, they sent An Jin the finalized list of big names well in advance.
Yan Qing is someone who rarely watches TV dramas and movies; his peak period of watching TV dramas was during elementary and middle school.
Because his parents were worried that he would become addicted to playing computer games and mobile phones during this period, they did not buy him a computer or mobile phone and were quite strict with him.
City kids who stay home all day without cell phones will inevitably binge-watch TV.
Yan Qing looked at a name on the list with slight surprise: "This production team actually managed to invite Su Mingzhu."
An Jin, who doesn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, asked, "What's wrong? Is this person very famous?"
Yan Qing nodded: "She should be considered famous. Many of the TV dramas I watched when I was a child starred her."
Seeing this, An Jin had Yan Qingzai carefully look through the list and asked, "Take a look at the list, do you recognize any other celebrities?"
She was using Yan Qing to observe the star power of the celebrities invited by the program team.
For someone like Yan Qing, who doesn't watch TV dramas or play games much, if a celebrity could leave an impression on him, they would at least have to be a second-tier celebrity.
Yan Qing carefully read through the list and recognized the names of two child stars besides Su Mingzhu.
He said with a touch of reminiscence, "I remember when we were kids, the children's plays they acted in were incredibly popular."
An Jin glanced at the names of the child stars on the list and added to herself.
Yes, they were popular when they were young, but not so much when they grew up.
This list is essentially a ranking of celebrities.
Su Mingzhu, who is easily recognizable, ranks at the top, while the names of celebrities who are not well-known to the public are listed later.
This is the entertainment industry.
A place where the battles are even more brutal and bloody than those in the live streaming industry.
An Jin turned off the contract that the program team had sent her.
Yan Qing: "What's wrong? Have you thought it through?"
An Jin shook her head: "Such a big matter, I can't figure it out in a short time. It's so late, and I'm too lazy to keep thinking about it. Let's put it aside for now and discuss it together when everyone is here."
Such good treatment made An Jin both tempted and nervous.
The production team is giving so much money because they definitely want An Jin to perform well in the show, not just to be a pretty face.
That's the problem.
Before signing the contract, everything is fine, but after signing the contract and joining the recording crew, things become much more complicated.
An Jin has no connections in the entertainment industry. If the production team edits her out badly in post-production, she won't even have anyone to cry to.
