Although the core executives of the company did not agree with Li Yang's contract payment and salary system, they could only give their opinions and could not interfere with Li Yang's decision.
Because Li Yang was the wholly-owned shareholder of MT Company, he owned 100% of the shares. He could make any decision he wanted, even if Miller only had the right to make suggestions and not the right to make decisions.
At the end of 2005, Li Yang's proposal of a host's contract payment and salary system was indeed very advanced. However, this was a necessary stage. In the absence of any benefits, which host would do their best to broadcast based on their interests?
Li Yang wanted to create a streamer profession in advance. If streamers wanted to make more money, then he had to show his value.
In short, a big streamer could earn millions of dollars a year, and Li Yang could naturally earn the same amount of money from this big streamer, or even more.
Li Yang was not a philanthropist. Whether it was the host's signing fee or monthly salary, they were all earned by the hosts themselves, and the TT live streaming platform had already taken a large portion of the money they earned.
Even if these streamers couldn't make much money for the time being, their value would be reflected in the future.
Regardless of whether it was the host signing fee or the host salary system, these two monetary rewards were only to provide the host with the motivation to broadcast and attract more people to join the live broadcast industry.
The online live broadcast market was still in its infancy. Li Yang needed to burn money to cultivate this new market. The more money he burned, the faster the market would be cultivated.
When the market was completely mature, it would be the time for Li Yang to reap the benefits.
…………
On the morning of the second day, the HR department of MT Company formulated a detailed contract payment and salary system for live streamers based on the ideas provided by Li Yang. They also held a press conference to announce this news to the outside world in order to attract more people to join the emerging profession of live streamers.
Of these two plans, the host's signing fee was easier to get. As long as your fans met the standards and successfully signed a contract to become a signed host, you could get the corresponding signing fee.
When your fan count increases and reaches a higher number, your signing bonus will also be replenished to make up for the difference.
As for the final salary plan, it was not so easy to get it.
First of all, the contracted host had to meet the monthly live broadcast duration. If he did not meet the requirements, he would not be paid.
Secondly, based on the number of fans you have, you have to maintain a certain monthly average daily active audience. If you can't meet this requirement, you won't be paid.
Although streamers had to meet these two conditions if they wanted to get the corresponding contract salary, it wasn't difficult for streamers. As long as they worked hard to stream, they could meet the requirements and get a salary.
At this point in 2005, the contract payment and host salary system announced by MT Live Streaming Company was like a stone that caused a thousand waves. The entire Internet industry was in an uproar, and even the United States was shocked by it.
The media outlets in the United States were not stingy with their reports.
The company had created a new Internet miracle. In ten days, the company had tens of millions of registered users. A medium-sized and large-sized Internet company was born. According to rumors, the valuation of the major venture capital institutions on the platform had been raised to 2 billion gold. Li Yang's net worth had tripled in just two months…
A brand new profession was born. It was called a streamer. In order to cultivate excellent streamers, the station offered a generous signing fee and a high monthly salary. God, if you were a streamer with millions of fans, you could get a signing fee of 2 million dollars and a monthly salary of 200,000 dollars…
There was no doubt that the TT company was expanding the live streaming market. They were great pioneers and explorers. At present, due to the emergence of the high anchor signing fee and monthly salary plan, the number of registered anchors on the TT live streaming platform was increasing at a terrifying speed…
Looking at the media reports, there was an uproar from all walks of life in America.
"This is unbelievable. A streamer can actually become a professional. As long as you have more than 10,000 fans, you can get a contract fee of 10,000 dollars and a monthly salary of 3000 dollars.”
" I've been watching the live broadcast on the TT live streaming platform these few days. The host with the number one fan count is called Angela. Her fan count has already exceeded 500,000, and she has already signed a contract. Doesn't that mean that she can get a signing fee of 100,000 dollars and a monthly salary of 20,000 dollars..."
" Don't say anything else. I'm going to register for a live streaming account on the TT live streaming platform now. If there are viewers who like my live streaming, why would I need to go to work? I'll just sit at home and earn money…"
" The TT live streaming platform has just achieved dazzling results, and Li Yang has already come up with such a plan. He's just fooling around. Currently, the TT company is unable to make a profit. Maintaining the normal operation of the entire company is already a huge expenditure. If they pay the anchors a signing fee and monthly salary, how will the TT company make money? How could a company that could not make a profit survive?”
"Although what you said makes sense, I think Li Yang definitely has a way to make money. After all, the TT live streaming platform has tens of millions of users, and the major venture capital institutions have raised their valuation again. This means that the venture capital institutions are also optimistic about the future of the TT live streaming platform…"
" From the perspective of a live streaming audience, I'm very supportive of the plan of the TT company. Only after the streamers earn money can they provide more exciting live streaming content for the audience, thus enriching the public's leisure life…"
……………………
In an ordinary apartment near New York University.
Angela, who had just finished her live broadcast, was reading the news online.
She was now the number one streamer on the TT live streaming platform. According to the growth rate of her fans, perhaps after the end of the month, she could get the 1 million yuan ranking reward.
This money was very important to Angela. It could support her to continue her studies. Otherwise, she would have to take out a loan and pay it back after graduation.
Don't think that life in America was good. In fact, it was not the case at all. Most Americans could not even take out a few thousand dollars. Other than the elites, the ordinary people were all spending ahead of time, which was to spend money from the future.
An ordinary American who had just graduated from university had already owed a huge amount of money. Because he needed to spend money to go to school, he had no choice but to borrow money from the bank. After borrowing, he had to pay it back, and there was also interest.
Many Americans found a job after graduation. It would take ten to twenty years to pay off their university loans. Some people even paid off their university loans until they were 60 years old.
This was not to say that the loan was too much, but that the Americans had a lot of loans on them. He could not pay them off in one go and could only pay them off slowly.
The US was a country with an extremely developed financial industry. Those who played with the financial industry would make advance purchases. They would first lend you money for you to spend, and then let you spend your entire life to pay it back.
Think about it, when you keep spending in advance and repay your loans year after year, a large portion of the wealth you create in your life may be converted into loan interest and be pocketed by banks or financial institutions.
In a country that was known as free, the elites used legal means to make you a tool to help them make money.
The moon in foreign countries was not round. If you didn't see it with your own eyes, you wouldn't be able to imagine how dark it was.
Inside the house, Angela, who was reading the news online, suddenly screamed,""God, is this true?"
The news website's main page displayed the host contract payment and salary system announced by the company. Below it were the corresponding rules and requirements.
" My fans are about to break through 600,000. Then, I can get a signing fee of 100,000 dollars and a monthly salary of 20,000 dollars…" Angela's breathing quickened, and her beautiful face was filled with ecstasy.
She felt like a pie had fallen from the sky and hit her right in the face.
Soon, Angela woke up. She opened the official website and saw a huge banner showing the host's signing fee, salary system, and other English words.
Then, Angela immediately clicked on it. The information inside was exactly the same as the information on the news website.
At this moment, Angela knew that it was true. She could make a living as an anchor and even live a better life.
" A signing fee of 100,000 dollars and a monthly salary of 20,000 dollars. This is incredible…" Angela was very excited. She was still in university. With this income, she did not need to apply for a school loan from the bank.
"I can get the signing fee after signing the contract. I've already signed the contract.”Angela's beautiful eyes lit up. She quickly took out her phone and called the HR manager of the company.
A few seconds later, a hearty laugh came from the other end of the phone."Hi, Angela, why are you calling me?”
" Director Canon, I'd like to ask about the signing fee…" Angela's face was slightly red. Her conditions were not good, and she needed money very much.
" About this..." The other end of the phone paused for a moment and continued,""According to the boss's instructions, as long as all the contracted streamers meet the requirements for the signing fee and provide a bank account, the company will pay the corresponding signing fee within a day. However, this bank account must be a stable account because the monthly salary will also be paid to this account!”
"Supervisor Canon, I'll immediately provide you with my bank account. Can you ask the company to pay the signing fee faster?”Angela said with a red face, a little embarrassed.
She was almost out of money. Moreover, she had not been working part-time recently and had been broadcasting live. Therefore, she was short of money. After all, she still had to eat.
"Angela, I understand your situation. You're one of the key streamers trained by MT Company. Send me your bank account number, and I'll go to the finance department to urge them to get it done in an hour!”
"Supervisor Canon, thank you so much!”Angela waved her hand excitedly.
"Angela, this is my job and my responsibility. You don't have to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank the boss. It was the boss who pushed for such a salary system despite the opposition of the core management.”
" Big Boss, Mr. Li…" Angela couldn't help but stick out her tongue. To her, Li Yang was like a big shot sitting in the clouds. She wanted to thank him but couldn't see him.
…………………
There were many anchors like Angela who called to ask around in the US. They were all anchors with more than 10,000 fans. They could get a signing fee and enjoy the monthly salary of the anchor.
The reason why these hosts called to ask was mainly to confirm if this was true. If it was true, wouldn't they be able to get the signing fee?
Most of the live streamers who had over 10,000 fans on the entire TT live streaming platform were ordinary people. The lowest signing fee was 10,000 dollars. This amount of money was not a small sum to them. It could be considered a small sum of money.
Even though the US had a population of hundreds of millions, perhaps one-third of the Americans did not even have 10,000 gold coins in cash.
