Chapter 8: Perfect Call
Chapter 8 The Perfect Incoming Call
According to An Xiaojing, she submitted the score to her producer, but the producer does not have the power to select or remove a song individually, so even if he likes it, he must report it to the manager and obtain the consent of the manager .
And the manager of An Xiaojing was a vice president of the record company she was working for, so the timing of an executive at that level was not so easy to grasp.
Maybe if you see the right eye, it will be settled in ten minutes.
Maybe just to find him and report to him, a few days have passed.
can only wait.
But this kind of waiting time, in the eyes of others, is very enviable.
After all, he and An Xiaojing are alone!
With such a good-looking figure, she is the goddess in the eyes of many boys in the Conservatory of Music.
Because the two were going to practice songs together, of course they went to the restaurant to eat together after the end, and even brought Guo Kun, Pang Yongxi, Li Yuquan and Yuan Wei together, and everyone became more and more familiar.
It’s just that Li Yuquan’s face is always not good-looking.
But the current situation is that An Xiaojing’s idea is firm, her cooperation with Xu Zhenghua has become the most important thing for the two of them recently, and frequent contact between the two is inevitable.
He either didn’t come, or he could only watch An Xiaojing become more and more affectionate with Xu Zhenghua.
No news that day.
No news the next day.
Still no news on the third day.
On the night of the third day, Xu Zhenghua suddenly received a strange call.
On the other end of the phone was the voice of a middle-aged man. After confirming that it was Xu Zhenghua, he said straight to the point: “Hello Zhenghua, my name is Chen Bangdao, I am the agent of Zhongtian Brokerage Company, and I will take care of your agent. Magnolia is from the same company. Du Xuelan of Kojima Records is my signed artist. Kojima Records, you should be familiar with it, right?”
is really cooked.
An Xiaojing’s contract company!
I was waiting for a reply from there recently.
“Oh, hello Mr. Chen.”
“I’m straight to the point, Xue Lan saw your song, “Short Hair”. She likes it very much. I heard that your song hasn’t been sold yet, right? Can you talk about it?”
Xu Zhenghua reacted for a while before coming back to his senses.
In other words, An Xiaojing handed over the sheet music, and she didn’t know whether her manager saw it or not. Anyway, there was no result, and the sheet music had already flowed out internally?
This level of management… air leakage!
is not entirely impossible to talk about.
The name of the artist he mentioned just now is quite popular in my impression. At least the original owner bought one of her CDs. Although the specific sales volume and popularity are unknown, at least it will not be worse than Jin Xiaoqing.
In the face of such a popular singer, the weak will definitely be weak.
But if the other party likes it very much, you still have a certain amount of initiative in your hand, and you can slightly regain the disadvantage.
“Oh, that’s it! But I have already promised to give that song to An Xiaojing, you should know this too? I’m not good…”
“The contract hasn’t been signed, has it?”
Xu Zhenghua was silent.
If there is an opportunity for cooperation, it is not impossible to cooperate with a mature and popular artist, and even reduce a lot of risk factors, but he will never cooperate with anyone when he is at an absolute disadvantage. People who cooperate with each other – they were strong in the last life, and they don’t plan to be weak in this life.
The other party didn’t know if he had understood the meaning of Xu Zhenghua’s silence, and immediately expressed his position, “Adding the lyrics and music together, the advance payment of 30,000 yuan, and the 7% royalty share, this is something Xue Lan can easily win for you, no matter how high it is. It’s not that we can’t talk about it at all. Besides, it will have a great chance of being included in Xue Lan’s next album!”
Look, look!
I knew it!
When the word “great chance” comes out, it means that the initiative is completely out of your own hands.
For an ordinary rookie creator, to cooperate with a mature and well-known singer if he can come up, he must wait for a certain period of time.
But Xu Zhenghua still decided not to accept it.
But this is still good news – at least it shows that the works he brought from another world, in this world, will still be generally favored by singers, isn’t it?
Moreover, knowing one more person means one more channel.
An Xiaojing is of course the best choice at the moment, but no one can be sure if she can count on it!
“Also, Xue Lan appreciates your style very much. She has a contract with Kojima Records, and she still has the last new song to choose from. She only needs three or four new songs. She plans to use these songs, Let’s do some transition testing. She thinks your style is very suitable for her. Once this cooperation is successful, she is very willing to cooperate with you for a long time in the future… You should understand that you can work with a person who has steadily passed the platinum line with each album. Long-term cooperation with mature singers will put you on a very high platform, right?”
“Well, yes, I understand, and thank you very much for what you said… Xue Lan, oh, Miss Du Xuelan likes this song so much. I would also like to collaborate with her if I have the opportunity in the future, but this song… I’m sorry, I I have already promised An Xiaojing, so…”
This time, it was the other side’s turn to be silent for a moment.
“It has nothing to do with money, right?”
“Yes.”
“Ok, I see.”
The other side was silent for a while, but he asked the next sentence, “Don’t you need to communicate with your agent? I know, many creators would like to work with someone very much, and I understand it very well. I want to represent Xue Lan now. Take this opportunity to cooperate, try it out, I respect you very much, and Xue Lan also respects you very much, so instead of contacting your agent directly through internal channels, I contact you directly…”
“Yes, thank you, thank you for understanding. But… in the future, is it okay?”
The other party was silent for a moment, “Okay, understandable. Then I wish you a successful cooperation!”
“thanks!”
“goodbye!”
“goodbye!”
hung up the phone, Xu Zhenghua went to his CD rack immediately, not to mention, the original owner really bought her album at the beginning, it is not difficult to recall that it should have been bought last spring.
This should be her last album.
Listening to what her manager said, I must have gotten the platinum album long ago.
In the past few years, this Du Xuelan should still be quite popular.
Unfortunately, there is no internet, so I can’t easily check Wikipedia, check music reviews or fans’ discussions.
No way, in the pre-Internet era, if you want to know this, you have to read relevant newspapers and magazines, or watch TV and listen to the radio. Other than that, there are few other channels for receiving information.
However, the anxiety has been greatly relieved.
With the city government that Xu Zhenghua has tempered over the years, of course he will not bring the anxiety of waiting to his ordinary life, let alone bring it to his face, but deep down, he is still anxious after all.
In the circle of Key Records, he has never been familiar with him in his entire life.
Unfamiliar circles, it is easy to lose confidence.
it’s good now.
First, we can be sure that “Short Hair” is liked by big-name singers, so there is one more choice. Second, it is also certain that at least “The Coward”, “My Favorite Him”, and “Cinderella” will most likely be liked.
Perfect for incoming calls.
Looking back, Guo Kun was still wearing headphones, listening to CDs while reading novels. Xu Zhenghua also took his portable CD player and headphones and decided to listen to Du Xuelan’s album again.
Do one line and love one line!
Now that you have decided to take a trip into this field, you must make up for the homework that should be made up.
Even if you don’t love it.
But just after I put on the earphones, the phone in the dormitory rang again.
“Lao Xu, you can take it, I guess I’m looking for you again!”
Xu Zhenghua went over to pick up the microphone, “Hello?”
“Xu Zhenghua, just got a call, why do we always want to see you and go together tomorrow morning?”
Wow, is there any news at last, “Okay! What time is tomorrow? See you at the school gate?”
The **** the other end of the phone was obviously very excited, “Eight thirty! If you have a class, remember to ask for a leave of absence, Mr. He will meet you around ten!”
“okay!”
Putting down the phone, Xu Zhenghua clenched his fists.
My first pot of gold is coming!
