China Entertainment 1997.

Chapter 267 The Wealthy Flower in the World——Samsung Eldest Princess
Cao Xuan and Lao Pu didn't chat for too long.

JYP has not launched any girl group yet, and Cao Xuan is not interested in the boy group, and JYP is developing well, so there is no need for investment for the time being.

Even if investment is needed, Park Zhenying will definitely give priority to the Korean chaebols, unless Cao Xuan is willing to use the Chinese market as a bargaining chip to enter the game, but this is another price tag.

So the two talked about Mr. Cao's business and Mr. Pu's business for a long time, and Cao Xuan turned around and left Lao Pu behind.

Afterwards, Cao Xuan chatted with Zhou Jianhui, Adam and Warner Head Office representatives in a small meeting room in the hotel.

Compared with Zhou Jianhui in the morning, he was still afraid to give accurate words in many aspects. This time, with the endorsement of the president of the Asian region and the head office, Warner's terms are much more accurate and firm.

The first is the signing fee. The price Zhou Jianhui gave was 8000 million, and now it is directly raised to 2000 million, which is the same as Sony's 1 million signing fee.

This is not Warner's burning more money, but a publicity strategy.

When the two parties renew their contract, the 1 million signing fee will be the focus of publicity, which will greatly increase Cao Xuan's social status and commercial value, and Warner itself will also advertise.

Corporate influence and fame are not only wanted by Sony, but also by Warner.

Of course, because the 1 million is mainly provided by Warner China and Asia, in order to ensure that the capital chain will not be affected, it is impossible for Warner to pay it in one go, and the plan is to settle it in two installments.

The first 5000 million signing fee renewal will be credited, and the remaining 5000 million will be credited at the end of 2002 or early 2003.

Cao Xuan can understand this. After all, 1 million is not a small number, even Sony may not be able to settle it all at once. He has enough cash in his hands, so he agreed to this clause.

In addition, Cao Xuan values ​​European and American resources. Warner promises that Cao Xuan's resources in all aspects of music will not be inferior to the popular singers of the same company.

And if conditions permit, help Cao Xuan hit the Grammy.

The latter item was specifically requested by Cao Xuan, and Warner never thought that Cao Xuan would be included in the Grammys.

But since Cao Xuan insisted, although they felt that Cao Xuan was a little "blindly confident", they still chose to respect the singer.

After all, having said that, if Cao Xuan is really qualified to hit the Grammys, then it would be good for Warner to have an Asian superstar.

In addition, Warner promised to help Cao Xuan enter Hollywood, and the ongoing preparation of "The Matrix 2" will give him an important role.

Hehe, if I hadn't watched "The Matrix 2", I would have been fooled by you...

Cao Xuan knew in his heart that he would most likely be the most powerful character, but it would be nice if he could play a cameo role in this sci-fi masterpiece.

When he first debuted in "Water Margin", he wanted to take Yuan Baye's thigh to Hollywood, but he didn't succeed in it. I didn't expect that he was still asked to act in "The Matrix" after going around.

However, Cao Xuan's thinking is very clear, his current focus is still on the music scene, especially in Europe and America.

It's not that Cao Xuan has no idea about Hollywood, but he also understands how difficult it is for an Asian to be a leading role in Hollywood, let alone a leading role, even a leading role is not easy.

There are so many entertainers in China shouting to kill Hollywood every day, but it is those few action stars who really gain a foothold.

So Cao Xuan has his own plan for the development of his career in Europe and America. Just like in China, he will first focus on the music scene to gain popularity, and then overtake other cars in a corner to feed back film and television.

As long as he has a foundation of fame in Europe and the United States, the rest will be easy to handle. If it doesn't work, he will take Cheng Long and the two brothers together.

With the fame of the two of them in Asia, even if the American market cannot be opened, they can still reap crazy box office when they return to Asia...

It can be said that this is to keep Cao Xuan, and Warner's conditions are very generous and sincere.

However, Warner is not stupid, and will not give Cao Xuan resources for nothing. The new contract period is 3+3, that is, a three-year contract plus three-year absolute priority to renew the contract, and extend Cao Xuan's contract period as much as possible.

In fact, Warner originally planned to sign for eight years, but Cao Xuan disagreed, so both parties took a step back and signed this 3+3.

It is guaranteed that Warner will have a certain degree of autonomy if it encounters a similar situation again.

Of course, the treatment and benefits that should be given to Cao Xuan at that time will not be less, which are all clearly stated in the contract.

At the same time, Cao Xuan has also won full autonomy, which he himself values ​​very much. He has always emphasized that the two parties are in a cooperative relationship, and Warner cannot override Cao Xuan.

Cao Xuan has always been willing to give Warner a chance, and he prefers to continue to reach cooperation, because Warner has done a good job in this regard.

If it were another company, he might not be so capricious...

These independent clauses have always existed in previous contracts, and Warner China is very comfortable with it. The head office is not optimistic about Cao Xuan's future in Europe and the United States, and has not raised any objections to it.

In this way, Cao Xuan still maintains sufficient autonomy. It doesn't matter whether Warner will regret it in the future, it depends on Cao Xuan's performance in Europe and America.

"Good, Chris, hope we can work together for years to come."

After roughly discussing the main terms of the contract, Mike, the representative of Warner Records and one of the directors, extended his hand to Cao Xuan.

"Thank you, the cooperation went well."

Cao Xuan shook hands with Mike, Adam, and Zhou Jianhui, and this cooperation was finally finalized.

However, the details of the follow-up contract will require further discussion between the two parties. Naturally, people from Fanxing will follow up.

When the details of the contract are finalized, the two parties will hold a grand contract renewal ceremony after the Spring Festival, and at the same time officially announce Cao Xuan's entry into the European and American music scene.

After talking about the business, Mike and Adam were going to go to a Korean bar to have fun, and they even made an appointment with Cao Xuan and Lao Zhou.

However, Cao Xuan maintained his awareness of being a public figure, and never went to those public places to show off. As for Lao Zhou, this guy is a good man, and he is very affectionate with his wife, and he doesn't like to mess around.

After despising those two Yankees together with Lao Zhou, Cao Xuan returned to his room and was about to call home.

I saw a girl open the door of her room and come in in a daze, eyes full of ignorance.

"Where is this place, but the bed is so big, I want to sleep (Korean)."

Just as he was about to take off his clothes and pounce on the bed, Cao Xuan grabbed his neck and squeezed him back.

"You put it aside and play Korean dramas for me. Your acting skills are a bit poor."

As soon as the girl entered the door, Cao Xuan sensed something was wrong, his face was a little red, but his eyes were definitely clear enough, and he sneaked a few glances at himself.

No matter what, Cao Xuan is also the Golden Eagle as the emperor, and he can still be blinded by laymen.

Seeing that he couldn't explain clearly to the girl, he immediately called for someone. Warner, JYP and the hotel staff all rushed to the scene. Cao Xuan pointed at the girl lying on the ground and pretending to be dead.

"I didn't touch her. Besides, why does she have the key to my room? Give me an explanation."

Cao Xuan is not Liu Xiahui, the Second Palace of the East and West is very strict, and it is easy to get into trouble, Cao Xuan has never had any crooked thoughts.

But when he was out on business, no one was watching, and there was no interest relationship. When the fate came, Cao Xuan didn't mind having a romantic relationship.

But Cao Xuan would never touch someone who obviously had a plan to deliver it to his door.

Who knows if there is some fairy dance behind it, Brother Dong's lesson is not far behind...

"Sorry, sorry, we were negligent."

JYP and the hotel apologized again and again, and stated that they will definitely give a satisfactory answer.

They took him away, and not long after, the hotel sent someone to negotiate with Cao Xuan.

"Uh, have we met? I always think you look familiar (English)."

Cao Xuan looked at the hotel representative in front of him, with half-length curly hair, fair skin, delicate eyebrows and eyes, sitting on the sofa, dignified yet friendly, and fluent in English.

With such a demeanor, he doesn't look like an ordinary person.

"Mr. Cao, I am Li Fuzhen, the president of Shilla Hotel, and I would like to apologize to you for our negligence in work just now (in English)."

"The name is also familiar."

Cao Xuan recalled it, slapped his forehead, and remembered, the three-star eldest princess who was known as the richest flower in the world who was so famous in later generations.

"I didn't expect such a small matter to alarm President Li."

After all, she is also the daughter of a big chaebol, Cao Xuan is still a little surprised, but there are only a few, and he has met a lot of big shots in the country, so it is not enough to take the initiative for the eldest son of Samsung.

"It's our hotel that caused you trouble, so as the vice president of the hotel, I should apologize.

In addition, I am also a loyal fan of yours personally, and this can be regarded as selfishness. It is a great honor to have a face-to-face communication with my idol. "

Li Fuzhen saw that Cao Xuan discovered his identity, but he was not moved, his eyes shone slightly, and then he continued to speak in a gentle tone.

"Oh, Miss Li is my fan?"

"Yes, I bought a collection when you released your second album in 99. I really like your song "Those Years". The MV is very good, but I don't like the ending in it. It was so emotional to finally be together."

This time it was Cao Xuan's turn to be surprised. "Those Years" is not considered a masterpiece among his songs, at least it is not widely spread in Korea.

Li Fuzhen can tell some details of this song and the MV, even if he is not a real fan, it shows that he has worked hard to make up lessons just now.

Cao Xuan looked at this dignified and confident three-star eldest princess, and had a bad taste.

"As for the second album, I personally prefer the song "First Dream". What do you think of this song?"

"It's a great inspirational song, but my favorite is your new song "Your Answer".

I heard that it was adapted from your real experience. I watched the MV and was very shocked. From you, I can see the shadow of my grandfather. He also started from scratch, possessing the tenacity and hard work of a man. "

Then you call me grandpa!
Cao Xuan really wanted to say something, but he was afraid that the three-star princess would turn his back on her. After all, she was on his territory, so it was better to be on the safe side.

And Li Fuzhen's words made Cao Xuan slightly believe that she is his fan.

Of course, it's also very possible that Li Fuzhen had already prepared for it, and she definitely wouldn't have prepared the materials so thoroughly just now.

However, when the Asian King stays in the hotel he manages, it is not always necessary to prepare some customer information in advance. Now something happened and he came here to get close.

Li Fuzhen saw Cao Xuan's hesitation, and continued to tell Cao Xuan's information on his own, and even a lot of information about Cao Xuan was not known by many people in China.

This level of data collection is a bit too much if it is only for hotel customers, even if Samsung chooses a spokesperson, it may not be so detailed.

"Well, now you believe that I am your fan."

Seeing Cao Xuan who was getting confused, Princess Three Stars blinked her eyes at him, showing a rare sly look on her dignified and elegant face.

Cao Xuan was a little bit embarrassed by being punctured: "I'm sorry, I really didn't expect what Miss Li said to be true."

"It doesn't matter. I'm very happy to be able to communicate with my idol. I just didn't expect Mr. Cao to be so narrow in private. If I lied just now, I'm afraid you will make fun of me."

"Sorry, I was really out of style just now, I hope Miss Li doesn't mind."

Cao Xuan is still very friendly to his true fans, he did have something wrong just now, it was just a polite remark, there is no need to run on them.

"You don't have to apologize."

Li Fuzhen waved his hand at Cao Xuan and said with a smile, "I think you are very interesting and cute."

cute?

Cao Xuan took a look at Li Fuzhen, why did he think this three-star eldest princess was weird.

She is married!
I have sworn that even if I starve to death and jump off the Han River Bridge, I will never touch my wife...
