Chapter 305 Cover Album
A few minutes later, Luo Shao knocked on the door of the general manager's office, and stood in front of the desk in a regular manner. The majestic man behind the desk was somewhat similar to him in appearance, and it was not difficult to see that they were related.

Mr. Luo lit a cigarette, took a puff, and exhaled two streams of smoke from his nostrils, before he spoke: "Did you force Ning Lan to transfer, or was it due to the grudge between you young people?"

This question was quite abrupt, and Young Master Luo was obviously taken aback for a moment. Boss Luo looked at him, and before waiting for an answer, he said again: "If it was purely forced by you, then I can only say that you let me down, if it is You have completely lost the fighting spirit between you young people."

Mr. Luo took a puff of tobacco, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know the reason why Ning Lan suddenly retired back then, but I'm sure it has something to do with you and was forced by you."

Luo Shao's face changed slightly, and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Boss Luo let out the rising shreds of tobacco, looked into his son's eyes, and said calmly: "Ning Lan's last album before retiring, if you hadn't made some moves, there is a chance to achieve the default double platinum in the first month, I will open my eyes and close it One glance, no stop, do you know why?"

"Also, Ning Lan chose to retire. I didn't come forward to persuade her to stay, but acquiesced. Why?"

Luo Shao knew that his father was testing him. After thinking about it, he said: "At that time, Ning Lan's contract period was only nine months. With generous conditions, if you transfer, it's like making a wedding dress for someone else."

After a pause, seeing that his father didn't say anything, he continued: "Ning Lan is here, Su Yaqing and Shu Zhen can only compete for the second female lead. They both have unwilling personalities, and they will transfer in all likelihood when the contract expires. Lan chose to retire, which is equivalent to one woman going away and the other two staying."

As he said that, he hesitated for a moment, and tentatively said: "If Ning Lan didn't retire, but transferred, would you come forward to persuade her to stay?"

Mr. Luo nodded slowly, and then said: "It seems that you are not confused. Then this time, what explanation do you have?"

Luo Shao was silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It was my mistake."

Mr. Luo snorted softly: "This is not a small mistake, the aftermath is very serious. Because of your face loss, Rolling Snow Records was even maliciously speculated that you are strong on the outside and dry on the inside, and it has reached the point where you can succeed after you sell it."

"There are a lot of criticisms against you in the company, and there are many high-level executives. The reason why the capital injection plan you proposed at the beginning was so easy to pass is very important. Time Records has Ning Lan and Li Kai. They are the two partners of this capital injection. Insurance!"

After finishing speaking, he pointed with his hand: "You didn't explain, and I won't force you, but I want to remind you a few words, you are the owner of Time Records now, and Hua Can poached Ning Lan from you, which has become If you want to erase one of your stains, there are only two ways, either to destroy Huacan, or Time Records to create a super-line."

"You and I both know that Li Kai is not Huacan's behind-the-scenes boss, but also a major shareholder. In a sense, you and him are already enemies on opposite sides, but you suppress Huacan, but you suppress Huacan You can't touch Li Kai, whether he runs a commercial show or an endorsement, as much as he earns, Time Records earns the same amount, hurting others and yourself, that is the most stupid behavior."

"Besides, the double insurance has already lost one weight, and if you lose another weight, you are ready to vacate the position of chairman of Time Records."

Luo Shao frowned: "Aren't I going to coax him and support him?"

Mr. Luo shook his head expressionlessly: "Yesterday, the person in charge of Huacan was interviewed by the media and bluntly said that he treats the newcomer as a king and queen. Before that, seven singers under Huacan released videos. Rely on Li Shi's continuous delivery, at least in the short term."

"In the past, he was hidden in the snow, it was only related to the individual, but now if he is hidden in the snow, it will affect Huacan's development and even survival. You have taboos, so does he."

"So, I can only say that you and him use each other, restrict each other, and play games with each other."

"The real winner is the competition between the singers under Time Records and the singers under Huacan Music Studio. Don't forget, the real purpose of the company investing such a large amount of money into Time Records."

Luo Shao digested in silence for a while, nodded and said: "I understand."

Boss Luo hummed and waved to leave.

Watching his son leave the office, the cigarette between Mr. Luo's fingers was burned to the end, and he pressed it in the ashtray to extinguish it. He let out a long breath and shook his head with a sigh.

In fact, the sequelae are far more than what he said. For example, Ning Lan won the endorsement of DS. Open your mouth and refuse
These were all blamed on Luo Shao, and the source of the matter was Ning Lan's transfer!
It can be said that Luo Shao's reputation in the circle and the company's senior management are optimistic about Luo Shao, so it's just a one-time discount of at least [-]%.

This is the price that Young Master Luo has to pay for a mistake!

After lunch, Li Kai took half a day off, took a taxi to Huacan Music Studio, called Su Ting and Ni Houdao, and the three entered the conference room together.

"Brother, sister Ning received a call from DS yesterday. She suspected it was a scammer. She checked the switchboard of DS and called back to make sure that she believed it. I left at noon yesterday, but I didn't expect to sign a contract this morning. It's amazing. I arrived It still feels like a dream!"

Su Ting looked excited, the endorsement fee from DS was almost double the list price, and it was signed for two years, and the studio split half, that is more than 300 million.

That's not to mention, DS's advertising budget is extremely high, and Ning Lan won the endorsement. With the launch of the advertisement, she will also gain a great exposure.

It will be of great benefit to maintaining or even improving Ning Lan's popularity!

"Of the 650 million, 50 is mine." Li Kai glanced at her, pointed to his nose, and told the truth about the fact that the advertisement was tied to the spokesperson.

Su Ting and Ni Houdao were stunned when they heard this.

Su Ting's eyes flickered slightly: "Brother Zhang, according to what you said, it's all thanks to you that Sister Ning can become the spokesperson of DS?"

Li Kai didn't take credit for it: "You can't say that, if Sister Ning doesn't meet the basic standards of endorsement if she doesn't become a queen, then she's definitely useless. I'm just making a difference."

Ni Houdao asked suspiciously, "Since when have you been able to handle advertisements?"

Li Kai shrugged his shoulders: "It's just an occasional advertisement. It's like, those ancient literati suddenly got inspired when they drank too much. They wrote a poem and a couplet, which turned out to be an eternal quatrain."

Ni Houdao gave him a look that would be strange if he believed you.

Li Kai didn't get entangled in this topic, but instead asked: "Has the liquidated damages of the Jiurui team arrived?"

Su Ting nodded.

Li Kai said: "Lin Yue, hurry up on Zhang Wenxin's transfer."

Su Ting said hello.

Li Kai looked at Ni Hou again and said, "How is Ade's preparations for the concert?"

Next Saturday, September 9rd, Adelaide's six-place six-show tour will start, and the first stop is Shenzhen!

"The progress is not bad, 24 songs are already sung by heart"

Ni Houdao talked about Ade's situation, and then said: "From this Thursday, we will advertise and issue tickets. Are you sure Ade is the one who takes the lead?"

Li spread out his hands: "Is there any other plan? The three of Duoyun's single is not yet full moon, at most they will be guests."

After finishing speaking, the topic changed: "However, I have been thinking about it for the past few days, and I have an idea to ask Ade to grab an album, and the release date is set to be the day before the first tour!"

As soon as these words came out, Ni Houdao trembled and almost ran from the chair to the ground. Su Ting was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped.

Today is Tuesday, and there are only eleven days left until next Saturday.

To catch up with the release of the album on the tenth day, the shortest production time for the factory is five days, that is, counting today, the album must be recorded within five days.

There are usually ten songs in an album, and there is not one song yet, how can it be completed?

Even if there are ready-made songs, ten first record a demo, and then the singer sings it repeatedly, five days may not be enough.

Li Kai's idea is not only outrageous, it is simply a fantasy.

Li looked at the expressions of the two, not surprised at all, and smiled: "There is enough time, the album only needs two title songs, and the other eight songs are all cover songs."

Ni Houdao was taken aback: "A cover song?"

Li Jing said: "This matter still needs to be communicated with Shuteng Records, and the copyright of the cover song will be granted."

Of the 24 songs that Ade prepared for the concert, except for one of his own, the other 23 were covers, of which 10 were Li Kai's works, and the remaining 13 were provided by Shuteng Records.

Ni Houdao was a little taken aback: "In my impression, there is no singer in the domestic music scene who has released such an album that is almost pure cover."

Su Ting interjected: "Yes, Chu Anger released one, and I heard it when I was in middle school."

Ni Houdao rolled his eyes: "Please, that's not a cover album, but a concert selection. At least half of the songs are from the singer himself, and the rest are covers from the concert."

In this regard, Ni Houdao is an authority, and Su Ting has no doubts about him, so she said oh, sticking out her tongue embarrassingly.

"There is no domestic music scene yet, so that's just right, it will set a precedent."

Li opened his face indifferently, grinning and said: "Anyway, this is not the first time our studio has done this kind of thing."

A few black lines fell down Ni Houdao's forehead, his expression was weak.

So is Su Ting!
The truth is true, since the establishment of the studio, the four singers have released videos together, the newcomers will go on tour with a single, and the queen will transfer, treating the newcomers as if they were kings and queens.
These are the first of its kind in the circle!
It's just that Li Kai came up with an idea in his head, which made people feel a little out of control!
"Are you sure?"

"Have you decided?"

After a little silence, Ni Houdao and Su Ting confirmed in unison.

Li Kai nodded, with a firm expression on his face: "To tell you the truth, I chose Ade at the beginning because his voice and temperament are suitable for cover singing. The first album is a cover album. The tour is over, now it's just early."

Hearing what Li Kai said, both of them knew that he had made up his mind, and they agreed in unison without talking nonsense as usual.
