New York 1988

Chapter 18 Crazy Publicity Planning

Michael Jackson helped him selflessly because of his previous friendship, and because he really liked him.

Of course, it may also be because he is a black man that he managed to break through the invisible shackles back then. Now seeing Han Sheng who is of Chinese descent and sympathetic to the same disease, he empathizes with him and wants to help him even more.

In short, it was his kindness and helpfulness.

It's just that, sometimes, bad guys will take advantage of this to slander him, pit him, and hurt him. There are too many such examples later.

Um, back to the topic, helping out is helping out, and personal friendship is personal friendship, but the matter of interests must also be made clear.

However, neither Michael Jackson nor Han Sheng participated in this.

Frank DiNeo is Michael Jackson's agent, and Michael's interests are also involved in his interests, so the lion opened his mouth at the beginning, "Generally, the artist's royalties for newcomers are around 10%, and then the producer's fee is deducted. , maybe only 5% or even lower, but for the sake of the friendship between Michael and Vincent, we only need [-]% of the profit after the release of this record!"

Dorothy is not vegetarian either.

She had always treated Michael Jackson politely before, not even saying a word, as if she had changed herself.

However, when it was her turn to do something, she jumped up again, "It's still only [-]%. If you calculate it this way, after deducting the commission from the publisher, we might as well drink the Northwest Wind. You have to figure it out, this All the songs are written by Vincent, and even the arrangements are done, you just need to record them casually, how much is that worth?"

"Oh, how much is it worth? This is Michael Jackson, and his name is worth half of the money. And with Michael's card, the resources that can be provided to you are even more unimaginable. For example, it is more powerful to find, and the distribution fee is lower. For example, if you just make a noise, there will be a lot of media reports, the record will be sold, Vincent will become famous immediately, etc.!"

"Michael said just now to help him for free, but you said that the title is worth half of the benefits. Well, if you get rid of this, you should only get four achievements. Of course, for Michael's sake, we will Give me an extra ten percent!"

"Shet, you send the beggars, at least 80.00% five, this is not negotiable.

You know, it was Michael who was willing to help him make a record, other than that, there was no one else in this world! "

"Oh, there is no one else. You know Vincent's talent very well. Michael can see it, and everyone else can see it. It's just a matter of time!"

Dorothy and Frank Dineo were arguing very loudly in the room, all kinds of meat and vegetables were not taboo, and even the more they went to the back, the more they seemed to be arguing for the sake of quarreling.

This is a matter of interest, the benefit of the two parties not discussing directly.

Otherwise, no matter how good a friend is, it is easy to hurt feelings.

In fact, Han Sheng is quite satisfied with the current situation.

First, he had no money, so he couldn’t make his own record; second, due to the shackles of his Chinese identity, even if he produced it, it would be difficult to find a distributor. Therefore, Michael Jackson was willing to help him, and he was already very grateful.

Then, if a newcomer signs a contract with another label or even a major record company, even if he writes the lyrics and composes the music himself, the initial share will not be too high. If he wants to get a high share, he must wait until he becomes popular.

Moreover, in that case, a few albums or several years will be signed at once, and the degree of freedom will be very limited, or even completely trapped.

Therefore, with Michael Jackson helping so much now, even if the share is very low, he is willing to accept it.

Thinking of this, he turned to look at Michael Jackson.

Coincidentally, the other party just turned around.

Then, as if they had a tacit understanding, both of them hesitated for a moment, and then said almost simultaneously, "Thirty to seven!"

After finishing speaking, when they heard the same answer as themselves, the two of them burst into laughter, and Michael Jackson extended his hand to give him a high five, "Wow, buddy, we really have a tacit understanding. How to put it, I feel that we can meet each other." It may really be the arrangement of fate!"

"The fate has favored me too much!" Han Sheng flattered him calmly.

Michael Jackson laughed louder, pointing at him, "Dude, you can really talk, I really like you more and more!"

……

Thirty-seven points, even if the publisher's commission is as high as [-]%, Han Sheng can still get about [-]% of the profit;
If it is low, he may still get close to 20.00% of the interest. Even if the lyrics and music are all his, it is already great.

Han Sheng was really satisfied.

Therefore, while the excitement of meeting the terms with Michael Jackson was still there, he invited him to a small reception room with no outsiders.

"It seems you have something to say!" Michael Jackson laughed.

"Uh, I suddenly have a very rough plan to release a film, including publicity and so on," Han Sheng said very politely, "Well, I hope you don't think I'm 'nosy' or even a little arrogant or something like that...!"

"No, I'm looking forward to it!" Michael Jackson encouraged.

"Thank you!" Han Sheng really thanked him for his tolerance: "I still remember that you said that "Dangerous" looks like your style, and then you posted it, plus your recommendation, it should be able to attract attention in the first place.

I also joked at the time that this will not form a competition, and you will be under a lot of pressure by then.

You said arrogantly at the time, I am Michael Jackson, the king of pop.

He also said that I was still worried that someone would say that I learned from you, and that I didn't learn well, and that I might be scolded at that time.

That's what gave me an idea.

It is not terrible to be scolded, it is terrible to be completely ignored.

However, if my Chinese identity is operated normally, basically no one will pay attention to it, and even some people will deliberately ignore it, let alone praise me happily.

So, for my identity, the way to attract attention is undoubtedly to be scolded.

And scolding is not a compliment, and it seems that I don't get any benefits.Then, for the purpose of suppressing and destroying me, some media will not only not stop the flow of information, but will directly follow up and even intensify their attacks on me.

Due to various factors, although it will be terrible, it will probably cause my news to be everywhere, and then many people will know my name. "

"Cheese, I think you're crazy!"

Michael Jackson couldn't help but say something at this time, but he was also trembling with excitement because he felt some hidden awesome operations in Han Sheng's plan, "Go on, boy, how can you quickly eliminate these curses? Well, otherwise, you will be doomed!"

"It's very simple, the quality of the music." Han Sheng smiled confidently, "If you scold me happily, it will definitely attract attention, and then some people will kill the cat out of curiosity and want to listen to it and take a look. Category.

If the quality of our music is really bad, then we are really screwed.

However, if the quality of the music is not bad, then music lovers are not fools, and naturally they will not believe them, but will pay attention to me and even like me.

Then, maybe they will recommend it to friends and colleagues. At that time, it will be the so-called word-of-mouth victory.

Of course, this is only one aspect.

On the other hand, after taking advantage of the popularity, we will release two more powerful singles to attract more support from fans of different music styles.At the same time, you, the king of pop, and the publishers we are looking for will work together to find various media that can help us to compete with our enemies on various topics in the market place. The popularity is full again to attract more people's attention, and at the same time it can help me 'whitewash' some...

In this way, in the end, in the worst ending, someone will definitely like me and my music, and the good result is that there are mixed reviews and even more people like me.

But no matter what, I must have survived and gained a reputation! "

These are all leftovers from the entertainment circle of later generations.

But for now, it's still pretty fresh.

After all, at this time, no one dared to stand up to all kinds of insults to gain fame.

Just like what Michael Jackson said just now, that is really the behavior of a lunatic.

Therefore, after listening to him roughly speaking, Michael Jackson admired: "Although I don't know what the result will be, but Mare Falk, on your terms, this crazy plan is simply a genius idea." .

No wonder you're only 15 and going to the Ivy League. "
