Chapter 47 Prepare to Sign the Contract
Chapter 57 ready to sign

"Brother Qi, stop joking with me. I promised to write songs for you two months ago. How can I collect money for promising you to write songs for you? Just take it and use it, don't mention those things that hurt your feelings. "Giving other people's songs to the other party himself, but also to control people's collection of money, this kind of thing is unknown to others, but Sun Hao can't do it. Besides, Sun Hao can collect money from Jin Dian's manager, because it is a sale. Copyright, but you can't collect money from singers.This is an unwritten rule in the entertainment industry. Who has ever seen someone who helped others write a song and charged others money?After that, after Sun Hao became famous, he didn't have any songs to write, so he asked others to write songs for him, and he also had to pay others?It would be too troublesome to go back and forth like that.

"Then if this is the case, I will not be polite, Sun Hao, you must speak up if you can use me in the future." Hearing what Sun Hao said, Ren Xianqi did not refuse. Originally, seeing the other party's young age, he thought Sun Hao didn't understand the rules of the entertainment industry, so he asked Sun Hao for money, but he didn't expect to be rejected by Sun Hao, which made Ren Xianqi secretly admire Sun Hao's understanding of the rules.

About playing the song, Sun Hao and Ren Xianqi chatted for a while, because Ren Xianqi was impatient to go back and analyze the song that Sun Hao gave him, so after the two talked for a few words, Ren Xianqi said Apologizing, he hurriedly left the teahouse. In order not to be photographed by the paparazzi, Sun Hao got up and went back to the hotel after a while.

"Ahao, you are really amazing, you can even cooperate with Jacky Cheung, you didn't see the eyes of those people when you sang, they are all admiration! It seems that it is right to come to XG this time, to be able to get in touch with XG There are many stars here." Back at the hotel, Song Chunfeng watched Sun Hao just finished singing with Jacky Cheung this morning, and then went to see Ren Xianqi in the afternoon, at this time Song Chunfeng said to Sun Hao with great envy.

"Brother Feng, this is just the beginning. When we have our own record company, more people will come into contact with the entertainment industry." Sun Hao lay on the bed and said to Song Chunfeng beside him, he also felt that today It's a bit vague, but when you think about the future development, these are nothing.

On the second day, Zhu Jianbin still came to Sun Hao's room early in the morning, which made Sun Hao feel whether Zhu Jianbin would be with him for a day's work.

"Ah Hao, today we can go to the company to discuss the signing of the contract." Zhu Jianbin told the company's human resources manager what happened yesterday. Sure enough, after hearing that Sun Hao not only collaborated with Jacky Cheung on a song, but also with Ren Xianqi. When it was time for friendship, he immediately re-examined Sun Hao's signing plan, and told Zhu Jianbin that he would let Sun Hao come to the company to discuss the signing tomorrow no matter what.

Sun Hao also knew that it was almost time to talk about the signing of the contract. He couldn't just hang around here all the time. Solving the problem earlier would also play a key role in his future development.

So a few people came to Universal Music Company again, but this time they came to the company as quasi-signed singers, not as visitors, so this time the HR manager and president assistant of Universal Music Company were all in Universal Music Company. Sun Hao was received in the lobby.

After a few pleasantries, Zhu Jianbin invited everyone to the company's conference room.

In the meeting room, Sun Hao and several others took their seats. At this time, the signing manager of the Human Resources Department of Universal Records first said: "On behalf of Universal Records, I would like to welcome Mr. Sun to XG, come to our Universal Records, I believe that Mr. Sun has thoroughly inspected our company, and I believe that if Mr. Sun can choose our company, he will get full packaging and publicity from our company, and he will be on the national and even world stage."

"Besides, our company's packaging and development of Mr. Sun will surpass other record companies' attention to Mr. Sun, because we are now focusing on developing young people, and young people are the masters of the future stage, so we think that we are sincerely looking forward to Mr. Sun's joining. Come to our record company." The signing manager of Universal Records said with a deep expression, hoping to impress the young boy in front of him with his words. At this moment, the signing manager seemed to be moved by his words Now, I thought to myself, why don’t I usually have this literary talent?
And Zhu Jianbin, who was next to the signing manager, despised the manager a little in his heart at this time. Who in the company didn't know that the signing manager of Universal Music was a pickpocket. , let alone this kind of singer who can bring huge benefits to the company, even Jacky Cheung, the song god, is probably bound by the contract firmly in the company.

Song Chunfeng next to Sun Hao doesn't understand this. Although he is a music major, he doesn't understand all the darkness in the entertainment industry. In Song Chunfeng, the 500 million that the agent of Jindian Company offered last time has already It's an astronomical figure, but everyone knows that this figure is not even a fraction in a big record company. At this time, Song Chunfeng's words about the signing manager brought him into infinite reverie.

"Thank you, manager. Then I would like to ask, what kind of signing method should we adopt?" There are quite a few, although he has not entered the big entertainment circle, but at least he has been in the entertainment area of ​​H city and the province for a few years, so Sun Hao knows that it is useless to talk about such packaging and publicity things. Yes, everyone knows what the entertainment industry is like, there are too many dark elements in it, and this kind of verbal promise is nothing, only what is in the contract is important.

"This...Xiao Zhu, go and show Mr. Sun's contract." The signing manager saw that Sun Hao was not moved by what he said, and was a little embarrassed. The idea was so simple as imagined before, it seems that it is impossible to make a fuss about the contract.

At this time, Zhu Jianbin took out the prepared contract from the drawer of the meeting room.

"Ah Hao, let's take a look. Do you have any objections?" Zhu Jianbin handed the contract to Sun Hao, and stood beside Sun Hao. At this moment, Zhu Jianbin also wanted to know that Universal Music Company gave the youngest signed singer in history. what kind of conditions.

Sun Hao took over the contract, took a glance at it, thought for a while, then raised his head and said to the signing manager of Universal Records.

"I think your company's signing contract should be changed."

"What? Do you think there is any problem with our contract?" After hearing Sun Hao's words, the signing manager and president assistant of Universal Records were very surprised. This contract for Sun Hao has been revised several times. For newcomers Said the treatment is already very good.I don't know what the boy in front of me is thinking.

Because as early as yesterday after being notified by Zhu Jianbin, the president of Universal Records learned about Sun Hao and Jacky Cheung's duet song and Ren Xianqi, and revised the contract that was originally prepared for Sun Hao.

The president of Universal Music Company believes that this treatment is very good, and it is completely acceptable to a newcomer like Sun Hao. It was embarrassing for the two of them to say that they disagreed after glancing at the contract. Before Universal Music, there were no singers who denied the contract, but those were all relatively popular singers, or after Jingjing signed the contract with Universal Music. The singer he was dating, not like Sun Hao, a young singer who just debuted.

"First of all, the first point is that the signing period is ten years. This is simply impossible, because I will go to college later, so it is impossible to sign for such a long time." Sun Hao explained when he saw the signing contract After signing for ten years, he immediately despised Universal Music.

Will a singer sign a ten-year contract with a record company?Certainly not, most singers sign a three-to-five-year contract at most, even the Emperor Company, which is more strict with newcomers, only signs an eight-year contract, and the contract in front of them actually has a ten-year contract period , this made Sun Hao very contemptuous of Universal Music Company's view of treating himself as a fool because he was young and didn't understand anything, so he wanted to sign a ten-year contract all at once. Sun Hao absolutely cannot agree to the request.

"Actually, what we want to sign for ten years is also a guarantee for singers. Don't you want to cooperate with our Universal Music Company for a long time?" At this time, after listening to Sun Hao's words, the signing manager of Universal It's a little too much, because ordinary singers are usually signed for three to five years, but for Sun Hao, a young singer, the signing manager thought that he just entered the music scene and didn't know anything. Consoling Sun Hao.

"That's impossible. It's impossible for me to sign with your company for such a long time. If your company is really sincere to sign with me, then change the contract to three years. If we cooperate happily, we can renew the contract." , if your company doesn’t agree to my proposal, there is nothing I can do, I’m sorry.” Want to sign a ten-year contract right away?This is obviously bullying Sun Hao who doesn't know anything about the entertainment industry. After ten years, he doesn't know what he has developed into. Thinking of this, Sun Hao resolutely rejected the other party's proposal.

After hearing Sun Hao's words, the signing manager asked Sun Hao and the others to wait a while and then went out to find the president, because this is not something he can decide on his own. If Sun Hao agrees to a ten-year contract, but is not satisfied with the salary and share , The signing manager can still decide by himself, but on the issue of the signing period, the signing manager still does not have the right to make this decision.

"What? He only signed for three years?" The president of Universal Music asked in surprise after hearing what the HR manager said.In fact, when he made the decision, he didn't think that the other party would disagree, but he estimated in his heart that even if the other party proposed to modify it, it would only be changed to eight or five years, but he never thought that the other party would propose a three-year contract. .

"Yes, the president, and it can be heard from his tone that if we don't sign a three-year contract with him, he won't sign with us." It can be heard from Hao's words that it is definitely not like bargaining in the market, but there is absolutely no room for negotiation.

In fact, generally speaking, it is impossible for a newcomer to have about three years before, because everyone knows that what a newcomer needs most at the beginning is time to accumulate popularity. If a record company signs a three-year contract with a singer, it means, This company can only provide packaging for the singer, and after the singer becomes famous, it is very difficult to renew the contract, that is to say, ordinary companies are unwilling to do such thankless things. How about giving a singer who has worked so hard to become a wedding dress to someone else?

"Is what you found out about the Coca-Cola Cup competition true?" After a moment of silence, the president of Universal Music asked the signing manager. If the news is true, it means that the singer's creative output is still good Guaranteed, then the company can still get optimistic income within three years.

"It's absolutely true. I have a friend over there, and he told me about it." The signing manager said after hearing what the president said.

"If this is the case, then promise him that he can sign for three years, but during this period, the royalties of the record will be changed to 50.00%, so that we will not lose money." After hearing the words of the signing manager, the president After thinking about it for a long time, he finally made a concession, but he changed the 70.00% royalties set for Sun Hao in advance to 50.00% for ordinary singers. Universal Music also had no choice but to package a newcomer. , if you don't earn some money from the royalties, although the company has strong financial resources, it can't do things that lose money.

After getting the news from the president, the signing manager told Sun Hao.

"No problem, fifty is fifty." After hearing the idea put forward by the signing manager, Sun Hao agreed with all his heart. Although he may lose some money temporarily, it is worthwhile to shorten the contract period. Sun Hao believes that even if it is Without the 20.00% royalties, there will be a lot of gains by relying on one's own strength.

"But I will add one more item to this contract." After agreeing to the other party's conditions, Sun Hao expressed his thoughts.
