Chapter One of the Night

  Chapter 3 On Business

   "It's useless to say anything else. For the next two years, you should stay at your school. If you want to release a single and make an album in the next two years, it will definitely be out of the question."

  There are public phone booths everywhere in the school. It is a little troublesome to make calls. Either a magnetic card or a dial-up card is used. The number is huge and the process is super cumbersome, but it is cheaper.

   After finally dialing a long list of numbers, the phone finally got through. Guan Yulan didn't get angry, but when she heard the voice, she was obviously tired and depressed.

   "Uh... not so much?"

"No way? What are you doing, you don't know? That An Xiaojing belongs to another company, and he can't reach it, but you are in the same company as him! Okay, you want to dance Let's go, it's impossible, breaking the contract is three million yuan! You're not worth the money! If you want to sing, it's impossible! Get over it!"

She sighed, her voice getting deeper and more dejected, "Also, Jin Xiaoqing wanted to sing with him, but it's too bad. In the morning, Xiaoqing was so angry at me for a long time that he said it well, but now he is determined not to use it. Xiaoqing is gone, just because I am also her manager... alas!"

"Uh…"

   This Jin Xiaoqing, Xu Zhenghua knows, is also signed to the Oriental Star Records. He has already released an album, but it is said that he has almost passed the platinum line, even if it is a local Xiaohong.

   Being able to successfully sign the contract must have something to do with Guan Yulan's face, which is basically obtained by Jin Xiaoqing.

  So...Jin Xiaoqing's business is definitely more important than his own business.

   She will be so depressed, so depressed that she is no longer angry, the reason should be here.

   Of course, in business, this is understandable.

As far as the coffee position is concerned, Jin Xiaoqing is probably a C-level singer. It is not good to be called a third-rate singer. of.

   Zhang Yuan has to be considered a B-level singer. Considering that two consecutive albums have been double platinum, and he still seems to have a lot of stamina, he is even more confident than the average B-level singer.

Last night, I took Sister Guan's car to his house to attend the party, and I heard Sister Guan say that on his double platinum album, there are a total of four singles that he took out and released as a single disc, one of which even sold After passing the platinum line, the other three copies also exceeded 500,000 copies without exception, and obtained the gold disc certification.

   is very popular, maybe it is enough for B+ level!

  Because of her own trouble, Jin Xiaoqing was implicated and lost a great opportunity to cooperate with Zhang Yuan. It is normal for her to get angry.

   You have to admit that this matter is indeed a burden on others.

  Look for an opportunity, this is a sincere apology, and if there is a chance in the future, you can also make up for it.

   But, I can't wait now!

  Become famous as early as possible, and of course the first pot of gold should be as early as possible!

   "Then how long do I need to cook?"

   "Didn't you say it? At least two years? It depends on the situation!"

  I will go, this is too cruel, "Why? If Zhang Yuan's words are said, does the company take it so seriously? I..."

"He signed the contract at the beginning, and the contract was for three years and three majors. Now there is still the last major. The company definitely wants him to renew a new contract before he is released. After all, he has such a good momentum, how can he be willing to let him finish it? The last one, just pat the **** and go to another house? So now the entire Orient Star is from top to bottom, everyone has to hold him! I went to see Mr. Zhao this morning. Although he is your manager, he also There's nothing we can do, it's the company's decision! By the way, when it comes to Mr. Zhao... How about you, call Mr. Zhao later and ask him to scold him, he's also very passive when you come out. …”

All right!

  In business talk…

   "In other words, if Zhang Yuan is unwilling to renew his contract, I will be free as soon as his new album is ready and released, but once he renews the contract..."

"Yes, once he renews his contract... the album will still be made. You signed a three-year 1+1 album. The first album is a must have in the contract. If the company does not do it, it is a breach of contract. You will lose money. But for the record company, this is too simple! When the contract period is about to end, I will collect a few songs and ask you to record it. First, put together an EP, and I won't even send you a CD, just tapes, get three or five hundred boxes, and find a few stores to randomly display them. Even if the contract is fulfilled, the cost will be capped at tens of thousands of dollars Of all the record companies, there isn't one that's not good at this..."

All right!

  In Business Talk…In Business Talk…

   "Isn't it okay to apologize? I apologize publicly?"

"I'm back to my senses now? It's too late! Do you remember what you said to Zhang Yuan's agent last night? This time, Zhang Yuan just expressed his attitude, and more things are actually his My agent is pushing it. Now the company has held a meeting to discuss and decide, you… alas…”

   Finally hung up the phone helplessly, Xu Zhenghua stood on the spot with his hips on his hips.

   This Nima!

   is really a problem!

  A hero saving beauty really often means a huge price!

   I should have taken the opportunity to tease An Xiaojing just now. In business affairs, I have to recoup some of the cost!

   turned around, hey, they came out after eating.

  The moment he saw An Xiaojing, an idea suddenly popped into Xu Zhenghua's mind...

   "Lao Xu, what's wrong with you?"

   Guo Kun and An Xiaojing soon found themselves, and sure enough, they came over.

   The current situation is that Zhang Yuanzheng is red, so in order for him to stay and renew the contract, let alone a rookie like himself, even if he is a little singer with some achievements, he will be blocked if he bites his teeth and says to block it!

   Whoever can make the most money, there is no doubt!

   In other words, only by becoming more profitable and popular than Zhang Yuan, can he leverage the so-called blocking capital—to put it bluntly, for the record company, it has nothing to do with art or not, it is a business.

   To become popular and to make money, the best way is of course to release an album and sell it.

   It is best to directly crush Zhang Yuan.

   And he has been banned!

  If you don’t unblock it, you can’t release an album…

  A dead end?

   Not necessarily.

Although Xu Zhenghua was a 100% layman, the original owner had already signed a contract before. In the past six months, whether he heard it from his manager or went to see him at a record company, he was very concerned about the operation rules of the record company, especially him. I still know a lot about the contract I signed.

  It is true that his contract was signed with the Oriental Star, but An Xiaojing is not! Zhang Yuan could push Dongfang Star to ban him, but he definitely couldn't ban An Xiaojing!

   And the original contract signed by the original owner was a singer contract, and it did not involve creation!

   "Oh, it's alright, just made a call!"

   Xu Zhenghua greeted her with a smile and looked at An Xiaojing.

   So beautiful!

   This face, this complexion, revealed a radiance of ice muscle and jade bones.

   I really don't know how much more moving she will be when she gets used to it.

  Guo Kun's social skills seem to be pretty good. After a meal, he actually got to know An Xiaojing's female classmate quite well.

   "Xiaojing, I forgot to ask you just now..."

   This time, he opened his mouth and simply omitted the family name, which seemed very intimate, "You seem to have signed with your company last year, don't you? When are you going to post?"

  An Xiaojing is still that quiet and quiet look. It seems that it is not only difficult to see a smile on her face, but also to see some surprised expressions.

   In short, no matter what situation she encounters, she always looks peaceful.

   "Me? The album is still early, so I have to release a single disc first to see how the market reacts!"

She raised her hand and licked the short lock of hair beside her cheek, "your manager should have told you, right? Record companies are all like this, newcomers like us usually cast a wide net! Our company is giving I choose a song, and plan to make a single to test the water first. If the result is good, I will release the special. If the result is average, I will release another song and continue to try. If the result is poor... My agent said, it may be suppressed. Wait until the contract is about to end, let’s make it simple, and the contract is over!”

   Sure enough.

   So speaking of this, every singer who can become popular, whether male or female, is a bit of a real talent, and it is the result of market selection.

   is really not that easy.

   "Yeah, my agent told me this too..."

   actually just finished saying, "By the way, anyway, I can't issue a single or a special for a while, because it's blocked internally! Otherwise, I'll be idle if I'm idle, so I can write a song for you?"

"Uh…"

   It's not easy, she actually saw a small expression of consternation on her face, "You can... write songs?"

  Xu Zhenghua's face was full of confidence, and was about to speak when suddenly, a super inappropriate voice rang from behind An Xiaojing, just say it, he also laughed first, full of sarcasm—

   "Huh? What a joke, classmate Xu, do you think writing songs is that easy?"
