My singer girlfriend is super fierce
Chapter 745
In the end, the person sent by Sony Music to negotiate still did not get Ye Zhiqiu's promise and left with disappointment.
Kishimoto Yuya vaguely sensed Ye Zhiqiu's attitude, but he was still confused.
In terms of how to promote Asian singers, Sony is undoubtedly the record company with the most say in the world, so what is there to hesitate about.
However, this is exactly the reason why Ye Zhiqiu hesitated.
Sony is indeed very strong, but its base is in Japan, and its greatest influence is in Asia.
From the plan introduced by the other party, it can be heard that the other party hopes to release the record in Japan first after signing the contract, and then enter the US market after the fame is further improved...
At present, Ye Zhiqiu is very popular in many Asian countries, with a huge fan base, and it will basically not lose money to release a new record.
But in the United States, it is not certain. Although he has landed on the B chart several times, European and American audiences generally still belong to the state of "heard of but don't know who he is" for Ye Zhiqiu.
Moreover, it is very difficult for Asian singers to become popular in the European and American music scene.
The other party's intention was obvious. Let Ye Zhiqiu harvest the Asian market first, make money, and then consider the European and American affairs. Even if Sony fails, it will not lose money.
But Ye Zhiqiu did not have such an intention, so he decided to talk to the second company, Universal, before talking about it.
Universal is also one of the strongest international record companies at present. Strictly speaking, it is stronger than Sony.
Unlike Sony, which focuses on the Asian market, this company's main business scope is in the United States, so Ye Zhiqiu is still looking forward to this negotiation.
Shortly after Kishimoto left, accompanied by obvious footsteps, a warm voice came.
"Hi! Is it my turn?"
A white man who was obviously heavier than his height walked in from the door. When he saw Ye Zhiqiu, his eyes lit up and he said happily: "Ye, I finally meet you."
"Haha, let me introduce myself first, just call me Dave..."
This seemingly ordinary fat middle-aged man named Dave turned out to be the global vice president of Universal Music. He flew from the United States for this negotiation.
In terms of level, Dave should be much higher than Kishimoto just now.
Ye Zhiqiu didn't waste any words and directly repeated the question he had asked Kishimoto just now.
"Development plan"? Of course we have it, but..." Dave looked at Ye Zhiqiu and smiled: "I want to hear your own views on the future first."
Ye Zhiqiu directly told Dave the general plan in his mind. The more he listened, the more surprised he was. Finally, he sighed: "Ye, to be honest, your idea is very bold, and we haven't even thought of it."
"Before this, no Asian singer has ever reached the height you mentioned, but Universal likes singers with personality, and our direction is the same. Universal is happy to witness the birth of the first one, so sign with us!"
Dave became more and more excited as he spoke, and the flesh on his face seemed to tremble. Suddenly he remembered something and asked, "By the way, you just met Sony, right? Can you ask how much signing fee they offered?"
Before Ye Zhiqiu and Song Mei answered, Dave laughed and said, "Just kidding, I know this is a business secret."
"But I don't think the company controlled by the old man in Japan can be very generous..."
Muttering to his colleagues, Dave stretched out a finger and said confidently, "Universal's sincerity has always been sufficient."
"Fifteen million US dollars, this is our sincerity."
At this time, Song Mei and Ye Zhiqiu were both stunned.
Fifteen million US dollars, converted into RMB is...more than 100 million!
Compared to the 80 million offered by Sony, Universal is indeed generous...
Like Sony, Huahai Entertainment and Ye Zhiqiu did not give an immediate response.
Although they have already made up their minds, it is not a trivial matter after all. It is always right to compare more. In addition to these two companies, they will also meet with the two giants EMI and Warner before making a final decision.
......
In the next few days, Ye Zhiqiu returned to the state of concentrating on filming with the crew.
Time came again on Sunday, the day when the second episode of "Fog Mountain Five Elements" was broadcast.
The official broadcast time was in the evening, but in the afternoon of that day, the impatient fans had already warmed up on major forums.
"Finally I waited for you!"
"Do you know how I spent this week?"
"Please open an advance on-demand program. I can't pay for this money."
At 7 pm, the second episode of "Fog Mountain Five Elements" arrived as scheduled amid the fans' calls.
The name of this episode is called "Angry Beast Peacock".
The concept of "anger" is taken from the Buddhist concept of "greed"., anger, and ignorance".
In the plot, the battle scene between Huo Xing and Kong Que is still very exciting, and then a shocking secret is revealed in the plot.
The "omnipotent" magic medicine Juxian Pill mentioned by the villagers in the small mountain village in the first episode was actually made from the blood of the little Qilin.
It turned out that after the little Qilin ran out of the Juque shield, he was captured by the villagers to extract blood for medicine. When Huo Xing found out, the little Qilin was already dying.
Seeing this, I don't know how many netizens blurted out "Wow".
This wave of reversals really surprised many people, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems to be natural.
It can only be said that between pure "hot-blooded comics" and thoughtfulness, the producers chose the latter.
Qilin for To avoid chaos in the demon world, he sealed himself in the Juque Shield, but it was opened by the Fire Element; the villagers in the small mountain village have a warm side of caring for their relatives, but at the same time they are doing cruel things like imprisoning the little Qilin to make medicine.
These contradictions all show a truth that there is no absolute evil or good in the world, and also trigger the audience's discussion on human nature.
Compared with the simple "middle school", this part of the design also makes the whole animation plot fuller. After enjoying the extremely exciting fighting scenes, these are really unexpected surprises.
Therefore, after the second episode was broadcast, "Fog Mountain Five Elements" still maintained a high score of 9.9 on Penguin Video, and many viewers' dissatisfaction was mostly the same.
——It's too short!
Ye Zhiqiu, can you be longer?
