"Oh woman, perfume woman ..."
In the interview room, Su Yue looked at his buddy with a pained expression.
Long hair shawl, unshaven, sing with affectionately closed his eyes, "Oh, woman, poisonous woman ..."
He listened politely to the entire song and coughed twice, saying: "Uh, yes. We already know your situation, go back and wait for the announcement."
"Then have I ever had it?" The buddy has a dish, it is estimated that he hasn't had a full meal in a few days.
"We need to study, you go back first."
"No, if you don't think it's okay, I'll sing another song ... Hey, I'm a singer-songwriter! If you buy it first, don't you value creation, ten thousand dollars! Ten thousand dollars!
Su Yue also wanted to explain that Xu Fei directly let the security guards go out and said, "Don't waste time, the next one!"
"Ok!"
The little assistant went out and went to the reception room.
There were already eight people sitting inside, all carrying guitars, five long hairs, and two bald heads. After waiting for a long time, I was a little nervous. One of them was holding a cup and drinking water.
"Zheng Yun!"
"Have!"
He put down the teacup, got up and followed, and came to a room. Quite a relaxed environment, a few sofa cases, the two sitting opposite.
Su Yue looked at him a few times, long hair, not tall, very handsome, first asked: "Zheng Jun, right, a little impression. I heard that Guo Chuanlin wants to sign you, how come here?"
Guo Chuanlin, formerly a guitar player of the Black Panther band, later served as an agent, known as the fourth brother in the circle.
In 1987, the Ding Wuzang people formed the Black Panther. The following year, Ding Wu left and organized Tang Dynasty, Dou Xian'er joined as the lead singer.
Last year, Black Panther was fancy by Hong Konger Chen Jiantian and joined Jinshi Records. At the end of the same year, Dou Xian'er left to form a dream band.
The music scene is such a big place, Zheng Yun is not surprised, saying: "Mr. Su, not the fourth brother to sign me, he introduced a Hong Kong boss, said to open a company in Beijing, let me come."
"Hong Kong boss?"
"Uh, that is Chen Jiantian."
Chen Jiantian has some fame in the Hong Kong music scene and has brought Wang Jingwen and BEYOND. But as BEYOND went to Japan to develop, the two sides broke up, and the goods wanted to go north.
Earlier this year, Zheng Yun was preparing to go abroad. As a result, Guo Chuanlin made a phone call and said that Chen Jiantian opened a company in Beijing and wanted to sign you.
He was so excited that he immediately headed north, and when he arrived, he knew that the company was still awesome! So he and his girlfriend floated for a few months and his life was hard.
"We haven't signed the contract now, so we want to come and try."
Su Yue understood and said, "It's good not to sign a contract. Do you have any works?"
"Yes! Yes!"
Zheng Yun took out the guitar and held it in his arms, "The song he wrote was called" Naked "."
He tuned the strings, popped a few notes, and advocated: "She seems to be cold, she can't figure out your direction. In fact, she is lonely in her heart ..."
"My love is naked, my love is naked, you make me involuntarily mad ..."
Ouch!
A comparison with the perfume woman in front is a natural sound. Su Yue is already certain, after a song, asked: "Is there anything else?"
"" Back to Lhasa "."
"Snow mountain grass, beautiful Lama temple, endless girl, she smiles endlessly ..."
Limited by the environment, Zheng Yun suppressed the volume, but could still feel the power inside.
After two songs, he looked at Su Yue with embarrassment, but Su Yue looked at another guy. He didn't know, so he followed his gaze.
Teacher Xu smiled and said, "Are you confident to organize an album?"
"what?"
"A album, all the lyrics are composed by you, are you confident?"
"I ... have!"
Zheng Yun reacted, unable to control the ecstasy.
"Okay, let's study the contract. We usually sign for six years. The company promises to send you three albums with a profit of three or seven points. But your own creation involves royalties ..."
Xu Fei thought for a while and said, "It is the sole agent of the company to use these songs at its sole discretion. Finally, if you calculate the total profit, you can take 5%."
"For example, a cassette tape earns five dollars, can I divide it into two cents?"
"Correct."
This year, the company is absolutely strong, and the artists are like rotten cabbage. Zheng Yun felt the sincerity and said without hesitation: "Okay, I sign!"
I was embarrassed at the end, "Uh, this ..."
"My surname is Xu."
"Mr. Xu, can I advance a little money, I need it now."
"can."
Xu Fei called an employee and said, "Take him to Wang Jinghua."
"Ok."
Zheng Yun ignorantly left, and the interview continued.
The following was terrible, after watching six or seven in a row, the two were torn. Near noon, finally reached the last one.
I saw a skinny little man walked in, wearing glasses, restrained salute, "two good, my, my name is Li Chunbo, musician of the Haizheng Cultural Troupe."
Su Yue glanced at the image and ran into it, asking: "Looking at your information, I have more experience and have been in the cultural troupe?"
"Well, I worked for six years and wrote some songs during that time, but no one liked it."
"Can you sing a paragraph?"
"Yes, yes. It's just not mature enough to make you laugh."
Li Chunbo supported his glasses and sang: "There is a girl in the village named Xiaofang who looks good and kind ..."
Su Yue frowned, what is it?
Xu Fei was very interested. After the other party finished singing, he smiled and said: "This song is very simple. Tell me about your creative inspiration?"
"Uh, there's actually no inspiration. This song was written intermittently for a long time. It was the first girl I liked ... and then changed it, and it became like this."
"How do you feel?" He asked Su Yue again.
Lao Su has always been a bold and arrogant school. He didn't look at the soft songs. When "The Bending Moon" came out, he said that it was like a children's song, and then he was beaten.
But after studying abroad in Japan, my thoughts changed, and it seemed okay to listen to the whole story.
"The lyrics are targeted and the tune is catchy, which is quite suitable for groups such as the educated youth and has a certain degree of singing."
"Then sign it?"
"I do not mind."
Old Su's attitude may or may not be signed. Teacher Xu of course signed! This is "Xiao Fang"!
In reality, Li Chunbo went south to the deep city because he had nowhere to go in Beijing. The result was unearthed and became a hit.
Right now, he also left ignorantly. Xu Fei stretched his waist and satisfiedly said: "There is nothing in vain today, it is very rewarding."
"Well, Zheng Yun alone is enough. Your million dollar song, I think it will fall on him."
"Do you think" Naked "is a million dollar song?"
"How?" Su Yue was surprised.
"Hah, it's okay."
…………
That night, the dormitory building.
Taking into account Zheng Jun's special circumstances, Wang Jinghua arranged the residence before the contract was signed. There is no luggage, all a big bag is owned.
Choose the fifth floor A.
Wang Jinghua borrowed a bed bedding from downstairs and said: "You make up first. You have time to buy a set tomorrow. Don't forget to return this."
"I have slept, and other girls can't ask for it. I'll make a new set for others."
"Yo, quite a man. Come and let me say a few words to you."
She called Zheng Jun to her and said: "Now there are few people, your girlfriend can stay temporarily. Later when there are more people, you may be assigned a roommate, and then you will coordinate by yourself."
"Understand, thank you sister Hua!"
"You are in a special situation and the company has specially approved a subsidy."
She took out two thousand dollars and found another three hundred. "The two thousand are to be paid back. These three hundred are regular subsidies, which are available every month."
"..."
Zheng Yun took the money and recalled the hard life of the past few months, more grateful to Xinghe.
Before Wang Jinghua was sent away, he and his girlfriend looked at the house and looked at two thousand three hundred dollars, and wept for a moment.
...
If there is no teacher Xu, he will stay until the end of the year, until Chen Jiantian rents two hotel rooms and establishes a company-the famous red star production society.
We recall the past and always like to beautify the story, but in fact it is so.
In Chen Jiantian's narration, Red Star invited many musicians and producers for Zheng Yun's album, which took three months to complete.
After Zheng Yun became red, he switched to PolyGold during the contract period, and Red Star had to fight the lawsuit.
But from the perspective here, Red Star was two people, one Chen Jiantian and one Zheng Yun. From writing songs and arranging songs to finding recording studios, renting guitarists, and publicizing, he is running himself.
And all the royalties and performance costs added up to 30,000.
Zheng Yun accused the other party of breaching the contract and litigating the case. The last penny was not needed and he went out. It also triggered a large wave of cancellations. At that time, the artist system, management, industry standards, etc. were not perfect.
So, conscience capitalists are conscience capitalists.
