Chapter XXVI: Bargaining
In the VIP reception room of Star Entertainment Media, a man in formal clothes with his hair deliberately sprayed with gel sat at the table, sipping tea.
Raising his left arm, he glanced at the watch on his wrist: "How long will Mr. Wang Jingxuan arrive?"
Ma Chang on the side heard it, scolded Wang Jingxuan in his heart, and then replied with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, wait a minute, he may be stuck in traffic jams on the road, you also know, in this part of Kyoto, traffic jams are common!"
found a reason that he thought was more reliable to prevaricate, and then immediately got up and flattered: "Mr. Zhou, I see that the tea is cold, why don't I make you a cup anymore!"
Mr. Zhou: "No need!"
Since the other party said no, Ma Chang didn't have nothing to do, sat back in his seat peacefully, and continued to scold Wang Jingxuan in his heart.
Previously, Ma Chang had already talked with Mr. Zhou.
Mr. Zhou was quite easy to get along with, and he was a little cold, but he didn't refuse people, so Ma Chang had the courage to ask about Penguin Music's opinion on "Rice Fragrance".
As he spoke, Mr. Zhou deliberately revealed a point, saying that Penguin Music wanted to talk about the exclusive copyright of "Daoxiang".
As soon as Ma Chang heard this, he instantly came to the spirit, exclusive, what does it mean? money!
Since it is exclusive, it means that this song can only be listened to in his penguin music, so he will definitely be unwilling if the price of his penguin music is too low.
Even if he is a penguin, he will not agree.
However, Mr. Zhou also said that the specific price will have to be discussed with the copyright owner in detail.
Isn't the copyright owner Wang Jingxuan, the company was afraid that Wang Jingxuan would not be willing to record the song, but also to please Wang Jingxuan, so when drafting the subsidiary contract, it did not write the article "The copyright of "Daoxiang" will belong to Star Entertainment Media in how many years" was written.
Ma Chang is like sitting on pins and needles here, he has finished asking and saying everything, and there is nothing to talk about.
I was thinking about whether I should find any reason to go out to breathe, such as going to the toilet and helping Mr. Zhou get pastries or something.
At this time, the door of the reception room was suddenly pushed open, and a smiling and energetic young man walked in, wearing a suit and leather shoes.
Ma Chang rarely saw Wang Jingxuan dressed so formally, and his eyes were also bright, and he didn't remember when Wang Jingxuan wore a suit and tie last time.
"Jing Xuan, it's finally here, there's a lot of traffic on the road!"
Hearing Ma Chang say this, Wang Jingxuan didn't react for a while, and was stunned, but immediately came back to his senses: "Yes, it's a bit blocked!"
When Mr. Zhou saw that Wang Jingxuan was coming, he hurriedly got up and stretched out his right hand: "Mr. Wang has been looking up for a long time, I am more handsome than in the video!"
Wang Jingxuan smiled and stretched out his hand to shake it back: "See laugh, see laugh! It's too late for the traffic jam!"
Ma Chang on the side exhaled a long breath, fortunately he didn't pierce himself, otherwise he would lose face!
Mr. Zhou didn't say anything, and smiled politely: "It's not in the way, anyway, I don't have anything to do, so I should relax!"
Ma Chang felt uncomfortable in his heart, good guy, you are relaxed, what about me, I have been nervous until now.
But he just dared to think about it in his heart, and the smile on his face was bright: "Since Jing Xuan is here, the two of you will sit down and talk slowly!"
After speaking, he gave up his position to Wang Jingxuan, and he moved to the side.
As soon as he sat down, Wang Jingxuan spoke: "I don't know, what to call it!"
"My surname is Zhou!"
"Mr. Zhou, I believe you should also understand the current situation of the song "Daoxiang", and you should be the first to catch fire!"
Mr. Zhou did not deny it, and nodded pertinently: "Indeed!"
Wang Jingxuan is not set: "If this song is released in Penguin Music, I believe it can break the sales record of Penguin in recent years!"
Hearing Wang Jingxuan's arrogant words, the smile on Mr. Zhou's face froze, and then the smile became even better: "I didn't expect Mr. Wang Jingxuan to be so confident in his works!"
Wang Jingxuan thought to himself: It's not that I'm confident in my work, but I'm confident in Dong Chou.
At this time, Ma Chang's face changed, for fear that Wang Jingxuan would say the wrong thing again, how could anyone be so immodest, even if he really thought so in his heart, he shouldn't say it.
So he gently turned Wang Jingxuan with his elbow and signaled him to pay more attention to his words.
Who knew that Wang Jingxuan took his arm away and completely ignored Ma Chang: "I'm just stating a fact." ”
"Oh?"
Mr. Zhou did not show a mocking expression, but listened with great interest.
Ma Chang couldn't wait to drag Wang Jingxuan out and slap him a few times right now to sober him up.
Wang Jingxuan continued to laugh and said: "Just the number of plays of the piano piece of "Daoxiang" on Langyin and the preview of the official website of the Copyright Society can explain everything very well. ”
Ma Chang does not deny what he said, and the data in these two places are indeed terrifying, but he still thinks that it is a bit too exaggerated to break the sales record of Penguin Music in recent years.
Mr. Zhou also believes: "The data in these two places is really good, and it is precisely because of this that we at Penguin Music want to be exclusive." ”
Wang Jingxuan was also shocked when he heard the exclusivity, but his surprise was not shown on his face at all: "Is it exclusive?
Mr. Zhou didn't expect Wang Jingxuan to be so direct, but he liked such a direct person: "800,000! This is just a guarantee, and the profits generated in the later period will be divided separately." ”
Hearing this number, Ma Chang's hand shook and he almost didn't agree directly.
You must know that this is Wang Jingxuan's first solo song, and he used to sing with miracle letters.
And none of the songs that the miracles believed were on fire.
Which music player other singers work with depends on historical results.
Wang Jingxuan is equivalent to a person with no historical achievements at all, and it is already very face-saving for penguins to buy out his songs, and he actually opened a guaranteed figure of 800,000, which shows that he is really optimistic about the song "Daoxiang".
Some of the more popular first-line idol singers, a mini album, only have a few million offers, and Wang Jingxuan can't even rank eighteenth.
Ma Chang thought that Wang Jingxuan would agree directly, but what he didn't think about was ......
Wang Jingxuan smiled slightly: "I've always heard that Penguin Music has a lot of money and is the leader of music software, but I didn't expect it to be so stingy!"
Ma Chang took a bite of old blood directly, what the hell is wrong with this guy? If you don't agree, forget it, why are you still ridiculed?
He felt that he was about to stop knowing Wang Jingxuan, which was the same as the Wang Jingxuan he had known in the past!
Mr. Zhou wasn't angry, but he just thought that this kid was a little interesting, and said playfully: "Then how much does Mr. Wang Jingxuan think is reasonable?"
Ma Chang was afraid that Wang Jingxuan would mess up, so slowly, with unnoticeable movements, leaned towards Wang Jingxuan's side, carefully pulled the hem of Wang Jingxuan's suit a few times, and said in an extremely subtle voice: "Promise him, just 800,000, promise to sign!"
The voice came from gritting his teeth, and his lips barely moved.
Wang Jingxuan still regards him as air: "3.5 million...... The extra part of the profit is five or five open. ”
