Chapter 400: Into the Money Hole (3/4)

What Niu Meiling wants to talk to Murphy about, what else can she do besides renewing the contract?

Now, Mo Xiaojuan watched Niu Meiling greeting Murphy, asking about the work after the Spring Festival, and also asking her about the process of preparing for the concert, but she was silently betting with herself in her heart: "When will you mention the renewal of the contract?"

Murphy was very serious about the concert arrangement with Niu Meiling, and she put forward her own suggestions: "Sister Ling, should we add one or more concerts? For example, Jiangcheng, when the signing event was held in Jiangcheng last month, the fans were still very enthusiastic, and Tianfu in Sichuan Province, if the concerts were only held in Beijing, Modu, and Yangcheng, it would be a little unfair to fans in other cities!"

Niu Meiling was a little embarrassed, but she was so old-fashioned that she didn't let Murphy see it, she smiled, and said haha: "It's okay, there will always be a chance to see the concert, when you finish these three concerts, we will hold three more concerts in the next season, and fans in other cities can also come to Beijing, Magic City, Yangcheng to see, and by the way, you can also travel to international metropolises!"

Don't think that Niu Meiling doesn't want to make money, she wants to make money too much!

The concert market in many cities is controlled by some professional concert planning companies, except for some powerful record companies and brokerage companies that can bypass them, other small companies must cooperate with them if they want to book concert venues in these cities!

In this way, the benefits that TiMi can obtain are greatly reduced, not to mention that most of the income has to be distributed to Murphy because of the top contract, and the attendance rate in these cities is relatively low, and the number of tickets sold and ticket prices are often not as good as those in Beijing, Magic City and Yangcheng, so holding concerts in these cities and holding three TiMi may not earn more money than holding one concert in Magic City!

In this way, Niu Meiling is of course more willing to hold a few more concerts in Beijing, Modu and Yangcheng.

Murphy's thoughts were much simpler, she frowned, and said, "But, Sister Ling, going to a concert in another city is also a big extra expense for them!"

"Then you don't need to watch the concert for the time being! Which cities do you intend to? I can arrange a few more commercial performances for you, that is, you can meet the fans, and you can also let them listen to you sing, isn't this the same effect?" Niu Meiling smiled and said unhurriedly.

No matter how good the commercial performance is, those brands will not only pay for inviting Murphy, they will also give the agency an extra red envelope, and more importantly, she Niu Meiling can also earn favors in the middle.

"How can a commercial performance be compared to a concert?" Murphy still felt that it was inappropriate, she actually hated the show-like activity of commercial performance.

However, Mo Xiaojuan pulled Murphy at this time and signaled her not to continue arguing with Niu Meiling.

At this time, Niu Meiling had the opportunity to say her true purpose today: "Murphy, last year, we talked about renewing the contract, but you and Xiaojuan said, let's wait for the album to come out and then talk, Sister Ling also promised you, now, your album is out, and you have also obtained good results, Sister Ling is also happy for you, it's just that your contract with Tianmei is less than four months left, should we also talk about this renewal issue?"

Murphy was stunned, she actually didn't want to think about renewing her contract at all now, but she wasn't ready for a showdown with Niu Meiling. Now that Sister Ling suddenly brought it up, how should she answer?

Murphy's heart was so confused that she didn't know how to speak for a while, but fortunately, Mo Xiaojuan was afraid that she would say it directly, so she hurriedly said to Sister Ling: "Sister Ling, now that Sister Fei has obtained such results, do you still want Sister Fei to sign an ordinary contract?"

Of course, Niu Meiling wanted Murphy to sign an ordinary contract, but now that the situation is stronger than people, she will not be brainless enough to make such an impossible request.

I saw her smile, took out a contract from the table, and said: "Of course not, I have always attached great importance to an excellent singer like Murphy, although we are still facing a relatively big dilemma now, but no matter how hard it is, we can't wronged Murphy." ”

"Top contract, we still have to sign a top contract with Murphy!" Niu Meiling handed over the contract and said with a smile, "However, after all, after so many years, this market has also changed a lot, and some of the terms of our top contract have also changed a little." ”

Sure enough, Niu Meiling still didn't give up, even if she still signed the top contract, she still wanted to deduct some and squeeze out more profit margins.

Mo Xiaojuan took the contract, opened it, and saw the changes in the profit sharing ratio subdivided into various types of activities, and she glanced at Niu Meiling with some deep meaning.

"Sister Ling, if you want to say that you just change the liquidated damages, then I won't say anything, but this income share, I take a cursory look, it seems that the company's proportion has been increased a bit!" Mo Xiaojuan said to Niu Meiling with a smile.

Murphy frowned, she turned her head, and in Mo Xiaojuan's ear, she lowered her voice and said, "Why are you still talking to Sister Ling about this, aren't you not considering renewing the contract?"

Mo Xiaojuan still smiled, she pretended to talk to Murphy about the contract, but in fact, she just said one word to Murphy: "Drag!"

Niu Meiling waited for them to finish discussing before she explained gently, and she still prepared a lot of rhetoric, such as taking Ye Qing (the first-line male singer who sang "Firework of the Heart" and competed with Murphy's "Across the Sea to See You" last year) signed with Xinghuo Media as a case to illustrate the need for her to improve the company's profit sharing.

She said a lot of things freely, and she burst into tears, as if Tianmei almost couldn't open it, but Murphy had already seen through her, isn't this still playing the emotional card?

Murphy was silent, but Mo Xiaojuan coped with it easily, she said with a smile: "Sister Ling, I also understand your difficulties, but after all, renewing the contract is also a big deal, and there are many treaties on it, we have to talk about it." It's not a good opportunity now, because Sister Fei is going to the capital for the first concert in a few days. ”

"Or, how about you see this, let's take this contract back first, what details need to be worked out, and later, we will continue to talk?" Mo Xiaojuan used honorifics and discussed with Niu Meiling very respectfully.

Niu Meiling still smiled gently: "Of course, the renewal of the contract is not something that can be negotiated in a while, I understand." As long as Murphy and Xiaojuan don't have any big opinions on your side, we can talk slowly, isn't there still four months?"

Murphy and Mo Xiaojuan left, and Niu Meiling, who was still pleasant just now, finally restrained her smile, her face was a little gloomy, obviously a little dissatisfied with the attitude that Murphy and Mo Xiaojuan had just handled.

Moreover, Niu Meiling also frowned, secretly feeling that something was wrong in her heart, she always felt that Murphy's emotions were a little wrong, different from the positive attitude before, and today she seemed a little reluctant.

Could it be that she has a different heart? Niu Meiling was suspicious.

And Murphy and Mo Xiaojuan, who left her office, were also communicating.

"Xiaojuan, why did you talk to Sister Ling about the contract again today? Didn't you say okay, let's not renew the contract with Sister Ling?" asked Murphy puzzled.

Mo Xiaojuan said helplessly: "Then we have to wait until the final showdown, we can't just fall out with Tianmei now, there are still four months, Sister Ling doesn't know what kind of things she will do!

Murphy was silent, she felt that something was wrong in her heart, and Mo Xiaojuan dragged it like this, which made her feel a little uneasy, but her head was a little messy for the time being, and she didn't know what to do.

"Sister, there is another question, you don't have to argue with Sister Ling about the concert just now!" Mo Xiaojuan suddenly remembered, she pursed her lips and said to Murphy, "You also know that Sister Ling is running for money, holding a concert in Jiangcheng, she can't make much money, even if you say that the fans are pitiful, she won't be moved!"

Murphy was depressed when she heard this, and she sighed and said, "I know, but I think those fans are not easy." I also ran so far to see a concert. ”

"Anyway, when you and your brother-in-law's studio come to the future, you can earn money as much as you want, spend money whenever you want, and be free, and at that time, you can also hold a few more concerts for fans in other cities as compensation. Mo Xiaojuan comforted.

"That's what you said, there's only four months left!" Murphy laughed, nodding happily.
