684 cooperation failed

Recommended song: .line Li Zhunyi's straightforwardness made Stephanie White pause, and she didn't turn a corner, in fact, she reacted that Li Zhunyi wanted to go straight and get to the point, but she felt that it was a little surprising that such a crisp and neat personality appeared on Li Zhunyi.

Before this, although Lee Zhun-yi's news was flying all over the sky, as an insider in the entertainment industry, Stephanie White knew that the news always had to be watched with a skeptical attitude, so her perception of Lee Joon-yi has always stayed on the image of "handsome guy and idol". This is also the reason why Universal Music invited Lee Joon-yi before, because it is popular and topical, but it is also the reason why Universal Records ignores Lee Joon-yi's talent, because they still think that Lee Joon-yi is a vase, and talent is hype.

This time, Lee Joon-yi's "1" for Justin Bieber really moved Universal Records, and Stephanie White also admitted that Lee Joon-yi did have some little talent, but it was inevitable that he still had some superior thoughts. This can't be blamed on Stephanie White, what kind of company is Universal Music, one of the world's five major record companies, who is Lee Joon-yi, a newcomer who has only debuted in the United States for half a year -- no matter how good the results in Asia are, they have to start from scratch in the North American market; no matter how well the Asian album sells, everything has to start from scratch in the North American market.

But after just a few words of confrontation with Lee Zhun Yi, Stephanie White's opinion of Li Zhun Yi was a little more correct, but I didn't expect that the image of Li Zhun Yi and the rumors gradually coincided, does that mean that Li Zhun Yi's requirements for the album are not pretending to be high, but are genuine, and does that mean that Li Zhun Yi's talent is real.

Although Stephanie White's thoughts were chaotic, the pause was only about a second, and she made a little adjustment to her mentality, no matter what the outcome of today's conversation was, at least talk to Lee Joon-yi on an equal footing. As for whether or not to cooperate and whether to cooperate, that is a matter for discussion after going back today, after all, today is just an informal meeting.

"Mr. Yi's words are wrong, of course I came here to compliment Mr. Yi, if I didn't think that Mr. Yi really has this level, I guess I wouldn't represent Universal Music and contact you for the third time, didn't I?" Stephanie White is also a veteran, paused for a while, but his thoughts quickly picked up, and he didn't get disrupted by Li Zhun Yi, and cleverly picked up Li Zhun Yi's words.

This made Lee Joon-yi laugh, "Then I should thank Ms. White, I should be more confident to be recognized by Universal Music." Li Zhunyi is also not modest, and the smile on his face is more calm.

Fred Pyle sat next to Lee Joon-yi, leisurely picking up the fruit tea and filling all three glasses on the table. Every time I talk to Li Zhunyi, it is very easy, just because Li Zhunyi knows his strengths and weaknesses very well, knows what he wants, and knows what his bottom line is, to put it bluntly, "self-knowledge". Fred Pyle himself is the manager of Universal Records, so he knows very well that Universal Records has come to the door for the third time, and his posture is actually very high, if he is really sincere, he will definitely make an appointment in advance to make an appointment for a formal meeting, rather than letting Stephanie White come to inquire first. Although the change in Stephanie White's eyes just now was fleeting, Fred Pyle was very keenly aware of the difference between before and after, and it also confirmed his thoughts. So, Fred Pyle didn't have much hope that he would be able to negotiate a result this time.

While talking, Fred Pyle remembered that not long ago, Sony also visited him officially for the second time, and talked very sincerely about the release of an album for Lee Joon-yi, although the two sides had a big dispute over the conditions, but at least, Sony's sincerity and attitude are much better than those of Universal: the number of times does not determine everything. In addition to Sony, several small record companies, including Kojima Records, have also contacted Fred Pyle, and they are very sincere. It can be seen that Justin Bieber's popularity has not only benefited Justin Bieber himself, but also Lee Joon-yi's talent has gradually surfaced.

Not only that, Fred Pyle also made an appointment with Warner Records for an official meeting the day after tomorrow, and the world's five major record companies, Sony, Universal and Warner, all came to the door, which also made Fred Pyle full of confidence, although Lee Joon-yi is very strict about the conditions of the album, but he can always find a partner, aside from these top record companies, those small record companies are also good partners. So, now Fred Pyle is not in a hurry, not at all.

Stephanie White only talked to Li Zhunyi for a few words, and knew that when he negotiated with Li Zhunyi, he had time to beat around the bush and pull the strings, so it was better to go directly to the topic and engage in a tug-of-war on the matter. So as soon as she changed her words, she went straight to the point, "Our Universal Company has also approached Mr. Yi twice before, hoping to discuss the release of the album, but unfortunately we have not been able to reach an agreement in the end. Although Stephanie White was talking to the point, the tone was inevitably in a PR tone, and there was no way, professional habits. "Today, I want to learn about Mr. Yi's idea for his album and discuss whether it is in line with our company's planning direction. ”

Stephanie White said this beautifully, but in essence, it means the same thing, what do you think of Lee Joon-yi, what kind of album do you want to come up with, let's go around the world to see if it's acceptable, if you accept it, we'll talk about it formally, if you don't accept it, you have to disperse. Overall, Stephanie White still feels that Universal Music is willing to give Lee Joon-yi a chance to release an album, and it is still dominant, so there is still some feeling of being a superior in his words.

Both Li Zhunyi and Fred Pyle understood and exchanged glances with each other, and now Fred Pyle also knows Lee Joon-yi very well, and knows that this is basically impossible. Lee Joon-yi's requirement is to have the absolute right to speak and decide on his album, but Universal Music is still so high-profile, even if it really cooperates, there will definitely be many conflicts in the future, maybe when it comes to real decision-making, Universal Music will still deprive Lee Joon-yi of his decision-making ability. This is the instinct to grasp the initiative in the bones of big-name companies.

In fact, Fred Pyle still hopes that Lee Joon-yi will cooperate with Universal Music, after all, it is where he has worked for many years, and his connections are still there, so it is much easier to operate. But if Stephanie White represents Universal Music's attitude, then the chances of a partnership are slim to none.

Lee Joon-yi and Fred Pyle exchanged glances, and Lee Joon-yi quickly set his eyes on Stephanie White in front of him, showing a smile, "I actually have a lot of plans and ideas for the album, but it is estimated that it is difficult to enter the eyes of a company like Universal Music." ”

Regarding Li Zhunyi's words, Stephanie White remained silent, still looking listening. Lee Joon-yi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't mind, and then continued, "For example, I want to make a hiphop/r*b album, all of which I write and compose by myself." ”

This has just begun, Stephanie White's right eye jumped slightly, the /r※b market is currently very saturated, not to mention newcomers, even if it is a senior singer to fight a bloody way in this field, it is not an easy task, let alone Li Zhunyi, a "foreign population". Throughout the history of the U.S. music market over the past two decades, Asian singers have achieved good results that can be counted on one hand, and the best results have not broken into the top 50 of the 11brd chart, which shows that Asian singers are struggling in the U.S. music market.

Moreover, Lee Joon-yi also hopes to write and compose his own lyrics and music, not to mention Lee Joon-yi, even a top creator does not have the confidence to create an album by himself. Nowadays, it is normal for any singer's album to be the best of the best, and the ten songs on the album come from seven or eight different creators. Therefore, Li Zhunyi's words are "big words" in Stephanie White's opinion.

In fact, how could Lee Joon-yi not know this truth? He deliberately said so much, although his albums in Asia are now all done by himself, but in the United States, he still does not dare to open this Haikou. But today is different, Universal Music originally came with a superior attitude, even if it was a three-way house, but the sincerity was still not as sufficient as imagined, so Li Zhunyi didn't mind Lei Lei and them, boasting about Haikou.

If Stephanie White had a correct attitude towards Lee Joon-yi just now, but now Stephanie White has once again decided that this cooperation case needs to be postponed. Lee Joon-yi said before that in order to cooperate, he needs to have absolute control of the album, and today Stephanie White is here to talk about it to see how much Lee Joon-yi has control over the album. But now it seems that it is impossible for Universal to meet Li Zhunyi's requirements, and they still have their own bottom line.

Although the two sides don't talk much, they are both smart people, and between you and me, the matter has actually been decided. After that, Fred Pyle took over Lee Joon-yi's class and talked to Stephanie White, which is not what Lee Joon-yi is good at.

After dinner, Stephanie White took her leave, and it is unknown whether she would return to Los Angeles or stay at a hotel in Berkeley.

Fred Pyle and Lee Joon-yi walked side by side to the villa and only asked, "Is this not going to happen?"

Li Zhunyi nodded, "Yes." ”

The two of them didn't continue the topic anymore, Fred Pyle was on the scene just now, and it was clear that he and Lee Joon-yi's decision was actually the same, just to confirm it again. "I have a face-to-face meeting with Warner in two days. "Fred Pyle brought it up again.

Li Zhunyi didn't turn his head, just nodded and said, "I hope you can talk a little more." "The subtext is that you can talk about something that actually has content, rather than being boring and tentative like today. This made Fred Pyle chuckle as well.
