Bao Jianfeng was contacting the group of people in his fantasy literature club, and Henry instructed programmers to develop Chinese stations according to their own requirements, and at the same time, he also asked people to dig up authors and sign well-known writers. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info while Chen Tianqiao went to South Korea to negotiate business with Actoz, the game development company of "Legend". With Henry's financial support, it is better to acquire the other party directly than to represent the game. In the case of agents, 10%-30% of the game's profits will be distributed to Actoz, which feels like making a wedding dress for them.

The investors behind Actoz are Korea Communications, Samsung C&T, National Ventures, and Milestone Ventures, with a market value of about $40 million. Of course, Shanda's current assets cannot be acquired. However, Chen Tianqiao acquired Actoz on behalf of the parent company ICQ!

The previous Actoz company was acquired by Shanda in 2004, and now it is only three years ahead of schedule.

Actoz's "Legend" was a devastating blow in South Korea, causing strong dissatisfaction among investors. Therefore, Chen Tianqiao came to talk about the acquisition, and the two sides soon began formal negotiations.

At this time, IMDB China broker company came to the news that Fan Bingbing was officially poached from Huayi Brothers. Because Fan Bingbing is not very famous, the other party agreed to release him in order to befriend Henry.

"Mr. Williams, Fan Bingbing is filming in Hengdian, how will you arrange her in the future?"

"Let her shoot some TV series first, and then turn to the big screen in two years!" Henry paused and asked, "What is the situation between Zhao Wei and Ruby Lin now?"

"Zhao Wei said that there is no need for an agent company, and it is useless for us to persuade us many times!, and Lin Xinru is on the other side, the company behind it refuses to let go, and she herself is quite willing to come to our company!!"

"In that case, then pay liquidated damages to dig up Ruby Lin, and at the same time, list the company as an unpopular company on IMDB!"

"Yes!"

"As for Zhao Wei, I really don't want to, we don't have to be strong, the road is chosen by ourselves after all!"

"Yes!"

Henry paused and said, "Oh, yes. I recently heard a song and thought it was very good, the song was called "Xingqing", and the singer seemed to be called Jay Chou......"

"Oh yes, this is a newly debuted Taiwanese singer, a creative genius, "Xingqing" is one of the title songs in his first solo album "Jay" released in November 2000, and he is responsible for all the songs in the album Composition, harmony writing and production supervision!"

"Oh, what a genius...... It seems that this Jay Chou is a rising superstar in the Chinese music scene!! "Henry said, "In this way, IMDB China Agent Company changed its name to Williams Agent Company, in addition to signing film and television actors, but also signing singers, and sent someone to Taiwan to sign Jay Chou." And I'm going to have someone form Williams Records here!"

"Okay. ”

Henry has long planned to integrate the many artists signed by his company around the world into Williams Agency to form a scale! In this way, it is not only convenient to manage, but also has a specialization in the art industry, and the most professional agent team to create these artists!

And Williams Records is dedicated to Williams' agency company, whether it is a singer or a movie star, you can release songs for them!

In addition, signing with a brokerage company and signing with a record company are actually different. The agency is responsible for all the work arrangements of the artist, and if the record company is signed, it means that the artist's songs can only be distributed by Williams Records, including online songs and offline physical records and other music-related things......

The agency is not overlord, and the wishes of the artist will definitely be considered, but the decision is still made by the agency company. Of course, there is no doubt that well-known superstars have a big say in the brokerage company, and the company sometimes has to accommodate them......

IMDB China Broker changed its name to Williams Brokers, and when you look at the name, you will know what the background is. Artists are definitely willing to join this company in order to be famous!

……

A week later, Taiwan, Alpha Records.

"Hello, Mr. Jay Chou!"

"Hello, may I ask who you are ......?" Jay Chou picked up the phone and said suspiciously, looking at the number, it was an unfamiliar phone and I didn't know it.

"I'm from Williams' agency, and my name is Tan Junyuan. Mr. Zhou, do you have time, let's make an appointment to talk!"

"Williams' agent? Is it related to Henry Williams, the richest man in the world?"

"Yes, that's the company Henry Williams built in the first place. The name Williams has been registered as a patent by Mr. Williams and cannot be used by other companies without authorization!"

Jay Chou smacked his tongue, and his name can also be registered as a patent, which is okay?!! he thought about it and replied: "Okay, I get off work at 5 o'clock, where are you?"

"I'm staying in a hotel not far from your company," Tan Junyuan paused and said, "There's a café called 'Blue Phoenix' near here, do you know this place?"

"Yes, I'll see you after work!"

"Okay!"

Time passed little by little, dusk was approaching, and Jay Chou came to the café agreed by both parties after work. As soon as he walked in, he saw a middle-aged man in a suit standing up, smiling and waving at him.

That's it......

Jay Chou walked over, "Hello!"

"Hello, please be seated, Mr. Zhou. ”

Tan Junyuan smiled and introduced himself, "I'm the president of Williams Agents Asia - Tan Junyuan!" As he spoke, he handed a business card to Jay Chou.

Jay Chou took it and glanced at it, the business card had the company's name, telephone, fax, email, and then Tan Junyuan's own phone number and name.

"Mr. Tan Junyuan, did you ask me to come to sign a contract with me?" Jay Chou said straight to the point.

"Yes, that's right, Mr. Zhou, what do you think? You must also know that signing a contract with Williams' agency is equivalent to having Henry Williams as a big backer, and this is very important for an artist!" Tan Junyuan smiled confidently.

Jay Chou shook his head and said, "Yes, I know that...... However, without Brother Wu Zongxian, there would be no me today. Wouldn't it be too ungrateful for you to let me leave him now?!So, I'm sorry, Mr. Tan, I can't sign with Williams' Agency......"

"Mr. Zhou, the water flows to the lower places, and the people climb to the higher places. Mr. Henry Williams is very optimistic about you, and named me, let me personally come to Taiwan to invite you to join Williams's agency!" Tan Junyuan paused when he said this, and Jay Chou, who heard this, suddenly showed a look of shock on his face.

"Mr. Jay Chou, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you must seize it. If you miss it, you'll regret it later!"

Jay Chou suddenly frowned and fell silent.

Jay Chou naturally wants to be famous, and if there is Henry Williams' cultivation, he will definitely be popular all over Asia and even the world. However, if he abandons Wu Zongxian now, Jay Chou can't get over it in his heart, as if his conscience is condemned...... For a while, it was very entangled!

After half a ring, Jay Chou gritted his teeth and said with a firm gaze: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Tan, my choice is still refusal!"

"Mr. Zhou, don't you think about it much?!"

"Don't think about it!" Jay Chou said categorically. Immediately, he got up from his chair, "Farewell, Mr. Tan!" After speaking, Jay Chou left the café, but the coffee on the table was not even drunk......

Tan Junyuan frowned slightly, he thought that things would be easy to handle, but he didn't want to meet such a stubborn person. He thought about it for a moment and gave Henry a call.

"Mr. Williams, I talked to Jay Chou, but he is not willing to sign with our company!"

"What the hell is going on?"

"Wu Zongxian has the grace of knowing him, so he is unwilling to abandon Wu Zongxian!"

"Is Jay Chou an artist under Wu Zongxian's company?"

"Yes! Wu Zongxian's company is called Alpha Records!"

"Okay! Since Jay Chou can't dig it up, then buy Alpha Records!!!"

Henry's eyes flashed with a gleam, the company belongs to me, and Jay Chou is not also my signed artist!

"Got it, I'll do it right away!" Tan Junyuan nodded.

So, the next day, Tan Junyuan walked directly into Alpha Records. When Jay Chou saw him, he was shocked, showing a nervous look, thinking, why did he come to the company!

At this time, Wu Zongxian came over with a smile and greeted Tan Junyuan.

"Hahaha...... Mr. Tan, you're here!"

Tan Junyuan smiled and nodded, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Wu!"

"Me too, it's nice to meet you, come on, let's talk in the office!"

Wu Zongxian enthusiastically took Tan Junyuan to his office, and after taking a seat, Tan Junyuan said: "Mr. Wu, I like to get straight to the point, so I won't go around in circles with you." I'm here to buy Alpha Records!"

"Acquisition of Alpha Records?" Wu Zongxian was shocked.

"Yes. ”

Tan Junyuan stared at the other party and said, "Williams Agent Company is willing to invest 600 million Taiwan dollars to wholly acquire Alpha Records!"

Alpha Records itself was established not long ago, and because Wu Zongxian has been busy with other affairs, this company did not have too specific business at first, until Jay Chou became popular, Alpha Records relied on Jay Chou's cash cow and gradually developed into a large company. It's just that Jay Chou's contract with Alpha Records is too harsh, and Wu Zongxian is like a capitalist who exploits the surplus value on Jay Chou as much as possible, which eventually leads to the two turning against each other.

Wu Zongxian coerced Entu to report, Jay Chou couldn't bear it, and it was inevitable to turn his face. No matter how great the kindness is, seven years of repayment is enough!

"600 million Taiwan dollars!" Wu Zongxian was taken aback, he knew in his heart that the other party could offer such a high price, it must be for Jay Chou......!

Wu Zongxian pondered at the moment, he was thinking about gains and losses, 600 million Taiwan dollars is enough to make him a wealthy man among Taiwanese artists immediately. And can Jay Chou make so much money for himself? Jay Chou's talent is fully revealed through his first album, and he may become a superstar in the future? It's really a bad decision......

Wu Zongxian raised his head and said, "Mr. Tan, I have to think about this matter for a few days before I can reply to you!"

"Haha, it's okay, I'm going to stay in Taiwan for a few days anyway, you can tell me when you're ready!" Tan Junyuan said unhurriedly, not in a hurry at all.

"Well, okay!"

Just after Tan Junyuan left Alpha Records, Wu Zongxian called Jay Chou to his office. He asked in a deep voice, "Jay, did that person look for you just now?"

"Yes, yesterday I was invited to a café to talk about things. ”

"You're going?!" Wu Zongxian's face changed.

"Go!" Jay replied.

Wu Zongxian's face sank, and he continued to ask, "What did he talk to you about?"

"Yes, but, Brother Wu Zongxian, don't worry, you have the grace of knowing me, without you Wu Zongxian would not have me Jay Chou, so, I have already rejected him!" Jay Chou saw that Wu Zongxian's face was getting more and more ugly, and quickly explained.

When Wu Zongxian heard this, his face softened slightly. He patted Jay Chou on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Okay! Don't lose me Wu Zongxian to spend money to train you! To be a man, you must first learn to be grateful, you have done a good job, don't let me down in the future!"

Jay nodded.

"Alright, Jay, you go out to work......"

"Hmm!"

After Jay Chou left, Wu Zongxian pondered alone, and after half a sound, he muttered to himself: "No, the liquidated damages for the contract signed by Jay Chou before were less than 5 million US dollars, in case he wants to change jobs, wouldn't I lose money?"

"Jay, come to my office. Wu Zongxian called and said.

"Oh, I'll be right here!"

After Jay Chou walked into the office, he asked, "Brother Wu Zongxian, do you have something to do with me?"

Wu Zongxian said with a smile: "You sit down first, I do have something to do with you." ”

After Jay Chou sat down, Wu Zongxian spoke again: "That's the case, I've redrafted a contract here, if you have no opinion, sign it!"

Jay Chou took the document handed to him by Wu Zongxian, opened it and read it carefully.

After reading it, Jay Chou blushed and was very ugly.

This document is simply a deed of sale, signed for 7 years, liquidated damages of NT$1 billion, and all the copyrights of Jay Chou's songs are owned by the company, and the income part is the same distribution ratio as ordinary singers, the company takes 7 percent, and the artist takes 3 percent.

"Brother Xian, isn't the contract too harsh? Not to mention that the contract is signed for 7 years, but the liquidated damages of NT$1 billion are not too exaggerated!"

Wu Zongxian smiled and reassured: "Hehe, the high liquidated damages mean that the company is optimistic about you and will focus on cultivating you in the future." Although the share between you and the company is also 3:7, the company will tilt more resources towards you, with the help of the company, your album will definitely sell well, and the album will sell well, and naturally you will get more money than ordinary singers!"

"How's it going, Jay, don't you still believe your brother Xian?!!"
