Chapter 35 Like Drinking Wind and Snow
Shuncheonfu, a hotel.
The lights are on.
At six o'clock, Wang Jingxue, Sima Duoduo and Xie Bing arrived one after another.
plus Sun Ruoxuan, who is the east, the four sisters sat down in the luxury box, drinking water and chatting.
It seems that the appointment has been made, none of the four of them brought assistants, and this private gathering also excluded the agent Sister Wu.
Moreover, Zhou Pingping did not come.
It's just that the sisters who gathered at this moment tacitly ignored this matter.
Although everyone has never asked, since the renewal of the contract has been put on the agenda, every time there is an interview from the outside world, Zhou Pingping is always the most positive one, and every time her tone is to say that she has no intention of changing jobs, and said that the company treats her sisters very well, so that the sisters who often get along day and night know very well that she has probably gotten better treatment and conditions from the company, and it seems that she is ready to stay.
It's just that...... Repeatedly expressing her views on behalf of everyone, she is inevitably a little wishful thinking.
The company should have given her quite good treatment, but it didn't give the other people the treatment that impressed her - if she continued to stay, maybe the money would not be a lot of money, but once the contract was renewed, it would be like a deed of sale.
Now Wuxing Wusu has become popular, and the sisters in the group have made no less money, but the combination of Wuxing Wusu belongs to the company, and everyone signed it is actually just a work contract. For the girls who are now in their fledgling years, who wants to continue like this?
You must know that those of them who walk in the style of youth, the golden period is especially short!
Sign for another five years, and after five years, you will be 30 years old, but you still don't have your own brand. When the time comes, the company chooses not to renew the contract, and directly changes to a few young and beautiful girls to support, what should you do?
In short, no one wants to put their future in the hands of the company.
What's more, the style of "crossing the river and demolishing the bridge" of Hua Record is now notorious in the industry!
So, seeing that the contract signed that year was about to expire. The contract on Huage's side was really not satisfactory to everyone, and after several rounds of negotiations, the other party insisted that the brand Wuxing Wusu must belong to the company, and gave each of them a share of the publication, and they also stubbornly bit 2.5%, and even the commercial performance commission refused to let go...... To put it bluntly, the company actually expects that everyone is reluctant to put aside the brand of Wuxing Wusu, which has become famous!
But in fact, all the way to the present, red has also been red. Pounced and pounced, everyone's minds have already been trained.
Red, not because of Hua Ge is popular, flutter, but because of Hua Ge.
So what else is there to shoot? If you change companies and fly solo, you may not be able to pounce and not be able to see people, right?
And taking a step back, even if it is pounced, even if it is only based on the name of the past members of the Five Elements Wusu. Where can you pounce on? It's better than staying in Huage and only five people can earn more money, right?
So, in the last month. The sisters in the group began to show their magical powers, and began to contact various record companies in Shuntianfu frequently.
And today, when Sun Ruoxuan called, she specially reminded "Don't tell the assistant", and everyone's hearts instantly became clear - the assistants around everyone at the moment are all assigned by the company, and they may not be completely towards themselves.
It was almost seven o'clock.
The girls in the room were still chatting with great interest. No one asked Sun Ruoxuan why she didn't serve the food since she was treated, and everyone was waiting patiently.
Moreover, everyone didn't even ask anyone Sun Ruoxuan who had been invited.
Outsiders don't know, but the sisters in a group, they are all very clear in their hearts - Sun Ruoxuan and Minghu Culture have been very close recently. In and out of the words, it is natural to bring out some meanings more or less.
At three past seven, there was a knock on the door, followed by a push on the door.
Seeing the person coming clearly, several girls suddenly showed an expression of "sure enough" on their faces, and then they all quickly stood up.
That's right, it's Qi Jie.
She wears a smart work dress, has short hair over the ears, and has a sincere and sweet smile.
Several people from the Five Elements have all gone to Li Qian's studio at the beginning I don't know how many times, so they naturally know each other.
Qi Jie apologized first when she entered the door: "Let everyone wait for a long time, forgive me, it's really a traffic jam!"
Everyone laughed and said, "It's okay, it's okay, we've just arrived." ”
So politely, everyone sat down, Sun Ruoxuan took the initiative to start serving, Qi Jie thanked Sun Ruoxuan, and then chatted with Wang Jingxue, Xie Bing and Sima Duoduo with a smile.
said that it was small talk, it was small talk, about the contract, Minghu culture, and even a little bit related to the circle of records, Qi Jie didn't say a word.
Everyone is about the same age, and they are all girls, so there is naturally no shortage of common topics. So, from clothes to cosmetics, to houses, cars, and even the matter of hiring a nanny, etc., chatting and chatting, everyone soon became more and more familiar.
When the food came up, because everyone drove over by themselves, they just opened a bottle of red wine, and everyone poured a cup bottom, and everyone tasted it.
After eating, the waiter changed the tea, and Qi Jie said with a smile: "In the past month, the music circle here in Shuntianfu has a bit of an undercurrent, and everyone is trying their best to grab people!
Everyone laughed, Wang Jingxue didn't speak, Xie Bing just laughed since he saw Qi Jie enter the room, and he didn't speak at this time, so Sima Duoduo had no choice but to say: "To tell you the truth, Mr. Qi, I have had a lot of contact, but we are still talking, this kind of thing is originally based on each other's sincerity, and whoever lacks a little bit can't talk about it, right?"
Qi Jie smiled and nodded, "Of course, sincerity is the most important thing!"
While speaking, she smiled: "We are all old friends, although our Minghu culture has not been established for a long time, but the cooperation between us has been a long time." The relationship between our boss and a few of you is even more needless to say. I specially asked Ruoxuan to invite a few of you over today, but I came here with sincerity, how about it. Consider our Minghu culture, right?"
When she asked, no one accosted.
Wang Jingxue and Xie Bing still didn't speak, and after a while, Sima Duoduo looked up at Sun Ruoxuan.
Seeing this, Sun Ruoxuan smiled and said, "You talk about you, I'm the one who is responsible for serving tea and pouring water! I still have to reveal a little bit, Mr. Qi told me that if I create a new group, three albums in three years, my commission will start at 5%, and the commercial performance and endorsement will be half of the combination and the company. Of course, if you can negotiate better terms, that's the best. I'll follow you too, and I'll sit on the ground and raise the price!"
Everyone laughed when they heard this.
But after laughing, Sima Duoduo still showed a hint of hesitation on his face.
First, it's because we need to build a portfolio. Since this meaning is revealed, it is obvious that if you can pull a few people from the Five Elements and Wu Su and give a new name directly, of course, you can pull the fans who originally belonged to the Five Elements Wu Su to the greatest extent. It's just that. So, who does this combination belong to? Will it end up? It's no different from staying in Huage?
Second, five percent, half of the commercial performances, this condition, compared to their treatment in the Five Elements, is naturally very high. But compared with the conditions offered by other record companies, it can only be regarded as a medium treatment.
If nothing else, at least in other record companies, she will be an independent singer who can release her own records. And the other party directly promised to give 8% of the jump, as long as you sell 1 million copies, you can get 9%!
Sima Duoduo is confident, even if she flies solo, as long as the song selection is done well, it is too good to say, one million copies, it shouldn't be too big a problem - you know, when she was in the five elements, even if it was the one that hit the street in the middle, "Let Me Fly" has sold more than two million copies!
What's more, those companies have promised that when the time comes to release a new album, the selection of songs will respect her personal wishes to the greatest extent, that is, which song to choose and which song not to choose, she can have the final say!
As for his ability to choose songs, Sima Duoduo is still very confident.
She thinks that after going through the peaks and valleys, she now has a considerable ability to judge whether a song is good or not, and whether it can be popular when it is released!
Therefore, in the face of this condition prescribed by Qi Jie...... Of course, she won't be very upset.
But at this time, without waiting for Sima Duoduo to say anything, Sun Ruoxuan suddenly said: "Ah, by the way, I forgot to say, Mr. Qi said that in the three albums in the new group, Mr. Li Qian will be asked to write at least six songs!"
With a brush, Sima Duoduo's eyes lit up.
It doesn't matter what percentage it is, what matters is that you can sell well!
Sell a million copies and get more than 8 percent? Or sell three million tickets and get more than 5 percent?
Such a simple question, naturally, everyone can understand it!
What's more, the number of album sales commissions is still a trivial matter, once it becomes popular, the follow-up commercial performances and endorsements, that is the big one!
After staying in China Records for all these years, whether it was when they were penniless, or later they became popular, they have always been driven by the company to run commercial performances everywhere, and the market situation in this area is naturally clear: if the album sells one million copies, it can only be regarded as a second-tier singer, if you take over the commercial performance, it would be good to hold up 58,000 per performance, but if it sells three million copies, if the other party does not give more than 300,000 per game, there will be no face to quote at all!
In the same way, 80,000 is all his own, and there is no more than one-third of 300,000!
Three albums, Li Qian released six songs...... To tell the truth, although Sima Duoduo was infinitely inclined to want to fly solo by himself, and he also had great confidence in his solo flight, he still hesitated unconsciously.
Because she knows very well in her heart that with this condition, it means that the newly established group will not hit the street if it is more than ninety percent sure!
On the one hand, it is unknown what the future will be on his own, but he can get the greatest freedom and become an independent singer, and on the other hand, he joined Minghu and became popular again through another group......
All of a sudden, the room fell silent.
Everyone started to drink tea one after another, as if they had tacitly left Sima Duoduo time to think.
After hesitating for a long time, Sima Duoduo smiled, raised his head and asked, "Then ...... this combination?"
When Qi Jie heard this, she put down the tea bowl without waiting for her to finish, and said directly: "It belongs to you!"
Sima Duoduo's eyes lit up again when he heard this. But at this time, Qi Jie unexpectedly continued: "But it also belongs to our Minghu culture. ”
Seeing Sima Duoduo showing a puzzled expression, Qi Jie smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, your teacher Li Qian has told me many times. He said at the end of the day, the music industry. In the art circle, what sells is talent. Therefore, it is because of people, not because of adults. One day, if you are tired of staying in Clear Lake, just go, you can get out of the house, fly solo, or create a new combination. As long as you have the strength, you can still be popular. ”
"It's like we're ready to form a new group now and have the confidence to pick her up just like we did with you. We are not going to do any propaganda on the basis that you are former members of the Five Elements and Wusu, looking for you and wanting to sign you, but we just fancy your strength and experience. ”
Speaking of which. She slowed down before she added, "We won't hold this combination in our own hands." Like Hua Ge did to you, treat you as a money-making machine. But on the other hand, we have to have checks and balances, and we will never allow you to jump to other companies in the future, when the contract expires. Because of this combination, this brand. Our strength is indispensable. Therefore, I said that once this combination is established, it belongs to both of us, and once we cannot continue to cooperate in the future. Then this brand will be dusty, and no one can use it separately from each other. ”
Qi Jie's words are reasonable, Sun Ruoxuan has obviously heard it a long time ago, so she nodded in agreement, and said with a smile: "This contract is five years, I am ready to follow Teacher Li Qian to get this one again, and then ...... Five years from now, who said it well, maybe by that time, I will be the host!"
With that, her gaze stayed on Sima Duoduo for a moment, and then turned to Xie Bing.
Sima Duoduo's hesitation, everyone could see that this was purely personal wishes and could not be forced, but since Xie Bing entered this room, he almost didn't say a word, which made Sun Ruoxuan a little puzzled.
Who in this room has the best relationship with Minghu culture?
A little outsider may think that it is Wang Jingxue, after all, there are actually many people in the circle who know that Wang Jingxue has a younger sister, who is Li Qian's woman. Even in the circle, there are some filthy gossips, saying that Wang Jingxue originally relied on sleeping with her brother-in-law to exchange for a splendid flower cluster for the five elements. But as a sister in a group, everyone understands in their hearts that Wang Jingxue's temperament is ...... Maybe Li Qian will look at her sister's sake to a certain extent and give her some face, but if you really want to say that the closest person is definitely not her.
It's Xie Bing.
Wang Jingxue's sister is Li Qian's woman, but Xie Bing herself has had an entanglement with Li Qian!
At this time, when she noticed Sun Ruoxuan's gaze, Xie Bing raised her head and smiled, her smile was sweet and clean, and then, she noticed that Qi Jie's gaze also turned around, so she wondered, "Why do you look at me like this?"
Sun Ruoxuan shrugged, Qi Jie smiled, and asked, "Bingbing, what do you think?" I just heard Duoduo ask, but I didn't hear you speak, how do you think about it, talk about it." ”
Xie Bing smiled when he heard this, "That's Mr. Li Qian's company, I don't have anything to say, no matter what the conditions, I agree." ”
Sima Duoduo turned her head to look at her in surprise, but soon, she was relieved.
Xie Bing, this girl, don't look timid, but she is very dead-eyed, she likes Li Qian, that is, she likes Li Qian, it is estimated that even if Li Qian says, I have to sell you, and then exchange some money to spend, she can smile and nod, not to mention that this is Li Qian's company signed in the past, from now on, as soon as the tip of the pen falls, she will be able to meet her Prince Charming day and night!
Therefore, her words are simply of no reference value.
So, Sima Duoduo's eyes then looked at Wang Jingxue.
Although in her opinion, Wang Jingxue is very likely to choose to agree to sign Minghu Culture, after all, her relationship with Li Qian is also quite close, so her decision is estimated to have little reference value.
But...... Anyway, you have to listen to it first.
But at this time, what she didn't expect was that Wang Jingxue noticed everyone's eyes, but she just smiled reluctantly, and then looked at herself, and said slowly: "Duoduo, you go over, go over there, and Xiaoice, if the three of you form a new group, it is a good thing, I believe that Li Qian will not be able to treat you badly! As for me, I have already contacted the record company, and I will probably sign a contract with them when the day comes, after the contract with Hua Ge is automatically terminated." ”
Speaking of this, she turned her head to look at Qi Jie and said apologetically: "I'm sorry Mr. Qi, I'm afraid, we can't cooperate." ”
Qi Jie was a little surprised.
Before coming, frankly speaking, whether it was her, Sun Meimei, and Sun Ruoxuan, who was in charge of matchmaking, in fact, no one considered Wang Jingxue's matter...... This is obvious, how can the sister-in-law of her own boss go to another company?
However, I didn't expect that Xie Bing could agree without thinking about it, Sima Duoduo hesitated, but it seemed that persuasion could almost be won, but only Wang Jingxue, the only one who was the most effortless in everyone's opinion, actually announced directly: There is no need to talk!
At this moment, even Qi Jie was a little caught off guard.
Twisting her fingers, she nodded slowly, laughed, and said, "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then I won't say more." As she spoke, she picked up the teacup and said, "Borrow this cup of water, and wish you a bright future." In addition, Minghu Culture welcomes you at any time!"
Wang Jingxue lowered her head and was silent for a moment.
Then, she raised her head, smiled, and reached out to pick up the cup, with a tenderness in her eyes that was rarely seen on weekdays.
"Ding" sound.
I touched Qi Jie. Then she threw her head back and drank it all.
It's like drinking the snow.
