Chapter 337: A New Contract?
Fruit Sister Katy Perry's "Firework" is layered, allowing the listener to experience the weight brought by its structure, and at the same time making the relaxation of the main song and the spirit of the chorus very harmonious, and the chorus part is accompanied by a strong dance beat. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info And different from Sister Fruit's female singing, this song is sung by an imposing male voice, and the inspiring feeling in the song is even greater, especially in today's economic downturn in the United States, the launch of this song can arouse the passion in the hearts of the Yankees, let them regain their confidence, and believe in their American dream again.
After listening to it, Brian's heart was also infected by the song, and he was full of high fighting spirit.
"Jimmy, this song is fantastic, the kind of power that inspires people to move upwards is very strong, and I am sure that many people will enjoy it. ”
"Do you still want to listen to the following?" Li Xianhao laughed.
"Listen, of course, you have to listen, you can see from this title song that the back is definitely not too bad. Brian laughed.
Later, your song really didn't disappoint Brian.
There are several songs such as "Just~TheWay~You~Are", "California~gurls", "what~makes~you~beautiful", "As~long~as~you~Love~me", "Down", and so on.
After listening to a few songs, Brian couldn't move anymore, looking at Li Xianhao's eyes were bright, if he was a woman, he would be immediately thrown into Li Xianhao's arms and be impressed by Li Xianhao's creative ability.
After listening to the ten songs in an album, if it weren't for Li Xianhao's reminder that it was dinner time, Brian would be reluctant to leave the studio.
In the afternoon, Brian called McAlina back excitedly, praising Li Xianhao's album, saying that it would be a blockbuster.
When Li Xianhao heard Brian's praise, he still agreed with Brian's eyesight in his heart.
You know, in this album, in addition to Sister Fruit's "Firework", the Billboard Top 100 champion single, her other song "California~gurls" is also a champion single, with good results, and Brother Mars's "Just~The~Way~you~are", which is also the champion single of Billboard, and "What~makes~you~beautiful" It is a very famous song by a one-way band from Ireland, and was even sung at the closing ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics, and it also has a Chinese version of the cover song that is particularly famous, that is, "Lao Tzu's name is Zhao Ritian".
As for Bieber's "AS~long~as~you~love~me", as well as "Down" from British singer Jay Sean, they are all widely sung songs. And the remaining songs are not very famous, but the quality is not bad, there are so many popular songs in one album, I believe it will definitely have an impact on the entire music world, the most important thing is that Li Xianhao is still an Asian, and he has produced so many songs with pure European and American tastes, which is what makes Brian admire.
After hearing Brian's high praise for Li Xianhao's album, McAlina urged Li Xianhao to record the song as soon as possible, and also asked to go to Warner's top music studio to record the song to achieve the best results.
Since Li Xianhao has nothing to do recently, his plot in "Get Out, Tumor" is almost finished, and Brian's attention made Li Xianhao very moved, so Li Xianhao decided to go to the Warner Music Studio in the United States to record these songs.
After explaining the matter here, Li Xianhao and Brian immediately flew to Berkeban, the headquarters of Warner Music Group, in the United States.
Li Xianhao is a unique Asian singer in the European and American music scene today, but the songs he sings are pure European and American style, which makes him attract the love of many young people in Europe and the United States. So when the news of Li Xianhao's arrival in the United States was publicized by Warner Music, there were many fans who rarely came to pick him up, although it was not as sensational as his dispatch in South Korea, but it also reached the travel specifications of a well-known singer, and fans shouted Li Xianhao's name to welcome him out.
Fans in the European and American music industry are not like Korean fans, Korean fans treat their idols better than their parents and ancestors, and it is common for them to provide for their idols, and to give things and gifts to idols. However, although those fans in the European and American music circles are also crazy about idols, this kind of madness is not an idol for them like their ancestors, but like a close friend or lover, hoping that idols can interact with them intimately and so on, and many fans can also chat with their idols and joke with each other, just like two old friends, which may be the difference between regional culture.
Although Li Xianhao knows that European and American fans are different from Korean fans, it can be regarded as a preliminary understanding after listening to Brian's description, so in the face of those fans who like him, Li Xianhao naturally can't treat Korean fans like him.
The intimate photos with these European and American female fans on the move, and even the bold female fans kissing Li Xianhao's face like an attack, made Li Xianhao so surprised and shy, which also made those fans laugh again and again, thinking that Li Xianhao was very cute.
Among the bodyguards arranged by Warner, Li Xianhao finally walked out of the airport and got into the pick-up car arranged by Warner Music, and then headed towards the hotel where he stayed.
In the next few days, Warner began to arrange for Li Xianhao to record the songs of the album, and also arranged some press conferences for Li Xianhao to promote his album in advance.
Warner's music studio is indeed top-notch, the recording effect is very good, and during the recording, Warner Music's five music directors and eight music teachers came to watch, wanting to see how good this Asian rookie singer is, and Brian praised him so hard. After listening to the songs sung by Li Xianhao, they were all impressed by those wonderful songs, and they praised Li Xianhao one after another, and at the same time, they were full of confidence in Li Xianhao's album, and more than ten people jointly decided that this album would definitely sell well.
……
In the vice president office of Warner Music, McCarina heard that so many directors and teachers of the company praised Li Xianhao, and she was very satisfied with Li Xianhao's performance, so she specially asked Li Xianhao to come over to talk.
"Jimmy, I've heard that the songs on your album are very good, and the music directors of the company are impressed with you, it's amazing that an Asian singer can write such a beautiful and pure European and American style song. McCarina smiled, very happy. looked at Li Xianhao's eyes with a deep meaning.
"Miss Lena, I have some thoughts about this album. ”
"Well, if you have any ideas, you can put them forward, and we will definitely meet your requirements~" McCarina almost responded to Li Xianhao's request at the moment.
"I don't know if you've listened to the title song of my album, Firework......"
"Well, I've listened to it, I've listened to all the songs on your album, although my favorite is not this title song, but I have to say, this title song is really great, it will be exciting to listen to, I think this song is the most suitable to release at this moment......" McCarina naturally knows some appreciation of music, and this "Firework" is also a very good song in her opinion.
"Well, isn't the theme of this song to break through the shackles of trivial things in life, and give people the feeling of rushing out like fireworks, so its MV, I want to shoot a grand fireworks scene, and if it is filmed in some famous spots in the world, such as the Great Wall of the Heavenly (Harmony) Dynasty, such as the Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai, and in front of the Buda Palace in Budapest, the inspiring feeling expressed in the song is filmed. Li Xianhao said his request.
"No problem, these companies will help you out. Any other requirements?"
"I want to ......sing the song 'California~Gurls' with Taylor Swift," Li Xianhao asked again.
"Hey, Jimmy, tell me honestly, what the hell do you have to do with Swift??" McAlina laughed.
"Miss Lena, I really have nothing to do with Swift, I admire her, she adores me, probably this kind of relationship......" Li Xianhao smiled, not telling the truth to McCallina at all.
McCarina drank the coffee halfway through, and when she heard Li Xianhao say this, her eyes were full of disbelief, and she smiled at Li Xianhao and didn't speak.
"Okay, we'll take care of everything for you, and now, let's talk about the next contract. McCarina put down her coffee cup and said.
"Hmmm, contract? I remember, we signed the contract in July last year, my contract is for two years, and I will go to July next year......" Li Xianhao wondered, now his contract time has not yet reached a year, so early to talk about the follow-up contract?
"Jimmy, in your contract, you asked for one album a year, but now, you've released two albums, but you still have a year left on your contract, so we're going to consider signing you a follow-up contract. McCallina said.
"Oh. Li Xianhao nodded, his contract still has one year to go, and it is impossible not to release a song within this year, so let him run the itinerary announcement, right? Therefore, renewing the contract is the most likely solution, because the conditions can be renegotiated.
"I don't know, the conditions for renewal ......"
"That's right, let me probably tell you, the main thing is that there is no consensus within the company......"
"Hmm......" Li Xianhao nodded and motioned for McAlina to talk about it.
"In this way, we are ready to renew your contract with you for five years, the signing fee is 100 million US dollars, 64 shares, you take 60% and the company takes 40%, and the company does not stipulate how many albums you release during the contract period, but at least not less than one, and there must be a song that can be on the Billboard number one single...... "McAlina roughly said about Li Xianhao's contract renewal.
After hearing McCarina's account, Li Xianhao pondered.
Although the contract seems to be very tempting to many people, Li Xianhao can't look down on it at all, 100 million US dollars is nothing in his eyes, sixty-four shares, this is a little higher than his current one, you know, the price of top singers like Madonna is eighty-two shares, the company only takes two percent, and the company has to equip her with an agent to take care of affairs, like other big names are also about seventy-three points.
Of course, these are not what Li Xianhao values, he mainly thinks. It's been too long. Li Xianhao doesn't want to be limited by long-term contracts at all, although she said that there is no regulation on how many albums to release, but the company has the right to let you participate in some activities during the contract period.
"You let me go back and think about it. Li Xianhao thought about it. Only then did he say to McCarina, saying that he was considering, but in fact, it was a euphemism that he didn't like the content of the contract.
"Oh? Okay then~" McAlina is also a human spirit, and instantly understood what Li Xianhao was thinking.
